Chapman's Super Premium Plus Cherry Chocolate Truffle
What a nice sweet treat with a generous amount of cherries. It's very rich in flavor so a little goes a long way with this ice cream. I am looking forward to trying some of the other flavors from the Super Premium line.

Is your natural at home wax hair remover solution for the face and lip.
Its important to read all instructions and not rush because it can be a very messy process as you are dealing with hot wax, which can get you in a sticky situation. I had a little mishap while mixing it as it overflowed out of the container and started burning on the stove element.
Putting that aside, it’s a pretty painless at home waxing experience. I have to say I was a bit weirded out at first about applying hot wax directly on my skin and pulling it off without the use of strips. Don’t knock it until you try it. I was pleasantly surprised at how painless it was and the positive results. It does a really great job of removing facial hair, even the smallest coarsest pieces with a minimal amount of pain. The ultra soothe oil you apply directly after waxing does an amazing job of soothing the skin and getting rid of the sticky residue left behind from the wax.
Even though having the luxury of getting your facial wax done professionally is best, this is the best at home waxing experience. Just ensure to take your time as it can get messy and practice makes perfect.

I really loved the interesting combination of jasmine, red rose, vanilla and spicy amber scents. I found it a bit citrusy- nice and light, energizing and not too overbearing.
It gave me all day protection from sweat and odour. Even after my intense dance classes.
It’s a great antiperspirant to get you through an active day, odor free.
It casts on white, but rest assured if you get it on your dark clothing it wipes off easy.

Your all-in-one toothpaste that helps fight cavities, plaque, gingivitis, tooth sensitivity, tarter, bad breath while whitening.
I really enjoyed it and I didn’t find the mint flavor too overpowering. As for all the claims it makes, it’s far too soon to tell. In any case, Colgate has always been a trusted brand in my family and has been around forever. They are constantly evolving their product lines.

I really enjoyed the K-Cups. It’s my preferred method of brewing coffee in the morning. Although not the most environmentally friendly way, I like how the McCafe plastic K-cups can be recycled.
It’s a strong flavored coffee, but tasteful enough to drink it black as you really notice the subtle hints of cocoa and caramel without irritating your stomach.
The coffee beans are grown at a higher altitude, which means they grow a lot slower than coffee beans grown at lower altitudes. This leads to a more flavorful bean. You can tell that this is a higher quality cup of coffee.
Other benefits of this coffee is that it’s 100% ethically sourced and rainforest alliance certified.

What a lovely anti- aging facial serum. It’s a double formula water (hydric) and oil (lipidic) based serum, packed with 21 different plant extracts with such ingredients as turmeric root extract, banana fruit extract, mango leaf extract and kiwi fruit extract.
It has a nice floral scent that is not too overpowering.
I noticed immediate results with this serum. It’s incredibly hydrating and left my skin with a nice glow. After a week of use, I noticed a dramatic shrinking of the pores and a much smoother skin texture.
My only issue is that its oily and messy on the fingers, mixing the two formulas together. Just a minor irritant.
I will definitely be purchasing a full-sized bottle of this serum.

I am a hit the pavement running kind of person when it comes to toy assembly and will just start putting the pieces together without consulting an instruction manual. With the Gabby’s Doll House, I don’t recommend it as once you put the pieces together it’s very difficult to remove them. I positioned one of the legs backwards and not able to remove the piece. It’s a little frustrating, but not a huge deal at the end of the day as the dollhouse still functions just the shelf is a bit wobbly.
I consulted the instruction manual after the fact while going through the bag of stickers/decals. I wish the manual was a bit more accessible as I honestly didn’t think one existed. It might’ve saved me a bit of time at the end of the day.
It’s such a lovely toy and very interactive. It comes with all the basic tools for interacting in the kitchen-pot, pan, cutlery, cups, salt and pepper shaker etc. The fridge door opens as well. It’s a perfect toy for spending quality time with your kids in the kitchen.
Gabby’s Dollhouse takes AAA batteries as there are interactive sounds when you press Cakey or operate the stove dials. You can still operate the toy and get a lot of benefits without having the sounds, but it is a nice added benefit being able to turn the stove on and off.
It’s a really well thought out toy. I wish I had a toy like this when I was a kid.
