Children's Advil Sugar-Free Dye-Free Berry

I received a free sample of Children's Advil Sugar-Free Dye-Free Berry from Smiley 360 in return for my review.
Yesterday my six year old niece complained or a sore throat while I was getting her ready for school. The directions on the box where easy to read and follow. She questioned why it was white so I told her it was white berry, like white grape.

She said she didn't like the taste, and after her complaint I put a drop on my finger and tasted it for myself. As an adult it tasted as i expected, but I don't believe she liked the flavor of the artificial sweetener in the product; the label reads that sucralose is one of its ingredients.

As I am someone who is raising a child, I like the Sugar and Dye free concept, but I believe that the taste of the sucralose is a bit too strong for a child's taste buds, especially the picky children. as it is a product for children, maybe it would be better to make a product with less sugar than the original product, and if needed use sugar and sweeteners combined.

o.b. Pro-comfort tampons

I received a free 40-count package of o.b. Pro-comfort tampons. They arrived literally two days before my period which was nice. They don't have applicators which makes them easier to hide in my purse or pocket. The wrapper is discreet and there is no need to wrap it in toilet paper to hide the fact that you are on your period. They are easy to put in and take out. The level of comfort provided was outstanding, I could barely tell that I had a tampon in. They absorb well on my moderate flow days. This sample was sent to me for free by Smiley 360 for the purpose of my review.
