Opshorie Electric Hair Straightener Brush Elegant Hair Straightening Styling Detangling Brush for Natural Look Silky Hair Anti Scald Anti Static Ceramic Heating Anion Treatment

This item was extremely easy to use. All you had to do was literally brush your hair and it did not require any additional products which I normally use with a traditional hair straightener. As you can see from the photos I have very frizzy curly hair and As you can see from the final picture this product worked wonders on my hair. The only thing that I didn't really like was that the ends of my hair didn't get completely straight on they were still little curling in a little frizzy but overall this product worked great. I usually use a traditional straightener but sometimes it can take so long not with this brush, I was able to straighten my hair in about ten min. I would definitely recommend it

Actorstion Facial Hair Epilator For Women - Effectively Remove Unwanted Face Hair Without The Use of Tweezers or Expensive Laser Treatment, Waxing&Threading Systems - Complete with Box&Instructions

I am overall happy with this product. I suffer from PCOS and for those that don't know hair tends to grow fast for women that suffer from this. Not only does my hair grow fast, I have a lot of it, and it is dark so when my lip hair grows it is super noticeable. I used to wax my lip but having to go so much was starting to get really expensive so I bought a wax kit which naturally did not work very well. Then I got this epilator and thing have changed. This item does tend to sting a bit (because you are pulling hairs out) but that tells me that it is working and getting to the root to pull the hair out. I have noticed in just a few uses that the hair takes a little longer to grow back which is great for someone like me. I now have no need to go and pay money to get rid of unsightly hair. I highly recommend.

iPhone 6S Case, MagicMobile® Armor Folio PU Leather Wallet Case For Apple iPhone 6S (4.7-inch) Hybrid Durable Shockproof Case for iPhone 6S Luxury Fashion Cute Cover with Card/Money Pocket

I like the concept of this item. This was especially helpful when going to the grocery store so I did not have to have my wallet and phone and list ect. The color is beautiful and actually looks like the photo. The one complaint I do have is the plastic that your phone actually sits in feels a little flimsy and cheap. I purchased a screen protector just in case the phone falls out and would suggest others do the same. Other than that this product is one I would recommend.

Art Naturals Konjac Facial Sponge Set - 2 Pack (Charcoal Black & Natural White)100% Natural Great for Sensitive, Oily & Acne Prone Skin -Best Beauty Facial Scrub for gentle deep cleaning & exfoliation

These sponges are great. Prior to purchasing these I was not familiar with facial sponges or the benefits of using them. These sponges have allowed me to achieve almost flawless skin. I do not suffer from dry spots,or an oily face any longer. I love these

Tweezpro Stainless Steel Point Tweezers for Ingrown Hairs, Eyebrow Hairs, Facial Hairs, and Splinters

Overall this is a good product and is as described. I love this product for splinters, I got one the day after I got them working on a project and the splinter came right out. This is a much better method than trying to pull it out with your fingers or using a needle to push it forward. I do not like this product for facial hair remover, it is very thin so grabbing on to the hair is quite difficult. Some people may find it easier when removing facial hair, I do not.

Chef Remi Cooking Thermometer - Instant Read - Best Digital Thermometer for All Food, Meat, Turkey, Grill, BBQ, Smoker, Kitchen and Candy. LCD Screen,

This is a great cooking thermometer. If you are anything like me you are paranoid when cooking certain meats, for me its chicken and pork. I am so paranoid that multiple times I overcooked the meat and it was dry and tough. This meat thermometer has changed all of that, now my meats come out juicy and at the perfect temperature. This thermometer is so sleek in design that it fits right in the silverware drawer. It is super easy to use, just turn it on and wait but remember don't go to close to the bone or you won't get an accurate reading. The only thing that I would have liked would have been a list of the different meats and what temperature they should be cooked to. I would definitely recommend this one. :)

100% Natural Mineral-Infused Dead Sea Mud Mask 8.8 oz for Facial Treatment, Skin Cleanser, Pore Reducer, Anti Aging Mask, Acne Treatment, Blackhead Remover, Cellulite Treatment & Natural Moisturizer

I received this item at a discount in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
This product came quickly and on time, it was packaged with care in bubble wrap even though the container is plastic. The item was as described. I suffer from some spots on my face and they get rather dark. I used this product every couple days since I received it and the spots are starting to lighten.

