NIVEA Q10 Firming Body Lotion
Yeah yeah this moisturizes fine and great. But OH MY GOD THE SMELL!! it's amazing. Enough on its own but never too strong to compete with perfume. It's gentle enough for my LO wih sensitive skin. Plus I've actually noticed an improvement in my skin.

CeraVe Bébé Diaper Rash Cream
The quality of this stuff is really nice consistency, thick without being sticky but my little one is SO sensitive skinned and she broke out the first time we used it. (she has her dad's skin - and he gets chemical burns from most baby wipes!)

This did nothing for my stretch marks - BUT It is an amazing moisturizer so my skin around the stretch marks looked instantly better. That's a plus I guess, but I won't be buying a bikini any time soon.... I assume it would be great at preventing stretch marks during pregnancy or other planned weight gain.
I would recommend this for pregnant women who want to moisturize during the day - I remember getting so itchy! - not from being dry but from having all the oils and sticky shea butter under the hot spandex tops of all the maternity pants.... This would have saved a lot of mini-panick attacks and sweaty belly embarrassments.
I wish I knew about this stuff a year ago!
It is scent free, absorbs quickly (for real!) and i *swear* it isn't sticky or shiny afterwards. Is it possible that it also helps heal razor burn? Cause I think it did!
This would be an amazing choice for men who have dry skin and still want to look "manly" and not moisturized and dewy the way every other lotion seems to do.

received for free. I have genetic really dark circles (no bags) and I've tried it ALL. this made some difference, and I liked that it was scent free and non greasy so I could apply makeup right away.
This was very gentle, I had no reaction.
This has become my go-to day cream (I own about 20 eye creams!)

LOVE it here! always something new, different styles, I get everything from furniture, to spices to baby stuff and towels here. It is a go-to whenever I need anything for the house. In fact, we just bought our first home and every room is filled with homesense finds - which also seem to be the ones that get the most compliments!
some examples of finds over the past year:
pink glass drawer knobs and lamp for my newborn's room, toys and designer baby clothes
cowhide rug
various art pieces (canvas and framed)
kitchen placemats, dishtowels, mugs, serving ware, table runner
dog toys, bowls and beds
christmas and easter table decor and wreaths
bird house
pillows for the couch
ice bucket, bottle opener
night stand, coffee table, side chair
food - baking decor, spices, mixes, chips, BBQ sauce

A classic for a reason - one of the only soaps the whole family can use due to a slew of skin sensitivity issues (including a 6 month old), smells nice, very subtle, and just clean, and not that artificial clean everything is scented with these days. Very moisturizing, the bar lasts a long time, and the shape of it is really easy to hold (especially when bathing a little one!) It also comes in a smaller bar for travel! I always have this in my house, my grandmother and mother used it, and I will continue to use it as long as they make it. -

HATED this! - now my dishwasher does reccomend to use cascade, but how can there really be that much of a difference? - now i know! dishes weren't cleaned, everything came out somehow simultaneously with a trace of powdery film and greasy. I tried using 2 packs on my next wash and a hotter cycle, but it didn't help much. This is a dishwashing soap for the queen (or king) of pre-rinsing, and certainly not for anyone who puts in plastics or pots and pans. -

THE best dishsoap hands down! The blue Dawn has been a favourite for years (did you know it can save you from a bad home hair dye job?!) but this new formula doubles as a hand soap, leaving my counter that much less cluttered. My hands cant tell the difference, and since I've started using it, I use less hand cream. -
Ultra Palmolive Aroma Sensations — Lavender Dish Liquid
love the scent, but i would buy this just because it doesnt make my hands crack after washing dishes like most soap does.

LOVE! Our little one slept through the night at 3 months with these! Never had a diaper rash (she's 7 months), the adorable patterns and delivery are the best- no more late night diaper runs! and - it's cheaper than the big name brands! Would never switch back, have gotten all my mom friends and neighbours to switch over too. AND - they are compostable! (we pay per garbage bag in my county!) -
