I wanted to love this product, I really did, but I just couldn’t. I used it on my face (since it’s a facial moisturizer) and I broke out like crazy! Nothing else in my routine changed during this time, so it was very clear that the culprit was this product. I’m now dealing with some acne scars that I got from the break outs. What is shocking is that I’ve used products with colloidal oatmeal before and had quite good results (never broke me out.) This was also not just purging acne. I’m well aware that your skin can experience a period of purging whilst adjusting to a new product, but I’ve experienced purging many times before (during my quest to find the skincare routine that works best for me), and this was NOT purging. This was full-out acne brought on by this product. I also don’t have sensitive skin! I have extremely dry skin, but not sensitive, so again, I was really shocked by this outcome!
The other thing I really didn’t like, was that the product had a SIGNIFICANT white cast (which for anyone who doesn’t know the term, it’s when sunscreen appears white on the skin and doesn’t blend well with your skin colour.) I know this is a more commonly experienced problem for people that have darker skin, but I have a light olive complexion. This product should have had NO issue blending into my skin if it was able to do what it claims. Unfortunately, this product simply does not blend well to match skin tone (at least in my own experience.) I would have to rub it in for five minutes to get most of that white cast to go away, but even after all that, there was CLEARLY still white cast on my face. I honestly am really disappointed with this product; I wouldn’t recommend it to others and I won’t be using it again—at least not on my face. I’ve tried it on my body and it didn’t give me any body acne, it does however, maintain that white cast (so if you don’t like it when sunscreen does that, then stay away from this product.) For me though, I don’t mind this white cast too much if it’s on my body, since it ends up just looking like regular old sunscreen.

I received this product as part of a review program, and used it to seal my condo’s sliding doors and windows. The condo I live in was built 2 years ago and the building’s foundation settled pretty badly. All the seals on the doors and windows were not effective and were always letting in outside air + humidity. I had to run my heaters 24/7 to keep the place warm. This sealant absolutely fixed the issue. It’s toasty warm inside now and I’ve been running my heaters for 1/3 of the time that they used to be running for. This product is definitely worth it in my opinion.

I can’t vouch for this product’s long term effectiveness because I tried a sample of it, but I can definitely say that it is probably the best tasting gummy vitamin I have ever tried (and I have tried A LOT.) It quite literally tasted like I was eating candy, I think this would be a brilliant product to give to kids, they definitely won’t refuse it.
