    Purchased their best selling pant (Way High Drape Pant) and am VERY impressed with the quality. While the price point leaves a bit to be desired (especially in Canada) I would definitely purchase another pair.

    Been using Nuud religiously for 2 years, love the packaging and find it works really well.

    As is, it's perfect. Scents would be nice but I think that would defeat the purpose/mess with the formula. The only issue is my user error, I only have to use it about once a week and sometimes forget.

    LOVE the smell, and of course the packaging is bubbly, and visually striking. The smell is like being at a spa, love it especially before yoga.

    The texture itself leaves a little bit to be desired (personal preference) - a bit tacky/soft so I feel the need to 'rub' it in after use.

    Little bit of miscommunication with the order process, but to be expected for what you're ordering and the state of the laws. The customer support team was slow to respond at first but was extremely helpful. The product itself is good so far, the packaging for the products is beautiful but if you want further information you have to go to the website.

    Feedback

    I won't be ordering again until they improve their packing process. The glass jars are great, but if they require a box full of styrofoam peanuts, I do not want them. The information/ingredients on the products themselves isn't cohesive, some items have further info, and others none at all (at least in the Wavy Bundle). Update: 26 May 2022 Customer service followed up w/ me and the peanuts are biodegradable! Gave some feedback on the packaging copy & info. As for the product, have been taking fairly regularly and have gifted some to friends, I can highly recommend taking the time to research micro-dosing and deciding if it's right for you and if you do, def suggest trying their bundles to start.

    Bought the spray for a Thingtesting promotion, arrived in decent time. The spray itself is a bit sticky, but the smell isn't too overpowering. Haven't been able to test the effective-ness of the spf yet (Canadian spring!) but otherwise happy with the product.

    Feedback

    As mentioned previously, it's a bit sticky but once completely dry, its unnoticable.

    I've been purchasing Muji projects for a number of years, for various home items, stationary and even some of their t-shirts. Their travel products are great for one-off uses (as are stationary items), I've been using one of their small plastic boxes for my bobby pins for almost a decade. I exclusively use Muji pens for writing.

    Feedback

    The pricing could do with some improvements, but overall are affordable. Would love to see the container home offered in Canada.

    I got my first pair of GFC leggings when they launched 5 years ago, and they're still going strong. I've bought a few more pieces over the years. Some of their lighter colors don't wear well if you're planning on excessive sweating. Yellow + hot yoga class = cringe of the utmost, however in all they are 'bend-over' proof, long-lasting and come with a great mission.

    Mejuri

    Have bought a few pieces and have also been gifted the square travel case. The necklaces and other pieces have been great so far, a bit more yellow than I'd like but ultimately always get compliments. The rings are unfortunately too small for my hands, so would love to see more sizing in the future. The travel case has been great, but needs to come with a disclaimer that it only keeps necklaces organized during initial packing, if you're bringing 4 or more, by the time you arrive (depending on where placed in your luggage) they will be just as muddled as they would be if you had placed them in a pocket. EDIT 25 APR: Looks like Mejuri has added more sizing. Which is great, too bad for my timing but so it goes. They offer a number of better sizing options now.

    A long time user of the Cloud Paint, I think that Glossier is making a nice little spot for themselves in the DTC space with makeup. I've recently started using the Future Dew, and (when not wearing a mask) it's fabulous. I'd love to see more eco-friendly packaging, but use the pink bubble pouches for travel until the seams come apart. The Boy Brow could use some improvement, but I'm particular, I think depending on your brows and how you style them, is still a strong choice.

    ISM Bags

    After searching for a solid, sleek (and leather) backpack for my travels (and one that could easily hook onto my suitcase) I ditched the Tumi dream and instead went for the ISM bag. I have not looked back. The ISM backpack comes in at a fraction of the price, and ~10 countries later it still looks brand new.

    Personally, I'm not in love with the blue interior accents. I'm a monochrome type, but realistically I hardly ever notice it. The interior space is actually a bit deceptive and can hold more than it looks, but bear in mind it's still a very narrow body. I can take my 13" laptop, iPad, mouse and mousepad in the zippered slot, and still have room for a 140oz water bottle and my plane toiletries. Throw a small sweater in, and that's about it...but realistically all you need for a flight. Depending on the day, I either love or loathe the fact that I can't buy $34 airport candy. 100% worth the purchase.
