This milk is so delicious. I love the taste of it. It works great in coffee, although you do kind of have to stir it all up to undo some separation.

It's just so expensive! I don't think I can justify paying full price for this on a regular basis. Maybe as a special treat!

I really wanted to love this, because I am a huge fan of adding flavor to my water to force myself to hydrate. At first, I was putting the tabs in my water bottle, and that was just not a pleasant experience -- the fizziness kind of translated to a weird scumminess in terms of mouthfeel? The drinking experience was much improved by putting a tab in a very (very) large glass of very cold water and drinking with a straw. In the end, I enjoyed this. I'm just not sure I enjoyed it more than the little squirt bottles of flavor drops you can get at the grocery store, so I don't think I'll be going out of my way to repurchase.

Maybe a little more guidance on how to consume?

Obviously the pimple patches are a classic for a reason, but I want to talk about the rescue balm. I LOVE this stuff. It comes in a tiny little squeeze bottle, and it's supposed to support recovery/ healing after blemishes. I pat a small amount on inflamed, acneic patches morning and night, and I think it has really helped with redness and preventing scarring. I also love how affordable it is. I haven't tried the color-correcting version yet, but it's on my list!

I gave my spouse some of the Momofuku chili crunch as well as their soy sauce and tamari. The chili crunch was an interesting entry into the deep chili crunch market these days. It isn't the most classic, so I'd recommend it specifically for people who are already into the genre and want to compare different spins on it. The soy sauce and tamari were similarly fun to try and are for sure high-quality; we didn't feel the need to go out and repurchase once we'd finished them, though. All in all, fun to try, but not pantry staples, necessarily.

I gifted a friend one of their Dutch ovens and it was such a hit. The color and look were beautiful and just a little more special than the average pot. From what I've heard, it performs really well. I'm not sure I'd buy all of their products just for personal use, since there are more economical and still attractive options out there, but I think these make perfect gifts, especially for weddings/ housewarmings/ etc. Sometimes, it's fun to have a slightly frivolous version of a practical product, and that's what I think these are!

I LOVE the idea of these kits. They, in theory, make it so easy to do a fun, hands-on activity with friends (or in general, I suppose). But the kit that I did basically consisted of just a bunch of clay and one color of paint. I know for a fact I could have gone to a crafting store and bought those supplies for a small fraction of what these kits cost!
Feedback
I think that the kits should either be a little more specific/ unique to justify the price point, or a bit more accessibly priced given the price of their contents.

I love all of their colors -- lots of clothing, particularly activewear, is either just neutral or kind of neon/ garish to me. These are fun, bold, non-obnoxious colors. This is a very specific situation, but a family member of mine had a mastectomy recently and needed to find comfortable bras that could accommodate a prosthesis. The people in store were so warm and helpful about this, and it turns out that a lot of the bras worked for that purpose!

I've found some breathable leggings that stay up well and don't feel uncomfortable around the waist. Other leggings, though, have been too stiff and rigid around the waist (and run really small). All that to say, it varies from fabric to fabric and style to style. It's a little easier, in my opinion, to shop in person than online as a result.

I received some Bombas as a gift and genuinely look forward to wearing them. They're very comfortable and supportive, and they've held up well over time going through the wash.

It's hard for me to spend so much money on socks!

Delicious! Also fun branding, so makes a good gift. Love the ethical practices.

I wish they had one of the big packs of minis with a mix of different flavors!

I like the look of Allbirds sneakers for a very casual vibe! They're soft and comfortable.

For me, they haven't hold up particularly well. The wool upper has come loose from the outer sole, and one of my pairs has just really stretched out over time.
