This tub goes quite a long way! You can use it on your face, body etc but mind that it's a bit thick so it can get a bit greasy when used on face (Depending on season and your skin type). I like to use this one when my skin is quite dehydrated at night, and in the morning my skin doesnt flake anymore! -

Voilà By Sobeys/Safeway Grocery Delivery & Curbside Pickup

Full disclosure: I received a code as part of the program, but in all honesty I found a better code and used it instead of the one provided here.
The Voila service is easy to use and all the ingredients delivered in the exact 1-hr window as promised. Very impressed with that! They also called the morning of to confirm the delivery which was very much appreciated, especially since the order was placed a few days prior and it's easy to forget things like these.
The prices are Sobeys prices, so they tend to be a bit higher than stores like Walmart for instance but that is to be expected. Everything arrived in good condition (no missing items, no broken items) so for that I am satisfied with the order.
However, unlike some other delivery sites, they do charge a $8 delivery fee which can definitely add up, and would not recommend if you can do free pick up at Sobeys or at another grocery store with ease.

UberEats
The markup (for both consumer and restuarants) is insane - on average about 30% more. I usually only use the service if a) there is a good promo running or b) I absolutely need to use the service, and even then I try to use pickup to avoid paying... +

Kraft Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa
While this is still creamy and has a hazelnut flavour, I would still generally prefer Nutella over this. While it has no palm oil, I am not sure what other oils it uses that could be worse - at least I have read that Nutella uses sustainable palm... +
While this is still creamy and has a hazelnut flavour, I would still generally prefer Nutella over this. While it has no palm oil, I am not sure what other oils it uses that could be worse - at least I have read that Nutella uses sustainable palm oil but I'm hesitant because I dont know what else is in here. Also, I find that at some parts after the jar is opened, it isnt as creamy. -
Nestlé Splash Water with Lemon
This has a light lemon taste, almost like the aftertaste of when lemon rinds soak in water for a long time. It's not overly sweet but not super flavourful and it's a bit weird.

TP tea is located in richmond hill, and their milk teas use tieguanyin as a base and is a bit stronger than some other bbtea places (ie. regular chatime milk tea). They also have a unique topping called qq noodles, which is the same texture as tapioca but in a 3-4" long strip (vs. a circle sphere). mulberry sea salt crema is pretty good too, tastes like a blueberry cheesecake to me -
Chatime Toronto
Chatime here is fairly consistent with the other locations, and has a small amount of pastries available from Bake Code for sale. The location at Yonge and Steeles is new and is clean as well

Tony Moly Floria Nutra-Energy Toner with Argan Oil
This is a toner that is a bit thicker, almost like a serum vs. watery and requires a cotton pad. Because of that, it doesn't feel as cleansing as I think it could. However, it dries very fast and makes it easy for my next steps of application.
