I received the Panoxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches from Butterly for free for testing and reviewing purposes. I have to say I was slightly skeptical as I've unfortunately had to try quite a few acne patches and spot treatments over the years. However, these ones truly did impress me! My favourite aspect of these is that they don't slide off or fall off after putting on your skincare. My biggest pet peeve with acne patches over the years have been if I do my nightly skincare routine and forget to put them on BEFORE using my moisturizer or serums, they slide right off OR if I used them on bare skin, the adhesive is too sticky and takes off a layer of skin with it when I remove it. The Panoxyl ones can be used over skincare or under skincare and don't slide or fall off and have easy removal. The patches are also thin and relatively invisible, however, I have not tried them during the day. After using them overnight, I notice a significant reduction in redness and swelling and even a reduction in pain for any cystic pimples. I definitely recommend these acne patches if you're dealing with acne, they are some of the best on the market and I've tried a lot LOL. Also great for keeping in reserve if you have an upcoming special occasion to reduce any inflammation or pimples that may pop-up beforehand!

This is a lovely lightweight moisturizer. It absorbs fairly quickly and it does leave a bit of residue afterwards but not a greasy one. This moisturizer is hydrating, but not for EXTREMELY dry skin. I have patches of eczema that I was hoping this would work well on and it is not quite hydrating enough for those patches. For the rest of the body, it does an excellent job of moisturizing. It is unscented but as it does contain oats, there is a very slight oat smell. Overall, it is a lovely gel moisturizer and perfect for those with sensitive skin. -

I would describe this perfume as a nice sweet nectarine that fades down into a soft floral scent, with a slight note of amber. The Bergamot definitely comes through as well which provides a nice light scent very reminiscent of springtime. It is more of a gentle scent and the actual nectarine note seems to fade very quickly, leaving the floral base behind. When the perfume dries down, it is VERY VERY LIGHT. This would be more of perfume to wear when you want to be able to smell the scent yourself and not have anyone else smell it. The actual light scent when it dries down does last quite a while, but again, it is subtle and not overwhelming. What stands out most to me about this perfume is the relatively short ingredient list and is very safe comparatively to other perfumes. I do appreciate that this has a nice water base that has hydrating benefits, however I don’t know how relevant this is to using it as a perfume. The one advantage of the hydrating benefits would be using it as a hair perfume and not having to worry about it drying your hair out, but I received a rollerball and so I cannot attest to this. I would recommend this to individuals who want a nice light perfume without endocrine modulators that will not overwhelm those that are sensitive to fragrances. The rollerball is extremely convenient and provides a lot of versatility as I can easily through it in my gym bag, purse, or use it at home. Overall, I would purchase this product for days that I want a light scent or for daytime wear!

I have been struggling with hormonal acne for over a year now. I've tried multiple brands of pimple patches over the past year, and I will say I am extremely impressed with these. I tried these patches for the first time last night specifically on an area that had a very large cystic pimple and a few healing pimples & some active pimples. I can honestly say that these pimple patches were, by far, the easiest to put on and had the best adhesiveness out of any other brand I've used. They are much larger than most other brands which I really really like. Typically my pimples tend to group together so the bigger size was really nice because it was able to target more of the problem area without using a ton of patches. Waking up this morning I noticed right away that the redness had come down significantly. My cystic pimple was still there, but it had reduced in size and looked less angry. The other pimples that had been healing had faded quite a bit and again the other active pimples had greatly reduced. These are the first "overnight" pimple patches I've used that truly did not budge during the night. The other really nice thing about these is that they are very transparent so it isn't extremely noticeable that you are wearing them. I also really like that the patches have Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid, and Vitamin C in them as opposed to just being a hydrocolloid patch. Overall, I definitely will be buying these in the future as I did notice a large difference in comparison to other brands.
