First of all, I love that this solves the problem of plastic packaging. This product is highly sustainable and doesn't contain silicone. It's easy to use (and is in an easy to hold shape) and lathers nicely. It seems to clean my hair well and leaves it feeling soft and clean. It isn't as effective at preventing a bit of frizz when air drying as some other products I've used, but it's not terrible at all. I love the light, clean scent. It seems gentle on my colored hair and didn't dull my highlights in any way.
Overall, I quite like this product. It says it lasts up to 2 months. I'm hoping it might last a bit longer without going bad. If I had one suggestion, it might be a way to store it, maybe some sort of recyclable, wood try or even something like you used to see with soap on a rope?

In this house Dr. Oetker are the only frozen pizzas we'll buy and eat! The ingredients look better and more like delivery pizza than the brand that uses that as a selling point! These get nice and crispy and have a great taste, no complaints and extra convenient for work in this size! -

I received this sample for review purposes, unfortunately there was no indication on the package that that was what it was and husband ate it before I saw it arrived, as he thought it was just a product sample. 😆 SO... he says it was good, really chocolatey and it spread amazing! He ate it right out of the sample container with a spoon of peanut butter and some crackers. Can confirm he would eat again because it was yum, so two thumbs up. -
Schmidt's Bergamot + Lime Natural Deodorant

I love this brand, I notice others have complained about rashes but I've always found this brand gentle and non-irritating and this scent is the same. Speaking of the scent, this one is amazing! It's so fresh and citrusy, the lime scent is so clean and bright! I found it had decent longevity on a hot day and definitely kept me dry and smelling good! This one is a new favourite! -

This Hyaluronic Acid serum is fragrance free and that is a BIG plus in my books, so big I started the review with this fact! The product takes a little longer to absorb I thought and goes on with more of a tacky after-feel but this doesn’t last long and the results are so worth it. I was left with skin that felt extra soft and smooth and looked well-hydrated. The serum contains a great mix of prebiotic ingredients that help boost the effects of the hyaluronic acid which is a must in any beauty routine. For the price and the results, I think this product would make a great addition to a moisture boosting, anti-aging skin care regimen. -

This product containing hyaluronic acid and antioxidants looks like a thick gel/cream combo that spreads so smoothly, absorbs quickly and is designed to restore moisture while you sleep. It did a good job of making my skin feel extra smooth, soft and refreshed when I woke up in the morning and it didn’t cause any breakouts which can sometimes happen when trying a new product on my skin. I wasn’t a fan of the lingering floral fragrance that I found noticeably strong and honestly, I don't think skin care needs added fragrance as that’s just something extra that might irritate sensitive skin. For that reason I don’t recommend this for sensitive or reactive skin types but others should find these a decent addition to their beauty routine. -

Realemon Garlic infusion is a super convenient way to add some flavour to your cooking. I decided to try using it to flavour a coconut cream sauce for a light, vegetable pasta. I chopped up and lightly cooked onions, red pepper, broccoli and mushroom. I then combined some heavy coconut milk, a couple of tablespoons of the Realemon infusion and some salt and pepper. After boiling some spaghetti al dente, I added the sauce and veggies and finished it in a large pan. It turned out wonderfully! The flavour was bright and fresh with a lovely hint of garlic, which always goes well with pasta. It made meal prep that much quicker and easier. I definitely recommend this product to anyone who likes to cook but also enjoys finding handy shortcuts. It was a little hard to find but that might have been because it was a newer product. Two thumbs up!
I had the opportunity to try this product free courtesy of Chickadvisor.

This is the one my husband really liked! It has a clean, non-flowery and non overpowering fragrance that goes on easily. It held up to a day of manual labor in the heat without causing any irritation. Magnesium is supposed to minimize odor and in combination with the activated charcoal, is very effective. This product is also certified vegan and cruelty-free, which is a must in our household. I recommend this product for the whole family! -

I tried this deodorant courtesy of Chick Advisor. The fragrance is beautiful, subtle and I was surprised you could actually detect both the rose and the pepper, so unique and natural smelling. The formula goes on smoothly and I didn't experience any crumbly, white residue. It's s super gentle causing no irritation or dryness (it's infused with hemp oil). It worked all day, even while working in the garden on a hot day. What more could you want? Throw in vegan and cruelty-free and you've got an amazing product that is worth a repeat purchase! -

I had the chance to try a Becel unsalted plant based brick recently courtesy of Family Rated. It's ideal if you are vegan or have a dairy allergy. I've been using it on toast, on veggies, anywhere you'd use butter. It spreads easily and has a good flavour (although a salted version is probably better for toast!) Today I used it to make banana bread and it works perfectly for baking, blending nicely and completely taking the place of butter with no issues.
If you don't use dairy products like me or you'd like to cut back, give this a try (it comes in salted as well).
