With the brand name Beautyrest, I thought these would be a great set of sheets. They're cotton but in the package looked/felt somewhat silky; however, they were the material version of "sticky" (needed effort to roll over with the PJs "sticking"). Never before have I felt the need to iron sheets after washing them, but these came out of the dryer as the most wrinkled thing I've ever seen. They collect every hair from my cat whereas none of my other sheet sets collect her hair nearly as badly. I wish I could take them back but I've used them. -

I received this in order to review it. It's very moisturizing; quite helpful in this dry climate and with so much hand washing these days. It didn't sting my dry/broken skin. It barely has a scent to it and what is there is pleasant. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it feels a bit greasy for a while longer than my usual lotion, but it would work great has a hand lotion right before bed. -

I've subscribed to Beachbody On Demand for nearly two years now and will renew my subscription when it comes up. If you prefer to work out at home you will have a hard time getting bored with these workouts. There are over 1,000 individual workouts (within several different programs) and they keep adding more. You can search for a workout based on your fitness level, workout length, type of workout (strength/cardio/yoga), etc. and there is a modifier for every exercise. I stream the workouts on my laptop, it's available on newer versions of Apple TV and they have an app. Another major bonus, it's only ~$100 CAD for the entire year!! -

I've wasted too much money in the search for a soft enough "extra soft" toothbrush. This is the only toothbrush I've found that doesn't feel like I'm brushing my teeth with a rake. After finding the Sensodyne Sensitive toothbrush, I haven't bought any other kind and will continue to buy this brand until they (hopefully never!) stop making them. -

I bought some cat-safe plants but Sophie kept wanting to eat them so I thought I'd give Catit Cat Grass a try. It took only a few days for the grass to poke through and as soon as it was long enough to nibble, my girl was hooked! The grass lasted a couple weeks and I've already bought the three-pack set to grow more grass. The green protective screen (to prevent digging) was pushed up as the grass grew so I removed it and luckily, Sophie didn't dig in the planter. -

Pros: Easy & convenience. The smell is also quite appealing.
Cons: At least 50% of the time, the pod doesn't open and distribute properly so clothes come out with detergent stuck to them. Luckily this has happened only on hang to dry clothes so I could rinse out the detergent then hang them. I really don't want to find out what happens to the clothes if they go into the dryer with detergent stuck to them.
I quite like the concept of the Tide pods, but would only buy them again if Tide finds a way to fix the 'not distributing detergent properly' problem.

John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray

I needed something to cover the grey until my next color appointment so I thought I'd try this spray. So happy I tried it! I could see a difference with the first application and couldn't see any grey after the second use. The instructions say to use a flattening iron (for the heat), but the hair dryer was enough for it to work on my fine/thin hair. My hair color is naturally dark blonde/light brown and this lightened it a little bit too much for my preference, but if you want blonde, this is for you! I will definitely use this again when the grey starts to show! -

I tried Hydrasense Eucalyptus and it is wonderful. Oddly enough, you'll look forward to spraying it up your nose because you'll get instant relief after blowing your nose. In the dry climate I live in, I get congested easily and also easily congested on hot summer days. It's not habit forming so you can use it as much as needed. I will definitely buy this again but a bottle lasts quite a long time. -
