I received Dumb Ways to Die 2 for free through Butterly. I originally bought it for the younger kids, but it ended up being a bit more complex than expected, so the older kids played along with them. The instructions were a little confusing at first, but my oldest figured it out quickly and helped everyone get going. They all had fun trying to keep their beans alive. -

I received this faucet at no cost through Butterly in exchange for my honest review. I absolutely love it. The gold finish is stunning in person and completely upgraded my bathroom. I was actually inspired to swap out the tile around it because it just looked too good sitting next to the old tile. My husband said the installation was straightforward, which is always a bonus. I would absolutely recommend this faucet to anyone looking to upgrade their bathroom with an elegant, durable option. -

Thought I was buying a fan for me… turns out I bought my kid a personal wind tunnel.
She’s got her shades on, feet up, living her spa day fantasy in the backyard — while I’m sweating and asking if she’s seen it.
The NOMA Oscillating Tower Fan was mine… for maybe 12 minutes.
✅ 12 fan speeds
✅ 3 breezy wind modes
✅ Built-in humidifier
✅ Remote control (she’s hiding it)
❌ No child-proofing for dramatic tweens
Highly recommend… just maybe buy two.

Thanks Blue Lizard! The Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 Stick goes on smoothly without tugging, doesn’t leave a greasy residue, and most importantly — no white cast! I love that it’s fragrance-free and didn't irritate my skin. I used it while floating in the pool and my skin stayed fully protected. The stick format is super convenient for touch-ups on the go. Would 100% recommend for sensitive skin or anyone who hates the typical chalky feel of mineral sunscreens.

As a cat mom to six (yes, SIX!) furballs, litter box drama is just a part of my life. But when my cats decided to turn me into a K9 Kitty Poop Sleuth 🕵️♀️ last week, I knew something had to change. After days of trying to figure out who was using the floor beside the litter box 😅), I decided to try a new brand, ARM & HAMMER™ HardBall™ Clumping Litter! 🐾✨ So far, so good.

Tried the OGX Bond Repair 3-in-1 Spray and it was good! My hair is fine, so time will tell if it ends up weighing it down, but so far, so good. It’s lightweight and doesn’t leave my strands feeling greasy or heavy, which is a big plus for fine hair. I’ve been using it as a leave-in conditioner, detangler, and heat protectant, and it works well in all those areas.
My hair feels softer, smoother, and a bit more hydrated—plus, I’ve noticed a little more bounce. The scent is fresh but not overpowering, which I love. And honestly, who can beat the price for something that multitasks like this?
Definitely worth a try if you're looking to hydrate and protect without the weight!

Everist Waterless Haircare: A Game-Changer for Fine Hair
As someone who values both sustainability and hair health, I was excited to try out Everist’s new waterless products, a Canadian brand founded by two women with a passion for eco-friendly living. Let me just say, these products did not disappoint!
The first thing that impressed me was how eco-conscious these products are. Everist’s waterless shampoo and conditioner come in small, compact tins that are equivalent to 10 washes. Not only are you getting great value for money, but you’re also reducing waste—no more giant plastic bottles cluttering up your bathroom. It’s the perfect solution for anyone looking to minimize their environmental footprint while still maintaining high-quality haircare.
When it comes to fine hair, I was initially skeptical about whether these products would work. Unlike most traditional shampoos, Everist doesn’t foam up, and my hair didn’t feel as silky right after the wash. But, as I soon realized, this was actually a positive. Everist’s products are free of sulphates, so they don’t strip your hair or scalp of essential moisture. The results? My hair felt light, soft, and not at all weighed down, even after blow-drying. It was a welcomed change from the greasy feeling I’ve sometimes gotten from other shampoos.
I also have to mention the scent—Peppermint and Bergamot! As a fan of essential oils, I loved the refreshing, energizing fragrance that lingered subtly throughout the day. It’s the perfect way to start your morning!
Another bonus? The packaging. I love how these compact tins are not only aesthetically pleasing but also travel-friendly. Whether I’m heading to the gym or taking a weekend getaway, it’s so easy to toss these in my bag without worrying about spills or bulky plastic bottles.
Overall, I’m super impressed with Everist. Their clean, non-toxic ingredients work wonders for my fine hair, keeping it healthy, hydrated, and protected. And with the added benefit of sustainability, it’s a win-win for both my hair and the planet. If you’re looking for a haircare brand that truly cares about both your hair and the environment, I highly recommend giving Everist a try!

My hubby and I love a good vacation, but his ginger skin and all that sunscreen don’t always get along. Enter PanOxyl Acne Spray—a true vacation hero. This stuff worked wonders on his body acne, preventing it from ever appearing.
The formula absorbs quickly (we’re talking no greasy, shiny mess here), and applying it is so easy that even my hubby, who can can't put on his own sunscreen, can handle it. All in all, PanOxyl Acne Spray is a game-changer for vacationers dealing with body acne. Now my hubby’s acne-free and sunburn-free (well, mostly)—and I’m just over here wondering why we didn’t find this sooner!
