Let me tell you about the funny way that I first tested it...
I used Aveeno Texture + Tone scrub on the top of my left hand and used nothing on my right.
I then went to my mother and asked her to feel the tops of both hands.
She looked at me confused and all I said was “What do you notice? Do you notice anything?”
She touched again and said “This hand is smooth...like silk! It’s silky smooth and soft!” as she pointed to the left hand.
I then told her and she was amazed at the difference.
It was cool to see that she noticed without knowing a single thing.
I think I’m going to test more products out like this.😝
I tend to like an actual “scrub” for my body, one with a gritty texture. This was not gritty, it has a nice gel like texture with micro beads that are extremely gentle on skin. It was not harsh at all yet it worked amazingly. It is more like a body wash that exfoliates than a “scrub”.
It even has a nice little lather that I really liked!
No fragrance AT ALL!
I don’t know if it’s just me but I have found that a lot of Fragrance-Free products end up smelling straight up WEIRD to me. I would think fragrance-free meant NO scent but I sometimes find they have a smell to them anyway...and not a good one.
This was literally NO scent at all, it smelt like NOTHING 👍
I would definitely recommend this!
Especially for people who have sensitive skin!
Thank you Butterly and Aveeno for the opportunity to try it free!

Had the opportunity to try a full size bottle of Lancome Renergie H.C.L Triple Serum free from Butterly and Lancome in exchange for an honest review.
There was an actual noticeable difference in my skin within the first 4 days of using this (1x day). I have now started using it twice a day and can’t wait for the results.
My skin looks clearer, brighter AND PLUMPER! It definitely gave a more youthful and healthy appearance.
My lower face recently has lost volume and this definitely helped with a fuller appearance and also with “laugh lines”. I have bought multiple products aimed at this specifically that have not delivered. This area of the face is the hardest to target and improve without surgery. This is the main reason why I personally would buy this even at $170, because I actually seen now with my own eyes it made a difference.
The scent is lovely! I know most people do not like scents in their skincare but I LOVED it!
Instantly gives a glow and absorbs nicely into skin.
The bottle has 3 tiny nozzles that dispense 3 different components of the serum into one, so each component stays isolated and fresh in their own chamber insuring quality of the ingredient. I totally appreciate that!

Most of my skincare is geared towards anti-aging but I do get those annoying little breakouts (1-3 random pimples) when my dear monthly “friend” visits.
It is so annoying because it’s not something that needs an entire acne regimen or multiple products to add to my already huge arsenal of skin products. So a spot treatment is perfect in this case!
So, it was that magical time of the month when the PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches arrived and I had 2 doozies on my face. Huge raised bumps, inflamed and red.. oh and I also had an event in 2 days!
I cleansed my skin, made sure it was clean and dry, applied the patches and went to bed. Woke up the next day and they were COMPLETELY flat and the redness was reduced drastically. They didn’t leave the spot dry and it healed nicely.
I’m a makeup gal so makeup can hide the redness but it made my job easier and I used less makeup to try to hide it (no caking it on which tends to make it look worse).
BUT when the actual pimple/bump is raised and sticks out, I will be completely honest and admit I do sometimes pick at it. (Usually if I have an event).
We are all guilty of picking, you try not to but I mean, makeup can’t hide the massive bump sticking out of your face and yah, that part bothers me and makes me insecure.
These PanOxyl PM Patches made them completely flat I couldn’t believe it...and neither could my brother lol! He had a doozie on his forehead and asked me to put one on him the next night. He was blown away in the morning.
I was so excited to try these, this was my first time using such a product and WOW!! I was seriously impressed! I have never used hydrocolloid acne patches before and I am truly amazed at the difference they make JUST OVERNIGHT! I have already ordered a pack and at around $10CAD for a product that works this well, it was a no brainer for me.
I received these free from Butterly and PanOxyl Canada in exchange for my honest review...and yes, I have already bought these within days of trying them. Game Changer!

I received Harry Potter’s Hedwig Owl Purse Pet free from SpinMaster and Butterly.
I’m going to start by getting the few minor negatives out of the way first and then tell you why these didn’t matter lol. Adult review vs Child review kinda thing.
The box says it makes 30+ sounds but it seemed to make the same 10 sounds to be honest. I Even double checked if I had the switch on demo by accident.
I asked my niece if that was disappointing? She replied “No I dont care! I still LOVE it!”
The beak is suppose to be able to hold a letter. Such a cool and creative feature! (This is a feature she was totally excited about.)
All though the beak does indeed open and shut tightly, for some odd reason it wouldn’t hold a letter. We even tried thinner paper, thicker paper.. but nope. Would not hold, just slipped out immediately.
I was a lil disappointed with that but this is coming from an adult..let me tell u, the kids didn’t care! They LOVED this toy!
When I asked my niece what she thought about the beak not holding anything..she said “It’s fine! I can put the letter INSIDE the purse.”
Extremely cute design and well made. Such a cool concept. The strap is sturdy and of good quality. The eyes blinking are fun and magical! The audio was good quality, it was loud enough and clear.
The Harry Potter charm was a nice addition. My niece even yelled “Wow! Awesome charm!” as soon as she noticed it.
There are other Purse Pets available (unicorns, cats, different colours and designs) and I happened to see the other Purse Pets in person at a store and OMG soooo cute!!!!
I’m thinking of buying one for my cousin’s daughter now!
My niece was over the moon excited, she absolutely loved it!!
Her brother loved it too and they started fighting over it.
So it is definitely a major hit with kids and especially if they’re Harry Potter fans!!!
This is a great idea for a great toy and I’m sure any kid would love to have this! For example, my niece just turned 9 and my nephew (her brother) is 5 and they BOTH were super excited about this toy and wouldn’t stop playing with it.
So...boys, girls, different age ranges...any kid would enjoy this.
I would definitely buy this as a gift for another child in my family. Especially after seeing how happy and how much fun my niece and nephew had with it.

