Siete Foods

Everything I’ve gotten from Siete has been excellent. I usually feel like crap after eating prepackaged Mexican food products, but all their products taste healthier (in a good way) and their flavors are well balanced. I’ve had there taco seasoning, taco shells, refried beans, enchilada sauce, maize chips, and tortilla chips. Their lime tortilla chips are my FAVE bc they’re so light and crispy, and super tasty on its own. I’m a big fan and they’re my go-to whenever I wanna make Mexican food at home.

I thought their pastas were alright, but their pizzas are where it’s at! Not gluten intolerant here, just like trying different products. I will def buy their pizzas again. Also kudos to their customer service. Got this on a drop, and the package came completely smashed and melted after being delayed by the courier. Banza was able to send me a new shipment and accommodate me with my own schedule.

Tried these on a drop and I enjoyed all the flavors! I like that they had a balance, not TOO sweet to be called a dessert, not too savory to be a salt bomb. The spices really stand out. My only minor critique is that consistency: when first opened was nice and chewy, but a few days later the biscuits got kind of dry and tough, like a thick cracker (I still ate them tho).

I am a fan! Their dark chocolate is very tasty, and I like that it’s not too sweet. I actually preferred drinking it straight than mixing it into any coffee or granola or anything.

Trail mixes are what makes this brand stand out, imo! I got the variety pack which has a very generous range of products, and I've been mulling over them for a while. I learned that the best way to enjoy Ziba is in trail mix form. At first I ate some of the fruits and nuts alone, and my biggest complaint was that the fruits were TOO sweet (esp the mulberries), and the nuts were TOO salty (baby pistachios were my fave, despite the overseasoning). But then it made more sense once I tried their pre-made Trail Mixes. I get it now: the mix is a MUST to get the right balance and complexity. Apricot kernels and Mulberries were a perfect pairing. The Fruit & Nut Trail Mix is also a well rounded flavor mix. Now I know, and with the leftover individual fruit and nut packs, I'm interested in creating my own trail mix blends. That said, a few of them did taste fine alone (kishmish raisins, raw heirloom almonds, and the apricot kernels), but mixing them together elevates it overall. Love being introduced to new healthy snack/ingredients, and love the ethos and design of the brand. Will buy these again for a charcuterie board!
Magic Molecule

Glad to hear this works for others, but sad it did not for me! It *might* be too potent for my sensitive skin? My personal tip would be to emphasize frequency over quantity. At the time, I was targeting multiple spells of rosacea, acne, blepharitis/styes (i know, TMI), so maybe my case was a bit too intense to cure. They say you can spray as often as you want since it's rosacea/sensitive skin friendly. But I might've overdone it because it ended up drying out my face, caused breakouts, and I still had redness. (I used it as a toner in my daily face routine, and post-gym spritzing—about 3 applications a day, for 3 months). I've used other brands before, and couldn't tell if they worked. Tried MM since it's got the highest % of HOCl on the market. Later, I read that HOCl acid should be used in small quantities, and regularly for best results. So maybe it's too potent for me personally? Since then I have stopped using HOCL altogether and my skin balanced out again. 🤷♀️ I ended up giving it to my bf to use. May update my review if he likes it! Love the site design, and excellent packaging, btw!
Brightland

I was gifted their "Awake" oil, and I can absolutely taste the Brightland difference! The flavor is rich with a lot of depth, enough to elevate any dish! Full-bodied, nutty, buttery...think warm/cozy rather than light/bright. It's great for any dish that features EVOO as the star ingredient (pasta, crispy potatoes, garlic break, EVOO cake, etc). I enjoy it simply with cracked pepper to dip with warm bread. Love that they have gift sets (that I will most likely just snag for myself). Sure it costs a pretty penny, but totally worth it if you want to elevate your dishes. (Shout out to their design team. Their packaging and branding is chef's kiss!)

Okay, yes. The Drizzle is pretty dang tasty. It's got this bit of fresh herby, grassy flavor with a slight peppery finish. I will say it's on the lighter side (as opposed to full-bodied flavor), but I can imagine it's meant to be a versatile and well-rounded dressing oil for a variety of dishes. Definitely more for dressing than for dipping (but that ain't gonna stop me 🙂 ). Still haven't tried the Sizzle yet, but I can't wait to see if/when this brand comes out with more variety or infusions! (Big kudos to their design team, too! Branding, packaging, squeeze bottle, fun custom website, and beyond...all very excellent and thoughtful.)

I tried their liquid collagen. Flavor wise, it is really tasty, but I couldn't tell if it was working for me after using it for 3 months. On the other hand, I did really like their S27+ Anti-Aging Hyaluronic Lift Moisturizer. It's jelly-like, hydrates and absorbs into my skin so well without it being too heavy. I had great results from that. If I didn't already have a skin system in place that was more affordable, I'd reorder that product. I also love their refillable packaging.
