Truly Beautiful Hair Clip That Will Bring You Back In Time

This is a truly stunning piece and I'm almost sad that I have to put it in my hair due to the fact that I can't see it in my hair. The pictures do not do the hair clip justice as this hair piece sparkles at any angle. I purchased the Beyend Blue Women's Vintage Crystal Butterfly Hair Clip and there is literally detailing everywhere! Not one piece was left un-detailed....there are blue rhinestones/crystals/turquoise across the top with a butterfly in the center. The clip itself is gold in color and opens quite wide and slides in your hair easily. There are 4 teeth that hold the hair clip in place and even the bottom piece to the clip has hand detailing all over. It truly is a unique hair piece that will have friends and family blue with envy. The perfect gift for any woman/girl.

Need More Storage?...Try The Portable Storage Organizer By OxGord

If you are looking for a lightweight, portable storage closet to store various items on then this may be the solution for you. The Portable Storage Organizer by OxGord makes for a great place to store extra household items or as a closet for hotel and dorm stays. I was impressed with the overall look after building the closet and it is quite large. It comes together nicely and there is lots of space to hang clothes and store things as well. There are 2 sets of shoe storage racks on both sides of the closet so there is no more having to bend over to pick up your shoes off the floor. Also another favorite part of mine is how I can zip/unzip the front cover into 3 different sections (can be one whole section, 2 or 3 sections) and when opened there is the option to roll it up and by way of a Velcro attachment..they can stay rolled up for easy access. If you do have to break it down for storage or to move, I would suggest getting a larger storage container but it is much easier to take down.  Overall, this closet is nice and serves its purpose as a portable storage organizer.

Don't Get Your Cables In A Tangle....Try A Kootek Cable Organizer Sleeve

In the past, I have always used electrical tape or cable ties to keep wires together. Recently though I re-arranged my living room and office area to toddler proof everything. Upon doing this, I realized that there were like a million things that a toddler would think was amazing....cords, electrical outlets, electronics, etc. I knew I needed to do something to keep my wires safe and out of mind (you know the whole out of sight, out of mind saying) so I purchased these Cable Management Organizer Sleeves to do just that. They come in a pack of 5 black neoprene sleeves that zip up (so easy to use) and are completely bendable and flexible so you can fit them anywhere. Four of the cables are the same size 19.7'' while one is 39.4'' for those extra long wires. They can even be zipped up together to make larger sleeves for those extra large bundles of cable/wires. These cable organizer sleeves have proven to be a nice addition to my home...plus, they are a great idea and have made my rooms look much neater.

Hand Painted Wine Glasses Review

 

Dealing with kids all day tends to drain you by the evening and sometimes you just need to relax and unwind with a good glass of wine. When I saw the Hand Painted Wine Glasses from Valentina Paris I knew I had been missing out with my ordinary wine glasses. These hand painted glasses are amazingly large...I mean I have never in my life seen a wine glass this large! I couldn't believe how beautiful and colorful they are much less the fact that they are each as tall as a 2 liter drink. With the larger glass I am able to let my wine breathe so that I can enjoy every sip.

There are several colors in the detailing (goldish/tan, light blue, red/pink) with black lining with a random pattern, When compared, each glass is completely different with the detailing since these are made by hand. Each of my friends are so jealous. I will definitely be using these at my upcoming holiday parties. These wine glasses are perfect for gift giving and would make a lasting impression when given as a wedding present.

Raku Cutlery Ceramic Knife Set Review

As a woman, wife, mom...I am always in the kitchen cooking. Especially since my husband is a bad cook (he really is...he could burn water). Over the years I have tried out many knives and most of them rust or the handle breaks off from use. I decided to give the Raku Cutlery Ceramic Knife Set a try and I am truly in love. I had no idea these knives existed....a knife this sharp is a rare find! Right off I could tell these knives would be different since the box they come in is amazingly designed and the graphics are so detailed. The box the knives are held in has a magnetic lid and form fitting cushion that surrounds the knives. The set consists of 2 knives...a 3" Paring Knife and a 5" Santoku Knife and both come with a form fitting hard cover for the blades.

 

Honestly, when I see the blades, they remind me of a pearl and how strong and beautiful they are and how they last forever. The same goes for the knives....they will stay sharp for as long as you can manage them and still be a beauty to look at. The handles are made to fit in your hand and it feels so natural to hold these knives. Storage is easy since I do not have to worry about cutting myself with the blade guards. The first time I used the knives I couldn't believe how light they are and how fast and easy they cut! I was able to slice a potato and other vegetables without any trouble. Such an amazing set. These knives would definitely be the perfect gift for the upcoming holiday season.

