Everything about this brand is good, except the packaging. I LOVE the taste and the products they make, even looking at the hilarious ones like fake beef in a tube!
But holy moly, I will not be buying many more of their products. There is so much cardboard and plastic wrapping all their products, and some come with so few items (eg. burgers come with only 2 burgers, like the Beyond Meat ones, also unapolegitcally harmful for the environment) that it makes me somewhat uncomfortable when I see them in the store now.

Don't buy this. If you want the benefit of what is in this, eat a potato. Literally the only medicinal ingredient is potato starch. That is what people scrape off the top of boiling potatoes as it is not healthy to over consume.
This is an extreme example of a gimmick. If you value your health, do research before using this. All Solanum means is potato, which is part of the night shade family which includes tomatoes and peppers, among others. Consuming sprouts or green potatos (and do you know the potatoes in this are Not green? No!) are highly toxic.
Starch makes up for most part of our diet, majorly because most foods contain starch made up of sugar and carbohydrates. Everyday foods like potato, corn, peas, sweet potato, rice et al can all be high in starch. Starch metabolizes quickly, causing to increase blood sugar levels right after eating.
Potatoes contain a chemical that decreases blood clotting. Taking large amounts of potato with medications used for dissolving blood clots might increase the chance of bleeding and bruising.
Potatoes spike blood sugar levels as carbs are broken down into sugars and move into your bloodstream. In people with diabetes, the sugar isn’t cleared properly, leading to higher blood sugar levels and potential health complications.

I like how this shampoo set smells, but the scent is not from the rosewater, which is the third-last ingredient. There is unnatral fragrance instead listed way above. So any rose-hype of how great it is doesn't come through with these products as... +
I like how this shampoo set smells, but the scent is not from the rosewater, which is the third-last ingredient. There is unnatral fragrance instead listed way above. So any rose-hype of how great it is doesn't come through with these products as the amount is negligable.
It does make my hair soft, though.

I'm not sure what the cleaning agent is in this, but there is no sodium laurel or anything related, which is soap. So, I don't think it will really clean anything. It may life the dirt away but not the germs.

I love English Breakfast tea, for a midmorning break or break at work. It has enough flavour and good taste that I actually Want to drink this instead of coffee even though it isn't as huge a punch inthe face as coffee (obviously).
My manager actually turned me on to this tea and we have a box of it at work.

I love this chamomile. I like it better than others because it seems to have a slightly more robust flavour than others I have tried. My boyfriend likes this one too for nighttime and he is Not a tea drinker!

This tea actually tastes like proper Earl Grey tea. It has the right balance of bergamot flavouring and has quickly become my favourite afternoon tea. It brings back memories of childhood tea parties with my mom.

Both the plastic wrap and the cardboard box inside, claim the following: Olay Unscented Fragrance-Free Sensitive Bar Soap
when there is clearly, in the ingredients list, FRAGRANCE/PARFUM.
This is misleading to consumers, false claims and lies. They have caused me to break out in a rash convering most of my body, including my vaginal areas.
Companies are not allowed to make false claims.

I am not sure this did anything for me. I see it is a scrub but compared to my regular little scrubby glovies from the drug store (like a poof but glove form for washing) I didn't see a difference. I really wanted to like this line but it wasn't for me. I hope to notice a difference once it is sunnier and tanning season, to see if it actually helps keep my face less-than-tanned. -

The moisturizer properties are nice, I felt refreshed. However, adding SPF to any makeup or facial products is just a gimmick. You would need to slather on a thick layer in order to get the same spf protection you do from sunscreen. Especially for so low an SPF. Notice how thick that is, and it is ONLY for spf, not moisturizing. -
