I received this product free from butterly.com. AVEENO® Calm + Restore Daily Gel Moisturizer (Lightweight) did not work as intended for my dry skin. I do like that it is fragrance/paraben/dye free, however, I found that it did not absorb into my skin as well as my regular brand. Instead it made my skin very greasy & therefore it did not help heal my dry skin. -

I received the cucumber & green tea scent which I find very pleasant. It is a larger size too which is a bonus. Compared to the competitor brand that I've been using, it is a little bit more wet feeling when I first apply it, only very briefly though so that doesn't bother me. Plus I think thats from the moisturizers which does seem to be making my underarms more soft & smooth. So far it's lasted the day & I haven't had to reapply, but having said that I haven't been able to put it to a real sweaty test (like a hot day or intense workout) yet to see how it will withstand.
For normal every day use though it seems to be a good deodorant. I will have to use it for a bit longer before I can decide if its better than the competitor aluminum free deodorant brand that I have been using. The price will also be a factor in that decision so I'll have to check that out as well. #gotitfree #trydovezeroaluminum

Kashi seven grain with quinoa honey oat flax bars
Received these as a freebee and was pleasantly surprised as I enjoyed the taste more than I was expecting. They are hard and crunchy but I didn't mind. Have since bought them at Costco.

Originally received a small free sample of this hair oil and I liked it so much I went on to purchase it! I have fine hair which gets oily easy so I was reluctant but gave it try and was pleasantly surprised. When used on regular basis definitely helps contain my frizz and doesn't make my hair greasy! I only need one pump so the bottle lasts me a long time. -
Febreze CAR Vent Clips in Hawaiian Aloha
Love the smell! I like how you can control how much scent you want released. The only issue I have now is its made for horizontal vents and in my new truck the vents are vertical.

Pond's Dry Skin Cream
I tried ponds dry skin cream quite a few years ago now and did not find it met my needs. Too oily, especially for my face, and not moisturizing enough for my hands.

Canada Dry Cranberry Ginger Ale
I'm not even a much of a cranberry fan but I really enjoy this pop! It's the perfect cranberry to gingerale ratio. Word of caution- it might make you burp uncontrollably.

I've been using the ProActiv 3 step system for like 10 years now. Started in high school when my acne was horrible and I felt like I tried every acne treatment out there to no avail. It was more expensive back actually then than it is now but I'm glad I decided to take the plunge and give it a try! I use it morning & night and when I first started using it the 3 month supply now lasted me just that, but now it lasts me 5-6 months so I don't need to use as much anymore. I still get small breakouts here and there but they are hormone related so I don't think any topical treatment would be stopping those! I love the refining mask, it takes 10 minutes though so I don't use it as often as I should but when I do it leaves my skin feeling wonderful.
I say if you're battling acne, take the plunge & give it a try! It doesn't work for everybody (what skin product does? especially one that fight acne) but if it works for you, you'll be glad you did.
Tips: I buy it from Showcase, not online from ProActiv where it's shipped to you every 3 months, so I can buy it as I need it.
Use a white towel to dry your face (I've had it stain some of my towels)
If you find it drying out your skin, cut down the amount you use and then cut down to using it at night only
