I am prone to UTIs, unfortunately, and I was so excited to try the Swiss Natural Cran-Max 250mg to prevent infections. I have been administering two caplets per day for the last three and a half weeks and have not had any signs of a UTI! Although I love cranberry juice, taking two of these is much easier. I love that there are no artificial flavours, colours, or sweeteners in this product. I look forward to continuing to take this product to prevent UTIs. -

I have been using the Hydro Boost Ultra Hydrating Serum in addition to the Hydro-Boost Gel-Cream for a few weeks now and I am thrilled with the results. I have very dry skin and desperately need products that will give my skin that extra boost of moisture, especially in the winter and spring months. These products couldn't have arrived at a better time and I am so grateful that I have had the opportunity to use them.
I am a serum girl and have been for many years. I have really enjoyed the way that my skin looks and feels even without using the moisturizer on top. On some of my busier days, I sometimes put the serum on and get sidetracked and forget to put on the moisturizer. Even with wearing makeup on a daily basis and just using the serum, I have enough moisture on my skin that my foundation doesn't look or feel tight.
Many of the serums I have used previously have a scent that has irritated my skin. I love that this one is fragrance-free, and that is a major win in my books. The texture is gel-like and airy, which makes for a pleasant application. I love how my skin instantly feels supple and recharged. As I age, the glowier my skin is the better. Having a product that delivers that without that greasy feeling is amazing.
The pricepoint is great for this product as well. I have been using one pump for my whole face for the last few weeks and there is still so much product left. I love the packaging; it doesn't get clogged either which is a benefit. Even for those with oilier skin, I think this would be a great product given the texture of it.

I struggle with dry skin, especially in the winter and spring months. Finding a great moisturizer that can give me the moisture I need has been a challenge over the years, and of course being in my 40s doesn't help. I was so excited when the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream was sent to me and it couldn't have arrived at a better time with the still chilly, windy weather.
First of all, the texture is a gel which feels so wonderful on my skin. It absorbs instantly into my skin and doesn't leave any greasy feeling that some "extra moisture" moisturizers do. Even in the t-zone where I happen to be a little more oilier, it gives me just the right amount of moisture.
I wear makeup on a daily basis and using a moisturizer that doesn't pill under foundation is crucial. This moisturizer leaves my skin looking dewy enough and acts as an amazing primer under my foundation and concealer. My makeup looks fresher as well which is a nice benefit.
This moisturizer has definitely exceeded my expectations. I have used other gel-type formulas over the years from the more "prestige" brands, and the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream gives those a run for their money. My skin looks radiant, and I am super happy with the results I have seen. The price point is great. I have been using this jar for a few weeks now, and I still have a lot left. I love that there is no fragrance as well which is another important factor with my skincare as I find fragranced products irritate my skin. I think this will be wonderful in the summer months as well given that it feels so light on the skin.

I usually take the Elderberry gummies and was a bit scared that a powdered Elderberry would either be too sweet or not taste great, but it's actually really yummy. Elderberry is wonderful for lessening the duration of viruses. I love that the Sambucol Black Elderberry has so many great benefits. I have already purchased this product! The price point for 30 packets is great too!

I was so excited to be chosen to try this Lancome serum! At first, I wasn't sure I would like it because it does have a scent to it but it is not overwhelming.
I do have combination skin and this just melted right in. It feels luxurious and I love that it eliminates a couple of steps in my routine, especially on busy mornings.
It leaves my skin feeling supple and moisturized all day both with and without makeup. It sits really well under makeup and doesn't make foundation pill like some serums do.
The price is a little steep, but when you consider that this product is replacing a couple, it's more justifiable. I will definitely consider purchasing this product when I've finished this one.

What an awesome experience! I was lucky to get a voucher from Chick Advisor to put towards my first order from Voila at Sobeys! As someone who has been primarily ordering grocery delivery during the pandemic, I was super excited to try something brand new and it is easy to spend $100 on groceries these days.
I really liked the ordering experience and the fact that not only do they have Sobeys products on the site, but they also have Farmboy and some Well.ca products. I love that they show the items that are on sale for the week as most of the other delivery companies do not do that as they are third party.
It was an easy checkout and there were plenty of time slots to choose from. I LOVE that they deliver as early as 6 to 7 am. That is fantastic and a game changer for me.
Delivery was super smooth and the person delivering the groceries was super sweet. He called me about half an hour before delivery, and as we live in a condo, I sent my husband down to grab the bags from him.
Side note, I love the colours they chose for their logo and colour scheme. The delivery truck is super cute too!
There is a $7.99 delivery fee but I found that to be completely reasonable as there are no other handling charges or fees and it's less than the $9.99 that the other big store players charge.
Overall, it was really a fantastic experience and I look forward to ordering again soon!

Even at 40, I still get terrible menstrual cramps and migraines. Motrin is the only medication that alleviates that pain super fast. I have a pretty sensitive stomach so I found that I need to eat something small when I take Motrin and I'm good to go. Motrin lives in my purse now. It's a must have for me. -
I absolutely love Snapple Iced Tea. The flavour is perfect. Not too sweet and is totally refreshing. I have already bought it again a few times and made popsicles with it. Definitely a nice treat when you want something other than water.

I wasn't a big fan of chai flavour until I tried Tazo's. It has quickly become a favourite and I drink a cup every morning, even before a coffee! I like the spicy warmth that it has and it isn't overwhelming as some chai tea can be. It is amazing with some frothed milk! I will be buying this over and over again. -
