BAGGU
Experience
I am an absolute Baggu freak. I have almost everything they make, and use them regularly. I have so many standard Baggus and I use them for everything. I keep 2-3 in each of my daily bags (half of which are also Baggus) and my car. They are super sturdy and hold more than you might think. When I go grocery shopping, I’m able to fit everything in 1-2 standard Baggus 90% of the time. I can fit about 3 outfits (including shoes, accessories, makeup bag, etc) plus some other things into one standard Baggu when I’m popping over to my partners place for the weekend. My daily bag rotates between the medium Crescent, the Fannypack, and the Sport Crossbody and they are all so cute and versatile with plenty of space and small zippered pockets inside. I also have some of the smaller pouches that I use often for traveling, for my makeup bag, for organizing things, whatever! I even have a few pairs of the socks that I adore, towels, potholders, wallet, laptop sleeve… and they’re all great!
Le Puzz
Experience
I’ve had so much fun getting into puzzles again with Le Puzz! The designs are so fun, and even the boxes have cute, funny little details on them that go with each design. It’s a really thoughtfully designed product! I bought the mini puzzles through Thingdrop and enjoyed them so much that my partner and I immediately bought more full size puzzles when we finished :)
Leaf Shave
Experience
I bought the dermaplaner as a Thingdrop and initially wasn’t super impressed, but after a few more uses I’ve grown to like it more. I think I may have put the blade in backwards the first time, because when I put in the second blade/guard I found it to work significantly better! I really love that it is plastic free and ships in recyclable boxes with minimal waste. I also love that it’s refillable and reusable. The refill blades seem to be fairly priced, but are currently out of stock so I can’t see how much shipping will make the total yet. It is very sharp, and if you don’t get the angle quite right or place the blade down a little too hard on your skin it’s easy to nick yourself a little which isn’t ideal, obviously. It’s an easy adjustment though!
Feedback
I wish the kit came with the cover or stand; considering it is essentially a stick with a razor blade at one end, I don’t love storing it uncovered. I also wish it had come with the recycling tin for the blades/guards. I will end up buying these things separately, but it would make sense to include them in the initial kit instead of as an extra purchase.
De Soi
Experience
I’m not much of a drinker, but I do enjoy a nice craft cocktail from time to time. My partner is sober, so I’ve been on the hunt for some tasty NA cocktail alternatives for us to share and decided to give the De Soi sampler pack a try. I fell in love instantly! The packaging design is so cute, and the flavors are AMAZING! I loved all three flavors, especially Champignon Dreams, and my partner particularly loved Golden Hour.
doublesoul
Experience
I’ve always been pretty picky about my socks, so I was really excited to test out a new brand. While they are marketed as “basics”, the style and feel of the ankle tab socks reminds me of Balega, which was my (until now) favorite brand of running socks. The prices are also comparable. The socks are very cushiony and soft, and the color selection is amazing! I’ve always been a little turned off by the color options from other high end socks— often too athletic looking to be worn casually. I will definitely be buying more socks from Doublesoul, and I won’t be surprised if they become the new staple of my sock drawer :)
Courtside
Experience
I really enjoyed these drinks! I love a coconut water based beverage, and the flavors were awesome— not too sweet or fake, and not just barely there. I would probably buy again!
Saltair
Experience
The bottles look great in the shower and the body washes smell good initially, but the smell really doesn’t last once you rinse. I was hopeful for a nice lingering fresh and clean scent
Aesop
Experience
The scent of the hand soap is good, but not as mind blowing as I had been led to believe. I didn’t feel as if the quality really made it worth the hefty price tag. It’s a fun little indulgence, but I won’t be regularly outfitting my sinks with a new bottle.
Le Labo
Experience
The price tag is a little shocking at first, but for an occasional indulgence it’s absolutely worth it. The fragrances are so rich! I was also pleasantly surprised by the strength of the candles— at first, it seemed like a weak scent, but after an hour or so of burning I realized the scent was filling the room in an obvious but not overwhelming way.

Adored the flavor selection, these drinks really do taste good, not just “good enough” as most healthy alt drinks do.
