Aveeno Baby Lightly Scented Natural Oat Formula Wash & Shampoo

I find in general most baby wash and shampoos on the market to be more or less the same quality-wise and not much differentiate between them all. While I did appreciate that this body wash shampoo is very lightly fragranced, hypoallergenic, paraben free and a really gentle body wash shampoo that's perfect for eczema prone skin, I don't think that it was any different than my daughter's current go to. -

This serum has a really runny consistency; therefore, it is quite messy to apply and you can pump out too much product to apply. This is one of those serums that a little product really goes a long way, as it tends to leave an overly sticky layer on your skin, when you don't. It does leave a nice layer on your skin in order to help lock in that moisture throughout the night. This serum is best to be used along with their anti-pollution overnight treatment! Together, you wake up with refreshed and well hydrated skin. Perfect for the dry Alberta weather. Also worth noting, this product is fragrance-free which is always a win in my books because fragrance can sometimes be an irritant to my skin! -

These snacks are a great healthy alternative when you're in a snacking mood! They are crunchy and have unique flavors as opposed to other glazed nut type snacks! They are perfect to carrying with you on the go or tucking in you desk at work for those afternoons, you feel a bit peckish. I also like that these snacks contain a decent source of protein and fiber! -

I was throughly surprised by this protein bar. I didn't have big expectations for the taste, as I often find a lot of healthy protein energy bars often don't taste very palatable. But this was not the case with this one. It tasted delicious and it was also packed with protein and fibre. Perfect snack to consume after a workout session. -

This product is advertised as being suitable for all skin types! I have combination skin than can sometimes also vary from dry to oily extremes depending on the season. I find that very little product goes a long way! Initially, I had felt this product was better suited for those with drier skin types, as it left a bit of a oily and sticky film on my skin! However, the following day, I utilized this moisturizer, I applied less product and it was able to properly absorb into the skin, did not leave a sticky residue, and my skin felt dewy and looked nicely hydrated! While, I didn't see a significant change in 7 days, I did notice that my skin felt less dry! I liked that this moisturizer wasn't heavily fragranced, as fragrance tends to be a trigger for my eczema. The scent of this moisturizer quickly dissipates, once the moisturizer is absorbed into the skin! -

I was highly anticipating the launch of the Drunk Elephant haircare products. Initially, I was a little bit skeptical whether they would live up to the hype given the price tag, but I am happy to they did! My previously glossy, smooth and shiny hair is currently dry and experiencing some weird regrowth where all the baby hairs have a mind of their own postpartum! This shampoo was perfect in bringing back some hydration, shine, and life back to my hair.
A very small amount of product went a long way, so much so that I didn't feel the need to wash my hair the second day, which is saying a lot as I previously couldn't bear to skip a day of hair washing! I love that the shampoo and conditioner are clean products, especially free of fragrance, as my scalp can be irritated by heavily fragranced hair products! The shampoo and conditioner smells amazing and like coconuts! However, did not leave a lingering scent once the product was rinsed out of your hair.

These products are quite pricy and when they first launched, I was skeptical whether they would be worth the price tag, but I picked them up from Sephora during the spring sale. It was advertised as perfect for all hair types. My hair was previously glossy, smooth and shiny; however, postpartum, it is currently dry and experiencing some weird regrowth where all the baby hairs have a mind of their own!
A very small amount of product went a long way, so much so that I didn't feel the need to wash my hair the second consecutive day, which is saying a lot as I previously couldn't bear to skip a day of hair washing! I love that the shampoo and conditioner does not contain essential oils, alcohol, parabens, SLS, fragrance, silicones, and chemical sunscreens, as my skin is sensitive to and my scalp can be irritated by heavily fragranced hair products! The conditioner smells amazing and like coconuts! However, did not leave a lingering scent once the product was rinsed out of your hair. This shampoo and conditioner was perfect in bringing back some hydration, shine, and life back to my hair, and I will definitely repurchase both the shampoo and conditooner once I use up my current bottles!

Postpartum skin can be unpredictable and hormonal, sometimes dull and often times tired and dehydrated, so I'm here for this serum and happy to add this to my daily routine. It smells lovely; nothing overly fragrant and the scent doesn't linger after the initial application. It feels really great on the skin, cool, and does not leave a sticky residue. The serum is light and a thin consistency, so it doesn't feel heavy or like it is clogging your pores.
I've used it for 7 days and my skin already feels better, and looks amazing! My skin feels soft, dewy, and smooth as opposed to dry and tight. It looks all around a bit more radiant and healthy.

Becel Unsalted Plant-Based Bricks
I love that this plant based brick is so easy to use and can be used as a1:1 substitute for butter. No fancy complicated math involved, just replace butter in your recipe and you can easily convert your recipe to vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free!... +
I love that this plant based brick is so easy to use and can be used as a1:1 substitute for butter. No fancy complicated math involved, just replace butter in your recipe and you can easily convert your recipe to vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free! Taste wise, I could not tell the difference. I used the brick to make butter cookies and it had the same flakiness that normally could only be achieved with butter. The texture of the bricks is generally like butter, however, is a bit more soft like margarine would be when pulling it straight out of the fridge. I really like the unsalted version, as I often do a lot of pastry making and use a lot of unsalted butter, so I was super glad that Becel had both an unsalted and salted versions! -

This moisturizer has a nice texture and consistency. It is ultra thick or too watery and applies super easy. It leaves a slight sticky residue on the skin, but helps lock in the moisture from and enhances the efficacy of the previous 3 steps. I like that this last step contains spf, as protection from the sun is an important part of taking care of your skin. I loved the this moisturizer made my skin felt soft and smooth. -
