Going Through Life's Changes With Poise

 

 I, along with other select BlogHer bloggers, received this fabulous sample package of Poise products recently to try out and review! It may not be easy to talk publicly about the bodily changes that pre-menopause and menopause bring, but I believe this generation of women has been the most open and intelligent of any prior generations when dealing with the changes their bodies go through in all the stages of life. We can certainly help the younger generations of women by continuing to share our experiences.  Fifty million women across North America are approaching or experiencing menopause and most have an average of five menopausal symptoms, although no two experiences are exactly alike.  The 2013 Product of the Year award-winning Poise Feminine Wellness line was introduced to help women approach life's changes with confidence. The line consists of five products designed to help women feel fresh and stay cool.

The line includes:

 

 

Body Cooling Towelettes that offer an instant cooling sensation. Gently wipe the towelette on wrists, chest, or neck to feel cool and comfortable. Featuring a portable, re-sealable package, these towelettes are easy to use anywhere you go and were my personal favorite of all the products I tried!  If there is one change that I find most uncomfortable, it is having a hot flash. Having these towelettes handy in my purse, to use whenever a need arises has been very gratifying. The cooling sensation they provide lasts a long time and gives me welcome comfort.

Poise also offers a Roll-On Cooling Gel that helps you feel comfortable and refreshed. Squeeze the tube and gently roll the cooling gel on the wrists, chest, or neck for a cooling sensation that lasts up to 10 minutes.  

 

 

The Personal Lubricant provides long-lasting lubrication to enhance your intimate experience. This lubricant features an easy-to-use bottle and is made without Fragrance, Glycerin, or Parabens. I like that it has a non-messy pump applicator, that the gel is clear, not thick or watery, and has no discernible scent...

 

 

Feminine Wash provides daily freshness from odors with a unique formulation that is pH balanced for your intimate area. Glycerin and Paraben free, this gentle wash will help you feel clean and confident.  I found that it lathers nicely and rinses well. It really does work well at reducing feminine body odor.

Poise also sells Panty Fresheners that have a fresh and clean scent that lasts up to four hours. These discreet, hypoallergenic fresheners stick to the outside of your undergarments so you can confidently go about your day.

 

 

My body has been getting a workout lately between shoveling the snow from our home's three-car driveway or walking the winding, uphill trails in our neighborhood. Soon, I will be taking care of my granddaughter when my daughter returns to work in her profession.  It is nice to know there are Poise products that I can rely on to help keep me cool, fresh, and odor-free during my busy days! 

 

 

Poise also gave us samples of three of the LBL (light bladder leakage) pads in their line. These products are designed specifically for LBL and provide discreet and worry-free protection, whenever you need it. They protect against odors, lock wetness away to keep you dry and come in five absorbencies with options for the right fit. Although I don't suffer from LBL, I have friends who do, and I know how uncomfortable they can feel.  I highly recommend the use of these pads to them and I encourage you to try them if you have LBL.

 

Now for a question: “How are you approaching life's changes confidently?”
