Review of Lush

5 star rating Review of Lush September 23, 2008 | Posted in Cosmetics & Perfume

Lush is OK I dunno about Lush's current products but I know personally people who've worked for the company. They treat their employees very well with bonuses. I've seen the organic saffron cases and other ingredients that go into their stuff with my own two eyes. Maybe they've changed since my friends left...

Review of Pomegranate Juice by POM

1 star rating Review of Pomegranate Juice September 19, 2008 | Posted in Tasty Drinks

POM takes nutritionalist branding to the XXTREME!! While sometimes design and marketing help make otherwise boring products attractive to more people I think POM goes a bit too far. Their bottles are beautiful, that's for certain. But the "nutritionalist" claims (to borrow a word from Michael Pollan) of anti-oxidants is stretched a little far from...

Review of Lavender Dish Soap by Method

5 star rating Review of Lavender Dish Soap May 29, 2008 | Posted in Cleaning & Laundry

Method's Snozberries Smell Like Snozberries The reason you should buy this over other dish detergents is that Method's lavender actually smells authentic. Other national brands claiming to be scented tend to smell the same way you'd expect chewing gum to smell. Mostly similar but clearly artificial. Method's scents always smell either spot on...

Review of Natural Toilet Bowl Cleaner by Seventh Generation

Review of Xocolatl by Dagoba Organic Chocolate

5 star rating Review of Xocolatl April 19, 2007 | Posted in Tasty Drinks

Aztec Style My boyfriend brought me a can of this from North Carolina. It's absolutely amazing on it's own or as a booster for an awesome cuppa joe. Try it mixed in with some nice plain yogurt as well!

Review of Shampoo by Jason

4 star rating Review of Shampoo April 19, 2007 | Posted in Hair Care

Green Me From the Top Down I don't make a lot of money. But the environment and waters matter to me living here down by one of Canada's dirtiest harbours. So I decided to start from the top down and work on buying a shampoo and conditioner without Bad Things in it. Jason was the best price and smelt the best at the grocery...
