Phillips Norelco Shaver 3500


Here is another product that I was able to try for free because of  BzzAgent and Phillips Norelco.

After several uses I am definitely a fan of this shaver. In taking it out of the box I instantly loved how lightweight it was. I never realized how heavy my previous shaver was until I held this one. The shaver seemed to charge fairly quick and after a few weeks of use I still have yet to recharge it. This makes it extremely handy for trips because you do not have to pack the charger. This shaver is also very quiet compared to other shavers that I have had in the past. The shaver also has a nice feel to it in my hands. It does not feel bulky or odd. I do like that the shaver can be used dry or with shaving cream. This is a bonus for anyone who prefers one over the other. Personally, my skin gets red after using electric shavers so using shaving cream is a nice option to have. I have a beard so I only shave my neck, so I cannot really test how well the shaver does over various surfaces of the face but it has done very well for me so far. I used shaving cream once with it just to try and I will say that I like it, but I did have to go over several areas again to get a close shave. Another feature of the shaver that works well is the trimmer. The trimmer is great for both my beard line and mustache. I also like that the shaver is washable, which makes cleanup a breeze.

Pros:
Lightweight
Long lasting battery
Close shave
Wet/dry shave
Quiet motor
Trimmer

Cons:
I have to go over areas a few times, but that is common for me with electric shavers.

Welch's Refreshingly Simple Peach Mango Juice

Here is another product that I was able to try from BzzAgent for free. Welch's Refreshingly Simple is a new line a juice that consists of a few simple ingredients. I had the chance to try out the Peach Mango flavor. I also received several coupons, which I handed out to others so they get the chance to try out the new juice, as well as a Welch's snap-top sandwich case. My first impression of the juice was good. I like the flavor of it, but for me the peach flavor came out as dominant. This does not bother me since I enjoy peaches and peach drinks. However, my wife tried the juice and she was not a fan of it. She does not like peach that much and since it comes out so much it was not for her. My 5 year old son also did not like the juice, but he is not a fan of juices that are not apple. Also, he goes through phases where he only wants certain things so it is definitely not the juices fault. I do like that Welch's decided to go along the route of only adding a few ingredients that everyone can actually pronounce. Welch's Refreshingly Simple also does not have any artificial sweeteners, preservatives, artificial flavors, or high fructose corn syrup. Along with the Peach Mango the juice is available in Concord Grape, Strawberry Raspberry, Orange Pineapple Apple, and Passion Fruit. For anyone out there who would like to try a new juice I would definitely say give this a try.

Arnott's Tim Tam Cookies

I had the opportunity to try Arnott's Tim Tam cookies through BzzAgent. This delicious treat is made in Australia. The Tim Tam consists of a chocolate outside, crunchy cookie middle, and a creamy chocolate inside. Every aspect of the cookie was amazing and I could not find anything negative about the product. All the layers complimented each other, which resulted in a well balanced cookie. My wife, son, and I all loved the Tim Tams and I would definitely buy them in the future. They are a snack that is very hard to just have one or even a few. Through BzzAgent I was also given some coupons to use for myself as well as share them around so that others could try these great cookies out for themselves.

Crest® Pro-Health Advanced + Extra Whitening Product Review

I am a member of a site called BzzAgent, which allows users to test products for free. Occasionally, I am lucky enough to get an item to try for free and I will be posting what I think about each product here. The first product I was able to get was a bottle of Crest Pro-Health Advanced + Extra Whitening mouth wash.  The product has a good taste, which did not make me want to immediately spit it out. The texture of the product was also not slimy or filmy, which can be present with other mouth wash products. After swishing and spitting the mouth wash out my mouth tingled a bit, but that is normal with mouth wash products and I would hope that means it was working. Overall, I am very happy with this Crest mouth wash and I am happy that I was able to be selected to try it. A big shout out to both Crest and BzzAgent!
