✨Flawless Cleanse: Facial Cleanser & Massager✨
Thank you to @thisisbutterly and @flawlessbeautyca for sending me this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
This is my first time trying a product like this and I was expecting something abrasive (I was worried!) but this is so gentle! This is made of silicone and can even be taken into the shower for those days where you're really pampering yourself (perfect for an "everything shower" -- get your facial massage in as well!)
The rose gold colour is so pretty and I love that the charging piece is a little cradle, rather than having to stick a plug into the brush. Just sit it on its little home and off you go until next time.
I also really enjoy the multiple speeds and I'm having fun exploring what my face prefers. I do feel like I get a deep clean and while I can't speak get to how well this promotes collagen production or overall radiance, I do feel so extra in the best way possible while using this and it will definitely be part of my routine from now on.

✨Children’s Tylenol Fever & Pain✨
Thank you to @thisisbutterly for sending me this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
Anyone else hate seeing their littles sick? I keep Tylenol on hand for those *just in case* moments so they can bounce back to their normal. This is perfect in a pinch for fevers due to cold and flu or pain from aches and pains. This liquid formulation is meant for kids aged 2-11 which is great if you have multiple children (yes, I am extra excited that I only need to purchase one bottle to take care of two kids!)
The flavour we received is Banana Berry and my kids both enjoy it and take it without complaint even when they’re feeling their worst, though I wish it was dye-free! It does come in 4 other flavours as well. I really love the way the bottle is designed with a spill-proof top that you squeeze to dispense, making it less messy when you're half asleep giving some to your child at 3AM after they've woken you up for the 5th time... just me?
Tylenol is a brand trusted by pediatricians as well as parents (myself included!) so I’ll always restock this and I’m glad to have found a different flavour than we’re used to.

Thank you to @thisisbutterly and @spinmaster for sending us this @techdeck set for free in exchange for our honest review.
Honestly, of all the things I've reviewed in 2023, this was my 11 year old son's favourite. He is a massive Tech Deck fan and likes to collect the boards so this was wild for him to get!
He was already receiving other Tech Deck accessories for Christmas so to get a bunch of boards (7 to be exact), he was stoked. These are so fun! I asked my son for his input for this review and he said:
🔹Learning curve to assemble
🔹Once you've learned how to build a board, very easy to change them
🔹The set has boards he's never seen before
🔹Had stickers inside, major plus
🔹So many fun tricks you can do with two fingers and a board 🤣
This arrived at my door a couple days before Christmas so I wrapped it up and stuck it under the tree for him and this is one gift he's still playing with daily, major mom win! The fun increases because he has accessories but this is a fantastic board starter set for school-aged kiddos!

✨McCafe French Vanilla Coffee K-Cups✨
Thank you to @thisisbutterly @mccafecanada @keurigcanada for sending me this box of k-cups for free in exchange for my honest review.
I’m sure so many people can relate, but I love coffee. I’ll have coffee in the morning, coffee as a pick me up, coffee “just because”.. I don’t discriminate about coffee. But flavoured coffee just hits different. I tend to enjoy my coffee on the sweeter side, so if there’s already some flavouring in the grounds, I’ll use less creamer which is a win for me.
I’ve already loved McCafe coffee, whether it’s getting it at McDonalds or purchasing it for home use but this is delicious! Definitely a french vanilla flavour comes through, it isn’t overly sweet and pairs fantastic with a simple creamer (or even a shot of vanilla with some frothed milk, if you’re fancy). Having it in a convenient k-cup makes it even easier to enjoy a cup of coffee and I like that it’s recyclable if you peel the top off and compost the grounds.
Major plus for me, beyond flavour? The 100% arabica beans are roasted right here in Canada after being harvested ethically from certified farms. This was perfect for sharing over the holidays.

✨NOMA Smart WiFi LED Bulbs✨
Thank you to @thisisbutterly and @canadiantire for sending me this 2 pack of bulbs for free in exchange for my honest review.
My household is fairly “smart”, so we aren’t new to smart bulbs but we have some main spots we’d still like to upgrade. As someone who suffers from migraines, dimmable lights are my best friend so I’ve been slowly transitioning more lights to smart LED bulbs.
These by NOMA do require an app for the initial set up but they pair so nicely with Google (the type of smart house I’ve been working toward) as well as Alexa if that’s what you have that we were able to delete the app afterwards, to keep things simple (though the app does work pretty well!) I personally really like being able to use my voice commands to tell the light to turn off and on. The lights work lovely and are a perfect warm shade.
There is a very small delay in voice (and Google Home app) function for these lights but it’s minimal and I’ve noticed it with similar products. The two pack is pretty cost effective, especially because they each have a lifespan of 15,000 hours. Because there’s two, I’m planning to put them in my two hallway lights so they can work together or separately!
I wasn’t tied to a particular smart light brand before this but I’ll definitely be checking out what else NOMA has to offer in the way of smart products so I can continue to upgrade my house!

