learning that jensen is like a hair away from being an almond mom is so funny

if losing weight was simple and obvious we wouldn't have to have teams of nutritionists meticulously crafting weight-loss programs based on taking advantage of extremely specific and obscure biological processes and that still have like a 95% failure rate

March & April 2024 Empties

* = disliked the product - would not repurchase ** = liked the product - would not repurchase *** = liked the product - might or might not repurchase **** = loved the product - would repurchase *HOLY GRAIL!*

1. Shiseido Urea 10% Hand & Foot Cream (60g) source: Stylevana thoughts: I brought this along on my trip to Asia back in the summer of 2023. I really like this as it works for both the hands and feet. It is very moisturizing and it makes my feet nice and soft. I do like the red one as well but that one is more so just for hands which is also very good but this one is definitely more moisturizing. I haven't seen this one in my local stores but this is available on YesStyle and Stylevana. rating: *HOLY GRAIL*

2. floun carrot blending serum (30ml / 1.01oz) source: YesStyle thoughts: I really liked this serum. It was lightweight and hydrating and I just love how easily it absorbed into my skin. It also leaves a nice cool and refreshing feeling. The only thing I don't really like is the packaging; about half way through it became difficult to pump the product out. I do have a bit left in the container but it's very difficult to get unless you have like a small spoon/ scoop in your stash. Overall I do like how simple the packaging is and I always look forward to using this product. I do want to try other products from this brand as well. I finished this product in 63 days using it every morning. I did purchase my serum on YesStyle but it looks like it's currently out of stock. I don't know if this will come back on YesStyle or not as I do see that they are carrying less products by this brand as time goes by, which makes me sad. This is a really good serum and something I would want to repurchase and really enjoyed using. rating: ****

3. Biossance Squalane + Enzyme Sugar Body Scrub (60ml / 2oz) source: Sephora thoughts: This was okay. I'm glad that I got to try it in a mini size rather than getting a full size. it was nice but if you do remember I'm not a big fan of sugar scrubs as I find that it doesn't give me enough exfoliation. This felt like it would give a good exfoliation at first but it melts really fast upon contact with water unless you have a lot of it on. This is the set I got from Sephora but they do also offer it on the Biossance website. rating: **

4. Mediheal A-zero Shot Trouble Dressing Spot Patch (80 patches) source: Stylevana thoughts: These are 10mm in size and the pack comes with 80 patches. I did not like these at all. They were really thick and I feel like it didn't suck and adhere that well. rating: *

5. Native Deodorant: Sweet Peach & Nectar (75g / 2.65oz) source: Native thoughts: I do really like Native deodorants. They have nice scents and I do find that it works. I do feel a bit sad when I finish one sometimes as some of the scents are limited edition and usually they don't reproduce them again, but this scent is one of their regulars. I feel like I have been using this for a really long time. I do notice that the scent is no longer as strong as when I first used it. I can say it has been a few years, I feel like I might had purchased this back in 2022 or maybe earlier. I do wish that they would offer the travel size versions on their website. When the site first started they did offer a travel size as a freebie and also the option to purchase a travel size for a few dollars if I remember correctly. You can buy travel sized versions at certain drug stores but they can be hard to find. i think Target was the place that I saw that had the most selection of scents for the travel size versions. Here in Canada I typically only can find the Vanilla & Coconut version. rating: ***

6. O HUI Age Recovery soft animo foam (45ml) source: Jolse thoughts: I really enjoyed using this. It foamed and cleansed well without stripping my face. This was definitely great during the colder months. It is a cream type of cleanser and it does also have a scent but not something I mind. This lasted about 3 months with me using it twice a day. I did get this in a set. I sometimes do wish that cleansers came in this size, as I found it to be the perfect amount and size for a seasonal trail. rating: ***

7. Juice to Cleanse Powder Wash (10 pieces) source: Jolse thoughts: I really enjoyed using this. I did find that one packet contained quite a bit of powder for one wash. I feel like 1 packet could be split into 2-3 uses, but of course it would be hard to set aside since the product is in a packet. I found that it cleansed and exfoliated the face quite well. I mainly brought this along on my travels so that I could still stick to my skincare routine of exfoliating twice a week. rating: ***

8. Derma B Body lotion: Mandarin Till Dawn (30ml / 1.01oz) source: Stylevana thoughts: I'm not sure how I feel about this scent. It does have the scent of mandarin mixed with a kind of woodsy-like scent. The cream itself is nice and light. It spreads and absorbs nicely into the skin without much effort. rating: ***

9. Briogeo Scalp Revival (236ml / 8oz) source: Sephora thoughts: This was okay. It smelt nice and I find that it did kind of cleanse my scalp. It did help with my flaky scalp, as I did notice that my scalp was less itchy when I had this in my routine. I used it once a week. The only thing that I don't really like is that it's hard to determine if you really have washed everything out, however I do shampoo a second time. rating: ***

