This product smells great and works well. I really love the coconut oil and ylang ylang scent. I have bleached blonde hair, and I did notice that my hair has been softer/smoother since using it. The price point is good, and I can find it at any Walmart. I love that the product has mostly natural ingredients, and is "cruelty free/vegan".
However, even though the product itself claims to be vegan/cruelty free, the parent company is Unilever. If you aren't aware, Unilever is NOT a cruelty free/vegan company. I will not be buying this product again UNLESS Unilever changes their ways.
I received this product for free to test and review.

After using this product for about a month, I did notice that a lot of redness in my skin has calmed down. I don't have overly sensitive skin, but products with strong scents irritate my skin, and I'm happy to say that this product has a very mild scent if at all.
Overall, I'd say this is an average moisturizer. I have quite dry skin, so this didn't do much better for helping with that than the product I usually use. This definitely is great for someone with sensitive skin, but maybe more on the average/combination skin type range.

I bought these brush markers from Walmart to try out and practice lettering/calligraphy along with a pad of marker paper. These are great brush markers for those that are looking to start or practice with. They are a nice and basic range of colours, and being double- ended gives you options for trying out different styles and detail work. They do bleed a little bit if you hold them in one spot for too long, but that holds true for many markers so it’s not really an issue for me. These also can be used to create watercolour work, so it’s like buying 3 things in one which is so great for a newbie like me on a budget. I spent about $12 CAD for these, which is an amazing value as some brush markers can cost around $15-20 per marker! Highly recommend! -

I was given this game as a gift for my Nintendo Switch after trying it out on PC. The controls are easy to figure out and simple. I found that the intro was a bit long and you are unable to skip it, which is a little annoying for someone who wants to just jump to gameplay. This is a great little game if you enjoy figuring things out on your own. There’s a bit of everything - farming, building, mining, and more. I would recommend this for a casual gamer as it can be easily picked back up after a while of not playing. -

I received this product for free, and I was a little skeptical about how well it would actually work. A little goes a long way. I only use one cleansing pad for my whole face (I don't wear a lot of makeup). I have super dry skin that usually feels really tight and uncomfortable if I don't put moisturizer on right away, but this stuff left my skin feeling soft and with no tightness at all. I use it as a cleansing water, and sometimes as a toner after washing my face with my regular cleanser. I'd definitely recommend this for people with dry/sensitive skin like me! I love this product, and there's a lot that comes in the bottle. I'd say it's worth it! -

I got this mascara as a sample from Sephora a while back. I really like this mascara, and it's one of the best that I've ever used. I will definitely be purchasing a full size tube! It does exactly what it says. It gives a natural look, and doesn't get all clumpy and gross. This was the first higher end brand of mascara that I've used, and I'm hooked. -
Maybelline New York Colossal Volum' Express Mascara
This mascara is an average mascara. I've tried better, and I've tried worse. The price is great if you're looking for an affordable mascara, but if you're looking for volume like it says on the tube, I would pass.

Kraft Smooth Peanut Butter
Childhood classic. My mom would always buy this brand of peanut butter when I was growing up. This peanut butter is definitely a staple in my house because it's just so good.

I don't know if it's just me, but these little things seem to really work! I've had crippling anxiety for the past 5 years, and I took one of these pastilles and it really seemed to help me relax and calm down. I definitely recommend this product to anyone that needs stress relief or anxiety relief in an all natural/homeopathic form. I don't take medication for my anxiety and this seems like the next best thing. I don't know where to buy in store as I received them as part of a subscription box, but you can purchase them through the manufacturer's website and they are listed at $8.50 (unclear on currency, but I'm assuming USD). -
