My son devoured his Veggies Mixed Berry Carrot Mott's Fruitsations. Before, I always had trouble getting him to eat anything from a pouch but this time he ate everything and even practiced holding onto it himself. This was definitely a win and I will be buying more for sure! -

I love the smooth creaminess of the CeraVe Eye Repair Cream. It was easy to apply and in a small enough tube that I could take it with me when I travel. I am a new mom, so under-eye circles are a common occurrence. I haven't noticed much improvement there - but I definitely notice that my eyes are more hydrated. -

I recieve the CeraVe Intensive cream as part of the product review club and it was perfect for me as I got crazy stretch marks when my son was born a week and a half overdue in December. Those final weeks really did a number on my body. The CeraVE stretch mark cream felt light to the touch and wasn't oily. I was able to put it on after a shower and it rubbed right into my skin. I wasn't worried about having to wait to get dressed because I knew the lotion wouldn't wreck my clothes. I won't know if it helps my stretch marks for awhile, but I love how it feels in the meantime. -

I recieved CeraVe Diaper Rash Cream as part of the product review club with Chickadvisor. When I got the cream in the mail my son was experiencing some redness issues. I was excited to try out the cream and was so happy to see that it was a lotion as opposed to a thick paste. My son enjoyed as I massaged it into his skin. The lotion quickly soaked up and did not leave a residue on my cloth diapers. I am not sure about how well of a barrier protection it will provide since it does soak into the skin. I can't wait to keep trying it to find out. -

I bought Vaseline baby for after my son's surgery. I wanted a small tub that was as sterile as possible. It worked well for its purpose but in general I would avoid using vaseline products on babies. It contains petroleum which is a component in gasoline. It can't be good for their skin. -

Penaten has the WORST packaging ever. I recieved some samples at a baby convention and I couldn't wait to be done these ones. The quality of the cream was fine. It seemed to work when my son had some redness, but I just hated the container that the cream was in. It is small and thin and doesn't contain much actual cream at all. I also had a very difficult time getting out what cream there was. I would avoid this one in the future. -

Of all the diaper creams I have used, I prefer the sudocream. I recieved some free samples of various types at a baby convention and the sudocream is the only one that I am still using today. I love that the packaging is simple to use and the cream is not too thick. It has helped my son to avoid diaper rashes before they begin because I always add it when his skin starts to get a little red. -

I was looking forward to trying Trojan™ H2O Water-Based Liquid Lubricant in “Closer” for several reasons, but most of all because of the non-sticky formula. I love water based lubricants because they don't feel as oily as other options. With any lubricant, the worst feeling after getting a little "closer" is the clean up afterwards and the stickiness that some other lubricants cause. My husband doesn't like the feeling of ANY lubricant and I always hated finding sticky patches in random places on my body. Trojan's really came up with a winner here because even my man enjoyed using the lubricant! The best part... there was no sticky residue afterwards, no matter how much we used. Anything left on your skin dries without leaving behind any evidence. Now my husband and I can get in some quickies before our newborn wakes up and I don't have to worry about spending 20 minutes afterwards making sure nothing is left behind. I would definitely recommend Trojan's "Closer" lubricant for anyone who wants a little slip and slide without feeling gross afterwards!!

I had an opportunity to try and review the Sweet and Salty and the Butter Special K® Popcorn Chips. I received this product free to test. All opinions are 100% mine.
Pros
The chips had a definite plus on crunchy factor. They really are similar to popcorn in the texture, but are more satisfying since they are larger in size. Although there was a flavoured powder coating the chip, I did not find that it left residue on my fingers which was a definite plus on the no-mess side of eating.
The Sweet and Salty Special K® Popcorn Chips were amazing. They really satisfied both sides of cravings as it was neither overly sweet nor overly salty. There are only 80 calories per 20 chips. I found 20 chips to be a nice portion, and definitely did not feel guilty while snacking!
Cons
The Butter version of the chips had more of an artificial taste. I was disappointed in the flavour as compared to the excellence of the Sweet and Salty version which I had tried first. My boyfriend tried the Sweet and Salty chips as well and commented that they tasted stale (I disagreed and finished the box myself!).
Summary
I would absolutely recommend Special K® Popcorn Chips to anyone who is looking for a great snack option. I preferred the Sweet and Salty version, but the Butter popcorn chips really do taste quite similar to popcorn if that is a taste that you are craving. I am actually going to be buying more of the Sweet and Salty popcorn chips on my next grocery run. They are THAT good!

I actually do not like this product. I have read many reviews praising it's effectiveness, but I found that it just did not work for me personally. My combination skin is prone to blemishes and breakouts due to hormones. I found that this product was good for washing my face, but that it did not clear up blemishes or reduce their occurences. I would stick with Clearasil in the future. -
