I usually wear acrylics but painted my toes and my 3yo daughter's. The brush is large and tapered. It covered our diff nail sizes beautifully and only needed 1 coat for true colour. It dried quick and hardly had a smell.
I got this as a free trial from Chick advisor. The coral colour is something I will wear in summer A lot but I prefer merlot or taupe in winter. It is very similar to Essie "cute as a button"
My trial also came with top coat. I only used it on one foot to really test the polish and it lasted pretty good without it but there was noticeable wear on my toes without it by the end of the week. (Wearing socks and boots all day everyday)

We keep a bottle of this in our guest room. Regardless of age or gender or skin conditions it's great! The light scent is clean but doesn't stay with you bout of the shower. It's moisturizing but not heavy or thick or greasy and it's gentle. I swapped it out once for some fancy stuff and frequent guests complained!
It's also my go-to when travelling bc we only need one bottle for the fam

AXE Black Antiperspirant
This stuff smelled great and complimented the other products I received (body wash and spray) but forget about stopping sweat. Maybe if I wore it on a weekend running errands and hanging around the house but definitely not on a construction site!

This is a great alternative to expensive colognes. Great for tossing into the gym bag or appetizing after work on your way to a date. Go easy tho, this stuff is concentrated and doesn't fade the way you might think. The scent is subtle but manly. My gf says it smells like 'A clean man'. I like that it doesn't have a lid to worry about and it's great for travel so I won't be too bummed if I lose it. -

got this for my husband, but he was having a skin reaction when it came - so my dad was the lucky recipient! He was very glad! I hear he actually had to hide the cream from my mom!
his words:
The cream is really thin, but moisturises well, it didnt leave greasy or oily stuff behind and my skin felt soft and not itchy after. the smell was "manly" but nice and subtle, a perfect middle ground - to stand on its own, but if i wanted to wear cologne it wouldnt compete. the tin was great too- easy to open and good to throw in my gym bag or toss in a drawer.

Dove Refresh + Care Volume & Fullness Dry Shampoo
Use as the instructions list. And shake can throughout use to prevent white residue but omg yes! Best dry shampoo I've used. Not stiff or crunchy. Fresh scent. Actually gives instant body and absorbs grease! I'm switching brands!

Ever been cleaning your ears and had the swab bend - or worse -break?
Ever had that uncomfortable scrape because there isnt enough cotton on the end?
I bet they weren't Q-tip brand.
seriously, they might be a little more money, but they are so so worth it!
- PLUS they are completely biodegradeable so you can green-bin or even compost them, unlike the other guys who are made with plastic!
i use em for everything - cleaning ears, babies, piercings, when painting your nails, or crafting, plus for applying AND removing makeup- especially around your eyes where you want a clean tool everytime (lets be honest - when was the last time you washed a makeup brush?!)

this is a go-to for everything:
baby bums, dry skin patches, lips, cuticles, around nails to prevent nailpolish stains, around your hairline when getting a DIY dye-job, knees and elbows, cuts and scrapes, i even use it to take off makeup, and as an eye cream, plus the old go-to of on hands and feet with socks/gloves at bedtime for the softest skin ever.

These are the best wipes ever! you get a ton for the price, they smell nice but not overpowering, you only need one, they get everything off! even waterproof eyeliner and mascara, and they give a slight exfoliation, i use these on nights when i cant be bothered to wash my face- when i first started using them 10 years ago it was b/c of a late night out at the bar, now its b/c my kids have kept me up late! either way i can trust ill get a clean face, unstained pillow case and i can even skip lotion on my normal skin b/c it wont be stripped.
ive tried fancier ones but these are my go-to they dont rip, arent too small and the price per wipe compared to other wipes cant be beat!
