Great set all together! This one does seem to work well for acne. However I like a face wash that typically lathers or scrubs a bit more to help remove pesky makeup residues. But otherwise this one does the job gently and seems to help with acne. I’d like the packaging to be a bit better though. There was a spacer inside the box that made it look bigger than the actual product. The lid is also a little flimsy, but I’m ok with that if it helps save on cost for me when buying the product!

Seems to work just as well as my other salicylic. However this one seems to be a bit more gentle on the skin. It doesn’t have as strong of an alcohol smell, and seems to work equally well. At first I didn’t like how it was clear coloured since I couldn’t see how much I was applying, but colourless is probably more natural so maybe not a bad thing! It is more expensive, but if it’s less harsh on my skin that may be worth it!

I like how I get the benefits of facial sunscreen, but without the risk for acne from oils! I would say the thickness is closer to a sunscreen than a moisturizer, but it seemed to do the job of both. Unlike sunscreen, it seemed to apply smoother and less oily (more like a moisturizer). It may not replace primer, but didn’t seem to pill when I put foundation overtop either. Only thing was it smelled a little weird and note that it applies thick but does blend well.

This product helps balance my moisture and acne routine. I often use strong skin cleaners for my acne, but they’d sometimes leave my skin feeling dry and thin. The niacinamide in this helps rehydrate after using these drying acne products (while still controlling excess oil). I did notice if applied too thick it felt a little sticky, but as long as it works I can put up with that.

I love the perfect balance of floral petals & fruity nectarine notes. It’s not too heavy, so I can wear it confidently without feeling like it’s overwhelming. This is a surprisingly hard find, so I love how I get a good scent without it coming off too strong! I can also be happy to know it’s water based (no alcohols), crueltyfree , & ecofriendly. The roller allows for quick touchups in your purse without overdoing it with a spray. However for the price I wouldve liked more robust packaging, mine got a hairline crack in my pocket. Overall loving the smell and perfect for spring!

FLAWLESS CLEANSE: FACIAL CLEANSER & MASSAGER, ROSE GOLD
I agree that my face felt refreshed afterwards, but personally wouldn’t have it take up my counter space. It would be nice if it could be stored vertically to take up less space. The vibration settings were good except for the roller one, which I... +
I agree that my face felt refreshed afterwards, but personally wouldn’t have it take up my counter space. It would be nice if it could be stored vertically to take up less space. The vibration settings were good except for the roller one, which I could barely feel. I would have liked that one to have bigger rollers so it would actually massage my face. I also love how it’s 100% waterproof, so you can keep it in your shower. May not be the intended use, but I would say that this works well for headaches where you can massage your temples!

Got this free product in time for some window & reno cleanup! I like how #ampsealants uses modified polymer instead of silicone, which will really help with mould resistance on my windows and high humidity areas. I found this product applied really well & seems to be holding up in more difficult areas of our house. We have a lot of humidity and needed something that works well for wet areas. It applied tacky quickly, but curing took longer than advertised.

Adhered well to skin, but wish they had size variations so I could choose small ones when I want it less noticeable. It was gentle on the skin (compared to other brands where I was left with a mark). However, I also found that this made it slightly less effective at removing the entire zit.

PADERNO Classic Non-Stick Stock Pot, 10-qt

Good size stock pot, definitely wider than my previous one! I like how the handles & lid don't get hot to touch. The lid also has an escape steam hole so that it doesn't overflow. It is nice how it doesn't stick, and is induction safe. It has a high quality look & feel to it. Only item missing compared to my dutch oven is that it is not oven safe. -
