I get cold sores, especially in the winter. So when I found out I would be receiving this complimentary/free for reviewing purposes, I was very excited. As a beauty blogger, I am wearing different makeup products daily, so I need something that is going to work into my daily routine flawlessly. This does work with some products, and not with others. For myself, this on its own is fine. Once paired with some products though it changes how they wear, which for me is a big issue. It caused some of my Longwear lipsticks to not wear as well, ball up or crack. The taste itself wasn't horrible, what I would expect from an "ointment type product. I would have preferred it in a balm stick for easier application, but it isn't too bad this way. I also don't like the idea of applying something all the time, for a cold sore I get maybe once every two months or so. I understand it's a preventative, and would be better maybe for someone that gets them more often maybe, but for myself I don't think it would be worth it in value for a "possible" break out. -

I have rather thin, blond lashes. If I don't wear mascara I look like I don't have any. The issue with my lashes is that almost every mascara I have used will either make then clump, or heavy.
So far the only thing I didn't particularly like with this mascara is that it is rather wet, it is one of the wettest mascaras I've used. Now this is something that I quickly got used to, but the first time I used it i wasn't expecting it.
I am now using it every day, and I really like it. It separates my lashes nicely, doesn't clump, lasts all day, and leaves them looking long and beautiful.

I use protein bars on a regular basis, so receiving these free for reviewing purposes was something I was really excited about. Was... Until I had one. I'm not going to say it was absolutely horrible, but the taste just wasn't there. I was not only the taste though, it was a textural thing too. For me this just isn't one I would add to the ones I use. I would not recommend. -

I am a regular gym goer, so I was very happy to be receiving these free for reviewing. I was even happier to know that they were reduced sugar, because I am extremely careful about my intake. I'm going to be honest, I've had a lot of different protein bars, and ya the tastes can be up and down, but these ones were by far my least favourite. I just really didn't like them. They weren't horrible, but they are not something I could see myself getting regularly. I could barely taste the peanut butter at all, and the chocolate was very chalky. That are ok nutritional wise, I'm happy that the sugar intake is lower. Overall though this is not a bar I personally will be adding to my roster. -
NIVEA Q10 Firming Body Lotion

I'm am always skeptical when I comes to something that saves it is "firming". So when I found out I was going to receive this for free for reviewing purposes, I was interested to see if I would like it. I will say as a lotion, I absolutely adore it. I use it all the time, especially for my legs and arms. So far I am really loving how it leaves my skin feel smooth, and very hydrated. When it comes to the firming.... I'm going to be honest, I haven't noticed a difference at all. -

I was really excited to find out if find out I would be receiving this for reviewing purposes. I have extremely dry hands, and as I age they are starting to show it. As a busy mom, who also works full time, I am constantly using my hands. I am always washing them, and using hand sanitizer on a regular basis as well. I use this every night before bed, and keep it on hand throughout the day as well. So far I am really liking it. I really do not like hand creams that leave my hands feeling greasy, or a filmy residue. So far this one leaves my hands feeling smooth and moisturized, and I can get right back to what I was doing after rubbing it in. I'm liking it so much I have gotten some for my mom as well. I highly recommend. -

I am a huge fan of body oils, so I was really excited to try this free to review. I normally apply oils right out of the shower and found that it definitely isn't as greasy as I was expecting. I have been using it head to toe, and a little definitely goes a long way. It doesnt take too long to soak in, and I didn't find that it left a film or overly greasy feeling behind once it was dry. My skin felt very soak and smooth. I was not expecting a miracle right off the bat, I waited to hold off my opinion until I had used the product for a full two weeks. So far I am really liking how it leaves my skin felling very moisturized and soft. I've had two kids, and to be honest I'm not sure it has made a huge difference on my stretch marks, maybe a little, but nothing drastic, I will definitely keep using it though. -

Out of the two flavours, this one is my youngest daughter's favourite. She just can't get enough of them. They are a great on the go snack for when we are out and about, and perfect for my older daughters lunches for school. They are much healthier then some other ones on the market, definitely not as great as fresh fruit, but a great alternative. -

My oldest is sometimes picky when it comes to what I put in her school lunches. So any way that I can sneak in a little fruit and fibre is a win win for me. Compared to some other fruit cups, these are much healthier, not as healthy as straight up fruit, but a nice alternative. Both of my girls love the flavours and eat their little cups clean. -

I have always been a fan of Hellmann's, the flavour is by far the best of those on the market. I'm not one for change, so I wasn't sure we were going to like the organic formula. We have been trying to be more conscious about what we eat so I was definitely interested in trying this. So far the whole family is loving this just as much as the original formula. We have used it in all the same ways as the original formula and it tastes just as great. -
