Like A Torrential Downpour In The Driest Desert, The Simple Modern Tumbler Emerged, Parting The Seas Of Mediocrity. Each Sip Is A Defiance, A Battle Cry Against The Mundane, Heralding A New Era Where Not All Cups (Stanley Or Otherwise) Are Created Equal - Or Priced So Heroically
Review: "I absolutely LOVE this cup!!! I have a Stanley, a Reduce and Swig life cups. All 40 oz and this cup beats them all. The reduce cup would be second to this one. It is super light weight compared to the other cups, the lid is super easy to take on and off (i find the Stanley one very difficult), it holds ice all day and the colors are lovely. Literally can not beat it!" - Chels D
In The Left Corner: The High-Maintenance, Mighty Olaplex. In The Right Corner: Elizavecca's Cer-100 Treatment, Ready To Restore Your Hair's Honor Without Demanding Ransom. Let The Hair Care Hunger Games Begin!
Review: "I was super skeptical. I just recently had my hair bleached coming back from red hair and my hair was so dry and brittle. I shampooed my hair and left this conditioner in for three hours and I am amazed at how soft and healthy my hair feels already. It’s the softest and healthiest it’s looked and felt in a LONG time. The bottle is small but it’s also only $7. I have thick hair and used the whole bottle but I wanted to be generous with the product. I think I could potentially get two uses out of it. I am absolutely obsessed with this product after just one use and I will be order more!" - Jennifer Christine

Elevate Your Ambiance Game With The Seductively Smooth Aroma Of Lulu Candles' Jasmine , Oud & Sandalwood, Capable Of Nosesniping Le Labo Lovers Into Converts Without Assaulting Their Wallets
Review: " LOVE these candles. I first ordered the espresso one because I already knew I enjoyed the smell of espresso. As soon as I opened the box I could instantly smell it and it smelled delicious! Almost as if sitting in a coffee shop. It’s such a warm cozy scent. I decided to order more like “In The Hamptons” and “blood orange grapefruit”. These candles smell exactly as they are named. A lot of candles, like Bath and Body works, give me a migraine/headache after burning for a while because the scent is super strong but these don’t do that at all! And they are slow burning so they last quite a while. Definitely recommend these for all the candle lovers." - Melissa

Review: "I have been wanting a good lip mask for a while now, and while I was scrolling on youtube I came across this little beuty. So I bought it! No regrets! The texture and consistency is amazing. Not sticky at all and super glossy! The container is a little smaller than I expected but you just can't get a better deal for the price. I would definitely recommend getting some kind of tool to scoup the product out of its container so its not on your fingers, but that can also be found on Amazon! Great product for its price and would 100% recommend and would buy again!" - Adrian

Imagine Leggings So Soft, So Splendid, You Almost Crave To Cocoon In Bed With Them — Yet They Snatch Your Curves Like A High-End Love Affair. Yeah, That's Colorfulkoala For You — Doing What Lululemons Does But Without Emptying Your Piggy Bank
Review: "Gorgeous leggings and they feel fantastic! I’m a Leggings snob. I own 8 pairs of Lululemon Align pants....and these are a very similar legging. The fabric is more silky and less buttery feeling, but it’s still great. But honestly, they still feel freaking fantastic!!! In fact, I won’t ever run or do cardio in my lulu aligns since the fabric is so delicate....but I won’t hesitate to run in these! They actually hold up. That’s a plus! In addition, they cost less than 1/4 the price of my $98 Lulu pants, so if they for some reason get worn out from running, I can just buy more at that cheap price." - Katy

Review: "I was looking for a more convenient solution for charging my three most used items; my phone, my AirPods, and my Apple Watch. Most of the options I found were stand-type chargers that were not very compact. The Apple Duo charger was at the top of my list, but it was very pricey, and it only offer two charging pads. My in-laws each had UCOMX chargers and I was instantly sold. It folds up, it charges all of my gadgets at one time, and it doubles as a phone kickstand? Sold." - Battlehatch

In A World Where Noise Is A Constant, Srhythm Headphones Are Your Tranquil Escape. Clever Design, Serene Sound, And A Price That Laughs In The Face Of Airpod Maxes – Ready To Switch Sides?
Review: "These are amazing for the price point. If you are like me and love the look of the AirPod maxes but can’t afford the price point, these are a great dupe. They even have the same controls I’m pretty sure. I was worried they were going to feel cheap/plasticky but they are very good quality for the price.

Review: "Okay, so never leave reviews as I should. So here we go! I do have naturally long lashes, yes.

I will be buying more because I am hooked." - Alex Wuneburger
I have this and hate it. It's too goopy and thick. Her lashes look terrible in that pic too! Mascara isn't supposed to clump all your lashes together.

Review: "I have incredibly sensitive, acne-prone skin. Vitamin C and Niacidamide always break me out. After a crazy acne outbreak, dullness, and overall dissatisfaction with my skin- I did some research. The reviews looked great and I was honestly desperate to fix my skin. This product is INCREDIBLE! After a month of using- I got a facial and the esthetician asked me what the HECK I was using on my face and said it’s so hydrated and pore less. If you’re questioning this product or are acne prone like me- give it a shot!!!" - Christina smith

Review: "I am in love with these boots. They’re a little less than 1.5” of a platform and a 1/2” of heel, which makes them wearable all day for work and for traveling. I usually wear a 7.5, but got 8s to make sure I could fit some thicker winter socks in. The shine is perfect for what I was looking for, and I like the slightly crinkled texture that breaks up the shine." - Amazon Customer
