I've been using this product for the last few weeks and i couldn't be more thankful that I've had it during these cold winter days. The texture and consistency is thick smooth (like a body butter) but melts right into my skin. It smells incredible and doesn't leave my skin feeling oily whatsoever.

This mineral sunscreen offers broad-spectrum protection in a convenient, easy-to-use spray. It’s formulated for sensitive skin and contains no irritating fragrances or harsh chemicals. It dries quickly and leaves a soft, matte finish without feeling greasy or sticky. Ideal for outdoor activities and reapplication throughout the day.
Because it’s a mineral spray, it can leave a slight white cast, especially on deeper skin tones. You’ll need to rub it in for even coverage, which defeats the “spray-and-go” appeal a bit. The nozzle can clog over time if not cleaned properly. It's also not the most travel-friendly due to its larger size.

This one is going to be hard to beat. The cream itself is not super thick but boy does it pack a punch! It is instantly hydrating but doesn't feel greasy at all. It absorbs easily into my skin and I feel hydrated for hours. In particular, I noticed a big difference in my hands which tend to be the most dry during the winter. I'm also obsessed with the fresh smell of jasmine and ylang-ylang. The packaging is simple yet sleek and I love seeing refillable options!

For the first time in my life I was excited to breakout so I could finally put these patches to the test lol I'll be honest and say that I haven't had the best experience with acne patches in the past as they would usually fall off and don't seem to do much to help the recovery process so I was skeptical going into this. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I woke up and the patches were still locked into place working its magic. I also want to mention that the ready-to-grab tabs were more helpful than I thought! Normally, with smaller patches, it's hard to get the right placement since my fingers are blocking my vision, but these tabs ensure that you're able to place them correctly without touching the sticky side.
My main feedback is that I wish the patches were slightly larger. Despite the ready-to-go tabs being a helpful feature, when you place the patch on top of your pimple, you still need to push down around it to stick. If your pimple is unfortunately taking up most of the patch's space, then there isn't much to push down on to secure the patch.

PanOxyl :crescent_moon: PM Blemish Brightening Patches
As you can see in the photo, I was so excited to receive this in the mail that I couldn't wait to try them before I even took pictures of the product :see_no_evil: Something that I personally struggle with is acne scarring and dark spots which is why I was so eager to test this product. The patches are on the larger side (compared to regular pimple patches) which I love as it can target a greater area at once. The patches themselves are super sticky and stayed on all night without budging one bit.
Since I was only sent 4 patches, I was not able to test it for the full 10 days which PanOxyl claims is the minimum amount of time needed to see visible improvements. Due to this, I can't confidently speak to the effectiveness of the product. However, as a brand, I know that PanOxyl is a super reputable and the ingredients used in the patch make me hopeful that it will produce good results.

Vacuum sealers should definitely be a staple in everyone's kitchen! They help you save space, reduce food waste and most importantly, save money. My FoodSaver came with 2 zipper bags but they also sell containers which I think are more versatile and worth the investment.
Overall, the product itself works well but I would caution that you need to hold down the button the entire time which can take awhile depending on the size or your bag/container. The only reason I bring this up is because other vacuum sealers I have used in the past require just 1 touch to start and will automatically stop when all the air has been taken out (so it would be a more passive experience. I would also say that although the charging station is compact, I don't love that I have added another charging device in my home and wish it used a usb-c cable instead so that it could be compatible with my existing charging accessories.

This sleek and modern chandelier has completely revamped and elevated the look of the space in my home. I'm so pleased with how it looks and the installation process was easy enough for this to be a great way to transform your space without breaking the bank or your back.
Some notes on installation to be aware of:
- Screws to mount with the junction are not provided
-There was no hook/strap to hold the fixture up while connecting the cables
-The lock washers and nuts were very easy to drop and hard to fasten to the fixture while mounting
-Lightbulbs are also not provided

Incorporating this mouthwash into my routine this last week has elevated my oral and dental healthcare to the next level. In the past I have tried mouthwash and I just couldn't keep up with it in my routine because the alcohol made it so unbearable and intense. On the other hand, this alcohol free formula from Listerine has completely solved that problem. After using this product my mouth feels so clean and fresh and I don't feel nervous about going into my next dental check up because I know I'm finally taking care of my teeth properly. -

I tried shades 1B, 3B, and 44B and truthfully, I couldn't tell the difference on my lips. The colours are quite sheer so whichever shade you get, it's likely to compliment and match you regardless. The butter balms are hydrating and apply smoothly on my lips. They didn't leave an oily feel which is a non-negotiable for my lip products. I'm super impressed with the luxurious packaging as it feels high quality and makes me feel so :sparkles:rich:sparkles: whenever I grab this product. That being said, the price is quite inaccessible to most people and I can't say that it drastically outperformed my other butter balms to justify the price. It's an effective product but pricey for most. -

When I first tried this product, I didn't realize just how pigmented it would be so I looked like a sunburnt clown on my first go. So this is my warning, a little goes a LONG WAY with this cheek tint. Just a tiny dot will be enough. However, this pigmentation is what makes this cheek tint great and not to mention the colour I received looks amazing. Without a setting spray, the colour does wear off throughout the day (which is normal) so don't expect the colour to stay on all day. Overall, I'm so pleased with this cheek tint from Armani Beauty and look forward to trying some of their other products!
