I haven’t used Nair in ages. The applicator was nice, but ultimately I had the same issues with this product as with all my other attempts at using Nair. There’s a faint watermelon smell that disappears very quickly and is replaced by Nair’s signature scent. I wish the instructions were clear on just how thick of a layer is needed. I applied what I thought was thick, without using the whole tube, and not only were patches left untouched but some hairs that were affected were just wilted but not removed. I left the cream on for almost the maximum amount of time too, and still ended up shaving. Not worth it for me! -

A bit of a pain to find since it’s not available at every grocery store in this specific size (500ml). Advertised as “convenient” sizing but to me just overpriced - you’re paying extra for packaging instead of the product. Flavour wise the ice cream is delicious and you can tell it’s good quality, but I can’t justify the price tag and therefore can’t recommend it. -
Aveeno® Baby Daily Wash & Shampoo - Coconut Scent & Shea Butter

I love Aveeno products, especially for baby. This smells amazing, like coconut, but I was disappointed to see parfum as an ingredient. I’d rather have an unscented product or one with an extra mild scent for baby than one with additives just for the purpose of scenting, which is why I took off one star. -
Gillette Venus Pubic Hair and Skin Razor

I’ll start off by saying I am a loyal Gillette customer. However, as a female I buy only “men’s” Gillette razors. All of the selling features of this razor make it worse than the men’s. The moisturizing strip prevented me from getting close enough to the skin to get a close shave. ONLY TWO blades meant hairs weren’t effectively trimmed. Both of these features would result in more regular shaves required, thereby further irritating delicate skin. However, my 5 blade “men’s” razor gives me smooth skin that lasts.
The handle was fine, probably the only positive thing about the razor.

Gillette Venus 2-in-1 Cleanser And Shave Gel

This product is a little weird. Too much rubbing and it lathers (albeit not well) and I find soap works better. Not enough rubbing and it goes on like a thick gel (as advertised) but was honestly too thick to get a close shave. Not worth paying extra for a separate product when bar soap works just fine. -

I really wanted to like this conditioner, but it's not for my hair type. I have thin, fine hair that gets greasy fast and volume is a struggle. Unfortunately this conditioner is very thick and heavy, and weighed my hair down. If anything it looked greasy faster than usual, so the product didn't live up to its claims. I blame my hair type vs the conditioner, and this would probably work really well for someone with thicker hair! -

As someone with thin, fine hair that gets greasy quick, I was really excited to try this shampoo. The scent is interesting, floral with something unique, but not strong or long-lasting. My hair felt clean after use, but it came nowhere close to lasting 48h. My hair had less volume than it does with other shampoos, so this is not for me. -
Firebuds Core Jayden and Piston
Firebirds isn’t my daughter’s favourite show, but she doesn’t have many cars and Jayden looks like some of her classmates, so she was excited! The figure is a decent size and the legs bend. The car is cute and rolls well. However -... +
Firebirds isn’t my daughter’s favourite show, but she doesn’t have many cars and Jayden looks like some of her classmates, so she was excited!
The figure is a decent size and the legs bend. The car is cute and rolls well.
However - Jayden is designed to stand in Piston instead of sit, which is not intuitive - my daughter bent his legs to sit him down only to discover he didn’t fit. There’s a little raised plastic bit in Piston that a hole in the bottom of Jayden’s feet matches. However, there’s no satisfying click - Jayden doesn’t stick and instead falls over as soon as you move the car. Basically, they cannot be used together. The car is cute, otherwise I would’ve given this as low a rating as possible.

PAW Patrol, Aqua Pups Rocky and Sawfish Action Figures Set

It’s cute, but nothing exciting. Rocky balances on Sawfish’s back, but doesn’t actually stay on, which is why I took off stars - the pictures show Rocky riding and that’s really not possible. The toy is just meh.

I received a sample of this product free in exchange for my honest review.
I want to like natural deodorants, I really do. But they’re just not as effective as traditional deodorants, at least for me. The sage & eucalyptus scent is nice, but very strong on application. However, it only takes a few hours to die down. Consistency is that of a gritty soft solid, so I had to be wary of transfer to clothing and it didn’t feel that nice going on. It also promises 24h protection - I think not, I work a sedentary desk job and it definitely didn’t last for the entire work day.
