I used Dickinson’s witch hazel as my daily toner for over 20 years. After I moved from L.A. to Canada, I had trouble finding it so I switched to this. I’ve finally stopped looking for Dickinson’s because I like this one so much.
It comes in a number of different scents, plus regular and alcohol-free (witch hazel doesn’t generally have isopropyl alcohol added but does create a form of alcohol in the process of extracting it)… I prefer the alcohol-free type because I have very dry skin so removing the naturally-occurring alcohol makes it even gentler on my dry skin.
I love this witch hazel, even if it is a bit pricey, and I highly recommend it!

Oral-B Complete Deep Clean Ultra Floss

I've used this floss for most of my life… until they discontinued it, that is. It’s a soft, woven floss that gets at everything, everywhere. It helped me get perfect dental check-ups—it kept my teeth clean and my gums healthy.
Now stores keep Super Floss on their shelves as if they are the same floss—even customer service at Oral-B is under the mistaken impression they’re the same… They are not.
Super Floss is stiff, hard, and is made for braces, not teeth.
Ultra Floss is soft, pliable, and made for the tight spaces between your teeth—and between your teeth and gums. Let Oral-B and your favorite stores know you want Ultra Floss, not Super Floss.

Shu Uemura Ultime8 Sublime Beauty Cleansing Oil

I’m an upper arm amputee, and when I cut the package open, the oil ended up on the scissors, the countertop, the packaging… and mostly on the floor.
I tried it once with what was left in the package. It smelled nice, fresh, and maybe a bit citrusy. Not too perfume-y, so that’s a point in its favor.
I have dry skin, so I thought it would work well on my face, but it has a slight soapiness that I don’t like in a facial cleanser—the suds tend to be drying.
If they ever made a cream version of this, I’d try it in a heartbeat, but the oil cleanser is not for me.

I liked the lemony taste of this Ratio bar, and the pumpkin seeds were a nice touch, which I quite liked. The texture of it was a bit odd—kind of flakey and crumbly and a little dry—but it didn't get in the way of the great taste. I'll definitely buy them, but I may wait until they're on sale!! -

I just bought a pair of blue- and cream-striped sleep pants from Joe Fresh and absolutely LOVE them! They're made from rayon, so they hang really nicely, don't stretch and feel so smooth. They're long enough for my 32" inseam—which is unusual in women's pants—and they're very light and comfortable.
The only drawback is that they're a bit big. I bought a Medium, but should have bought a Small. They're also a bit high-waisted for my taste. These are the only reasons I didn't give them 5 stars for Lust Factor.
I will buy another pair, happily, but I'll get a Small next time!
