This toner claims to remove makeup residue and I can definitely attest that it does! After I dispense a bit of the toner to a cotton pad and apply all over my face, sometimes I can see a little bit of makeup residue that wasn't totally washed off from the cleanser on the cotton pad. My skin feels refreshed and clean. I especially like that this toner does not contain alcohol and does not dry out my skin after usage. While the price is higher than drug store brands, it is reasonably priced for a derm product, so I would recommend this to anyone that wants to have skin that feels clean and fresh. It is also suitable for sensitive skin as it is gentle on the skin. -

I have always liked the Vichy brand, so I was excited to try this cleanser out. I like that it uses thermal water so the cleanser automatically seems to be more "pure." The cleanser was very effective in cleansing my skin, without drying it at all. It also has a pleasant smell, kind of like a clean, refreshing scent. It felt very slippery but actually lathers quite well once you massage it either on your palm. I usually remove most of my makeup first before using this, so I am not sure how effective it is at removing a full face of makeup. However, it does take off some of the makeup remaining on my face. All in all, a great product from Vichy and I would definitely recommend this cleanser! -

I was surprised by how easy it was to apply this mask. It was very spreadable and almost like a cream consistency. One feature I really enjoyed was how cool and refreshing my skin felt from the aloe and mint. The mask was very gentle and did not leave my skin tight or dry after usage. However, it was perhaps a little too gentle as I did not feel that it helped with drying up minor breakouts. I would recommend this for clear skin maintenance but not quite effective with blemishes.

Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert

When I first got this, I was initially put off with how small it was, but after eating a few bites, I realized how dense this was. Unlike other reviews, I thought it had a very strong almond flavour, which is not a bad thing as I like almonds. I also love cherries, so this flavour was delicious and the fudge chips gave it texture. I can see myself eating this as a treat, as it is longer in calories and fat than traditional ice cream. I also don't enjoy eating ice cream due to the dairy taste and because I'm slightly lactose intolerant, so this dessert is perfect for me. Although it is pricier than what I usually purchase, I actually might purchase it again because it is delicious and better for you. It lasted me about 5 servings.

Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer with SPF 30

I like that this moisturizer is oil-free with SPF 30 for everyday wear. It lives up to its claim in that it nourishes and strengthens dry skin, but what I really can't get over is the weird smell, almost like a plastic smell. The smell does go away after 15-30 minutes. I also prefer a gel moisturizer over a cream, so while this was a good moisturizer, it wasn't the perfect one for me.

When I received this cleanser, I was excited to try it as it is supposed to be very gentle for sensitive skin. What I love about this is that it is hypoallergenic and fragrance-free, so it will not irritate my skin. It claims to be multi-action and even removes makeup; I haven't tried washing makeup off my face with this cleanser yet so I cannot comment on that. However, as an everyday cleanser, this is effective and my skin feels great after cleansing.

I had this as a snack to tide me over to my next meal and it was surprisingly filling. I thought it would be less filling than other higher protein bars, but this was quite satisfying. I loved the pronounced caramel flavour in this bar; it was flavourful but not too sweet. Another thing I love about this protein bar is how nutritious it is as it is all plant-based and contains no artificial sweeteners. It tastes like a delicious granola bar, but much more nutritious and healthier.

I was excited to try another product from PowerBar again. This one tasted delicious and I was really pleased that it was all plant protein, vegan, non GMO, and made with no artificial sweeteners. The flavours work really well and I love anything with almond in it. It also filled me up until when I had it as part of a breakfast. The only wish I have for this product is that it contained more protein! -

While I usually like the taste of chocolate protein powders better, this vanilla flavour was surprisingly delicious as well. However, it was a little bit sweeter than I would have liked, due to the artificial sweeteners in this. I was really impressed with the macros more than anything. I could've believe there were 30 grams of protein packed into this shake! I have never seen a protein shake with this much protein before, especially since it was so smooth and did not taste chalky at all. I will definitely purchase this again and will recommend it to my friends and family. -

When I received this in the mail, I wasn't sure what to expect. When I read the macros, I was amazed at how great it was- high protein, and lower fat and carbs than most protein powders I have seen in the market. This is a bodybuilder's dream! I am by no means a bodybuilder, but I was in love with this product already. Then, I tasted it and loved it even more. It tastes exactly like chocolate milk, with no grittiness to it. It kept me feeling full for longer due to the protein. I drank it after a workout and my body seemed to be less sore the next day. I will definitely be purchasing more of it in the future and have already recommended this product to friends!
