I received this for free for my review. I actually tried the spray before the gel, and I liked it better.
It was really easy to use since I didn’t have to rub anything in, and I didn’t end up with that peppermint smell on my hands — which isn’t a bad thing at all, I just have odd sensory issues with scents I can’t easily wash off. I wash my hands until the scent is gone - which doesn’t always work.
The cooling hit right away and felt pretty strong. I feel like it may have worked a little better for me than the gel, but I’m not totally sure why that would be. It was just more convenient and felt more direct, especially for getting quick relief on the sore spot.
Overall, I’d reach for the spray first.

I received Deep Relief Ice Gel for free in exchange for my review, and I’m actually really glad I got to try it. I had a pretty painful pinch in my back recently, and this ended up helping a lot more than I expected.
The cooling effect kicks in fast and gives that immediate relief that takes the edge off. It’s not greasy, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave your skin feeling weird afterward, which I really liked. I could still go about my day without constantly focusing on the discomfort.
What stood out most was that it helped make the pain manageable while my back healed over the next few days. It didn’t completely eliminate it, but it definitely made a noticeable difference.
Overall, I’d use it again for muscle aches or those random strains that pop up — it did exactly what I needed it to do.

I tried the Planthropy jackfruit dumplings and they’ve become one of my go-to easy meals. They go from freezer to plate in about 10 minutes, which makes them perfect for quick lunches, dinners, or even a snack. The flavour is really good and well seasoned, and the jackfruit filling is soft and comforting with a nice bite once cooked. They don’t try to pretend to be meat — they’re just tasty as they are. It’s a savoury, gently herbed flavour with a nice umami depth — more like a classic, comforting chicken dumpling than something bold or spicy.. I had mine with rice, veggies, and a quick hoisin-style sauce, but they’d be just as good on their own or paired with whatever you have on hand. They’re vegan and gluten-free, and even though we aren’t, we both really enjoyed them. Definitely the kind of freezer staple I’d buy again.

I like the size of the container, and the packaging is great. The pump bottle is very durable, which is important since the lotion is thick. It's very moisturizing and works fantastic. I work in the sun, so this is perfect—it has helped smooth out the skin on my neck and chest. Despite being a thick cream, it blends in well, isn’t tacky, and has no scent. -

These were a quick easy meal to make. I leave these types of meals for when I don’t have time. They taste great. I don’t like regular franks so this is a great alternative for me. No weird aftertaste or film in my mouth. The consistency was great. I didn’t find them rubbery. I did not boil my them I fried them in a pan.

Butterball Applewood Smoked Turkey Bacon
Made great tomato & turkey sandwiches. Delicious and easy to cook on an evening where I was strapped for time. This does not taste like pork bacon, however it is lean meat and healthier for you. I liked the taste and consistency. - Product... +

As someone who cannot stand the classic “sunscreen smell” (you know the one that screams summer beach trip even when you're at the grocery store), I was pleasantly surprised by this one.
🌿 It doesn’t smell like sunscreen at all—major win for my nose.
🦶🦵 I used it on the pale parts of my body (yes, that includes my feet and legs) before going swimming.
🔥 ZERO sunburn. Not even a hint of pink.
💧 And it wasn’t greasy, which is rare and appreciated.
Honestly, this stuff just works—and I actually enjoyed using it. Blue Lizard, you’ve got a new fan.
