So at the end of every winter my skin goes through some changes, I am not sure why I only seem to get acne on my body at this time of year (maybe it is due to being covered up so much in the winter, not certain though) but whatever the reason it happens. I was quite excited to be given the opportunity to try out this spray so that I could try to combat the acne on my legs a bit more effectively. This spray contains 2%Salicylic Acid which helps to exfoliate, unclog pores and treat acne. I have noticed that there is a marked improvement in spots on my legs in that they have dried up and are now well on their way to clearing up and healing after using this spray for about a week. I use it once a day after cleansing (I prefer to apply it at night) and have not experienced any irritation or recurrence my acne thus far. I really like how easy it is to apply all over the skin on my legs with the fine continuous spray mist that dries fairly quickly... no need to rub it in with my hands.
Definitely a good addition to my body are routine for this time of year!

My mouth is sensitive so I find most mouthwash burns especially the ones with a mint flavour. This mouthwash does not, it also is alcohol free which is another source of burning in my mouth. I even find the dental rinses that my dentist uses cause burning in my mouth.
This rinse feels more cooling but still has a strong mint flavour and it actually works on bad breath. I tried it out after eating some meals that contained some onion and/or garlic flavours and I found my breath wasn't bad at all. I am also impressed that it works up to 12 Hours because onion and Garlic breath can linger for quite some time.

My skin absolutely hates the dry cold winter air and I often suffer from horribly dry skin as a result, this beautifully Rich body cream is wonder to counter my insanely dry skin. Along with being vegan and made with 95% natural origin ingredients, it contains a whopping 25% Shea butter and I have to say it feels so soothing on my parched skin. Some other notable ingredients in this cream are Beta-Glucan which aids with Moisturizing & soothing the skin, & tapioca starch which helps to absorb excess moisture so that this cream doesn't have an oily finish on the skin. I actually love how this cream makes my skin feel very soft, moisturized and nourished while not being greasy. Now normally I shy away from fragranced skincare products because mybskin is so sensitive but this cream does not cause my skin any irritation and I think it has a lovely very classic floral scent that isn't particularly overpowering or old-fashioned.
What I also found quite impressive is the packaging. The refillable metal outer container is very tasteful looking while the refill insert itself is well designed with spaces for your fingers to grip for easy removal and replacement. An additional design aspect I noticed is that the product information is also written in Braille along the side making this product more accessible those with visual impairment.
Overall I am impressed with this product and will be adding it to my regular body care routine.

PAW Patrol: Air Rescue Skye Action Figure & Hero Claw Jet Plane with Retractable Claw, Rescue Basket & Bunny

I am a grandmother to a 3 year old granddaughter and a 6 year old grandson and was very excited to be given the opportunity to share new toy with them.
My granddaughter has a huge imagination often plays in a way that she makes up conversations for the characters she is playing with and she was immediately drawn to Skye Figurine and loved that Skye has a pet bunny. She even set up Skye to watch a video with her while the bunny is napping in the basket.
My grandson is more inclined to play with vehicles than figurines and he had a blast "flying" Skye's plane around the room and stopping to use the plane's grappling Claw to pick everything from the basket that came with this toy to toy cars, treats and even an empty juice box.
I really feel this toy is fantastic for all types of play, is great quality and is very well designed. I definitely have a few other Paw Patrol toys, made by this company, in mind to purchase for my grandchildren in the future

I am experiencing perimenopause symptoms and thus was quite happy to give this product a try. I did notice a reduction in the frequency and intensity of hot flashes and night sweats but little if no improvement of my insomnia. I am hoping that if I continue to take this product that my sleeplessness and thus my fatigue will improve too. As a celiac I appreciate that these are gluten free too. -

So my daughter has far more pronounced acne scarring than I do so I had her try these out so that they were given a more fair test. She felt they were a really decent size and that they definitely helped to speed up the healing process of her current breakout along with visibly lightening her scarring. My daughter liked them so much that after finishing the sample set I received from Butterly she went out and purchased more!

As I have gotten older my mouth has developed sensitivity to some strong flavours and products like intense mint and alcohol thus I find many regular mouth washes impossible to use as they actually burn the inside of my mouth. This mouthwash does not irritate my mouth at all! While the type of mint flavour used in this mouthwash would not be my first choice (please do a mild spearmint version soon) I found using this mouthwash quite a pleasant experience. This left my mouth feeling fresh and clean, and my breath smelling minty fresh. -

I am a huge fan of all YSL lipsticks and this one is definitely worthy of much love! This particular formula seems to be more firm in the tube until it is warmed up a touch by rubbing it over your lips a few times. I mean at first I was confused as to how this could be named "loveshine" and then I swiped it a few more times over my lips to discover a glorious shine.... this particular colour surprisingly looks a bit coral on my lips which I do like and while it isn't super pigmented I find the "balm" feeling stays on my lips for hours -

I always love using liquid blushes but find they generally don't have much pigment or they fade almost as soon as they are applied and this Blush has none of these issues. If I want a subtle look I found one dab on each cheek and then blended out did the trick but for my usual more bold preference 3 dabs on each cheek was perfect. I used my fingers to spread the product over my cheek area and then a blush brush to blend it out. The result was just the look I was looking for. Best of all the colour stayed put all day and did not require any touch ups. I also tried this on my lips using a finger to apply it and while it did not last all day it did give my lips a pretty flush that lasted several hours. -

Now to give this product a good try I thought it best to try this out on a hot, humid day with a full face of makeup featuring my favourite Urban Decay Eyeshadow Palette the Robin Eisenberg Naked palette. I used a mix of mattes, shimmers, and glittery shades from the palette along with a matte foundation, a cream concealer, a tubing mascara and a liquid Blush/lip colour in order to really test out this setting spray. The only product I used with this setting spray that did not work well was the mascara and I would say that makes sense as liquid is supposed to dissolve the mascara. Everything else I used set amazingly well! Not only was the day I chose to really test out this spray was not just hot and humid but the rain came down in sheets and my makeup did not move! I have always loved Urban Decay' products and this one is no different.
