NIVEA Q10 Energy Healthy Glow Day Cream SPF 15

22/04/2024

The cream is thicker than expected but a little goes a long way! The scent is pleasant, it soaked into my skin really quickly and left my skin feeling hydrated and soft. I like the texture and the results. Added bonus of the spf.


Braun TempleSwipe™ thermometer

29/10/2023

This product was super easy to set up with the batteries being included. It has a really easy to read set of instructions and also a very easy to understand reading window with colour co-ordinating temperature readings. Not as easy if you have a child with a fringe as you need to move that out of the way but my child was of an age to do this herself. Really do recommend.


Andrex Gentle Clean Perfect Pull Mega

23/09/2023

The product had a decent sized roll and I agree that every 3 pieces was easy to tear however the paper felt thinner and less absorbent than my regular toilet roll. This roll needed more that the three allocated pieces before it tore but my 7 year old enjoyed the printed dogs on the paper and found the pieces easy to tear.


Regina Soft Bamboo Toilet Paper Family Pack - Asda

13/09/2023

This was really lovely and soft. It looked a bit fragile but it didn’t rip too easily as to be useless. Handy that I’ve also got a cold at present and this meant that I used to blow my nose as well as usual usage. It did not dry out my nose when blowing which is a win! Have a fussy child as well and she loved this product also.


Garnier Ultimate Blends Pineapple Hair Drink

28/03/2023

Initial impression was that this product had quite a strong artificial smell of pineapple. I also notes I would have to use 4 ‘doses’ due to thick hair and it also being quite long. This wasn’t too much of an issue as I’m used to using more product that normal. Had to do it slowly and small amounts through the end of hair and work my way up. The product was a nice texture, a bit like an oil, and this went through my hair fairly easily and you can feel where it was as there was an instant smooth feeling! This washed out well buy you could feel it in the hair when running fingers through. A decent and more muted smell can be smelt on the hair and this was quite pleasant rather than over powering. A small gripe in that the liquid ‘dose’ comes out of the bottle quite quickly unlike normal conditioner!


LEGO Friends Emma’s Art School

18/09/2022

My almost 6 year old daughter and I did this together. First impression was rather intimidating as there was an awful lot of small pieces! But happily there were well labelled bags (7) and an incredible well detailed booklet to put it all together in phases. The bits were great for my almost 7 year old to put together but there was a small bit that she really struggled with and needed help and that was the decorative walls with teeny pieces. Overall; really well packaged, great design, great colours and a decent set. Very impressed. Took several days in stages to put it all together and little one has spent ages playing with this.


Sanctuary Spa Ruby Oud Shower Burst 200ml

28/06/2022

This product comes in a pressured can which I ordinarily wouldn’t purchase but I’m glad I gave this a go. The texture was lovely but be warned; a little goes a loooooong way! I used a lot to start with and it took ages to use it all. It lathers really well and smells really nice.


Colgate Kids Batman Extra Soft Battery Toothbrush 3+ Years

06/06/2021

The packaging was nice and attractive so my daughter loved it to start with (5). Came with batteries ready installed and charged so was good to go. The rotating head was nice and the right size, the extra bristles behind are a great addition in getting the bits she missed. Her manual toothbrush has a tongue brush and she said she missed that part with this brush. The handle was a decent size for an easy grip and the buttons easy for a 5 year old to use.

It was really simple to put together and super soft. 5 year old can put the lead on and off with no issues at all and the accessories seem to be decent and not flimsy. Overall, a really nice product with some lovely accessories.


IAMS for Vitality Adult Dog Food

Dog really enjoyed this and had plenty of energy for running about after another younger dog plus a 5 year old child. She ate it all each sitting.

I really liked that these are made quite natural and with no raw hide. That’s the main thing that normally puts me off dog treats. My normally quite fussy Rottweiler really enjoyed them!


Tefal Unlimited 28cm Frying Pan

08/02/2021

I really enjoyed how solid the tefal 28cm frying pan is. This is a great looking pan and super easy to clean. The only downside is that it takes ages to heat up to temperature but once it does it holds heat pretty well. I would recommend that the heat gets put on earlier than you expect to normally.


NIVEA Refreshing Facial Wash Gel

01/03/2020

I really enjoyed the texture of the gel. Some are too thick and this was just right. The gel foamed quickly enough and a little bit went a long way! After just the first use I noticed a difference in the feel of my skin. A small tingle and it felt hydrated to the touch. Seemed that the spotty patches I have seem less red also, might be down to being more hydrated. This lasted until the next wash.


Colgate Max White Ultimate Whitening Toothpaste - Idealist

23/00/2020

I really liked that it was not a strong flavour where some can be quite overwhelming. I have sometimes sensitivity to taste and this was alright. Didn’t notice a huge difference in whitening but that might be down to me drinking far too much coffee than is good for me!! I felt that there was far too much packaging though which would have put me off buying this potentially.


Tefal Daily Cook 3pc Set

15/11/2019

So, really loved the look of these to start with. Nice and sturdy too, chunky handle and lid handle which was good, some come with a tiny button on top of the lip but these were good. The pan heated quickly, handled my 3yo’s favourite, cheesy beans, without sticking which was amazing and also cleaned up really well. Downside is that even the biggest one wasn’t really wide enough to do a big family stew and I had to transfer to a bigger pan. If the base was a little wider then I could have stirred a little easier. It’s handled cooking, being washed, dishwasher and oven all with no problems. Quite heavy but that’s really not a problem, goes to decent quality. Loved the general feel, so much nicer than my other set. Non stick coating seems pretty decent too, have had previous ones that come off and chip really soon with cooking. Used these almost every day for a couple weeks now and still really enjoy using them.
