Scent Lab
Experience
The concept is certainly intriguing. Especially when I think about giving it to a friend as a gift (so they can create a candle that best fits their taste). Upon receiving the candle, I could smell its delicious fragrance, even while it was still in the box! It certainly smells great, is in a nice solid container (although the bottom and sides of mine were a bit scratched) and for the price, the size is good. From the way they market it, I thought that I would create my own scent entirely. Essentially, when you fill out the questionnaire, they tell you which of their blends would be a good fit for you. In some ways, this feels the same as picking out a candle scent from any candle company. There are no lack of handmade, soy candles out there, so I'm not sure that I would choose a company that uses AI technology over a small business. Especially at this price point. Also, for the price, I would have loved a lid. All in all, a good experience, but I don't find myself using this again.
Visitor
Experience
I've gotten into the non-alcoholic space quite a lot the last year or so. However, I've leaned more towards the spirits and bitter aperitif options (like Ghia). I've heard that non-alcoholic beer is some of the most authentic tasting options out there. Visitor is the first one I've tried, so I can't necessarily compare it to other brands. What I can say...this is delicious! It's such a crisp, light, refreshing beer. The taste is spot-on and it's very easy to drink. I can't wait to see what else they come up with - I'd definitely be willing to try it.
Graza
Experience
Finally! A delicious olive oil that won't break the bank. I'm a huge fan of differentiating between the "sizzle" and "drizzle". I've always had a hard time finding an olive oil that is good for a drizzle finish- and this one is perfect. Plus, the bottles (although simple) are so easy to use with the twist top. The olive oil tastes great and the design is so fun!
Feedback
I find myself needing to re-purchase the sizzle more often, since I do use that more. I wish that the subscription option included free shipping. You have to purchase 3 of them at a time to avail of the free shipping. If it was only two, I would be able to do that, but purchasing 3 bottles at a time just doesn't make sense to me.
Woolino
Experience
I have no problem spending more on a product if it means saving more money in the long run. Almost $100 for a sleep sack? But considering that most sleep sacks, you have to purchase every few months, and these last for up to 2 years old- it actually saves you money. It's made well and it washes well. We wash it all the time, and there's no pilling or shedding or damage in the slightest. It's easy to put on and off and it definitely signals to my daughter that it's time to sleep.
Cocofloss
Experience
I had a good customer service experience, otherwise I might have just given a 1/5. I love the idea of an eco-friendly flossing experience, they have fun packaging and flavors. However, this was not functional for me in the slightest. I have a few back molars that are a bit tight, so tougher to floss. This just completely gets shredded. It was very frustrating. Customer service was excellent and understanding, though! They gave a refund and were very kind about it, which I appreciated. I think if you don't have tight spaces between your teeth, this works very well.
Figlia
Experience
I've been deep into the non-alcoholic scene since I got pregnant and had a baby. I've tried so many different brands. Figlia falls into the same category as Ghia for me- slightly bitter, providing a more complex drinking experience, but isn't reminiscent of any particular alcoholic beverage. This was more enjoyable to drink than Ghia, as it isn't quite as bitter. I got the 6-pack of the cans for close to $50. Both my husband and I agreed- this tasted like an alcohol mixer and would have been much more elevated and delicious by adding an alcohol like Mezcal for smokiness. I think my preference for non-alcoholic beverages are ones that are mimicking actual alcoholic beverages, like St. Agrestis' Phony Negroni (check it out if you haven't!!).
Feedback
Very overpriced for a non-alcoholic beverage, so I don't think I'd purchase again.
Courtside
Experience
My favorite flavor is definitely the mango passionfruit- it has the most unique flavor that I don't typically taste in other beverages. My household drinks A LOT of coconut water, so I knew we had to try this. In some ways, it tastes like mixing coconut water with a fruit juice (which we do quite a bit), but the slightly sparkling essence makes it a tad more interesting than that.
Feedback
I'm not sure if I'd purchase again, because we do often mix our coconut water with sparkling water or fruit juice- I feel like I can make this at home, but I could see myself purchasing this every so often for a unique and hydrating flavor.
Freestyle
Experience
I love how soft these diapers are- and the fun patterns definitely make me a lot happier than the other diaper brands we've tried. Our daughter is 3 months now, we've used about 4-5 different diaper brands. Freestyle comes to the top for soft feel, no blow outs/leakage, and design.
Feedback
Sadly, this isn't a financially sustainable option for us in the long run. I might purchase these as I see different deals, but considering that we go through diapers so quickly, these feel a bit more luxurious.
SUPERDRIP
Experience
I've only been using for a little over a week on my armpits but I already can confirm- it really works! No odor and no intense sweating. Before, I was having to reapply often, but even that didn't really help with the smell and overall issue. I've been following their suggestions for how to apply and it's been going well so far. Sometimes the lotion gets powdery when I reapply and it flakes onto my clothes, but that might be a user error. The only other thing I don't love is that after I rub it into my armpits and wash my hands, my hands feel super dry. It definitely sucks out the moisture of whatever it comes into contact with, which I don't love.
Feedback
This honestly might keep me from purchasing again because it's been frustrating- but the bottle! It isn't one of those easy squeeze types of bottles, and it's really annoying. I often end up with too much or too little product. And it takes a while to get it to come out. I can imagine, once I get down to the bottom, it'll even more frustrating. I'd definitely suggest they explore other options and then I might reconsider.
Jot
Experience
I've been experimenting with quick, easy ways to get a delicious cup of morning coffee, as I just had a baby a few months ago. Jot was an option that caught my eye (and was excited to see it was a fellow parent that was inspired to found and start the company!). After a week of using it, I have to say that the flavor is great, it's quick and easy to use, and solves my issue of getting a quick caffeine fix in the morning.
Feedback
I wish there were less caffeinated or decaf options. One tablespoon (the recommended amount) is 150mg, which is a little bit high sometimes. It is on the pricier side, with smaller bottles, but i assume the small bottles are for freshness.
