Beautonics Advanced Hair Straightener Brush review

I am a Mom with an office job that calls for me to be well groomed every day. I tell you, the last thing I really want to do in the morning is wake up an hour early to do my makeup and hair. But I do because it's just necessary for my line of work. I was so dang excited when Beautonics gave me the the opportunity to review their brush, and let me keep it in exchange! Now I have had the brush for a week and done the homework so here is what I have found:

THIS BRUSH IS AMAZING!!!!! Seriously, I have medium to thick hair and it takes me 5 minutes at the maximum to straighten the morning mess out and get it looking nice and sleek and shiny! (Which gives me an extra 25 minutes to sleep in the morning. Double score!) Something this brush has that a straightening iron does not have, is it can also add some volume to my hair if I brush from the under side of my hair, upward. If you don't want the volume, just doing a few strokes down from the outside will work also. But I like my volume and the straightening irons I have always used, have always left my hair flat, flat, flat!

Something to keep in mind is that, even though this is a brush and not an iron, it still works using heat so it is still really important to get a heat protecting spray. If you don't have one already and you're not sure what to go with, here's a link to my personal favorite spay. (I'm all about cheap and effective and this spray is both.)

Back to my new awesome brush.... It has a button that you have to push for three seconds to get the brush to turn on. It also has a + button and a - button. On the off chance that you hadn't figured out what those are for, they are the heat setting buttons. You can have the brush read in Celsius or in Fahrenheit, whichever you prefer. There is a guide that comes with the brush on how to use it and how to determine the heat setting that would be best for you.

I only have one complaint about this brush. The temperature buttons are right in a spot that I would normally put my hand so I have to consciously avoid them. This isn't the end of the world, but hopefully the company will change that whenever the next model comes out.

I am very happy with this brush and I wish that I had brought it into my life sooner! :)

Leader Accessories Fuga 11pc car seat cover set review

We have a beater car that we use for family outings, hauling stuff, kids, dogs and pretty much everything that can get messy. This care seat cover set has been great for keeping the car looking nice and it was easy to install.

I really like that I have been able to wash the seat covers without dam
age. They are thin though, so they will not prevent liquid spills from seeping through to the seat underneath.

I received this car seat cover set at a discounted price in exchange for an honest review, however I would happily pay full price for this set if ever the need arises again.

First Botany Cosmeceuticals Tea Tree Oil body and foot scrub review

I really love body scrubs and tea tree oil is a favorite of mine so I was so pleased to get the opportunity to purchase the First Botany Cosmeceuticals Tea Tree Oil scrub at a discounted price in exchange for a review!

I really love the smell of this scrub! (Well, is smells just like tea tree oil, so of course I do!) Very nice, light, fresh scent. It exfoliates beautifully and it leaves my skin so soft I do not need moisturizer after!

This scrub should not be used over cuts or when shaving (which is a bummer because it
makes my skin SO soft!) and I have KP on my arms that flares up a bit with it.

I would absolutely recommend this scrub, it really works wonderfully and the scent is perfect for a stress relief bath!

80% HCA 100% Pure Maximum Strength Garcinia Cambogia Premium Extract review

https://momsblogformoms.blogspot.com/b/post-preview?token=fFbIXFQBAAA.Uc9uKZl2KVqt_-IFYk3bxmjfiuYXS2btsbosyV0KsBp32yJTe56k59tct8TvmvzMcgv25qwWd0ZKYVj8AGiPQw.sI0CQ0CIocp62UPgtnCLzA&postId=4583003141059681535&type=POSTI have always been a skeptic of the Garcinia Cambogia supplements so I was so pleased when I had the opportunity to get a bottle at a discounted price in exchange for an honest review.

I have been taking these for almost two weeks now and I have been shocked to see 6 pounds shed off of my body in that short period of time! Especially because losing weight after the birth of my last child has been impossible for me, even with healthy eating and activity.

My husband started taking these as well, but he did not see much for results so he ultimately stopped taking them. After seeing my results, he decided to give them another try and keep going with them this time. The average weight loss results, according to the company is 3-4 pounds per month. My body seems to be really reacting quickly with them though, so clearly each body handles them differently.

At the end of the day, these have been great for me and I will continue taking them until I reach my personal weight goals - which seem so much more attainable now!

3 Way Cat Tunnel Toy review

Our kitty, Buster was very pleased to have the opportunity to review this three way cat tunnel! For the past couple of weeks she has been trying it out and after careful deliberation, this is the conclusion she has come to:

Initial thoughts: At first it was a little bit scary. I mean the thing is huge and makes a lot of noise. When alone in the room with just Mom, the center of the tunnel began making a slight crunching sound. Had to check it out! BOOM! into the middle of the tunnel, this thing is AMAZING!

With three dark tunnels to investigate and a crunchy center to continually attack, I'm not sure what else a cat could possibly want in life aside from food! 

When it's time to wind down from play, this tunnel makes a nice dark place to hang out and sleep. 

When company comes over mom folds it up like a pancake and slides it between the dresser and the wall. Good thing it opens and closes easily because by the time those people leave I'm ready to play again!

Mom received this toy at a discounted price in exchange for a review. This tunnel is great for play and sleep and we would definitely recommend it!

Check this tunnel out on Amazon and don't forget to watch my video playing in the tunnel! Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Cat-Tunnel-Toy-Entertained-Exercising/product-reviews/B00FKPTIB2/ref=cm_cr_dp_synop?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&sortBy=recent#R2959BV5FEUF59

Bronze shower curtain hooks review and link to product

I have been recently re-vamping our bathroom and I was so pleased that I was given the opportunity to exchange a review on these beautiful hooks for a discount.

I am so glad that I did because I really love them! Aside from the fact that they really add a nice look to the bathroom, they slide really well along the curtain rod. The easy sliding is not something that I had even considered when purchasing them. I was pleasantly surprised the first day when I went to pull the curtain open and..... No catching, no tugging, they just slid right past.  I am now officially "hooked" (Nerdy pun intended)

Back to my original reason for purchasing them, I am trying to make the bathroom look nicer all around, and they certainly do their part. They look really nice and classy just as I had hoped.

If  you are smarter than me, you will apply the hooks to the curtain and then slide them on the end of the curtain rod in order to avoid having to pull them far apart in attempt to keep them from scratching your curtain rod. If you ARE like me, you will be happy to know that they will pull apart just fine and push back together looking just the same as they started.

And to top it all off, these hooks are rust proof with a 10 year guarantee from the company. All things considered, I am very happy that we purchased these curtain hooks and I will most certainly be happy to recommend them!

Angel Crafts 12" x 12" Self Adhesive Vinyl Sheets (35 PACK) review

I am a novice at using vinyl, but I have always been SO curious about it so I was very pleased when I was given the opportunity to get this pack at a discounted price in exchange for a review. 

Even though I am a new with vinyl work and I have no "equipment" for doing vinyl work, these sheets were really simple to use. I was able to cut my design with a scissors or razor blade ( I found the razor blade easier) and just peel the vinyl cut out off of the sheet. The material is really easy to work with. I was able to stretch it and move it around as needed while applying it and it still worked just fine. You can apply the vinyl to pretty much any flat surface. My first try was on my computer and I think it turned out looking super cute!

The company that sells the sheets is a new business that is working hard to make a great product and it shows in their customer service. Shortly after ordering the product, I received an email explaining a bit about the company and asking for any feedback that they can use to improve their product. I really think that they care about making a quality product and they have really hit the mark on this one!

With 35 sheets of BEAUTIFUL assorted colors, I will continue to have SO much fun with this down the road and there is a lot there so it will really last a long time. My only regret is not having found this product sooner.
