    Received a free product from Halfday Iced Tea

    I have tried both the Lemon Iced Tea and the Green Tea flavors and really enjoyed both. I normally cannot stand the aftertaste of things sweetened with stevia so I was not expecting to like it, but it is surprisingly not present with these drinks! The nutrition profile is great. The only reason I have 4/5 is the price, it will have to be an occasional treat for me.

    Ugh, Jeni's, I love you for the most part. Their ice cream is delicious enough for me to pay a premium. I am not the type of person to eat a pint in a sitting or two so I can justify it as it lasts a few weeks. Their scoop shops are also great, but lately the seasonal flavors are always sold out or only available in pints. (And the pints there are 150% more expensive than the grocery store, wtf?) Their standard flavors are still delish but I feel like they have been lacking in creative flavors as of late. I want to try new things when I'm there! I ordered online for a gift one time, the experience overall was fine but the shipping instructions weren't straightforward and it was a bit stressful making sure the recipient would be there to receive the time-sensitive package. That was a few years ago though so the procedure may have improved since. The best way to get the special flavors is by ordering, but with the minimum plus shipping it's a crazy price to pay for ice cream. Long story short, Jeni's please make more unique flavors and make them more accessible!

    As others have said, these are dry and best when dipped in coffee or tea. The flavors are good but nothing overpowering. They're nice to keep in my desk as a backup breakfast on days I don't have time to prep anything. The price and taste would prevent me from choosing these over a granola bar or similar that's more accessible. The brand claims they are gluten free but has a shared facility warning on the package, I reached out to them to see if they do any testing/what procedures are in place to prevent cross contamination and did not hear back. I like the idea overall but there is room for improvement.

    Loved my Casetify case at first, they are extremely cute and have so many designs to choose from, but that's where the redeeming qualities end. The back glass of my phone shattered while in the case. I'm not super gentle on my phone but this is the first phone that has EVER shattered. The graphics started chipping off after a few months, and the final straw was when the rubber bumper around the edge began to separate from the back. The price you pay for the quality is obscene and it is incredibly wasteful. Hilarious that they claim to be sustainable. My first Casetify case is most definitely my last.

    I received the Buffer Jelly as part of a thingdrop. I am a skincare enthusiast and have used many facial oils before. I like that it comes out thick, not runny like most oils so it is much less messy. My dry skin loved the oil as the last step in my routine at night and it has not caused any breakouts. My typical go to oil is rosehip oil and the results I saw were pretty much the same, just nicely hydrated skin. I would be way more inclined to travel with this than other oils as there is a much lower risk of leakage than a dropper bottle, but I only travel to cold/dry climates a handful of times a year. The packaging was super cute. I am also interested in trying Super Saturated as I've heard amazing things and I hope they release more products in the future. Would I buy buffer jelly again? Maybe if I was placing an order from Experiment for other things. The bottle seems small for the price and it is nice but not game changing for someone who already likes facial oils.

    We have the kettle, ode grinder, and pour over that we use to make our daily coffee. As a household of two that doesn't always make coffee at this same time, this setup makes more sense for us than a coffee pot and the taste is far superior. We have used them daily for a few years and no issues so far, other than a few small paint chips coming off the grinder catch cup but fellow was kind enough to replace it. We also use the kettle for tea and other applications and it is so useful to be able to control the temperature with precision. The grinder is a bit messy but it doesn't bother us. We also have some of the carter mugs, which are nice but nothing groundbreaking for a travel mug.

    I'm obsessed with their cream blush, I don't know how it hasn't gotten more hype with all of the liquid/cream blushes that have become so popular. I apply it with a brush and it looks so natural, is very buildable, and much less likely to be overpowering than a liquid formula. You can apply it with a full face or very minimal makeup and it still looks good. This is the only Merit product I've tried but I will certainly try more in the future.

    If you are an iced coffee drinker these are a MUST! No more sweaty cups and the ice doesn't melt as fast. The ice cream pint ones are also great!

    I ordered a leather charging mat for my husband as a gift and we ended up returning. He loved the look of it, but for the price, the quality was severely lacking. The seams were loose and you could move the whole top portion with a light press. The wireless charging tech wasn't up to date either, faster options are available now. A watch charging option would also be a nice upgrade, you would still need a separate charge for that. Overall just pricey and plenty of small ways to improve. Also, was cheaper sold by the company on amazon than their own website.

    I have the eye masks and the Instant Angel moisturizer. The eye masks are lovely for a longer skincare routine, and I also use them to catch fallout when doing my eyeshadow and hydrate my undereyes at the same time. Instant Angel has been a game changer for my very dry skin. It is an amazing year round moisturizer that never feels too heavy. I have also tried Deliverance back when they first launched and didn't see too much change in my skin, however my skin doesn't seem to love niacinamide. I may give it another try now that I use stronger retinol products to see if it helps with irritation.
