Like the other products in this line, I LOVE the scent so much. It doesn't smell fake, but real herbal mixture that is pleasing. It actually did lighten my skin tone faster (compared to another serum I tried), and while I have no redness or irritation from blemishes so can't attest to that, I would buy this just for the skin tone brightening actually working. -

This moisturiser did actually feel like it helped my skin tone (forehead has slight variation to rest of face) and hydrated. I felt like I was putting nothing but an amazing scent on while working this into the skin, so it's perfect for summer in that regard. I don't know that it reduced the appearance of blemishes, but I don't have much besides old chicken pox marks, and those didn't seem to go away.
Overall, pretty good product and I like that it is paraben, gluten, and cruelty-free.

This has a light, earth/herbal scent that is actually quite pleasing. I don't suffer from breakouts, but I can say that this product didn't give me any (as some that are supposed to do the opposite can do, from what I've heard) and it left my skin feeling very fresh and clean. Its gluten-and-paraben-free formula is a winner in my books --or should I say, skincare routine. There is a permanent place for this product on my counter. -
DAP Eclipse® Rapid Wall Repair Patch

So this was exciting to try. At first glance, it's foolproof. OK, it mostly is. But there are a lot of cons that come up during the entire experience: 1. Cost-prohibitive 2. You can still see the outline of the patch 3. The environmental impact can be too high to ignore. This product is pretty wasteful 4. You guys, it may not "break", but it certainly gives... and it's weird to not have a solid wall all the way through. Even if it's 5x stronger than regular drywall... the fact that it gives... makes me question if the adhesive and or the patch itself will truly last. Plus, if the paint is chipped/scraped off... you get to see the hole that is hiding behind a bit of clear plastic. This product is a miss for my family. -

Take this review with an awesome grain of kinetic sand. This is the most amazing play sand my kid and I have ever touched. It's soft, moldable, and smells wonderful. The colours are vibrant and when you mix them up, you get the most beautiful, wild colour mix ever. I was worried that mixing them up would cause the scents to be odd and overpowering, but this didn't happen at all.
I always wondered if the kinetic sand hype was just hype... but it more than lives up to any expectations I had.

This product is excellent for hydrating your skin. It has a pleasant smell, applies smoothly and absorbs quickly (for the most part --if you use the full dropper it mentions, there's a slight stickiness) with the right amount tailored for your skin.
In terms of evening skin-tone however, I found it less effective in that area. I've been using it for four-five days now, and find no noticeable difference.

Breyers Canadian Desserts Blueberry Grunt

OK, this is a fun flavour... but the ice cream is a bit watery (especially compared with Breyer's amazzzzzzing classic vanilla). The bits of grunt are yummy, but the blueberry tastes slightly... artificial. If you're not looking for the solid depth and creamy scrumptiousness of the classic vanilla... this flavour will do as a fun little treat. I'm torn as to whether I would buy it again or not. -
Breyers Creamery Style Natural Vanilla Frozen Dessert
This is such a creamy vanilla ice cream with just a perfect, classic flavour. You can't say anything else about vanilla ice cream, really... except that this is good ol' reliable, and not at all boring.

Colgate Total Clean Mint Toothpaste

This toothpaste's minty taste is very subtle, which I can only hope means it's more "natural", but boy does it froth up!! I was literally foaming at the mouth, but just went for it. My mouth does feel clean afterwards... is it due to my brushing skills, the toothpaste, or a bit of both? I'd have to say both.
If anything, I'm not quite sure it needs to be so frothy... so maybe tone down on that ingredient a bit in future formulas.

Colgate Total Daily Repair Fresh Mint Fluoride Mouthwash 250ml
This mouthwash seems to feel and taste like any standard mouthwash which is great. The bonus is that it comes with a cup-shaped cap... this is amazing, and I love that attention to design.
