I absolutely love Nutella! Whenever I get a craving for chocolate (which is often as I have a sweet tooth), I eat a spoonful of Nutella. It's definitely a healthier alternative to regular milk chocolate. I also love to use it in baking- especially cookies. I also love to put a dollop of it in my peanut butter sandwich- it tastes really good! -

I received the GOT2B Fresh It Up Tropical Boost Dry Shampoo for free as a part of the ChickAdvisor Review Club. This product has a very pleasant tropical scent which is nice to have in a dry shampoo so that it will keep your hair smelling nice. This dry shampoo does leave a bit of a white cast, so if you have dark hair just be aware of that. Fortunately, this product did not change the texture of my hair too much (I have used some dry shampoos in the past that made my hair feel stiff/coarse and difficult to style). One of my main requirements in a dry shampoo is that it diminishes my greasy/oily hair, as my hair tends to get greasy very easily. I am glad that this dry shampoo did do that, however I did need to use quite a bit of the product to get rid of the oils in my hair. I also like dry shampoos to add volume to my hair and this product did add a little bit of volume to my hair, though not as much as other products that I have used.
Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a decent dry shampoo. Again if you are looking for a volumizing dry shampoo, then this one might not be the one for you. However, if you just want to get rid of grease and refresh your hair a bit, then I would try this one out.

A sample of the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream was provided to me for free as part of the ChickAdvisor review club. This product is very moisturizing without being greasy or sticky (the finish is very similar to the sunscreen from the Hydro Boost line). The gel cream seeps right into the skin instead of leaving a thick layer on the surface. I have dry and sensitive skin and the gel cream left my skin feeling moisturized for a long period of time. I like wearing this in the daytime because it isn’t too heavy on the skin and it leaves my skin feeling smooth throughout the day. Unfortunately, this product has the same scent as the Neutrogena Hydro Boost gel sunscreen. It might just be a personal preference, but I’m not crazy about the scent. The good thing is that the scent is not as strong in this product as it is in the sunscreen. This gel cream retails for $19.97 for 47ml. This is a little pricey considering how much product you get, but a little bit of product does go a long way.
I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a lightweight moisturizer that will not leave your skin feeling greasy/sticky.

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Sunscreen SPF 50

I received the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Sunscreen SPF 50 for free as part of the ChickAdvisor review club. This product impressed me because it isn’t greasy or sticky like some sunscreens can tend to be and yet it was still moisturizing. For this reason, this is a great sunscreen to wear under make-up. The sunscreen that I was using previously on my face was a little on the greasy side and that changed the way my foundation looked when it was supposed to have a matte finish. The texture of this sunscreen is a little on the watery side but it blends into the skin seamlessly. One of the downsides of this product is its strong scent (and it does last for awhile), but it doesn’t bother me to the point where I can’t wear it. The quality of this product far supercedes its strong scent. The other downside for some may be the price as it retails for $15.99 for only 88ml.
Overall, I would recommend this product to those looking for a sunscreen that will moisturize their skin without leaving a greasy/sticky residue. As I mentioned earlier, this is a great sunscreen to wear under make-up. If you have any sensitivity to scents, this might not be the sunscreen for you because the scent does not fade away.

NEUTROGENA® All-in-One Make-Up Removing Cleansing Wipes

I received the Neutrogena all-in-one make-up removing cleansing wipes for free to review for the ChickAdvisor review club program. I have used many different brands when it comes to make-up removing wipes because I like using them to remove the majority of my make-up before I use my regular face cleansers. The Neutrogena all-in-one make-up removing cleansing wipes removed more make-up than many of the other brands that I have used. It didn’t tug on my skin like some tend to do (the cloth is soft and smooth) and it removed really stubborn waterproof make-up. However, one wipe did not completely remove my make-up in one go, so I had to use 2 of them to remove everything (but with other brands I usually have to use more wipes). These wipes have a strong scent to them so if you are sensitive to scents this may not be the product for you, but I actually really like the scent. This product is a little more pricey as you only get 7 wipes in one pack for $3.00. I have found other brands that offer way more wipes for that value, however these wipes are better in quality.
Overall, I would recommend this product to those of you who also like to use wipes as your first step in removing make-up (especially stubborn make-up). As long as you aren’t sensitive to scents and don’t mind paying a little more, these wipes are amazing!

