Soylent
Experience
Soylent is good for a meal on the go and it works for the macros but I wouldn't use this as a consistent meal replacement. The taste is fine but doesn't beat eating a meal with solid food where chewing is also part of the experience. It's good if you need something quick and is portable but I would only use this once a while and for emergencies.
Feedback
The aftertaste of the product can give a chalky dry mouth feel for some flavors.
Fabletics
Experience
I first encountered this brand when I saw their ad for $24 for 2 leggings. I loved all the different designs they had and especially the ones that had special sizing for short, regular, and tall inseam length. I've had my two leggings for a while and they're great for any activity whether it be outdoor or indoor. For their price point (as a new VIP member), it's the best on the market and I even like it more than their more expensive competitors.
Feedback
The VIP and non-VIP pricing tier is confusing and it's hard for me to sign up for the VIP status because I do not need to buy leggings every month.
Cards Against Humanity
Experience
Fun party game to play with friends! It's a great way to get a group of people together to play something and get the party going. The game is easy to understand and explain. They have many expansion packs so there's a lot to explore. Note that the original game and most of their expansion packs except for the family friend ones are NSFW.
We're Not Really Strangers
Experience
I first stumbled across this brand on tiktok and this has become my go to game It's especially great because the game is so compact so I can tuck it away in my backpack and bring it on the go. The game is easy to understand and is a great way to get to know more about someone whether they are a stranger or your childhood friend!
Studs
Experience
I received a gift from this brand from a friend and I loved the earrings! They were simple yet sleek and had a cute design. It came with a cute lovely little pouch that I also use to stores other earrings in as well.
Feedback
I notice that some of their backings for the studs could be a little tough to loosen so it might be helpful to just take the backs on and off a couple times so it doesn't get stuck.
Muji
Experience
Muji is the best! The prices are affordable and the quality of the products are awesome. I find that a lot of their products have very thoughtful design such as like being able to fit containers together or having a more ergonomic design. Having their products in your home adds a simple sleek look so I would definitely suggest to check them out!
Therabody
Experience
My experience with this brand is using their theragun and it was a great massager! It really helps loosen out any knots you might have and the different heads included also helps gives a different massage experience depending on my need.
Feedback
The price is bit steep for a massage gun and since this brand popularized the product, many other similar products have also entered the market with a more affordable price point.
Liquid I.V.
Experience
It's a compact solution that gives me the boost I need especially when I'm out on hikes or have done some strenuous activity and I need to replenish with some electrolytes. I find that the little packets are really handy to carry around in my backpack so I can make my drink really quickly in my water bottle if need be.
Feedback
My personal favorite is the lemon lime flavor but I hope they come out with more flavors!
Banza
Experience
I honestly do not notice a difference when eating Banza chickpea pasta versus regular pasta. It's great for my macros and I love the extra protein it provides. I also like that this brand is becoming more popular so it's easy to find in a local grocery store. I saw that they are making other products like pizzas so I'm excited to try those too!
Feedback
This is a minor thing but I notice that when I boil the pasta, the pasta water is much thicker and viscous than normal pasta. It doesn't affect taste but note this if you don't immediately drain your water after cooking
Hero Cosmetics
Experience
Works as advertised and please note that the best effect is for blemishes with whiteheads. The size is great and doesn't irritate the skin! I can put the patch on overnight and wake up to a noticeably more clean skin after washing my face with some warm water.
Feedback
The one thing I would note is that the patch will leave a circular imprint on your skin at least for over an hour. It makes sense because the patch needs to stay on for at least a couple of hours but be aware of this when planning to use this product.
