I signed up for a Tea of the Month Club. The option I selected includes 3 different flavours of teas each month. Each tea sample is enough for one serving (1 large pot of tea), and includes ingredient and serving information. This is a great gift idea. It is a fun way to sample new teas and I look forward to getting my samples each month.
Every sample has been drinkable, although I do like some more than others. If you find a tea you enjoy, you can order more. I didn't like rooibos tea previously, but I found a great almond flavoured one that I would buy again.

I don't usually use clarifying shampoos, but I've been ramping up the number of products I use and needed something to effectively clean the gunk out of my hair. This does the job. The bonus is the amazing eucalyptus smell and the long-lasting scalp tingles.
I only use this every other shampoo at the most because I have a dry scalp, but so far I have not experienced any irritation.
This came in a kit with a spray for hair to reduce odour that smells great, and a scalp scrub. The scrub takes off dry skin. I've used it on my husband's scalp and could see the difference because he has less hair than I do.

I purchased one to try it because my Costco sells it in "bulk" and it's such a great value. This formula is a winner. It's effective at keeping stink under control, but it's also gentle, creamy and easy to apply and you get a good amount for the price.
My only fault with this is the smell. I wish Costco sold the unscented version because I don't need my pits to smell like cucumber! Fortunately, the smell is not so overpowering after application that it clashes with other fragrances.

This is a great hand cream for the money. It works really well on any dry skin. I love using it on my feet, elbows and knees as it keeps rough dry skin at bay. I've even used this on my legs and arms when they are really dry.
The only con is the scent. I prefer the unscented version at night as the smell of the scented version is a bit too much when I'm trying to sleep.

This is a great moisturizer for the summer months.
It has a light citrus fragrance that is one of my all-time favourite scents. The lotion sinks in to your skin easily and leaves a pleasant sheen (not shine, not glitter) on the skin that fades depending on how dry your skin is.
It's amazingly effective considering how lightweight it is.
It's definitely not cheap, but can often be found on sale or as part of kits, etc.
The only other con is that it can be a bit irritating on sensitive skin. I sometimes find this happens on my shins after I shave.

My usual lotion was not available, so I decided to try this one. The price was very good for the amount you get.
This product is supposed to help with itching, and it definitely works for me. I love that it's unscented and loaded with ceramides. It is a heavier formula, but it doesn't leave my skin sticky like some brands.
It probably won't replace my favourite, but it's definitely up there.

Cetaphil is a great face cleanser in the morning, or when you don't have to remove makeup. It's not the best at removing makeup like mascara, mineral sunscreens or all-day foundations, etc.
It's perfect for sensitive and/or dry skin as it's not irritating and rinses off easily. You can use it on your face and body so it's handy to keep in the shower. The pump makes it easy to use.

I purchased this because it was on sale and I thought it might be a less expensive alternative to my usual brand.
I don't like the taste or texture of this paste. It is less minty than my preferred brand, so I don't get as "fresh" a feeling from it. This wouldn't be a deal breaker, but overall it doesn't wow me enough to change brands.
It does work for sensitive teeth, not sure it's doing anything for my gums??

Nivea Anti-Perspirant Pure & Sensitive
This is ok if you need minimal smell control. I found the formula is very nice, the product is comfortable going on, and I love that it is unscented, but it just doesn't hold up as well as other deodorants I use.
