I love masks and sheet masks are probably my biggest go to because of for easy they are to use. They look and feel goofy, but this stuck onto my face and felt amazing and cooling while on. It is very well saturated leaves my face with that pampered feeling I crave. I will definitely use this again- I love it! -

I have used my sample of this cleansing oil and first impressions is that it has a nice light texture and scent. For removing makeup I find it does a decent job and feels nice on my skin. I did find it saturates quite a lot into cotton pads and you need more product than I would like to use to remove my makeup (I don’t use anything heavy or waterproof) but it’s gentle on my skin and leaves it feeling hydrated which is a definite perk. For the price I’m not sure I would purchase it, but it is a lovely product that I’m happy to have the opportunity to use! -

I love @covergirl mascaras so I am happy to have the opportunity to try this one through @thisisbutterly @chickadvisor . The wand is very fluffy which I find great for building volume. This formula is very light so it is great for a more natural look when you just want to slightly enhance your lashes. I do find it slow to dry so it easily transfers onto your skin so I have to be careful when applying, especially if I’m building with multiple layers. On the plus side it does wipe off very easily to tidy up and smudges. Overall I think this is a nice hydrating mascara that makes my lashes feel healthy. I wouldn’t use it for dramatic looks, but for every day it’s fantastic! -

We received this free for review through the Butterly program, and love it! We are already huge fans of Kinetic sand and my 6 year old was so excited to try it in fun scents and colours! It really is fun for all ages. I love that it’s moldable so you can use it like actual sand to build little structures, and it feels so cool when you squish it and it’s almost feels like it’s melting apart. It holds up so well. Most comparable products dry out and lose their consistency, but we have never had an issue with this. We tried to keep the colours stored separately initially… (spoiler alert- we guess that the mystery scent is banana!) but in the end she decided to just moosh it all together and she enjoys it just as much! I have nothing negative to say about this product. It’s clean enough to use inside or out, is easy to pick up, easy to clean up, and easy to store. The scents and colours are a fun new twist, and this is a toy that gets pulled out all the time in this house. We love it! -

My kids were so excited to receive this as a free item from the Butterly program. They are very creative and love crafting and building. I love that the Orbeez come sealed and ready to use. We received the Glow in the Dark Orbeez which really light up and are so cool! My kids decided to use theirs to create nightlights… we got inexpensive jars with a good seal, which they filled with Orbeez. It’s such an easy and straight forward craft and gives kids confidence when they can make something independently. Plus they love how quick it is to put together! These little balls aren’t sticky at all and are low/no mess which is a plus for me. I love that we could reuse they for multiple crafts though I think they are pretty attached to their little night lights. We will definitely continue purchasing Orbeez and finding other creative ways to use them! -

This is a staple in my house. It tastes so good and is a quick and easy sandwich, or can be added as a flavouring in baking as well. The only downside being that it does contain nuts so when my kids eat this we ensure they brush and wash after if they will be going to school or any allergy cautious space. But we are lucky to be an allergy free home and we love this stuff! -

My skin didn’t react very well with this cream initially. The interaction with my skin caused it to have a strange offensive odour (and I know this isn’t for everyone because the jar smells perfectly fine, and testing on others in my home was fine). So it may not be for everyone. For the first week I noticed the odour, then after a few days I had redness like my skin had a mild sunburn. As per the product directions, I reduced the amount I was using and only used it once in the evening. As my skin adjusted to this and I no longer reacted, I slowly increased back to twice a day and by the third week of use I wasn’t noticing the odour as much, and had zero irritation. Things I love about this cream is that it did eventually give me the look and feel of smoother skin. I also love the slight flush and feeling that it’s actually doing something positive. The negatives are that it was a process to adjust for myself personally. In most products with this first impression I would have likely discarded it instantly, though I appreciate the advice on the jar that there may be initial reactions and to slowly work back to twice per day. This direction is what worked well for me. By using it through the ChickAdvisor program and having an extended deadline (late shipment) to give me the full timeline to properly test this product, I was able to discover that given a sufficient time using it regularly it’s actually quite fantastic. The price is great for an anti-aging cream, the jar size is generous, and the cream applies and absorbs nicely. I’m not generally sensitive to products, so my best advice with this is to start slow with this one despite your known sensitivities. Also to give it a chance to see if it works for you! -

We love Motts applesauce in this house! The mango peach flavour was new to us and the kids love it! I love the convenient packaging and that the kids can grab them on their own for a quick snack at home or to go. Plus we save the little plastic cups to use for crafts. This is a definite must have!! -

I was so happy to have this opportunity to try Batiste waterless cleansing foam! My hair is VERY dry so I really pump the conditioning treatments to it and only wash it 2-3 times per week. This means I really need something in between washes to freshen it. Since I don’t have greasy hair, I haven’t had much luck finding a dry shampoo that works well in my hair. I love the light scent, and the texture of the mousse. I was worried that using a wet product would interfere with my straightening (I flat iron my hair) but this really wasn’t an issue because I’m only focussing on my roots. I found it took longer than the 60 seconds to fully dry, but I like that my hair was left with a refreshed feeling, hydrated, and no residue. It would probably be most ideal for people who aren’t styling their hair with a flat iron since it does go on wet, though honestly I didn’t find it caused any waviness or frizz. I love having a more hydrating option for refreshing my hair between washes! Great product! -

I honestly never did anything beyond tweezing with my brows and find brow make up intimidating, until I received a free sample of Gimme Brow about a year ago. It’s SO easy to use and I can’t believe what a difference it makes. It’s now a regular part of my every day make up routine and I feel naked without it. There are tons of great shades to choose from and I love that it comes in a smaller size when I want to try a new shade that I’m not 100% sure of (I change my hair colour a lot and started with blonde but now realize the darker brows suit me best!!) I recommend this to everyone -
