I was super excited to receive the CANVAS Immel 1-Light Semi-Flush Mount Ceiling Light, in Black, as a free product to review. This light fixture is super modern and sleek, and works perfectly in our second bedroom, turned closet! The exterior of the canopy is a matte black with a brushed gold interior. Everything with this light fixture is so well thought out, with the matching gold ceiling plate and nuts. I was a little concerned that the single bulb may be too dim, but with the open canopy, there's been no issues. If you're replacing a current light fixture, you'll need to switch out your probable rectangular plate with the round one provided, or else things won't line up as necessary. Super pleased with our new lighting! -

I had the opportunity to try Command Heavyweight Picture Hanging Strips. Let me preface this by saying that the hanging strips work. They're very sturdy and get the job done. The instructions are clear and recommend having a second person to help with the installation of larger frames. I can conquer that two people was better than one, and I likely should have taken that advice from the beginning. Because once those strips are on the wall, they're on! The adhesive isn't just tacky, it's tough. The strips attach to one another like Velcro. So once your strips are in place, you can move the frame up or down, which worked out well for me as my wall placements weren't all 100% accurate. I'm not loving the thickness of the strips though, as you can see the strips at the side of the frame. If your frame is wider than mine, I suggest moving the strips a bit closer to the centre.

I had the opportunity to try Command 15 lbs extra Heavyweight Wall Hooks. We needed an extra hook in our bathroom for hand towels and bathrobes. Those items aren't the heaviest, but I have tested out the hook with some larger items - so far, it's stayed in place! The hook was really easy to mount on the wall, with super simple instructions. When we're ready to place the hook somewhere else, I'll be able to remove it easily and remount it with fresh command strips. Which is awesome!

I had the opportunity to try Armani Luminous Silk Cheek Tint, in shade 50.5 - Rosy Peach. First off, I absolutely love the shade of this cheek tint. The Rosy Peach is very natural and gives a subtle flush to the skin. But it's also easily buildable for more pigment and impact. I love how lightweight this cheek tint is and that it surprisingly lasts throughout the day, without any touch-ups! Best to use a blush brush though, as the pigment stained my fingers. -

I had the opportunity to try LISTERINE® Total Care Zero Alcohol Free Mouthwash. This mouthwash is an alcohol free, mild mint flavour. The label says "the most complete Listerine with a less intense taste", and I totally agree! The flavour and general after taste of this mouthwash was much lighter than your typical mouthwash. It’s a great whole mouth clean, that left my mouth and my breath feeling fresh. -

I ahead the opportunity to try Lubriderm® Advanced Moisture Therapy Lotion. It’s meant to help strengthen your skins moisture barrier, and offers itchy, dry skin 48 hours of moisturization. My legs are often dry and itchy. This Advanced Moisture Therapy lotion works like a gem! The lotion itself is fragrance free and free from all of the extra additives. I love that the lotion is thicker - it feels like I’m properly hydrating my skin. It left my skin looking and feeling softer, with no greasy after effects. Definitely worth a try! -

I had the opportunity to try Lubriderm® Advanced Moisture Therapy Body Wash. This body wash is great for sensitive, itchy and dry skin! There’s no fragrances or parabens and additives, just a soothing body wash! I’ve been using it over the past couple of weeks and I feel like I’ve seen a change in my dry skin. I should be applying cream after every shower, but that’s not always the case. With the Advanced Moisture Therapy body wash, I didn’t feel like my typically dry legs were screaming for lotion. And they didn’t look like it either! The body wash itself has a thicker lather. And I love that it’s a squeeze bottle and not a pump. -

I had the opportunity to try Sarna Bug Bite Patches and was pleasantly surprised! I didn't even realize that I had a bug bite until I checked out why my calf was so itchy. Lo and behold, I had a big mosquito bite! I pulled out my Sarna patches and placed one onto the bite. I had instant relief from the itchy sensation and didn't have any discomfort for the rest of the day. The patches themselves are about 1.5" in diameter, so great coverage for pretty much all bites. The patch stayed in place the whole day, even while I was moving about. The patches contain Aloe, Witch Hazel and Chamomile. I was really impressed with the instant soothing relief. Sarna Patches should be a staple in everyone's medicine cabinet! -

I had the opportunity to try Lancôme's Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Serum Eye and it's a game changer! First off, let me just say how much I love the container. It has a stunning metallic silver to purple ombré effect, and I'm here for it! It has a pumping mechanism which makes it easy to dole out your desired amount and a little goes a long way. The serum itself has three powerful formulas that mix well together and is easy to apply to the eye area. I have been using this serum off and on for a few weeks now, blending it under my eye, around the sides/crows feet and above my eyelid. This serum does everything it claims to do - tightens, eye lifts and smooths! After application, I literally feel like I've just had an eye lift done! It makes me look younger and more awake. My eyes appear more open, helping to brighten up my face. It’s perfect for the morning after a rough nights sleep, or a quick pick-me-up before heading out in the evening! My under eye circles are definitely less dark and it helps to smooth out my under eye bags. So yay for that magic! I’m excited to see how it may affect my fine lines after more use. This is a product that I will be purchasing in the future. -

I had the opportunity to try Armani Prisma Glass Lip Gloss, in Clear Shine. This lip gloss is a new staple! I have used it for both daytime and evening wear over the past few weeks. This gloss offers ultra high-shine. It’s easily buildable for more impact and dimension. I've used it on its own and overtop of my fave lipsticks. Bonus - I was pleasantly surprised that it didn't leave my lips a sticky mess! Would definitely recommend. -
