I am a big fan of Scmidt's deodorants, and this one is new to me. I like that it's made for sensitive skin, which basically means it has no baking soda that a big number of natural deodorants contain. This is particularly important after shaving - my skin gets easily irritated from shaving, and I always avoid baking soda in deodorants for this reason. This one didn't cause any irritation. I like the scent - it's natural and earthy, but not too heavy. It's on the thin line between a unisex and a feminine fragrance, but I can see it being used by men, especially the ones that don't like the typical men's deodorants. I sweat a lot (hormonal sweats that can get stinky, sorry for tmi), so for me this deodorant is effective for 3-4 hours before I need to rinse off and reapply, which is comparable to other high quality natural deodorants. Rinsing off is a very important step - I find that natural deodorants can't be reapplied over sweaty skin, so I always wash the area with soap before reapplying (sorry, again tmi maybe?). From my experience with deodorants, I can definitely recommend this one.
The only thing that irritates me is the hemp seed oil. They literally had to add to the label that the product contains no cbd or thc. So was it really necessary to even use hemp seed oil (except because it's so popular these days)?

I was so happy when I was chosen to test this flavour with my little one, since raspberries are one of my favourite fruits, and she likes them a lot, too. Since she doesn't talk much yet, I was happy to finish off one cup, and it was really tasty I love that it's not sweet - there is some sweetness, but these cups are mostly tart. The raspberry flavour is really noticeable. That being said, some kids may not like them because of the tartness. My little toddler still didn't try overly sweet foods, so she really enjoyed this snack. I find it was a nice treat after lunch or dinner, or as addition to a savoury breakfast (like eggs). I like that there are 2g of fibre in every cup, which is important for my LO, and no added sugar (please note though, there is still quite a lot of sugar, so I consider these a snack). I really love that they partnered with Breakfast Club of Canada (buy a cup, give a cup), because no child should ever go hungry. Ever. I'd keep buying these just for that reason. -
Batiste Waterless Cleansing Foam with Almond Oil

I have to say I quite liked this product, but it's really different from the Batiste dry shampoo, so you shouldn't expect the same results. I find that this foam is better for the second day after hair washing (compared to the dry shampoo that I use on the third day). It provides quite a lot of volume, but only gently cleanses. It feels wet going on, but my hair dried quickly, and the scent is really lovely. Unlike dry shampoo, this is not sprayed on and leaves no white residue, and my hair doesn't feel too dry the next day. There is room for this foam along with a dry shampoo in my cabinet - they both serve a similar, yet different purpose. -
Premier Protein Chocolate Shake

I loved the taste of this protein drink. It's yummy, not too sweet and there is no powdery aftertaste that some protein drinks have. The best of all - these babies have whopping 30 g of protein with ONLY 1 g of sugar. This is a great meal replacement shake if you find yourself skipping a meal (it happens to most mums I know, including myself). I can highly recommend it, and I'm switching from my usual brand to this one. -

This caramel shake is a welcome flavour, since most protein drinks on the market are chocolate, vanilla or strawberry flavoured. It has a hint of a caramel taste (I expected a bit more). The best of all - this drink has whopping 30 g of protein with ONLY 1 g of sugar. Since I find most protein drinks too sweet, I am so happy I got to try this one, as they are my new favourite meal replacement drink now. If you need something on the go like me, try these shakes! -

Like I said in the title - if you like cranberry taste, you have to try this ginger ale. It's the perfect blend of ginger and cranberry, not too sweet, not too tart. It's perfect on its own, but with a few fresh cranberries added it looks fancy and has an even more refreshing taste. If this stays available year-round, I might just replace my original ginger ale with this one. -

I've been hoping to find a good deodorant I can buy at my grocery store, and this Dove 0% aluminum deodorant actually works for me! I've tried so many deodorants that don't work that I've been losing hope, and this is THE ONE!!! I will be stocking up for sure and trying other scents, too! It goes on clear, feels good on my skin, it doesn't make me itchy, I didn't notice any white marks on my clothes yet, and most importantly, it keeps me smelling nice for the entire day! -

I will start off by saying that we're huge fans of Canada Dry original Ginger Ale, and there is always some in our fridge. However, we rarely try special flavours, so I'm glad we got this chance to try the Lemonade flavoured one for free. This Ginger Ale is great, refreshing, not too sweet and perfectly sparkly. I wouldn't call it a lemonade flavoured one, because surprisingly I can taste more ginger in this one than in the original, and I can't taste the lemon flavour as much as I expected. I prefer the original one over this one, but I still like it enough to give it 5 start. My husband said he didn't notice any difference between the two, though.
I received the product for free for testing, but the opinions are mine and honest.

This cream is a life saver! It is thick, but sinks in surprisingly well. It does leave a bit of a greasy film, so I definitely recommend using it at night, as recommended. I only needed this much moisturization on my legs and feet, and that will make the jar last for a long time. I also tried it on my hands, and it works really well for them, too. The product is unscented and has virtually no scent at all once applied. -

I really love this lotion! I've used it daily after my morning shower, and it provides enough moisture until the next day. It doesn't work well on rougher areas like knees and feet, but I always use additional products on those areas anyways. As someone with very dry skin I'm happy to have found a product that really works. Also, this lotion is unscented, but doesn't have that off-putting smell that most unscented products have. Once on the skin, it just has no smell at all, which is great for me, since I'm currently breastfeeding (babies don't like when moms change their scent). I love the pump bottle, too, and the large top that makes it easy to handle it with one hand. I will definitely purchase this again. -
