This is a very nice primer to use along with the Nude by Nature powder.
I tried the makeup with this primer, my usual primer, and without primer, and I liked the look of the makeup best using its own special primer. I found that if my moisturizer or primer was any bit wet or oily, it worked against the application of the makeup. This primer absorbs easily into the skin and helps the makeup wear better and last longer on the skin. I also really liked the scent of this product.. it's a fresh scent, almost grassy, but hard to describe. The only thing I like better with my usual primer is that it reduces the look of pores more than this one.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to try the Nude by Nature line, to pick up on this primer as well.

Pure Leaf™ Ginger with Orange Blossom pyramid tea bags
I really love herbal teas and this one it no exception. It had a lovely aroma from the orange blossom, and the tea itself is not too spicy from the ginger. The longer you steep, the more pronounced the ginger flavour gets. I normally dont let it the tea bag sit too long, but I found I could leave the bag in mug as I drank, and the last few sips were noticeably spicier. I liked the pyramid shape of the tea bag, and liked how fine the mesh was, as no particles passed through.
Overall, I really liked this tea, and would definitely repurchase and try other flavours.

Pure Leaf Pure Matcha tea sachets
I was excited to try this one out, as I've never had matcha before. I wanted to try it because I have heard how good it is for you, and is very high in antioxidants. I like to drink my coffee, teas etc, without dairy and sweeteners, so drinking this plain was a little difficult for me. I found that it has a very earthy, "seaweed-ish" aroma to it that found hard to get around, even though it just tasted like regular tea. With sugar it was a little better, and with the addition of milk even more so. My preferred way was to dissolve it in a bit of hot water, and add steamed almond milk and honey. It tasted like a normal tea latte, and the earthy aroma was definitely muted this way.
Overall, I did like it. I would repurchase it for the health benefits of matcha tea, but would drink whenever I wanted a sweet treat. I would also recommend it to friends and family who are tea lovers.

I was really excited to try Aveeno Eczema Care Itch Relief Balm because I have a lot of redness and dry skin. The balm itself is very moisturizing. It is a thick consistency, kind of like a thick cream and petroleum jelly mixed together, but it is non-greasy. I used it on the back of my hands because they tend to get red and crack in the cold winter air, and it was very healing. It was also very effective on any patches I got on my body that tend to get red and flaky.
I tried it on my face because I have bad eczema around my chin and unfortunately it did not work. After a few days it was really flaring up and spreading so I had to switch back to my usual products, and mixing in some tea tree oil which helped to calm it down. Its been 2 weeks and the area still looks scarred from the flare up. Im not sure if it was due to the cold weather, the change in my skincare, or if it was bound to flare up but it was not effective on my face. I cant really blame this balm for it because I have found it has been hit or miss whether products work for me or not. I found the balm to be very healing otherwise, and would recommend it for people with mild eczema, or for someone looking for an amazing moisturizer.
Value: 5/5 - It can be expensive but you do get a huge tub for $20. The price is comparable to other eczema products and a little goes a long way with this one.
Quality: 5/5 - I think the quality is very nice for a balm. It is thick and moisturizing and non-greasy.
Effectiveness: 4/5 - I had mixed results with this product, so I think the effectiveness can vary from person to person, depending on their skin condition.
I received a jar of Aveeno Eczema Care Itch Relief Balm from @chickadvisor to evaluate in exchange for my honest review. #gotitfree #tryaveenoeczema

I was sent CND Vinylux Top Coat for free in order to test and review.
Even though my "weekly polish" began to chip after 2 days, I really did like this brand and top coat as well. The top coat made the polish look very shiny and did help protect it somewhat from chips as well. I have used other top coats from other leading brands and some actually cause the colour to peel entirely off the nail. I feel like this one held up fairly well, even if it did fall short of its 7 day promise.
I would probably repurchase this top coat once this bottle runs out, and definitely recommend it to friends to try.

I was sent the CND Vinylux Weekly polish in the shade TROPIX to test out and provide my honest review.
I've been wearing it for the past week, and now on day 7, I'd say it's pretty chipped! I'm sad that it didnt last the entire week BUT what I did love about this polish was that it did apply evenly with 2 coats, the brush shape made it really easy to put on, and best of all it had an amazingly fast drying time.
It did give me a good 2 days without chips, and I will probably go out and buy maybe a red and nude shade for special occasions so I can do my nails and not have to worry about them nicking or chipping for that day.

This is a very nice laundry detergent with no dyes, synthetic fragrances, or artificial brighteners. It did a good job on washing linens, and left the laundry smelling fresh and clean. I would definitely recommend this detergent to anyone with skin sensitivites.
Ordering from the website was very easy, although I wish more products were available to choose from. Currently they deliver within the GTA for $5.99+tax, or for free when you are spending over $40. My order arrived the next day and was well packaged; liquid products were in a plastic zip bag, in case of leaks. I think being able to order online is very convenient, especially for busy moms or people with mobility issues, or to purchase products that might be hard to find in stores.

The Premier Protein Vanilla Shake is a great way to boost your protein intake after workouts!
The shakes are high in protein, vitamins, minerals, and calcium, and low in sugar and calories. I like that it has a smooth texture and comes in a recloseable container to take on the go as well. My only dislike is that has a strong artificial sweetener taste, and its overly sweet as well. I found this more in the vanilla flavour than the chocolate.
I would, however, recommend this to anyone looking for shake with a high protein content.
