Dove Men + Care Deep Clean Purifying Grains Body & Face Bar
I find the scent a bit strange and sort of spicy smelling, neither hubby or I were a fan of the scent or the grains. Cleaning wise it does a good job and leaves the skin nice and soft with a reduction in oil, but the rest just weren't for me.

When it comes to cuteness, these mini sticky notes have got it in the bag (or box), but unfortunately when it comes to being sticky notes, they don't work too well. The sticky section on the bottom of the cats, doesn't really stick well and the note falls off fairly quickly when compared to brand name sticky pads.
Worse than that though, is the lack of instructions for assembly. Even after figuring out (without instructions) that the white square included was a double sided sticky pad, I couldn't figure out how to assemble the box and make it stay together. Even the pictoral instructions here in the product listing didn't help me much. As a result I ended up tossing the 'boxes' and sticking the noted themselves (With the included sticky pad that kept them stuck to the box) on the edge of my computer monitor.
It really is a shame because even though they are very small (MINI sticky notes), the kittens are too adorable to resist, with each kitten having different colors and personalities shown in the design. Unfortunately they just don't work well as sticky notes and they definitely need instructions for assembly.
SUMMARY
********************************************
Pros
+ So so cute.
+ Different cat designs and personalities.
Cons
- Don't stick well.
- No instructions to assemble the boxes.
- Very small (take note of the size)

A tie case is the kind of thing that I never really thought I would need (for my husband), and to be honest, after having used this one, I still can't imagine myself ever needing one. This tie case works perfectly well, looks nice, and does a good job, but it really does seem to solve a very minor issue.
The case itself is sturdy and marked with a tie symbol, so it's easy to identify. It zips easily and has a strap inside to help keep ties in place. There's also a small pouch where you can put extra, like tie clips or cufflinks. I was able to fold some ties inside and it seemed to work just fine, keeping them neat.
Sadly this case does not come with any instructions on how to best fold the ties inside, so doing it for the first time involved a lot of trial and error. By the time I finally got a tie to sit neatly inside, I had wasted several minutes. So if you already know how to use this kind of product, and if you travel a lot with a number of ties, and need something to keep them all neat, then I think this product is perfect for you. I think it's really best suited to a businessman who travels a lot.
********************************************
Pros
+ Cushioned lining
+ Straps hold ties in place
+ Zippered pouch for cufflinks
Cons
- No instructions for how to best fit ties.
- Struggled to fit ties neatly without causing them to crumple.

This is my absolute favourite of the jewellery I received from this company. I actually think it looks more expensive than it is and I didn't think I'd like it this much. It's cute and the turtle design gives it a nice touch of whimsy. The large gem on the turtle's back is set well and fits perfectly and is extremely sparkly.
I like that the chain is chunkier and thicker than you usually see. As a plus size lady, I found that the larger design suited me better and wasn't too overwhelming, but if you are fine-boned it might not suit you as well. It's also a good length of chain, hanging at the perfect height for me.
Overall, I found this necklace to be good quality with a good chain length, nice and sparkly and a super cute design!
********************************************
Pros:
+ Good Chain Length.
+ Suitable for plus size.
+ Whimsical, cute turtle design.
+ Nice and sparkly.
+ Good quality, no flaws or problems with the setting.
Cons:
- Might be too big or overbearing for some.

This is a very strange situation for me to be in. I review a lot, but I've never EVER seen a product that blatantly isn't what is described and not a single other person has noticed.
These are a single string of lights, NOT net lights. Upon contacting the maker I was told they can be connected to make a net of lights. However, this is not true either. The lights can be connected end to end, none of which would make lights like those shown in all of the pictures on this product listed (a wide, diamond interconnected 'net' light set). Even untangling the 'twisted' style wire on these string lights does not make a diamond net pattern. As you can plainly see in the picture, it shows a net of completely connected wires with lights at the diamond intervals.
Simply put, there is no way they are the same lights shown in the picture.
Now, if you're looking for a single, simple set of multi-color string lights with eight flashing patterns, these do a good job (though the plug and mode setting is quite cheap plastic), but if you're looking for a net of lights, these are not it.
********************************************
Pros:
+ Multiple 'flashing' settings as well as a static setting.
+ More Lights can be connected end to end.
Cons:
- Blatantly misleading listing.
- Pictures do not match product sent.
- No way to make net of lights as shown.

Has a nice smell, but it is a bit overpowering. This really didn't seem to make a difference to my already thick hair, so maybe it's meant more for those with thin hair. I hate products that are labelled as 'youth' since I don't really think your hair needs to look younger. Overall I wasn't really impressed with the sample I used of this. Just so so. -

Nice fresh, slightly masculine smell and the soap works just as well as other Dove soaps. Leaves the skin soft rather than drying it like some soaps do. Good price, but I wish the smell would last a bit longer on my husband, it seems to fade a little quickly. -
TRESemmé® Anti-Frizz Smoothing Crème
As always with Tresemme, good value and a good size, but didn't work for my hair. Left it greasy and not very nice. It's possible this is because I have only wavy hair and it might work better on extreme curls. Smells nice though.
