I bought a 3 pack for myself and my family when we all of our lips were a little dry before Christmas. Since then we've all been using this lip balm regularly and we all love it!
It helped with our dryness almost immediately and has kept it at bay for the past few cold months. My school aged daughter usually has dry cracked lips most of the winter but this year she didn't.
I also like the ingredients and the care Burt's Bees takes towards sustainability. I will re-buy this lip balm for sure and I'm going to try out their other products!

Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair® Retinol Oil

This is a great retinol oil! It works the same as higher priced ones and produces the same results.
Occasionally these serums break my skin out but this one doesn't so I was able to give it a good try. After a few weeks of use my skin feels softer and smoother. I don't notice a huge difference in my fine lines but at 40 yrs old it's nice to not be getting any more so that's a huge bonus!

Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Prep Cleanser

While I would recommend this cleanser to anyone specifically looking for an exfoliating cleanser, I wouldn't recommend it as a daily cleanser. It just seems a bit much to use every day.
The first day I used it was lovely, but by day 3 in a row, it felt a bit much for my skin. I've been using it a few times a week since and this works much better.
It's not overly grainy but it still was a bit much for my semi-sensitive skin.
One great thing is that a little goes a long way so this product will last quite a while - even if you are using it often.

Canada Dry Lemonade Flavoured Ginger Ale
If you're looking for something to spice up your ginger ale a bit this is it! I liked that the lemon wasn't too overpowering and it just added a nice fresh flavor to the ginger ale. I don't know that I'd drink this all the time - since ginger ale... +
If you're looking for something to spice up your ginger ale a bit this is it! I liked that the lemon wasn't too overpowering and it just added a nice fresh flavor to the ginger ale.
I don't know that I'd drink this all the time - since ginger ale isn't my favorite drink. But I'd totally drink it again and if you like ginger ale you should definitely try it.

Vichy Liftactiv Supreme for Normal-Combination Skin

I #gotitfree from ChickAdvisor and my skin was still a bit dry from the winter so I thought it would be great. It was a bit thick for me and I started to get small bumps on my chin (common for me - it means I've overmoisturized) so I had to stop using it.
I am now using it up on my hands and it is nice for them - but this product is a little expensive to use to moisturize my hands.

Boy was I wrong. This serum has made my skin glow, clear up, and feel so soft! I am totally going to continue buying this in the future! Like seriously, even my husband noticed my glow - and he rarely notices anything haha!!

I have used the John Frieda blonde products for a few years now - I believe I first tried them through ChickAdvisor ;) And I was so excited to try this product!
I received it late so I've only had the chance to try it twice, but I love it. It makes my hair damaged hair a bit softer - and definitely less frizzy.

Wow is nutella ever good! It is loaded with sugar so you very likely shouldn't use it on your morning toast - at least not every day. But as a treat, or spread on your Sunday pancakes this is a little piece of heaven. The combination of hazlenut and chocolate is super decadent and neither overpowers the other - but instead creates a totally yummy blend. -

I REALLY liked this bread! It was soft and fresh, and although it was whole wheat it didn't really have that overly dark wheat-y taste. My entire family happily ate sandwiches and toast using this bread. The slices seemed a bit thicker to me than the bread I usually buy - but I still got more bang for my buck with this loaf. I have already bought it again! -

I'm so not sure what to say about this product...it was a bit strange to use and it felt a bit 'grippy' on my hair. It sure didn't do miracles on my hair...however it may have helped to thicken my hair a bit - it's hard to tell since it would only be a little if it did. I have some left so I will finish it off - but I'm still undecided if I will buy more. -
