I recently received a free sample of Nair Wax Ready Strips with White Lily Extract. I have never waxed or used wax strips before. So I very carefully read through all the instructions and followed them. Hair must be 1/2 inch long and must clean and dry the area first. No need to warm the strips as they should be cool or cold to apply. Hardest part was ripping them off quickly. It took a bit of practice but eventually I got the hang of it. I’m not really a waxer but I think this would be a great portable option for those who like to wax. Sadly I don’t think waxing is for me.

Was really excited to try out Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch original pimple patches. Love that they make my pimples disappear overnight and so amazed that they didn’t move or fall off while sleeping. They really live up to their “mighty” name as they work so well at getting rid of my unwanted pimples especially right before a big date or event. -

Recently had the opportunity to try Sambucol Black Elderberry Advanced Immune support gummies. We are currently in the middle of cold and flu and COVID season, anything I can take or give to the family to support our immune system is greatly appreciated. Wonderful that these gummies are suitable for children over 4 years of age as it makes taking them a breeze. Very tasty little gummies that are quick and convenient to take when feeling under the weather. A simple and effective and portable way to boost your immune system on the go. Loved that there are no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

I was very excited to try out Aveeno Tone + Texture daily renewing lotion. I have always had bumps and darker spots on my knees and elbows, and since I have medium brown skin. I was very excited to use this product and see if it actually reduces the bumps and the darker spots. After using this product for a week, I have noticed my skin tone is more even but haven’t noticed a change in rhe bumps on my knees and elbows. Hopefully if I keep using this product it will reduce their unwanted texture. -

I was so excited to try PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches. They are simply the best treatment for that unwanted pimple you always get right before a party or a big event. These patches are amazing!! So easy to use, after cleaning your skin you just peel one off and gently put it on your pimple. I did not expect them to stay on through the night, but I was so impressed that it didn’t move at all. It was actually on my forehead in the exact same spot I put it in the night before. There are 2 sizes, I guess depending on the pimple size, or you could cut the big ones in half of you only have small pimples. They didn’t dry out my skin, and took away the redness and bump that comes with the inevitable pimple. Gave a few to my daughter to try and after the first use she wanted to know where she could buy some more of these. Such a wonderful product that works overnight while you are sleeping. Loved that they have no colour to them so they aren’t even noticeable when you put them on. Such an awesome product and one that I will always have in hand for the unwanted pimples that always pop up when least expected. -

I was so excited to receive the Paderno Maple Hardwood Roast Cutting Board 12-in x 18-in. It is such a beautiful and sturdy cutting board. I have never had a wood cutting board before so be forewarned you need to treat them with mineral oil BEFORE using. So I quickly purchased the Paderno Mineral Oil to seal my board before use. I loved the look of the maple wood and how you can use both sides. The grooved side it great for cutting juicer items like melons as the liquid collects in the grooves instead of dripping onto the counter. Makes for much easier cleanup. The flat side is wonderful for larger items like chopping nuts or chocolate for cookies. There are some tips for keeping the board lasting a long time, like not soaking the board in water and drying it vertically not horizontally. Also you have to keep treating it with Paderno mineral old, to keep it looking beautiful. I will keep this board for produce and basic chopping of cooked products but I wouldn’t recommend using it for raw meats. -

Recently tried Bai Antioxidant Infusion Ipanema Pomegranate flavour. It has only 10 calories and 1 gram of sugar. This is a very tasty and refreshing alternative to water or a sports drink. It has significantly less sugar than juice but packs a lot of natural fruit flavour in each bottle. The pomegranate flavour was very tasty and tart. A very thirst quenching and delicious beverage during my workout. Keeps me hydrated and cool while doing my cardio. It also contains 65mg of caffeine which gives a nice boost after an exhausting workout. -

I was so excited to try Chapman’s Super Premium Plus Cookie Jar Ice cream. I love all Chapman’s products as they are a wonderful Canadian company that makes ice cream with actual dairy. Cookie Jar ice cream was perfectly creamy with a brown butter flavoured ice cream base and lots of cookie pieces and cookie dough mixed in. It was a flavour explosion in my mouth. From oatmeal cookie crumble to caramel cookie bits to chocolate chip cookie dough pieces to chocolate cookie chunks. Every bite was delicious and different than the previous bite. My only complaint was that I finished half the container in one sitting. I obviously needed to do a good amount of research before I reviewed the ice cream. I love ice cream and the Chapman’s line of products is better than any premium ice cream I have tried either in store or in the grocery store. I am very excited to try out all the other flavours offered in this line. Such a delicious and cooling treat on a hot summer day. Keep up the great work Chapman’s. -
