I don't know what it is about Irish Spring soap, but it definitely brings back memories! The original clean deodorant bar soap smells nice and fresh as soon as you open the box. The soap lathers up quickly and does a great job removing dirt, and even grease if you have it on you! Irish spring has gone the extra step to ensure that the product is paraben and phthalate free, which is nice. I know in the past I sometimes found the soap to be a bit drying, but I didn't notice my skin drying out this time. I'm assuming the addition of flaxseed oil helps with that. Regardless, I love the Irish Spring bar soap, it smells great and helps you stay smelling fresh all day. #TryIrishSpring #gotitfree -

To say my kids were excited to try out the 'life-size' Gabby's Dollhouse Cakey Kitchen set was an understatement! The kitchen set is just over three feet tall and has several plastic kitchen utensils and a few food items that young children can play with. Provided you want to add the batteries, it also plays kitchen sounds and catch phrases from the television show. On the whole, it is a nice set for a young child and it will provide them with hours of play. Potential drawbacks of the set, are that some of the food pieces are made from heavy cardboard, rather than plastic so you know they are going to be destroyed fairly soon. Similarly, some of the pieces required to construct the set (eg. curtains, back of fridge, front image of fridge door) are all heavy cardboard too, which may not stand up over time and multiple children. The set goes together fairly easily, once you figure out the instructions are hidden inside the bag containing all the cardboard pieces! That said, Spin Master did a great job ensuring that similar pieces physically can't fit into a wrong section, by making attachment pieces slightly different shapes, so if you do decide to forgo the instructions it can still be assembled! One odd thing that is missing from the set are plates and cups, there are some utensils, pot, and a pitcher, but no plates or cups, which my kids love to play with and serve pretend food on. My kids were excited to have Cakey cat included in the set though. Ultimately, I would recommend the set to families who have young children, it will be enjoyed and used. #FamilyRatedClub -

This was my first time using Shu Uemura's Ultime8∞ Sublime Beauty Cleansing Oil and ultimately I was impressed. I was a little unsure on how well the cleansing oil would work to remove makeup, but it does a great job on makeup and removes sunscreen residue well too. I put a small squeeze of the product on my fingers and rubbed it onto the makeup I wanted removed, keeping my face dry prior to use. After I had rubbed in the oil I used a cloth to wipe the makeup off my face, it was as easy as that. The oil itself isn't super heavy and the essential oils in it smell very nice. I found the cleansing oil left my skin feeling soft after use, but not oily, which was good. It is a product I would use again. -

Orange Naturals Kids Omega Tangetine Squeeze is an interesting product. It contains the necessary omega-3 to help with children's brain development and it has a decent tangerine flavour so kids will be okay taking it. However, Orange Naturals has tried too hard to make the packaging appealing to kids and as a result failed to show dosage and storage instructions in a font size anyone could easily read. I'm not giving my child a supplement if I can't easily figure out dosage and if I have to use a zoomed in smart phone photo to find out I need to refrigerate after opening, there is a problem. So while the product tastes ok on it's own and contains needed omega-3's I would not recommend until the packaging and instructions improve. I will watch for a change and then purchase.

This is my first time trying Orange Naturals Magnesium Sleep Support and I am impressed. I've tried melatonin in the past with mixed results but after a week if use Magnesium Sleep Support has helped me stay asleep for the night. It has helped to limit the number if times I wake up during the night. The pills are not huge and are easy to take. The one thing that I really am frustrated with though is the small printing on the bottle that outlines your suggested dose and what the product contains. The small writing is pointless, without a magnifying glass or your smart phone there is no way you could read the information. Thus is not acceptable. So from a functional point of view the product works great, from a label design it needs work. #orangenaturals @thisisbutterly @chickadvisor @orangenaturals -

I was fortunate to test Spin Master's Black Adam and Hawkman figures in my home. These DC comic figures are well constructed and are 12 inches, so they are a full-sized action figure, which is nice. The arms and legs move at the hips, knees, shoulders, and elbows, so there are a ton of different action poses you can try. Hawkman's wings are large and impressive, but their one drawback is that if you open them to their full capacity Hawkman can't stand on his own; rather he tips over. I wish he had been weighted differently so that you could leave him standing with his wings fully open. I also would have liked to have been able to remove his mask, but that is a tiny dislike! On the whole the figures are well constructed and should hold up well for hours of play. #FamilyRatedClub -

I loved Breyers Canadian Dessert, Blueberry Grunt! On first glance I was a bit disappointed as I was expecting more blueberry streaks in the ice cream, like traditional blueberry ripple. However, after my first bite I realized there was tons of sweet blueberry flavour and the cake part of the grunt was amazing! The grunt was a bit crunchy, not soggy, and had a great taste too. My only wish was that the packaging was larger, the blueberry grunt only comes in a 1.41 L container, which is a bit small for the price. That said I will watch for sales and buy this treat again! #BreyersCanadianDesserts -

Recently I tried Breyers Creamery Style Vanilla Ice cream and it was okay, but not my favourite. I definitely have had vanilla ice cream that I've enjoyed the flavour of a lot more than this offering. Also, while the name suggests the ice cream is creamy, I also didn't notice much difference between the Creamery style and normal Breyers vanilla ice cream. For the price I think I will stick with the standard Breyers vanilla ice cream. #BreyersVanilla -

My family tried Tech deck's Sk8 shop Halfpipe and my eight and ten year old both thought it was interesting. The halfpipe is made entirely of plastic but is pretty sturdy once it is assembled. While the assembly instructions could use some improvement, once you get the hang of it, the toy assembles easily. While neither of my kids could do any of the tricks you see others performing with other Tech Deck toys they enjoyed trying. Both loved the little skateboard, it was a hit! They also found the halfpipe easier to play with when they separated the two halves, but that might change with practice. On the whole it is a fun toy for any child interested in skateboards and tricks. -

Chapman's cherry peach passionfruit sorbet is amazing. As soon as you open the tub the fabulous fruity fragrance of the sorbet is obvious. Then when you taste it the cherry, peach, and passionfruit work very well together and you are wow'ed by the sweet-tart combo! The texture and colorful pink/orange sorbet swirls of the product are eye-catching and add to the appeal. Everyone in my family loved the product and we will be buying it again. Thank you Chapman's for such an amazing treat! -
