Please note that I got this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
This one couldn't have arrived at a better time. Especially during the winter months, my little one's eczema tend to flare up and my oldest has been complaining about how itchy her feet and legs are after school.
Aveeno just gave me exactly what my little one needed ! This cream worked wonders ! The dry patches she had on legs were almost completely gone after applying the cream two days in a row after her bath.
This moisturizing cream, made with colloidal oatmeal, looks thick in consistency but it's actually lightweight, extremely easy to apply and it soothes the skin almost instantly. Because it's made for dry skin, there is almost no scent to it which perfectly makes sense since scented products tend to be more irritating for the skin. It's also paraben-free and phthalate-free !
It's not sticky at all if you use the right amount. Less is always better. You don't need to use a lot. I only applied a small amount and rubbed it in and it worked perfectly. I had no issues getting my daughter dressed after applying the cream.
If you child suffers from eczema or dry skin, run and get this cream ! It's totally worth it and will make your little one or yourself feel a lot better ! Thank you Aveeno and Butterly. I will be purchasing again

I've been wanting to try this one for over a year and I was so happy to finally have to chance to do so.
It's a nice design, lightweight and mostly fairly quiet and painless. I usually shave everyday and particularly in the winter, I get really bad skin rashes after using a regular razor. I've been using the Flawless hair remover for over a week now and I'm yet to experience any rashes which is awesome! It's painless and so easy to use. Just go over the area you want to shave in small circular motions and you're done. Completely painless and it didn't cause any sort of dry skin or irritation. I will definitely recommend this product if you suffer from dry skin and if you're tired of buying disposable razors!
The only downside for me was to only have one mode for power. I had to go over some areas of my face multiple times and sometimes having to use tweezers afterwards to get the hairs in tricky areas that this razor has a hard time getting to. Also, it would also be very convenient to not have to use batteries. A corded option would be great!
Either way, I definitely recommend this product and I will keep using mine. Thank you butterly!

This was the first time I've ever used any grown alchemist products. I've heard about them but never had the opportunity to give it a try. And I'm very pleased I got that chance.
Let me start with the restorative body cream. I've used it for about 9 days now and I'm very happy with the results. I used it day and night and after 9 days, my skin feels significantly softer and hydrated/moisturized as promised. The winter here in Nova Scotia has been rough on my skin and this cream helped me so much the last week or so.
Plant-based and containing ingredients such as shea butter, jojoba oil and mandarin oil, this cream is pleasantly non-greasy and does not feel sticky at all after applying it. The pump is easy to use and the consistency is very pleasant and easy to apply. You really don't need to apply a lot to feel a difference. Less is more !
The scent with this one is rosemary and bergamot. The scent is okay but I'd much prefer a fresher or sweeter scent.
After looking at the Grown Alchemist's website, their products and this cream are on the higher price range but in my opinion, very well worth it. I will be looking at trying other products from this company

Even though it worked the same as the cream in terms of getting a smooth, soft and clean skin immediately after applying it, I wouldn't purchase this one again. I'm very particular about shower gels and the fact that it does not lather really bothers me. The gel consistency here again is easy to apply but I somewhat need a shower gel to lather to feel refreshed and I find I ended up using way too much product every time I had a shower.
Also the scent is not my favorite. While it is nice if you like anything herbal, it's too strong for me and I'd again much prefer an actual energizing scent. I find the word "energize" to be misleading. I wouldn't expect an herbal scent associated with the "energize" word. Most of the shower gels that are labeled as "energizing" are usually based on a fruity or citrus scent. Herbal scents sound more relaxing or calming than energizing so that would be maybe something to think about on the company's side.
Overall, it was still a very nice discovery and I will be purchasing different products from this company since the body cream was great.
Thank you butterly and grown alchemist for this opportunity!

I was pleasantly surprised to be selected to receive a paw patrol toy for free from butterly and spin Master.
My girls have been big paw patrol fans for years now and it's another toy added to their collection. I was so happy to get Tracker since there is not many versions of him as a toy. We got the monkey transformation vehicle.
First, it's a very nice looking toy. The truck is definitely an improvement from the previous version and the monkey tail is a nice addition.
Tracker is very cute and just like the other ones, a good quality figure for our little ones to play with.
You can move the tail up and down, move the launcher up and down also and the launcher is fairly easy to use. Just insert the projectile in the launcher and push the paw patrol badge on top of the launcher to launch. Easy and super fun for the kids.
However I believe there is definitely room for improvement. The truck is supposed to transform so you can either use it as a regular vehicle or push the badge to use it as the transformation version. That part is simply not working for me. The vehicle, right out of the box is simply not snapping back into place when pushed down. This was a frustrating part for my kid and I just can not fix it. It won't stay down as a regular vehicle. Its a great toy otherwise but like I said, there is room for improvement with the transformation feature.
Thank you butterly and spinmaster!

