I had a chance to try this through Butterly. The flavour I tried was the Salty Caramel & Peanuts No Sugar Added Lactose Free Ice Cream. This was my first time trying lactose free ice cream and Chapman did a great job with the texture and flavour of the product. I did like that it was sugar free seeing how I do find anything with caramel quite sweet so this was a nice compromise. I didn’t taste the artificial sweeteners too much which I was very happy with as I don’t typically like the taste of them. Lots of peanuts throughout just like you’d expect from Chapman products! I’d definitely buy from this product line again in the future if I’m looking for an indulgent but not too sweet treat! -

I received this to try through Chickadvisor. I was hoping that this would help hydrate my skin and it did a great job. It has a nice lightweight texture which goes on smoothly, not sticky at all, and absorbs quickly. It also has a bright but not overwhelming orange scent which is a nice gentle wake-up in the morning. After a few days I thought my skin did have a bit of a glow to it and felt a bit softer. Definitely something worth trying as it doesn’t break the bank! -

I was excited to try this because my skin tends to be on the dry side and having something that helps keep it hydrated would be super helpful. This cream was light and not sticky, absorbed quite quickly as well and had a light scent. My skin looked moisturized and was soft immediately afterwards but I did notice my skin drying out by the evening (I had applied it in the morning). Maybe it would last for the reported 72 hours in more humid climates but not in my cold and dry city. I would have loved a larger sample to see layering on more cream later in the day would have helped, but the packet size didn't allow me to try this. -
Kraft Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa
I love the taste of this spread - it has a nice creamy texture and you can definitely taste the hazelnut flavour. This is a nice addition in my pantry

ATTITUDE Super Leaves Plastic-Free Natural Deodorant, Unscented
I was really excited to use this product because of the natural ingredients and biodegradable packaging. This is a great deodorant! The smell is nice too.

I love this! It's super, SUPER absorbent and sinks in super nicely to the skin. You don't feel that greasy layer that you may feel with other lotions. I also love how this is unscented; I'm super sensitive to scents and it's really nice to have something I can apply frequently without being bombarded by scent. There IS a veeeery slight scent, but that's the scent of whatever ingredients (maybe the oat?) are in the lotion, and it is not offensive whatsoever. I have only used this on my hands thus far, but as a healthcare worker who washes/sanitizes their hands constantly, this has been amazing on my cracking hands. -

I received the opportunity to try this for free through the Review Club. I tend to use lemon juice when making my own salad dressings so was curious to give this a go as it would save me time from having to prepare and use fresh garlic. First off, the bottle is smaller than the typical Realemon one so a bit of a lesser value, but you save in time and in purchasing garlic. I'm not a super fan of garlic in general but this had just enough of a garlic taste that it was noticeable but wasn't off-putting. It was easy to use and something I think I might look at having regularly in the house just because it's so convenient! -

I received this free to try as part of the Product Review Club. I really enjoyed using this handwash as my hands felt clean and soft but not stripped of moisture after using it. The juniper had a nice, light and clean scent which was not overpowering, and I found that I only needed to use a small amount of product to clean my hands. I don't know if because it's a liquid which pumps out as a foam that I found the bottle lasted a bit longer than my usual hand soaps would. -

I received this to try as part of the Family Rated club. I was actually quite surprised at how similar this was to butter, and how my family members didn't realize there was a difference either. I ended up with the unsalted one which was great as I like to be able to control the salt content in my food. I found that this was pretty similar to the texture of regular butter but was definitely more easy to spread - compared to butter which will chunk or chip off when you try to cut it before letting it warm up a bit. I also had no issue with replacing it in my baking - which turned out as good as if I had used butter! This is something I'd definitely look to buying and using again as the price is similar to that of butter and works just as well! -

I received the Batiste Waterless Cleansing Foam with Almond Oil to try through the Chickadvisor review club. I liked the scent of this product and found it to be relatively light and not overpowering. I was impressed that there was no foamy residue or anything left in my hair after applying the product and massaging it through my hair - something that tends to occur when I use dry shampoo. Because I have pretty thick hair, I found I had to use quite a bit of the product to get that fresh clean feeling, so you might end up using more than you expect if you have both thick and long hair. I also tend to only go a day between washes so I'm not sure how well this product would do if my hair was in a more oily or gritty state. -
