I found the primer to be thicker then many others I've tried, which I liked. It went on more like a moisturizer and absorbed much quicker than I expected. I definitely liked this. It provided a good base for my foundation. The jury is still out on whether I like the scent. Some mornings I did and on others, I felt that it was a bit much. It's a bright and fresh scent - perhaps citrus - so if you're looking for a low / no scent option, this isn't for you. Bonus points for the cruelty free aspect. I'd say this product is definitely worth a try! -
Lovefresh Body Goodies: Pink Grapefruit & Tangerine Lotion

If you like fresh light scents, this is great. I love the citrus combo of grapefruit and tangerine. It's bright and fresh, but not overpowering. It's not too thick, but coats well and there is a slight cooling sensation when you apply it. I do find that it doesn't provide long-lasting moisturizing, however. I use it as a hand lotion and the pump makes it convenient for my desktop at work. Unfortunately, given the price tag, I don't think I'd really be willing to buy it again. -
Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Abricot
I'm not at all a lover of perfumes. At best, a simple body spray is what I wore from time to time. Until this scent met my nose. I loved it as soon as I smelled it and I had to have it. A little steep given that I never spent money on perfumes... +
I'm not at all a lover of perfumes. At best, a simple body spray is what I wore from time to time. Until this scent met my nose. I loved it as soon as I smelled it and I had to have it. A little steep given that I never spent money on perfumes before, but well worth it. Ok.... I'll be honest and admit that I actually got it as a gift, so *I* didn't actually buy it. BUT that was Christmas 2016 and I still have about a half of a bottle left. I wear it pretty much every day, so it lasts a long time. And I'm not exaggerating when I say I have people comment that I "smell so good" on a regular basis.
It's a great option for people who do not like floral scents. It's also not overpowering. I work with a girl who is VERY sensitive to scents and it doesn't bother her at all. She even often reminds me how good I smell :)
Buy it. Try it. You'll love it.

Black Diamond Cheestrings

With 2 little ones, there are always cheese sticks in the fridge. Black Diamond isn't the only brand we buy, but it's a common one. I'll admit that I'll go with the cheaper option if I see an alternative on sale, but there are brands that the kiddos won't eat and this one is a on the "approved" list. I know cheese sticks are more costly than blocks that I can cut up myself, but you have to appreciate the convenience for lunches and on-the-go snacks. And kids love playing as they eat, of course! -

I have curly hair that's prone to frizz. I'm always looking for moisturizing products and saw this on sale one day. I was pretty pleased with the results. It has a nice scent, it's thick and coats well, and I did see some improvement after use. I would say it's a little pricing to use on a regular basis, but I stock up when I see it on sale and use it from time to time. It's something I'd suggest to give a try if you're thinking about it. -
Maybelline New York Lash Sensational Mascara
I need to have my mascara on. Even if it's a minimal make-up kind of day, a little mascara makes a difference. I've searched for mascara options that I could live with. I've found some that I like, but I didn't like the high price tag. Many cheaper... +
I need to have my mascara on. Even if it's a minimal make-up kind of day, a little mascara makes a difference. I've searched for mascara options that I could live with. I've found some that I like, but I didn't like the high price tag. Many cheaper options didn't deliver for me. This one was recommended by a friend and I really liked it. When it's not paired with liner and shadow, I feel like this mascara is still noticeable, but still somewhat "natural", which I like. I'll probably still keep trying out other options, but for now, this is my go-to. -

I enjoy crunchy snacks, but I'm not a big cracker fan. Triscuit's hearty texture seems to make a difference, however. I think what really won be over was the flavour selection that they offer. The Originalis ok - a good option with high-flavour cheeses, in my opinion, but the "fancier" options are my go-to. I'll admit, I'm not a fan of certain flavours (e.g. Cracked Pepper, Rosemary), but I love the Roasted Garlic, Balsamic Vinegar, and Dill Sea Salt. A box doesn't normally last too long once it's opened ;) -
Dairy Queen Blizzard Cakes

In our family, we have a few allergies to deal with. That means regular cakes are normally not an option. Ice cream cake to the rescue! With little ones in the mix, it's ALWAYS a pleaser. For smaller gathers, I like the option of the log-style cakes as well. Some may think the price tag is a little steep for a cake, but when you compare to bakery options, it's really not, in my opinion. DQ cakes will definitely continue to be on our menu as a great treat. -
