I was given AVEENO Daily Moisturizing Facial Cleanser to try out from Aveeno and Butterly but this was already a product I used on the regular. This has an easy pump dispenser and it dispenses the perfect amount for me. I like the way this suds up on my face, removing any dirt, oil and makeup. I also love that this doesn't dry out my skin. I am left with a fresh clean face every time. It's perfect for my skin! I have skin that tends to be dry so moisture is key. -

AVEENO Daily Moisturizing Face Cream has been one of my staples for a few years now. I love this fragrance free version! It leaves my skin moisturized without feeling greasy and it works well into my skin. My skin is always left feeling soft and smooth. It's great! My one qualm with this bottle is that I always seem to dispense a bit more than I want but I just work the extra in elsewhere. This is a great product. -

I am always on the lookout for a great serum that makes my skin feel as good as it makes it look. Lancôme Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Anti-Aging Serum made my skin both look and feel amazing. I used this both morning and night after I washed my face. The bottle looks expensive and the product has a spicy expensive scent. I don't entirely love the packaging as I think it's excessive for the amount of product you get and I found it hard to keep clean looking the way the formula is dispensed. I don't know if mixing it just before it is used is a requirement for the product to work well. If not, I would rather it be premixed.
That being said, after a couple weeks of use, my skin looks firmer, plumper and smoother. I actually got called "miss" at the store the other day instead of "Ma'am" so really, what more do you need?

I was given a free sample of Children's Tylenol liquid formula in grape flavour in exchange for my honest review. My son is the kid who likes grape flavoured everything so I was actually really happy that I was able to test out this product. When he complained that he was sore, I reached for the bottle of Tylenol to see how it went over. I like that it has a small hole that you can slowly squeeze the medicine out of into the measuring cup, ensuring that it doesn't come out too quickly and is easy to measure. My son, predictably, really liked the grape flavour so I didn't need to worry about a purple mess. My children are thankfully really good about taking medicine when it's needed so I don't tend to need to worry about dye free options but I like that Tylenol also has those options if needed. After awhile my son seemed back to his regular self so I guess everything was fine again. Hopefully we won't need the Tylenol again soon but if we do, I know it will be there are ready to work. -

I was lucky enough to test Noma E27 LED String Lights in multi colour for Butterly and Canadian Tire. These bulbs have tiny LED strings of multi-coloured fairy lights inside the bulbs. I like that the bulbs are plastic with a glass look to them so you don't need to worry about them shattering. They give off an almost blue light when combined together and would probably look really pretty reflecting off the snow. The lights were easy to hang and overall very nice. I can't speak to how well they work in the winter outside or how well they last because I got them to test during a heat wave. While it says these are indoor/outdoor but I think the multi-colour was a bit much for me for inside. Though I normally like coloured strings I think I would prefer these in white. Of course this is an entirely personal taste thing and has nothing to do with their effectiveness. Overall I really do like them though and I think they could be used all year round. -

My family was lucky enough to get to try Hedbanz Lightspeed Game with Lights & Sounds in exchange for our honest review.
We all loved playing this together. It was a quick easy setup which is important with family games. It was also simple enough that it didn't take long for even my youngest to learn. I liked that it was set up so both readers and non-readers could play.
We really liked that it kept making you change up the way you gave the clues. Some things were easy to act out while others were easier to get with yes or no questions. We felt the "give 3 clues" made it a bit too easy but didn't take away from the enjoyment.
I also love that you could dial up or down the competitive nature of the game. It often felt like we were all working together instead of pitting us against one another but you could absolutely make it more of a competition.
Overall this was great family fun and I know my kids will ask to play again soon.

PADERNO 5-Ply Copper Core Stainless Steel 12-pc Cookware Set, Oven Safe

I have been using Paderno pots my whole life but the five play copper core stainless steel set is a serious upgrade! They are as beautiful to look at as they are to work with.
I tested these out using the recipes I know and love every day so I was able to give a good and honest opinion.
I found these pots held heat and heated more evenly than my simple stainless steel pots. The variety of shapes and sizes provided me with ample selection and my food cooked wonderfully without sticking or burning.
I always wondered if my old pots were oven safe but these I know for sure are and it's great being able to finish my dishes in the oven.
My only and tiny complaint is just me being lazy. I wish I could throw them in the dishwasher but understandably you can't. I wouldn't want to risk ruining the gorgeous finish anyway.
I look forward to cooking with these pots for the rest of my life and expect, like my mother's Paderno pots, they will last for generations.

Are you looking for a way to get your kid off of their screens? The Monster Jam Official Grave Digger Trax All-Terrain RC Vehicle will do the trick! This remote controlled vehicle travels seamlessly from land to water, tackling some of the trickiest obstacles with relative ease. Both of my sons aged 10 and 7 enjoyed letting this car spin in circles on land and in the water. I love that only the remote used batteries. While it would have been great if this had a longer run time per charge, it still offered a decent play time. My one wish is that it was a little bit quieter but as this car is built for outdoor use, it was less of a problem. Even my husband enjoyed playing with this car. What a fun toy! -

Oh. My. Goodness. If you're a chocolate lover like I am, and you love a delicious rich chocolate flavour, this is your ice cream. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to sample Chapman's Super Premium Plus Chocolate Lover ice cream and it is amazing. I know some people might have sticker shock but this isn't your kid's birthday party ice cream that needs a million toppings. This is your sneak away and indulge in a few spoonfuls of decadent ice cream perfection. I can't wait to try all of the new premium flavours. I'm also excited that this is such an inclusive, allergy friendly line. Yum!! -

I received this product in exchange for my honest review. Aveeno® Kids Sensitive Skin Face & Body Wash has proven to be both effective and gentle on my son's sensitive dry skin. It left his skin clean without over drying it or irritation. It has a mild clean scent that we both enjoyed. It didn't take much product to provide a good amount of suds and rinsed away easily. We'll be looking for this product in the store again. -
