[As part of a free product testing] The flawless cleanse came charged and ready to use after an initial wash. The packaging was childproof and a little hard to open, but showed it was a new product without it being tampered. It is nice having a rechargeable product without the need to constantly purchase batteries. The instructions are clear and it is simple to use with one button to select the multiple modes and a long press to turn it off. The cleanser is gentle and the massage mode has been nice to work with my facial cleaners and serum products I already have at home. Can see and feel the difference after a few uses. Recommend if you're looking for a similar for at-home use.

If your child is a fan of PAW PATROL, Rocky is a great addition to their imagination and the paw patrol team. Rocky's wheels turn round and round. The orange forklifts actually move - although additional pieces might be needed to attempt to lift anything - maybe some lego blocks. The back hatch opens to store whatever Rocky is collecting in his recycling truck. The little blue recycle bins initially looked like they would detach but they do not. No small pieces here. And all parts made of recyclable materials. The cardboard packaging did have an odd smell but there were minimal zip ties and trash. We love having Rocky to add to our home.

The individually packaged Black Elderberry Sambucol tasted good and was easy to make. The package did say to mix with 100-200ml of water. I tried it with 100ml and it wasn't too sweet, but it did leave granules of sugar(?) that did not dissolve. It had good flavour and was better than chewing a tablet.
Thanks for the free sample - just in time for cold and flu season.

The Paderno classic non-stick champagne bronze fry pan takes a bit of time to heat up on medium to high heat or a larger stove top is required. It is oversized for larger stir frys or omletes, but might be too big for the standard stove top without an oversized diameter stove top. It is compatible for electric, gas, ceramic, halogen and induction stove tops. We got it for free and tried it with an electric stove top and it was truly non-stick, easy to clean, and cooked evenly. We tested the pan on a simple stove top stirfry to roast some veggies for a vegetable soup. I look forward to finding a recipe to test it in the oven as it says it is oven safe up to 400 deg F with its silicone gripped handles. -

The Aveeno Tone and Texture daily renewal lotion came as a free full size sample with Butterly. It was easy to open and dispensed an adequate amount. Using the lotion provided immediate relief and moisturization. I thought it had a very subtle minimal scent of oat which was nice. It did not leave a greasy texture. I look forward to seeing the effects of improving texture after longer useage. -

The calm and restore skin therapy balm was received as a free sample. It is easy to dispense the right amount - start with less - and add as needed. It is a balm, so the consistency is thicker than cream. I like how it doesn't smell like anything and is easy to apply. I'm excited to have some options for sensitive skin which may encounter rough spots, redness or even those pesky weeds in the garden on a hike. I can't wait to let my father try it on his skin, in which the dryness has prevented a full recovery. A balm - but light weight at the same time deeply moisturizes the skin. -

The Aveeno Calm and Restore Nourishing PHA Exfoliator was received as a free sample from Butterly. It does not have any smells, additional coloration or beads on initial inspection. The container is easy to use - and you only need a small dime-size amount for each back of palm. It can be applied on wet hands and washed off, OR on dry hands and wiped off or left on. This was the most amazingly awesome part. There was a visible difference right away - looking moisturized and more supple and healthy. I could see myself using this during the dry winter season but also after a busy day at work - once at home or on the go. I'm excited to try this on my arms and legs after seeing the difference on my hands. -

The PAW Patrol Aircraft Carrier HQ was a larger toy than expected received as a free trial from Spin Master. The Aircraft Carrier came with a Chase figurine and their rescue vehicle. There were many compartments, spring-loaded buttons and the music/sound button which captured the awe and joy of our children. Three AAA batteries were not included in the box but were relatively simple to install. The stickers required an adult - and at times were challenging to place, but did finish the appeal of the car and the aircraft carrier. Just be cautioned that it does extend up to 37 inches - you might need to find room to play and store this toy. The HQ center included storage for the included Chase vehicle and any additional purchases. The Chase vehicle did fit, but only in one orientation which may take a few tries for younger children to figure out.
The meteor core would only make sense to those who watched the movie. It lit up in various colours, had the theme song of the PawPatrol song and several other audio clips. The kids had a blast with this feature.
The launch ramps were easy to use and reset. Added perk - It was nice that the kids' could integrate their own cars and Paw Patrol toys could visit the command center. The Chase vehicle actually zoomed really far when it was launched on level ground. Luckily we had two launch ramps for two children. They had so much fun they couldn't wait their turn. They could both play at their own pace and to their hearts' content.
The toy also featured two projectile launchers with 4 projectiles. We decided with the pets and the children were too young to play with these parts at this time. The toy is recommended for 4 and up.
Future plays will see how all parts and attachments survive the popularity and repeated play of launches.
Oversized and pricey but a big hit with Paw Patrol fans.

The Bai Antioxidant Infusion Malawi Mango was provided as a full sized sample. It is flavoured water with 1g of sugar. It's nice that it is low sugar, but it makes it more water than a drink and makes the mango flavour more subtle. My partner thought the flavour was not mango-y enough and that the colour of the drink was off-putting; almost deceiving to the flavour and what it was.
Best served cold on a hot day

I got this as a free trial. I do like the applicator - it allowed for a handsfree application of the product. I do recommend wiping it before recapping.
It did the have a trace of the typical smell of a Nair product. Although it had coconut milk and was for sensitive skin and I completed a swatch test, it caused irritation on my lip line. I do not recommend using this as a new product before going to a major event.
It effectively removed all the fine fuzz, but seemed to make the darker and thicker hair fuzz behind. May require a longer or multiple application. Unfortunately, I will be sticking to tweezers.
