Reviewing The New Traditional Teas From DavidsTea

DavidsTea Traditional / Straight Teas October 2016 - Golden Monkey Black Tea Review - Ruby Oolong Tea Review - Imperial Sencha Tea Review - Davids Tea Reviews Canada

DavidsTea is killing me with all of the recent releases.  We just had the Halloween collection, the Advent Calendar will be released soon followed by the winter and holiday collections.  Then they surprised us with a release of three new straight or traditional teas.  These are pricey teas meant to be supreme cups of their […]

DAVIDsTEA Imperial Sencha Tea Review

DavidsTea Imperial Sencha Tea Review Davids Tea Straight Teas Fall 2016

DavidsTea Imperial Sencha is the final of the three new traditional teas released this month.  If you missed them, I have already reviewed Ruby Oolong and Golden Monkey.  Like the others, Imperial Sencha comes with a fairly hefty price tag compared to their regular Sencha.  Though not as expensive as the black or oolong teas released this week. […]

DAVIDsTEA Golden Monkey Tea Review

DavidsTea Golden Monkey Black Tea Review Davids Tea Straight Teas Fall 2016

The second of the new teas I tried from the October 2016 DavidsTea traditional tea release is Golden Monkey.  It is an organic black tea and I was hoping it would live up to the price tag like Ruby Oolong. At $17.98 for 50g, Golden Monkey is expensive for a plain black tea.  DavidsTea promises that […]

How To Shrink Nail Stamping Images

DAVIDsTEA Ruby Oolong Tea Review

DavidsTea Ruby Oolong Tea Review Davids Tea Straight Teas Fall 2016

I was excited when I heard that DAVIDsTEA was releasing new traditional teas.  They released some straight teas earlier this year and I liked them all and it is nice to have some “regular” teas too.  The prices though, Ruby Oolong sells for $19.98 for 50g so is it worth it? DavidsTea describes Ruby Oolong […]

Davids Tea Back From The Dead Reviews

DavidsTea Halloween Teas - Back From The Dead Halloween Coffin Teas 2016 Swampwater, Stormy Night, Maple Sugar

As I mentioned last week, DavidsTea brought three teas back from the dead this year for Halloween.  The Back from the Dead teas are usually seasonal teas that were well loved.  Since two of the included teas are only available online, I imagine that the coffin displays will sell out quickly.  So you want to pick […]

Essence Jeans On! & So What?

Essence The Gel Jeans On and So What Polishes Review & Swatches

I recently picked up two of the new polishes available at Shoppers Drug Mart from Essences The Gel line.  While some of the new colours are online or Loblaws exclusives, there are six new shades available at Shoppers.  My local store only got four and I picked up Jeans On! and So What?  The selection […]

Blue Jays ALCS Game Mani

Toronto Blue Jays Nail Art ALCS Game 1 2016 Canadian Nail Art

Last year, I couldn’t be bothered to do my nails blue for the game against KC – something he has not forgiven me for, so I promised him not just blue, but Blue Jays inspired nails for the ALCS.  It is a good thing they swept the last series because as much as I love […]
