I received the product for free to review from Butterly
I have tried some products from Neutrogena's Hydro Boost line and the Gel Cream has now become a staple in my skincare routine. This gel cream delivers on its promises, providing excellent hydration without any heavy or greasy feel.
One of the big things for me is its ability to hydrate effectively without weighing down the skin. The gel-like texture absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving it feeling plump, refreshed, and moisturized without any residue. I feel that this gel cream is suitable for all skin types, providing the perfect balance of hydration without clogging pores or causing breakouts. I will mention that I tried it during some colder days and my face felt a little dry about halfway through the day so for me this would be a perfect summer moisturizer, but it was quick thick and lasting enough for colder, drier temperatures.
I also appreciate the fragrance-free formula of the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream which makes it perfect for someone with sensitive skin. With this gel cream, I can enjoy the benefits of hydration without any unnecessary fragrances or potential irritants, making it a safe and reliable choice for daily use.
Overall, if you're looking for a lightweight, fragrance-free moisturizer that delivers on hydration without any fuss, look no further than the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream. It's a simple yet effective solution for keeping your skin feeling soft, smooth, and moisturized all day long.

I received the Aveeno® Calm + Restore Daily Face Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30 to try for free.
While I found many aspects of the product to be exceptional, there was one aspect that fell short of my expectations.
Let's start with the positives. I am a big fan of Aveeno products. While I don't technically have sensitive skin, my skin will let me know if it doesn't like something, so I tend to choose gentler products when I can. This moisturizer offers effective sun protection with an SPF 30, making it an ideal choice for daily use, especially if you spend a lot of time outdoors. I appreciated the mineral-based formula, which provides broad-spectrum protection without the use of potentially harmful chemicals. It is hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, and felt so nice on my skin.
Another highlight of this moisturizer is its lightweight texture and non-greasy feel. It absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving behind a smooth finish that serves as an excellent base for makeup application. I also noticed that it didn't clog my pores or cause any breakouts, which is a common concern with some sunscreen-based products.
However, the one downside of this moisturizer is its light tint, which unfortunately was too light for my skin tone. While it did blend into mskin I could see a light whitecast on my face. I could likely cover it up easily with makeup, but I don't like wearing makeup everyday. As someone with a deep complexion, I found myself wishing that it blended completely into my skin to better match my skin tone.
In conclusion, the Daily Face Moisturizer Mineral SPF 30 is a reliable choice for effective sun protection and lightweight hydration. Its mineral-based formula and non-greasy texture make it a standout option for daily wear. However, if you have a darker skin tone like mine, you may find the light tint to be too light for your liking. I ended up giving it away to a friend as I new she would use it more than I would. Overall, it's a solid choice for those seeking sun protection with a slight tint, but it may not be the best option for everyone, depending on your specific skin tone preferences.

I received the YSL LashClash Waterproof Mascara for free to try from Butterly
I was looking for lashes that defy gravity for the Easter Weekend festivities and I had to look no further than the YSL LashClash Waterproof Mascara. Let me tell you, this mascara is amazing!
First and foremost, let's talk volume. The YSL LashClash mascara delivers on volume. I used about two coats and my lashes were instantly transformed into bold, full-bodied beauties. The formula is incredibly buildable, allowing you to customize your desired level of drama without clumping or flaking.
It also has staying power. The waterproof formula ensured that my lashes stayed lifted and lush all day long, even in the face of sweat, and tears. They powered through a long day of laughing, and dancing and my lashes remained flawless and fabulous.
I also appreciate the precision brush design, which effortlessly coats each and every lash from root to tip. The tapered bristles grab onto even the tiniest lashes which worked great on the lashes on the inner and outer corner of my eyelid, and the definition tmade my eyes pop.
I loved this mascara and I highly recommend.

