OMG...I need this container to be larger because this ice-cream is delicious. When I first opened the container I promised myself that I would only have a couple spoonfuls...yeah right! I ended up eating half the container, it was irresistible I couldn't stop eating it. It had the perfect amount of cherries and I loved that. I'm usually left wanting more but with this ice-cream it had plenty. I do wish there were more chocolate chunks in it though. In addition to being yummy it's also 100% Canadian dairy, made with real cream and is peanut/nut/egg free. I can't wait to try more of the flavours in this premium line. -

The packaging is very pleasant to look at however not as easy to use as a typical Gillette shave gel. I found I was fumbling it around in the shower trying to get the pump to work. It's an okay Shave gel with no fragrance and it didn't cause any irritation. That being said I'll most likely stick to using my usual gel. This one just doesn't have the lather that I'm looking for. -

This razor is fabulous to look at and I love how it comes with 3 extra blades. The weight is really heavy making it a very sturdy razor and the shave is impeccable. It gets even the hard to reach areas and is an ultra smooth shave its a fabulous razor! That being said I found it extremely slippery and hard to hold onto. I dropped it numerous times in the shower because it kept slipping out of my hands. -

My little one is almost 2 with all of her baby teeth and we were looking for a way to get her interested in brushing her teeth. With the typical manual toothbrush she usually just bites the bristles off the brush. She loves this battery powered brush and lets us brush her teeth with it as long as she gets to use it afterwards to try and brush herself. It’s a strong vibration but not overpowering. I also like that it has a button to turn it on and a button to turn it off. This is a great teaching tool to teach my daughter about on and off. I’ve seen a difference in her teeth since we started using this brush. The brush handle is perfect for little hands and very easy for my daughter to use. The brush head is also perfect for tiny mouths and the bristles are very soft. The battery is also fantastic. The first day we gave it to my daughter she had it going for a good 15 minutes and I thought for sure she was going to ruin the battery. Luckily she didn’t and the battery is just as high powered as when we got it. -

We’ve been using these as a family. They’re perfect in the bath or when we soak our feet after a long day. Both my son and husband live these salts as well. When they used them they found their feet were much smoother and exfoliated. I’m in love with the smell and after using these salts I felt more calm, relaxed and my feet felt great. Plus black elderberry is supposed to make your skin feel rejuvenated so this is an added bonus. Will definitely purchase again once mine runs out. -

The moment I opened this bottle I was nearly knocked over by the delicious scent. I love the scent! When using for my bath I didn’t use too much product and still had lots of bubbles that lasted quite some time. So this item has great value for the money. My bath was so refreshing and calming from using this product. Black Elderberry is supposed to be very good for you and have
anti-inflammatory effects. It’s also great at making your skin feel rejuvenated and healthier. Because this product contains Epsom salts I also found that it helped with my sore knee. The one issue I had with this product is that there is no safety seal on the opening. However that isn’t enough to make me not purchase it again. I will definitely purchase when my bottle is done.

When we received the Minnie Mouse Marshmallow Flip-Open 2 in 1 Sofa and Lounger my daughter was immediately intrigued. It was so neat how it shipped compressed and then fills out after you pop open the bag. My daughter is 18 months and just adores this 2-in 1 Sofa and Chair. I can see her using this for years to come. She seems to enjoy having her own little chair. She loves snuggling into the chair to sit and relax while she has a snack, watches TV or we read her a story and loves snuggling into it as a comfy sofa. It’s so cute she likes to grab a blanket and snuggle into the couch/chair. I tried laying on it as well and it really is super comfy, you melt into it and when you get out it pops right back into shape. Somewhat like memory foam. I also like how the slip cover material is very soft. The first day we got it when she got home from daycare the first thing she wanted to do was sit on her sofa and the novelty doesn’t wear off. We got it in the Minnie Mouse character and there are also so many other fun characters to choose from. Since she loves eating on it I really like that the slip cover can be zippered off and washed in the washing machine. When it comes to things for toddlers machine washable is always the best! It’s also super light weight so you can move it from room to room or place to place. The only concern I do have is I have to prop it up against a wall or our couch because she loves to jump and roll on it so if its not propped up against something she goes flying backwards. Once she’s older this won’t be an issue though. My 6 year old son loves it too and wishes it was big enough for him too. It’s so easy to convert from sofa to chair and my daughter has even figured out how to do it herself. Plus it’s holding up wonderfully considering both my daughter and son love jumping and tumbling on it. Lastly I think it’s great that they’ve thought to include graphics in all areas of the chair, for instance their is even a Minnie Mouse graphic on the side of the chair. -

I tried the Super Stay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipcolor in the colour Lippy (it comes in 10 shades) The very first thing I noticed about this lip colour was the scent. I absolutely love the smell of it, as odd as that might sound. In some way it reminded me of coffee. Don’t ask me why. The second thing I noticed was how easy it was to apply and there was deep colour on my lips upon the first coat. Additional coats weren’t needed. This lip colour boasts 16 hour wear and let me tell you it delivers this promise and more, in a way it delivers this to a fault, I’ll talk about that later. I did find that upon application it did bleed a bit and I also found that the brush was a tiny bit difficult to use, mainly because with the colour bleeding I was trying to be careful how I applied it. I really liked the tube it comes in, it’s quite heavy so it makes you feel like it’s a quality product and it is. I did find that it smudged a bit at first but once it dried I didn’t have this issue. Now onto the 16 hour wear, as mentioned it definitely lasts more than 16 hours. In fact I had difficulty washing it off, at one point after trying to wash it off I touched my forehead and some of this lip colour transferred there and it was even harder trying to scrape it off my forehead. That is my reason for giving it 4 stars it’s just so hard to wash off. Which I guess for some of you this could be a bonus. I will try this product again but most likely not in the same colour. Its a beautiful colour just not my type of lip colour. Then again it’s sometimes good to step out of your comfort bubble. -
