I have used St. Ives products for many years now in different forms. The face scrub is my favorite product they make, my face feels really clean and soft each time I use it. I use a scrub once a week on my face and it really seems to make a difference in my skin tone and cleans my pores really well.
I could do with another scent, the scent of this is not really my cup of tea, but I can put up with it because it is so effective.
It's also a really good price, compare it to other scrubs and you will be surprised at the price some other brands charge for a product that is really no better at all.
Good product, good price. Can't really go wrong with St. Ives.

I really like the TRESemme Heat Tamer spray. I have tried a couple other brands but continue to go back to this one. The spray is nice and light, smells nice and never leaves a film or makes my hair sticky in any way.
I use this on damp hair after washing and before styling but I also use it on dry hair on the days I don't wash my hair, it works just as well on wet or dry hair and especially when using heat to style dry hair you absolutely need some kind of protectant or you will damage your hair and totally dry it out.
Great stuff, will continue to use, oh and you really can't beat the price!

Q-Tip brand cotton swabs are worth every penny spent on them. I have tried "name" brands as recently as last month with the same result every time, the cheaper brand although better priced always falls apart, I have seen some swabs actually have the cotton slide right off them leaving only the stick without even using it yet.
This is scary when you think that you use these to clean your ears out, that cotton could very well slide off inside your ear when cleaning and then you are heading to the doctors to have it removed!
Other cheaper products are just not worth it, not in any way shape or form.
Pay the extra small amount and stick with the Q-Tip brand so you know you are dealing with high quality swabs that you never have to worry about.
There is no other brand for me, and I won't waste my money trying anything else, ever!

I received these bars to test for Chic Advisor. I was really looking forward to the chocolate fudge taste.
I did enjoy the bars but found them very filling, I could only get down half a bar for lunch and ended up eating the rest as a late night snack, well meal really.
They did taste good but are very thick and not much for soft and chewy, more dense than anything else. They packed a lot of ingredients in there, and tightly I might add.
I did however find that they kept me feeling full for a long while. So they did what they said they would do, they replaced a meal.
I will likely purchase these just not on a regular basis.

Where to start, I had high hopes for the Adrien Gagnon Super Energex ampoules.
I did what it said, mixed one ampoule with a half a bottle of water, was not expecting what happened next. The water then turned an iodine brown color...ewww, then when I went to drink it, oh my, I could barely get it past my nose, it smelled so awful and I do mean awful, it is supposed to be orange flavoured?? I did end up drinking the entire thing just because I wanted to see if it would actually do anything. It was extremely tough going down, tasted horrid and by the last few swallows I had to hold my nose to drink it.
And to make matters worse, I could not get that taste out of my mouth, I had to brush my teeth and gargle 3 times and I could still taste it.
With that said, I waited for it to "kick" in, but alas it never did. I felt absolutely no different after drinking this putrid stuff then I did before I drank it.
Sorry but I gave away the rest of the ampoules to people at the gym, because I certainly wasn't going to use another one.
Very disappointed in this product, glad I was able to try it before you buy it.

The price is a little high for a small cake but I buy it as a treat or when its on sale, still worth it even full price.

These are one of the better make up remover wipes out there. It is very refreshing, and easy to use, although a little sensitive on my eyes. It doesn't get all the make up off, mascara in particular, but I have a liquid remover specifically for eyes that I use.
The facial makeup is totally removed and my skin feels rejuvenated and clean. This is a regular part of my bedtime routine since I wear makeup pretty much everyday.
Really nice wipes, even though they are a little pricey but you are paying for the high quality.

These are a normal grocery item when shopping and will continue to be.

I received this product for review from the Chick Advisor product review club.
I really, really like this product! It feels amazing on my skin, it's super easy to apply, you don't need much and it spreads over your entire face and neck. So this bottle should last me a while.
I like the subtle scent, its very nice and smells of clean to me.
The gel seems to sink right into my skin without a lot of rubbing, which is good, because rubbing is not good for your skin.
I did notice I didn't look quite as tired and stressed as I normally do, so it does what it says it will do.
It just feels high end to me, very impressed!
