I love #Godiva coffee! They have great flavours and you can really taste the quality in every drop!! I only wish they'd make Godiva #espresso and coffee creamer as well! I would recommend just trying the product on its own first to taste the product itself, then add your own 'accoutrements' thereafter. A downside would be the price in Canada, as it can get quite $$ for a single bag of coffee. -

I rarely give 'rave reviews' to products, except when they deserve the praise - This is definitely one of those products!! I love the entire Oribe line for its high quality ingredients, overall effectiveness, and even the attention to detail in the fragrances of their products!
This nourishing oil is so luxurious, but not greasy, and leaves a long-lasting silky look and feel! I love it!
The only downside is the price...$70 for 3.4 ounces is STEEP, but it does go a long way, and worth the 'investment.' If you're in Canada, here's a little 'secret' - It's available online at Beauty Sense for about $40!! That's a steal!! Give it a try!

I LOVE chocolate milk and love trying out new products. I've seen the Joyya brand in many stores so I thought I'd try it out. The taste is quite sweet given the sucralose content, but not a rich chocolate taste that I would expect. It's more of a 'fake' chocolate taste. They tout a "2% Chocolate dairy beverage, 75% more protein and 50% less sugar than regular chocolate milk." I can't speak to their claims although I can say that this doesn't taste like 'typical' chocolate milk, and it is definitely sweet. There are so many options out there right now for everyone to try, and for almost $5/L in Canada, I'd probably choose another. -

Pat McGrath is a legendary makeup artist and her line of makeup is exceptional! It does come with a pricetag, but this is one line that's definitely worth it! The lipgloss colour choices are dazzling, sparkly and whimsical! I love them! They do also have a line of 'typical' shades of lipstick, lipglosses etc, but this line pushes the boundaries and lets you explore the whimsy and beauty of makeup. Give it a try! -

I received this product courtesy of #ChickAdvisor and I love trying new products! I was confused as to the nature of this product, as the line is known for anti #acne relief, yet this is touted as a moisturizer and lotion. Although I do not have severe or active acne, I tried this product, and ultimately, I could not notice a significant different in my skin, either for acne or even moisturization. I'm not sure what they're trying to 'sell' however I know that many #acne meds are quite harsh on the skin (and internally just an fyi - consult with your MD). However, I wouldn't recommend this product. -
COVERGIRL Peacock Flare Mascara

As we all know, when it comes to #mascara it's all about the brush! I've tried many mascaras in all price points, and really, some of the best I've tried have been from department stores rather than the overly priced mascaras on the market. This one is a great buy for it's value - I look for mascaras that provide length, volume and coverage, and are long-lasting. This one definitely does the trick. It comes off nicely with makeup removers, or soap & water, which is a sell for me, as many waterproof mascaras as so difficult to take off.
Give it a try!

I've been a lover of #Shreddies cereal for decades, and what I love even more is that they change and adapt with the times, and concoct new recipes and products! The #BananaBread flavour is fantastic, as is another flavour I recently tried, the #BrownSugar and #Granola - Yum!! It's a great healthy breakfast, but to be honest, I eat #cereal all day long!! -

I've tried several cheesecakes and cakes from the Dr. Oetker brand, and to be honest, I'm not impressed. None of these have tasted like actual cheesecakes, or even cakes. The cheesecakes have a graham crust which isn't particularly sweet and doesn't hold together. The cheesecake filling doesn't taste like cheesecake, and the toppings, salted caramel and the mixed berry, don't taste like either of these things. It's just an odd combination and poorly thought out recipes. These are NOT cheesecakes. I also tried the brownie chocolate cake, and it too was not appealing.
To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of many of the products in this brand - They are just not 'authentic' and feel processed and manufactured. I've read about the history of 'Dr. Oetker' who was a pharmacist, not a physician/MD, and not a chef.
The brand and advertising are just so confusing. Their products aren't novel, and certainly don't live up to the 'standards' of what we would expect.

Kraft Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa
I will be up front in saying that I am a lover of all things Nutella, and although I've tried many 'imitators' there hasn't been a single one that could ever outdo the original. This Kraft Hazelnut Spread is great in and of itself, with a great... +
I will be up front in saying that I am a lover of all things Nutella, and although I've tried many 'imitators' there hasn't been a single one that could ever outdo the original. This Kraft Hazelnut Spread is great in and of itself, with a great hazelnut and chocolate flavour, although in comparison, it's simply not as smooth and creamy. If you look at the ingredient list, there are subtle differences, but these are the very differences that set Nutella apart. This one is worth a try though!! -
