I recently received a free full-sized sample of NEUTROGENA® Hydro Boost Gel Cream Extra-Dry to try out. I haven’t really used Neutrogena products in over a decade but was excited to try it out. I am struggling right now with some dry patches on my face, around my mouth and nose so I was very curious if it would work. NEUTROGENA® Hydro Boost Gel Cream is a great moisturizer, I really loved the gel cream formulation as it just melts into my skin with some gentle tapping. I used this gel cream for a week and I am so impressed. The dry and flaky patches on my face have virtually disappeared. I love that this gel cream isn’t heavy but still provides the moisture of a heavy cream. I am very pleased with this new formulation and will definitely will be purchasing this product when I run out. Also, such beautiful turquoise packing. -

I recently received a free full sized sample of Neutrogena® Hydro Boost Ultra Hydrating Serum Fragrance Free. I haven’t really used Neutrogena products in a long time but I was really impressed with this Hydrating Serum. As it’s a serum, it’s recommended to be put on right after cleansing the skin. Right now we are transitioning from Winter to Spring and I was struggling with some dry and flakey patches around my mouth and nose. Over the course of the day these patches would dry out and become flaky and very noticeable. So I was very excited to try out this product and to see if it would help. I have been using this serum for just 5 days and have already noticed the dry areas are no longer dry and flaky. The serum absorbs into my skin very quickly with minimal effort. The product is nice and light and has a gel and cooling effect upon application. I love that the product is fragrance free as my facial skin is quite sensitive to products with fragrance. The hyaluronic acid and natural moisturizing factors do an amazing job of keeping my face hydrated and looking plump and glowing, even after wearing masks all day as I work in healthcare. Great product that I will definitely be adding into my skincare routine. -

I recently received a free sample of Nair Wax Ready Strips with White Lily Extract. I have never waxed or used wax strips before. So I very carefully read through all the instructions and followed them. Hair must be 1/2 inch long and must clean and dry the area first. No need to warm the strips as they should be cool or cold to apply. Hardest part was ripping them off quickly. It took a bit of practice but eventually I got the hang of it. I’m not really a waxer but I think this would be a great portable option for those who like to wax. Sadly I don’t think waxing is for me.

Recently tried out Aveeno Calm + Restore Daily Face Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30. I was a little reluctant as most mineral sunscreens I have tried leave a white cast on my brown skin, and don’t absorb into the skin. It usually takes forever to rub in and still sits on my skin’s surface. However, this Aveeno sunscreen was phenomenal compared to any other SPF product I have tried. It has a slight tan tint to it, but it didn’t leave a white film on my face and actually absorbed very quickly into my skin. It also allowed me to put my foundation on top of the sunscreen without any issues. Most other sunscreens get blotchy when trying to apply foundation on top, this one did not. As I have sensitive and eczema prone skin I was very happy that this Aveeno sunscreen didn’t sting or burn my face. But actually felt very soothing and moisturizing. This is an amazing product and I continue to be impressed with Aveeno’s Calm + Restore line of products. Will be my new summer and vacation face sunscreen. -

Was really excited to try out Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch original pimple patches. Love that they make my pimples disappear overnight and so amazed that they didn’t move or fall off while sleeping. They really live up to their “mighty” name as they work so well at getting rid of my unwanted pimples especially right before a big date or event. -

Recently had the opportunity to try Sambucol Black Elderberry Advanced Immune support gummies. We are currently in the middle of cold and flu and COVID season, anything I can take or give to the family to support our immune system is greatly appreciated. Wonderful that these gummies are suitable for children over 4 years of age as it makes taking them a breeze. Very tasty little gummies that are quick and convenient to take when feeling under the weather. A simple and effective and portable way to boost your immune system on the go. Loved that there are no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

I was very excited to try out Aveeno Tone + Texture daily renewing lotion. I have always had bumps and darker spots on my knees and elbows, and since I have medium brown skin. I was very excited to use this product and see if it actually reduces the bumps and the darker spots. After using this product for a week, I have noticed my skin tone is more even but haven’t noticed a change in rhe bumps on my knees and elbows. Hopefully if I keep using this product it will reduce their unwanted texture. -

I was so excited to try PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches. They are simply the best treatment for that unwanted pimple you always get right before a party or a big event. These patches are amazing!! So easy to use, after cleaning your skin you just peel one off and gently put it on your pimple. I did not expect them to stay on through the night, but I was so impressed that it didn’t move at all. It was actually on my forehead in the exact same spot I put it in the night before. There are 2 sizes, I guess depending on the pimple size, or you could cut the big ones in half of you only have small pimples. They didn’t dry out my skin, and took away the redness and bump that comes with the inevitable pimple. Gave a few to my daughter to try and after the first use she wanted to know where she could buy some more of these. Such a wonderful product that works overnight while you are sleeping. Loved that they have no colour to them so they aren’t even noticeable when you put them on. Such an awesome product and one that I will always have in hand for the unwanted pimples that always pop up when least expected. -
