I enjoyed the feel of this lotion as it was very easy to absorb into my skin and didn't feel greasy at all. The formula is very hydrating, which makes it perfect for when my skin gets super dry. After just one use, it felt rejuvenated and soft. The smell was also quite pleasant. The only reason I gave it a rating of 4 is because it does include parabens, otherwise, it would be perfect. -

I'm not too impressed with this conditioning treatment. The scent wasn't at all pleasant for my taste. It smelled like a mixture of olive oil and some weird chemical. It's not too overwhelming, but it's not something I want my hair smelling like either. It also contains parabens, which goes against their "natural" claim.
The conditioner is meant to be used as a mask treatment but since I have fine hair, I used it as a regular conditioner instead. I noticed that if I applied it to the roots and scalp, it left my hair feeling oily once I dried it. Therefore, I could only use this on my ends and only a dime size amount. The other thing I didn't like is that the product comes packaged in a packet much like the ones shampoo samples come in, which you have to cut open. It's convenient for a one time use but for those who want to use it multiple times, it can become messy to try and squeeze out the conditioner while you're washing your hair. They should consider bottling the product instead, which will probably make it more cost efficient than having to purchase individual packets every time. The only advantage I can see with purchasing these packet formats, is if you'll be travelling.
Although it left my ends soft and manageable, I will not be purchasing this again, especially not in this scent. There are also better conditioning treatments that are more natural than this claims to be.

I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. The Becel salted sticks are very convenient to use, seeing as they are premeasured and already softened, making them the right choice for baking or cooking, in general. The taste is not too salty and I did feel like I didn't have to add too much extra salt to the meal because this already gave it some flavour. It spread very easily on toast and I also used it to grease pans when baking in the oven. No need to wait for it to get soft at room temperature, therefore it saves time in the kitchen. I will be purchasing this again in the future and hope to try the unsalted variety, as well. -

I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. I really enjoyed how versatile this oil was. I used it in both savoury and sweet recipes and they all turned out great. It has a light flavour so it doesn't impact or compete with the end result too much. I also appreciate that it has a high smoking point, which made frying foods easy and it also didn't make my food smell heavily fried either. This had avocado oil blended in, with the added benefits of Omega 3, which is something that would attract me into buying it, as a consumer. However, I would have preferred a different oil other than canola, for health purposes. With that being said, if I ever need to purchase a canola oil in the future, I would probably opt for this blend, instead of just a regular canola oil. It's good, overall. -

I find these Snapea Crisps to be tasty and not too salty for my liking. I appreciate that they are a source of fibre and less fatty than potato chips, but I do think they should still be considered in the same family as potato chips and not purely peas. I wouldn't be opposed to purchasing them again, as they are pleasant and light to eat, however, healthwise, I'd rather stick to eating actual peas and getting unprocessed nutrients there. -

I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. I've tried other makeup wipes in the past, but after trying the Neutrogena All-in-One Cleansing Wipes, these are now my favorite. I used one wipe (front and back) to remove lightly applied makeup. I did need two for heavier makeup, but the end result was a clean, refreshed looking face. The wipes removed the makeup gently without the need to rub over and over again. Waterproof mascara took a little more effort but eventually came off. I did apply a toner with a cotton pad afterwards and noticed that there wasn't any residue left so these cloths really do the job of cleansing your skin. I like how soft the cloth felt against the skin and did not irritate it. The cloths themselves are of a good size, however, I would like a better way of sealing the packaging, as the resealable sticker eventually curls up and opens, making it possible for the cloths to dry out. Other than that, great product. I'll definitely purchase these again, especially when I need to travel. -

I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. This Neutrogena gel cream is a very interesting product. It's a face moisturizer, without really feeling like your typical moisturizer. What I mean by this is that as soon as you rub the gel onto your skin, it instantly disappears. My skin did not have any dampness or tackiness afterwards, like typical moisturizers will do. This makes the Neutrogena gel cream perfect for applying before makeup. There is no wait time for your skin to dry, therefore it's great for when you're in a rush and need to apply makeup quickly. It did keep my skin feeling soft and got rid of some minor dry patches. The scent is very light, almost unnoticeable, so it's great for people sensitive to scents. It's on the expensive side for a drugstore moisturizer (almost $20) so I'm not sure if I'll make it a regular repurchase. I will keep it in mind, though, as being a great product and if the occasion fits, I wouldn't mind using it again. -

I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. I'm so thrilled that Neutrogena has a sunscreen with top SPF 50 protection that also smells pleasant, not like the typical sunscreens out there that smell, well, like sunscreen. The scent is light and fresh, almost floral and it's not too overpowering. The texture of the sunscreen itself is a mix of cream and gel. It comes out of the tube white but as you rub it on, it becomes clear and absorbs very quickly. No thick, white streaks here. My skin felt soft after applying and not tacky or sticky. It actually reminds me of a moisturizer and not a sunscreen. It's a sunscreen I'm actually looking forward to wearing every day ever since I got it. In the past, sunscreens have been like a chore to wear but this whole formula makes wearing it a pleasant experience. I'll definitely purchase this once I run out and am probably going to make it my go-to sunscreen from now on. -

I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. The most noticeable thing about this body wash is definitely the scent. It's amazing and I couldn't stop smelling my arm after I showered, so for that alone, I do think this body wash is worthy of purchasing. I liked the way lathered and rinsed it off very easily. My skin felt very clean afterwards but I would improve it in terms of how well it hydrates, as I didn't really notice any difference with that. I still enjoyed the experience though, and wouldn't mind purchasing it again if it's on sale. -

I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club. This is a great conditioner that pairs very well with the volumizing shampoo of the same brand. It has an amazing scent that lingers, which is something I don't often find in shampoos or conditioners. It applies very easily and rinses well. I also like how it doesn't weigh down my hair and makes it more manageable when brushing. In the past, I could only apply conditioner to the ends on my hair because if I applied it also to the crown of my head, I would eventually get greasy hair. Not with this conditioner! My hair still looked pretty decent on the third day, therefore, it has prolonged the time I need to wash it. I will definitely purchase this once I run out, without a doubt! The only thing I would improve is adding a pump to dispense the conditioner. -
