Voortman Bakery Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies are a delectable experience.
For an oatmeal cookie, these cookies are not what you would expect. I don't taste much of the oatmeal and I taste more of just a plain chocolate chip cookie. They are very crispy and not soft and gooey in texture, but I enjoy the crispiness. They are fantastic with a cold glass of milk. I would definitely recommend these to a friend and purchase them (#gotitfree with chickadvisor). The only problem is I have to stop myself from eating the whole bag!

Voortman Bakery Coconut cookies are one tough cookie.
I was very excited to try these cookies as I love the taste of coconut. These cookies did have a decent, satisfactory coconut taste, however the texture was very disappointing for me. The best word I can think of to describe the texture is tough. It is very difficult to take a bite out of one of these cookies and a jaw workout to chew through them. I would prefer a softer or even a crunchier texture. These cookies are pretty decent when soaked in milk or hot tea/coffee. However, this is not enough to make me want to purchase them (#gotitfree through chickadvisor) and I would not recommend these to a friend.

Voortman Bakery Vanilla Wafers are the way vanilla wafers should be.
These vanilla wafers are everything I would hope a vanilla wafer to be. With a strong vanilla flavor and sweetness that delights and tickles the taste buds encased by a crunchy yet dainty crispy exterior that almost melts in your mouth as you chew it-- I am delighted! I would definitely purchase these wafers (even though I #gotitfree with chickadvisor) and recommend to my friends to try out with some tea or coffee.
The only negative remark I have about these wafers is the packaging. They do not come organized in a plastic tray like most cookies do and are instead just placed inside the plastic over-wrap, which means you must very carefully open the packaging and cautiously remove the first wafer to avoid getting crumbs everywhere.

Voortman Bakery Strawberry Banana Wafers are not my favorite.
I just tried the strawberry banana flavored wafers with some apprehension. After trying a wafer, I was rightfully cautious. I do not like the taste of banana flavored candy or cookies at all, so I was nervous to taste these. These wafers are not exception. The strawberry flavor is nice but is overpowered by the strong fake banana taste. It reminds me of banana yogurt. I would not purchase these wafers (#gotitfree through chickadvisor) and I would only recommend them to friends who enjoy the artificial banana taste. Overall, they are not horrible wafers, I just personally do not enjoy the banana taste.
One other complaint I have is the packaging. It is a mess. The wafers do not come in a plastic tray inside the plastic over-wrap like most cookies do and instead are just inside the plastic over-wrap. They are very crumbly and crumbs spilled out everywhere when I removed the first wafer from the packaging to try.

I was lucky enough to receive this product free of charge to review as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. I was so happy when I found out I was chosen because I had heard a lot about this much anticipated mascara. Cover Girl Lash Blast Length is packaged in a thin yellow tube (completely opposite from Lash Blast in the fat orange tube) and contains an appropriate thin but long and bristled brush as yet again opposed to Lash Blast fatter and shorter brush.
The first time trying this product I found I did not like that the brush does not taper to a fine point at the end as other mascaras do. I have a hard time reaching my inner corner lashes and with this it was no easier. This product does deliver length to the lashes, as supposed to, but I find I like my usual Maybelline Define-A-Lash better. I think it is the brush in Define-a-Lash that I prefer over lash blast length. But to be honest no one was able to tell the difference if I was wearing a new mascara or not. The formula for Lash blast length is also dryer than define-a-lash, which produces a much glossier finish.
So my advice is if you are looking for a new mascara, lash blast length is a nice one to try out, but if you have trouble maneuvering a long brush about your eyes maybe go for original lash blast. I wouldn't go out and buy this mascara just because it is new to the market and promises great length. Stick with your usual mascara.

his is perhaps the BEST foundation I've used to date. My old favorite was Max Factor's Colour Adapt which was unfortunately discontinued, and I am convinced these two are the same product. They ingredients are almost IDENTICAL and the two smell the same. I have also found my perfect shade, Classic Ivory. I am about an NC20 in mac and the color is match is excellent. I can understand how this might now work with oily skin or acne prone skin, which probably accounts for the lower ratings on here, as it is very thick and creamy and full coverage. But once applied, i just use my fingers and only a small amount is needed, my skin is literally glowing! The coverage covers up all redness in my skin and any imperfection at all. I am in love love love with this :) and I've tried 'em all. I've tried MAC, MUFE HD, Lancome Colour Ideal, Revlon, Maybelline, Bare Minerals, the new Max Factor and many more and I must say this one is hands down perfection! -

This by far the most effective and easiest eye makeup remover I've ever used! Just shake it up and pour a little onto a cotton pad and then a couple swipes over the eye and presto! All your makeup is gone! This doesn't irritate my sensitive skin/eyelids and actually soothes them. I definitely recommend this to ANY skin type and ANY eye makeup that needs removing! -

If you like the thickening spray which has been discontinued I recommend trying this stuff. It's got the same ingredients so it really is the same product. It works very well on volumizing my roots but I have to be careful and not apply too much as it can get kind of sticky and hard on my hair. -

This product is the same EXACT thing as the L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Gelee. You can even compare the ingredients! The first 8 are EXACTLY the same (same order and everything) the ingredients after that are only different because they have different scents and colors. It is the first few ingredients that really matter in product performance, and these two have exactly the same ergo they perform the same! Save yourself a lot of cash and try out the L'Oreal one first. The two are even manufactured by the same company.. -
