We use this cream for everything in our house: husband has rough hands from work, dogs have dry paws from walking in the snow, Mama has an itchy belly from a stretching baby bump. I love how it moisturizes and actually makes a difference. Many creams leave your skin soft when you first use them but I find this cream is helping make a difference long term. I also love that it contains vitamin e (great for pregnant ladies). There is virtually no smell which is great for my husband and dogs. It's not fancy department store cream but it definitely does the job and doesn't cost a fortune. -

I am currently 4.5 months pregnant, as per the instructions on the bottle I have been using Bio-Oil 2x a day since the beginning of the third month, and so far I am mark free. I like that this product is light and dries relatively quickly, It is an oil so it does stay on your skin for a little bit. It doesn't however ruin your clothes. The fragrance is not overpowering, which is great to a pregnant nose. The only down side is it's not really moisturizing so I do use it in combination with a vitamin e cream to help with 'itchy bump'. It is a little pricey but if it does as it claims then it's definitely worth it. -

As someone with a serious sweet tooth who works pretty tirelessly to maintain healthy eating habits, and follow a strict meal plan meant for body building, this stuff is a life saver. It comes in a variety of flavours to satisfy a variety of cravings and each one tastes legit. the ingredients in this are amazing and the nutrition value matches that, it is a high protein spread that can be added to smoothies, rice cakes or eaten from a spoon. Like everything moderation is key. It is not the easiest to find, grocery stores do not carry it, but the overall value is pretty reasonable. Make sure to give it a stir before eating. -

I bought this on a whim and am totally hooked. This granola is a great addition to yogurt, or just a little treat by itself. I love the addition of a little bit of chocolate but the overall ingredients are pretty healthy. I do eat this in the morning so my body has the opportunity to burn off the carbs and sugar throughout the day, it keeps me full without consuming too much of it. It is a little tough to find as not all grocery stores carry it, I find mine at Superstore. -

Are Dysons expensive? Yes. Are Dysons worth it? you betcha. Prior to buying my Dyson Animal I went through a cheap vacuum about once a year. We have two large hairy dogs and my house it tile and hardwood, I vacuum often. Other vacuums just couldn't keep up with the dog hair and would always lose suction. I love my dyson because it cleans the house with ease, it is lightweight, it maneuvers like a dream, it is bagless and you only have to rinse the filter once a month, and above all I love the quality associated with the brand. -

I have officially been converted from my mop and bucket, this thing is so easy to use, it gets my floors clean, I don't have to worry about damaging them from excess water, its safe for my dog, and probably much more hygienic than a mop head. The cleaner smells awesome, the floor are spotless, the pads have to be changed around every second room so it takes about 4 to do my house, which isn't the thriftiest but really that's the only major downside. The system itself was very affordable. -

This stuff is seriously liquid magic. I always use this before applying eyeshadow and with it my makeup does not budge. It lasts the entire day from morning til night. You only need a small amount which makes the small bottle last quite a long time. The shade is light enough that it is very easily concealed even under lighter shades of eyeshadow. I will not ever go back to another primer product. It is pricey, but it is definitely worth it. -

For my wedding I wanted to choose a new scent, something that when I wore it, it would remind me of our special day. This Juicy Couture perfume was perfect, the scent is a little sweet/clean definitely not overpowering, which was important given the number of hugs handed out. It lasted the entire day, through an outside ceremony is 40 degree heat, and through a night of dancing. I find it to be very versatile I can wear it to work then to dinner afterwards. I found the price to be pretty average as well as the bottle size. The bottle itself is very unique. -

I use this product once a week and have seen great improvements to my skin. I use this in combination with the tea tree line from Body Shop. This face mask leaves my skin clear and bright, I have combination skin and have noticed much less shine and softer skin, and it has helped to greatly reduce stress related break outs. After removing this mask my skin is left feeling squeaky clean and tingly. The smell may be a little much for some but I have found with use I have gotten used to it. The quality is great, the price is a little higher than drug store brand but you definitely get what you pay for and I love the morals behind the Body Shop. -

I will admit to being a bit of a coffee snot, I hate cheap or weak coffee. We recently discovered this brand while grocery shopping. It was on sale at the time which made us initially buy it, but it has become the only coffee in our house. Kicking Horse offers a variety of flavours at varying strengths, the dark roasts are my favourite but a few of the mediums are strong enough as well. The flavours are bold and are a perfect addition to our mornings; can't start the day without coffee. I do find that one cup is enough to get me through my mornings. I love that you can buy it in whole bean form and grind just what you need, I feel this promotes the flavour as well as helping it last longer. The price is a little steep considering that the bags aren't very large but they do go on sale pretty regularly at our local supermarket so we just stock up when they do. We especially love that it is a Canadian brand. -
