When you have a house full of kids... this is the conditioner for you.
This is a great conditioner; very moisturizing... rinses well. The pricepoint is outstanding... and the size of the bottle is terrific. This lasts forever.
I had a few sad episodes where my kids used my $30 salon shampoo and conditioner as bubblebath that led me to try this brand. Tresemme is terrific. It works and it's inexpensive enough that I don't feel sad when my kids pour it down the drain.

Thanks Mabel's Labels for making Back to School just a little bit easier. I absolutely love these! My kids are having a hoot sticking them on everything. With 6 kids, it's difficult keeping track of all their gear. I tend to do a weekly or bi-weekly peruse of the Lost and Found Bin for this reason. I especially love the shoe stickers!
Will definitely repurchase!

Damn! This stuff is so good that it should be illegal.
I have been buying Nutella for many years but the only thing I ever put it on is a spoon that goes into my mouth. I question the 'nutritious' claims the company makes, as Nutella is essentially chocolate and sugar. I don't feed it to my children for that reason.
But holy maude is Nutella ever delicious and addictive.

Dove Advanced Care Go Fresh Cool Essentials Antiperspirant Stick
This is one of my 'go to' antiperspirants. Dove advanced care Go Fresh Cucumber smells amazing, and works great... even on the hottest of summer days. I love the scent... very light and fresh.

I am a huge fan of Pai’s Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil. I think it’s a great product, at a great price point. The only thing I don’t love about the Rosehip oil is the packaging (clear glass – awkward pipette). I was very excited to try Pai Rosehip BioRegenerate Rapid Radiance Mask, so I ordered a wee sample from @clementinefields (much love for this Canadian, natural beauty company!) Instructions say that this mask is to be applied generously and left for 8-10 minutes. I think I may have left it on a bit longer than 10 minutes because I was immersed in this week’s episode of #outlander. It’s a beautiful, thick texture that feels incredibly moisturizing and soothing to the skin… non drying.
The first thing that struck me about this mask is “Holy Cow… the Tingle!” Don’t get me wrong, I love the tingle, but I wasn’t expecting it with a mask designed to nourish and hydrate. I’m wondering if it was the lactic acid? I barely notice any tingle at all with Sunday Riley Good Genes, but this mask really surprised me with it’s tingling.
My skin felt like a million bucks afterwards, and I would say that the morning after my skin was still nicely plumped and skin texture felt/looked a bit more refined and overall more ‘glowy’. Overall, it’s a lovely mask which would be great to slather on for a pre-event pamper session. Having oily and congested skin, most of the masks I own are the type that draw impurities out of your skin (like May Lindstrom’s the Problem Solver). It was a treat to slap on the buttery loveliness that is Pai Rosehip BioRegenerate Rapid Radiance Mask. I had no issues with irritation, redness, or congestion.
I have enough left in my sample jar for another generous slather of this mask… and I am definitely putting this on my repurchase list.

Lush Eau Roma Water
This product is one of my go-to toners. It’s predominantly rose water and lavender water; very soothing and gentle. Eau Roma Water does not break the bank. The 100ml size is about $11 CND, so I can spritz liberally all day long without feeling like I’m spraying money on my face (I’m talking to YOU, the Jasmine Garden).
I use this toner to prep my skin for moisture (usually a facial oil) and I use this toner as a wee spritz after acid toning. The small size fits nicely into a purse for habitual all-day spritzers like myself. I wish the mist was a little bit finer, like the Caudalie Elixir. I also wish there was a little something more in this product… it just feels a bit too light and not as moisturizing as some of the toners I use.
Overall, I really enjoy this product. It’s hydrating and lightly scented (roses). It’s not the most luxurious and ‘lush’ product, but Eau Roma is a great value and a good little workhorse product to add to any routine.

Andalou Naturals Argan + Omega Natural Glow 3+1
.
I have been testing this out for a couple of weeks now, and I have to say... I'm quite impressed.
It's chock full of argan, sunflower, jojoba, flax and other plant based oils. I would consider this a medium weight oil... a little goes a long way. The smell to me is light and 'forest-y' and dissipates fairly quickly. It does contain fragrant essential oils which may pose a problem to those who are sensitive. I find it absorbs well when applied on freshly spritzed skin. I haven't experienced any reaction or pore clogging. I applied makeup over this oil without a primer and it was lovely.
I've tried Andalou Naturals Argan + Omega Natural Glow 3+1 as a straight up facial oil, as a body oil, to smooth out hair frizzies, and this morning I mixed it with May Lindstrom's the Clean Dirt as my cleansing step with lovely results (does not emulsify and you'll definitely want to remove with a cloth). The 'plant stem cells' stuff seems like hokey pokey jargon to me... but I am no scientist, nor am I a skincare expert. Overall, this is a great little oil blend at a good price point that will not break the bank.

This liquid to foam cleanser works well to remove makeup, SPF, etc. However, it contains fragrant plant oils that I personally find quite irritating to my eyes.
PROS:
It's water soluble and rinses quite well
Great for removing makeup.
not expensive
CONS:
Something in this cleanser is incredibly irritating to my eyes
I do not have typically sensitive skin... so if I'm experiencing sensitivity, then I can only imagine what someone with truly sensitive skin is experiencing
Why on earth would anyone formulate a cleanser that stings the eyes? This is my biggest 'cleanser pet peeve!' As long as you don't find the formula irritating this is a good value cleanser.
