There are some hand washes that can be too harsh for the skin, this one is definitely the opposite.
With a sleek bottle, this product stands out for it’s effectiveness, lather & scent.
I didn’t think I would like the combo of sweet orange, cedarwood and sage but all 3 scents combine very nicely together.
This is very gentle hand wash that doesn’t strip your skin, it takes a few seconds for the lather to build up but afterwards leaves your hands feeling clean, soft and nourished.

With the cold windy weather, my hands become very get dry and at times they can start to crack.
Grown Alchemist hand cream is perfect for this season, it’s non greasy, absorbs quickly into the skin, makes my hands feel very soft and it smells really good. It’s a combination of vanilla with orange peel.
I didn’t really smell any notes of vanilla as the orange is overpowering but not in a bad way.
The only con I have for this is the cap of the hand cream, a few times I ended up losing the cap, it would be better if it were a snap on cap, but it’s really not a big issue for me as I care more about the cream than the packaging.

Whether you want to kick it up a notch with a partner or just wanna fly solo, either way you go, it will be a pleasant satisfaction.
The trojan duet is a 2 in 1 toy featuring a vibrating massager on one end and a ring on the other end.
I washed the toy before use simply with warm water and soap and didn’t charge it as there was already some juice to the device. I’ve used it twice so far and still haven’t had to charge it. It is loud but not too loud to alert everyone!
The toy feels and looks to be of high quality, it’s smooth and soft and has good weight to it when using and easy to clean.
Featuring 10 various vibrations settings, changeable to your preference and they are enjoyable at all settings.

I used one packet in an 8oz glass of room temperature water and the powder dissolved fairly quickly. You can mix this in whatever drink of your choosing. I chose water because I wanted to see if there would be any flavor to the powder.
I didn't think the taste would be pleasant, but I was wrong. It tasted like fruit juice and this is a taste that everyone would enjoy. There was also no unpleasant aftertaste. The packets are also perfect to take on the go and use for whenever.
One small packet is jam packed with 500 milligrams of vitamin C and 164 milligrams of black elderberry extract, great to boost your immune system.
These packets contain no artificial color & flavor, dairy free and gluten free. As for the second packet I have, I think I will add it to a smoothie.

I was selected to try out the Aveeno stress relief body scrub for free from and here’s my review.
I like the packaging of this product, easy to squeeze out the amount you need and this has a nice texture and consistency.
The scrub is very smooth and makes the skin feel soft, there is no roughness to the scrub, it’s very soothing.
The scent of the oats & lavender is very mild, I can hardly smell it sometimes.
Overall a good body scrub that does what is say.

I was selected to try out the Lancome Rénergie H.C.F triple serum for free from and here are my thoughts after trying this serum out for a week.
First off, the bottle of this product is sleek and very nice, it stands out from other brands. It does get greasy quite easily, not really a big deal as it can be cleaned off.
I did have to press the pump a good amount before the product started dispersing and not all three liquids came out. It was a struggle to remove the top from the base, but after I got it removed, I simply closed it and all 3 liquids came out perfectly.
An anti-aging triple serum product that targets fine lines, dark spots and the overall appearance of the skin. Count me in!
I’m at the age where the fine lines/wrinkles are making an appearance and loved the opportunity to try out this product, my skin needed this.
What does H.C.F stand for, because I for one did not know.
Hyaluronic Acid + Vitamin C & Niacinamide + Ferulic Acid, all 3 are in their own separate containers in the bottle and once pumped you can mix it and apply to the skin.
I was fortune enough not to breakout from using this serum as my skin is quite sensitive and I’m always afraid of trying something new on my skin.
I used this daily at night before applying my moisturizer and used roughly 2-3 pumps for the face & neck.
Instantly my skin feel extremely soft & hydrated, there was a faint scent to this serum but it wasn’t very noticeable and I did find my skin felt slightly tacky for a few minutes.
Now I can’t really say anything at this point if it improved the fine lines because one week is really not enough time for the skin to benefit from such a serum.
But overall I did like how much hydration this provided especially since my skin is leaning more on the dryer side these days.
I will continue using this daily, as I would really like to see how much it can improve the fine lines/wrinkles.

I was selected to try out samples of the @panoxyl_ca overnight spot patches for free from @thisisbutterly provided I try out the product and give my honest opinion.
I’ve never used this type of product before and didn’t think it would work.
At the time I received the samples, I didn’t have any active pimples but one week went by, and surprisingly my skin broke out over several days.
I used the smaller size patch on my chin and was worried it would come off during the night, but it didn’t! It stayed in place and I like how it’s not noticeable on my face, plus the layer of protection it provides means no unnecessary picking.
The next morning, I could see a difference in the size of the pimple, it didn’t disappear overnight, but it did reduce in size.
I didn’t apply the patch the next night, but the pimple did go away fairly quickly than usual.
Few days later, I used it on my cheek and the next morning, I didn’t see any difference, the size of the pimple remained the same.
I guess this is a hit or miss, it does work but won’t be effective for every single pimple.

I received the Alex Ultra advanced latex sealant for free from butterly provided I use the product and give my honest opinion.
This item couldn’t have come at a better time, I had a project on my list to get taken care of and kept putting it off until now.
My living room crown moulding was improperly installed and there’s a very noticeable gap between the ceiling and crown moulding.
I’ve always been debating whether to leave it as is or to cover the gap.
I used the dap sealant on the gap and it was fairly easy to use, the product dispersed very smoothly, didn’t leave any mess or odor and I was able to smooth out the caulk with my finger.
I don’t think I will paint over it, as I want it to remain white.
I only filled out a small area with the dap as I do have to move my furniture but this is something I will be doing over the weekend.
I made sure to seal the top of the nozzle very well so that it doesn’t dry out.

I was selected to try out Bai antioxidant Zambia Bing Cherry for free provided I give my honest opinion.
This drink is perfect to have especially in the hot weather, and I was craving something cold & refreshing.
Love that it’s only 10 calories per bottle and the fact that it only contains 1 gram of sugar was perfect.
I’m not the type to consume drinks with high amounts of sugar so I was quite excited to try this out.
This drink also contains 65mg of caffeine and 10grams of erythritol.
Now for the taste, I wasn’t expecting such a sweet flavor to come out of it.
It’s a combination of sweet & sour, but the sweetness overpowers the sour taste and I really liked it.
