Thanks to Butterly, Chickadvisor and Chapman's I was given the chance to try Chapman's No Sugar Added Lactose-Free Coffee & Chocolate Ice Cream.
I am moderately Lactosose intolerant. That means that except for certain types of dairy products, I need Lactose Enzymes to be able to digest the food without problems. I developed this in my mid-20s.
The ice cream is rich-tasting, creamy and delicious. The coffee and chocolate flavors are balanced perfectly.
There is no sugar added, the ice cream is sweetened with Maltitol and Sucralose.
I was surprised to see fresh cream and skim milk powder in the ingredient list. There is lactase in the ingredients but down the list, and as it's consumed with the ice cream, it's usefulness is questionable. How lactose-free is the ice cream?
Overall I really enjoy Chapman's No Sugar Added Lactose-Free Coffee & Chocolate Ice Cream, but I will continue to do so with my lactose pills.

I was very excited about this flavor, and had high expectations. I love blueberry pie, blueberry crumble, blueberry crisp, and anything similar. The East Coast Blueberry Grunt is a stove top dessert that comprises a blueberry sauce with dough dumplings cooked within. The ice cream generally translates the concept, the ice cream itself is a lush and creamy vanilla, with ribbons of delicious sweet-tart blueberry coulis. There are pastry-like pieces scattered throughout to mimic the idea of the dumplings. The ice cream and coulis are incredible. The pastry bits have me on the fence, as I find they taste undercooked and chalky as well as too large and square. They might taste better broken up a bit more, or a bit better cooked, neither of which the eater can take care of. I still really enjoy the Canadian Desserts Blueberry Grunt ice cream, but it could be better. -

Vanilla is the standard against which I measure the quality of a brand. I expect the perfect vanilla ice cream to be rich, flavorful, creamy, the perfect balance of sweetness and a short ingredient list. This ice cream meets my requirements and satisfies my family. The carton doesn't last long in the freezer! -

Dental health is paramount, and is linked to good health in many other areas. Don't forget the teeth!
Colgate Total Advanced Professional Clean Toothpaste tackles the major concerns we face every day: cavities, tartar, plaque, enamel, gingivitis, sensitivity, breath. The new formula works to reduce bacteria on teeth, tongue, cheeks and gums to give that total clean feeling. The active ingredients are Sodium Fluoride, Zinc and Silicon Dioxide Hydrate.
My mouth and teeth were clean and fresh after use. I tested the toothpaste for a little over a week and while it kept additional stains at bay, I can't say it provided additional whitening. The Advanced Professional Clean Toothpaste causes a tingling sensation while brushing and a minute after, it's not irritating but present. The taste is minty, light and fresh.
Overall a good toothpaste, but be careful if you are sensitive.

Top Rated Beauty, Butterly and L'Oréal Paris were so kind as to send me the new Wrinkle Expert Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer Night cream to try for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
Wrinkle Expert Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer Night cream is a retino-peptide, moisture-locking formula aimed at people 45+ with the goals of fighting the look of wrinkles, improving smoothness and firmness, and reducing the signs of aging. The effects are cumulative, skin is moisturized and feels softer directly after applying, and after 4 weeks skin looks revitalized and nourished, feels firmer and fine lines and wrinkles look visibly reduced. I am 41 and have been using the cream at night for about 2 weeks. The immediate benefits come through; I am not far enough along to comment on the progressive benefits yet. I enjoy the rich and creamy feel of the cream, and a little goes a long way when applying. There is a light, fresh scent that is enjoyable and fades in a minute. The Night cream works very well for my dry skin at night, keeping my skin moisturized through till morning.
While there is a recommended age group for the cream, I would recommend it to any person of any age looking for rich creams with retino-peptide benefits. It did not cause any irritation and while scented, the scent fades and the other benefits remain and feel great!

