This yogurt is great, and usually on sale when I go to buy it. I buy the bigger containers rather than the little ones and add granola or fruit to it. The flavours on their own are usually fairly boring, but this yogurt has a great versatility and is easy to add to any recipe that requires it. -

I've been using this as my main foundation for a few years now. I have combination skin, and I have acne, so I have to be careful with what I buy. I first got a free sample of it, and have since been buying it for myself. I find this product a little expensive, but it's worth it, because it wears nicely, and doesn't cause me to break out. The formula is consistent, and it covers well without being cakey. I have tried a lot of different products in many different price ranges, and this one does the best job for me. I find it is best applied with a beauty blender or a small brush. -
Nature's Path Love Crunch - Dark Chocolate & Peanut Butter
This granola is great! I love the taste, and you can eat it on it's own or with milk or yogurt. It is quite a small bag, but the price isn't too bad for something that is organic and non-GMO. The only problem I had with this particular flavour was... +
This granola is great! I love the taste, and you can eat it on it's own or with milk or yogurt. It is quite a small bag, but the price isn't too bad for something that is organic and non-GMO. The only problem I had with this particular flavour was that the peanut butter melted right away, and ended up getting all over. The red berries flavour doesn't have this issue. This granola makes a great, healthy snack. -
Nature's Path Love Crunch - Dark Chocolate & Red Berries

I've tried and loved Nature's Path's chocolate peanut butter granola before, and decided to try this one too. I ate the whole bag in one weekend. It is so good. It's like Special K's chocolate and red berries cereal, but with delicious granola instead of cereal. It's great, because this taste's so good and yet it is also organic and non-GMO. I only wish there were a few more berries in there, then it would be perfect! -
St. Ives® Naturally Soothing Oatmeal and Shea Butter Body Lotion

This was my go-to lotion for quite a long time. The scent is so subdued and it is quite hydrating. For the price, it is great. The bottle is huge, and it would last for ages. Unfortunately, it did seem to leave a bit of a residue behind, which was normally okay, but sometimes you could see it on my bed sheets if I wasn't too careful. I still use this as a general hand cream when I need it, but I don't use it regularly like I used to. -
Vitafusion MultiVites Gummy Vitamins

I'm really enjoying these so far! I haven't had them for more than a few weeks, but they taste great and they have a good mix of Vitamins in them. I take these with my hair, skin and nails vitamin and I feel like I'm pretty well covered between the two. They were on sale for $9.99 at London Drugs, and it comes in quite a large container, so I am quite happy with this. I have taken chewable tablets in the past, but I'm not a fan of the texture, so these have been quite perfect for me. -

This matcha is the cheapest kind you can get at David's Tea. If you're planning to bake, or throw your matcha into a smoothie, get this. It's fine, really, but you'll have to sift it first no matter what. You can clearly see the difference between this and the Ceremonial matcha when you make it traditionally. While the Ceremonial has a bright, vibrant colour, this one is a slightly more muted green.
I still buy this product often, but I generally don't drink it on it's own. I mix this into cake mixes, chocolate and into smoothies, and it is absolutely perfect for that job.

David's Tea Ceremonial Matcha

This is the top tier of Matcha available at David's Tea. I love it, but you have to be prepared to make it properly if you truly want to enjoy it. To make matcha properly, you need a whisk or a milk frother, either of these work, and you also need a small sifter. The matcha will clump and if you don't sift it before you make tea, it doesn't matter what the quality is, you'll get a lump of bitter green tea in your mouth.
If made properly, David's Ceremonial Matcha is as good as the Matcha I bought in Kyoto Japan. This tea is a hobby of it's own, however, and you have to be prepared to experience a completely different kind of tea. I recommend picking up this tea when you get a free credit with their points program rather than eating up that cost yourself.

I've been using this moisturizer since I bought the three step program a few years ago. I've since stopped using the other two products, but I've continued using the moisturizer ever since. Most other moisturizers cause me to break out, so when I found one that didn't, I stuck to it. This product has been working great for me, and doesn't leave any greasy residue behind. I only wish it had some SPF in it, so that I don't have to put on sunscreen as well when it is sunny, but I luckily (or unluckily) I live in a place where it is almost always cloudy. I've also noticed it does bleach my towels and pillowcase if I'm not careful, but I probably should just be more mindful of that. -

This stuff is my jam. I've been using Dark Angels for several years now. I have acne prone skin and nothing takes off the dirt and dead skin like Dark Angels does. It has such a soft pleasant scent too, that I love to use it as often as my face allows me too. It's surprisingly gentle. Where some exfoliators feel like they're tearing my face up, this just leaves me feeling soft and smooth. I usually take a small amount of the Dark Angels and slowly add drops of water to it while mixing it in my palm. Once I've made a nice paste with it, I go to town. It makes my fingernails look dirty, but I deal with it. -
