To start with this product IS fragrance free. They absolutely follow through with the claim that there is no scent. After you wash your hands they are clean but there’s no residual smell.
It was met with mixed reviews in our home, my husband didn’t like it he felt his hands stayed sticky after washing. Our eldest daughter is indifferent and will use it, our youngest daughter loves it. She likes that it has no smell and enjoys the foaming soap. I also didn’t really like it as I too feel like it’s hard to rinse.
It’s not a bad product but not one I’d purchase again. However, if you need fragrance free this absolutely is!

I was a little sceptical when we receive this product to review. I have smelled many products that claim to be fragrance free that aren’t. This one really is fragrance free and if scent is a problem for you then I’m confident you’ll really like this. The remainder of the product is also good. It performs just like every other dial product does. -

I was so excited to see that Canada Dry has removed corn syrup from this product line!!! Seeing cane sugar back on a label was wonderful, we were super excited to give it a try.
That's where the excitement ended. Nobody in our house can drink this. It's bitter beyond any product we've ever tried, with a bizarre after taste that is sweet. It doesn't mix well, it doesn't accept muddled berries, it's really bad.
We WILL be buying the other products in the line in hopes of finding a winner because we want to support them introducing better ingredients back in. This just isn't the one for us.

We've counted on Polysporin for years to keep us infection free. Works for kids at school or a husband at work, OR a clumsy me at home. I love that you need very little and it goes a long way. We also like to use it without a bandage, soaks in really quickly and protects us. We already had a tube but we're thankful to have received it for free to try too. -

I love the small of this hand soap! I'm really, really fussy about the smells in our bathroom. I love that it's gentle on my hands and leaves the washroom (and your hands) smelling lovely once you're finished.
My only complaint is if it doesn't fully get rinsed out of the sink the bubbles leave little blue marks on the sink when they dry.

So, I'm constantly battling soap scum in our showers. I've used different cleaners and nothing has totally worked. When I received these for free from ChickAdvisor, I decided to re-purpose one to the bathroom.
A little castile soap, baking soda and my new Scrunge and it KILLED the soap scum. Worked amazing and my arms weren't sore from using it.
I've also used it on our pots after a turkey dinner and on my glass top stove, it's worked well on all the surfaces.

Our applesauce loving girl was thrilled to receive the ability to try a new flavour! She'll eat anything mango or peach and this fit the bill. To her the mango taste was the strongest and she did mention that the texture was a little different from her other applesauces. She wasn't unhappy though, she just said it was "new".
These little packages are great for a quick breakfast on the way out the door or for a school snack. Not to mention a great addition to my baking. Often times I switch applesauce for butter in a recipe and these just give an added "kick" of flavour. We were given the opportunity to try this applesauce for free but will definitely be purchasing it again later.

This product does a good job of a few things, but none of them are really what it said it would do, so it's a bit challenging to figure out how to review it.
To begin with, it smells WAAAAAYYYY better than the other products in the line. It has a clean, maybe mint scent, reminds me of a salon brand on shampoo that (rhymes with "psychology"). It lathers up really well and I don't need much for my long, thinning hair. It arrived in the mail and I was so pumped to have been given this product and opportunity for free!
It removes ALL of the build up from other products without leaving my hair feeling stripped, though I did need to follow it with a conditioner because of the fly aways.
I also found that when I use this shampoo every wash my hair gets increasingly "tangly" and it's hard to brush. I think it's best to use it once a week or so, just to remove the product and life build up.
As for thickening I don't find it to make my hair thicker, though without the weight of product build up it does look fuller.
I'm recommending this to a friend who has thin hair because I think it'll give her a bit of a boost, maybe like a volumizing shampoo but it really doesn't make it thicker.

I didn't find this created ANY volume at all. I was excited to be given the opportunity to try it for free, but when it came the first thing that hit me was the off smell of it.
I decided that I'd be able to ignore the fragrance if it worked. It didn't make my hair look thicker AT ALL it made it greasy looking. Vichy usually makes products that I can be happy to use, this one though, won't be used at all.
It also doesn't specify if it should be used wet or dry. I'll be reaching out to the company, maybe I didn't understand it's usage and I should try again.
