It's just far too early to know if they actually work.
I received 4 gummies so I can only vouch for how they taste. They have a fruity flavour with an interesting undertone that I can't quite describe. My husband loves them. I am indifferent.
They are a soft gummy and easy to chew.
That is all I can say about them at this point. Worth a try.

I received a full sized bottle of Lancome Renergie H.C.F Serum and have been using it twice a day for about two weeks now.
While it's a little early to give a true review, I will give my initial impressions.
First, the serum comes in a tube that contains the 3 ingredients. It dispenses a bit of each, separately, that you will mix before applying. The bottle is pretty but maybe a bit "cheap" looking for such a premium product. However, that's just a superficial observation. The scent put me off initially..not really a fan but I no longer really notice it.
The serum is a lovely texture and applies nicely. I can still feel it on my face for quite some time but I kind of like it as I have dry skin. It doesn't pill under my makeup or under my added mosturizer.
I really feel like this is firming things up. I am 53 and starting to notice my jawline and neck sagging a bit. Two weeks in with this and I swear I see a difference.
My skin tone appears more even as well.
I quite like this product and I am sad that I may nit have the opportunity to buy it again since it is rather expensive.
That said, it is a bit early in my trial...time will tell.
At this point though, I would certainly recommend it.

I received a small sample and was glad to give it a try. I have fairly sensitive skin and this oil did not irritate at all. It was fine. The smell did not bother me but I am not sure it did anything different than any of the other cleansing oils that I have used. I am not sure what the price is or if longer usage would yield better results but it was just "meh" for me so I likely won't bother. -

I tried this product but found it much too drying on my mature skin.
My 12 year old son used it regularly and is still using it. He has mild teenage acne with blemishes on his nose, chin and forehead. This scrub is messy so he uses it in the shower. He likes the smell...I did not.
It does help keep his skin clear if he uses it consistently and it does not dry his oily skin.
He also has pretty sensitive/reactive skin and has no problems with this.

My 12 year old son used these as part of a free trial. He has sensitive skin and the beginnings of hormonal acne. He uses these nightly and loves how easy and convenient they are. I feel like they really do help clear up blemishes quickly and help to prevent new blemishes. His skin is definitely looking better. -

This milk is great tasting and was definitely easier on the tummy than other mainstream milk. I stopped drinking milk many years ago and although I don't drink it I do use a bit in my coffee and I consume other dairy products as well. I did have a glass of this with dinner and was pleasantly surprised that it did not seem to bother me. The only downfall is the price. I'm not sure it will be a regular on our shopping list. -

My son loves these mixed applesauce treats. They are naturally sweet and healthy. The extra fibre is a bonus and does not change anything about the taste or texture. I sent him to school with these everyday and they were always eaten.
These were a hit with us and will be purchased again in the future.

We tried out the Dempster's Everything Bagels.
My son and my husband eat a lot of bagels...me...not so much.
I found the taste of these fairly pleasant but I was not overly impressed by the texture. To me, it was like eating round bread. Bagels should be dense and chewy in my opinion and these were not. On the other hand, my son and husband rather liked these so it really is a matter of personal preference.
I would not purchase these for myself.

I generally do not use a primer with my foundation so I wasn't overly keen on this item. It felt nice enough but I personally don't feel it made a big difference in the wear of the loose powder.
It's also a little pricey so it's a step I will skip.
That said...the loose powder foundation and the brush are fabulous.
