This scent IS the accent to my teenage years. The white jasmine and peachy notes will always bring so much nostalgia to my life. I always keep a little on hand just so I can reminisce but I don't wear it on a regular basis because it is a bit overbearing. -

*I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review*
I really wanted to love this but it unfortunately did not live up to my expectations. I demoed this sunless tanner, once for 1 hour and again for 3 (honestly, it was closer to 4) but I just wasn't blown away. Some major positives: this product is super simple to use and the instructions are foolproof. Exfoliate, dry off, rub this foam all over (I did it with a tanning mitt for proper coverage and blending). Let it dry before putting your clothes back on and wash it off for a beautiful, sunless tan. Unfortunately, when I washed it off at 1 hour there was zero difference. I tried a few days later and left it for almost 4 hours. There's a super subtle, barely there tan post wash. I like the effect but I was hoping for a "just came back from vacation" vibe, not a "had my lunch outside" feel. If you don't like scented products, this may not be for you. I personally found it to smell like sunscreen mixed with a Pina colada and I was into it! I probably wouldn't recommend this item and can't see myself repurchasing it. I absolutely love the idea, though! I've steered away from regular sunless tanner because application looks messy but turning it into a foam is genius!

La Roche Posay Lipikar AP+M

I used this for my daughter's eczema flare up and it felt like it really moisturized her skin and helped with her skin barrier. That said, she did say it hurt when her skin was super irritated and I did notice it left her trouble spots red. When she wasn't in an active flare up, it worked well enough but between having to avoid it when her skin is extra angry and the higher price point, I didn't feel it was worth buying another bottle when we finished the first one. -
Evian Brumisateur Natural Mineral Water Facial Spray

This is a great face mist in the summer, but honestly it mostly feels like water. I like carrying it around in the summer months for a quick blast of hydration for me or the kids to help cool down but I don't necessarily keep it on hand for my skincare routine. -

Please remember this is a more natural shampoo, so avoid this if you're expecting a big, bubbly lather. You won't get it here. What you will get is a "healing tea tree" scent (if you know, you know!) that will leave your scalp feeling clean and a little tingly. My partner loves this when his dandruff is out of hand. I only wish the shampoo was a bit thicker, I find it a bit on the watery side. I tend to find this regularly at Winners/Marshalls so the value is great. -

'll start with the good -- this shampoo smells so lovely and makes me feel like I was at a salon getting my hair washed. I wanted to love this so much but while it left my hair looking shiny and soft, my scalp (I tend to be on the oily side) didn't feel clean and I started getting random dry spots near my neck. It felt like it didn't break up the oil effectively. -
Traditional medicines mothers milk tea

I wish I found love for this product. I've seen it do wonders for others, but unfortunately, I couldn't use it long enough to see it work for me. The taste is really off-putting. This was a major bummer because I've tried other Traditional Medicinal teas and they were great! The flavour just wasn't here for me. I'd still recommend it based on what others have said but I'd definitely let people know that it's an acquired taste. -

This product is no joke. After being on birth control for years, my period completely disappeared and I stopped ovulating. I wanted to have another baby down the line so that made me apprehensive, and I stopped taking the birth control. Still no ovulation or periods after a few months, so I'm obviously freaking out at this point. I picked up this product (make sure you get the one with vitex!) and my partner and I agreed we'd wait 6 months or so and then start trying for a baby.
The joke was on us, because this product regulated my hormones and brought back my period and ovulation before I even finished the bottle!
As far as side effects (beyond like, the glaringly obvious), I didn't experience anything negative beyond some hot flash episodes. It's hard to compare because I had to stop taking this product once I was pregnant.

Vega Sport Performance Protein (chocolate)

Having gone through my fair share of protein powders, Vega Sport is one of the smoothest vegan proteins on the market. My favourite is the mocha. Blend it up with ice, non-dairy milk, half a banana and a splash of coffee and you're good to go. I appreciate the fact that it also has BCAAs and glutamine, taking it from a conventional protein powder to a top tier contender. -
Platinum EasyMulti Energy for Women (60 Softgels)

I love this brand in general, but their multivitamin is so nice. The capsule looks daunting at first glance, it's a large black pill. Don't let it get to you -- not only is it a traditional multi, it also has a blend of herbs AND that dark oil is actually fish oil! No fishy burp back, but all the benefits. I think it's so innovative and different than what is already out there. -
