A sun worshipper in my 20s, I started wearing sunscreen religiously in my mid-30s. But only on my face, because that's where I was concerned about wrinkles and sun damage. Fast forward to my 40s, and I'm regretting not thinking about my neck and chest, because that's the dead giveaway of my real age. Enter the Neostrata Triple Firming Neck Cream! I have only been using this for a little over a week and I'm already noticing an improvement in the appearance of my skin in this area. On top of the visual benefits, it just feels so nice, like a self-indulgent little treat. 5 stars! -

We have had our Noma Dehumidifier from Canadian Tire for six years. It still works like the day we got it. We live on an island so humidity is high here all year round, and our basement can get really musty smelling if we don't have a dehumidifier running. This one has been running pretty much constantly since we got it, it will automatically shut off when the tank is full but as soon as we empty it it runs full tilt again. We have had absolutely zero issues and it does a fantastic job of filtering all the grossness out of the air. The filter is incredibly easy to clean. I can't recommend this dehumidifier enough! -
OGX® Bond Protein Repair Sealing Serum

This serum was so thick and sticky, I could feel it in my hair after blowdrying. I have been using hair oils and serums for years so I am not new to this, I don’t feel like it was user error. However, I assumed that perhaps I used too much of it the first time, so I tried several times, each time using less and less product but I continued to feel like I could feel it in my hair afterward. I’m not a fan, and I wanted to be! -

I was not a fan of this conditioner. First of all, the shampoo made my hair SO tangly, so the conditioner had a huge job to do trying to detangle that mess. The second time I used it I fully brushed my hair before washing, then brought a comb into the shower to comb the conditioner through, but that didn’t even work. I feel like it dried my hair out too. -

I was excited to try this shampoo, but it made my hair CRAZY tangly, and it was absolutely miserable to try to comb through after I washed it. Also, it is heavily scented. I don’t feel like it did an effective job cleaning my hair either, I typically wash my hair every third day but with this I had no choice but to wash it every other day, it was getting so oily so fast! -

We started using PanOxyl last year when we received the face wash, toner and daily moisturizing lotion to try. We noticed an immediate difference in both my skin and my teenage daughter's skin, and have been using the products ever since. So we were stoked to receive the PanOxyl Body Spray this year. My daughter is a competitive dancer, and being under the bright lights of the dance stage, dancing full out, sweating, changing in and out of costumes that are not washing machine friendly...all of that wreaks havoc on her skin. This spray has taken care of that issue. She sprays it when she's doing costume changes, it dries immediately, and she hasn't had a single breakout on her back or chest this year. I have been using it as well, and it cleared up the little acne spots I sometimes get around my bra straps. This is another product we'll be buying over and over again.

I have been a huge fan of PanOxyl for the past year, and this is just another product from their line that I will be keeping in stock in my house. These little patches take care of the occasional pimple that pops up on my forehead or jawline once a month, but they’re also a must have item for my teenage daughter. They clear those pesky zits up while she sleeps and keeps her hands off them too. I wish I’d had these when I was a teenager! -

I was excited to try this based on the packaging alone, it is so fun to use with the little key to turn! It’s very aesthetic. When I was using it for the first time I was unsure, it feels completely different in my hair than any other shampoo I’ve tried. It does lather on my second shampoo, but not nearly as much as other shampoos I’ve used. And the conditioner is very thick, my hair doesn’t feel slick and slippery after rinsing out the conditioner like I’m used to. I thought it was going to be a nightmare trying to brush through it afterward, but it wasn’t at all. In fact, I was shocked by how smooth, soft and SHINY my hair was after blowdrying it. I had coworkers commenting on my hair after only using it one time, that’s how noticeable the difference is. I’ve only been using it for a week but I love how my hair looks and feels, and I think it’s going to continue to look healthier the longer I use it.

My daughter is 9 and in fourth grade. I’m also an elementary school teacher, and I teach a 4/5 combined class. This game is perfect for this age range. My daughter loves playing it, and it’s been an excellent math center for my kids at school. It’s a quick play time, the rules are simple and there’s no learning curve. There is some strategy involved, and the adding, subtracting and swapping numbers is excellent practice for math fact fluency. They’re having so much fun with it they don’t even realize they’re learning. The more they play the faster they get at it, and the more fun they have. This is a really fun addition to our games stash! -

Fruity Gourmand is my favourite family of scents and this one perfectly fits the bill. From the second I saw it was being released I knew I needed to have it, and the first time I smelled it in person at Sephora I fell in love. This smells really nice at first, but it dries down in the most incredible way on my skin. Wearing this perfume can make me feel dressed up and gorgeous even when I’m in sweatpants lounging around the house. It’s fantastic!
