I’ve never used a sealant before. I read the directions, then watched a short video tutorial online for tips, and set to work.
I used it around a new window we installed. It was very easy to use. Other sealants have a 24-48 hour dry time before paint can be applied, but this has a 15 minute dry time. It looks really good once dried.
Was really impressed with the product and ease of use.
Would definitely recommend!

Bai antioxidant drinks have many good attributes. Only 10 calories, 1 gram of sugar, and infused with antioxidants, they are a light refreshing drink to sip on those hot summer days. Any day, really.
There are quite a few exotic fruit flavour options. I would not recommend the Brasilia Blueberry. Before this, I had tried the Kula Watermelon and it was delightful. The blueberry flavour was just not for me, as I felt it had a medicinal taste.
Having one I did not enjoy and one I did, I will still purchase and try the other flavours. Bai drinks are a superior option to sugary sodas.

Whether a need or a want, having the proper machine is necessary to all coffee lovers.
This 12-Cup Programable Coffee Maker from Paderno is sleek, stylish, and brews a great cup.
Easy to program, you can also customize brew strength and batch size. The carafe boasts an ergonomic handle for easy pouring. The removable water reservoir makes filling easy and far less messy. (Anyone else end up pouring water all over the counter?!)
No more running out of filters, this comes with a built in filter basket.
If you just cannot wait for a cup, the pause capability allows you to pour mid-brew.
So many great features and the black stainless steel is an absolute stunner on your countertop.

My son has desperately been wanting to solve a Rubik’s Cube, but had only been able to solve one side. He asked me to do it and I spent hours watching a tutorial repeatedly to get it done. Very frustrating.
Rubik’s Cube Coach seemed very promising, and I was not disappointed.
Using only eight steps, this coach cube guides you through the process in easy and fun steps. Peeling off the stickers really helps one to focus on what matters for each step.
We have solved the cube multiple times, and now it’s just a matter of memorizing the algorithms before we can do it without the guide book.
This would make a great gift for anyone, young and old, interested in puzzles.

Chocolate ice cream is pretty standard. It’s my favourite flavour of ice cream. Even with all the other flavour options available, I still choose chocolate. It’s reliably delicious.
Chapman’s Super Premium Plus Chocolate Lover ice cream is definitely a stand out amongst all other brands. I was delightedly surprised to find this wasn’t ordinary chocolate ice cream. They’ve somehow managed to make it better.
It is velvety smooth and has a beautiful taste. It’s not too sweet. It’s just perfect. Dangerously so. I could easily eat the whole carton in a sitting.
Chapman’s remains to be a favourite in our home. Bravo

I was supposed to receive Primitive, but have instead received Baker boards. Different artwork, but all the same otherwise.
My kids were very excited to rip into these boards right away. They’ve played with them at friends’ houses but have never had their own. After deciding who gets what, they were ready to get at it.
There was initial excitement and enthusiasm at the prospect of building the boards. This did not last long. My children became quickly frustrated, and I frantically gathered the ripped pieces of packaging to look for instructions. No such luck. Fortunately, I am clever enough (and it’s easy enough) to figure out assembly. Once I sorted the children and got them going they happily built their boards.
They come with necessary tools and teeny tiny screws. By some miracle none were lost during assembly. We, as a family, do enjoying building projects, and this is a fun toy to figure out.
The kids have been playing happily with them and finger boarding all over the house. Tech Deck boards are really cool, just be prepared to help little ones

Okay, I’m done trying different deodorants. This is it. This is “The One”.
Packaging is your like your basic deodorant but cuter somehow? Maybe it’s the rounded smooth contours. I got Hello’s clean + fresh scent. Oh my goodness, it smells incredible. This is my scent. This is what I want to smell like. I take a look and expected a typical white stick, but it’s gray. Huh? Another glance at it and I see it is deodorant with charcoal, and charcoal is the new cool thing, so, makes sense. It glides on nice, and I haven’t noticed any left behind residue. Really enjoying the smell.
Fast forward a couple days and I am bundled up (it’s winter), frantically cleaning the house, and sweating. I peel off some layers and I stink. Bad. I grab my Hello deodorant and instantly smell great again. No trace of my previous funk. Amazing. Later I had my spouse give me a smell test and he said I smelled like nothing, which is preferable to smelling of hot garbage.
It works. It works very well. And not only does it work, it’s cruelty free, and contains no aluminum, parabens, or baking soda. Oh, and the container is made from recycled materials, because of course it is. All around perfect.

What a great toothbrush! I had never tried a powered toothbrush before. They either seemed too expensive, or, with the cheap ones, it felt wasteful to continuously buy and toss a battery powered thing. Colgate’s Optic White Pro Series Battery Powered Toothbrush has solved all the problems I had with those cheap ones.
It comes with batteries (good batteries, not generic), you can buy replacement heads, and its price point is so affordable for just about everyone. And it has a two minute timer. Perfect! Thank you, Colgate.
I was expecting a spin brush, but it is not. It just vibrates. That’s okay, though. have a bad habit of pressing too hard when I brush and this toothbrush has really been helping to break that habit. When I press hard I can feel the vibration. Also, the vibration is so nice on the gums. I’m truly enjoying brushing my teeth.
I’d certainly recommend this brush.

This is stuff is nice! I am a fan of serums, and Clarins Double Serum is top notch.
Just a small amount mixed together and your on your way to you get looking skin. I’m at the age where I’m desperate for younger looking skin. My face is feeling smoother and has a bit of a glow, which is lovely.
It has a two-phase formula combining plant extracts. It boosts your skin’s 5 viral functions : hydration, protection, regeneration, nutrition, and oxygenation. Clarins Double Serum is suitable for all skin types, ages, and ethnicities.
Fantastic!

With kids back in school they’re sure to be bringing home germs.
My child recently woke up with a sore throat and headache providing me with the perfect opportunity to try out Tylenol’s Easy Dissolve Acetaminophen Powder.
It’s ready to use, no water needed. Just tear package and pour onto your child’s tongue. Luckily, it has a great flavour, natural wild berry, that my kid liked.
It’s dye-free, sucrose-free, and most importantly, gentle on the stomach.
Between the ease of use and approval from my child, I’ll definitely be sure to always keep this in our medicine cabinet!