For what it is, the app works well enough. All of the main functions work exactly as intended and I like that you can have Noma items I'll show up together. My biggest issue with this app is that it just seems redundant. Everything that it does, from being able to control the lights, using voice commands, scheduling routines, etc. Are all available as features in my Google home app. In addition to that, I can still control my thermostat which is not Noma branded or my speakers. I don't have to have an extra app like the Noma app in order to control everything including my lights. If I had all Noma products and I didn't use the Google home app as regularly as I do, I think I would appreciate this more. But as it stands, it really has no extra function for me.

✨NOMA Elodie Ceiling Fan✨
Thank you to @thisisbutterly and @canadiantire for sending me this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
I was absolutely stoked to receive this as I’ve been wanting to replace my kitchen light but wasn’t sure how a ceiling fan would look. I wish I did it earlier because I’m in love with the outcome!
Some of my favourite things about the fan:
🔹6 speed settings
🔹Integrated LED light
🔹Short – no risk of hitting anything important, even in the small space
🔹Different light settings (warm, cool, etc.)
🔹Dimmable light for a customizable space
🔹Small remote to control both light and fan independently
🔹Whisper quiet
🔹Sleek, pulls the space together
In theory, the fan was meant to be easy enough to set up. Unfortunately, this was my only issue with this product. The instructions aren’t totally clear as it references a blue wire but there was no blue wire. When I first installed it, the light seemed to not have any power (but the fan worked well). A few extra attempts and I realized that inside of the internal unit (not referenced in the manual), the wires were loose. Once they were pushed them back together (the little black tabs on the wires had to be taken off for this), the light worked and I haven’t had an issue since.
This is one product I’ve been truly impressed with. My kitchen finally feels completely put together and I love how this looks and feels in my space!

✨Hero Mighty Patch✨
Thank you to hero and @thisisbutterly and @herocosmetics_ca @herocosmetics for sending me this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
I’ve seen Hero Cosmetics on my social media for a while now and I’ve been itching to give them a try, so a hydrocolloid patch was a great introduction. I get the occasional breakout, sometimes with a white head and other times, they’re hormonal and pimple patches aren’t super effective but it was worth giving it a shot on my newest annoying pimple.
I use patches like these often and usually have the same prep – wash the area, apply a blemish serum, let it dry down and apply the patch. The Mighty Patch stuck on really well and I ended up using 2 for 2 blemishes to protect them before going to bed. I do wish there were different sizes in the box as the patch was a bit too big for one of the spots, which lead to creasing in the patch because of the location.
When I woke up and removed them, I noticed that both blemishes were reduced substantially in size, which was amazing! Unfortunately, I seemed to get a reaction on one of the areas and had a red, raised welt in the shape of the hydrocolloid patch for about 30 minutes after taking them off. This only happened in one location so it may just be a fluke and I’ll still use it in the near future before deciding if this is a deal breaker for me.
Overall, a decent pimple patch and a great introduction to the brand. I’m eager to try more from the brand, including their Micropoint patches and Lightning Wand!

✨Vida by PADERNO Clear Food Storage Container Set✨
Thank you to @thisisbutterly and @padernokitchenware for sending me this set for free in exchange for my honest review.
Anyone else have a plethora of containers that don’t seem to have a matching lid, a cracked base, they’re stained and stack horribly… just me?
This set was the motivation I needed to jumpstart my food storage purge and I’m so glad I did it.
Some of my favourite things about this set:
🔹Locking tabs keep an airtight seal to really protect your food (keep in mind, my 5 year old could NOT open these – a blessing and a curse) and no spills
🔹Microwave, dishwasher AND freezer safe. Yes, you read that right
🔹Stain and odour resistant – I’ve tried with red and pasta sauce and they still look brand new
🔹A set of dividers for the square set to keep two items separated in the same container
This set has something I don’t think I’ve seen before – the base has elevated ridges to ensure that your produce has some breathing room to stay fresh for longer. Really impressed by such a unique design and I’m happy to report they’re BPA-free.
These stack really nicely while they’re in use (my fridge has honestly never looked more organized even with a plethora of Chinese leftovers) but the set also collapses pretty well so they’re not cluttering up the cabinet or drawer. You won’t feel the need to hide these, keep them out if you need to!

🔹Hand Wash🔹
This must be the first gel hand wash I’ve truly loved! I love the smell of oranges and having it paired with sage and cedarwood is soooo fantastic. The scent isn’t heavy whatsoever, it’s light and refreshing. The gel texture is really nice and doesn’t leave my hands with that “squeaky” feeling where they feel stripped. Just a small pump is all you need and it lathers up really nicely, leaving my hands feeling soft (thanks, sweet almond and coconut oil!) and a touch hydrated from the hyaluronic acid, ready for hand cream to be applied. I will say – given the price point of this hand wash, this is a “just for me” product!
