BIC Soleil are my favorite razors. I don't like less or more blades or extra stuff around the blades. These are my Goldilocks of razors.
The handle is easy to grip and doesn't slip out of my hand in the shower, yet is also easy to man-oeuvre. The blade take care of business, are of good quality and last quite a while before you need to throw the razor out and pull out a new one. Very rarely do I get burns or cuts, and if so it's not the razor's fault.
The packages go on sale very often and are of great value when they do.

I originally bought them for non-facial applications, like nail polish removal and applying rubbing alcohol or small cleaning jobs. However, they're not bad even for certain facial uses, such as facial make up removal and toner/exfoliant. I would still not use them on the eyes, still a little too rough for that.
But they are of pretty good quality, and this is one good value Costco purchase!

I bough a few of these packs because they were $0.50 each, and they are great to keep as emergency emery boards in my purse for that price. They are not very sturdy as they are foam with a sandpaper/ emery sheet glued on each side, too much pressure makes them come apart or bend and then they are done for.
They do file well when used carefully, but I would absolutely not pay full price for a pack.

These are classic nail files for a reason. They are inexpensive but they work and work well. You can get a ton of use out of one board, with great control.
I have tried the metal files, the glass files, the weird foam in the middle files, the blocks and probably a few other types. They all don't perform as well as these, and all of them cost more too!

I like but don't love the Kocostar Silver Princess Eye Patches.
They are cooling, and feel great. They hydrate and brighten my under eye area. The patches themselves are a transparent silver and almost sparkle.But they are a weird shape. Granted, these are my first eye patches, but I follow beauty bloggers and see pictures of other brands. The Silver Princess patches, on the wide side, go from my inner eye down to the end of my nose and are proportionate. All other patches I've seen are thinner. Maybe that's why they DON'T STICK. If you move they move - just like that. If you breathe, they move - just like that. I resort to holding them down until I can lay down in bed for the time they need to be on.
Otherwise, they're great.The packaging is stunning. I am going to be saving the container and box afterwards and find something to use them for.

The box is not only recyclable, the shredded paper you see promises to grow flowers when planted. I'm going to test that promise in the spring!

Don't ignore the word spicy on a Nongshim noodle bowl. Ever.
Nongshim Bowl Noodle Soup Spicy Kimchi Flavor tastes ok. The broth isn't bad, but it doesn't really taste too much like kimchi and it's saltier than most noodle bowls, though on a par with other Nongshim ones.This would be a decent soup for when you have a cold, as I think it could clear up sinuses fast if you eat it quickly!

I was pleasantly surprised with Yes To Tomatoes Detoxifying Charcoal Paper Mask. I had a bad reaction to another "Yes to" mask, but this one performed well.
The mask has fit issues. I have no clue what type of face this was modeled after because the eye holes are the size of 3/4 of my fist, the mouth hole is rather small, there is a lot of material between the eyes, and the edges only go halfway across my cheeks.
Fit and an odd but not unpleasant scent aside, the mask tingled (as described) but did not burn. It was soothing at the end. When it came off, my skin looked brighter and my pores looked tighter and cleaner (ugh!). After I moisturized, my skin was really soft.
This mask gave me back some confidence in "Yes to" masks!

Rooster is one of the best store-bought bottled kimchis I have purchased.
Yes, I have had better home made versions in Korean restaurants. But I love kimchi and I want to eat it at home and buy it conveniently. This version is the right balance of flavours and size of the cabbage for me.
Costco sells a bigger container of the same brand, but I find that one to be more bitter for some reason, almost fully sour to the point you need to add a little sugar to rebalance. (I read about adding salt to do that - don't try it, it's nasty.) The 1kg version just tastes better.

This cheese is THE REAL DEAL unless you are shredding your own block.Parmesan petals are to die for.
You'll want to munch on them but they are amazing on salads, pasta, pizza, anything! That shake on dry stuff is never going to come back into your life after you've tried this.
I buy these (note more than 1) at Costco for the best value, but they sell smaller sized ones at many chain grocery stores too.
