    Vacation

    I'm a visual-oriented person when it comes to consuming products, which I'm not proud of, so I had to try Vacation's products. I bought three things: mineral sunscreen, eau de toilette, and an air freshener. First, the sunscreen. It definitely has a white cast when putting on quite an amount. It's important to test the perfect amount for your skin, not to show a white cast when using it. Also, it's pretty oily. If you prefer matte skin texture, I don't recommend this product. Second, the perfume. The scent is so unique; I never smell this scent ever in any other brands. I'm a huge fan of fragrances and have used all niche brand ones, but I never smell something like this one before. The sweet coconut scent blended with banana and pineapple is perfect for the summer fragrance. I can't wait to use it again the next summer. Third, the air freshener. The scent is exactly the same as the above perfume that I mention. However, it didn't last long. This would work well in the car, a closed space, but it didn't work well in the room. Overall, I only recommend its perfume.

    Feedback

    Its sunscreen is not that much different from other brands in the market. Maybe the sunscreen with the fragrance one would be distinct due to its signature scent, but since I have sensitive skin to the synthetic fragrance, I won't use it. I hope they make more scented products than skincare ones. Its perfume is its best product to me.

    I never tried mushroom coffee until I found this brand. Mushroom powder with coffee? It sounded very American, and I was sarcastic about the taste at first. But I'm Sagittarius moon, which inevitably means I'm a curiosity-driven person. So I bought two instant mushroom coffee: one that boosts brain function and the other that supports the immune system. Honestly, I don't know if this coffee actually helped me be less distracted or stay healthy. All I can say is that they taste damn good, and I just believe it would be better to eat mushrooms for my health than not. I hate acidic coffee, and thank god, these are not. They have a nutty flavor, which goes super well with oat milk. The mushroom taste barely exists, so don't worry about it. If you don't have the energy and intention to make a drip coffee like me, buy this. It is sure worth the money.

    I hope they use reusable packaging for each coffee. The box is made with paper, which I like, but each coffee stick is packaged with plastic, and I feel guilty about using plastic. Other than that, they have excellent customer service, and I highly recommend visiting their brick-and-mortar in Seattle if you have a chance.

    I never enjoyed deodorant until I use this brand. Their product doesn't include aluminum and is made with plant-based and organic ingredients. This product is not only a clean product but smells amazing. I'm using N Green scent, and I even emailed the company to make a perfume with this smell. It is so refreshing and soothing, the smell just takes me to the beach in the summer season.

    I wish they make scent line as soon as possible.

    Imperfect Foods

    I tried Imperfect Foods two years ago but stopped using this brand after experiencing the delivery for about 4 months. I loved that it was eco-friendly for reducing food wastes, but the quality of their products was inconsistent, and sometimes my orders came with the wrong products that I didn't put in the cart. They might improve their service by now, but since I prefer in-person grocery shopping way more than an online one, I probably will not go back to using this service again.

    Feedback

    If they still have inconsistent quality and wrong delivery issues, I recommend improving the issue.

    OLIPOP

    I tried orange cream, orange squeeze, and classic grape flavors. So far, I love orange squeeze and classic grape ones. They have a proper amount of carbon that doesn't make my throat painful, and the after-taste of both flavors had a clean finish. However, I didn't enjoy the orange cream one at all since it had a greasy taste. I don't know if it's natural that it's greasy because it has cream in it, but as I didn't grow in a culture of enjoying cream-based drinks, the taste of this drink didn't leave a good memory. Except for this taste, I enjoy drinking this drink regularly. This drink especially helps a lot when I have indigestion.

    Glossier

    I think Glossier has a great branding strategy. They carefully pay attention to the customer experience alongside their cool design and friendly social media schemes. Some of their products are a bit pricey considering the ingredients are not much clean or sustainable, but most of their products work well. I can't even count how many balm dotcoms I have purchased for myself and my friends and family. Their boy brow is also really practical to use, especially for people like me who don't have much make-up skills. I recommend this brand for people who want to get an insight into running a brand or overall marketing.

    Feedback

    I like the cute packaging they provide at the shop, but frankly, it is too much waste. Even when I buy a few things that don't require significant space to pack, they give me a huge box, making me feel guilty. I hope they revise their packaging to be more environmentally friendly.

    Typology

    I used Typology's rosehip oil, two 100% squalane serum bottles, and make-up remover oil with seven ingredients. I especially enjoyed their squalane serum, which made my dry skin dewy during fall and winter. It was a perfect texture as it was not too oily but still moisturized the skin. Also, their ingredients are all resourced from sustainable farms. Their delivery packaging is all environmentally friendly, which is a highly additional point for me to consume this brand. I recommend this brand to anyone who wants to experience french chic with an affordable price point and clean ingredients.
