I LOVE Fresh lip balms/tints because they provide a little bit of colour and gleam, but without the stickiness of lipgloss or the difficulty of getting lipstick on smoothly. These products are so easy to just apply like regular lip balms and depending upon the amount of pressure you place, you can create a darker lip colour.
Specifically, this 'beauty box' is a great way to try Fresh's most popular sugar lip balms without the hefty cost of $29 per product (though these ones are smaller than the regular sized ones, they last awhile!). Most of the colours are warm red/burgundy tints with one that is like honey/caramel and another that is their clear 'original' balm.

I bought this palette on a whim and I'm so glad that I did! The warm shades are perfect for autumn/winter and look great with so many makeup looks - the shades allow for classic looks as well as darker/'going out' looks. The product goes on smoothly and not too dark, but can be built if desired. I also find the colours are great to blend so you can create more than the six shades in the palette. -

I was fortunate enough to try this free from Chick Advisor!
I am so excited about the effects of this mascara because I have trouble finding mascara products that don't clump my lashes together or make them look stringy and wild. I found this product enhanced each individual lash and gave them more 'oomph' in terms of length, volume and a little curl. I find this product is most effective with 1-2 light coats as the product is thick and too much of it makes it look like I have a few huge, dark lashes. Otherwise, it does wonders and builds long lashes without flaking!
Also because this product is so rich in colour it makes my eyes pop because of how prominently black my lashes are - a great and unexpected perk of this mascara. I have never tried Lancome mascara before, but this product has certainly piqued my interest into the brand's other mascaras. So I would definitely consider this product again as well as other Lancome products.

I received this product for free from Chickadvisor to review. Out of the two flavours of bars I was sent (the other being Peanut butter chocolate) this was my least favourite because I found it to be much too sweet. Lemon poppyseed are usually great flavours together so I appreciate the combination, but the flavours were not executed well for me. The white chocolate shell was incredibly sweet and combined with the lemon-flavoured centre, it was too much. While the shell provides most of the sweetness, the lemon brings it out more, or too much in this case.
I did like the texture of this bar - I found it softer than the other flavour and it made it seem more indulgent. So, this bar definitely has potential and I would try it again if it was 'improved', but unfortunately it was just a little too overpowering for my taste.

I was fortunate enough to be sent this bar for free from Chickadvisor. I'm not typically a big fan of peanut butter flavoured protein bars, but this was pretty good! I like that it had a chocolatey coating and was soft and chewy without being really dry and grainy. It does have a bit of chalky like texture, but that is common amongst most protein bars so I don't find it takes away from the taste at all. It did have a strong (but not overpowering) peanut flavour that combined well with the sweet chocolate shell. I really did feel like I was eating a tasty snack bar and not a protein filled, meal replacement type product. I'm not sure I would buy this specific flavour again but I would look for this line/bar in a different flavour because I was pleased with it! -

I love this product! It really has an 'everything bagel' taste and you can see the sesame seeds, poppyseeds and other spices throughout the wrap. It adds a lot of flavour when making event the simplest wrap as it packs a lot of flavour. Definitely my favourite Flatout product and a great alternative to a heavy, dense, calorie-rich bagel. It's incredibly versatile, but I love the taste of this product with cream cheese. -
Flatout Flatbread- Multi-grain with flax

I LOVE Flatout products! They are so tasty and have a tad more nutrition than other wrap-type bread products. I love the flavour of flax in this product, which adds a bit more depth to the wrap and the flavour of whatever sort of wrap you make with it. I also love how soft and fluffy the wrap is in spite of it being a multi-grain/flax product, which usually makes for a dense bread. They're a great shape for making wraps and are study and don't fall apart, even with the addition of a lot of sauce. -

I love eating these as candy! When I purchase them with the intent of eating them as mints, they never last. I love the texture and flavour of mentos. The fruit flavoured ones are definitely closer to being a candy than a mint and I also love how the mint flavoured mentos are on the sweeter side, rather than being hot. -

This is a perfectly sized and tasty snack that I eat to satisfy sweet cravings and/or to follow meals. I love the blend of apple and blueberry flavours - mild but complimentary (though with the flavour of apple slightly overpowering that of blueberry). I also love that it is unsweetened - I find it sweet enough without added sugar and it shaves off quite a few calories as well. I've tried most other flavours of Mott's unsweetened applesauce and this is a top contender for me. -

I loved frozen treats and this is a really unique popsicle-type product. I love the texture of Melona popsicles because they are on the creamy side, rather than just icy. What I really enjoy about this flavour is that it is a perfect balance of sweetness and flavour - it is not overwhelmingly sugary/sweet and does not have a strong artificial flavour (or colour). These popsicles are a standout for me and I would likely purchase them over most other brands/types if they were more widely available. -
