The worst part about wearing sunscreen is it really feels like you're wearing sunscreen! This isn't the case with NEUTROGENA ULTRA SHEER Dry-Touch Sunscreen! It goes on smooth without a trace of greasiness or shine and it absorbs quickly and completely leaving a dry finish. It doesn't leave a white cast either! So you will forget you're wearing sunscreen, but with a 60 SPF, you will be well protected. The product is formulated with helioplex, which provides effective broad-spectrum protection from aging UVA and burning UVB rays. On top of all of that awesomeness, NEUTROGENA ULTRA SHEER Dry-Touch Sunscreen is non-comedogenic, PABA-free, and recognized by the Canadian Dermatology Association. I tried the 60 SPF version for my fair skin, but the product is available in SPF 30, 45, 60, and even SPF 110! It's comforting to know that NEUTROGENA ULTRA SHEER Dry-Touch Sunscreen no matter what your sunscreen needs are and I'm so happy to finally find a sunscreen that doesn't feel greasy. Dry-Touch for the win!! -

I discovered Sambucol Advanced Immune Support at the opportune time as I’m currently battling the most recent bug brought home by my young daughter. The product has great levels of the ingredients you need to keep your immune system in tiptop shape - 50% of your daily vitamin C, 34% of your daily zinc, and 50mg of black elderberry extract - in every gummy. Sambucol is vegan and contains premium black elderberry with no artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives. Sambucol Black Elderberry is also delicious. The gummy is flavourful and has a great texture, making it easy to take. This product has definitely helped me this time of year when it seems to be a never ending stream of illnesses coming home!

After a long summer filled with pool parties and sunscreen usage, my skin was in rough shape, literally! Aveeno Tone + Texture Renewing Body Scrub was a brilliant find. Even after one use, my skin was significantly smoother and my skin tone starting to even out. It was very effective at smoothing out my rough patches quickly and making my skin feel much softer. Aveeno Tone + Texture Renewing Body Scrub contains oat and niacinamide to help nourish your skin as it exfoliates, leaving it silky smooth. Plus it contains NO parabens, soaps, dyes, or sulfates, making it super gentle on your skin. After about a week of use, my skin was completely revived. My skin tone is much improved, and the texture of my skin is nothing short of miraculous! I've never been silkier and my skin is so wonderfully moisturized, it's completely rejuvenated! I highly recommend this product for keeping your skin looking amazing! -

The craziest thing happened to me! We were visiting a cottage on a lake for the Labour Day long weekend. The weather was HOT so we basically spent the weekend in the lake. The last day we were there, the ministry notified everyone to NOT swim in the lake because there was a huge outbreak of blue-green algae. Literally the next day, I have my own outbreak of the biggest, itchiest hives you can imagine, covering my entire body! My poor skin was horrendous - completely dried out and cracking from itching so much. Aveeno Calm + Restore Skin Therapy Balm to the rescue! I use this product for eczema outbreaks in the winter, but did you know this product is also effective for relieving skin irritation due to rashes, poison ivy, and insect bites? It also works really well at quickly soothing and moisturizing hive rashes! Aveeno Calm + Restore Skin Therapy Balm is made with a triple oat formula that includes oat extract, colloidal oatmeal, oat oil, and ceramides, making it ideal for protecting dry, sensitive skin while soothing. It’s also hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, fragrance-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, dye-free, steroid-free and alcohol-free. It’s everything you need for quick relief, creating a hydrating barrier so your skin can heal. It’s the perfect product to have on hand for relief of both eczema and any other skin irritation. -

We were planning our annual end of summer pool party and I was in the storage room looking for something else when I spotted my Noma Advanced EverTough Christmas Lights and had a huge brain wave; Christmas lights don't only need to be used at Christmas! We have a deck that wraps all the way around our pool, so I used the Christmas lights to line the top of the railing that goes all the way around. The lights I have are multicoloured so it was such a fun display and everyone LOVED them! It really set the mood for the event.
Noma Advanced EverTough Lights feature weather-proofing and corrosion protection. A few days after our party, the lights were still up because I'll probably never get around to taking them down honestly, and a big summer storm blew through town. Super high winds, rain that hurts, the usual. The Noma Advanced EverTough definitely toughed it out and not a single clip was broken. They held up so well and the lights are so beautifully bright, I will be looking to purchase more from the Noma Advanced EverTough line this Christmas season to really make our home sparkle bright.

