Biore Charcoal Deep Cleansing Pore Strips
These little things are great for blackheads on the nose. Not good for sensitive cause they cant hurt when you take them off. You let the strip dry until it's hard and it takes the blackheads and probably every tiny hair on your face with it.

Febreze Small Spaces with Gain Island Fresh Scent Refills Air Freshener
If you love the scent of gain laundry soap than this is one for you. I wasn't a big fan and preferred the Hawaiian one. Easy to use and doesn't need to be plugged it. They last a couple weeks, so for the price I'd grab them on sale only.

Dove Go Fresh Revive Pomegranate & Lemon Verbena Body Wash
Like the scent of this one a little fruity with pomegranate and lemon. My skin feels very soft after using it. I use it with every shower. It lathers up nice and rinses off easily.

Worry free shampoo that really works! My hair feels so soft and lightweight and not weighed down by chemicals. The scent smells so natural and clean. I can’t believe how well this shampoo works on my hair over other natural products I’ve tried.
This Attitude repair and colour protection shampoo is made with sensitive skin in mind. It has all natural plant based ingredients in compliance with EWG standards. If you’re not familiar with EWG they analyze and rate every single ingredient according to their toxicity. This attitude shampoo scores at a 1-2 and is a top scoring product so it avoids any ingredients of concern. This is absolutely amazing in my books! The company has done a lot of testing and it sure shows in the quality of the shampoo, it works wonders for my hair! Hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested, free from artificial perfumes and dyes, vegan and PETA certified so never tested on poor animals. It’s also ECOLOGO certified meaning the shampoo is biodegradable and sustainable and won’t cause any harm to the environment. You have to imagine all the chemicals we wash down the drains that end up in the lakes and oceans. There’s no harmful parabens, preservatives, or chemicals at all! As natural as pulling a plant from garden and eating it.
The scent is so relaxing with a vanilla aroma and hint of argan oil. Vanilla not only smells wonderful it’s rich in antioxidants and will help prevent damage, also more silky and shiny too. Argan oil is an age old beauty secret used in so many products or on its own. It deeply hydrates and soothes all hair types along with improving elasticity so each strand of your hair is stronger and you get less breakage and split ends. And my favorite, oatmeal! This ingredient I think made the big difference for me. Oatmeal has B vitamins which brings more moisture to your hair. So not only is your hair hydrated it will be less frizzy and soft. If you have dandruff and irritation like I occasionally get you will see a difference with this one. The oatmeal will remove excess oils that are causing your dandruff and help to prevent it.
The shampoo is not thick at all. Closer to a water constancy and lathers very well. I only needed a small amount to do all of my long hair, this bottle will last me double the amount of time than a regular drugstore bottle. The shape of the bottle is curved and is easy to hold in your hand. The only thing I don’t like it the lid to open it. It can be difficult to maneuver the top to open when your hands are wet.
I love that is so natural and safe for coloured hair. Anything that will keep my dye longer is a plus. The scent and the feeling after washing my hair is wonderful. My sensitive dandruff scalp has really appreciated this one and I will be certainly trying more from the Attitude hair care line.

The Curatea Detox has been wonderful for my body. I use one tea bag a day and now I feel I have more energy. This 100% Organic tea has helped my digestive system and my skin is looking better also. I really like that one container is a one month supply for me of 30 bags and that the tea bags are good quality and don’t leak bits in my cup.
The taste is one of the best I have tried for a detox tea. Not to bitter with a light natural flavor. The package suggests boiling the tea bag for 5-10 minutes, I prefer 10 minutes to get all the flavor. The smell is quite nice, you can definitely smell all the natural plants and it’s a great holistic approach on a natural detox. I drink the tea on its own without any sugar or milk because I don’t want to add in any unhealthy ingredients.
The benefits of all these natural plants is quite impressive and will surely give your system a good flush. There is 3 medicinal ingredients all with amazing benefits to our body:
· 600mg- Arctium lappa aka Burdock Root grows like a weed and is a natural anti-inflammatory which can help with pain and swelling. It also is an antioxidant and can protect your body from toxins that can cause cancers, heart diseases and cell damage. Burdock Root has been used for many years to detoxify and treat circulation for cancer, anorexia, gastrointestinal problems, bladder infections, and so much more.
· 300mg- Althaea officinalis aka Marshmallow plant is my favorite ingredient for the issues my body goes through. It has had an important place in human culture for a millennia with all it’s wonderful properties. It can ease stomach ulcers, diarrhea, constipation and can even repair the mucous membranes in your respiratory tract, stomach and urinary tract. This amazing plant can flush your system to cleanse your bladder and kidneys as well.
· 600mg- Taraxacum officinale aka Dandelion is those annoying yellow flowered weeds that are just popping up in my grass right now. I never knew how good they can be for you. Dandelions are high in vitamin C to boost your immunity. They can increase your appetite, relive constipation, control your blood sugar levels, lower blood pressure and reduce your cholesterol. I have seen it before in weight loss supplements because the natural properties of this flower can aid in weight loss.
This Curatea Detox tea comes in a tin container and is a nice one to keep after your done to store spices. My container has an expiry date of 2022 so this tea will stay good for a couple years in your cupboard. The labelling is nice, you can read the front label easily although I feel the rest of the font is too small and may be hard for some people to read with poor eyesight. Since this tea is all natural with high milligrams there is cautions and warnings for certain conditions that will contraindicate. Such as if you have edema, diabetic, kidney or liver disorders, high/low blood pressure or allergic to the daisy plant family. You don’t want to detox your body to fast and it’s always best to start slow.
I really like this tea and will defiantly get some more! At 29.99 it’s only a buck a bag for a natural effective detox. It has given me much more energy every day and has no side effects. Especially with the Covid-19 happening I will continue taking it to help better my immune system. This is a great tea product, can’t wait to try the other kinds from Curatea.