CJHfamily 3-in-1 Multifunction Rotation Vegetable Fruit Julienne Peeler

I received this item at a discounted price in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. His item came quickly and packaged nicely and was as described.
This peeler is great I love the shape. The fact that the blades are in the top and not the side make it so much easier to use. I love that there are different uses, it can be used for potatoes and apples, another for julienneing which is my favorite part. This item is sharp and peels real quick. It also has a little cleaning tool which makes cleaning it a breeze.

Tracy's Dog Mermaid Silica Beads Turn Frequency Vibration Waterproof Massage Stick for Female Clit Stimulator Clitoral G Spot Vibrator

I received this product at a discount for my honest unbiased review. This product came when it was set to arrive and was packaged discreetly. Not only was it in a regular Amazon box but was wrapped in plastic keeping others from knowing what it was.
This product will add a little spice into the bedroom. This is a high end BOB and feels great. Having different speeds and settings makes this toy adventurous. The best part is the random button that surprises with the speed and setting. Definitely a great product if you don't have a man or you want to try different things in the bedroom.

500 mL (16.9 fluid ounce) Aluminum Sports Water Bottle

I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review.
This product came on time and packaged nicely, it was sent in a cardboard box along with the Amazon box. My fiancé has been working outside so I gave and this product test. He would leave in the morning with the bottle full of ice and just a little bit of water and come the middle of the day it would still be nice and cold for him. He said if there's one complaint he had about the bottle it's the fact that it does not actually have a top to drink from, you just open it and drink. Another thing he liked was the fact that the outside doesn't get a lot of condensation on it so it wasn't wetting the car seat or anywhere else he put the bottle down on.

Zesty Paws Pet Stain & Odor Remover

I received this item at a discount in exchange for an honest review. This package came just when it said it would be nice and quick and the bottle was well protected in the box. I have a somewhat new puppy who was not house trained yet and would have accidents on the floor and also would throw up every once in a while. As you know the smell of dog P is not very pleasant and it does take a lot sometimes to get out of the carpet. With this product I find that the smell of the pet urine is gone almost instantly and is replaced with a pleasant smell from the product. This product has lasted me a while and I still have some in there for her when she has accidents.

SunnyStreet Premium Car Window Sun Shade

I received this product at a discounted rate in exchange for an unbiased review.
This product came quickly and was just as described and pictured.
I love this product, I got it because every once in a while I take my goddaughter and the sun has been getting in her eyes lately. I love the ease of this product you just take it out and stick it on the window. I am not one that likes to deal with hooks and suction cups especially since most don't stay on the window, this product is the total opposite. I tested this product for myself by sitting in the back seat and it does an excellent job of keeping the sun out. I highly recommend

Chefs star smooth edge automatic electric can opener

This item was so easy to use that my left handed fiancé and 75 year old mother in law could use it. I love the small design, most automatic can openers are plug ins and bulky. I know having to pull that out and take up counter space is a pain but with this little guy you don't have to worry about that. I got the red one and the design is cute, it's handheld and will fit right in the silverware drawer. I have opened a variety of cans with this opener and have had very little issue. Just attach it to the cans and let it go. The only thing I have negative to say is there were two cans that the lip was a little higher on and the opener didn't open those cans.