Living with adult hormonal acne is challenging to say the least! Challenging and definitely frustrating! I have tried countless products with varying levels of effectiveness. PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches is a unique type of product that is very easy to use. You simply chose a patch size that will cover your blemish and then apply the patch over the blemish and let it work. I applied overnight and there were no issues with the patch coming off and it was comfortable to wear. The patches are latex-free and contain no parabens, sulfates, fragrance, or dyes, so you don't have to worry about your skin having a reaction to the product. PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches are a hydrocolloid product that help eliminate blemishes by absorbing pus and fluids. I was happy with their effectiveness. Even after only night, the patches worked well to start drawing everything out, significantly shortening the time I need to deal with the same blemish. It was impressive to actually see the quick progression. With other acne products, my skin dries out quickly which just makes everything look worse and takes longer to heal. PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches also act to protect your skin, preventing your blemish from drying out, and helps facilitate quicker healing. Overall, I would highly recommend this product for adult hormonal acne and I will be keeping PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches on hand to deal with my breakouts. -

We've been using Tylenol branded products since my daughter was born and it is the only brand we trust for her for pain and fever relief. Children's Tylenol Chewables is the most effective product for relieving her pain quickly. In recent years, she has been dealing with growing pains in her legs through the night. Any parent who has dealt with their child waking up in the night crying in pain, knows that a children's pain medicine that works FAST is critical. Children's Tylenol Chewables delivers fast and effective relief. The chewable format is super convenient when your child isn't feeling well. It's easy for me and her to get the dose she needs quickly. Tylenol has been helping parents manage their child's fevers and pain for over 50 years, so they have expertise you can trust. Children's Tylenol Chewables come in great flavours, like Grape Punch, so it's not a chore to get your kids to take it, even when they aren't feeling well. And because they dissolve quickly, you can rest assured that your child is getting the medication they need quickly. Tylenol has been a trusted brand in our home since I was a child and it will continue to be our number one children's pain relief product because you can't beat its effectiveness. -

I had high expectations for the Vida Elite Series Clad Frypan from Paderno and I'm quite impressed with how well it performs with a variety of different foods and cooking methods. Vida Elite has a 3-layer clad construction, which provides even and fast heating. I found it didn't matter what I was cooking, the pan heated up quickly and the aluminim core distributed the heat evenly for perfect cooking. I've been moving away from non-stick cookware because I'm concerned about the health effects, so Vida Elite Clad Frypan puts my mind at ease with its 18/10 stainless steel interior, which is non-reactive to food. So what have I made so far in my new favourite frying pan? I made a full breakfast of bacon, eggs, and pancakes. I made a nice batch of chicken fried rice, which came out awesome. I even cooked a chicken dish in the oven using this pan. Yes, it's oven safe up to 500°F! I also love that it's dishwasher safe. I have used clad cookware before, so I know all the little tricks, like being generous with cooking oil to ensure the bottom of the pan is coated. A hot clad pan is also your friend in creating that perfect dish. People who are wary about making the switch, it's easy! And it would put your mind at ease to not have to rely on non-stick cookware. Overall, I'm highly impressed with the Vida Elite Series Clad Frypan. I would expect no less from Paderno and they have definitely delivered in terms of quality and performance. -

BAI Antioxidant Infusion in Costa Rica Clementine is a refreshing take on classic beverages. I've been looking for healthier drink options lately, and BAI meets those needs well. BAI Costa Rica Clementine contains only 1 gram of sugar and no artificial sweeteners. It's infused with tons of vitamins and antioxidants - 14 mg of vitamin C and 100 mg of polyphenols to be exact.

Not only that, BAI uses only natural colours and contains no artificial flavours. The flavour is fresh and citrusy without being overpoweringly sweet. The clementine flavour is perfect for a sunny summer day. Overall, BAI Costa Rica Clementine is a healthier alternative that is refreshing and tastes delicious. -
