I was sent L’Occitane Karité Confort Ultra Rich Body Cream in exchange for my honest review.
I’ve fallen head-over-heels in love with this product ❤️. This feels like luxury. The packaging is beautiful and looks great on my nightstand. The cream is thick, ultra silky and very moisturizing, without being greasy (which is so often the case with shea butter). I put it on before going to bed, and my skin is soft and hydrated in the morning. I adore the scent, floral with some salt notes, reminding me of the beach without smelling like sunscreen. The scent if fairly strong at first, so be aware before purchasing if you’re sensitive to smells. A beautiful product, absolutely perfect to care for dehydrated skin during cold winters in Canada. Thanks L’Occitane and Butterly! @sephoracanada @loccitane

As a Gen X who recently started weight lifting to stay fit, I was pretty happy to receive Myoflex® Extra Strength Deep Penetrating Pain Relief Rub in exchange for my honest opinion. I get sore pretty often, and I really like this pain relief cream. The odor is pretty faint and didn’t bother me at all. Quick penetration, non greasy, and does not leave a film on the skin. Once soccer and cheerleading practices starts up, I’ll be sharing this tube with my kids for sure. Thanks Myoflex and Butterly! -

I received this product in exchange for my honest opinion. I’m a big fan of Swiss Natural products and use many of them daily. Unfortunately, these Activated Charcoal Capsules did not work for me. It’s my first time trying activated charcoal. I have occasional bloating, and these capsules made it worse, I’m sorry to say. Also, the coating of the capsules is a bit sticky, so they tended to get stuck in my throat. I don’t want to be gross, but one time, after having them stick inside my throat, I burped, and a cloud of activated charcoal came out of my mouth. My kids are now calling these my dragon pills. So unfortunately, I’m sad to say activated charcoal did not work for my body. Thanks, Swiss Natural and Butterly -

I received Swiss Natural Total One Multi Vitamin & Mineral for Women in exchange for my honest review. I don’t take supplements on a regular basis, and I was interested in finding out if I’d notice any difference. The pills are easy to swallow even though they’re on the larger side, and have no weird aftertaste. As other reviewers have mentioned, they turn your pee neon-yellow almost immediately, which freaked me out a bit at first. I understand that this is caused by the very high dose of vitamin B2, which is not harmful, but why put such a high dosage if the body just gets rid of it? I appreciate that there are no artificial flavours, colours, sweeteners, no preservatives, dairy, gluten, wheat, yeast or gelatin in the Total One Multi Vitamin & Mineral. I can’t say I noticed any difference in my health or energy level since I’ve started taking them, but I already eat a balanced diet, so I don’t think I had any vitamin deficiency to begin with. All in all, a pretty solid product! Thanks Swiss Natural and Butterly! -

Let me start this review by stating that our family love PanOxyl products. I have two teenagers at home, and I still get regular hormonal acne on my face and body, so I was delighted to receive this face and body wash. On my very first use, I loved the creamy yet light texture. Also, there is NO SMELL, which is unusual and very much appreciated with acne products. I’ve been using it daily for 7 days, and it hasn’t dried out my skin (I consistently use moisturizer though). I have noticed a significant improvement with my breakouts, especially the ones on my body. I now combine the use of PanOxyl Acne Wash with PanOxyl Body Spray and I’m hooked. Lastly, I love that this product is very affordable and available everywhere. Thanks @panoxyl_ca and Butterly!

I was lucky enough to receive Mastercraft Chisel Tip Markers in black permanent Ink (2-pk) in exchange for my honest review. I showed my husband, who immediately stole them from me. Without even trying them, he commented on the sturdiness of the cap, mentioning how he’d be able to hang the marker on his shirt or tool belt without breaking the clip. So far, we’ve used them on plastic, paper and wood, with great results. Now my daughter wants one for her DIY projects. The chiseled tip makes it very versatile, as useful to black-out documents than to label freezer bags. Thank you Mastercraft and Butterly! -

We really enjoyed this bacon! «Regular» bacon is pretty unhealthy. Butterball Applewood Smoked Turkey Bacon has a lot less calories and fat than our usual brand, so we can enjoy this more often! Of course, it’s not exactly the same as pork bacon. It doesn’t seem to get as crispy, which makes sense with a much lover fat content. We’ve had this on a Caesar salad, and I can’t wait to try it with eggs. Thanks Butterball!

I'm not a huge hotdog fan, but my kid sure is! I have a picky eater, so I was carefull NOT to let him know that he was trying a new, healthier version of hotdog franks. Guys, my kid didn't notice the difference and devoured his hotdogs within minutes. With three times the amount of protein compared to our regular franks, I feel a lot better feeding him these! Thanks Butterball!

I’ve been using TheraBreath Whitening Oral Rinse for a week now, and I’m very pleasantly surprised. I’ve never enjoyed mouthwashes because of the harsh taste and sting. TheraBreath Whitening Oral Rinse is minty and fresh, yet mild and pleasant. No weird blue or green dye, and no alcohol, which I appreciate. I haven’t noticed any whitening effect yet, but after a week of use, it’s not surprising. As an avid coffee drinker, I’m very interested in preventing future stains, so sticking with TheraBreath Whitening Oral Rinse is a no-brainer. I’m definitely interested in trying the rest of TheraBreath Oral Rinse line, but I do love the sparkly packaging of the whitening oral rinse! I’m very happy to have discovered this brand, and I recommend it to anyone looking for a fresh yet gentle oral rinse. Thank you TheraBreath and Butterly!

I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I had never tried any apple cider vinegar products and was unfamiliar with the health benefit of apple cider vinegar. I was pretty excited to try these, because I adore gummies in all their forms, and I was hoping this would help with my energy levels and appetite suppression. I used the gummies as indicated for a week, and noticed no change. I did like the texture of the gummies, but I dislike the taste, which makes me sligtly nauseous (thought that didn't suppress my appetite, unfortunaltely). I would have happily continued taking these if I enjoyed eating them, but I've starting dreading them, so I won't be finishing my bottle. Thank you Buttlerly and Goli Nutrition!
