Review: Thirty Scary Tales

While I would not call these stories scary, they did however keep me on my toes and keep my attention. Though I am not much of a short story reader, I did get through all 30 tales within 2 nights. Not sure if I would go back and reread it over and over, but there are a few stories I might go back to and read every now and than.
At the end of each short story, the author gives information of how she came to write the story, and where it came from. It was a nice addition to the tales, instead of just random short tales mushed together in one book.
This book is available from Amazon on your Kindle supported device. The book is currently priced at .99, which a great deal for the amount of story you receive! Follow this link to get started on a creepy journey!

Review: Terry Treetop Finds New Friends

When I got the chance to download this book onto my Kindle supported device, I was pretty excited to read it with my daughter. My daughter is 15 months and she does not have much attention span for even a short story at the moment. I figured I would bring my device to work and read it with my students(age 3). They seemed to enjoy this story much more than my daughter.
This story teaches patience, persistence, and even motivation. Terry's father builds him a new tree house, but he is feeling a bit lonely, so he journeys out to find a new friend to keep him company. He encounters a few friends on his adventures, but they are all too busy to join Terry Treetop. Does Terry ever find a new friend? You can purchase this story on Amazon for your Kindle supported device(currently .99) and find out with your little one!

Review: Adovia Natural Sulfur Soap Bar

What is Adovia Natural Soap Bar?

This is a bar designed specifically for those with acne and oily skin(can be used on your face or body). The bar has ingredients such as olive oil, dead sea minerals, sulfur, and aloe vera extract, just to name a few. 

Sulfur has great antiseptic, anti-fungal, and antibacterial properties, but can be a bit drying to most skin. Adovia recommends that you start off slow when using this bar, don't go using it twice a day every day. Try using the bar once every other day or even every 2 days. Slowly work your way up to where you want to be. If you notice your skin drying too much, try to skip a day or cut down on how many times a day you use it. 

How do I use it?

This is pretty much used like any normal bar of soap.

1. Wet skin where applying and hands(or whatever you are using to apply). I personally use my Konjac Charcoal Sponge to apply the soap bar.

2. Rub soap on hands or item being used. I rub my wet sponge across the soap bar about 3-4 times and that is plenty for my face! 

3. Apply to skin and rinse.

First Impressions

I've never been one for sulfur based acne products and I personally was a bit hesitant to try this. I took one for the team and used it, boy am I glad I did! This product is great. The bar does not have a scent to it, so I don't need to worry about having different fragrances on my face is a choose to apply my vitamin C serums, which always seem to have a scent to them. I have been using this product for about a month and it has done a great job keeping my acne at bay. I may get an occasional pimple here and there, which is perfectly fine with me, I will then apply a spot treatment and go on my way. Using the sponge with the soap has made me use less product than I normally would, so I see lots of use coming from this soap bar! It looks like I barely made a dent in the soap and i've been using it once a day for a month. I may up my use to twice a day when the summer comes back around because I always tend to break out in the summer months due to my skin producing more sweat and oils. I hope they keep this soap bar around for the long run, because I will be repurchasing this bar for sure! Thank you Adovia for sending me this product for testing purposes.

Review: BakeitFun Baking Mat

What is BakeitFun Baking Mat? / First Impressions

The BakeitFun baking mat is a non-stick silicone mat that you can place on your baking sheets to give your baking sheet extra protection while you are cooking. I use silicone mats for cookies and my cookies always turn out great. This mat also has printed circles on it which helps aid proper placement if you happen to be baking cookies. No more worrying about the cookies baking together! 

This mat is also great if you are making any type of pastry on your counter top and just want that extra protection on your prepping surface. Say you are making sugar cookies. You can place the dough right on the mat to roll it out, cut your cookies, remove excess dough, then transfer the mat right onto your baking sheet to go into the oven. 

I also love that it has the measurements on the edges. I have made soft pretzels on this baking mat and it was very easy to get uniform sizes to ensure they would all bake evenly. Silicone mats are great because you don't need to worry about the extra fat or grease from using a butter/shortening stick or spray to keep your baked goods from sticking. Though if you are baking sugar cookies, what is a few extra calories from a non-stick spray(I won't tell!). 

Baking mats are also great for easy clean up! If you are anything like me, and hate the clean up after baking/cooking, then look no farther. I am usually one to use parchment paper while I bake anything, because I HATE to scrub pans. I like that the baking mats are reusable, so I don't have to worry about running out of parchment paper while I am baking. I just take the baking mat from the baking sheet, give it a quick rinse with soap and water, dry, and you're good to go for the next round. Most of the time the baking sheet won't need more than a quick wipe down with a damp cloth.

Review and coupon code: Whip Lash Eyelash Curler

What is it and what do you get?

This is pretty much your run of the mill eyelash curler. You get the curler, 10 extra pads, and a funky looking box that looks pretty cool, in my opinion! Whip Lash also gives you a lifetime guarantee, if you are not 100% satisfied, you can get a full refund or your money back. People have also been stating that their replacement pads are not fitting right, I have not had the issue, but just a simple email to Whip Lash and they will replace them at no charge. 

How do I use it?

If you have never used an eyelash curler before, it's really simple. Don't let it look intimidating! It's as simple as placing the curler close to your lash line and squeezing the handles. I like to add the extra step of heating it under the hair dryer for about 10 seconds to warm it up, this helps the curl hold better. After curling, you can leave your lashes alone or apply your favorite mascara.

First Impressions

I had an old eyelash that I rarely used because I was so intimidated by it. I broke out my old curler one day and fell in love! I have not really used one because the pad on my old curler was getting a bit old and dingy. I was looking for a new one, when I got the email to try out Whip Lash, I do not regret it at all. I didn't have much luck with eyelash curlers when I first started to use them because I was too scared to place them close enough to curl my lashes the right way. Eyelash curling is like when you use eyeliner for the first time to line your waterline, it really takes confidence and just going for it.