After using the Dermaniche Resveratrol my skin looks and feels healthier. Even just after the second pill I started to receive compliments that I was glowing. I have not see any difference yet to my acne but my overall color and elasticity has certainly changed for the better. If you are looking for something that actually works I would recommend you give Dermaniche a try.
Resveratrol is found in many foods such as red and white wine, dark chocolate, peanuts, cranberries and blueberries. It’s a quite amazing plant based anti-oxidant. These plants can protect themselves from UV ray damage from the sun and fungus. These pills are derived from red wine resveratrol and when ingested the body gets rid of free-radicals which cause damage to our cells resulting in premature aging. When free radicals damage our cells your body and skin is more vulnerable to tired looking skin and hair along with disease such as cancers.
In my opinion these pills are a fountain of youth that can do so many wonderful things for our skin. I love how easy and convenient it is to take one a day with water. The research on the ingredients is well known to work and I can’t wait to see the long term effects it has on my skin.

I’m using a deluxe sample size of the My Clarins re-boost refreshing moisturizing cream and it feels very nice on my skin in the morning. The texture of the cream was very light and refreshing with no greasy feeling. Wonderful for under liquid foundation or pressed powder. The cream absorbed in quickly and my skin had no irritation or tingling. I like that it has a lighter scent that isn’t too strong.
If you have a dehydrated skin type I would recommend this one for morning use and a richer cream for at night. I have a dehydrated combination skin with acne and found it not to be hydrating enough to use am & pm. The cream is more concentrated and you only need a small amount, it’s not watered down. I would imagine a full size jar would last quite a few months.
The deluxe sample packaging reminds me of a sunscreen bottle which is great for travelling. I like that the cap unscrews at the bottom. This way when the cream gets low you will be able to get every last drop out. The ingredients are not natural or organic but they are at least vegan friendly. In the cream there’s apricot, coconut and fig. Apricot is wonderful for dry irritated skin because of the vitamin A that hydrates and protects. The coconut oil is perfect for acne since its antimicrobial and reduces inflammation to heal. The fig in the cream is the most interesting since it’s a natural antioxidant to improve the health of your skin while increasing circulation.
Overall the cream is nice but nothing amazing for my skin. I did not see a difference in my acne just hydrating. I would recommend this one for someone with normal skin or combination. The scent is nice and light and it feels nice while your applying it.

This Green Beaver company antiperspirant is wonderful! I have never tried a natural deodorant before and have always wanted to see what it was all about. It actually is much more effective than anything I have tried. Way less sweating and the scent last all day long.
The Verve antiperspirant feels very soft on my underarms. I would say it actually hydrates my skin and doesn’t just sit on top. I always feel that even after a shower I can feel a film from previous deodorants I’ve used and have had yellow staining on my clothes. With this one there’s no waxy film and my clothes haven’t had a problem with stains yet.
The package is your typical deodorant container. You slide the cap off, twist the bottom and apply. The smell is nice and light, a very fresh scent with all natural jasmine, citrus, geranium and mountain litsea cubeba. Mountain litsea cubeba also referred to as mountain pepper is a type of evergreen tree that smells like citrus with a hint of spice, like cinnamon. It fights bacteria so you smell great all day long.
The difference with this antiperspirant is that it’s Aluminum free and 100% natural. Aluminum is in most deodorants and can cause breast cancer, clog your pores and cause irritation. I feel the quality is excellent and they have really made a great antiperspirant, you can feel the difference immediately. Definitely recommend this one for everyone to try, my friends and family are quite impressed.
After using it I have stayed dry for hours, which normally doesn’t happen. I will use it every morning and add more before I work out. So happy to see these all natural ingredients and how nice it smells. Definitely a great product, so happy I was given the opportunity to try it.
