Becel® Vegan margarine

Find this has an awful aftertaste and as others have mentioned, left a weird sensation in my mouth. I suppose going vegan takes some sacrifices, but I don't envy my friend having to eat this and I'll definitely bring my own margarine to her house next time I'm over (politely with her permission) -
Sharefashion Strawberry Love Wings Locket Necklace for Aromatherapy Essential Oil Fragrance Diffuser

Sometimes you order jewellery online and it doesn't look as nice when it arrives, but I'm happy to say that this necklace looks exactly as pictured! I don't plan to use it for the 'aromatherapy' options at this stage, I just really loved how it looked so I'm glad that it ships with options to use it both ways.
It comes with several soft fuzzy balls that can be infused with different oil options so you don't have to mix scents (and they are colour coded to boot!), but it also comes with a bell charm in a light turquoise for those who don't want to use the fabric balls. Furthermore, you can really put any stone or gem that's small enough in side, so if you have a small rock collection, you can customise this!
I love the design of this, but it's also great quality for the price. The catch on it is a proper hinged catch that can be swung open to access the interior of the heart cage locket, so it's not going to fall apart like some cheap, shoddily made catches. It also means it stays closed correctly.
Be aware that this necklace is very long! I'm plus size (thus a thicker neck size) and this hangs right at mid-breast height. You can always adjust it and leave a longer chain at the back though, if you need to make it shorter. I personally find that it's a good height for a chunky 'statement' piece like this!
SUMMARY
********************************************
Pros
+ Comes with an assortment of aromatherapy balls that you can infuse with oil (oil not included).
+ Comes with a bell charm option as well.
+ Good quality, not shoddily made.
+ Hinged catch means it can be opened easily and closed correctly and well.
+ Very customisable.
Cons
- Noise of the bell might annoy some people.

As a beginner to clay sculpting, I can't really comment on whether these are suitable for professional use, I'm a hobbyist and don't use them for professional sculpting. However, I can comment on the quality as I found it and I was very happy with these tools. The wooden handles are durable and comfortable to hold with no splinters or cracking and you get a great array of ends.
Do be careful with them as they are (for obvious reasons) sharp on the end, so definitely for adults and not suitable for very young children to use with clay. Older children will be ok with supervision, but definitely be aware certain ends are sharp to cut away the clay.
I'm having a lot of fun exploring this new hobby and like the different patterns, textures and cuts that these tools can give me. Being able to get a beginner's clay sculpting tool kit at this price point is awesome and I'm hoping that these tools will last me a good time before having to upgrade.
SUMMARY
********************************************
Pros
+ Seem to be good quality.
+ Durable and comfortable to hold handles.
+ No wood splitting or splinters.
+ Different ends on the tools, lots of different options.
+ Great price point for a beginner's kit.
Cons
- Ends can be sharp, so take care.

TRESemmé® Keratin Smooth System Heat Activated Treatment
My hair hates Tresemme. Everytime I get a sample it's with renewed hope only to be let down. This left my hair greasy and limp. I have short hair, so maybe it would work better on long hair. I also found the smell to be off-putting.

Lindt Chocolates
A little taste of heaven. Can be quite sickening if you eat too many, but one or two and they are absolutely perfect. Make a great xmas gift, especially if you have a Lindt outlet nearby for a good sale!

Not really much of an Apple fan these days due to their overpricing and obvious use of planned obsolence. iTunes itself is not a bad player, but far too complicated for those who are not tech savvy and has an annoying number of updates.

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of the 'wobble' design of this lamp, but I can't fault it for that as it's exactly as described and shown. If, like me, you hate the wobbling you can remove the lower rounded panel and sit it on the flatter base.
The light colours on this lamp are nice and soft and pretty. You have a low light setting, a brighter setting and a 'colour change' setting that cycles through different colours and you simply tap the lamp to change the setting.
It doesn't come with batteries, but it does have the option of being plugged in via the USB cable. I did find the 'tap' method to be a little different than described and found I had to press with my whole hand to activate it. It turns on quickly, but there is a slight delay after tapping before it changes 'light setting'.
Overall though, it's a cute and functional nightlight for anyone who wants a wobbly mushroom lamp! I like it, but I don't love it. If you're a fan of this design, chances are you will.
SUMMARY
********************************************
Pros
+ Comes exactly as pictured, works as promised.
+ Different light settings.
+ Soft silicone shade.
+ Soft lighting colours are pretty.
+ Option for batteries or to use via USB.
Cons
- Wobble bottom wasn't to my taste.
- Delay between touch and response.

This design is very cool, because in my house we have both Android and Apple products, so having one cable that can easily do both is a big benefit. The most important thing with a lightning cable, though, is speed and this cable charges well at a good speed.
I tested this with several Android devices and an apple and haven't had any problems with it whatsoever. I like that it has a braided/wrapped cable as my cats are very tempted by thin cables and don't bother chewing ones that are wrapped like this. It also helps protect the wire from bending too far and breaking.
I'm also a fan of pink, so overall this is just the perfect cable for me!
SUMMARY
********************************************
Pros
+ Good speed.
+ Wire is protected by braiding.
+ Pink!
+ Can easily be used with Android or Apple products.
Cons
- No problems with it!

Oral-B Complete Satin Floss Mint
This is the only floss I can fit between my close-set teeth! Until I upgraded to a water flosser I used this regularly and would recommend it to anyone with close together teeth. Lovely fresh minty taste too.

Chapters Indigo
Love their homeware and novelty items. They are a little overpriced on everything but books...but if you can get a good sale, it's more than worth making a stop there!
