This hand cream is just what I was looking for. It goes on smoothly and isn't greasy like some creams but despite the lightweight feel, my hands stayed moisturized for hours and it only came off once I washed my hands. As someone who has suffered from very dry skin for years, I am always looking for hand creams that will stay the course without causing my hands to itch. I have tried countless brands and types of moisturizers and only a few have made the cut. This is one of them. Even though this is scented, I did not have any negative reactions after using it for a week and the citrus scent is so fresh. The packaging is minimalist but this is good if you're not looking for anything flashy. The only comment I would make is that I can see the metal tube getting hard to squeeze once you are almost finished the product, but that is not a deal breaker by any means.

This Paderno wok is sturdy and very well made. As soon as you pick it up you can tell that it is quality as it is heavy enough to be durable but not too heavy for use. The double handles on either side make tossing food easy and it is large enough to cook a solid amount to feed a family. This wok is made of clad stainless steel and requires proper care, though the initial and subsequent seasonings to make it non-stick are very simple. Even after the first time I seasoned it, nothing stuck to the metal when I used it to stir fry meats and vegetables. It washes easily and is an excellent addition to our kitchen arsenal. -

Aquaman takes on Black Manta in this fun and interactive toy! Each figure comes with its own trident and has several points of articulation, allowing for countless different poses. The Black Manta submarine has a secret compartment that allows one of the figures to sneak into play and kids always love a secret pocket to keep little trinkets and other toys. The figures are light and easily held with a good amount of detail considering how small they are. We liked that they are a good size to be held by little hands and also easy to pop into a bag to take on the go. The submarine comes with battle ready noises for another layer of interaction. This is a great toy for kids, especially Aquaman fans! -

This organic bin is much better than the one we had before. It is sturdy with a clean design and if we choose to hang it outside the cabinets, it fits into our modern decor. There is another positioning option where it can be mounted on a cabinet door if you prefer a more fixed location. This is how we have had the bin set up for the last two weeks and is great because it hides the organics out of sight. It opens and closes smoothly and is an ideal size that is large enough to hold a week's worth of one family's organics, but isn't too big for us to fit under the sink. We also like that there is a sturdy handle attached that allows us to bring it outside when we have BBQ's. It makes for easy disposal and is a convenient bin to have in the house. -

This cough syrup was great for our little guy when he wasn't feeling well and I do think it helped him get better quickly in a couple days. He had a cough that was making him wail constantly and once we gave this to him, he stopped crying within a few hours. It comes with a syringe to easily measure the amount you need and we had no trouble giving it to our son. I tasted this myself and it has a gentle, sweet flavour that all babies must love. Despite all his crying, our son never refused to take the syrup. The product is paediatrician approved and I feel much better giving this to my kid knowing that it is safe. I also like that it is natural, which is one thing we try to look for when choosing products for our son. -

This is an excellent product and particularly good for people with eczema or sensitive skin. I have struggled with eczema all my life and it is a constant battle to keep the skin on my hands clear. This balm is thick and protective but not difficult to spread or apply. It kept my skin feeling supple without feeling greasy or oily. I had no problems with feeling itchy or allergic after using it, and it is gentle enough to use on 6 month old babies. The product is concentrated so you do not need a lot of it to cover a large area, and it is easy to apply. There is no scent, which is a bonus for people with sensitive skin like myself, as I find that the scents can sometimes cause itchiness. One application lasted several hours (only coming off with hand washing) and right away my skin felt soothed. Overall, this is a great balm to use either day or night to nourish the skin and keep it feeling soft and supple. -

This exfoliator was just what I was looking for to maintain my skin. I have sensitive skin that doesn't react well to regular exfoliators with harsh scrubs, and this one by Aveeno is great because it isn't abrasive. I can't stress how nice it is to have an exfoliating option that doesn't involve rubbing abrasive creams on my face. It is a smooth cream that spreads well and doesn't sting the eyes. I found it was easy to apply, not too thin and not too sticky. It washed off without too much scrubbing and left my skin feel smooth and fresh. There was no lingering residue or redness that resulted after using this over a couple weeks, and I feel like it brightened up my complexion. A great product! -

This toy is awesome and my little guy loved it! There are so many features to entertain the kids, from the lights to the sounds and all the hidden compartments they can play with. This is a toy that will last and provides multiple ways of playing. The carrier comes with one Paw Patrol character and car but other characters can be purchased separately, which allows for a greater range of play. If you have multiple cars, they can be placed in the side compartments and just like a real aircraft carrier, this one can store several vehicles. My little one really enjoyed opening all the doors and discovering the "secrets", as he calls it. We were impressed by the interactive features included to make this fun for kids, such as the missiles and ramp that shoot out. Assembly was easy and took no time at all to get it ready for play. The carrier comes almost completely assembled and this is great for busy parents who have minimal time to put things together and need entertainment for the kids right away. All in all, this is an interactive toy that has provided hours of fun and with the lasting power of Paw Patrol's popularity, I am sure my child will play with this carrier for a long time! -
