Cablex 3Pack 6FT iPhone Lightning Cable

There are 3 charging cords in this set and they work well. They are white so not distracting in the office environment where bright colors are frowned upon.  They charge my iPhone 6 plus quickly and are well made so they will hold up to a lot of use without breaking.  It is nice to have three cables in this set so I can use one in the car, one at the office and one at home. Continue reading

Instant Pop Up Tent for 2 Person by Vitchelo

This tent is a lot of fun. You can set it up in the backyard for the kids to play in, use it on your camping trips or even to change in at the beach for the day. It is also fun to set up inside the house for the kids to have their own “room” when they come visiting grandma or if they want a neat playroom for the day. Continue reading

Zoodinos Magazine

The Zoodinos website states: ‘Dinosaurs come alive for kids in our new Dinosaurs book series from Zoobooks. Each edition in the Dinosaur series follows the award-winning Zoobooks approach: combining spectacular scientifically-correct illustrations and vibrant photos.

I am actually very impressed with these magazines and my homeschooled grandchildren will have a blast learning about dinosaurs from these colorful, well written magazines.

There are poems and stories that are fun and interesting. The pictures are very realistic and engaging. A plethora of scientific information adding fact to fictional stories bring the dinosaur era alive for young aspiring minds. Continue reading

Glucosamine Chondroitin Natural Dog Supplement Soft Chews Organic Joint Relief

Whenever you have a dog who needs supplements, the first thing you do is find a supplement that is healthy and will address whatever the dog needs help with.  Older dogs tend to have joint problems, and Penny is no exception.  When she takes her supplements regularly, she has pretty good movement and can get around fairly well for being a cancer survivor and 14 years old.   Continue reading

Easy Snorkel Mask – easy to use and fun!

If you are tired of struggling with your mask when you are enjoying the sun and water, things just got a lot better.  The Easy Snorkel Mask is comfortable to wear, simple to put on, doesn’t fog up and doesn’t leak.  

You can actually spend time enjoying snorkeling without fighting the equipment.  This is a full face mask so you can breathe through your nose and mouth comfortably with no breathing tubes to bother with, and you have a 180 degree view.

I love to kayak and swim in the Missouri river.  It is so peaceful and enjoyable to watch the turtles glide under your feet and see the fish moving gracefully through the water through an easy to use comfortable snorkel mask.  I can lose all the stress of the day effortlessly with an afternoon in the water with this well made, intelligently designed full facemask.  

This mask just arrived and I have done an unboxing video so you can see it for yourself, instead of simply looking at pictures online and hoping for the best.  It does fit well and doesn’t pull my hair.  I have long blonde hair and am tender-headed so that is a huge plus for me.

If you would like to see more videos and read additional information about this mask, you can go to the company website here:  https://easysnorkelmask.com/

Jadience Slimming Soak

I found an all natural herbal bath soak that is just what I needed and wanted. The scent is wonderful, as you breathe it in, you can feel the stress of the day leaving your body and mind.

This is a slimming soak that is promoted to help detox the body to stimulate the metabolism and encourage fat loss (for us ladies over 50, we can use all the help we can get in that area), and will also tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite.

I imagine that will take place over time and with continued use.  For now, I am just thrilled to have a product I can use that is healthy and lets me unwind in the tub after a long day. Continue reading

GKHair Hair Taming System Conditioner

When I first opened the bottle of the conditioner, I saw that it was more like a cream than a lotion as the consistency was thicker. This meant it was going to be easier to apply as it wasn’t runny and I would be able to apply it easier but putting some in the palm of my hand and rubbing my hands together.

To prepare my hair for the hair conditioner I needed to wash my hair with excellent quality shampoo.  

It is best if you have the same brand of shampoo, but I didn’t so I used what I had on hand and washed my hair twice to make sure it was squeaky clean.   Continue reading

Photoshop Tutorial by John Slavio

I bought this book on Amazon to load on my Kindle to read.

I have Photoshop and have used it for years.

I wanted to see what was considered a “beginner” book.

I also wanted to see what the author considered important information for inclusion in the book for folks who have never used Photoshop before.

This book is a very basic book for those who are unfamiliar with the layout in Photoshop and will help them understand how to do basic tasks so they can begin to build on Photoshop mastery. Continue reading

Burn-out #acnegone review

Hemp spray for removing acne scars and healing skin….naturally.

This is a metal bottle that has a spray solution in it that you use after you have washed and dried your face to be able to get the full effects of healing from it. The ingredients are Aloe Vera water, sweet almond oil, witch hazel, German blue chamomile oil, lavender essential oil, vitamin E oil, polysorbate, germaben II preservative, distilled water, melaleuca tea tree oil, elite fractionally distilled hemp extract (250 mg Canabidoil Complex), so you can see that there are a number of wonderful healing ingredients in this solution. There is a total of 2.7 oz in this misting spray bottle.

To use, you shake the bottle really well to mix up the contents and spray it on. I would test it on your wrist first, to see if you have any negative reactions to it, that’s what I did. I have sensitive skin and had no problems.

There is an essential oil scent to it as tea tree oil does have a strong scent, but the lavender in the solution counteracts it. I thought it would have a consistency like water but it is more like dry oil. I sprayed it on the underside of my arm to test and expected it to pretty much dry to nothing but had a chuckle when my arms are sticking to my desk so it’s interesting typing this LOL.

I would recommend using this at bedtime on your face or wherever you have acne or skin problems you are working on healing. It is easy to use and effective…and no, the smell does not soften and go away, it stays so don’t try to use this and go out for the day, you are going to smell like tea tree oil – not unpleasant but it does have a scent like you used a household cleaner.
