Bumble & Bumble Surf Spray
I have seen people have incredible results with this product, but not me unfortunately. Unless I use half bottle the results only last for an hour or so. For such an expensive product I really hoped for better.

Kirkland Bottled Water
I have tried a Tonne of different bottles waters and bathing beats this. I buy it every time I go to Costco. You can't beat the price and the flavour is perfect for water. No aftertaste like so many other brands.

DEEP RELIEF Ice Cold Pain Relief Gel
This is perfect for muscle aches. I can't use the heat ones as my skin is to dry but this penetrates deep to the pain without hurting. My husband and I each have a tub of it on our bedside tables for nights we need it, and the tubs last forever.

Love this hummus. I haven't even tried the other flavours because this one I so good. Make sure you spread out the garlic or you'll just end up with a pile of really garlic stuff but still good. I always eat it with nan or peppers but I will soon be trying it on a wrap. -

When I first heard about this product I have to admit I had to google what it was even for! As someone with EXTREMELY dry skin, I often don't bother to wash my face because of no matter the cleanser it always just seemed to get dryer and dryer.
When I got my free product in the mail I tried it out right away. The first thing I noticed was that it felt ad looked like water but it got an absurd amount of dirt off my face, probably because I don't normally wash it. It did leave a sort of residue on my skin, but it was hardly noticeable and nothing that bothered me.I for once did not need to use a heavy moisturiser on my face after washing it.
I continued to use this every morning and night for the past week. I can now say that I have noticed my skin is much less dry than t was before. I no longer have flaky skin on my forehead.
I also tried it as a makeup remover and it removed everything with little to no effort. No racoon eyes, Yay! I am unsure of the price, it seems high but I will most likely buy again. The bottle is large so hopefully will last for a while before I need to repurchase.

With my older two boys, I was a dedicated H brand user. I liked the way they fit, they were cost-effective and I could buy them anywhere. I had never even heard of The Honest Company. When I did hear about them I had no kids in diapers. Figures that would happen because I loved the pictures. They were adorable. The idea of them on a cute little baby bum was so perfect that I knew I had to try them when HD was born.
There is no store that carries these closer than two hours away from me so really my only option was the website. For the most part it is user-friendly. I did get "stuck " in a total about how to use the site that I wasn't fond of but that is more to my personal preference to figure things out for myself. I like that I can substitute packs of diapers in different sizes so if we are close to moving up a size but not quite there yet you can change them. However, you can not choose the same print more than once, and you cannot substitute the big wipes pack for smaller travel sized packs. Although, they only hold 10 wipes anyways and on a bad day you would probably need to carry a bunch of them.
I ordered my bundle on Friday, by Tuesday morning they were on my doorstep. After everything was said and done it came to about $140 CDN, which is about $20 more than if I purchased my old H brand locally, or about $40 more if I make the 2-hour drive to buy the same H brand at Costco. All in all, I am okay with the price, and having them at my door in 2 business days I really can't beat that.
The box is really pretty, like really pretty. Not that it makes a difference with literally anything, but it was the first thing I noticed. The diapers are too, the examples you see online do no justice to the awesome designs that are on these diapers.
When I put them on him I immediately noticed how well they fit. I was actually blown away by the comparison of the other brand to this. They fit perfectly. When wearing just an onsie there is no diaper showing, he literally could be wearing underwear instead. That is how well they fit. The diaper isn't spilling out of his clothes. That does not compromise the absorbency at all. We have had less "blowouts" and leaks with these than ever before.
The wipes, however, are not my favourite. They do not come out one-at-a-time like they should. It is almost like they are not folded properly as they come out in bunches, which is unfortunate. I would chalk it up to a bad batch but it has been a problem through more than one bundle.
Notes:
The website boasts free shipping, but unless you live in a designated area you don't qualify. I was dinged with both shipping and an international surcharge.
These diapers fit the same from beginning to the end of their weight range, amazing.
Wish List:
The wipes to come one-at-a-time instead of in large bunches.
The travel packs to have more wipes in them.
Love It:
Shipping was fast.
The prints are amazing.
They fit incredible.
As you can see my loves far outweighs the wishes, I will continue to purchase these diapers for as long as necessary. I will wait to see what their training, sleep, and swimming diapers are like as I have no need for them at this time but I have high hopes as the diapers have left me nothing to but pleased.

I must admit I was sceptical of this product at first. Cleaning windows with just water, and without leaving streaks?! It sounded too good to be true, But when I first tried it I was blown away. With just a circular motion and little to no effort my window was sparkling, from the inside at least. When I used it on my bathroom mirror I had to deal with toothpaste and everything from my two little boys. Surprise it cleaned that like it was nothing!. I have purchased a second one just for the bathroom. -

I was really excited about this product when I saw it. I frequently purchase other things from their bake at home line and I have never been disappointed. The only thing I liked about them was the fact that they came in their own baking dish. One less dish for me, something that is always appreciated. I baked them according to directions and I was left with, small. salty, mildly garlicky lumps of dough. Will NOT be buying this product again. -
