I’ve used tea tree oil from a few different brands over the years, and Thursday Plantation has been one of the best. The oil smells fresh and strong, which gives me confidence that it’s a quality product. I use it for occasional blemishes, on bug bites, and sometimes diluted in a carrier oil for various skin concerns.
A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts quite a while. I also appreciate that it’s 100% pure tea tree oil with no unnecessary ingredients added.
The only thing to keep in mind is that it’s very concentrated, so it’s important to use it properly and dilute it when needed. Overall, it’s a reliable product that I always like to keep on hand.

Tried the Daiya Individual Margarita Pizza recently and it’s honestly one of the better quick gluten free frozen pizzas I’ve had. The crust gets surprisingly thin and crispy, and the fact that it cooks in about 5 minutes makes it really convenient for busy evenings or quick lunches.
I also liked that it’s only 330 calories for the whole pizza, so it feels “lighter”. The new dairy free cheese made with the Daiya Oat Cream™ blend has a much creamier texture and milder flavour than older dairy free cheeses I’ve tried.
Big plus that it’s both dairy free and gluten free without completely sacrificing texture.
My only real criticism is that I wish there was a bit more cheese on it. The flavour is good, but the topping feels a little sparse in places. Overall though, definitely a solid freezer staple if you want something fast, crispy, and plant-based.

I tried the Ferrero Rocher assorted hazelnut chocolate squares this weekend and honestly really liked them. The texture is probably my favourite part, the creamy chocolate with a bit of crunch makes them hard to stop eating. I liked having different flavours to try too. They’re really good with a cup of tea when you want a small treat at the end of the day. -

I’ve been using AOR Urolithin A+ for a few weeks now and overall I’ve had a fairly positive experience with it. I was mainly looking for something to support energy and healthy aging, and while I wouldn’t call it a dramatic change, I do feel a bit more steady energy wise during the day. I also appreciate that the capsules are easy to take and didn’t upset my stomach, which can be an issue for me with some supplements.
It is definitely on the pricier side, so I’m still deciding whether it will become a long term staple for me, but so far I’ve been happy enough with the results to keep using it. Overall, it feels like a solid quality product from AOR.

I’ve been using AOR Curcumin Active for a while now and overall I’ve had a positive experience. The capsules are easy to take, and I appreciate that the formula is designed for enhanced absorption. I started taking it to support joint comfort and general inflammation, and I’ve noticed a subtle but steady improvement.
The only downside for me has been mild heartburn on a few occasions, especially if I take it on an empty stomach. Taking it with food seems to help.
Overall, I think it’s a high-quality curcumin supplement and would recommend it, particularly if you tolerate turmeric-based products well.

I really love this body cream. It’s super rich and creamy but somehow still sinks in nicely without feeling greasy or heavy. My skin feels soft, smooth, and comfortable for hours after I use it, especially when it’s dry or cold out.
The shea butter is clearly doing its job, it really helps with dryness, and the scent is light and clean, not overpowering at all. A little goes a long way too and it smells amazing.
This has become a go-to for me when my skin needs extra moisture, and I’d definitely repurchase it.

PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches worked surprisingly well for me. They stay put through the night, pull out a lot more gunk than I expected, and noticeably calm inflammation by morning. I love that they’re thin enough to sleep comfortably with and don’t irritate my skin. The only slight downside is that very deep pimples sometimes need two nights to fully flatten — but honestly, for how fast they work overall, that’s a tiny trade-off. Highly recommend for quick, gentle overnight results.

After my little one was born, I broke out worse than I did as a teenager. My skin felt greasy and bumpy, and nothing I tried was helping. I picked up PanOxyl kind of as a last resort, and honestly, I’m so glad I did. It stings a little at first, but within a week my skin started calming down and the painful breakouts finally started to clear. It’s strong, so I only use it once a day, but it actually makes me feel clean and like I’m doing something that works. Postpartum skin is no joke, but this has been a lifesaver for me.