Smells wonderful!
What an amazing texture!!
It doesn’t feel like an oil, it is completely non-greasy and has a silky feeling as you massage it into your skin.
Absorbs nicely and feels so nourishing. Skin feels instantly soft and smooth, I couldn’t stop touching my face!!!
This serum feels so good and gives a visibly noticeable healthy glow.
After just a few days I felt the texture of my skin and the look of my pores improve!!
Hydrates and plumps making wrinkles less noticeable.
As far as the firming claim, I don’t know if 7 days was enough for me to speak of firming effects but it did give my skin a bouncier and plumper look and feel to it.
I love this stuff so much but the price tag might be a bit scary..
now that I got to try it out I see that very little is needed as it glides nicely all over the face.
Even the tiny sample for each day was more than enough to totally spoil my face and see quick results.
I am going to purchase this now that I got to try it. This product is definitely worth the price tag! Why? Well for me..it was the fact that I noticed improvements and results in multiple areas (hydration, plumping, wrinkles, pores, glow, nourishing) in such little time and with such little product.
Also a huge one that did it for me is.. as someone who has bought and tried many of the trendy oil products out there...I’ve hated most. I wanted the benefits of the oil claims and indeed some of the products are great (for others) but I just can’t stand the feeling of oils on my face! (Even when some brands/products absorbed better than others, I just hated it)
So if you also hate that feeling or dislike oils this feels totally different.
One component of the serum is a gel, the other half an oil, they come together and make my face happy!

I received The Marshmallow Mickey Mouse 2-in-1 Flip Open Sofa #Free from @thisisbutterly for an honest review.
They already inform you that out of box the product will be flat and not fully formed. Don’t fret, after about 24 hours the sofa formed nicely and quickly (not that my excited 2 year old nephew would have given it much of a chance lol) ..so what I did was unboxed it and hid it out of sight for 24 hours giving it untouched time to form and expand.
He loves Mickey Mouse so it was super cute how excited he was when this arrived!
He immediately was jumping on it and playing with his toys on it once we put it out for him.
The cutest thing ever is now when he gets sleepy or wakes up still groggy after a nap, he goes and cuddles on it by himself🥺💕
Since receiving this, he has not left it alone, he absolutely loves it and it makes me so happy to see how loved, as well as how useful the addition of this fold out sofa has been.
When I first took it out of the box I thought there was no way this was going to form and expand nicely into shape, I feared the worse but if left alone after some “massaging” of the foam and a bit of tugging/adjusting of the cover, it does come into it’s form well and rather quickly.
Just give it a good 24 hours out of box before allowing your little one to “attack” it lol.
Please note that when taken out of the box it comes folded “incorrectly” and the first little while I didn’t realize this and thought it was massively deformed.
Once I realized the correct way to fold it, it was much much better.
I appreciated the childproof zipper and loved the fact that the cover can be removed and washed 🙏 👍
He absolutely loves it and uses it ❤️
A great addition to the living room or play room and a must-have item now that I see what a massive hit it is!
The one and only slight negative I can think of is that I just wish the quality of material that is the cover was a bit better.
It comes in a variety of different print and characters if your little one is not a Mickey fan.
Other popular options are Paw Patrol, Minnie, Dora, Toy Story and much much more!!

The toy was cool and exciting for my 5 year old. I thought it looked and felt cheap, the type of plastic mainly. I can’t comment on the price to quality because I got it free with #FamilyRatedClub Difficult to use for him and also I as the adult. The batarangs did not place well in the hand that it’s suppose to. The leg maneuver was difficult to execute in order to achieve the action. He still thought it was pretty cool but got frustrated trying to work it. I have to admit, as an adult I was getting frustrated as well trying to show him it and do it myself. The toy could’ve been better as the concept was really unique and fun. The phrases were clear and loud and there were many sound effects along with the phrases. -

I received Dark Brown and was wonderfully surprised how well the colour blended and naturally matched within my hair. I love this as it is the quickest and easiest way to just cover a few greys or grey growth in between colour. Easy to use, almost fool proof. The formula is so nice too, not gunky or greasy! Does the job and does it well!! -
