I received this product for free from @thisisbutterly in exchange for my honest review. This is a medium roast coffee made with 100% Arabica beans. I loved both the smell and taste of this coffee. It has the perfect amount of sweetness for my taste and the rich vanilla flavor is comforting. Perfect for the Holiday season or year-round if you enjoy flavored coffee like I do! I also found the medium roast to have enough potency and robustness without being too overwhelming.
The pods were also easy to use with the Keurig machine and easy to dispose of, as well. I also appreciate that there are no artificial ingredients and this product is also linked with the Rainforest Alliance, making this an ethically sourced coffee. I'll be enjoying these during the chilly winter months!

I liked how easy these were to put on and peel off the skin. It also was a good size to cover the blemish and the patch was not very noticeable when wearing it. I found it reduced some of the redness from the blemish and worked well at absorbing the gunk from whiteheads. I didn't feel any irritation or burning sensation while wearing the patch. Definitely great to have on hand if you get blemishes before a special occasion. These patches will really save the day!

Thanks to @sambucolcanada and @thisisbutterly, I got two sample packets to try. Prior to receiving this, I had already heard a lot about the amazing benefits of elderberry and its antioxidant power. This product also contains 500 mg of Vitamin C. These are important factors in helping prevent and alleviate cold/flu symptoms. After trying this out, I found it was really tasty and easy to drink. It didn't leave a bad aftertaste and wasn't chalky either, and was also easy to dissolve in water. I didn't have a cold or flu when trying this, but haven't gotten sick either since drinking it. I do enjoy the fact that it contains natural ingredients like beet root powder and natural strawberry and raspberry flavoring. I also like how they're individually packaged and I'm thinking of getting a full pack so I can bring a few of these to work with me.

Thanks to @panoxyl_ca and @thisisbutterly , I got a chance to try out the PanOxyl Overnight Spot Patches. These little, round sticky patches are meant to cover blemishes in order to heal them and absorb secretions all while you sleep. You can obviously wear these during the day if you'd like but if you don't want to wear the patches while you're out and about, then overnight is the best way to go.
The patches come in two different sizes for big and smaller blemishes. I liked how easy they were to apply and they fit the size of blemishes I had. It also prevented me from picking at the blemish, which is something I really needed. It did work well at reducing the size of the blemish and I didn't notice any oiliness in the area I put the patches on. Also easy to remove and dispose of.
This also came with some coupons to try any PanOxyl products. I'm definitely going to see if I can find more of these patches at my drugstore. They're so convenient to have and use. You can even keep some in your purse or travel bag without taking up any space. Awesome product!

I've been trying out the Degree Ultraclear Dry Spray antiperspirant in the scent Pure Fresh. This is meant to give 72 hours of dryness and is anti-stains, which protects both black and white clothing.
I really like the way this sprays and the shape of the bottle is easy to hold. The mist goes on really well and evenly, without making a mess. As for dryness, it did a great job at that. I didn't sweat or detect odor the whole day through. Also, I enjoyed the fresh scent, but it is quite strong and powdery, at first.
Personally, I didn't experience any irritation with this product and my clothes remained free of antiperspirant stains. I would consider using it again!

Paw Patrol has been a favorite with the kids in my household and this latest toy from the Aqua Pups series is a big hit! This one features Skye and Manta Ray, and it's one of the 6 #PawPatrol figurines you can collect. Both Skye and the bright pink Manta Ray are very sturdy and durable, and it's just the right size for toddlers and preschoolers to play with. The kids were able to use their imagination all while flapping the wings up and down, pretending Skye was swimming away with Manta Ray to save the day!
I like how it's not your typical vehicle toy, but it thinks outside the box and helps kids learn about sea creatures, as well, especially if you collect the whole set!

Throughout the years, I've purchased a variety of Colgate toothpastes and have always been happy with the results. The Colgate Total Whitening toothpaste is no exception. This gave my mouth an extra clean feeling after brushing and the flavor is so refreshing!
This toothpaste has multiple benefits including preventing cavities, plaque, tartar and gingivitis. It also offers enamel protection and is great for sensitive teeth. In fact, I was very pleased to experience reduced sensitivity after the first few uses. Drinking cold and hot drinks afterwards was less painful. As for the whitening effect, I did notice my teeth looked brighter with continuous use. Very pleased with the results and will definitely purchase in the future!

After having previously tried the Clarins Double Serum Eye, I was really happy to have the opportunity to test out their Double Serum Hydric + Lipidic System as well. This anti-aging treatment was a real treat to use. In only 7 days of use, my skin looked more supple, firm, and the fine lines around my eyes and on my forehead also looked less visible. I appreciated the consistency, as well. It didn't feel sticky at all but instead, absorbed very nicely into my skin, which made it great to use both day and night. In fact, it's a dual mixture of oil and gel that blends together perfectly.
I really love the fruity-floral scent as it's really pleasant, making me look forward to applying the serum on a regular basis. What I also found impressive is that the 21 plant extracts in this unique formula are meant to target 5 important skin needs, as is stated on the Clarins website: hydration, nutrition, oxygenation, regeneration, and protection. My skin felt less taut after the very first application and the radiance was also noticeable after the first few uses.
Thank you @chickadvisor , @thisisbutterly , and @clarinscanada for this wonderful skincare product sample. I would seriously consider purchasing the full-sized bottle! This is a high quality skincare product. #gotitfree

I applied this with a cotton pad and was pleased to see how quickly and efficiently it removed my eye makeup. I didn't have to rub quite a lot and the waterproof mascara came off quite easily, too. This also contains cucumber extracts and I did feel the skin around my eyes felt refreshed afterwards. In addition, I did not feel it stinging or burning my eyes, as some eye makeup removers tend to do.
If you're looking for a fragrance-free, affordable eye makeup remover that works, I'd highly recommend this one.

If you need something other than coffee to wake you up in the morning, then a shower using the Irish Spring Aloe Mist Moisturizing Face + Body Wash will do the trick. This gel cleanser has a fresh, cool, invigorating scent that the brand is so well known for. Since I've used their iconic bar soap in the past, I do feel that they've kept with the authenticity of the Irish Spring brand with this face/body wash.
The gel consistency lathers really well and rinses off easily. My skin smelled really good and felt so clean afterwards. It did leave my skin well-hydrated, but I'd prefer to just use it just on my body instead of as a face wash since the scent is quite strong. I do think the scent can be used for both men and women, although if you're into more floral or gourmand scents, this may be on the opposite side of the fragrance spectrum for you.
I'm also glad to know that this cleanser is free of parabens and phthalates, and contains biodegradable cleaning ingredients. Great value in terms of the size of the bottle, too!
