I am someone you usually gets breakouts fairly often, but of course I've barely had any blemishes since I received these patches to review. That being said, when I have used them I have found they made a noticeable difference in the size and redness of pimples. I also gave some to my sister to try and she agreed that they work well.
The little red applicator that is attached to each patch is great for avoiding touching the sticky side of the patch with your fingers, and it also keeps the patch from stretching, so it always adheres flush to your skin. Once applied, the patches are virtually invisible. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase the Nexcare Thin & Transparent Acne Patches in the future.

I love this body cream. It has a really nice texture that's creamy without being too thick, and a small amount goes a long way, so I imagine the jar will last for a while. Once applied, this cream absorbs quickly and leaves your skin feeling soft and moisturized, but not at all sticky. I'm obsessed with the scent - the vanilla almond smell is so warm and comforting, yet subtle enough that it doesn't overpower you. The packaging is also beautiful.
While it is on the pricier side for body cream, if you are looking for luxury, this is it.

The sample patch had 4 patches, so I have not tried using them long-term yet. I do think I noticed a difference in the red areas of my skin from using the patches overnight a few times. I typically get cluster breakouts that leave red marks for a while after, and the size of these patches is perfect for that, as they can cover a larger area of skin. I am interested in trying them for a longer period of time to see if they can brighten my skin up even more!

As someone who often feels bloated or uncomfortable after certain meals, I was excited to try these digestive enzymes. I chew one right after eating and have found that it has prevented any major discomfort pretty much every time. While they don't necessarily taste like candy, I find the taste to be decent.
Last week I was on vacation and forgot to bring these with me in my bag the first day. By evening I felt very bloated, so I made sure to pack them in my backpack the next day, and chewed one after each meal. My bloating was gone by the afternoon and I felt much better.
I have tried other "bloat" products that perhaps work better, but are quite expensive and you need to take multiple at a time. These are a cost-effective alternative that are easy to take with you anywhere.

TYLENOL® Daytime Relief

I typically don't take Tylenol very often, because I find acetaminophen leaves a taste in my mouth that grosses me out, but that was not the case with Tylenol Daytime Relief as it has a coating to mask the medicine taste. As someone who often buys Excedrine in the US for headaches, I am excited that we now have a similar product in Canada. Tylenol Daytime Relief definitely reduced my headache, and the caffeine gave me some extra afternoon energy.
I do think there are other products that might be more effective at getting rid of strong headaches, but Tylenol Daytime Relief is a great option for minor headaches.

I am someone who often finds mouthwash too strong to swish for very long, but this mouthwash is definitely less intense and I am able to use it for much longer. I was worried that the lower intensity might also sacrifice freshness, but it doesn't! It leaves you with fresh breath and a clean feeling in your mouth. My husband has also been using it and likes it too. We will definitely purchase this again in the future.

This is a really nice under-eye serum that goes on smooth and doesn't affect other skincare or makeup applications overtop. I don't think I've been using it long enough to notice the long-term effects, but so far I'm really liking it. One downside when I first opened it was that two of the three tubes inside weren't properly attached, so I did have to play with it a couple times in order to get all three liquids to come out of the pump. I haven't had any issues since I fixed that though!
This serum absorbs quickly so you don't feel it sitting on top of your skin. I have been using it twice a day and my skin feels soft and moisturized, with no breakouts or other side effects.
While the cost is quite high, one small pump is plenty for undereyes, and I imagine this bottle will last a long time. Lucky for me, I got it free through Butterly.

This lotion is super lightweight and easy to apply. A little seems to go a long way, it's very soft, and it doesn't have an unpleasant odour. I don't think it would be strong enough for my dry winter skin, but now that the weather is getting nicer, I actually think it will be the perfect moisturizer for spring and summer. Since it absorbs fairly quickly, after a couple of minutes you don't feel any heaviness or stickiness on your skin, which is perfect for warmer weather. I am looking forward to trying it for a few more weeks and seeing the results.

I recently went on vacation and spending so much time in the sun left me with some dry, itchy patches on my skin. I had been using a different lotion to treat it, which helped a bit, but once I got this Aveeno cream, it only took using it two times before bed to notice a huge difference! After using it for about a week now, my skin feels soft and moisturized, with no more itchiness or redness. This will likely be my go-to in the winter, when my hands tend to get super dry and sore.

As soon as I opened the jar, I loved the scent of this night serum! It is a lovely light, fresh scent. The serum itself is different than any night cream I've ever used - the consistency is between a gel and a cream, and it goes on very smoothly. It seems like it could be heavy, but once it's on it absorbs quickly and I forget it's there until I wash my face in the morning. I use this nightly over the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid serum, and my skin has felt very moisturized and healthy.
I received this product for free from Chick Advisor and Neutrogena Canada, but I will definitely be purchasing it again in the future.