Top Rated Beauty, Butterly and L'Oréal Paris were so kind as to send me the new Wrinkle Expert Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer Day cream to try for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
Wrinkle Expert Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer Day cream is a retino-peptide, moisture-locking formula aimed at people 45+ with the goals of visibly reducing the signs of aging. The effects are cumulative, skin is moisturized and feels softer and more supple directly after applying, after 2 weeks firmness has improved, in 4 weeks fine lines and wrinkles look visibly reduced. I am 41 and have been using the cream in the mornings for about 2 weeks. I have felt the immediate benefits, though I am not there with additional firmness. I have dry skin, especially now in winter, and I love how rich and soothing this cream feels, with a little going a very long way. I don't have to reapply like I need to do with lighter creams. I wish the rose scent was less pronounced, though it thankfully fades after a minute, it's the cream's only negative.
While there is a recommended age group for the cream, I would recommend it to any person of any age looking for rich creams with retino-peptide benefits. It did not cause any irritation and while scented, the scent fades and the other benefits remain and feel great!

Dove has created an incredible new deodorant that is refillable and stunning. It comes in three pieces, as shown with the men's set, a deodorant refill, and a stainless steel case (lid and base). You just snap the refill into the base, close the lid and done! As you see from the put together women's set, it's a great size and very handy. Fun fact, the steel base has a lifetime guarantee with Dove! The plastic pack protecting the refill during is made of 98% recycled plastic.
What I found great was that both the men and women's sets were exactly the same dimensions - if you prefer a scent labelled for another gender, you just buy it and pop it in. I have to say, the Clear Touch men's scent I gave to my brother to try smelled really good, fresh and aquatic, and I wouldn't mind trying it myself to beat the heat in the summer.
My brother tried the men's Clean Touch scent version, which has the same skincare benefits and case. When translating brother speak into normal language, I can relay that he enjoyed the deodorant and liked the scent. He liked the feel of it and that it didn't leave residue behind. As it isn't large, it took him a moment to figure out how to use it with his much larger hands, but now he is happy to have something small to take with him the next time he needs to stay anywhere overnight instead of a big clunky product.
Thank you Butterly, Dove, DoveMencare, SchmidtsNatural and ChickAdvisor for the opportunity to try this deodorant that we #gotitfree!

I am super picky when it comes to deodorant and anti-perspirant options. I want odor control, a decent to incredible scent if the product is scented that isn't going to announce my presence a mile away, or react with my body chemistry to make me smell even worse than a full day being strenuous under a hot sun. I want skincare too! We're 2022, a thick white gunky swath is a no-go. Speaking of white, it had better not make an appearance on my clothes! Finally, there has to be a way to do things better than we did before, for us and for the environment. I always scan shelves to see what is new and if it catches my attention.
Dove has created an incredible new deodorant that is refillable, gorgeous, and that checks all my boxes. It comes in three pieces, as I show with the men's set, a deodorant refill, and a stainless steel case (lid and base). You just snap the refill into the base, close the lid and done! As you see from the put together women's set, it's a great size and very handy. Fun fact, the steel base has a lifetime guarantee with Dove!

My experience with the women's Coconut & Pink Jasmine scent version has been fantastic. I am used to white solid or spray products, these are solid translucent/solid gel types. It feels different to me and a touch sticky for about 5 seconds after application, but then it's good. As mentioned, no white stains even on dark clothing! After a long days and stress as well as running around, I still smell good - WIN! The deodorant is aluminum free, and contains glycerin. I found it very easy to wash off as well, which kept my skin from getting irritated from scrubbing.
Thank you Butterly, Dove, DoveMencare, SchmidtsNatural and ChickAdvisor for the opportunity to try this deodorant that I #gotitfree!

I received a sample of Covergirl Clean Fresh Skincare Weightless Water Cream from ChickAdvisor and Butterly to try in exchange for my honest opinion. It was pretty small and I was afraid it wouldn't even be enough for a full-face trial.
I was very pleasantly surprised! Yes, the sample was tiny, but the Water Cream spread and applied beautifully. There was enough in a 1.5oz sample for my face down to my décolletage. The texture was of a gel-cream, and a little thicker than I imagined, until I remembered this could serve as a primer if needed. I experienced no irritation or pilling (which I find can happen with moisturizer-primer hybrids) and my skin feels smooth and moisturized even a few hours later, though it will not last anywhere near the 72hr claim mark with my dry skin. There is a light, fresh scent to the cream, and it does fade relatively quickly - just enough to provide a fresh touch.
I can't speak to long term effects, but my one-time experience has been positive. I would be interested in trying this longer term, and see it as an option to purchase.
