The patches have potential depending on how long you use them and what you're trying to 'brighten'. I received a sample of four patches and I noticed a slight difference on an older acne spot I have, so I hope that longer use helps further. The patches are easy to use and cover a decently large enough area.

These small gummies are very easy to chew and taste decent. They're not a 'typical' gummy as they're quite dense. A downside is they're expensive for what they are and for how many in a package. I don't know how effective they are when unwell, but taking them as a preventative is reasonable.

Bai Antioxidant Infusion Costa Rica Clementine
Fairly mild drink that tastes pretty good! I like that the ingredients are simple and that it's not too sweet. Unfortunately, it's very expensive unless it's purchased on sale.

Colgate Renewal Gum Revitalize Toothpaste, Whitening Restoration - Cool Mint Gel

Packaging is quite fancy for toothpaste and looks nice on the counter. However, this extra packaging clearly reflects in the price. Nearly $8 for 70ml of toothpaste!? That's far, far too much.
As to the effectiveness, I don't notice any whitening...maybe it takes weeks/months? The flavor is off-putting, unfortunately, which makes it difficult to want to use. It's called 'Cool Mint', however it tastes nothing like mint and has a plastic undertone with no refreshing flavor whatsoever.
Apart from the nice packaging, I would not buy this. The basic Crest or Colgate toothpastes work and taste better than this, and are cheaper, too.

Neutrogena Hydro Boost® Make-up Removing Cleansing Wipes

I enjoy using these facial wipes, especially to help remove the majority of or last traces of makeup, depending on the application that day. They also work well as a replacement for washing my face in the mornings. They don't dry out my skin, aren't rough so don't irritate, and one wipe is enough for the application I'm using it for. The only 'downside' is that more than 25 should be included in the package (which is not enough for even a typical month if one per day is used) and they are on the expensive side. -

A good cream product that accomplishes what it says it does. A fragrance-free cream without a bunch of unpronounceable ingredients is very welcome. The cream is a nice consistency that's fairly thick but still easily spreadable. Helps to relieve my dry skin this winter, such as my hands. One downside is that at times it seems to 'sit' on the skin and doesn't fully absorb so it can feel a bit tacky, depending on how much is used, although a little does go a long way. Overall, a good cream from a trusted brand. -

I received a coupon for a free Becel plant-based butter courtesy of FamilyRated.
I'm allergic to dairy and I've been happily using Becel's spreadable vegan butter for years and I love it as it's the closest vegan product to real butter's taste that I've found.
This newer brick product is just as good and also more versatile, as it can be used in its hardened form for baking or left out for a few minutes to become softer for other purposes such as spreading on bread.
I like that it comes in both salted and unsalted varieties as well, as unsalted specifically allows you to control the amount of salt to add, if at all needed, and works great for baking!

Pain can be tricky as some meds just don't work for me, such as acetaminophen or naproxen. However, ibuprofen has always worked pretty well for me.
This 'Motrin Liquid Gels' product is double the regular strength per pill at 400 mg, which is great for some of my regular and more intense pain like migraines or period pain. I love that the pills are small, gel coated, and are liquid, as they are easy to swallow and I find that they take effect somewhat quicker than tablets.
It also has more simple and non-allergy ingredients than some other brands, which I greatly appreciate.
A downside to this particular pill type is that they cannot be halved such as tablets can be, so sometimes I may be stuck taking a larger dose of medication than I'd otherwise prefer, depending on the pain.
I used this product for a tough couple of days of period pain and it worked well. It was great not needing to swallow several regular strength pills when just one would do.

I received this for review and I like this product. It has a good consistency that absorbs well and isn't greasy afterwards. It feels a bit 'plasticky' before it fully absorbs, but it goes away shortly. I have dry skin on my arms and this cream seems to keep it at bay for a good portion of the day after a shower. A little goes a long way, too.
It's a bit expensive in some stores where I am, $15, so I'd feel more comfortable buying it on sale.
I'd recommend this an as option for others who suffer from dry skin.

I love the variety of shades in this palette. I was looking for purples and golds/coppers and this fit the bill. They go on very nicely with primer and have buildable intensity. The only downside I've found is most of the shades can have a lot of shimmer fallout, such as the copper shade. -
