The cool, smooth feeling of applying this deodorant is fantastic. It isn't a powder, it's not quite a gel, but it goes on with such ease and leaves no residue whatsoever! No need to wait for it to dry before putting a shirt on!
It's made with aloe vera, so your pits will thank you. It's great to smell good and take care of your skin at the same time! Plus, that nice smelling scent? It's not made with artificial fragrance! It'll stay with you as long as you need it to. I drove nearly two hours to a large city, took public transit for another hour, walked around, attended a hockey game, did it all again, and I was still smelling fresh by the time I got home!
Bonus? This is a company that likes to help where they can. The packaging is made from 100% recycled plastic, and they also apparently give 10% of their proceeds to charity.
This is a product and company I could get behind!

The Clean Reserve water based perfume is so easy to use. The packaging is small, simple, yet still has an attractive design. It's the perfect size to slide into your clutch if going out for the night so you can touch up if you need to.
It's a roller style, but the ball moves around easily, guaranteeing you a smooth, even application.
The scent is fairly gentle and has a floral yet fruity scent. It's definitely noticeable, but certainly not overpowering.
If you want to continue smelling it throughout the day, you may need to reapply a bit a few hours later, but you really don't need very much to have the desired effect!
With how easy it is to apply, carry around, and the nice scent, I'd purchase this in the future!

Disclosure: I received this product for free to try in return for my honest opinion. I also received this in March, and as a Canadian, I admit we don't get much sun this time of year! So admittedly, my review can't say much against the actual effectiveness of keeping my very pale skin from looking like a lobster, but I can fill you in on everything else! Truthfully, from what I'm seeing of the package, I'm trusting it'll keep my Casper colouring from changing to "Venetian Red"!
First off, there's practically no scent, so that's nice. I want it to be practical without smelling fancy or even like, well, like sunscreen sometimes does. That's a bonus! It also doesn't leave an oily residue after!
Next up: They make their product with safer ingredients! It's mineral based instead of chemical, and contains no oxybenzone and no octinoxate - two chemicals thought to be contributing to the destruction of the reefs! I LOVE companies that try to do their part to help the environment! To make it even that much better, this all means that this sunscreen is not only going to work for me, but my entire family! It's safe to use on children 6 months and up. That's fabulous! My youngest is just over a year, so I'm thrilled I only need to bring ONE sunscreen instead of two. This is a huge plus in my books and makes me exceptionally happy.
Seriously, the things you get excited about when you're a parent.
Lastly: The packaging. It's somewhat simple, explains right on the front what it protects from and the SPF, of course, as well as the cool looking lizard on the side! It's just enough detail to bring your attention to it without being over the top.
Overall: 10/10 recommend this! I'll be able to recommend it even more thoroughly when the sun is hot enough to bake my cookies inside my car!

Trojan Duet 2-in-1 Vibrating Massager + Ring
I first tried the Trojan massager solo, and I was very impressed! It doesn't like it at first, but there's quite a few settings on it that pack a punch! I've tried toys before and they've been okay, but this is probably my new favourite!... +
I first tried the Trojan massager solo, and I was very impressed! It doesn't like it at first, but there's quite a few settings on it that pack a punch! I've tried toys before and they've been okay, but this is probably my new favourite! Regretfully, it isn't easy to make me finish (solo or with my partner), but this definitely helps!
The only reason I didn't give it full stars is because of the other uses it offers. I used it on my partner in various ways that they suggest with the instructions that come in the package, but he didn't find it made all that much of a difference. There were a couple of times it felt good, but nothing "mind blowing." I was pretty disappointed on his behalf, since I really hoped it would feel great for him, too, since the massager felt good for me! Alas, for the most part, it will remain a pleasure tool just for me, though I'll still give it a go on him sometimes to see if we can find a way for him to enjoy it, too!

We've put lights on our roof before, but we had to manually put clips up to mount the strings, and they were ALWAYS falling off. These have clips built in to the lights, so it is SO easy to mount them without worrying about dropping the clips all the time!
Since we were short a string (our roof is long, and our string was only about 10ft), we wanted to take a photo to show how they looked on our tree in our garden. Would definitely buy again and recommend!

I am a parent of a 6 year old and a 6 month old, and they don't always make life easy! By the time I get them settled in for bed, I'm sometimes exhausted and don't have the energy to have a shower before I sleep. The next morning, I hit the ground running to get my oldest to school, so I don't always have time then, either! I put my hair up in ponytails to hide my shameful hair sometimes, but it doesn't always cut it! That's why I was excited to give my free sample from Butterfly of Batiste Overnight Deep Cleanse Dry Shampoo a shot. Using it is easy! Before you go to bed, you simply spray it into your hair thoroughly (30cm away), making sure to get it in your roots as well. When finished, massage it all in with your hands, then go to bed! The next morning, brush and style your hair like usual, then go about your day!
My hair was not looking its finest when I tried this product out for the first time. When I finished putting it in, it already looked better. By the time morning came, it was definitely less oily looking, I gave it a quick brush and off I went! It's a great product I plan on keeping on hand for those days I need to look at least a little put together, but am honestly not quite all there!
Thanks, @batistecanada for making me look like I can adult properly and have my life in order - at least for the most part!

I used this product for the first time today, and the timing was perfect! I received it in the mail, and when I brought it in, I was ironically about to go for a shower. As I got the water running, my mom called and asked if I wanted to go out with her for dinner. She was only five minutes away! So, I turned off the water, ran to grab my package to get the cleansing foam, and gave it a go!
My hair went from slightly oily (yuck!) to looking refreshed and clean! It dried within a minute (actually less than that for me, personally!) and is definitely PERFECT for when you're rushing out the door and need to look a bit more "together"! That, or are just too unmotivated to have a shower before running an errand in your pajamas! (I'm a parent to a young toddler, I won't lie - I've had a couple of those days!)
I definitely suggest this product!

We like Huggies Little Snugglers. My husband went to buy diapers one morning and bought the wrong ones, but we were running low so just decided to try them out. Right away we were noticing that after just 2 hours, our son's outfit started getting wet from the diaper soaking through (unlike the supposed 12 hour protection!). Most diapers can go 3-4 hours at least before getting full, and still not soak through! You can forget about putting these on your child if they sleep through the night, the crib will be soaked. I found out the same time these were purchased that many others seemed to have the same issue. Best to get a different style of Huggies diapers, or a different brand! -

Our 11 month old LOVES these. He's been eating them since he was about 6 months. We keep them in our diaper bag at all times, so if we're eating and he gets upset he isn't eating too (example if he isn't due for a feeding yet), we'll give him some of these and he'll be as content as can be! It's a great way to help your children learn coordination by picking the Puffs up and putting them in their mouth. They also dissolve so if they don't have many teeth, they're still good for them to munch on! They're very reasonably priced and I highly recommend them. -