Best Activated Charcoal Odor Absorber and Air Purifier By Sagano

Best Activated Charcoal Odor Absorber and Air Purifier By Sagano - Effective Refrigerator and Closet Deodorizer - Removes Unwanted Odor - Prevents Mold and Bacteria - Lasts up to Two Years

My fiance is a smoker and I cannot stand the smell. When I received this product I was really eager to try it, I have tried so many things to keep the smell out (air fresheners, those stick things that are supposed to absorb odors) and it's just getting too cold to leave the windows open. I put this product right on my fiances side of the bed near where he smokes and I have noticed quite a difference when walking into the room. I no longer get smacked in the face with the smell of smoke, my room finally smells normal again and when I use my air fresheners the smell stays and isn't taken over by the smell of smoke. I love that this product will last years and is "rechargeable" where else can you find a product that works and will not need to be purchased again for a couple years. I did receive this product in exchange for an honest review, this has not swayed me in anyway or taken away the integrity of this review.

Arabica coffee scrub

This product is one I must say I was pretty skeptical about, how is this scrub going to take away the dead skin and not dry my face out? Well it did! This product went on a little rough which is to be expected since it's a scrub and the smell of coffee made it that much better. I hate when scrubs and washes have a bad odor but this one didn't. I have already recommended this product to some family members. As you can see from the picture there are no dry spots on my face and it was so silky smooth after. I did receive this product for free in exchange for an honest review, this did not affect the integrity of this review.

Recent Reviews

It has been a while since I blogged due to some issues so here are some of my short recent amazon reviews.


RFID Blocking Sleeves Set by VITBLO-
Received this item for free in exchange for an honest review. My favorite part about these sleeves in the fact that they have different designs and colors making it easy for me to differentiate between the cards. I was concerned that these would not fit in my clutch since it's smaller but the thin design of the card sleeves fit nicely.


Gel Pens Set-
I received this item at a discounted rate in exchange for an honest review. This item is a good quality item, the pens work well, my only complaint is the black didn't seem to last as long as the others. They write smooth and the colors are vibrant. These are the perfect item for adult coloring books.


Stallion Apple Watch Stand-
I received this item at a discounted rate in exchange for an honest review. This item was given to my brother as a gift and he could not be happier with it. I intended to buy a watch for myself and when I didn't decided he would be the best person to test it since he can be pretty rough on things. He loves this watch holder, its small and does the job.


2-in-1 Mobile Phone Car Mount
I received this item at a discount in exchange for an honest review. I love this product and have used it since I got it, I have not used it on the air vents because I am not a fan of having my phone there. This product is sturdy and attaches easily to the windshield. I would buy this item for my family members and recommend it


Silver Open Crystal Heart Bow Ribbon Heart Love Pendant Necklace
I received this item free in exchange for an honest review. This product is absolutely beautiful. I wore it the first night I got it and couldn't keep count of the amount of compliments I received on it. It's a little heavier than I thought it would be but that shows the quality of the product. The chain is the perfect length and nice and sturdy. My goddaughter pulled it a little and it did not break. Overall great product.

Amopé Pedi Perfect Wet & Dry Electronic Cordless Foot File

Amopé Pedi Perfect Wet & Dry Electronic Cordless Foot File is one of the best products I have tried lately. I got this item from crowd tap and could not be happier. 

I used this product as soon as I got it and it works great. My feet get really dry in the winter and pedicures can get expensive, using this product is like having a pedicure my feet are so silky smooth. It only took me about five minutes for each foot.

I put this to the ultimate test and had my fiancé use it on his feet. It took him a little longer but his rough dry feet are now smooth. He even told me he can feel them now, he can feel hot water on his feet.

I highly recommend this product, go buy it! 

Sites for free stuff....join me?

Here are a few of the sites I use to receive free items, for my family and friends asking just follow the links.

PinchMe.com

elitedealclub.com/?invcode=DEJQjNwl

http://amzrc.com/?mref=19003

crowdtap.com (this one you need to do surveys, pics. etc but I have already gotten $30 in amazon gift cards)

PinchMe does samples normally once a month and you get to choose the ones that you want, completely free of charge. 