I recently received the Aveeno Stress Relief Body Wash for free to try from Butterly.
One of my standout features was its unique blend of colloidal oatmeal and essential oils. These natural ingredients worked well together to hydrate my skin, leaving me feeling soft and rejuvenated after each use.
I love that this body wash is soap-free and dye-free, and I found it to be gentle and effective. I LOVE lavender, and I wanted to note that the fragrance was subtle and not overpowering. I have eczema patches in random areas and I didn't experience any irritation at all.
I am someone who LOVES to take showers and I have multiple products at my disposal. I have reached for this body wash EVERY DAY. Every time I showered. It feels nice on the skin, it lathers well but not too much, and cleans effectively. The scents of eucalyptus and peppermint have a unique way of helping to melt away stress and tension, transforming an ordinary shower into a luxurious spa-like retreat.
I highly recommend [the Aveeno Stress Relief body wash to anyone in search of a gentle and nourishing body wash that helps calm and relax both the body and the mind. It is a great affordable way to indulge in a little self-care during your daily bathing routine.

I received the Type A Over-the-Door Multipurpose Organic Waste Bin, 7-L for free from Butterly to review.
I have been looking for a simple and clean garbage that fits well into my small kitchen, and I think I found it. This garbage been is the perfect size and easily fits over my cupboard door. I live in a rental so I didn't want to drill anything to secure the garbage can. Thankfully, it comes with a hook that fits comfortably over the door, but still allows the door to close properly.
My only small complaint is that I wish the hook was a little wider to balance the garbage can a little bit better. Outide of that, I would recommend this product and it's perfect for small kitchens and rentals.

I was gifted the Lancome Renergie HCF Triple Serum to try for free from Butterly. This serum has 3 major ingredients in it:
1. hyaluronic acid which can hold up to 1000x times its weight in water and helps reduce wrinkles and fine lines.
2. C+Niacinamide which combines Vitamin C and Niacinamide to reduce dark spots and brighten the skin's appearance.
3. Ferulic Acid, a powerful antioxidant known to provide skin-protecting properties.
After about a month of using this product, I noticed that my skin's tone looked more even, and felt smoother and better hydrated. On days when I was rushing and only used my moisturizer, I noticed the difference. This product is a little pricey, but it is worth every dollar and I highly recommend it.

Let me start by saying that I LOVE to exfoliate skin. I find is essential in my skin care routine as it not only helps me get rid of dead skin cells, but it also helps other skin care product sit better on my skin.
This product was gentle enough that it didn't feel like it was removing my skin, but effective enough that my skin felt smooth afterward. And for those of you who double cleanse, it is a great second cleanse that leaves your asking feeling moisturized, but not greasy.
I will also note that I have eczema, and it doesn't irritate the affected areas. I actually felt that those areas were a little smoother and accepted my medicated cream better.
I recommend that you give this a try.

I have tried Aveeno products in the past and this one did not disappoint. For reference, I have combo oily skin and I am in my 40s. Usually, in warmer weather, my skin gets oilier so I'm really particular about the moisturizers that I use. This gel moisturizer felt so hydrating without making my skin look or feel oily. It was also lightweight so it didn't feel like it was clogging my pores which some moisturizers can do. I also felt like a little went a long way.
My skin felt smooth and hydrated, and looked glowy but not greasy. I would highly recommend this product.

I was invited to try the Chapman's Super Premium Plus Vanilla Trilogy and I'm so glad I was.
This ice cream has three types of vanilla, Madagascar, Tahiti, and Papua New Guinea. Let me start by telling you that I LOVE ice cream and I generally like ice cream with complex flavours. This ice cream is wonderfully creamy, the flavours are straightforward and simply delicious.
It is peanut and egg free and goes beautifully with ANYTHING you want to pair it with.
I highly recommend this for even the most discerning ice cream connoisseur.

I'm a fan of cleansing oil but will be the first to tell you that they are not all equal. I've tried some that are heavy and hard to rinse away. I really enjoyed trying this product. It was gentle, lathered really well and rinsed away fairly clean. I did feel a little of the oil still on my skin, but IS an oil, and my skin felt more on the moisturized side than oily. I will also say that I had a skin irritation around my lips prior to using this and it did not bother me at all.
If you double cleanse, this is a great option for step one. I had an event where I had to wearup and I had it all on. It removed my makeup super easily and my ski felt prepped and ready for the 2nd step of the double cleanse.
I think that this is a great alternative to a makeup wipe as it removes the makeup easily with no tugging at the skin. I definitely would recommend.
