I prefer natural remedies when possible - and heading off a cold or flu before it really takes hold makes a huge difference. I tried the Black Elderberry Immunity + Cold and Flu Relief Gummies yesterday when I was feeling just a little congested with a hint of a sore throat and earache. I don't know if it was the gummies or not, but I am feeling back to 100% today. I like the fruity taste. My only complaint would be the slightly grainy texture.

I'm a bit of a skin care junkie, so I was happy to try Lancôme Rénergie HCF Triple Serum from from Butterly for free in exchange for an honest review. The packaging is beautiful. First impressions were not good, though. The first time I tried it, the pump (which draws from three separate vials of hyaluronic acid, C + Niacinimide vitamins, and Ferulic acid) released an uneven amount of each. Subsequent pumps evened out. But when I tried it on my skin, after about an hour, I felt a burning feeling and decided to wash it off immediately. I gave it a second try the next day without the same burning sensation, so I'm not sure what that was about. The other thing I don't love about this product is the slightly sticky feeling that lingers on my skin after using. The price tag on this product at Sephora is $170, and frankly, if I'd paid that, I would be extremely disappointed and would be returning it. I use serums often and wanted to love this but did not. -
We have trusted Tylenol for years for our children's fevers and pain. A chewable tablet makes it easy to dose, and the fun flavours help! Much preferred by my kids over the liquid versions.

I have struggled with acne for over 30 years (ugh!) and despite prescription meds, still face breakouts daily. I tried these patches on one of the larger blemishes and I'm not sure if I didn't have great results because I put it on too soon (early swelling) or if because it was just a particularly bad one. The patches are comfortable, easy to apply, and I could see the swelling reducing (and the absorption of the patch) after leaving it on for one night. I actually ended up using 5 patches over 5 nights on just one blemish and while I definitely see the results, the blemish is still actively present. It's a really bad one though! I think the cost would be prohibitive for blemishes like this, but for regular acne I bet it would be amazing. I also shared with my tween daughter and she has had some good results. Depending on cost, definitely would buy again. -

This is like a drink you'd get at a resort, the kind you drink by the pool on a hot day - light and refreshing. It's gently sweet and tropical flavoured with a coconut base. It also has 65mg caffeine for a little energy burst. Great for mid-afternoon to rejuvenate with a drink break! -

Absolutely perfect cherry flavour, creamy and delicious. I love the chunks of cherry and chocolate. It's almost like a chocolate-covered maraschino cherry became ice cream - but better, because it's not sickly sweet and sticky like those can be. It tastes like the fancy ice cream shops' ice cream. This was so good I have already bought another tub! -

This has a lovely light and clean fragrance, not too overpowering. It foams up nicely and I appreciate that the pump dispenses a good amount, not too much and not too little. It's great for the shower for my older kids as it can be used on body and face, and is gentle enough not to irritate their skin. -

For dry skin on the kiddos, I really prefer a lotion that is not greasy, made for sensitive skin, and doesn't overpower with scent. This fits the bill, with a soothing lotion that glides on and keeps skin hydrated for a long time. My kids love the lizard character on the front and I love that it's something I can feel good about using. -

I've been using Colgate forever and they're always coming out with something new. The new Total has 12 hour antibacterial protection, whitens, helps repair early enamel damage (I'm a grinder so that's important), helps reverse early gum damage, freshens breath and protects sensitive teeth. I'm not sure there is more to ask for in a toothpaste. I usually like toothpaste on the mintier side, but I was surprised how long lasting the fresh breath is after brushing! -
