This primer has been a game changer. I have some fine lines and this really fills them in and softens them out. It leaves my skin so smooth and silky, and lays well under makeup - no pilling at all. I was originally worried that a smoothing primer may dry out my skin, but my face felt surprisingly soft and moisturized after using it. PS. This has a scent to it but it does fade away shortly after application, so for those who don’t like scented products at all, this may be something to keep in mind when weighing your options.

Upon receiving the sealant for free in exchange for an honest review, I noticed that the bottom had already burst (2nd photo). Reading other reviews, this seems to be a common problem with this particular sealant or batch from Butterly (I’m unsure if it was due to some external pressure while being sent out). So upon cutting it on a 45-degree angle as usual, it was more difficult to come out. However, once the sealant did start coming out, compared to the other DAP sealants, it seemed to be on the runnier side and rather uneven, in turn making it more messy than the other formulas. In terms of drying time, although it says to dry in half an hour, it does take longer than that but that’s fine as I didn’t need to paint over it on the same day. The results can still be professional looking, it just takes more effort and work compared to the other DAP sealants for cleanup. And although this isn’t a specific fault of this sealant, due to its sticky/rubbery texture it does attract dust and fur to it.
Tips
Use gloves and clean up quickly because it’s quite difficult to remove as it is really sticky.

Pros
⭐️ There are 36 patches in this box, which is a pretty good amount in terms of quantity
⭐️ There are 3 packets total, and each set of 12 is sealed in one packet. This helps prevent drying the rest out if they're not used quickly
⭐️ Not very noticeable on the face
⭐️ I put it on at night before sleeping, and in the morning, the whitehead was practically gone after removing the patch. The bumpy white part of it already flattened out, and there was only slight redness if you looked closely. I didn't even need to put concealer over it the next day. It was that inconspicuous
⭐️ Sticks well. It lasted the whole night of sleeping, and no edges were peeling off even in the morning
Cons
❗️This only comes in one size for every patch, whereas another brand I've used comes in 3 sizes, so you lose a bit of flexibility here. For this package, each patch size is about 1 cm, so it is bigger than the size I actually needed for my whitehead, but I can see it being a good size for bigger pimples
👉🏻 Tip - If the patch is too big, you can cut it in half with disinfected scissors so you can save the other half for another small pimple!

Grown Alchemist Hand Wash: Sweet Orange, Cedarwood, Sage

This hand wash is a very nice, therapeutic hand wash. Although it doesn’t lather much, it cleans very well. It is very moisturizing and doesn’t leave your hands feeling stripped or dry after using it. It leaves behind a clean scent on your hands even after the soap is washed off. The downside is that this is a pricier hand wash and does not come with a glass bottle. As well, there isn’t much of an orange smell despite the overall scent being quite strong, and it may not align with everyone’s preference. It would be great if Grown Alchemist could come out with more scents so customers can choose after smelling them in store!

This hand cream smells delightful and fresh. It isn't one of those overwhelming sweet smells that stops you from wanting to put on more. The cream itself is moisturizing and absorbs quickly into the skin. It doesn't feel oily and heavy when using it. The downside is that this is a pricier hand cream compared to other ones, but this does feel very lux when using it. As well, the size is not huge in size but it still too big for me personally to carry around in the purse. It would be great if the company could come out with mini versions for convenient traveling!

The packaging is sleek, and the product itself is made of silicone. This makes it easy for reuse and convenient for cleaning. The color is a nice purple and isn’t tacky. It is also rechargeable which prevents the need to purchase new batteries every time it runs out. Do note that the charging port is actually the tiny hole in the centre of the product if you’re searching for it. It’s actually so well made for waterproofing purposes that it doesn’t seem to be the case but that is indeed the charging port. This toy has different vibration settings, but each level is a bit hard to differentiate. It seems to get stronger as you press the + button, but they’re actually quite similar at the same time. It would be better if it had different pulsations or patterns. The idea of the ribbed ring seems intriguing, but it didn’t do much for the partner. All in all, this is definitely a high quality product that encourages exploring and spicing up amoung couples or individuals.

I got this for free in exchange for an honest review. In general, I like this packaging as a squeezy tube more than the tub versions as it is more hygienic. The product itself is very gentle on the skin and would work great for sensitive skin. It isn't a rough exfoliation so those looking for that may be disappointed. However, I personally like that it is on the gentler side and won't damage my skin. While gentle, it still gets rid of dry flakes, so it works for my purposes. I'm also not sure why the name has "tone" in it, but I think the "texture renewing" part of the name remains accurate. -

Aveeno® Calm + Restore Nourishing Oat Facial Cleanser Refill Pouch
This cleanser is really gentle and soothing to the face. It does not dry my skin out at all. The refillable package itself is quite big and I love that it is resealable. This is a really good intiative to lessening plastics and waste!

This is a great gentle cleanser that doesn't irritate or dry out my skin. However, for people who are expecting this to remove makeup like I was, it doesn't. This should be marketed as the second step in a double cleanse, and if this is the expectation in mind, then this cleanser works wonderfully.
