I got this product free in exchange for my honest review: I’ve been using the Neostrata Skin Active Rebound Sculpting Cream for a month now (AM&PM), and I have to say — I’m loving it! It leaves my skin feeling so fresh, plump, and beautifully dewy without being greasy or heavy. The texture melts right in, giving my skin that soft, healthy glow that looks great even without makeup!
One of my favourite things is that it’s completely fragrance-free — no perfumey scent, no lingering smell, just clean hydration. My skin is on the sensitive side, and I’ve had zero irritation or redness, which is such a win!
The formula is impressive too — it combines peptides and gentle exfoliating acids that help support firmness and smoothness over time. It feels like skincare that actually does something, while still being calming and comforting to use.
Overall, this cream has really earned its spot on my shelf. My skin feels bouncy, hydrated, and dewy every time I use it — and I genuinely look forward to putting it on!

Hatch Coffee - Maple Oatado Flavor

Oh, Hatch’s Maple Oat-ado—you tiny, sippable cutie! Seriously, this thing is adorable—pocket-sized, travel-ready, and happy to join you whether you like your drinks warm and cozy or chilled and refreshing.
It’s creamy, it’s smooth, and it’s got a sweet little maple kiss that made my Canadian heart flutter. 🥰🍁 But let’s be honest, it’s almost too tiny! I was just getting into the groove when—poof—it was gone. I definitely found myself wishing it came in a bigger size so I could stretch out the joy a little longer.
One small bummer: I noticed canola oil is pretty high up on the ingredient list. It’s not a deal-breaker for everyone, but for me, it knocked a few points off. Swap that out for something a little more health-forward and I’d be fully on board!
That said, I’m so glad I got to try it—it’s a delightful little treat, made right here in Canada 🇨🇦, and it really does taste like a sweet maple hug. Just not quite a perfect match for me. 🥄 Tiny, tasty, and worth a try!

YUMMY! Chapman's has such a diverse selection of ice cream, with 180 options you don't need to look anywhere else! Their premium plus line is so rich and satisfying, it's honestly made it's way to the top of my list! Not only is Chapman's Canadian, but they find ways to support local communities by sourcing their ingredients with purpose! I learnt they are the only national Canadian ice cream brand selling selling products in every province and territory, so no Canadian is missing out. I've tried the Cold Brew Coffee and the Butter Tart flavour--both took the cake! There's no more cake! Forget your other premium ice cream band. MUST TRY THIS! -
BLUE LIZARD MINERAL SUNSCREEN SENSITIVE SPF50 89ML

I really enjoy this sunscreen! I has very little scent, melts nicely on your skin, doesn't leave you feeling greasy, and my husband appreciated that it doesn't get all bunched up in his body hair. It does leave a slight white cast if you lay it on heavy. We tested it on our face as well and are happy to report that after long wear neither of us experience teary or stinging eyes! The bottle is really cool too as the cap goes from clear to blue when exposed to enough UV, and this acts as your indicator to put some on! The only thing I'm not 100% on board with are the ingredients. I try and avoid Aluminum Salts and Butyloctyl Salicylate, but in small doses the risks are pretty mild.

I had high hopes for the Catelli Protein+ Spaghetti and it absolutely did not disappoint. Pasta night is sacred in my house, and I’m so happy I can enjoy it while getting a solid 17g of protein per serving — all plant-based! This spaghetti cooks to the perfect al dente texture in just 8 minutes and tastes exactly like the pasta I grew up with. Honestly, if the box didn’t tell me it was loaded with extra protein, I would have never known! It’s such a smart way to fuel up, especially as a vegetarian. I’ve tried it with tomato sauce, pesto, and even in cold pasta salads — it works beautifully every time! Furthermore, it scored 90 on Yuka and it's earned a permanent spot in my pantry!

The Catelli Protein+ Elbows are a total game changer! As a vegetarian, I always look for sneaky ways to up my protein intake without compromising taste, and this pasta absolutely delivers. I used it in a classic mac and cheese and I couldn’t believe the texture — it’s exactly like regular pasta: perfectly chewy and holds up so well. The best part? It only takes 6 minutes to cook, which is a lifesaver on hectic weeknights. I’m genuinely impressed that it packs 17g of plant-based protein per serving with ingredients like peas, lentils, and chickpeas! Furthermore, I'm impressed it scores 90 with Yuka! Don't settle for normal pasta when you can have this!!

I’m seriously blown away by the Catelli Protein+ Penne! I’ve been hunting for ways to add more protein to my vegetarian meals, and this pasta makes it so easy. I honestly wouldn’t have known it was packed with chickpeas, peas, and lentils if I hadn’t read the box. The texture and taste are just like classic pasta — no weird aftertaste, no mushiness. It cooked to perfect al dente in just 9 minutes, making it super convenient on busy nights. The penne held sauces beautifully and made my hearty veggie bakes extra satisfying. Love that it’s vegan, non-GMO, and has 17g of protein per serving! This is officially a pantry staple for me!

I’m loving the OGX® Bond Protein Repair Conditioner! 💆♀️ The tropical fruity scent is such a vibe 🍓🌺—my fiancé couldn’t stop commenting on how good my hair smelled! It pairs perfectly with the shampoo and leaves my curls feeling extra hydrated and soft. While I can’t say it completely tames frizz (because, curly life!), it definitely makes my hair feel stronger and healthier. It's also colour-safe, which I really appreciate. And seeing an "Excellent" Yuka score just seals the deal! 🙌 -

The OGX® Bond Protein Repair Shampoo has been a great addition to my haircare routine! 💛 The fruity scent is so good—my fiancé actually complimented how amazing my hair smelled right after the first use 🍍✨. I have curly hair, so I live in a permanent state of frizz, but I still noticed my hair felt softer, healthier, and stronger right away. I appreciate that it's a cleansing shampoo, so it doesn't strip my hair. I also love that it’s safe for colour-treated hair, which is a must for me. And bonus: it scored “Good” on Yuka! ✅ -
