I was fortunate enough to try this as part of the product review club.
I found the formula a little too runny for my liking. I prefer a bit more solid so it goes on a more even application. The scent wasn't overpowering which was nice. The first time I tried this I was going to the beach so I didn't put foundation or face powder over top. Without makeup over top it left a bit of a slight white tinge to my face. About after an hour of being in the sun my t-zone started to get really oily.
When I wore it with powder the next day I didn't have the same issue with an oily t-zone. My makeup went on smooth over top and it felt effective as a sunscreen. I wish it had more moisture to it because it did make my skin feel a little dry.
It's a bit pricey for the size of the product you receive, probably not something I would continue to purchase to use on a daily basis.

I had the chance to try this through the product review club. The mascara went on smoothly and made my lashes long and thicker although not as thick as I would have liked. The brush was decent but not as great as some others. It did a fairly well job of seperating my lashes.
Overall for the price this is a great mascara and i'll definitely be using it in the future.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this mascara! It made my short and stumpy lashes long and thicker. It was definitely more dramatic than my average mascaras and didn't clump my eyelashes together. The only complaint I have is that it tended to flake a bit more than my average mascara however this is my #1 choice now for mascara when i'm going out. -

I found this to work the same as regular vim. The scent was not bad though although I would have preferred it to have less of a chemical lemony smell. It worked really well on cleaning soap scum however on some things such as faucets I found it to leave a bit of a thin film.
Fantastic when it comes to cleaning ceramic though!

I received this in the mail as part of the product review club. My first impression was that the concept is unique and I haven't seen anything quite like it. At first I was pretty skeptical because how much of a difference are some rubber scrubbers going to make.
First time I tried it I found it a bit difficult to control the amount of cleanser that comes out and to get just the right amount. In this situation regular cleansers that you squeeze out in your hand are much easier.
When I got the right amount it worked up into a pretty good lather. It gave my skin a slight tingling feeling with the scrubbers. After using it for about a week I noticed my pores were slightly smaller, especially around my nose area which has always been my trouble spot.
Normally cleansers always dry out my skin and this one did not overly dry it out. The scent was nice and not too powerful.
I would definitely suggest using this and i'll be purchasing another when I run out!

This DVD definitely kicks your butt at first! I had always done cardio on a regular basis but I could definitely feel the burn doing this DVD.
Jillian keeps you motivated throughout the workout and after doing it for even just a few days, you feel the moves becoming easier. I bought this on Amazon and it was worth every penny. The first time around I lost 9 pounds in a month combined with healthy eating.
You want to make sure you have an adequate amount of room to do the exercises and have a pair of handweights. I started with 3lbs and worked up to 5lbs.

This deodorant felt weird going on and the power stripe felt rough and scratchy at times. It definitely did not go on smooth like most deodorants. I found myself needing to reapply another time throughout the day which I never had to do with other deodorants.
This one got thrown out after 2 weeks as it wasn't worth it.

COVERGIRL LashBlast Volume Mascara
I love this mascara! It makes my wimpy lashes darker and longer. The mascara doesn't clump when you apply it and one coat does the job for me. Great price and the wand makes it easy for application.

Clean & Clear Soft Skincare Night Moisturizer
I found this lotion made my skin smooth and moisturized for the first few hours but then it seemed to wear off. Made my nose more oily. The smell is nice and the lotion feels light.

My daughter would get eczema when the weather would get really cold. Sometimes it got to the point of having to use steroid creams which I hated to use. I would feel horrible when she would get patches on her face. I was at London Drugs and noticed this lotion. I love aveeno products for myself so I thought why not might as well give it a shot. I am so happy that I did.
This lotion absorbs quickly into the skin and cleared up her eczema within 3 days. I was amazed by the results. It's a great price and definitely does the job. Works much better than most eczema lotions.
