Once I signed up for this promo offer (before I was selected to review it), like any good pet mom, I did some research. I went to my pet shop and asked a lot of questions about the company and about the quality of food, good for kittens etc. I was excited to learn that this is a Canadian Company and that they are intent on creating the best pet food money can buy and because it is grain free and good quality I wouldn't have to worry about age appropriate food or even the change to them would not be a shock...yay!!
Since this bag is pretty pricey I was excited that I was chosen to try it out. As soon as I got it I poured a bowl for Picasso and Synamon for their evening meal. Synamon went at it like a hoover (which is how she eats) and the change didn't seem to bother her. Picasso was a little more leery, sniffing it and licking the freeze dried pieces trying the kibble...it was their first exposure to freeze dried. He ended up finishing her left overs.
They are just about 4 months old now and they seem fine with it...they seem to eat less of this food at one sitting...I was finding when I left them a bowl before work and when I come home there's still some left. Whereas with the other food they would finish it. Now I guess I can't be certain if that's because they don't like it and only eat it because there's nothing else to replace it or because it fills them up...and I notice when I'm home all day they eat their meal and then graze during the day and probably do the same at night. Basically, I'm not running through the bag so quick, they poo less and it doesn't smell so bad (lol) like it did with other food I've tried. So I think their little bodies are using up the nutrients rather than excreting them and if i just add a little water to the kibbles it's like wet food....so in my mind that's money well spent. Although I have noticed that this company has a few different lines, one a little cheaper, that I may try out. Good work!

scotch essentials permanent hem bonding strips are great if you don't know how to sew or not a sewing inclined person. but it's especially great if you're pressed for time and need to get a hem job done quick. otherwise I would still opt for a proper hem job from a seamstress. this product is great, it leaves no mess behind on the garment but it's quite sticky and leaves your fingers a little sticky. I didn't see any residue seep through the sticky glue yet. wondering if I'll see one after a wash. not too crazy about the price either! will be great for traveling though. -

scotch essentials adjustable hem tape is perfect for last minute needed adjustments. for eample, I was getting ready to go out to a theatrical concert and my skirt was a little too long, I was so happy I got these adjustable hem tapes that I used them and presto, no need to hunt down a needle and thread and start a hemming job that could have easily taken 30-40mins. this was done in about 15mins. this product is even better for people who don't know how to sew. -

I found this product to be a good moisturizer for use anywhere on the body. It is fragrance free and packaged in a tube to protect the light and air-sensitive ingredients. But for stretch marks? I saw no change or improvements. I would consider using this cream as a wonderful option for dry-skin areas that don’t require sunscreen, above or below the neck. As well, it is likely a better choice for your evening routine as its richer texture may not be ideal under your sunscreen and makeup.
PROS:
• Includes an impressive mix of anti-aging ingredients.
• Substantial cream contains ingredients proven to repair and strengthen skin's barrier.
• Fragrance free and packaged to protect its light and air-sensitive ingredients.
• Affordable given its state of the art formula for dry, sensitive skin.
CONS:
• Cannot repair or improve the appearance of stretch marks any better than other moisturizers, because in truth there's not much that can be done to improve stretch marks.
• No SPF

CeraVe Baby Diaper Rash Cream helps to treat and prevent diaper rash and help repair and restore baby's delicate skin barrier. I found that it worked well and left a protective barrier that sealed out wetness without the thick, sticky mess that most other creams leave behind.
• Helped to treat and prevent diaper rash
• Protected chafed skin due to diaper rash and helped to seal out wetness
• InvisibleZinc helped treat, prevent and soothe diaper rash
• Three essential ceramides helped repair the skin barrier
• It has a unique non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, leaving no mess behind
• Lasted between diaper changes
In the end I felt this cream is much like the others, not special in anyway. I would buy this product if it were on sale.

Excellent fragrance-free moisturizer for the eye area or pretty much anywhere on the face. Helped skin look and act healthier and minimized signs of aging. I don’t like that it has a thick-lotion consistency, but I do like that it is packaged in a squeeze tube to protect the light and air-sensitive ingredients.
As most eye creams lack in sunscreen ingredients, this one is no different. Therefor this eye cream should only be used at night, unless you're willing to apply an SPF when used during the day. Although most creams with SPF are suitable for eye areas anyway.
Bottom line: well-priced and wonderfully formulated moisturizer for the eye area and face as it contains a beneficial array of anti-aging ingredients, is fragrance free, works well to moisturize skin around the eye (or the face), packaged to keep key ingredients stable during use, and inexpensive for such a powerhouse formula.
CONS: If used during the day, need to use it under a sunscreen rated SPF 15 or greater. Like most eye creams, including this one, don't contain sunscreen. During the day this is a serious problem because it leaves the skin around your eyes vulnerable to sun damage and does not help to prevent dark circles, puffiness, and wrinkles.
In short, this line is a real find! Just don’t use it during the day if SPF coverage is important to you.

i use this after every shower. love that there's no greasy stickiness left behind, and since I'm not a big fan of perfumed creams (which contains alcohol and dries out my skin more), it's perfect!
