Playtex Nurser with Drop-ins Liners

I love these bottles. I find them so easy to clean since they're so wide. I don't need to use my bottle brush at all with these. I also like that they can be tilted to help with more upright feeding which is better for colicky babies. I also like that they made these bottles to be compatible with all the new Playtex nipples. Sometimes when babies don't take to the bottle, what they really disagree with is the nipple. And Playtex has plenty of different nipples. Some for small mouths, others for big mouths, etc. I received these for my baby shower along with a variety pack of the different nipples to try out on my baby.
I also like how tight the lid fits on them and how light the bottles are over all. My mother-in-law gave me her old glass baby bottles, and I find that they're pretty hefty compared to these BPA-free plastic ones.

Playtex Drop-Ins Pre-Sterilized Disposable Liners 8-10 OZ: 50 Count
I love that you each liner is pre-sterilized. Less washing since the milk never touches the bottle itself. I also like how the bag collapses to not let any air in. I suffered from colic as a baby and my mom found these to really help. I find them... +
I love that you each liner is pre-sterilized. Less washing since the milk never touches the bottle itself. I also like how the bag collapses to not let any air in. I suffered from colic as a baby and my mom found these to really help. I find them very easy to use and will be purchasing again. -
Parents's Choice Unscented Baby Wipes

This is actually called Parent's Choice, not Parents's.
My husband and I started buying these even before I knew I was pregnant. We use them in the bathroom and find them to be very effective. They're the perfect size and can be folded over several times to reuse the same one before needing another one. I also like that there's no added fragrances, as I feel like putting those kind of chemicals in such a sensitive area is totally unnecessary.

I find the Equate brand Maxi Super pads to be very effective and cheap. They could stand to be a little bit longer, but they are my go to staple. They don't give me any irritation like the Always and other name brand pads that use too much chemicals. I also like the packaging as I find it easy to roll up a used one in a new wrapper before tossing it in the trash. -

These are very cheap compared to the name brand pantiliners and I find them to do the same kind of job. The only thing I wish to change on these liners is that I wish the sticky part went from edge to edge, instead of just in the middle. It would just make it easier to stay put instead of sometime curling up or down on the corners.
I've switched to the long version of these pads as I find the regular to not be large enough for me (I am an average size woman, but I find that my period isn't contained to just one little area, it generally goes back a bit further).
I also like that I don't get any kind of irritation from using these as I do with the Always brand of pantiliners and pads. Also, unscented is the only way to go! It is really bad for you to have those perfumed pads close to your private area all day.

I received one container for my baby shower. I like the look of them, but they only hold about 70 wipes I think. The shape and thin size is handy for the diaper bag and taking to the office, as one reviewer said she does. I usually buy the Parent's Choice cheaper wipes and I don't mind their container although it is bulky.
So I'm a little undecided if I would pick one of these up again. Maybe if it was on sale for $2, any more than that and I wouldn't bother with it. I think you get more bang for your buck with generic wipe containers or at least name brand in bulk.

COVERGIRL LashBlast Fusion Mascara
I find this works better to give me volume and length compared to the old orange tube. I don't find that this clumps, but I do have an older packaging so maybe they've changed the formula? I've never heard of anyone complaining about this clumping... +
I find this works better to give me volume and length compared to the old orange tube. I don't find that this clumps, but I do have an older packaging so maybe they've changed the formula? I've never heard of anyone complaining about this clumping. I bought it after it was recommended as 15 Minute Beauty's favourite mascara. My current one is expired and I do plan to go out and purchase this again. -

I find this works very well to give my lashes more volume. Granted, they're pretty full to begin with, but this does noticeably improve them. Using this product also never produces clumps, although I still always use a brush on my lashes to separate... +
I find this works very well to give my lashes more volume. Granted, they're pretty full to begin with, but this does noticeably improve them. Using this product also never produces clumps, although I still always use a brush on my lashes to separate some strands. I've now traded up from this one to the purple mascara wand which I believe delivers volume and length. -

I stopped using the hydrating cleanser and am now using the foaming facial cleanser as I have oily combination skin and found that this just wasn't helping at all with oil build up.
That being said, I would recommend this cleanser to anyone with a normal or dry complexion. It's very hydrating, has fewer ingredients in it than more expensive and chemically treated cleansers. It is a bit pricey considering the amount you get, but a little does go a long way. My bottles generally last for 5 months approximately with twice daily use. I also found that it does remove makeup, but not as well as my Loreal brand which is specially designed for makeup removal.

I will never again buy Always pads. They are produced with too many chemicals and for those women that have more sensitive vulvas, these will irritate you. They do work efficiently, but I found that I would get a little red down there and be sensitive to the touch even with frequent changing.
I go to a pelvic physiotherapist to try to treat my vaginismus and she told me her instructor in class informed her and the other students, "Always, never!" Always uses too many chemicals to make their products work efficiently. You're safer to use the more generic brands, which has less chemicals going into it than the name brands. Even better, if you can afford it or find it, use the 100% cotton unbleached pantiliners and pads.
