Really good hairspray! Holds very well. Usually I use this when trying to keep some frizzy flyaways in my ballerina bun and it keeps them there all day! And I used it when curling my hair and was able to get 3 days out of those curls! Very happy with this hairspray especially because it goes on sale often or they issue coupons. Even better the first time I bought this I had both! Which just makes it very affordable. -
Boots No7 Beautiful Skin overnight revitalizing eye balm

I love this eye cream. I bought it on a whim and I can’t believe how much I love it! It’s caffeinated and I think that probably helps. But I rarely if ever get those dark circles around my eyes! And I have a little baby. I’ll probably keep using it until I upgrade to a more serious anti-aging cream. But I’ll be sticking with boots no7! -

I use essential oils. I believe in the power of aromatherapy. However, this lotion is too much. It’s a very strong smell. More than just lavender too. I was given it as a baby shower gift and I didn’t feel comfortable using it on such a small baby. I finally started to use it when my babe turned one. And the smell lingers in her pjs until they are washed. It is a nice lotion though, it absorbs quickly and isn’t sticky. -
Burt's Bees Baby Bee Shampoo & Wash
This is excellent kids shampoo and body wash. My only complaint is that it doesn’t have a foam pump. I love the smell, and it works well. I wouldn’t say it has conditioning properties though. I do use a leave in conditioner for my 3 year old... +
This is excellent kids shampoo and body wash. My only complaint is that it doesn’t have a foam pump. I love the smell, and it works well. I wouldn’t say it has conditioning properties though. I do use a leave in conditioner for my 3 year old when we use this product. -

I procrastinated buying Moroccan oil for a long time. It’s a little more expensive than the typical hair products I buy and I thought it probably wouldn’t be worth it. I was so wrong! It’s amazing! AND ive had this bottle for a long time. You don’t use a lot and you get really good results! -

This micellAir water doesn’t even remove my cheap mascara. I have liner that stays on too; not the liquid stuff that is supposed to stay on well, but the soft pencil smudges kind. This makes me less confident in its ability to remove make up I can’t see as well. Like foundations and concealers. I always wash my face again, honestly if I could return the product I would. I’ve even considered giving it away. Too bad I loved the idea of not leaving a residue. -
Babyganics Shampoo + Body Wash, Chamomile Verbena

Have you ever gotten a freebie or sample of a product and wished you hadn’t because you now know that all the other products you were using are garbage? That is how I feel about this body wash and shampoo. It’s amazing. The smell. The pump. My daughter's hair is almost conditioned after, but it doesn’t leave her skin feeling oily or anything.
I tried the chamomile verbena, and it smells amazing. The whole next day I just want to hug my littles because they smell so good.

This lotion is nice. It's smooth, light and doesn’t leave a sticky residue. It absorbs quickly and is all around really good. I really like the bottle too. Both my littles have eczema and this lotion hasn't irritated it at all! It didn't clear up any of the eczema, which isn't surprising since it's not specific for eczema but it also didn't cause any irritation.
However, both my littles have really dry skin and we are in the middle of an intense cold snap (like -40) and I'm finding that it doesn’t have enough moisturize. It is a water based lotion and we typically use a petroleum based one, and for us that is a huge difference. I think if we lived somewhere that was warmer, or humid this would be a perfect lotion. I might actually stash it away for summer when the kiddos are in shorts, since it absorbs so quickly it won't end up on my furniture!

These wipes feel fantastic! They have the strength and stretch like fabric does. They are super soft too they really feel like fabric! Not rough after its been wet and dried on the counter kind, the super soft probably won't decompose in the landfill kind. And they don't rip!
Do you remember meconium poops? It’s a recent memory for me. These wipes would be perfect for that. They aren't too wet, or too delicate. I think they would be great for a gift for a first time mom at her baby shower. The size of the page is also nice, 80 wipes per pack.
However, I do have some complaints. I don’t like the top, the seal it does keep in the moisture but it's hard to get into one handed while changing a butt. I also don’t like how the wipes are folded inside the package. They are not "tissue style" so when I pull one out it sticks to the next one and I'm never sure if there is one or 2 in the stack. I often find myself using 2 when I really only wanted 1 and frequently pull out 3. Unfortunately there are enough complaints that I wouldn't buy these as my usual wipes, sorry BabyGanics -- Buuuuut read how I feel about the body wash and shampoo… I'm probably buying that forever.

Thanks to ChickAdvisor I got to try these 3 awesome flavours of PowerBar’s plant protein bars. Thank you ChickAdvisor & PowerBar!! Now, I got it free but I’ll always be honest.
The Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Plant Protein Bar didn’t make it worth it for me. I know they are better calories than a chocolate bar, but they almost double some chocolate bars. I know they aren’t a candy bar and they have protein - which has calories; but I think they kinda fall between to two needs for me. The first being a sweet craving, and the second being a protein bar. They don’t seem to have enough protein to really be a protein substitute for me (maybe because they are vegan), and they are too high in calories to be a nutritious sweet fix. And I found this flavour more dry and less delicious. I felt like it was almost plain peanut butter. Not enjoyable.
