I have long hair & knew with 1 single lightening box that I couldn't lighten my full hair/do ombre. I chose to finish as highlights/streaks. Also, I chose to do highlights/streaks since my hair is a stubborn black that has not held colour well in the past - hoping I'd have enough product to lighten the hair sections properly. I'm grateful the box came with gloves because prior to use, I accidentally touched the mixture & it irritated my fingers, which were swollen a little after. My hair falls almost below my chest & I probably sectioned off too much hair as highlights considering my length. First, I lightened my highlight sections using the Be-Enligtened Heavenly Blonde before applying the colour. I had too many highlights so didn't use enough of the lightener on each strand. Because of this, the Electric Blue didn't dye my hair strands as vibrantly as I hoped for in some sections. The end result gave be deep tones of peacock feather colour hair, in some parts blue, teal, green & some gold. I was hoping for proper "electric" blue highlights but will probably buy this product to use it properly with less hair sections. There was a heavy chemical smell during lightening application & a little milder smell left over after rinsing. I didn't mind the smell of the actual colour. Good way to play around with hair colour! Regardless, I love the end result!! Thank you for letting me try!! -

I loved the colour style suggestions the box gave. I have long hair & knew with 1 single box colour, I couldn't colour my full hair/do ombre. I chose to finish as highlights/streaks. The box came with 1 tube of colour in Let's Get Creative - Electric Blue, instructions, brush, tray, gloves, conditioning creme & pastelerizer. Since my hair is a stubborn black that has not held colour well in the past, I chose not to use the pastelerizer. The Electric Blue is very vibrant & beautiful out of the tube. I'm grateful the box came with gloves, brush & tray which I used. My hair falls almost below my chest & I probably sectioned off too much hair as highlights considering my length.

I was hoping for proper "electric" blue highlights but will probably buy this product to use it properly with less hair sections. The colour does transfer onto skin & other items. I wish there was more colour product & the tube was bigger. Regardless, I love the end result!! Thank you for letting me try!! -

I really liked this red. It came just in time for the holiday season. It is a sparkly red, with subtle glitter. The consistency was good, not clumpy/runny. It applied on great with an easy to use applicator. I used 2 coats. I should've let it dry longer, with 1 base coat & 2 colour coats, before applying my top coat, since it scratched on a few fingers. Touch ups are easy with this polish, it's almost unnoticeable. The shine is great with the little sparkles inside. Thanks for letting me try it! -
CND CREATIVE PLAY Base Coat

I normally use clear base coats but I saw the benefit of using a nude toned base coat. The nude tone gave a bolder hue when the main colour nail polish is applied. The consistency was good, not too clumpy/runny. The applicator was easy to use & didn't leave harsh streaks of uneven application. There is the normal chemical smell that comes with majority nail polishes. I only used 1 coat of the base coat & then the main polish. My nails weren't stained when I took the polish off with remover which may happen with other base coats & especially a red main colour. It kept my polish on for a few days without natural cracks/chips. Thanks for letting me try! -

This top coat is great, it's clear & the consistency is good - not clumpy/runny. It gave great shine & I only needed 1 coat. It dries in a reasonable amount of time. It does have a typical nail polish chemical smell which is the only thing I didn't like, but that's normal with majority nail products. It helped prevent chipped/scraped polish. The applicator brush was easy to use & didn't leave heavy streaks. Between applying the polish & top coat, I scratched the polish on a few fingers, once I put the top coat on, the scratches were invisible. I'd recommend this to others. Thanks for letting me try! -

I was excited to receive this Premier Protein sample. In addition to a workout snack/drink, sometimes on busy days when I don't have time to prep breakfast, I like to reach for a protein drink. Although I prefer the chocolate flavour over the vanilla, I've tried the vanilla Premier protein sample as a workout snack & as a breakfast supplement. I'm glad I did because I saw the benefits of the product. It calmed my hunger down just enough to keep me going till my next meal. The taste was too much on the sweeter side but that's common with most protein drinks.The texture & after taste of the drinks were not bad & more than tolerable; the texture didn't feel too heavy or watery. It goes down pretty smooth. There was no heavy scent thankfully, since heavy scents in protein drinks turn me off. The colour was normal too, no weird shades. After trying the sample, it kept my energy levels steady. I would definitely recommend Premier Protein to family & friends, at work, at the gym & in general social life. Thanks for letting me try the product! It's a great pick me up! -

I'm happy to receive this Nivea Q10 Firming Body Oil as I do have stretch marks. It felt smooth & light on my skin. I've tried only a 1/2 body oils in the past & have not liked those. However, I will be buying another bottle after this is done & would recommend it to anyone looking to firm their skin, get rid of stretch marks & looking to hydrate. It doesn't feel heavy & absorbed well into my skin, didn't have to rub for too long. Thank you for letting me try the NIVEA Q10 Firming Body Oil ChickAdvisor & Nivea! -
