I'm a huge fan of Bumble & Bumble products and I've been trying to find cheaper alternatives to all my hair products cause it's starting to get pretty expensive. I received a sample of this in the mail to try. Unfortunately, this is no where close to what I'm used to. The actual application is with your hands, leaving a greasy mess. And once it's in your hair, it gives it a nice shine, although somewhat greasy looking. This is just not for me. -

I was skeptical putting this in the machine because of the way it needs to disperse through my laundry. I'm using a HE (high efficiency) laundry machine and the packet said that it dissolves in all temperatures - so I gave it a try. Unfortunately, due to the delicacy of my clothes (and some were knit/wool), I put the settings on hand wash - which means it won't toss around my clothes vigorously. After washing, my clothes didn't smell clean - I don't think it worked very well for these settings ... which is unfortunate. -

I didn’t buy the trio - just the single stick (Amber). What I love about this shade is the cool/grey tone that is perfect for contouring. It creates amazing shadows.
The actual application is not as quick and easy as I’d like. I can contour my face directly, but I need to blend it with my hands (to first warm up the product) and then a brush. I have warm undertones, so if I don’t blend it out properly, sometimes it can look muddy.
I love the packaging, but I just wish it had more product (esp for the price). If you roll up the entire stick, you’ll realize it’s not a full tube - and personally, I’ve been going through the stick pretty quickly.

The shades are beautiful but not very moisturizing on the lips. I always get more chapped lips after using this. Even though each stick has a lot of product / a little goes a long way, it’s pretty pricey

I am in love with this protein bar ! It's hard to like protein bars sometimes because of the grit and rough texture but this bar has none of that. I feel like I'm just eating a regular tasty granola bar. There is the perfect amount of grains/chunks and it isn't too sweet either. -

I tried to Lemon Zest flavour and my first impression is that I don't hate it - but I also don't love it. As a nutritional snack, they're great. Great to have for pre-post work outs and even as a snack during the day. My favourite nutritional (healthy) bar is still The Simply Bar. -

Westjet must have recently partnered with with MadeGood recently because they are now serving these granola bars as snacks on their flights ! (When I flew with them in Aug 2017, I don’t remember seeing these yet). I am so happy they are now serving health conscious, healthy snacks that are delicious too !! It’s not too sweet and doesn’t taste fake/plastic-y like some of the cookies/pretzels they serve. -

I was so unbelievably upset when Benefit decided to discontinue their Gimme Brow - it was my absolute go to since it was literally swipe and go. What I loved about it was that it didn't have a wet formula (like the brow mascaras or gels) and you can brush the product through as you applied it. I've tried so many different products to substitute, but either the color options were too limited or the formula was too wet. I am so glad I came across Boy Brow - it is similar to Gimme Brow, and lets me do the swipe and go. You don't get a lot of product, but at the same time, a little goes a long way. The only thing is that I wish it was available for purchase in person (i.e. in a Sephora store) so I don't have to pay extra for shipping, and I wish they had a grey option. -

I am personally not at an age where I need to be thinking about wrinkles that much - although it's always good to get a head start cause these things will just hit you like that ! I got a sample of this through Sephora and I have to say that I am not a big fan. The one thing I didn't like about it is the texture / the feel of the product. It was almost plastic-y and felt weird on my face. Once I get over that, the product works great though. -

I've been travelling a lot lately between warm and cold weather and it's absolutely destroying my skin. When I was in Toronto, there was a sudden drop in temperature and it got very windy, making my skin very dry - to the point where it was almost painful. I used this serum underneath my regularly moisturizer and it absolutely made a huge difference. This is a great every day serum ! Lightweight and moisturizing !! -