MusicDrum Portable Bluetooth Speaker Review

This is a really awesome speaker! I have an iphone 5 and I love listening to Pandora but the speakers on my phone are really low and I can hardly ever hear it. In the past I have purchased a few other speaker options to go along with my phone but they either broke within a few months or sounded distorted while in use. I decided to try out the MusicDrum Portable Bluetooth Speaker since the product has gotten many good reviews. Well, the speaker really is tiny! But, that does not do it any injustice because the sound quality is amazing...it sounds clearer on this speaker than it does on my phone!

There is the option to pair via Bluetooth or MP3 with the use of a TF card and you can even use this speaker to answer calls with the use of the built-in microphone. There is a volume, pause, fast forward and back control option as well. I like the bright blue color and there is the company logo in red with a star. I personally am not too knowledgeable about Bluetooth products so I had to read the directions but they are fairly easy to associate with the speaker and I was able to use the Bluetooth option within minutes. My only complaint is that the battery dies within 3 hours time with constant use.....other than that, this portable speaker is great.

Tidy Tiger Soft Silicone Food and Crumb Catcher Baby Bib Review

Knowing from experience (4 kids) I would need to find a bib that a toddler was unable to remove (Velcro, snaps, tying) would prove a little difficult so when I found the Tidy Tiger Soft Silicone Food and Crumb Catcher Baby Bib by Coin & Sapphire I just had to give it a try. I liked the concept of a bib that could be reused without needing to be washed in a washing machine after one use and is virtually indestructible. The Tidy Tiger bib is made from 100% food grade silicone and is latex, phthalate, BPA, and lead Free so you can be comfortable knowing your child is safe. There is a leak proof pocket (tigers mouth) to catch potential messes and an adjustable neck fastener with a hook and loop style.

I personally tried this bib out on my 1 yr old and 2 yr old to see how it worked out and my results were fairly the same. Both children loved the bib and wanted to put it on (until it was actually fastened...kids) but once it took me well over a minute to get it fastened through the hook and loop I was frustrated and so was the child. See, there is this tiny ball at the end of the hook that must go through the donut shaped hole and it doesn't exactly go in willingly. After some prying and pushing at different angles the ball will eventually go through but its work.....much more work than a button bib and by that time the child is usually fighting to get away. Removing the bib is easier but without instructions I can't be sure I actually latched the bib the right way. Does it go through 1 hole and sit or does it go through that first hole then bend around to hook back into the hole on the same silicone strand? I also found that the bib pocket only stays open to catch food when the child is somewhat leaning forward. I do like that the bib is completely flexible at any angle and I can roll it up to store in the diaper bag. Rinses clean in the sink or by a wet cloth making clean up easy.

Overall, this is a nice high quality silicone bib that is made to last. And the cute tiger face is loved by both of my children. With a price of $5.95 this bib is a good choice.

Hydrofeet Dynamic Liquid Massaging Orthotic Insoles Review

My husband is in the military and has to wear military issued boots for 10-12 hours a day...and those boots have no cushion at all. He has been having a lot of problems with his heels hurting him and having to stand at attention for long periods of time only makes things worse. I decided to purchase the Hydrofeet Dynamic Liquid Massaging Orthotic Insoles because of their main purpose of relieving foot pain and giving heel support. The insoles do not look like much at first because they are black and thin but once you insert them and place you foot inside the shoe its an amazing feeling (I just had to try them out). It literally feels like you are walking on air! He feel in love with them right away and wears them everyday. He no longer complains about his heels because as he says "it gives a puff of air straight to my problem areas and I can't even feel the hardness of my shoes". The insoles are able to be trimmed to fit as needed making them the perfect solution for any foot problems.

Contouring All Natural Body Wrap Review

I have tried several versions of the body wraps and I hated them all...until I tried the Contouring All Natural Body Wrap. This is the only wrap that I have not wasted money on. All of the others were either slimy or had that icy hot effect (hot and cold) the whole time...and don't even get me started on the whole "wrap yourself in plastic wrap" jargon. I mean who really wants to do that and how can it possibly be healthy for you?! With the Contouring Wrap I noticed right off that it was thinner than others I had tried and it was 2x the size! It is made with 3 sections so that you get the perfect fit wherever you decide to place it. The wrap is easy to cut and stays in place without any need for extra help.

