I was happy to receive this syrup for free in exchange for my honest review. It says it’s can be used for cough and throat, and I believe overall health immunity. My 8 year old is in good health but we wanted to try it now for flavour. She likes the smell and taste of the syrup. We will be using this to amp up overall health through the cold season. The ingredients make me feel comfortable as a parent concerned about giving chemicals to my child, that this is a better healthier choice for my family. -

I received the Paderno Non-Stick Champagne Frypan to review for my honest opinion.
You know you are an adult when you’re excited to try new cookware! This pan is large 31.5 cm and fits about 4 eggs for an idea of surface area.
The colour is beautiful, although it doesn’t affect the cooking I still like nice looking cookware. Made of heavy gauge aluminum, non-stick surface, silicone grip handle, good for all stovetops and oven safe up to 400 degrees this is a very versatile frypan.
Read the care instructions to ensure a long life span of this product! A little care goes a long way.
I tried my pan out with some fried eggs and it was perfection. I then did fried up some pemale bacon, which is known for caking up my other pans, and this wiped clean easily afterwards. So far I am impressed.

I had the opportunity to try the PanOxyl overnight patches.
I had a small bump on the chin that I could feel under the skin and it was red. So I applied the small, very sticky transparent patch to the area.
It stuck very well, blended in so wasn’t noticeable on my skin. I’m the morning I removed and washed my face and went on with the day. I applied again a second night and after two night I felt the bump was smaller and less red.
The area never became a full breakout so I consider this a win. What I am curious about is where did it go? Did the blemish dissolve under the skin?
I would like to try again with a blemish that was already fully out to see if it helps heal faster.

We have actually used this product for our children when they have had a fever or pain. They like the flavour which makes it much easier to administer. They chew and it’s done!
Within about 20-30 minutes the pain or fever subsided.
We prefer to take no medications but when we really need to this is a great and fast acting to help our children feel better. We often don’t need to administer a second dose as well.

I had the opportunity to test out the PADERNO 3.5 Cup Compact Food Chopper.
We cook most of our meals and snacks at home, so I was excited to give this a try. We have a hand chopper and a blender. This is the perfect in between appliance.
I decided to make my home made salsa and guacamole. I rough chopped my ingredients and threw them in. The tomatoes chopped down to a jar salsa consistency. My onion and jalapeño I was able to make quite fine and stopped half way to push the ingredients back down to the blade. For these veggies the low setting was great. I took out my veggies and then did my avacado which got nice and smooth then I added my veggies and seasoning for a quick pulse.
Clean up is easy by hand or top rack of the dishwasher. Doesn’t take up a ton of room in the kitchen.
I am excited to find new recipes and ingredients to try in this chopper. I would recommend!

I had the opportunity to try the Vanhoutte Caramel Vanilla Medium Roast, brew over ice Keurig coffee.
This coffee brews the same as your other Keurig coffee pods. Instructions advise not to use a glass for this. I used a plastic tumbler to brew, filling entirely with ice first and I used the medium button. I probably would use the larger button next time as I found it a bit strong for me.
The flavour is very nice. I added light cream and sugar and more sugar than I would normally use in my regular coffee to get the taste I prefer.
This is a great option for the coffee lover wanting an ice coffee option. This is not a dessert ice cap option. True ice coffee with a caramel vanilla flavour! Give it a try.

My family tried the Super Premium Plus Chocolate & Brownies ice cream from Chapmans!
This is a high quality smooth, creamy ice cream. The chocolate was my favourite part, but my kids love the bits of brownies and cookie dough throughout. They couldn’t wait to dig in and they were very happy with the flavour.
We will happily try the other flavours available.
This ice cream is nut free, egg free and made with real cream and you can taste it.

I tried the Parissa Hot Wax Face & Lip No Strip. and the Ultra Soothe Oil. I was given these products free in exchange for my honest review.
This comes with an instruction booklet which was very helpful. I chose to warm my wax on my electric stove top. It took about 7 - 10 minutes and some patience. It was hard to tell when it was melting underneath but I used the spatula to get underneath and turn the puck over to get things going and then was able to mix the wax to the recommended consistency.
I smoothed the wax thickly over my upper lip area, let it cool slightly and then pulled the wax off. I liked that no strips were needed at all. I also used the wax on my chin area. I found it worked very well to remove my facial hair.
I had no irritation with this product or redness at all. I like that the product is natural. I would say the wax cools pretty quickly so you need to work fairly swiftly if you don’t want to heat the wax up again. I will use the remainder of this wax up and consider purchasing in the future.
I really loved the oil afterwards to remove any left over wax and to soothe the waxed area. It has a nice light fragrance.

I am currently using this natural fragranced deodorant. It goes on smoothly, the scent is not over powering and calming. This has been providing 24 hour protection. It is cooler weather now so I can not say how it will hold up in the hotter weather.
I like that the packaging is all recycled and the product is not tested on animals and is vegan. I would say if your looking for a more natural option without parabens, aluminum and baking soda, give this a try.
