I wouldn’t recommend this for normal or oily hair simply because it’s so intense that it can leave hair feeling kind of weird and looking a bit greasy (even though it’s actually not). That being said, since it’s recommended for damaged or dry hair, most people will understand that it’s not something you use if your hair is fine and the effects will last a bit past the initial wash.
I’m sure some folks are wondering if there is enough in here for long thick hair and the answer is yes! I have short hair and there was a ton, when fully emptied, the mask contains enough for super long, thick hair (which I used to have) and shorter hair could get multiple uses if they are willing to fold the bag over and clip it shut.
It made my hair super hydrated, but it felt strange and looked greasy afterwards very quickly, probably because my hair is not super dry or damaged. The consistency I didn’t enjoy. It felt and looked like cream cheese and had a weird smell. It also made the bathtub so slippery I was afraid to fall, so take care when using this.
Overall, it definitely hydrates hair, but is perhaps best for those with very dry, damaged hair and all hair types should be careful to avoid a fall when using it!

Seventh Generation™ Free & Clear Natural Liquid Laundry Detergent

Like the ‘pod’ version of this detergent, I loved it. I’m not sensitive to scents, but I do have a strong sense of smell and find many things are overscented. It’s especially a pain with laundry detergent, as I sleep with the covers up at my nose and any strong smell annoys me when trying to sleep. So I love, love, love that this is totally scentless.
Many ‘scent-free’ products have a weird smell (presumably from the ingredients), but this leaves your clothes and blankets smelling like absolutely nothing, something I really enjoy. I don’t consider us a ‘stain-heavy’ household and we haven’t had any problems with stains left behind while using this. It seems to be as good as my usual brand!

If you’re looking for a lubricant that feels more natural, this is definitely the one. My main problems with lubes so far has been stickiness or that they absorb too quickly, this one shares none of those issues. In terms of feel and texture it feels a lot like the natural lubrication of a woman.
The benefit of this is it’s really long-lasting, but it can also be a con, depending on what you’re looking for. It’s definitely harder to wipe up or wash off (like the real thing), so that might not be ideal for everybody. However, I thought it was great. No noticeable smell, lasts long and feels natural, I’d definitely use it again!

Hill's Science Diet - Adult - Multiple Benefit Dry Cat Food - Chicken

This does contain corn/grain, so while it’s not the best to get if your cat has an allergy or sensitivity, for regular cats it contains everything they need. Our three cats have really loved the other Hill’s foods they got and since we started them on this new one, we haven’t noticed any problems. They still have shiny coats, regular cat breath (though improved from their cheaper food) and seem happy to eat as much as they can.
Since all of our cats have different body types (one mid-weight, one obese and currently losing and one really skinny one) this food seems ideal for them. I like that the ‘zip-lock’ closure is the new-fangled type that closes way better than actual zipper type closures, meaning you don’t have to worry about freshness, or it spilling.
If our cats are happy with this, I’m happy and they love this one as much as the other! I also like that meat is high up in the ingredient list.

Didn’t think I would like this much at first as the floral scent is kind of cloying, but thankfully once on the scent becomes very mild. Despite being super subtle on, it does cover any less pleasant smells and lasts easily the whole day (as always with 48 hours, they last about 24, but there’s no need for more than that).
I would buy this again, but probably in a different smell, I wasn’t a huge fan of the floral, but you pretty much expect that kind of scent from the description.

Really impressed with this. It works as well as my non-natural brand with one very important (to me, at least) difference. No scent. As in, you wash your clothes with this and it comes out smelling like NOTHING. It’s pretty cool and makes you realise how much you actually enjoy it. I frequently have trouble with products being over-scented, especially when it comes to washing my bedclothes. Even a pleasant scent can leave me struggling to sleep because it’s all up in my nose. So I was really appreciative that this left my stuff smelling clean, but with literally no smell.
Other than that, it did not have any issues tackling my usual stains. I’ve also had issues in the past with ‘pod’ style laundry detergent not dissolving properly and staining my clothes. Since this is white coloured, no problems with that and it also dissolved well every time, even in heavy loads.
I think this is a great option for those willing to pay extra for a good, natural clean that doesn’t leave scent behind.

Nexxus products have been hit or miss for me in the past, but I did like this one. As someone who has more grey/silver/white hair than brown at the moment, I often use blonde shampoos and conditioners when I feel like bringing out my white more. I found that toning shampoos like this one not only make my grey/white stand out more, but they make it more on the white side of the spectrum and tone out the dirtier/blonder strands more. The Blonde Assure had this effect as well.
If you have mixed hair and are using it, just be aware it will make the ‘aged’ parts or ‘blonde’ parts stand out more against your other colour. I like this effect, but not all will. Other than that, it left my hair really nice and shiny. The only negative is it also left my short hair really fuzzy. It’s fine if I use it with a heavy conditioner, but I’d rather it didn’t leave my hair fuzzy, obviously.
It has a very strong, perfumed scent that isn’t unpleasant, but will definitely bother those with sensitive noses!

Skintimate Scented 3 Blade Disposable Razor For Women - Coconut Delight

Firstly let me say, scented razors are absolutely a scam. A scam I’m sure women pay more for, on top of the ‘pink’ tax levied in female razors. One, why would you need razors to be scented when you use shaving foam/gel with them and two, these really didn’t smell at all once I was shaving with them.
Here’s the thing though; it’s a pretty decent razor. It’s certainly comparable to other Razors with 3 blades, better than some of them. My experience with it is that it didn’t shave as well as a four or more blade razor, but still did a pretty good job.
I would definitely buy it, just don’t buy it because of the ridiculous scent.

I did like this conditioner a lot. I used it alongside a shampoo which has a tendency to make my hair fuzzy and it really calmed that down. After using this (compared to the shampoo alone) my hair was noticeably much softer to the touch, had a lot less fuzz and also had a nice shine to it. It didn’t make my hair greasy faster as some conditioners are wont to do.
The texture of the conditioner itself is quite light and doesn’t feel thick and greasy like some conditioners. It rinses out easily and quickly. The smell is quite strong and initially very pleasant, almost like a candy smell, but when you rub it between your hands it gets the standard conditioner ‘chemical’ smell. Still, it doesn’t leave a weird scent on your hair and I was happy with the effect it had!

I was both impressed and surprised that this natural wood cleaner works as well as my own brand. I personally prefer a wood ‘polish’, but the great thing about this cleaner is that it’s basically multi-purpose. While it’s listed for wood, it can be used on so many different kinds of surfaces and cleans them just as well. That means in a pinch, you can use it for most types of cleaning. For those who need a natural product, this is a good one.
I did remove a star for scent. It’s not that it’s bad, but when I’m promised ‘Lemon Garden’ I want it to be pretty lemony. I found this scent was weak and didn’t really smell like lemon. It could be that natural lemon scent is not quite the same as the fake stuff we smell a lot (duh), but I really missed the zesty lemon scent and wished it had that smell.
Overall, though, it’s a great cleaner for both wood and other areas.
