The Pizza Cupcake
Experience
“These are even better than bagel bites” - my boyfriend, which is HIGH praise. We love bagel bites in this apartment!! The dough is really tasty and light, the cheese pulls perfectly, and the pepperoni makes it even better. I didn’t pre-thaw (that was just a pro tip they had listed, not required) cooked for 12 minutes at 375 and they turned out perfectly. I grew up with pinwheels from pizza places and these are very much in that same vein.

Definitely pricy but a fun indulgence.
Prose
Experience
Great product, absolutely abysmal customer service and marketing. Product: I love not having to go out to buy shampoo/conditioner, having products tailored to me, really lovely seasonal scents. Shipping is also usually quick.
Feedback
Subscription: Other subscription services I use let you pick your order date, which can be easily adjusted. If you want your Prose product sooner, you have to email customer service. We used to get email reminders saying your subscription is renewing in 3 (or so) days, but they stopped doing that because people don’t understand how to hit the unsubscribe button and complained of getting too many emails. So they caved and got rid of this completely?!?! And now I’ve gotten surprise orders and they say “oh you should set a reminder in your calendar yourself.” Marketing/Customer Service: I just received an email from Prose saying the seasonal scent is ending and if you want the scent, please adjust your order timeframe. This email was sent at 4pm eastern, and I received an automatic reply when I followed up that office hours are until 6pm. Well, I reached out to customer service to get the scent (thinking I had through the end of the week,) only for them to say “oh sorry, the window for receiving the scent has closed.” What??? Why not send that email earlier in the week? Why not send it earlier in the day?? Realistically they gave me two hours to respond to the email and for customer service to make adjustments and respond. On a workday. I’ve been a Prose customer for a long time but I’m honestly thinking about cancelling because of all this nonsense. Disappointing.
GORGIE
Experience
I was psyched to try these clean energy drinks but unfortunately my experience was doomed from the start: my box arrived soggy, which meant one of the cans had opened. The packaging seemed super cute but all of the pretty tissue paper and disco balls were wet with sparkling watermelon crush. The side of the can hand been punctured, which means I was unable to try it. I liked the sparkling electric berry a lot (the peachy keen was just okay but tbh I don’t love peach flavored things), and I liked the energy these drinks gave me. No jitters or crash here! EDIT: They sent me a new sample pack super quickly, with no issues this time! I’m happy I got to try the watermelon, I liked it a lot. Great customer service and great product.

I like the effect of these drinks a lot, but I’m a little worried about getting them shipped in the mail again. Perhaps different packaging could help here. I recommend the drinks themselves, but definitely more so if they’re in stores rather than DTC!
Immorel Beverages
Experience
I love these drinks! The branding is fun and they are tasty. I’m fully on the mushroom train - I love that these all have different purposes for different times of day. In order of preference, taste wise: Wake the eff up, Slow ur roll, Feed ur focus
Feedback
These are all slightly earthy so I could imagine some people not liking that, but I didn’t mind it at all
Fishwife
Experience
Absolutely obsessed with Fishwife’s branding. Everything from the boxes the tins come in to the packaging tape are just done so well and are so cute. As for the product itself, I’m so glad I got to try the campfire cod. It was so tasty and had so much flavor. Definitely looking forward to trying other Fishwife products!
All Better Co.
Experience
I was worried that it would take me a while to get a bug bite to write a review, but as someone who is constantly bitten when going outside (even for <10 minutes) I didn’t have to worry long! The best part about these patches is that I forget they’re on, which means I’m not thinking about the bug bite. When I have a bite, all I do is scratch away. These have been very successful at removing that itchy feeling, which is amazing! Plus, they also blend really well into my skin. Will definitely be buying more when I run out!
Craftmix
Experience
The overall design of the product is great. Simple but effective, and cute! I got the variety pack and am loving it so far! I need to get some rum to try the mai tai, but my favorite of the other three is the mule. These aren’t drinks I usually make for myself at home, so it was fun to have something different. They’re quick, easy, and delicious.
Feedback
I love Samantha’s suggestion below of tubs rather than individual packages because of less packaging waste and more product, but also because the drinks are a little small and it would allow for more customization.
Ries
Experience
I thought I found travel containers that would be great for me…turns out I was mistaken :( I’ve used them three times and each time I’ve put them in a ziplock and have been grateful that I did that because the product spilled out. I chalked the first two times up to not closing them correctly or not paying attention because I was in a rush, but this last time I took my time to close them properly and made sure they weren’t overfilled. And yet when I got to my hotel, there was soap all over the bottles and the bag. The interior container is also difficult to push up once you get towards the end of the product. Since this causes a gap, a bunch of water got in there when I rinsed the containers off before packing them up, which made it more time consuming. It’s also difficult to get that last little bit out of the container; I ended up opening the top and using my hands instead of the pump. Maybe I’m still doing something incorrectly but I am super disappointed that these aren’t working out for me.
Feedback
A lock that doesn’t budge as easily would be helpful with spillage. The smaller containers they just came out with might help with some of the other issues I identified.
Flourish Plant
Experience
First off, love the dedicated vessel for the plant food. The glass is definitely thin and I see that it has broken for others so I’ll make sure to handle it delicately, but I’m a fan so far. I appreciate the measurement marking on the side of the glass and the design is great. As for the plant food itself, I haven’t seen a huge change in my plants yet but I know this is a long-term product and will most likely see growth slowly. I will finish my bottle of Flourish and continue on if my plants seem happier after using it.
Feedback
I have two large plants and four small plants so I had to look up how to divide the food amongst them, but I understand this is a gray area depending on the type of plant and the size so the instructions seem a little unclear. Maybe they could give us some more examples of drops of flourish needed for different situations? The bottle also seems a little small, especially if you’re using more than two droppers each time.
Plink!
Experience
The tablets are fun to use and I love all of the flavors! I’m definitely a 9oz gal (I tried 12oz as suggested first and it was too watered down for me) though I could definitely see two tablets being a good option as well. Watermelon is my favorite of all three. Great packaging too!
Feedback
Definitely more flavors!