I received the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Sensitive as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club (#gotitfree) and I must say that I was initially confused as to what this product was for because it doesn't really mention that it is a moisturizer anywhere on the package. Despite the confusing packaging, this product surprised me with just how moisturizing it actually was. I have pretty dry and sensitive skin and the moisturizers that usually work well for me tend to be on the greasy side. This product moisturizes without leaving your skin feeling greasy and it kept my skin moisturized for awhile, whereas other products tend to leave my skin moisturized for only a short period of time. This moisturizer has no scent so if you have any sensitivities to scents that will not be a problem for you.
Overall, this is a great product for those of us who have dry and sensitive skin. Just ignore the confusing packaging and try it out as you will be pleasantly surprised.

The Aveeno eczema care itch relief balm was provided to me for free to review for the ChickAdvisor product review club. I have struggled with eczema since I was a kid and as most individuals with eczema know, most lotions/creams (especially scented products) tend to either aggravate eczema or not be sufficient in moisturizing and getting rid of itchy skin. I often use the Aveeno eczema moisturizing lotion because it is the only moisturizer that helps with my eczema symptoms, so I was excited to try this Aveeno eczema itch relief balm. After using this product for a week or so, I have to say that this product did not let me down. It soothes the itchiness right away and also provides moisture for a long period of time. The texture was a little surprising at first (the texture is thick kind of like Vaseline) because I am so used to the Aveeno moisturizer. The product tugs at the skin when you first put it on but once you rub the product into your skin it is very moisturizing and helps to calm the eczema symptoms. I noticed a difference in my skin after a few days. My hands were not as dry and itchy and it helped soothe the areas where I had broken skin. This product has no scent so if you are sensitive to scents you don't have to worry about that. You get 311g in the jar which should last you some time as a little bit of product goes a long way.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who suffers from eczema (as well as the Aveeno eczema moisturizer for when you're on-the-go). As I mentioned earlier, it feels weird when you first put it on due to its thickness, but you will notice a difference in your skin after a few days/weeks. I have to say that no other products compare to Aveeno when it comes to eczema care and I am so glad that I discovered their eczema line a few years back. I get severe symptoms of eczema because I have eczema on my hands and I wash my hands a lot, and as we know water tends to aggravate eczema. I put Aveeno on as soon as my hands start to get dry/itchy and that helps me manage my symptoms. This is a great product for those of us who suffer from eczema!

I received the Rubbermaid FreshWorks Produce Saver for free as part of the ChickAdvisor review club. I have to say that I absolutely love it! I rely heavily on containers because I like to organize and pre-plan snacks/meals and I also like to prep for cooking in advance by having ingredients cut and ready to go. I decided to test this container out with both fruits (strawberries) and veggies (broccoli) and placed the same items in two different containers. I was surprised because the items in the Rubbermaid FreshWorks Produce Saver stayed fresh longer than the items in the other container. I'm not sure how they did it but it's pretty impressive. I will definitely be purchasing more of these containers and I also recommend this product to anyone who uses containers to organize snacks/meals and/or keep leftovers in the fridge. -

I got to try the Ben & Jerry's non-dairy dessert in the PB & Cookies flavour for free from the ChickAdvisor review club. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised because I had tried another flavour (coffee) from the non-dairy line before this one and I didn't really like it. The PB & Cookies, on the other hand, was really yummy. It has a good balance of peanut butter so that the flavour isn't too overwhelming. The only thing I was missing was the creaminess that I love from other ice-creams/frozen desserts. With that being said, taking into account that this product does not have any dairy in it, it still managed to have a bit of creaminess in it, which is impressive. I would recommend this product to anyone who likes peanut butter and cookies and doesn't mind their frozen dessert being less creamy. -
