I received a sample of this product to test and review for free, and was very impressed! It's true to its name - has a pleasant, light, cotton (?) smell, not quite like fresh laundry but almost...either way between that and that newborn baby smell I'm in heaven :) It gently cleaned baby and left skin feeling so soft. Looking forward to the next bath! -

It's refreshing to see all natural ingredients, and the sauce mix is actually made with real dehydrated cheese! It definitely tastes like cheese instead of artificial flavouring.
My only complaint is that the box is tiny - it's literally enough for one adult-sized bowl of pasta, so plan on buying multiple boxes if you're going to feed a family!

I grew up eating a competitor's brand and was quite used to the artificial flavour. Needless to say I was shocked when I tried Annie's and it actually tasted like cheddar cheese!
Pros: Creamy, real cheese taste. Shell shaped pasta fits easily on a spoon - perfect for the little ones!
Cons: Cheese does not dissolve that easily, so follow the directions and mix it with milk before adding in the pasta! I made the mistake of adding it after the pasta and ended up with some clumps.
The box is SMALL - literally enough for one bowl for an adult. Good thing this is sold at Costco, because you need multiple boxes to make a meal!

I love the scent and light feel and how it doesn’t make my face look oily or greasy. However - don’t do what my husband did and rub it haphazardly over your whole face - any contact with eyes or the eye area results in a burning sensation!... +
I love the scent and light feel and how it doesn’t make my face look oily or greasy. However - don’t do what my husband did and rub it haphazardly over your whole face - any contact with eyes or the eye area results in a burning sensation! Careful application is best with this product. -
Tasty, but not my favourite. I like Mars bars better (basically the exact same except no nuts and softer nougat filling). It'll still satisfy a chocolate craving though!

I ordered a bottle of “Shea Butter Beautifying Dry Oil for Body, Face & Hair” back on Boxing Day - 50% off plus free shipping. Came out to $8, yay! I bought it specifically for my arms as I’ve had keratosis pilaris for as long as I can remember and as anyone who has it knows, it’s incurable and all we can do is manage. I will start off by saying the scent is quite strong, so I prefer this oil for nighttime use (I put it on right after I shower). It absorbs quite quickly, and I’m amazed at the “dry” finish - how has it taken me this long to try dry oil?!? And of course, the best part - my skin is SO soft, well into the next few days - even my husband complimented me! I do wish it came with a dropper, as some inevitably ends up on the lid or sides no matter how careful I am. But otherwise, I love this oil and highly recommend, just make sure to wait for a sale! -

When I told a makeup artist I normally don’t wear lipstick but needed something relatively inexpensive (I’m sure what I actually said was something like, “I don’t want to waste money on something I’ll never use again” lol) for an upcoming wedding, she pointed me in the direction of Essence makeup. I discovered their "longlasting lipstick" and I am hooked! After my success with their lipstick, I had to try the mascara, and it's by far the best I've tried - the "False Lash Effect" above is specifically designed for short, fine lashes like mine! It does a fantastic job separating lashes and making them look super long. Did I mention the products are cruelty free and most products are in and around $5 at Shoppers Drug Mart? -

I’ve only been using this for about a week so I probably need more time to figure out how this should fit into my routine. Right now I apply two drops to my face right before bed. While I haven’t noticed any significant changes, my skin is definitely softer and more hydrated. I’m excited to see what happens after long term use! -
