Kirkland laundry detergent pods

Bye bye more expensive brands, I'm a convert. My husband and I are very athletic so we produce a ton of sweaty, stinky athletic clothing each week. These pods work just as great as the brand name ones that we've tried, so why pay more?
1 tip I have is that if you want some extra white clothing, you'll need to use an additional product. This is soley a laundry detergent.

Vaseline Intensive Care Men Repairing Moisture Fast Absorbing Body & Face Lotion

My husband's got darker skin that gets ashy when he doesn't moisturize, yet he hates most lotions because they take "too long" (according to his expectations) to absorb so he feels like he just slopped on tanning oil. I think he's a bit of a drama queen on that, but once I started buying this one for him, he's been so happy. The lotion absorbs quickly, smells great and stops him from complaining. :)
I need to confess that I actually use this one as well. I don't find the scent extremely masculine or overpowering so I'm perfectly fine with not needing to buy multiple bottles of lotion to sit around our house.

Ray Ban RB3025 Aviator Sunglasses

I am in love with the Ray Ban blue polarized sunglasses. The model number is RB3025 and I can't seem to put them down. If you've never tried on polarized sunglasses, you're missing out because your eyes will thank you when it's super sunny or even overcast.
I'm Asian and I have small nose ridge and these frames have very customizeable nosepads so I had no problem there. My other major problem is that most frames (especially the solid plastic ones) give me a headache after a few minutes. I'm sensitive to pressure points on the side of my head from glasses and headbands. These frames are so light that I sometimes forget that they're on until I walk inside.
Fashion wide, the brushed gold frame with the beautiful mirrored blue polarized lenses are very very flattering for all skin tones.

I've tried a few dry shampoo brands and this Batiste one is probably my baseline for all of them. It does the job, but if you have dark hair (black or dark brown) consider buying the one for Dark hair because this one will leave a bit of a grey cast on your hair in the sunlight if you go out right afterwards.
If you mistakenly buy the wrong one for your dark hair, my tip would be to put this on before bedtime so that the product has more time to settle into your hair. If you still find a grey cast in your hair (even if you've brushed through it), consider using the product before your nightly shower, that'll help.

Kind Fruit and Nut Bars
I absolutely love the Coconut Almond Kind Bars. If you like a chewy granola bar, I'd highly recommend this one.

For a loose powder foundation, this one is incredible. It's buildable and feels super light. It wears for 12 hours well for normal skin if you finish with the mineral veil powder.
I find that I need to put on some extra moisturizer and not forget the primer if I'm wearing this foundation in the winter because it sits in any fine lines or enlarged pores you may have.
I'd still buy this again though, this is the only foundation that cause me to break out and over time my skin has actually started to look better so I'm using less product in general.

I've tried a few other brands and I can't say this is my favourite one, but it does the job. Generally, I'm fine with going with the cheapest scent boosting product as long as I don't have any allergic reactions to it. So far so good with Purex products and their price point is much better than some of the other more popular brands out there.
Do people really care if they get the most popular scent boosters? I like the smell of fresh laundry, but I wash my clothes quite often and I tend to wear perfume sometimes so the only time scent boosters matter to me are with my sports gear. This one works great, the scent doesn't stay for "weeks" like other brands promise, but that also means that the product doesn't have an overpowering smell like you sprayed on a bottle of Axe. This product has a good balance if you want an average amount of time for scent staying power and clean clothes.

Adopted a stray cat recently and we wanted to do right by him. We tried a number of foods and compared quality of ingredients in all of them. Hands-down the Kirkland brand had the best balance in quality of ingredients and price point. We were perfectly fine with sticking with Nutrience or the Pet Valu store brand, but once we compared the ingredients, we were happy with what Kirkland offered.
We had a vet check up recently our Maximus went from being extremely malnourished with a bit of a skin condition to a healthy cat. I don't know how much of this was due to the food, but I'm going to say that the food didn't hurt him. :)
I can't really comment if your cat will like it because mine isn't picky, but my neighbour tried this brand with her picky cat and she's now sold as well.
