I got to try and review the Lubriderm Advanced Moisture Therapy Lotion for itchy, extra-dry skin which came at just the right time. Seasonal allergies are everywhere so my skin has never been so itchy. Additionally, I have very dry skin year-round, with some intensely dry patches all over my body. I tried the Lubriderm lotion and was pleased with the results. Most lotions for dry skin tend to be greasy, but this one is not at all It also absorbs very quickly into the skin, making it easy to use on the go. It is odorless, which makes it perfect for dry and sensitive skin. No redness appeared after use, nor a burning sensation. Ceramides are one of my favorite active molecules in products because they generally work very well and do not irritate me. I feel like this lotion acts as a barrier to my skin, applying hydration and moisture, and it lasts a few hours before needing to reapply it! I am seeing a visible difference after only one week of use in combination with the Lubriderm Body Wash. I am liking those products very much! -

I got to try and review the Lubriderm Advanced Moisture Therapy Body Wash for itchy, extra-dry skin which came at just the right time. Seasonal allergies are everywhere so my skin has never been so itchy. Additionally, I have very dry skin year-round, with some intensely dry patches all over my body. I tried the Lubriderm Body Wash and was pleased with the results. With such dry and sensitive skin, it is difficult for me to find a shower gel that suits my condition. The fact that it is unscented is definitely a plus, as perfumes often cause redness and a burning sensation all over the skin. This one leaves my skin cleaner, smoother, and hydrated. It does not remove the moisture barrier, so my skin really feels hydrated even after showering. Ceramides are one of my favorite active molecules in products because they generally work very well and do not irritate me. I am seeing a visible difference after only one week of use in combination with the Lubriderm Lotion. I am liking those products very much! -

I got to try and review the Crank Coffee's Cranky Pants, and it was an awesome test to do! I am a big fan of coffee in general, but once I tasted the freshly ground coffee beans, I could not go back. The Crank Coffee company sent me a bag of their dark roast coffee Cranky Pants and what a lovely discovery it was. This coffee is a good match for my strong coffee taste. The Cranky Pants has a great woody flavour, with a chocolate aftertaste. It is creamy, and even with milk, the flavour is rich in the mouth. It is not bitter at all. The fact that Crank Coffee company is fairtrade and organic also is a plus in my opinion. I will surely buy this again and fully recommend it to people like me, who love a strong cup of coffee to begin the day with!

I received a sample of this Sarna Bug Bite Patch to try out. I spend most of my time on weekends walking my dogs or hiking in the woods. Whoever said forest clearly said a lot of insects. Some manage to get to us and bite. It is really frustrating in the moment and can cause a lot of itchiness and discomfort. Sarna's Bug Bites are a game changer because they are really small and practical to put in our backpacks without making it heavier. It is simple and easy to apply, and provides soothing and effective care right away. No mess, and really quick to process. We can continue hiking without being bothered by the annoying bug bites. Also, being allergic to latex, i appreciate it being able to use a product like this, which is quite rare. -

I had the chance to taste the famous purple corn from PurplesFul Snacking in two different flavors this week! I have to say that I did not know anything about purple corn before tasting these, so I dig a little bit to nourish my curiosity. At first thought, purple corn seems odd – tempted to say it is full of GMOs. NO. Big mistake. It is in fact non-GMO, compared to traditional corn, and its color is due to the huge amount of antioxidants and anthocyanins. Knowing that, I find it super cool to do a snack like this with this kind of corn and makes It easier to understand why it is healthier than other popcorns.
I tasted the Sea Salt popcorn from PurplesFul Snacking at first. I am a huge lover of buttery/salty popcorn, I was afraid to be disappointed with just sea salt. What a surprise to discover the texture to this popcorn, making it absorbs all the flavours, and it is in fact really tasty! The sea salt flavour is well present, and the corns are softer and smoother than usual. The taste is pretty good, and the best thing about it, is that you do not have to feel guilty to eat a lot!!! Really surprised when looking at the nutritional chart (surprised in the good sense of course!). It will for sure be a snack I will buy again soon.

Knowing that, I find it super cool to do a snack like this with this kind of corn and makes It easier to understand why it is healthier than other popcorns. I tasted the Cheddar and Jalapeno popcorn from PurplesFul Snacking at second. I really love what has cheese in it, but not a big fan of spicy things like jalapenos. I gave it a try and found that this popcorn is flavorful! You taste at first the cheddar, and then the jalapeno’s flavor comes, and it is super spicy. The texture is smooth and soft, which explains that the flavour is really well absorbed and is very present. Jalapenos is a little bit less my taste, because I do not like spicy things in general, but I enjoyed trying it. I saw that there are a PurplesFul Snacking with just cheddar, and I will surely give this a try in the future, considering I really like the cheddar taste of this popcorn, but I tolerate a little bit less the spicy side.
I find it admirable that this Canadian company donates a percentage of its profits to local charities. Also, I received a handwritten note in the package, and I thought it was super cute. I easily sense that they have a strong sense of value and respect, which makes me appreciate them even more. I will for sure continue to buy those products in the future, which will make many healthy and fabulous snacks!

I got to try the Lancôme Rénergie H.C.F. triple serum eye for a few days now and I have to say I love it! I do not use eye serums regularly, but I tested this product thoroughly and I can say it makes a difference in just one week! I was hesitant because I have very dry skin and am sensitive to certain products, but this one moisturizes the skin around my eyes and doesn't burn at all. I did not feel any discomfort during application nor after. The texture is non-greasy and is well absorbed by the skin in just a few seconds! This serum is an anti-aging eye serum that includes hyaluronic acid, vitamin B, and vitamin F, all separated in a container for maximum effectiveness possible. After a week, my eyes are less puffy, the surrounding skin is smoother, and I cannot wait to see the wrinkle reduction effect! The scent of this serum is very light, almost odorless. Plus, the bottle is super cute and chic! One press is enough for both eyes, otherwise it is too much. Great addition to my routine! -

I've had the opportunity to try out the recently released L'Occitane artichoke body cream for several days. I tend to have really dry skin, and being on my feet all day causes my legs to feel tired and swell. I also have numerous varicose veins and cellulite. This artichoke body cream is simply FABULOUS! I have to massage the cream on my body, especially on my legs in my case and see the magic. Honestly, i feel the lightness immediatly and the heaviness that was bearing down on my legs vanishes. I sense a feeling of warmth and coziness enveloping my legs. Additionally, it keeps my skin moisturized and feeling softer, lasting through the night when applied during bedtime routine. The body cream is very easy to apply, non-greasy and has a particular but pleasant scent. At first, i was not sure about the fragrance artichokes give to this cream, reminiscent of a green field, but now i really enjoy it. You cannot get passed the fragrance, since it is really present in this body cream. At last, the packaging is really nice and i love the effects artichoke leaves are doing. I can see a slight change in my skin's tightness after one week, but it's difficult to determine for certain at this point. I definitely plan to purchase this product again and recommend it.

I got to try the Armani Prisma Glass Lip Gloss in the shade 01, which is the naked one. I wear lip gloss on a regular basis, since my lips tend to be very dry. I tried the Armani Prisma Glass and it is a game changer!!! It is very easy to apply, and it stays on lips longer than other lip gloss i have tried. I can drink my coffee, brush my teeth, etc and the lipgloss remains in place! It is non-sticky, and can be apply directly on lips, or on another lipstick to provide a beautiful glass finish. Also, it is odorless, and the bottle is very luxurious and beautiful. My lips are also well hydrated, and i see no signs of dryness. I really love this lip gloss, and i might also buy another shade! -
