Crave PRECISIO Tweezers



These are not your average tweezers. I usually spend about $6 on tweezers. I figured why spend more money tweezers are tweezers they all work the same, Right? But these tweezers changed my mind! When I read they were professional grade stainless steel tweezers with a ultimate precision slant tip, I couldn't wait to try them and see how they work. They definitely live up to that statement! I was able to get each and every little hair with ease to sculpt the perfect eyebrow shape; and with the amazing quality of the slant tip I was able to get a good hold on every little hair and pluck it out without pain or having to make several attempts to get it out. With all the other tweezers I have purchased in the past, it was very hard and painful to sculpt my eyebrows. When I used the other tweezers in the past it was very hard to get ahold of the hair. When I tried to pluck it out the tweezers would tug at the hair and loose their grip or the hair would snap, so I had to make several attempt to get the hair out with is very painful and time consuming. It was also nearly impossible to get the really small hairs close to the brow without ripping out surrounding hairs which messes up the shape you are trying to get. I am so happy to have finally found the perfect pair of tweezers that really work. My brows look amazing now. 

These tweezers sell for $14.99, sure they cost more than your typical drugstore tweezers, but they save you time and perfectly shape your brow without the pain.
So if you're tired of those cheap tweezers that hurt you, and want a pair that does what its supposed to without causing you pain you can purchase the Crave PRECISIO Tweezers HERE! Use this code: PREC2525 for 25% off!

I got to try these free to write my honest review and I could not be happier!

The powder potion is a fine powder that transforms into a lightweight, velvety pomade. It has advanced color protection.

I used this a few times so far it is a great way to give your hair the beachy wave look. It gave my hair a lot of volume and texture that last all day without leaving my hair feeling gritty. I also used it after I straightened my hair I put a little on my fingertips, melted it and used it to take care of my fly aways.

Zingo Word Builder By ThinkFun Review


Zingo!Word Builder


My family loves games. Every weekend we get together and have game night. This past weekend we played Zingo Word Builder, its a fun game and it helps kids learn to spell. Its a lot like Bingo. It comes with 1 Zingo Zinger, 72 Letter Tiles, 6 Double-sided Zingo Cards and Instruction and a Learning Guide. It is a 2-6 player game. The double-sided card is yellow on one side for beginners and the other side is orange for advanced which was great because the younger kids used the yellow side while the older kids used orange and the adults used 2 cards to level the playing field.

Petunia Skincare Vitamin C Serum Review And Giveaway



Petunia Skincare Vitamin C Serum




I have been using this product for a little over a week now, and I am already seeing results. It is easy to apply the Vitamin C Serum, it is dispensed with an eyedropper and a little goes a long way. I apply the serum after I wash my face and allow it to dry before adding my moisturizer/spf or my night cream over the top. It leaves my skin smooth, soft and glowing all day long. I have combination skin and this serum hydrates my dry skin, without leaving the rest of my face greasy or breaking me out. After just a few uses I noticed my pores were smaller, my skin was firmer and my fine lines were hardly visible. This serum is 100% natural, so you don't have to worry about putting chemicals or parabens on your face like you do with some other products. It is also cruelty free, made in the USA, and has a 100% money back guarantee. It is hard to find a product that does all this at an affordable price, so I am so happy to have found this. I did receive this will definitely continue to use this product and purchase more when my sample runs out. Be sure to enter my giveaway below for a chance to win a bottle for yourself.

Yorkie Splash And Shine Review And Giveaway!!!


Yorkie Splash And Shine


Yorkie Splash And Shine is a great product. Their products all smell amazing. I received the shampoo, conditioner, and detangling spray. The shampoo and conditioner worked great it removed the dirt without drying out his skin like some others brands I have tried. It left his coat soft and smelling great, next I used the detangler shine spray and it worked like a dream. I sprayed it on the brush and his coat and the brush glided through the hair easily. I usually hate brushing time and so does he because of all the tangles, I have even been tempted to use my spray in conditioner on him. I am so happy I finally have a product that works and makes my life easier. You can also use the spray daily to keep their hair tangle free, shiny, and smelling amazing in between washes. I will definitely be purchasing this when I run out.


You can find out more information about these and other products on Yorkie Splash And Shine's website HERE and use this coupon code: KHS72D9UDUTT8 for 5% off anything on the site.

Be sure to enter the giveaway below for a chance to win a travel set which includes shampoo, conditioner, and the detangling spray. You must be 18 to enter and reside in the US.




A little about the company:

Yorkie Splash was created out of a need for a shampoo to fit the specific needs of Yorkshire terriers. After trying numerous products, we here at Walnut Hill decided that there just wasn't anything on the market that worked well for every type of Yorkie - sensitive skin, coarse hair, cottony coats, silky coats, dry coats, or oily coats. We finally decided that keeping 5 different kinds of products around was just not manageable. So, we endeavored to make our own! After a lot of research, consulting with experts, and some trial and error on scent, we came up with a "formula" that did exactly what we wanted it to - make every type of Yorkie coat look and feel amazing, and smell great, too. After using our shampoo on our own Yorkies, friends began asking how they could get their hands on some of our shampoo. So, we bottled a little. Pretty soon, word of mouth created a buzz that has continued to grow.

Ozeri WeightMaster Review


Ozeri WeightMaster 
Digital Bathroom BMI Scale

WeightMaster 400lbs digital bathroom scale is an amazing product. It is a great weight managment tool. What sets this scale apart from others is its Auto Recognition Technology. You are able to set up a profile on this scale, so it recognizes you the next time you use it. Its display will light up red if you have gained weight and light up green if you have lost weight. It has a 7 day memory for people like me who like to weigh themselves everyday to keep track of your results. It also measures your BMI (body mass index, body fat measurement based on your weight and height). This scale is a great motivator and will help you stay on track and reach your weight/health goals.

Shandali Hot Yoga Towel Review


Shandali Hot Yoga Towel

Finally a towel that stays dry while absorbing sweat. Other towels I have used in the past to do Bikram yoga (hot yoga) get wet when i'm working out, which makes them slippery and that can lead to injury. This towel didn't slide around on me at all, which is great I hate having to stop working out to adjust my towel. It is 26.5" x 70" and covered my mat perfectly. The fabric is high quality, drys quickly and it is so soft. Its easy to wash, I love that I can just toss this towel right in the washer and dryer when I need to. It wears well so its going to last me a long time. I also use this towel to dry off during rest times at the gym, because this towel drys so quickly I was able to use it repeatedly during my workout. I'm thinking about purchasing a 2nd one for my beach/pool bag as well. I got mine in pink but it also comes in gray. Its about half the price of other hot yoga towels and 100 times better then them! You can get one for yourself on Amazon HERE. It would also make a great gift for someone in your life who likes to work out or go to the beach. Want to know more about this product? Check out Shandali WEBSITE HERE.

Orblue Propresser Stainless Steel Garlic Press Review







Propresser Garlic Press



This Garlic Press saves me so much time and 
money. I'm Italian and I use garlic a lot and I usually mince it by hand, sometimes I cheat and buy the jar of minced garlic at the grocery store which is pretty expensive when you use it as much as I do. I didn't even have to peel the garlic cloves I just put the clove in pressed it and the minced garlic came out the peels stayed in the basket. And I wasn't left with smelly garlic hands which is a plus because I usually have to wash them a couple times and use scented lotions after I cut garlic to get rid of the smell on my hands.
