If you're going to try and find a way to include ice cream in your diet, this is the one. Top with some bananas or raspberries or strawberries and you'll meet your vitamin C too then it really does count as a meal ;)

I received the Denim Blue Headturner to Pastelize Blonde Hair for free to review.
I'll preface this by saying my hair is dark blonde/light brown (bronde) and so it is the darkest shade match on the side of the box.
I found the directions to be a little confusing, the paper leaflet only gave about 1/2 of the directions that were on the side of the box, so I found myself referring to both.
Given that this is a 1-3 wash product, I can see the value in having the colour in a spray bottle, there is no mixing, and thus no disposal of extra dye. However, this makes for a messy application, so I recommend standing in the shower. Depending on how long your hair is, make sure you are well covered with a towel or do it in the buff, the dye wipes off your skin easily enough with a damp wash cloth.
My hair is long but thin so I sectioned my hair into 4 ponytails to apply the dye and make sure I had it even throughout. After combing thru the dye I removed each elastic and re-combed my hair before blowdrying.
I couldn't really see the blue colour except for a tiny hint of it so once I finished blowdrying I grabbed a small section of hair and sprayed in more dye and then re-blowdried to see if I could make it stand out more, which to the naked eye I still couldn't see it. However, my camera on my phone was able to pick up the colour so it was there and probably on a nice bright & sunny day I would have seen the difference.
All in all, my hair was just too dark and the application was too messy for me to want to buy this again, but I don't think that makes this a bad product by any means. I would instead if I wanted a dramatic colour go the route of lightening my hair 1st before dyeing.

Aveeno is my go-to brand for eczema flare ups and this balm is no exception.
My hands get extremely dried out to the point of cracking in the winter, so I love how long lasting this balm is. My advice is to start with about half the amount of lotion you would normally use and go from there as its quite thick but still spreads well.
Since this is designed for sensitive skin I also tried it out on my 10 month old's cheeks which have been chapped due to all the drool from teething combined with cold and dry weather. Within 3 days of putting a tiny amount on his cheeks twice a day his skin is back to being soft and healthy looking (and feeling!).
Yet another great product from Aveeno, I highly recommend it.

The texture of this applesauce is creamier/thicker than regular applesauce which make it seem more filling as well. I really liked the flavour but found that I mostly taste banana, I wish the pineapple flavor was stronger to make it taste more like a tropical mix.
Overall, very good and would buy again as its a good alternative to the berry apple sauces I normally buy.

Authentic raspberry flavor! This applesauce has a really fresh and fruity flavor and I love that it has 2 grams of fibre per serving. This is a great snack and I will be buying this again.

Handwashing life safer!
As a new mom of a preemie, I am washing my hands A LOT! I'm convinced if it weren't for this lotion my hands would be cracked and bleeding. I have mild psorisis so love how gentle the formula is and its thick and creamy while absorbing well and I don't feel greasy afterwards.
