I just recently found out I had seasonal allergies and Reactine has significantly improved my quality of life. The extra strength version acts quickly and clears up dryness and coughing for me - I am constantly dealing with a dry cough because of irritation to particles in my environment so taking reactine clears this up quickly and also clears up itchiness and other discomfort that I experience - I don’t use it every day but I do use it any time I will be in contact with dust or plants or anything aggravating and it really vastly improves my reactions if not eliminating them entirely. I could not recommend more for those with seasonal allergies. -

I was very excited to be gifted this product by Butterly in exchange for an honest review. I was in need of a compost bucket and this one is exactly as pictured. It is on the larger side which is convenient as I live in a condo and means it doesn’t have to be emptied as often - but it is still small enough that you will have to turn it over relatively often which is good for compostable items that tend to smell. It is easy to install and is very handy to have hanging on the door. Overall this was a great addition to my kitchen and is a quality piece that is worth the price charged for it. -

I was thrilled to be gifted this stock pot from Butterly to try in exchange for an honest review. This pot is a very attractive purple colour and it is very sturdy. It is huge and a great size for making big batches of soups, stews and sauces. It’s non stick coating makes it easy to clean - it must be cleaned by hand so this is a huge plus, and it fits nicely into my drawers even though it is a very large size. Overall this is a very sturdy and reliable pot that I’m sure I will get a lot of use out of and it is a reasonable price for its size. -

I have been using this serum for a few months now - I had actually purchased it before receiving it to review from Chickadvisor - this serum keeps my skin clear, hydrated and noticeably brightens my skin and smoothes fine lines and wrinkles. If I miss a day using this serum I can tell the difference in my skin - my skin looks tired and dry and I sometimes break out - if I stick with this serum I have no skin problems and my skin looks plumper, brighter and more hydrated. I couldn’t be happier with this serum and it has become one of my holy grails. It is quite expensive but I do think it’s worth it given the results. I just wish the packaging was more sustainable as I feel guilty about the complicated and fancy plastic packaging that is very difficult to recycle. -

This product has a nice light scent and goes on very smoothly. It feels like a luxury, thicker night cream and I like that it has both retinol and niacinamide. I did find this product to be quite strong so people may want to introduce into their routine slowly and alternate with other night creams. I did wake up with brighter clearer skin when using this so I will continue to use it and look forward to seeing the results over a longer period of time. -

I was excited to get the opportunity to try this product. I have used a number of different retinol products and this one is nice and light and goes on really easily - it sits nicely under moisturizer and it seemed to be effective in the few days I used it so far. I do find this product quite strong though - I don’t typically have sensitive skin but this really sensitized my skin and I did experience some peeling. I would recommend people introduce this into their routine very slowly and in moderation because I maybe used it too often in one week causing the sensitivity. Overall this happens with retinols so I don’t think it’s the fault of the product and is probably a good sign that the actives are strong which is not always the case with serums. I think this is a promising budget retinol option compared to some of the other luxury brands I use and I already saw some brightness and tightening of the skin in the few times I tried it so far. -

I have very strong brows so I knew I probably wasn’t going to like this product. The product itself performs very well and the colour and consistency is nice. It is convenient to have the brush attached and the pencil is easy to work with to create natural strokes. It is also waterproof which is good for people who need to define their brows but for me this was not my look. This made my brows too prominent and maybe that’s because I am not great at application but I don’t think I would repurchase. Nice product though for people who need brow definition. -

I was really excited to try the infallible foundation - it has a really nice light scent and the shade I received was a really good match for my skin. The consistency of the product is like a luxury brand and the product is really high quality and goes on really smooth. It is a really nice buildable coverage with a gorgeous natural matte finish. The only complaint I have about this product is that because it’s so “infallible” it is really difficult to work with and apply. It dries quickly and when it dries it is NOT moving so I have to use a lot of setting spray when applying and work quickly and in small patches. Maybe I’m not skilled enough for this as I usually wear tinted moisturizers but I found it difficult to apply. Once it was on though it didn’t move all day and looked great - it’s a really nice product, the only reason I might not repurchase or recommend is because of how quickly you have to work with it. -

I received this product free for testing. I liked this product - it is smooth and easy to apply but the shade I received was very dark and it is difficult to create a natural looking brow - this might be due to a lack of skill on my part and I do have quite thick brows so I don’t think they really need this type of enhancement so I didn’t really think the product was right for me but I did enjoy it. It dried quickly and didn’t smudge and the pen tip is thin and flexible. I think people who fill their brows and have a bit more experience with it would really like this product - I just struggled to get it to work for me and maybe I need a lighter shade. -

I received this product free for testing. I enjoyed this concealer - the shade I was given was a bit too light for me which is always a risk when selecting shades online but I was able to test the texture and efficacy of the product. This is a nice full coverage concealer with a great texture. It is easy to apply and leaves a smooth finish. I liked this concealer and it didn’t budge after application. It did get a bit cakey over time but I think if I had used a setting spray or blended it out better this wouldn’t be a problem. Overall given it’s price point it is a high quality concealer and I would recommend. -
