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.

Mini backpack by KAKA
Just right for taking a walk with my dog in the park, I can carry his treats and some of my things. It is well sewn. Color: Black
I was looking for a way to take my things with me when I walked the dog in the park without having to either stuff it in my pockets and risk it falling out or getting stuck using my large purse and having to drag that around with me with only one hand left to try to hang on to the dog’s leash.
This mini backpack is just perfect for what I needed and I can adjust it so if the dog has lots of energy like at the beginning of the walk, I can wear it across the body so it stays put.
After my dog has run some of his energy out, I can move the mini backpack so it is over one shoulder.
There is plenty of room in this mini backpack for my keys, wallet, phone, book, chapstick, dog treats, comb, and headscarf.
It’s not quite big enough for a water bottle, and the front pocket could have held a little more if there weren’t tucks in the fabric on either side of the bottom, but the backpack is very well sewn and the zippers slide easily.
The reason I chose this brand is because I purchased another backpack from them and was very happy with the quality.
I have purchased other backpacks and they were made out of thin mesh material that fell apart when I tried to clean them, but the backpack I bought from this company held up very well and I can clean them, too.

Love You A Little S’More Mug 11 oz
This mug has the cutest little saying on it and is well made – great for the
You know when kids are having a tough time and they just need to know you love them, no matter what?
That’s what this mug is for. I have a little granddaughter who has been through the wringer ever since she got here to this earth.
Many hospital stays, lots of prayers and hard work and she is home, going to school and doing well, except…sometimes when she is having a hard day…….she just needs to know everything is okay and she is loved.
I tell her all the time but with this cute mug, she knows I love her with this darling reminder every time she goes to get a drink, especially when I am not there because we live far away from each other.
This sweet little mug is exactly what she needs to put a smile on her face.
It is well made and even if she accidentally knocks it off the table onto the floor, it can take it.
This is a good quality mug, not just a cheap dollar store type, and it is solid, sturdy and okay for kids to use daily.
The handle is just perfect for her to hold as it is comfortable and designed to be able to hang on to the mug without slipping because it is just the right size for her fingers to hold it.
Do you need one for your special someone? I got it here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06ZYJ1S8C Continue reading

Top Koality Mom and Dad Ceramic Coffee Mug Gift Set
These mugs were purchased as a special gift for adoptive parents.
I thought about what they would need and they already had clothing,
diapers, kids stuff but nothing that was for them.
I love these mugs – I have another set that has elephants on them that I bought for my
desk – and I know they are really well made and comfortable to hold so
I am giving them to the new parents.
The way I see it, with sleep deprivation for not only one but two new little ones, they are going to get a lot of use out of these mugs filled with coffee to stay awake!
They are really stable so if the new parents are half asleep in the middle of the night enjoying a cuppa, they can easily set the mug down without it tipping over.
The neat thing about this mugs is that they came in a box that says “Life is a Gift” on it and that is perfect for this present I am giving.

Elephant Mugs – so adorable.
These mugs are so adorable that I just couldn’t wait for them to get here. Drink hot chocolate or herbal tea out of them? Yes, I guess I could have because they are so well made and their handles just the right size to hold comfortably, but that is not why I got them. I needed something to put a smile on my face when I was stuck pounding the keyboard at the office. These mugs are just the ticket. I needed a sturdy holder or two for my desk for all the markers, pens, pencils, clips, rulers and accessories I have all over the desk, so I am now using these darling elephant mugs to keep my space tidy, efficient and fun. The mugs are stable and don’t tip over and are the best idea for keeping my desk uncluttered and more efficient. Continue reading
