Thank you @thisisbutterly @chickadvisor for the opportunity to try @swissnatural’s Cran Max supplement for free in exchange for my honest review.
I've been using Cran Max by Swiss Natural for a month to support my urinary tract health. The product does seem to help, particularly with the early signs of discomfort, but it has not prevented recurrent UTIs. The capsules, which contain cranberry concentrate (250 mg -- 8500 mg herbal equivalent) are easy to take. Also, the natural formulation is important to me.
However, the benefits didn’t compare to those I experienced using other much stronger cranberry supplements I've tried (up to 30,000 mg herbal equivalent). I think the product is good for general maintenance, but not necessarily “strong.”

Lubriderm Unscented Lotion + Pro Ceramide offers superior hydration, probably thanks to the pro ceramides. The pro ceramides are known to strengthen the skin barrier, which offer protection and helps skin remain hydrated for a long time.
As advertised, the lotion is unscented; therefore, it is an excellent option for anyone with sensitive skin or who prefers to avoid fragrances. I don’t avoid fragrances, yet I still appreciate a truly unscented lotion as it doesn’t interfere with the scented products I typically use. The lotion is also lightweight, it absorbs fast and leaves my skin smooth and soft throughout the day.
Lubriderm Unscented Lotion + Pro Ceramide is a great option for anyone looking for an effective, unscented, and hydrating lotion.

Another excellent product from Aveeno. The Aveeno Calm + Restore Daily Gel Moisturizer is extremely gentle and lightweight, making it perfect for daily use. It absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving any sticky or greasy residue behind.
The combination of shea butter, oat kernel oil, oat kernel extract, oat kernel flour, and aloe vera (yes, I read labels 😊 ) is calming, soothing, and comforting for skin.
I also appreciate that this moisturizer is fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic.
Its lightweight formula absorbs quickly, leaving my skin feeling supple, soft, hydrated, and refreshed.
I highly recommend Aveeno's Calm + Restore Daily Gel Moisturizer to anyone looking for a gentle and effective moisturizer for sensitive skin.

Aveeno's Eczema Care Rescue Relief Gel has soothed, hydrated, and improved the dryness and irritation of my skin.
I have only used the gel for a couple of days, but my skin already feels softer and smoother.
The fragrance-free and hypoallergenic formulas are soothing and gentle on sensitive skin. Oatmeal provides long-lasting hydration without leaving my skin greasy or heavy. It also helps calm redness and itchiness. My skin feels refreshed, and the gel seems to calm inflammation right away.
I did feel that the gel, while lightweight, was a bit sticky. However, adding a drop of water to it prior to application helped quite a bit, and even improved absorption.
I highly recommend Aveeno's Eczema Care Rescue Relief Gel to anyone struggling with eczema or sensitive skin.

Thank you for the opportunity to try the Flawless Cleanse Finishing Touch Facial Cleanser and Massager. After a couple of weeks of daily use, I'm extremely impressed by this innovative device.
In my experience, the Flawless Cleanse Finishing Touch Facial Cleanser and Massager can easily and efficiently remove makeup, dirt, dead skin, and impurities, leaving the skin feeling fresh.
The cleanser features numerous soft silicone bristles, which gently exfoliate while massaging the skin and improving circulation. The several vibration settings can be adjusted to fit various needs and individual preferences for a personalized routine. Moreover, the cleanser is rechargeable (it comes with an USB cable) and has a compact and user-friendly design.
The cleanser/massager is easy to clean and very versatile. While it is supposed to be used as a cleaning tool, I used it to clean my face as well as to apply lotions/creams to my face at bedtime.

Thank you for the opportunity to try Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Regenerating Cream.
The cream features an advanced retinol SA technology, which is designed to efficiently target visible signs of aging, and its fragrance-free formula is suitable for sensitive skin
The cream has a non-greasy texture, and it absorbs quickly upon application, leaving the skin feel smooth and pampered.
The formula includes hyaluronic acid, which helps hydrate the skin and diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
While I experienced some dryness and flakiness in the beginning (probably because I am slightly sensitive to retinol), with continued use, I noticed an improvement in the texture of my skin. My skin appears a bit smoother, and hopefully, in time the fine lines around my eyes will diminish.

Thank you @thisisbutterly @chickadvisor and @grownalchemist for the opportunity to try the Grown Alchemist Skin Defense Primer.
The primer not only improved the appearance of my skin but also helped keep it well hydrated and radiant throughout the day and provided protection against UV rays and pollution.
The primer, which contains a combo of 1) prebiotic peptides (supports skin health); 2) ashwagandha (reduces signs of fatigue and gives skin a healthy-looking glow), and 3) Reishi mushroom extract (rich in antioxidants and polysaccharides) has a lightweight texture. It is very easy to apply and doesn't feel heavy, greasy, or congesting.
While I don’t use a lot of makeup, I did notice that makeup applies more smoothly and evenly after using the primer. I also noticed that at the end of the day, my makeup looks almost as good as when I apply it in the morning.
In a nutshell, this primer exceeded my expectations, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality silicone-free primer from a cruelty-free company.

Thank you @thisisbutterly @chickadvisor for the opportunity to try @aveenoca the Aveeno Calm+Restore Daily Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30.
The Aveeno Calm+Restore Daily Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30 soothes my skin during cold winter days while providing good hydration. This is a lightweight yet nourishing formula that absorbs easily into my skin, leaving a soft, non-greasy finish.
The oat extract has remarkable soothing properties and is a natural product that is known to calm irritated skin. The formula is fragrance-free, which reduces/minimizes the risk of irritation or allergic reactions.
The addition of SPF30 ensures protection against harmful UV rays, preventing premature aging and sun damage.
I have only used the moisturizer for about a week, but my skin feels well hydrated and protected.
I would recommend Aveeno Calm+Restore Daily Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30 to anyone with sensitive skin (and not only) looking for a gentle yet effective skincare product.

As someone who prioritizes immune health, I was interested in experiencing the benefits this product claims to offer, in particular the immune-boosting benefits of black elderberry extract. The gummies taste great and are easy to take; there are no artificial colors or flavors.
Given that I only received 4 gummies, which I took over 4 days, I cannot share an honest opinion about the product because I didn't feel any benefits. I feel that a decent trial would involve using this product for a couple of weeks rather than just 4 days.
