NIVEA Essential Lip Balm
I really love this lip balm. It goes on smooth and keeps my lips happy and moisturized. Also, beccause it is in a tube it is much more hygienic to use when you are out. Great lip balm at a great price!

With my little cousins wedding and vacation to the Canadian Rockies around the the corner, I was super pumped to receive this POLYSPORIN® Blister Treatment from ChickAdvisor for review.
The packaging advertised that this product acts like a second skin to support the natural moisture balance, relieve blister pain immediately, protect and cushion against rubbing, and offer fast wound healing. Knowing that we would be doing a lot of mountain hikes, it was perfect timing to test it out!
How it works: Before applying, I cleaned and dried my heel as best possible. It's important that the blister area is free of creams and oils, otherwise the product will not stick. Once dry, simply unpeel the paper, and apply cushion firmly over blister, smoothing edges down well. Voila! Good as new!
Results: I put this package in my purse, knowing it would likely come in handy during our trip. Very happy I did. Halfway up Sulphur Mountain, my new hiking shoes started rubbing against my heel. At first, I tried to ignored the pain (thinking I should wait for a blister to appear) to provide an authentic review, but when it started burning, I decided to heck with it --I needed relief! Within seconds of applying the treatment, my heel was as good as new! In fact, I think the product even prevented the blister from ever full forming. The treatment cushioned my heel for days and even lasted through a night of dancing in heels at my cousin's wedding later the following day.
Bottom line: I love this blister treament. It's MUCH more effective than regular Band Aids at protecting blisters. Better yet, if you put this at first sensation of pain, you can avoid getting a blister at all! Highly recommend.

I purchased this item less than two weeks ago. I am very pleased with it. I love the splash of purple and the tan bed skirt looks great. I also love the additional throw pillows. Elegant is the best way to describe it.
The cotton overlay is soft and provides a medium level of warm. This comforter is great for those who love to sleep in a cold room. My only desire would be to have added trim around the pillow shams. The shams almost look like regular pillow colors. You can only distinguish between the sham and pillow covers by their cut and the floral pattern on the sham.

As someone with three children who are always coming and going (and a husband who is always losing his keys!), I was super excited to receive the #SchlageTouch Keyless Entry Lock as a test product in the mail.
Installation is a breeze provided your lock it the same size (ours was smaller than regulation so we needed a 2 1/8 hole saw). But if you have a standard lock, all you need to do is remove the deadbolt and install this one in it's place then pass a wire through the hole to connect. Once the battery's in and the cover is on, you can set up your entry codes.
I love the fact that we can set up different user codes for each forgetful family member. I also love the fact that the keypad isn't high gloss. We jokingly told our 10-year-old son it was his job to press each number every day to throw off any theives attempting to break our code. But since the keypad is finger-print resistant so you don't have to worry (like my son) about finger prints giving away your code.
Schlage Touch Keyless Entry Lock is a godsend. It is sleek without sacrificing strength. It easily fits between our front door and screen door. It even illuminates the numbers when needed at night!

With three children (two going to summer camp and one in daycare), I was ecstatic when I received this Mabel's Labels Limited Edition Camp Pack as a test product in the mail. The pack includes a collection of UV resistant, waterproof labels and personalized tags, designed perfectly for everything that goes to summer camp and/or daycare.
No need for ironing! The labels are high quality stickers that don't fade or peel. They're easily applied to clothing, shoes, and hats. Once applied, these stayed where they were supposed to, even after four washes! I was amazed. Not one label fell off and they all looked the same as they did when I first put the labels on!
The pack also comes with two metal UV resistant tags that attach by chain to your child's back packs. At first, I had a little bit of trouble snapping the tiny ball in place. But once I realized the chain was good quality and would not snap or break, it easily went into place with a little pressure.
I would recommend this company and products without hesitation. They look great, they're resistent to fade and peeling, and they're super easy to apply. Definitely the best method for labeling!

This is the best foundation brush for its price point. The bristles are soft and dense so it makes it easy to get a good coverage with little blending. It's also a great multitasker, I use it mainly to apply my liquid foundation and I love it for that purpose but I have also used it for powder, bronzer and blush.
The Real Techniques brushes are make out of synthetic hair so they dry fast after you wash them.It's super soft, I would definitely recommend this, for the price and the quality that you get it's a bargain.

I was overblown by the gentleness and efficiency of this product. It works wonder on your skin. I have extremely sensitive skin so I react easily to harsh products. I had no reaction to this product except for good results. My skin feels soft, clean and unclogged when I wash with “Clean Mineral Facial Cleanser”. This is a sure winner for me and I highly recommend this product for anyone who has skin problems. Plus you only need a small amount to clean your whole face and neck, which is great and makes for the product to last longer. -

As someone with sensitive skin, I applied this product conservatively when I first received this Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep as a test product in the mail. By morning, I was running to Shoppers Drug Mart to purchase a back- up.
You will love this new Vichy product. First of all, it's PINK (it's makes me happy just seeing it on my bathroom shelf)! But more importantly, it's hands down the best sleep mask you'll ever find.
The texture of Idealia Skin Sleep is sublime. It's rich, yet has a balmy gel texture to it. You'll be surprised how intensely packed this lightweight balm really is. When you first put it on your face, it seems thick and slightly tacky; however, within minutes, it is completely absorbed. By morning, your face will appear plumper, more rested, and super hydrated. Results were actually obvious after first try.
It's seriously beauty in a jar and I'm in love!

This semi-hard cheese is delicious when grilled or fried, and knowing its Canadian-made makes it taste even better. I cut this into half inch cubes, coated it in corn meal, and fried it in olive oil to make warm Halloumi cheese croutons for my argula salad. Delish! Highly recommend :) -

This Backyard Creations La Palma Woven Swivel Glider comes with seat and back cushions with ties. The smooth swivel action allows for rocking, swiveling or both. The durable all-weather wicker is hand-woven and is suitable for either the outdoors or in a covered patio or enclosed porch setting. We keep our set outside in full sun all year long (we packed cushions in winter but the rest was covered in snow) and it has held up perfectly! 100% recommend. I get tons of compliments! -