Once again, I got this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion. First, let's me start by saying that it's my first time ever using a sex toy. But there is a first time for everything, right?
I have to say that it definitely spiced things up for both me and my partner. And that's the first good point for this sex toy. It can actually be used by both you and your partner at the same time ( and the possibily of using different settings on each end) which is a big plus and generally makes the toy more interesting during intimacy.
Secondly, this is a really nice design. It's sleek, soft and most importantly, bendable! I was worried about that part and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it actually bends.
The purple coloured silicone is extremely soft and on top of making the toy smooth, it also makes it easier to clean especially because this sex toy is also water resistant! Just a little bit of soap and water to clean it and you're done!
They are many settings to choose from which is great because it simply gives you the option to choose whichever one you prefer or feel like using.
Another big plus is the fact that it is rechargeable. There is nothing more frustrating than running out of batteries and it's definitely something you won't have to worry about with this toy.
Overall, I had a great time and for a first time, it definitely spiced things up and gave us a break from our usual routine.
The only bad side for me was the instructions. They were confusing at first so I think that they should be improved in the future. Other than that, it's a great toy that will definitely make things more interesting for a couple or single pleasure. Recommend 100%

Once again, Aveeno didn't disappoint. I got this scrub for free in exchange for my honest opinion. I've been using it a few times now and I can happily say that I loved it. This scrub is really to apply whether you want to use a loofah or just your hands. The beads are a perfect size in my opinion. I love body scrubs but the beads are often two big and therefore too rough on my sensitive skin. These beads are small but yet effective. My skin was left fresh and soft. I personally like to apply a moisturizer after using a body scrub but this is definitely not a necessity with this scrub as opposed to different brands I've tried in the past that are sometimes too rough and leave my skin dry afterwards. Using a moisturizer afterwards or not is more of a personal choice or preference with this scrub but definitely not something I left I had to do since my skin already felt clean and hydrated.
As often with Aveeno, the scent is very light with this product and once again, I wish this product was sold in different fragrances. I've always preferred scented products and this scrub would be even more amazing with a nice citrus or lavender scent.
Overall, I'm still very happy with it and will be purchasing again. Thank you Aveeno and butterly for this awesome opportunity!

I was so excited to be lucky enough to receive and try this NOMA Fairy Bulb String in echange for my honest opinion. Thank you Canadian tire and butterly for this perfect opportunity.
We've been buying NOMA lights almost every year for Christmas but I have to say, this set is are by very far my absolute favorite set of lights. They're absolutely beautiful! They, in fact, look magical thanks to each bulb containing small multicolored led lights.
One string comes with 10 plastic bulbs and as per the manual, you can connect up to 3 string together which I will certainly be doing in the near future. Each bulb has its own hook which makes the whole installation process so much easier and the bulbs being plastic, the whole string is pretty light and makes the installation even easier.
I love the fact that you can use them indoors or outdoors. As per Canadian tire's website, they're sold as Christmas lights. However, I think labelling them as Christmas lights doesn't do them justice. It's a stunning set of lights that can be used all year around since they're not your typical looking Christmas lights. They'd be perfect for a deck or around a window or a bed. I personally can not wait to use them in my 5 years old's bedroom. I will absolutely be buying two extra sets for her. She wants a unicorn themed bedroom and these are just the perfect addition to a magical bedroom.
Thank you so much butterly and Canadian tire! I love it and my daughter will soon have a big surprise and a magical bedroom!

I was very happy with the Aveeno calm and restore exfoliator and I will definitely be buying extra Aveeno products on top of the ones I'm already buying for my 2 and 5 years old little girls.
This exfoliator is fragrance free and sulfate free. It's extremely easy to apply. Even though the cream is thick , you can easily apply it by massaging it into your skin and it's worth mentionning that you do not need to use a lot at a time, just a small amount is enough. I personally prefer to apply it while my skin is damp. I just let it sit for a minute or two and rinse it off. My skin immediately felt smooth, fresh and soft and combining it later with the previous product worked perfectly for me. I love that both are light and not greasy or heavy as some other creams are. I believe thid product works very well with the calm and restore skin therapy balm that I also reviewed. I would love to see a scented version but that's simply a personal preference.
Last but not least, I think it's important to note that on top of working very well, this is a very affordable product. Times are tough and it's nice to see a great product for an affordable price.
Thank you Aveeno and butterly !

First of all, I want to say that I'm really grateful to have been given the opportunity to try these two products for free in exchange for my honest opinion. Aveeno has been my kids go to lotion and shampoo/shower gel for years but I've never had the opportunity to personally give it a try.
Let's start with the Aveeno Calm & Restore skin therapy balm. My skin is very sensitive and some creams simply don't work for me. I'm very pleased to say that I absolutely loved the Aveeno Calm & Restore skin therapy balm. It's fragrance free, paraben free and steroid free which is already a plus for me.
I constantly have dry patches on my cheekbones and my chin and so far, all the moisturizers I've tried didn't work well for the dry patches. This one was a game changer. It cleared them after a few days of use. My skin now feels soft, more even and definitely moisturized. I simply applied the cream on the dry spots as indicated and it worked wonders. Because I absolutely hate sticky creams, it is worth mentioning that this Aveeno cream does not feel sticky whatsoever. It's easy to apply and doesn't feel heavy on the skin.
The only thing I missed was some sort of fragrance. Some people love fragrance free products but I definitely prefer scented ones. It would awesome to have two options for this product : scented or fragrance free.
Well done Aveeno and thank you so much for this opportunity.
