I received a free sample of the PanOxyl PM Blemish Brightening Patches and I was very excited to be able to try this product. I have adult acne and scarring because I also pick my skin, and I had the perfect scar to test it on. I will say the patches are very easy to use, and once placed were totally not noticeable on my skin.
I received 4 patches but the product says to expect results after 10 days so I'm not sure I had enough to give a fully fair review. I kept each patch on for two days to give it the best chance of working. Unfortunately, my scar looks the same after use of the patches, there was no noticeable change to the shape, size or colour of the scar.
Since the product was not at all effective for me, I cannot recommend this product.

I have been taking the Cran-Max as part of my supplement routine for the last month and I feel that it has been helpful for me. I only suffer from occasional UTIs but usually in the summer because it's hot and I'm sweatier and it just seems to happen more often this time of year. I didn't have one this summer! I feel that the supplement definitely played a part in that. -

I am going to be honest and admit that I was a complete skeptic when I got this trial product. I've tried lots of products in the past to deal with breakouts and have not had a lot of luck with any of them, so I wasn't holding my breath for these to work.
I put a bunch on last night all over my face. I did have one really uncomfortable blemish, and then I picked a few other tiny ones or random places on my face just to be able to compare results. I went to sleep expecting little if any result, after all how could a tiny non-medicated sticky thing do anything?
Well, these mighty little Hero patches proved me wrong. I didn't think to get a 'before' picture of the one I uploaded because it's a weird angle for me to selfie, but let me tell you the 'after' shot says it all. Almost the whole patch was white! And when I took the patch off, the sore blemish was basically gone. Definitely not swollen anymore! I was blown away. Nothing has ever worked so fast and without some other effect like dry skin or something.
Now I mentioned I put them all over the place and here are some other things I observed. In areas where there weren't any actual blemishes, there was little to no change to the Hero patch which makes sense. I put one on the tip of my nose that has tiny tiny micro-whiteheads sometimes, and although the patch didn't really change, the tip of my nose feels pretty smooth so that was something. I also put one on a bit of a blemish I had already picked and it seems to have healed a little faster; it's certainly not itchy like it was anyway.
I had one blemish in my hairline (buzzcut, so super short hair) and I was impressed that the Hero patch stayed on all night since there was a little hair there. It still helped that blemish too! ...it did pull a little hair to pull it off so I am not sure I'll want to try one on my next eyebrow breakout lol.
Finally, the reason I am for sure going to buy these in the future. I have this blemish beside my nose (and sadly didn't get a before picture. It's kind of a hard bump, more of a really dry whitehead kind of thing; not a mole, but really tough and raised and almost pointy. **TMI warning - sometimes I could squeeze a little out of it but mostly it's been there for ages and ages and it's pointy and kind of unsightly**. Since I was trying the Hero patches anyway, I stuck one on that bump too just to see what would happen. Oh. My. Goodness. It's reduced in size by a good third and is much less pointy and bumpy. I've already got another patch on it to see if I can get it to clear all the way! Also since I"m wearing it in the daytime, can confirm, they are already basically invisible, but if you put a little concealer on they vanish really well.
TL:DR; I completely was ready to get up this morning and write a scathing review about scammy beauty products, but instead will be keeping these in my home forever because they work so incredibly well that I was blown away!

I was very excited for the opportunity to try the Sambucol Black Elderberry Daily Immune Drink Powder. I find that elderberry really helps me during cold and flu season. This drink powder is delicious and fruity but not overly sweet. It mixes into water really easily and doesn't leave a residue like some supplement drink powders do. It's also got vitamin C for that extra boost. If you're not a fan of pills or find the elderberry syrups too strong tasting, this would be a perfect alternative for you! I will definitely be adding the Sambucol drink mix to my daily routine.

I was so excited to try the Aveeno calm and restore face cleanser. I have sensitive skin and asthma, so I loved that it was fragrance free. I found that the cleanser worked to clean my face effectively without drying it out, and without leaving any residue. I really liked that it didn't leave a filmy feeling on my face after I was done washing! Aveeno is a brand I trust for other products so I'm happy this one is the same quality I've come to expect from them. -