Elite deal club is a review site where you can pick items for free or at very discounted prices to review from amazon, you will need to pay shipping if you don't have prime. I just got a $43 sciatica cushion for $3. Deals go live at 10 and 2 when you get the big ticket items, but you have to be fast. At 10a you can only get one deal but at 2 you can get as many as you want. 

Amazon review club is similar to elite deal club except you can always get as many offers as you like, again you need prime for free shipping and need to write a review after. With this site you get anywhere from a certain amount of money off to a percentage off to free items. 

Crowdtap as described above requires some work, but you'll get a $5 amazon gift card for every thousand points you earn, its easier than you think. 

For those of you who do not have prime I suggest doing crowdtap first and getting some gift cards, then use them to cover the cost of shipping. Happy dealing

Glade 2in1 Moonlit Walk & Wandering Stream Scented Candles

love love love this product. My fiancé is a smoker and I hate the smell when he smokes in our room, so I have him light this candle. I didn't think it would work at first, but it masks the smell during and after he has a cigarette. I have since bought another pack of these and I would say well worth the money you spend on them without a doubt. As a candle lover I recommend this one.

Crowdtap Samples

So two of my crowdtap samples came yesterday, the slow cooker liners, and the cookie baking sheets. I was super excited to use them so I did yesterday and today in fact I used the liners for slow cooker meals. I must say that I love the liners there is practically no clean up. I cooked, took the bag out and dumped the leftovers and threw the bag away. I did wipe down the inside of the slow cooker because I am a germaphobe sometimes but there was no soaking and scrubbing. I highly recommend this product for easy clean up after a slow cooked meal. I will definitely be buying these. Below are some pictures of prep and when it first started cooking. Sorry didn't get any after photos lol. I will update after I use the baking sheets.

VOXBOX

So excited my voxbox came today. It had Way Better Snacks (Sweet Chili), ac coupon for Hormel Taco Meats (Can't wait to try), Suave Professionals shampoo and conditioner, and Dr Teal's. I cannot wait to tell you all about these items and whether they are hits or not.
I didn't wait long before trying the Sweet Chili tortilla chips, and I'm glad I did  not. These were delicious, most people like myself see chili and think hot, these were far from that. They had the perfect amount of sweet and heat, your mouth won't be on fire after a couple chips (like some other brands). I would recommend this product, it is vegan and gluten-free which are added bonuses. You can see the grains in the chip making them all that much better.

I'll update on the rest of the products as they are used!

UPDATE!
Used two more of my voxbox products the Hormel Taco Crumbles and the Dr. Teals.

Hormel Taco Crumbles, I was quite disappointed in this product. The meat was kinda rubbery and the taste wasn't really fresh tasting. It was edible so in a pinch if you need something quick they would do but I definitely wouldn't recommend this product. I would say homemade is the way to go.

Dr. Teals Lavender Epsom Salt, I used this last night because I was having horrible back pain and I must say I loved it. The fragrance was so relaxing. I would have liked it to maybe help the pain a little more but it's not a miracle product. I would recommend this product after a hard, long day. Just soak in a nice hot bath with some soothing music and Dr Teals :)

Remington Straightener/ Jane Iredale/ Clinque/ Coconut milk anti breakage serum

Hello friends! Today I am going to be reviewing Remington Straightener, Jane Iredale and Clinique foundation, and Coconut milk Anti breakage serum.

Lets start with the Remington Studio Pink Straightener and Coconut milk anti breakage serum. I love these products and use them often to straighten my hair. As you can see from the pictures below my hair is curly and frizzy. I take my hair and blow dry it, then put in the serum. This not only smells great but helps my hair stay smooth for days. Then I heat my straightener to 455 degrees and go through my hair. I recommend this straightener to anyone with hair like mine. 

Right out of the shower

The Tools you need 

                                                                                  

Look at the Frizz!

