This hand cream surprised me - not only is it fragrance and paraben free, but for being a heavier lotion it isn't greasy or oily. I was able to put it on and still had enough grip to open a jar of pickles! It also made my skin feel moisturized and softer. -

I love a good gin and tonic, and because of the simplicity of the drink, quality ingredients really matter. This tonic water is very fresh and crisp. It's not as bitter as some tonic waters, making it easily drinkable just on its own over ice or with a splash of lime. -

I was pleasantly surprised by this toothpaste. I've used Arm & Hammer toothpaste off and on, and found this one to be a fast favourite. It has a pleasant flavour, made my teeth feel clean, and my breath was fresher in the morning than with other commercial toothpaste brands. -
I found this toothpaste had a milder flavour than I expected, but it was quite pleasant. It made my teeth feel smooth and clean, and didn't give me bad breath in the morning like some toothpastes do. I would definitely purchase this again!

I tested this out for three weeks, and found it had a nice effect on my skin but it took some time to get there. Within a few days it made my skin feel a bit like I had a very mild sunburn, and within the first week I had a few dry, flaky patches of skin on my cheeks. By the second week my skin was feeling softer and had a nice glow. But I don't see any noticeable difference in my pre-existing wrinkles and creases. Then again, I don't believe any topical cream other than Retin-A can have a dramatic effect in such a short span of time. I did like how it made my skin look and feel in the end though, so I would continue using it now that my skin is used to it. Also, despite being labeled as fragrance free, it does have a mild scent, but it's not perfumey, which I appreciate. -

I bought two of these Revlon Colorstay Moisture Stains when they were being discontinued. The packaging is nice although the plastic gets scratched up over time. While one that I bought has a nice smooth texture, the other one seems more watery/separated. I'm also not a fan of the smell, sort of alcohol/paint/glue. Revlon products are usually pretty good but this one was definitely not a favourite of mine. -

I finally made my first Colourpop purchase which included two Super Shock eye shadows. I just thought they were highly pigmented shadows, I didn't realize they are more like a cream eye shadow. I absolutely love them, they go on like a dream and are so easy to use, especially if you're just learning eye shadow application. Now I wish I had bought more colours! -

I bought this palette through the Nyx website so I didn't know how true the colours would be in person. The shades were very true to what they showed on their website and blend really nicely. The blush shades are all very pretty and wearable too. My only complaint is that the sparkle in a few of the eye shadow shades don't really show up on the eye, and the highlighters aren't very vibrant and glowy, they are a bit on the dull chalky side. Otherwise I love the eyeshadows and how they all complement each other. -

I've tried aluminum-free deodorants before, but they often didn't hold up well. I tested this product through 30-degree days, riding my bike to a food festival, stressful work meetings and exercising. It performed excellently, and never failed once. I was really impressed that it held up as well as it did. I would definitely purchase this once I'm in need of a replacement! -

We bought this Sodastream tonic because we ran out of their regular tonic syrup and this looked like a gourmet version. Unfortunately it has no tonic flavour, its just a sweet syrup without the distinctive bitter tonic note. It also needs to be refrigerated after opening. If you don't like the flavour of tonic this is probably a fine syrup for gin based cocktails, but if you love tonic stick with their regular line or just buy tonic water. -
