I received this product from Chickadvisor as a part of a two-piece Garnier set.
I absolutely LOVE the feel of this product on my face. I don't think I'll be able to go back to other moisturizers after trying this hydra-gel. While I did not find it brightened my skin and made me look as anti-fatigued as the claims of the product made it seem it could, I am very happy with the results. My face DOES look smoother after using the product and a bit brighter, making me look more alert and 'fresh-faced'. Even if this product didn't perform moderately well in terms of brightening the look of my skin, I would still be happy with the product because of how it feels when I apply it to my face. it is an excellent moisturizer and definitely a good-quality product.

I was lucky enough to receive this product from ChickAdvisor!
Prior to receiving this product, I was not aware of 'cleansing water' and was a tad sceptical of its effectiveness because it really does resemble water and doesn't have any scent at all (of chemicals that I usually ascribe to the products effectiveness). I was quite surprised at how well it worked! I poured some on a cotton swab and wiped my cheek and all my makeup in that area effortlessly wiped off. I do wear quite a bit of makeup so I will continue to use makeup remover cloths because I would go through quite a bit of this product to remove all my makeup but I love using it after I use makeup remover wipes because I find it manages to remove even more makeup (that I didn't realize was still on my face!). It really speaks to this product's ability to draw out dirt and makeup from my face, while being really gentle on my skin. I'll definitely look for this product in stores once I run out!

I received a sample of this product at Sephora and was initially really happy with it. It is a very unique product that you put on your face dry, which dissolves it into an oil that helps your makeup 'melt off'. After a couple days of use though I developed small, under the skin bumps right under my eyes. When I stopped using the product the bumps eventually went away and did not come back (though it took about a full week).
So, effective product but be careful if you have sensitive skin! Considering the retail cost of the product, I don't think it is worth the risk as there are many other cleansing products that work just as well.

Sun Rype Slim 10 Juices
I originally bought this juice to use as a smoothie base but it was so good I often end up drinking a glass by itself. My favourite is the Tropical Mango! I look forward to trying the rest of the flavours in this line.

I tried these recently and loved them! From what I know, it is a very different concept and one executed very well by McCain. I do not typically favour this general shape of potato product because I find the wider/flatter types are not as crispy as I prefer. However, the cut of these fries offer a perfect balance because the holes thin the fries and allow for them to get quite crispy! They're a great alternative if/when you get tired of regular frozen fries. They cook perfectly as well, which is nice because sometimes I find these types of products (that have very thin areas) cook quicker than their thicker parts and become overcooked and too crispy. -

These are not my personal favourite of the McCain line potato products, but I often make them as a quick side when serving dinner to friends and family and they are always a hit. These ARE spicy, but not so much that they require you to keep a glass of water by your side; they just add a nice kick and are balanced nicely with ketchup.
I've bought a few different brands of wedge potatoes but I always hear how this exact brand and flavour is favoured/preferred by those I serve it to so I continue to buy them and often have them in my freezer.

I am not a huge fan of french fries, but I do crave them occasionally and always opt for frozen ones because they are much less fattening/unhealthy than fast food fries. These ones are by far my favourite; I've tried many others and do sometimes opt out of this kind to try something new, but I always come back. They are so crispy and flavourful and I've yet to find a similar product that can compete. The spiral shape also satisfies the kid in me. :P -

These were my favourite frozen potato-type products growing up. While I don't consume them very often any more (I've opted for other McCain potato products) I have such great memories of fun dinners or breakfasts dipping these in ketchup with family and friends. The fact that a simple food product can help create lifelong memories is amazing and for that alone, I still love this product!
I also like how crispy they are on the outside, yet still fluffy on the inside; my take is that the potatoes used are of great quality and freshness, which induces much confidence in buying McCain products and is also impressive considering the low cost of this product.

I love these as a quick side to dinner. I like potato products and these are fun and unique take on eating them. Growing up I loved the McCain Smiles as well as these... these ones became a permanent food staple in my home.
What I particularly like about these products are the sizes of the taters. They are perfect as a filling snack or (as mentioned) a side because the portion of each tater is small, but can be substantial depending upon how many you make and consume.
As a health conscious person, I also love how these bake crispy but are not overly oily and fattening... a french fry fix without all the unhealthy fats!

This is my favourite sugar substitute. As others have said, it is more costly than others, but that is because of the quality and taste. It doesn't leave a chemical-type aftertaste in your mouth and does not react weirdly when used in baking or hot drinks. It is definitely worth the cost. -