10. The Face Shop Herb Day Cleansing Tissue (70 wipes) source: The Face Shop thoughts: Once again I finished a pack. These are a staple and are always in my stash. This is probably the product that I have used the longest and on a consistent basis, compared to everything else. rating: *HOLY GRAIL*

11. Watercolors Intense Shampoo: Lilac (250ml / 8.5oz) source: Forme Hair Salon thoughts: I purchased this when I got my hair bleached 2 years ago. It's suppose to help retain the color longer. I feel like it did help for a bit, but eventually it just became kind of brassy. The concept was nice but I didn't feel like it worked for my dark black hair. rating: **

12. Function of Beauty Shampoo (473ml / 16oz) source: Function of Beauty thoughts: I've had this in my stash for a really long time. I can't even remember what formulation I chose for this one or what it was suppose to do. I did mix this with the Watercolors Intense Shampoo as my hair stylist suggested I do 1:1 when using the Intense Shampoo. I actually had another set of these which I ended up giving away as I found that it didn't work for my scalp condition. rating: *

13. Hakugen Iiyutabidachi Turbid Open-Air Spa Inn (12 packets) source: T&T Supermarket thoughts: I really did enjoy the scents of these. The scents made it a nice way to end the night for a relaxing effect. I find that this brand has a stronger scent and less affective on relieving the body but more so the mind. My least favourite one was probably the Green one but overall not bad. rating: ***

14. Tatcha Forest Awakening Hinoki Body Milk (132ml / 4.5oz) source: Sephora thoughts: This was a very light weight cream as well as lightly scented. It goes on so smoothly and absorbs quickly into the skin without much effort. The packaging is also very nice and looks lovely on the vanity. I feel like there may be a good dupe for this, as this is expensive for the amount you get. I do really like the texture of this though, plus I like that it does contain squalene. rating: ***

Tw: Food/Sensitivity Discussion

Can’t wait for Holiday dinners when everyone starts talking about dieting/weight while I’m trying to eat—

I’ve got a good following count, so lemme hop on my soap box real quick for a little psa.

Some advice from a dietetic student specializing in ED recoveries:

You’re 100% guaranteed to like your meal/snack/dessert much more when someone isn’t commenting on it and making you feel guilty for eating it… even if it’s second hand comments not meant for you. (i.e. “I’m so jealous you’re eating that, I wish I could, but I’m bla bla bla bla”). Just put your hand up and stop them from talking, let them know you don’t appreciate their thoughtless comments, and leave. You’re allowed to walk away. You’re allowed to say something. You are entitled to eat your meal in a safe and comfortable environment.

If you or someone else is on their own personal journey that deviates from intuitive eating, please do not let them or yourself force it on others. It’s great to be proud, set goals, and have achievements, but remember that EDs are the most sneaky and harmful, and your/their journey could be someone else’s nightmare. This isn’t just telling people to not try and sell it (i.e. “Look how much I’ve lost on Keto/Exercise Program/etc.!”) I also mean it can be damaging to be presented a “gluten free/dairy free/carb free/keto friendly/ridiculously high protein meal” and have it used like a weapon. Grandma or whoever isn’t the enemy on Iron Chef, unless they/you/or someone in the family has specific intolerances/allergies/dietary restrictions (religious or by preference), there is no need to shove that dish in anyone’s face as if it’s better than a regularly used recipe. It isn’t better, it’s just different, if someone decides to make a dish like that and bring it, it should be treated like a normal dish and save everyone from hearing about it’s “health/detox/nutrient” benefits. If you see someone doing this, go ahead and call them out on their insensitive behavior.

Commenting on someone’s weight is not a compliment, whether they/you think it is or not. We’ve come so far, we can totally compliment someone on something other than than that right? If not, getting to know someone better or having them get to know you better is a great step in finding where to compliment away from someone’s weight. “You’re so beautiful! I love your boots/nail color/makeup/etc.” is so much better than “You’re so beautiful! Your waist looks thinner/butt bigger/etc.”

I am not a board certified dietician and therefore can not mention more on this topic (until I am~), but remember your time with family and friends should be spent enjoyably, and while we joke about the arguments and drama that comes with a big gathering like that, it’s good to remember that enjoyment from food is not evil and you should never be shamed or have to endure nonsense while spending time with loved ones. Those topics, if so important, can have their own separate time given to them, not while you’re trying to decide what to eat/plate up/eating.

me: oh my god thank you for introducing me to pad thai by the way, it's SO good, we have it all the time now and it makes me think of you 🥰 friend: oh, I mean, there are other things too....... me: ..... okay well first of all we're cooking it at home, not just failing to be adventurous at restaurants, but also I was trying to casually connect with you as my friend over a small experience we shared that had a positive impact on my life but I guess I can just shut up instead
