The NOW Ultra Omega-3 - 1,000 mg capsules are great because they are not oily and sticky like typical omega 3 capsules. They also don't have a fishy or oily smell to it. They are odourless capsules, but they are much bigger than typical capsules so I wasn't able to consume it without water. They have no taste so they went down without a gag reflex from me. I am excited to see the long term benefits of this product but for now I do recommend people try it just for the odourless and tasteless capsule. -

I was really excited to try a pain relief cream that didn't have that typical smell and burn to it. This Myoflex 20% Maximum Strength 100g Pain Relief Cream is Canadian made a does not have a smell to it and doesn't burn or feel hot after application. However I was disappointed in its effectiveness. I've used it a few times on my thumb joint pain but it provided very little pain alleviation. I wouldn't recommend this product. -

Yummy yummy Hatch Coffee Maple Oatado and it's Canadian made! The product packaging is so darn cute and I like that it is travel size and easy to carry along. The flavors are great, with the coffee flavor bold and the sweetness from the maple syrup mixed in well. The Oat milk taste blends in well and is distinct at the back of the throat. This seems like a healthy on the go caffeine drink option and I definitely recommend it. -

The PanOxyl Acne wash is a wonderful cream cleanser that is gentle on the skin but also is a powerful cleanser. It doesn't froth up much on the skin but the skin does feel fresher and cleaner post wash. The skin above my upper lip dries a lot when using cleansers, but post wash this area didn't dry up as much.

I found the Butterball Applewood Smoked Turkey Bacon to be packaged well. There is a lot of liquid inside the packaging which I believe to be included in to the displayed weight of the product. The package is not resealable. The bacon slices are thin but wide and long when raw. When cooked I found the bacon to shrink almost 25% from its original size. The flavor I found to be very mid and could barely taste a smokey apple wood flavor. The only plus about this bacon in my opinion is that it has sliced meat in it rather than pulverized meat, evident by the meat threads in the bacon. Overall, I still prefer the original flavor.

I am glad that I got to try the TheraBreath Whitening Oral Rinse. The bottle is cute and sparkly. The liquid inside is clear and to my disappoint it did not have sparkles. But it's a mouthwash so I did an oral rinse with it and the flavor really disappointed me. It tasted like someone mixed flour or baking powder in it, however there is no cloudiness or particulates in the liquid. The smell is a strong minty fragrance and post rinse the mouth smelled fresh like mint for about 15 mins. The mouth felt fresh for much less time though- about 5 minutes. Overall I did not like this particular flavor option. On the whitening front, after using it for over 2 weeks I still didn't see any whitening effect on my teeth. This product lacks the sparkle.

Sleek and straightforward packaging with a twist that I really found cute. The flip top lid looks transparent but changes color to a bluish tint when left in the sun for some time. This also warmed up the product and upon application this initially has a white cast which goes away when rubbed in for a few minutes. It makes the skin greasy so I recommend using it on the body or the face without make-up. It is a very good value sunscreen with almost no fragrance and absorbs quicker than other sunscreen creams.

We were excited to get the Classic Superman 3-piece Roleplay Set by Spin Master, but it actually only includes two pieces, not three as advertised. The cape is made of a nice, flowy material with a bright color, and the front logo badge is securely stitched on. The grey 'metal bar' is flexible but good quality, and the kids had a great time pretending to be superheroes.
That said, the cape was too short for my 10- and 7-year-olds, even though they’re shorter than average. The straps attaching the badge were uneven, causing it to be lopsided, and the Superman logo on the back looked more like a template sketch than the logo.
Overall, the materials are good and it was fun for the kids, but the design details and sizing could use improvement.

I’ve been taking Swiss Naturals Cholesterol for the past three weeks. Although the pill is on the larger side, it’s easy to swallow and fits smoothly into my morning supplement routine. I take it after breakfast and haven’t experienced any bloating or stomach discomfort. The packaging is neat and secure, and the capsule has no unpleasant aftertaste. I also value that it's made by a reputable Canadian brand known for natural ingredients. While it’s too soon to comment on its effectiveness, I’d recommend it to anyone seeking a natural cholesterol reducing option. -
