As someone who loves spending time outdoors but often ends up with itchy bug bites, I was excited to try out the Sarna Bug Bite Patches, hoping for relief that didn't involve messy creams or strong-smelling ointments. Here’s my experience with these patches:
**Ease of Use:**
One of the standout features of these patches is how easy they are to use. Each patch comes individually wrapped, making them convenient to carry in a bag or pocket. Applying them is simple: just peel off the backing and place the patch directly over the bug bite. The patches adhere well and stay in place without any hassle, which is perfect for active days outdoors.
Effectiveness:
The real test for any bug bite relief product is how well it soothes and reduces itching. I found that the Sarna Bug Bite Patches deliver on their promise. Upon application, the patches provide a cooling sensation that quickly calms the itchiness. They contain 1% Pramoxine hydrochloride, which is an effective anti-itch ingredient, providing relief that lasts for several hours. This was particularly welcome during evenings when mosquito bites tend to flare up.
Comfort and Feel:
Unlike some creams or gels that can be sticky or greasy, these patches are virtually invisible once applied. They are thin and flexible, conforming to the contours of the skin without feeling bulky or uncomfortable. The cooling sensation is gentle and soothing, which is a big plus compared to other products that can feel harsh or overly medicated.
Longevity and Value:
Each patch is designed to provide relief for up to 8 hours, which is impressive considering their small size. This makes them ideal for overnight use or during long outings where reapplying cream might not be convenient. The value for money is also reasonable considering the effectiveness and convenience they offer.
Overall Impression:
I'm highly impressed with the Sarna Bug Bite Patches. They are now a staple in my outdoor essentials kit, providing quick and effective relief whenever mosquito bites strike. The ease of use, combined with their effectiveness and comfort, makes them a standout product in the realm of bug bite relief solutions. Whether you're hiking, camping, or just enjoying a summer evening outdoors, these patches are a must-have for anyone prone to insect bites.
If you're looking for a hassle-free way to alleviate itching and discomfort from bug bites, I wholeheartedly recommend giving Sarna Bug Bite Patches a try. They deliver on their promises and have become my go-to solution for insect bite relief.

I was recently introduced to the PanOxyl Blemish Brightening Patch which is said to help brighten and lighten up any acne scars in as little as 10 days, which immediately had me intrigued. Acne scarring and pigmentation has always been something that I struggle with and I'm self conscious of and I haven't had much success with finding products that works for me. These patches are like your hydrocolloid acne patches, except of being a small circle, it's a large triangular patch. They're infused with niacinamide, tranexemic acid, vitamin c which helps to properly heal and lighten up your acne scars. Because it is more of a bigger patch, if I don't have a large pigmented spot, I like to cut it up in half as that's all I need and save the remaining half for the next use. I was only sent four patches to try out and after using it for the few uses that I can get out of it, I would say that it is effective to help properly heal and lighten your acne. For the pimple that I was suffering with, it looked and felt flat to touch, in which in normal cases I would assume it has fully healed already, but once I put the patch overtop it for the night, it actually sucked up remaining pus that was still left inside that I didn't even know I still had. Overall, I'm very impressed with this product and will be repurchasing in the future.

I'm always looking for light weight moisturizers to try out as the Canadian weathers are so dry, but I also hate the feeling of thick moisturizers on my skin, and this Covergirl Weightless Water Cream is a great option.
This moisturizer feels and applies like a primer and helps to smoothen the pores and gives a suppleness to the skin. It claims to hydrate for 72 hours, which I cannot speak for as I do tend to wash my face and reapply skincare in a time period less than 72 hours, but it does keep my skin supple for the time that I do apply in between. I like applying it alone or even under makeup.
The scent is natural and fresh which is a plus for me!
I would highly recommend this product!

This dry shampoo is definitely different from the regular dry shampoo as it comes out in a mousse or foam form, hence the name of waterless cleansing foam, which I personally think is easier for application as you can evenly distribute it throughout your hair.
It does take some time for the product to absorb into your hair as it's quite wet looking and feeling. The effect to absorb oils isn't quite as strong as regular dry shampoo in my opinion and over time I feel like it makes your hair look even greasier than it was.
Its made with coconut milk which I was a bit iffy on at first as I'm not a fan of coconut scented products, it's too overwhelming for me personally, but I really love the scent of this product, it's very very light and fresh and doesn't have that fake artificial coconut scent at all!
I personally wouldn't recommend this product, and would just stick with the regular line of batiste dry shampoo instead.

I love this brightening mask! It smells amazing, super citrusy and fresh and invigorating to the senses. The packaging is also very convenient and sanitary as it comes in a squeezy pouch.
The effect of this mask isn't super strong and would take some time to help with lightening pigmentation but its brightening effect is noticeable immediately!
Highly recommend!

I love that it's a healthy and convenient meal that you can throw together, but the taste was not great in my opinion. It has a nice kick, but lacked flavor and just tasted sour and off. The texture of the grains was really nice though, quite chewy and complex which I really liked.
I really wanted to love this product but, I was disappointed with it and would not recommend this flavor.

Enjoying a nice cup of afternoon tea that's made better with A2 milk! Thank you to Chickadvisor and A2milk for this amazing opportunity!
My family and I often have a bit of discomfort after having regular milk, but we were never diagnosed as being lactose intolerant. Plant based milk alternatives helped with the situation, but they lack that creaminess and milky-ness quality that you would get from regular milk.
After being introduced to this product, I've learnt that this milk is produced specifically from cows that only produce the A2 beta-casein protein, which makes it easier to digest! Regular milk contains both A1 and A2 beta-casein proteins, in which the A1 component is the trouble maker essentially, causing sensitivity and discomfort for many!
I must say I am absolutely in love! The milk tastes of super high quality, rich, creamy, and smooth! Personally, I think it even tastes better than regular milk, as sometimes I find regular milk can taste a little bit watered down and just lacks substance, but this A2 milk is truly the definition of what milk should taste like, and now my family and I can enjoy it with no worries, and haven't experienced any discomforts since! We will be repurchasing this and highly recommend it to those who have discomforts from drinking regular milk!

I absolutely love these yogurt cups, they’re so reasonably priced, convenient, healthy and most importantly delicious!
The yogurt is nice and creamy, more on the thicker side, but very smooth in texture. The fruit taste isn’t artificial at all and very refreshing.
I love these as a quick snack after a workout or to pack with lunch as they’re easy to grab and on-the-go friendly.
Highly recommend!

This facial exfoliator smells absolutely delicious, very peachy and sweet!
There’s a lot of product and it’s so reasonably priced and accessible, however as a scrub for the face, the apricot seed particles are too rough and abrasive for the skin on the face in my opinion and easily irritates it.
I would however use it as a body scrub instead and I think it works fantastic in that aspect!

Love the concept of this 3 in 1 serum, serum, sunscreen and moisturizer as it can help cut down on the amount of products in my skincare routine, however it wasn’t for me.
After using for several days, i noticed a bunch of tiny little bumps all along my cheeks, forehead and chin and it clogged up all my pores. So not sure if it will help to brighten or reduce the appearance of pigmentation as I didn’t continue using it.
I did like the texture and scent of the product though, its quite light in comparison to a regular sunscreen but thicker in consistency than a regular serum and it has a very light citrus/cucumber scent which is very refreshing!
I wouldn’t recommend this product if you have oily skin, but if you have drier skin to normal skin this might work well for you.
