I had the opportunity to try Blue Lizard Sensitive Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50. This is a mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin. I love that it's an SPF 50, plus it's water and sweat resistant. Because it's a thicker, mineral sunscreen, I have to really rub it in to my skin as not to leave any white patches. I don't mind the smell, as it doesn't smell like a typical sunblock that screams "I'm going to the beach". Making it good for daily use. I've been using the sunscreen on days where I‘ll be working outside more. So far so good. I'll continue use into sunnier weather and see how things go. -

I had the opportunity to try Tom’s of Maine Rose & Vanilla Deodorant 92g and I'm a big fan! This was my first time using a Tom's of Maine deodorant and my second time trying a natural deodorant. My first natural deodorant experience was not a pleasant one, but Tom's did not disappoint! First off, I was surprised by how much I love the Rose Vanilla scent - it's such a great combo! The deodorant glides on super smooth and lasts all day, keeping me feeling fresh, and legitimately dry. I did find that during times where I was really physically active, the odour protection didn't pull through as much as I had been hoping. I've continued to use the deodorant daily, and plan to purchase more in the future. :) -

I had the opportunity to try CLEAN RESERVE H2EAU Nectarine Petal. This rollerball perfume is a new must have! They've labelled the scent, Nectarine Petal, as part of the Fruity Musk family. I find it super light, a little sweet, and with a hint of citrus. I'm a fan of the scent, but wish that it was a bit stronger at times. The bonus with a rollerball though, is that it fits right in your purse for any additional perfume applications throughout the day. Bonus, it's a water based fragrance, so it's great for sensitive skin. I’ll be checking out the other scents, too! -

I had the opportunity to try AVEENO® STRESS RELIEF BODY WASH. This body wash is sooo calming! It has lavender, chamomile and ylang-ylang essential oils. I love the lavender fragrance, and could happily use more of it! While I shower, it gives me a relaxing, spa vibe, which is a great way to start the day! The body wash itself lathers well and leaves my skin feeling soft, with the hint of a lavender scent. The only thing I would change is the pump. I have to pump the pump four times to get the amount of body wash that I need. I would prefer a squeeze bottle option. -

I had the opportunity to try Giant Edition Monopoly, as a free product to review. FYI, I love board games! I have a large selection of games, including both regular and junior Monopoly, that way all of the age groups are covered. Giant Monopoly is for ages 6+, and was still a lot of fun to play for us thirty somethings! It’s faster game play than regular Monopoly, with 2-4 people playing in about thirty minutes. Everything about this game is giant! (We set it up on our bed instead of moving our coffee table out of the way in the living room.) The game “board” is a large, colourful plastic sheet, so it’ll also be perfect for playing outside on the lawn in warmer months. It comes with four tokens - the schnauzer, top hat, car and shoe. Each token has their own property cards and “Million Money Meter” which is a dial to keep track of your money, instead of dealing with paper money while you play. Took the first round for everyone to get over not having actual money, but once we did, the game was super fun! And because it’s so fast paced, it kept everyone involved. This is a great game to add to any board game collection!

I had the opportunity to try DAP AMP Advanced Modified Polymer All Weather Sealant, for windows, doors, siding and trim, as a free product to review. I’ve used different DAP products in the past for DIY projects at home but mostly for patch and repair work on a wall. This however is an all weather sealant, that is both UV resistant and still flexible at temperatures of -17• to 60•C. I used the sealant to re-caulk around the exterior of some of my windows. I’m really glad I did. The sealant was super smooth to apply, and I learned from my last mistake by cutting the opening to the tip a little smaller. A big bonus for me, is that there was literally no odour and clean up was quick, plus there’s a lifetime guarantee. I’ve already completed some other projects! Super happy with DAP AMP.

I had the opportunity to try Hero Mighty Patch Original. This is an emergency pimple patch, to help you rid your face of any zits, after leaving the patch on for 6-8 hours. Unfortunately, I didn't have the best of luck with the patches. When I get a blemish, it's generally a whitehead. I didn't find that the patch made too much of a difference after leaving it on. It dried up some, but was still there come morning. I wonder if they would work better on a red, pimple type blemish. I will give that a try when one pops up. Hopefully others have better luck! -

I had the opportunity to try the card game T@g Someone Who, as a free product to review. This game is a lot of fun to play! Think Cards Against Humanity meets scrolling through Instagram. There's a wide range of fun and colourful meme cards, so you're bound to have options to tag all of your friends with. You can play with 3 to 8 people, but it's best in a large group - the more the merrier! Some of the cards are pretty PG, but it's definitely for an adult only game night. Some meme card examples; "t@g someone who will be the most difficult old person to be around" to "t@g someone who sucks at mornings" to "t@g someone who is destined to become a cult leader". Mix with good company and adult bevvies, and you're in for a fun time! -

I had the opportunity to try Lancôme Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Anti-Aging Serum and unfortunately, I'm not a fan. Let me preface by saying that the packaging is absolutely stunning. If you want the look of luxe, this is it. However, the iridescent container is instantly covered in smudges and finger prints - you'll find yourself wiping down after every use. The concept of three different anti-aging power houses becoming one is a great idea. Each formula is supposed to squirt out of one of three holes. But my third hole was clogged the entire time I tried to use the serum. As a free product, this was annoying. But if I had purchased this for the high price of $170, I would be livid.
Using the serum itself didn't float my boat. Lancôme products have a fairly strong scent and this wasn't any different. Luckily it didn't last all day. I also didn't like the texture of the serum. That may have had to do with the missing formula. My skin was hydrated, but I didn't see any difference with my fine lines or dark spots. Without the third formula in play, I have no idea what was missing and if it would have made a difference with my daily use. I was just disappointed all around.
