Really excited I had a chance to try these Nair strips for free in exchange for a review!!
I tried these strips on my bikini area and Im not sure if maybe its my hair type which I dont think is very coarse, but it didnt work that well as some other brands I've tried. I was actually disappointed because this is such a well known brand with a good reputation. Ive tried other products in their bikini line and they work better than this one. This one just didnt work out for me. I had to go over the same spot a few times and no new hairs were picked up each time.
Good:
- the handy precut strip sizes handy to touch ups or smaller areas
- amount in the package
- great smelling after wax oil
- not having to warm it in hands or at all before use
Bad:
- didnt pick up much hair in first or subsequent pulls
- small size of strips really only make it useful for small areas, touch ups
I'll giving this another try as it might of been just a one off that it didnt work for me. But these won’t replace my current brand of strips unfortunately.

As a casual home handyman Im not that experienced with do it your self products much other than some simple patch ups. I've tried some small patching with sealant before but I tried a whole window this time as I #Got it free and thought it would be a good test for redoing a window with sealant that needed renewal. This product was really easy to use, not too difficult to extrude and dried as stated..clear. Looked good except some wiggly lines on my part. Took about 1 hr to set completely as the area I worked with was very cool in temp. As well minimal smell but not overyly powerful like other products I used. Would be happy to buy this again and will when its on special to finish another few windows. - Product received for free from Butterly.com in exchange for an honest review.

I was actually skeptical about this as I have tried similar non medicated products for my rashes and they havent worked or at least not as quickly as I would like. I can have some very persistant itchiness with my rashes but I tried this one and I worked really well and almost instantly.
It was red and annoyingly irritated when my clothing touched it but once I applied the cream it felt much more calmer and soothed. I also didnt have to reapply it after the 1st use and the rash hasnt come back. So Im really glad I got the chance to try this product and its so nice that its more natural than what I typically use for my rashes. This is also a decent sized product compared to other alternatives so it should last quite awhile.

I was hopeful trying this to help cut the cravings from smoking I do a little over 1 pack a day. The major thing I didnt like about this was the flavour was on the verge of disgusting and offensive. I wouldnt call it mint so unfortunately I only used it twice and couldnt take the flavour anymore and stopped using it.
As well as soon as I used it the first time I found it didnt cut my cravings at all I actually wanted a cigarette after using it.
Perhaps its not meant for someone with a high dependancy and my level of usage.
One thing I did like was the smart locking system, I think it would be finicky enough to put off kids from opening it by mistake. As well the size is quite handy as it fits in my pocket nicely and its light and I dont have to worry about pressing it by mistake when its in my pocket.

I was happy to try the D3 supplement for my child who is usually a picky eater and its difficult to get them to meet their daily nutritional levels.
I was surprised they were happy to take this supplement. I mixed it in with their yoghurt and it wasnt detected. I didnt try any of the handy recipes included with my package because I was sure my kids wouldnt want to try them.
The flavour was good and the odour wasnt too noticable.
I didnt notice any changes in the short time I used it but I'll keep using it as its always good to have the recommended amounts of D3

I was surprised when I received the Kinetic sand to try to find out that they seemed to have updated the formula. Ive purchased Kinetic sand in the past and found out the hard way that it can get stuck in the carpet and be hard to clean out as well as it would leave a strange trace of sand on your hand after touching it. I found this one to be way easier to clean and doesn't get stuck in the carpet and it leaves a clean feeling on your hand after touching not a sticky feeling.
The "treasure" toys included in the package were interesting enough for my 7 yr old and since they're into Minecraft now they were very suitable for creative play surrounding a Minecraft theme.
Package included a lock on the base for digging as well as multiple other tools for searching and re-hiding as well as the much sought after jewels. Once done everything fits back into the treasure chest easily and makes for no mess quick cleanup.
I have to say I was presently surprised with the new Kinetic Sand and would actually purchase another pack if it had another theme to it or new surprises to find. It also now includes real and in the formula which I find adds a interesting texture to the sand when playing with it and I find it more textile when playing with it the previous Kinetic sand as just soft this one has more texture to it which is better for sensory play. The sand is reusable and can have multiple uses its a toy that can be used multiple times and for multiple uses compared to some toys that are must purely novelty and you end up tossing it after you open it.
Only negative I noticed is after playing with the sand and if it gets on the floor there it does leave a bit of a slippery finish on the floor or surface possible from oils? But it can easily be wiped down after play.

I got a couple of these because I had a coupon and thought since it was name brand the quality would be better than the no name Ive been buying lately.
First the scrunge part had a weird texture to it and I found it a bit hard on my hands even with gloves on like a thick rubber layer on a sponge. Very hard to squish when you want to wash a corner or edge of something because it doesn't squish down. The scour side doesn't even clean better than your typical scour side of a sponge. I had a pan with some burnt on bits and it didn't get it clean even with some very hard scrubbing.
The sponge part I find breaks off quicker on the corners than non brand sponges too, I was surprised by this and I haven't been cleaning anything extra sharp.
Last point were in a heat wave at the moment and Ive noticed a weird smell around our sink and after getting rid of anything sitting around the sink and cleaning our the sink the smell was still there...I finally smelled the sponge and it was the sponge. Im not sure how to describe the smell but not pleasant from something that you use to clean dishes.
I will not be purchasing these again, after I go thru the pack I have. For the price/quantity compared to non brand its pretty much the same price for quality and the quality is a comparable to non brand sadly.

Bought this as a hand cream for my kids to use after all the hand washing they've been doing. But I found it super scented which I was surprised for a children's product. The scent is also pretty heavy, it does dissipate after rubbing it in but the smell is quite strong at first which isn't great for people with scent sensitivity.
The lotion though isn't very heavy textured and does soak into skin fairly quickly and it isnt greasy afterwards or sticky. Which helps with some kids being sensitive to using lotions.
I dont think I'd buy it again due to the fragrance, I would if it were a lighter smell, I personally found it overwhelming and surprising for a baby product. Pricewise is average for the size of the container and I like the pump function handy for kids.
