The BEST candles! Strong scents, all mysterious and different from what you can typically get from a small candle brand, feels luxurious. Every time I burn one in my home, I get compliments on the scent. I love their brand photography and art direction, and the woman who started the brand is so, so kind. If you're looking for a gift to give someone this holiday season, consider a Mar Mar candle!

I love Muji—affordable, minimal, practical. Their stationery is amazing, all the clothes I've ever purchased have held up for years, and I enjoy the clean, Japanese minimalism. I just wish they kept more stores open in the states!

I was shopping for a backpack to hold all my camera gear (2-3 film cameras, rolls of film, and a camcorder) plus my 15" laptop and some personal items. I have been so put off in the past by how rugged and masculine camera gear tends to be, and while that can be true with some of the Peak Design gear, I found the Totepack to be perfect for my needs and my style. I seamlessly load it up with my laptop, cameras, film, chargers, and a water bottle, and the camera cube inserts are amazing for customizing. Plus, the lifetime guarantee makes me feel great about really putting my bag to use. I'm so happy with my choice, and even happier knowing that my cameras aren't all falling to the bottom of my backpack (fjallraven kanken).

Wow—the Jolie shower head has exceeded all of my expectations. I'd been seeing ads for Jolie for weeks now, but was not 100% convinced it would make a difference. I had previously been using a cheap Sprite filter from Lowes (1940s plumbing, Los Angeles hard AF water) and saw little to no difference in my hair, so I didn't understand what would make Jolie any different. For one, even if it doesn't filter anything out, the shower head itself is amazing. The pressure is fantastic, but I really did notice a difference immediately! My hair was softer, and where my scalp is usually dry and itchy from our hard water, it didn't bother me at all. My partner suffers from oil overproduction (and subsequently dandruff) and he said his scalp felt immediately better, too! The packaging is thoughtful (albeit heavy), the tools were high quality, and the install was seamless.

I feel so cute wearing my thousand helmet on my bike! I love how low profile and modern the design is. I was worried about air flow (pretty sweaty) but it's not bad for just cruising around the neighborhood! I love the extra features like magnetic bike light attachment, VERY cool.

I love how unique and complex Boy Smells candle fragrances are. I recently discovered their perfume and I can't wait to treat myself to a bottle! The packaging makes a great gift, and while they're a little more expensive than I'd usually spend on a candle for myself, it's a nice treat from time to time. Plus, I love that they're based in LA!

Gorgeous, gorgeous girls love BAGGU! I have been shopping Baggu since 2012, and I still have some of those early days reusable bags. They're sturdy, compact, and obviously fkin cute. I have Baggu leather, cotton, and nylon bags and I use them all, all the time. Seriously—my purse is baggu, wallet is baggu, weekend bag is baggu, going out bags are all baggu, pillowcases, beach towels, you name it...you get it. They just can't be beat! The quality is amazing, especially for the price point, and you feel like the cutest b in the grocery store when bagging in a reusable tote. My ONLY beef with the reusable bags is that the handles are the wrong direction for carrying on your shoulder, which is necessary when walking through the city with heavy groceries! They twist and fall off, so I prefer to keep the reusables on hand for lighter goods I can carry that way!

Honey Mama's is EXACTLY what I'm craving when I want something sweet. It's rich, decadent, and delightful, plus the texture is amazing. I've had most flavors and I keep going back for more!

I! LOVE! BITCHIN! SAUCE! As a dip for pita chips, drizzled on a roasted veg bowl, spooned over scrambled eggs in the morning — bitchin' sauce is as good as it gets. I always pick it up when I see it (which is just about every time I go to the grocery store). It's usually on sale, which is an added bonus! I have yet to see it at Costco like other reviewers, but when I do...boy oh boy you bet I'm getting some.

First things first, the flavour is AMAZING. The dates are so fresh and the peanut butter crunch reminds me of a Snickers x Reese's (perfect combo IMO). However, you only get two per pack (I was assuming it would be four, even given the size of the box) which makes it a pretty expensive snack when you want a sweet treat. I grabbed a box when I saw them at my local boutique grocer, but I was SHOCKED when I was rung up and saw the price. Delicious? Yes. Expensive? Also yes, especially when this kind of snack is so easy to make at home. I love supporting a local biz here in my hometown of LA, but dang.