Halfway there 

All done, straight and smooth

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

Now lets look at the foundation. On the left are before and after photos using the Clinique product and on the right is the Jane Iredale product. As you can see from the before pictures I suffer from some dark spots and redness on my cheeks. With the clinique product you see that the spots are almost unrecognizable and the redness is gone. Then you look at the Jane Iredale product which slightly covers the red and spots but not as well as the clinique. I would recommend both of these products however if you have dark spots like mine I would say go with the clinique as it works better for this issue.

                                                                                                                                                        Clinique-After                         Jane Iredale-After

PINCHME!

Super excited my first ever PinchMe box came in the mail today. It included beyond dog food, for my Allie girl to test, gold bond ultimate strength and resilience, and Olay moisturizing body wash. I am so excited to try these products and let everyone know how they are, so stay tuned.



UPDATE:
Allie has eaten all of her dog food and she loved it. I am considering switching the food she currently eats. I have used the whole tube of gold bond and it has left my skin feeling smooth! There are few things better than not having dry, cracked, nasty hands in the winter time, this product came just in time. And last but not least the Olay body wash, another hit for me, I loved coming out of the shower and not having to glob on lotion for silky skin. All in all I say that this PinchMe box was 100% hit for me.

Reviews part 1

I typically give 2 weeks before I write reviews on items based on what they are. I have blankets and a bed and frame and curtains and then I have makeup etc. that sometimes I'll wait a little longer to do.

Here are all the reviews I have for you today:

Ozeri Precision II Digital Bathroom Scale (440 lbs Capacity), with Weight Change Detection Technology & StepOn Activation  
I received this item for free for an honest review. I love this scale, right before I got this offer I purchased a scale and guess what, that scale was returned. Some people said they had problems with the weights varying but I did not. I did however notice that if you move the scale especially in bathrooms that have the textured flooring that it will differ, mainly because the surface is not even. I stepped on this scale multiple times in the same spot to ensure I got the same weight, After about 2 weeks of use I see no problems with this scale.


Lucid 10" Memory Foam Dual-Layered Mattress, Queen
I am in love with this mattress, my fiance and I have been trying to find a mattress we felt would be good for us both especially with myself having a herniated disk. We went out on a limb and based on others reviews purchased this item. I could not be happier we did so here I am writing my own so everyone knows how incredibly comfortable this mattress is. We have had this mattress a couple of weeks now and have no complaints. It does say to let it rise for 48 hours, we waited not even a whole day and it rose just fine. This mattress makes falling asleep and staying asleep easy.

Sleep Master SmartBase Mattress Foundation/Platform Bed Frame/Box Spring Replacement/Quiet Noise-Free/Maximum Under-bed Storage, Queen
This frame has proven to be very sturdy, my fiance and I are not small and this frame has held both of us and our pitbull with no problems. There has been no bending, screeching, any signs at all of the frame not being sturdy.

LUCID Premium Hypoallergenic 100% Waterproof Mattress Protector - 15 Year Warranty - Vinyl Free - Queen
This product has been tested and receives my gratitude and seal of approval. My puppy peed on our bed A LOT and the only thing that saved my mattress topper and be was this wonderful waterproof pad. I am so thankful that this product has proven true to what it says and was not a disappointment, especially since the bed is only two weeks old. Thank you LUCID.

Honesty is the best policy

I am new to this blogging, so let's begin there. This blog will contain honest reviews for items I receive for free, discounted, through my Ipsy, Walmart beauty box subscriptions,  and Target beauty box. There are a few things I have learned from researching doing reviews online that I would like to share with you. First, not everything is free and there are times that you may not get an offer, do not get mad, just wait for the next opportunity. There are so many sites out there that offer samples, get them, review them, and maybe you will start getting more. I started out at Amazon review club and thought they were awesome, still do, but now I have quite a few more. I have learned that reviewing does not mean putting what someone wants to hear, that will get you nowhere, Honesty is the best policy when it comes to reviews. People do not want to read how great a product is and then get it and it's not what they expect. I will be reviewing my boxes as they come in. Hope you enjoy, please follow me for updates!
