I bought this item for $9.99 from Well.ca after hearing about how good it is for your skin. Apparently it's even better than the much praised Jojoba oil. It is high in anti-oxidants and said to be good for moisturizing.
It works wonders and I love it. I wear it at night and wake up to such soft and supple skin. My face feels so good after using this. I've been using it for a month now and will need to get a new bottle soon. I have dry skin and this is amazing. I use it at night to give it a chance to seep into my skin. I use Jojoba oil and a moisturizer during the day.
The marula oil has not caused any acne breakouts and it's so easy to apply and lightweight and the scent is mild but pleasing.
I will have to ensure I always have this fully stocked at home.
Love it!!

I use this soap in my routine in the morning. The soap is made with natural ingredients. It does leave my face feeling smooth and clean. I have dry skin so I do apply moisturizer after cleaning my face.
I like the smell of this product too. I also have acne prone skin and this has not irritated my skin or caused me to break out.
I would have liked the soap to be in a different holder. The tin it comes in, after a few uses, the soap starts to stick to the metal and makes it hard to use. I sort of pick a piece off now when I go to use it.
So other than the way it is packaged, the price and the effectiveness and the ingredients makes this soap worthwhile to me.

I started using this product about a month ago and have bought so many tubs for myself and my family since.
This is way better than regular cream cheese. It's light and fluffy and tastes so good on a bagel. I tried regular cream cheese once after buying this and it felt like it was too thick and too much.
This is my go to from now. We're obsessed.

I used to have oily skin but now it seems to be so dry. I have found that putting jojoba oil on my face and then my moisturizer has helped so much. It makes my skin feel moisturized for the whole day whereas before I would have to reapply my cream.
I also put a small amount before bed to wake up looking fresh.
I also use it on the rest of my body. I would highly recommend this product. Of course, it's always best to do a small test on your skin before fully committing.

I recieved the nude by nature perfecting primer to try. I have never used any nude by nature products before but have been trying to use more natural products so I was pleased to give this a try.
I like the smell of this product, it's light and doesn't have an overpowering scent. For those who are not fond of an earthy smell, the smell does dissipate after a while so it shouldn't be too much of an issue, but again for me, I liked the scent. This primer goes on smooth and moisturizes the face well. I would not use too much, just the right amount works well.
It did not hide all the imperfections on my face. My foundation went on well over this primer, which is what I would expect.
It didn't seem to prolong the wear of my makeup too significantly but the moisturizing aspect and the fact that the ingredients are beneficial for my face makes this primer better than most.
I may give this a go again because of how my face felt but at this moment I can't say it will become my ultimate primer because it didn't smooth out all my imperfections.

These cookies were my second favourite, the coconut ones being my first. I liked the amount of chocolate in this cookie. I didn't find the oatmeal to be overpowering or take away from the overall taste. These are a bit crumbly though so it can be messy for kids to eat. But it didn't stop everyone in my home from eating these cookies. -

The coconut flavour was very strong which we like, because we love anything coconut. If you don't, this may not be for you. This pack went fast in our house.

My family enjoyed these wafers. The vanilla flavour was delicious, a little bit too sweet but overall enjoyable. The size was perfect, it would've been even better if the calories weren't so high but it's a special snack and not meant to be healthy so it's expected. We went through this pack pretty fast. -

I currently use Nestle Good Start 2 for my 13 month old. She loves it and has no issues digesting this product.
I was pleased to try this Stage 3 product I got in the mail. This can is a bit smaller than the Start 2 can I use. This new can is only 680 g and even the measurements for making the bottle are a bit different. The Start 2 uses 1 scoop for every 60 ml of water while the stage 3 takes 200 ml for 4 scoops.
The texture does also seem slightly courser.
As for how my daughter reacted, she drank it as usual and had no issues digesting this product either. She's the type to refuse anything she doesn't like, she did not refuse this formula.
When I move on from the Start 2 can, I may consider buying this product for my daughter since I like the Nestle Good start brand.
