I usually like NOMA lights quite a lot, but this string is, by far, the most beautiful set of Christmas lights I have ever owned. They do so much honor to having “fairy” in their name because the ambiance they create so beautiful and cozy, it is almost magical. The size is perfect for an indoor window, for example, or if you would like to use them in your balcony or deck, you can attach up to 3 sets together and have a larger area showered by this soft and lovely light.
I was very pleasantly surprised when I opened the box, took them out and realized that the bulbs are made of plastic, which makes the entire string extremely light and easy to handle, which means you can manipulate the set without the fear of breaking the bulbs.
Finally, I must say that I loved the fact that each bulb comes with its own hook built into it, which makes the installation even easier and quicker! This string is just perfect for me.

For a family who cooks all their meals at home, having high quality cookware to rely on is the key to a successful and delicious meal.
There are so many interesting things about these pots and pans that I don’t even know where to star!
So, here’s some technical info:
- They are made with 5 layers, which make them amazing for an even heat distribution.
- 18/10 premium stainless steel – this is the GOOD stuff ;)
- Copper core – for cooking precision
- Suitable for use on all cooktops – and oven safe
- NOT dishwasher safe (because of the copper) :/
The set includes:
- 1.6 L saucepan
- 2 L saucepan
- 3.2 L Saucepan
- 5.4 L Dutch Oven
- 24 cm Sauté Pan
- 2.7 L Steamer
- And 6 Lids
The saucepans and pan are a little bit heavier than other brands I have used in the past, for obvious reasons (5-ply more reasons). Once you start cooking with them, you can feel how sturdy and well-built they are, and that’s when you finally understand why they have the “Lifetime warranty” stamp in the box.
All my pots and pan heat up very quickly and evenly. When I was stir-frying, I was able to hear and see the sizzling around the pan distributing evenly on my electric stove; and that uniformity of the heat happened with all the pieces of this set. This is definitely one of those sets that are perfect for a cook warrior with clad cookware experience, who likes to have everything under control while cooking. Keep in mind that cooking with clad pans instead of Teflon or other non-stick pans is very different, so you may have to adapt to them.

As a mango fanatic, I was more than excited to try the Bai’s mango flavour, and I had exactly what I was expecting: deliciousness in a bottle.
This is not a regular juice, this is a really enjoyable beverage with a very subtle mango flavour, which is light and refreshing. This infusion is perfect to satisfy a craving, or to cool off on a hot day, without the guilt of consuming more sugar than necessary, because it only has one gram of sugar. This infusion is so good, that you would love to share it, BUT you will probably drink it all without even noticing it. If you’re a nutritional fact label reader like me, you will be impressed by this product.

Nothing makes me as happy as discovering a face hair remover product that not only does its job well, but also keeps my skin smooth. First of all, the touch-free and mess-free applicator is a genius idea; it makes the process so easy and fast, that they got me with that!
5 minutes was more than enough to remove all my thin hair, and even some thicker ones. Some others may require more time, but from past experience with Nair products I know I can't exceed that time, because my skin is too sensitive and tends to get burned, so I didn’t want to spoil my experience.
The package says that it has a formula for sensitive skin, but within 5 minutes I could feel that tingling sensation that indicates that I should remove the product from my skin. I would recommend that it be used with the same precautions as other face hair remover products, just in case. After gently wipping it off and rinsing the excess, my face felt very soft and smooth. I recommend to apply a sensitive moisturizer face cream to finish up and rock the summer!

Believe me when I say, this is not a regular chocolate ice cream flavour. This is a gem for all chocolate lovers. It’s a super-rich and velvety ice cream that you can compare easily with those luxury —and very expensive— imported brands, but made with 100% Canadian dairy, which means it is much-much better if you ask me. Its flavour is a blend of Madagascar vanilla and dark chocolate, which makes it not overly sweet, but instead so delicious and with a fantastic dark chocolate flavour.

Let’s be honest, pubic hair is something we all have, yet so many of us struggle with it. And the problem is not that we have it, the problem, oftentimes, is finding the right way of taking care of it without hurting our skin in the attempt. So, if everybody is suffering from it, why not talk about it, right?
The Gillette Venus for Pubic Hair & Skin 3-up razor’s technology is A-MAI-ZING!! It’s designed to work in a way that protects the skin from the pubic area and prevents it from irritating. This is not a regular razor, on the back of the blades I found a trimmer, which helped me with tricky areas; moreover, it has this bar between the blades that allows them to cut hair while barely touching the skin. The handle has a nice grip for ergonomic use, which was a great bonus worth mentioning.
Shaving is, and always should be your choice, and if you do it, it’s important to think about the health of your skin first!

After struggling with so many stigmas and misconceptions that it was wrong to talk about pubic hair and what you do with it, this campaign has made me feel freer than ever, and in more ways than one. It doesn’t matter what’s your style, these are a must have!
The Gillette Venus 2–in–1 Cleanser + Shave gel for Pubic Hair & Skin, works wonderfully. The idea of getting used to bumps, ingrown hairs, razor burns, cuts or that horrible itchiness during “shaving season” has finally ended. This product is designed to give you the most amazing results and, that is probably why, this has been my smoothest shave of all times. It provides a nice layer of protection during the shave, and it also can be used between shavings as a cleanser because it is 100% soap-free and it helps maintaining pH balance. Ohh… and this has been the first time my skin is moisturized right after shaving, which I absolutely love!

I have been using it every day and the results have been much better than I expected. This dry spray is so good, it helps me stay dry the entire day: I only need to apply it once and gives me the extra boost of freshness I need with its light and subtle floral scent. No matter if it’s the beginning of the day, late at night after working for hours, or during my daily exercise routine, I can still feel my armpits clean, and it’s all thanks to this Degree Advanced 72h Nonstop MotionSense Dry Spray. -

After trying so many antiperspirants with all kind of textures, a couple of years ago I found the Degree MotionSense stick and I thought it was perfect for me, until now. This Degree Advance 72H Nonstop MotionSense spray has all the best features of the stick bar, but also dries in seconds... literally: seconds, and that’s my kind of product! I’m always running during the day and every second counts. This Degree antiperspirant keeps me dry longer than any other brand and it also helps me control my PH throughout the day. Another characteristic that I enjoy quite a lot, is that it doesn’t leave any residue, so I can be worry-free especially when I'm at the gym. I got this product for free from @chickadvisor, @thisisbutterly and @degree in exchange for my honest review. Thank you! -

It's been a while since I last tried deodorants with so many “good no-no's" (NO aluminum, NO parabens, NO baking soda). I had stopped using this type of deodorant for various reasons: their texture was usually unpleasant, they generally left stains on my clothing, they didn’t last long… however it looks like “hello” knows what it is doing, and that is a welcomed surprise.
Its sage and eucalyptus scent is enjoyable, delicate and non-invasive, rendering my underarms with this botanical aroma that I love. The hello naturally friendly™ deodorant has upheld its claims, in my opinion. The bar is quite solid, which made a huge difference for me, since previous bars I had tried were so soft, they would start dissolving after a few times using them. After applying this deodorant, my armpit skin feels quite comfortable, and even though this is not an antiperspirant, it still manages to make me feel clean and fragrant all day long. This bar might not stop you from sweating, but it does stop your sweat from smelling. By the end of my day, I was still getting whiffs of the eucalyptus scent and no residue of the bar on my skin, and that’s enough to make me happy.