The directions say to wear the wrap 4-8 hours every 2 days as needed. There are 10 wraps to a pack which should last you a few weeks unless you decide to place them on several problem areas. I had a baby a year ago and lost most of the weight but my belly and thighs need toning so I have been using the wraps to help achieve a more balanced look. So far I am on my 3rd wrap (for both sections) and I am starting to see results. It has taken an inch off of my belly! And the best part is.....I don't feel a thing...no cold/hot feeling, no gel, no stickiness during or afterwards and I can even wear this thing in the shower!! I am very impressed with the quality and thought put into this product and will be purchasing again.

A-Flow Rainfall and Waterfall Luxury Shower Head Kit Review

Shower head shopping is really hard when you can't exactly try them out before purchasing. I decided to purchase the A-Flow Rainfall and Waterfall Luxury Shower Head Kit because of the 3 different functions and because it had a handheld shower head. I already have a shower head set like this one I purchased from Bed, Bath and Beyond for 2x this price so I knew I was going to like the option for the handheld shower head. This set is really great! It came with everything needed to install except a wrench...including the directions, plumbers tape, shower arm, wall plate and 5 extra washers. The set is made from ABS material with a chrome finish so it is very lightweight but sturdy. I love how the hand held shower arm is long so I have no trouble gripping it and the hose is super nice....much nicer than my more expensive one.

There are 3 functions on both shower heads...rainfall, waterfall and rainfall/waterfall. Just turn the dial on each shower head to the function you want and that's it. There is a diverter switch that turns the water from the main shower head to the handheld when desired. This set was very easy to set up and install and I didn't even need my husband (ok, I did...but only to tighten it) and there are no leaks. The water pressure is good and I love how it covers a wide area. The hose is long enough for me to use the handheld shower to wash my toddlers hair as well. Definitely worth the price of $21.95.

Review for Perfecto 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush With Black Handle

My husband is always fussing because he can never get all of the hair shaved off his face the first time when shaving because the hairs are either matted down or growing crazy ways. After doing some reading on the subject, I purchased the Perfecto 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush to help him get a good lather and lift those tiny pesky hairs off his chin before shaving. He admitted that it was weird at first to use a brush because he had always used his hands when applying shaving cream but that he liked how he didn't have to get his hands dirty anymore. Also, he stated that the badger hair is really soft but gets the job done.

The brush is 100% badger hair and placed inside a black wooden handle to make it easy to use. The logo of the company "Perfecto" is imprinted on the handle in white lettering. This brush is easy to clean with water and dries either on its side or upside down in a brush stand. Lightweight, sturdy and made with high quality materials to last a long time. My husband has used the brush several times now and loves the difference it has made in his saving routine.

Etekcity Aroma Hybrid Diffuser Review

 

After purchasing and using several diffusers in the past few months I decided to try a diffuser that would reach a larger sized room (had more water capacity). I decided to try the
Etekcity Aroma Hybrid Diffuser because of the many features it offers. This diffuser comes with the diffuser, a measuring cup, ac adapter and a user manual. It also has the ability to set a timer to allow you to use the diffuser at 60 min./180 min./360 min./ and ON intervals as well as offering the option to display 6 LED lights in red, blue, yellow, green, white and pink that can be set to bright, dim, rotating or off as it suits your needs.

This diffuser is more easy to use than the other ones I have (mammoth diffusers) and only requires that you remove the lid. Just use the included measuring cup and fill with water and your selected oils (no oils if you chose to use as a humidifier) and replace the lid (make sure the tiny arrows towards the bottom of the diffuser are lined up). There is also the option to just fill and measure by way of the side of the humidifier as there are clear lines and amounts imprinted on the inside...100ml, 200 ml and 300ml. Then select the time you want and the light will light up next to the chosen time.

Another great feature for the Etekcity diffuser is that the ac adapter is located on the underside and there is a small opening on the outer edge for the adapter to fit through creating a smooth appearance. When not in use the remaining water in the diffuser can be drained to prevent build-up. There is a stated "Drain Side" with an arrow pointing to the side you should drain the water from to prevent damage to the diffuser.

I really love all of the options on this diffuser....the lights are bright and colorful, the many timer options and the surface area that is covered by just one unit really make for a high quality product. Etekcity has taken all the guesswork out of using a diffuser and this is a great unit for anyone new to using diffusers.
