Aesop
Experience
Resurrection is an unbeatable hand wash. The smell, the lather, it's amazing. The packaging is timeless and luxury, and sure it's a lot to pay for some soap, but it's so worth it.
Cubitts
Experience
The best glasses shop. They have a lovely selection of frames, from everyday classics to more out-there and colourful options. Their customer service is excellent, all the staff are friendly and happy to help. I managed to find a nice pair to fit my (quite big) head, and they were able to adjust the frames for a perfect fit. I've also had eye exams which have been great.
Scrub Daddy
Experience
Love the marketing and the fun product, but at the end of the day it's just a sponge. I've not found it to be a remarkable sponge, it doesn't scrub things as well as I would have hoped but it's hard-wearing and better than the really bad cheap sponges you get in supermarkets.
Veja
Experience
Cool shoes, ethos, and great colour options. My only problem is that they are horrible to wear in, they have given me endless blisters and can rub in weird places. Not a shoe that I can wear all day, but rather only for a few hours.
Remedy Drinks
Experience
Nice tasting kombucha without the sugar in other brands. I like the variety of flavours, and much more affordable than many other kombucha brands.
Wool and the Gang
Experience
Loved it, I got an easy knitting kit to make a hat and it was really clearly explained and easy to follow the pattern. The yarn is soft and cosy, and I ended up buying a load more yarn in the sale to make more hats with the original pattern. Great way to get into knitting.
Grandma Crunch
Experience
Great packaging and fun brand. The cereals were good, the chocolate and chocolate peanut butter ones had quite a strong smell to them that smelt 'off' to me, they tasted nice but the smell was off-putting. The cinnamon flavour is best of the bunch, it doesn't taste lower carb than usual cinnamon cereal.
Estrid
Experience
The branding, razor colours, and marketing were all great, but I did not like the razor blades. The handle was good, sturdier than other brands and quite heavy in the hand which make it easy to use, but I found I got far more shaving cuts from using brand new Estrid razor blades than other brands.
Feedback
Sharper blades, and have an option for blades without any shaving gel as it gets sticky and doesn't dry.
Tony's Chocolonely
Experience
Love love love the caramel sea salt bar, one of my favourites ever. Love the variety of flavours, the bright eye-catching packaging, and of course the mission to end slavery in the chocolate industry.
Feedback
Just slightly too expensive to buy regularly.
Papier
Experience
Good quality notebook, I loved being able to personalise my notebook and the shipping was super fast.
