The One of a Kind Show is back for the winter season, and there are seemingly hundreds of exhibitors showcasing some pretty awesome work. From skincare to home goods to food and everything in between, there is something at the show for the entire family. However, because there are so many booths to check out, which can be kind of overwhelming (it was..), I’ve decided to highlight some of the brands that caught my eye whilst navigating the vast isles of the Enercare Centre’s convention hall. Here’s what stood out:
