Keurig Reusable Refillable Coffee Filter Pod by Fill 'n Brew







Coffee is such a way of life that there has been so many ways to brew coffee and ways to drink it.  With all the types of coffee drinks, there has been many machines made to make them.  The best machines that have come out are the single serve cup machines with the coffee pods.   These are great for those that like different types of coffee or drinks, such as hot chocolate, tea, and more.  This has allowed people to experience different items without having to drink a full pot.  With these the coffee or other comes in little pods to insert in your brewer so you can brew a single cup.   

Some of us like the single brew idea but we like to buy our coffee in bulk.  I try many coffees and they come in bags, not single serve, yet the full pot idea is just too much for me to drink.  That is where these reusable and refillable coffee filter pods come in.  You can fill these with a single serving scoop of coffee, insert into your brewer, and get your one cup of delicious hot joe.   

These are labeled as Keurig but they do fit most other single serve pod brewers.  They are a great size and have stainless steel inside to filter your cup of coffee just right.  They are made of a sturdy, brown,  BPA free plastic, and the dolphin cutout on the side are so cute.  They work really well and with three to the pack you have plenty to use for different brews.   I think this is an ingenious idea as it saves trash and landfill space reusing these.

Environmentally safe and great economically you can't go wrong if you own a compatible system (check your machines specifications).

Balaclava: Full Face Mask with Hood (2-pack) by UrbaFitness






My sons have had to work outside for jobs, walk to school, do yard work and through it all we have tried hoods, face masks, and scarves for them to protect them.  Nothing has worked, besides who wants to wear a winter face mask in the summer to protect their face from flying grass while weed eating?   These are problems we have come up with in their activities, if it isn't the grass it is the wind, snow, dirt, rain, etc.   

So when my son saw that I got the chance to review these Balaclavas he was excited.  He made it well known he wanted one.  I have two sons so the 2-pack was awesome!!  When we received them the first one to it was my son. Austin.  He put it on an it fit really well.  He was excited to find out the different ways he could wear it.  It can be worn both open and closed, as a scarf, hat, neck gaiter, half mask, full mask, doo rag and so much more.  Austin decided to use it to cover his mouth since he had a cold.  He also used it to cover his head while weed eating the yard and realized how great it protects his face and yet he can still breather through it.  Little did we know at the time that he could get it wet and wring it out so that it could keep you cool while wearing. 

The material is a thin polyester, which makes it easy to breathe through and yet keep you warm.  It also makes it washable and easy to care for. The material stretches for a great fit on all who use it, one size fits all.  This one comes in black but you can find them in different colors. 

I think will be really great for all those who do activities outside, or for those who have to bear the weather.   With all the ways you can wear them isn't about time you bought some for your family?

Heaven's Bliss Detangling Brush






Many of us are vain about our hair, we like it clean, brushed, and styled.   Yet, if you have fine hair or long hair brushing can be a painful task.  If your hair is like mine, it tangles really easy and brushing is not always and easy chore.   Damaged and treated hair can also cause problems.  We go through the routines daily just to look our best. 

Now we can have a brush that goes through our hair, detangles without pain.  The Detangling Brush from Heaven's Bliss is made for just that.  This detangling brush has been designed with two different layers of black, plastic bristles, one longer and one shorter.  As you brush through your hair the longer ones get closer to the scalp while the shorter ones work further down.  This bristle method helps detangle hair while brushing through it and without the pain and hassle.  

The handle is shaped ergonomically so it fits into your hand properly and makes it easy to hold the brush properly for easier control and handling while brushing your hair.   It is lightweight, making it easier for holding and maneuvering.  It goes through wet an dry hair with ease.   The brush comes in four stylish colors: hot pink, luscious lavender, rose red, and lime green. 

I have had my niece, who has waist long and thick Peruvian hair, try this brush and she is able to use it without any problems or pain unlike with other brushes.

Selfie Stick, Foldable Bluetooth Monopod by cliqStick





Selfies are everywhere!! The joy of photography has hit everyone at some point or another.  With the smart phones it has made it easy to take a pic and share with all our friends and on all social sites.  We share our food, our trips, our family,  and the tricky photos of us with a group or a background.  With the magic of the selfie stick we can easily get those group photos and backgrounds just right. 
The next trick is to find the right stick.  I mean it is a pain getting the right pic angle then having to figure out how to get the camera to click the pic with it being on a stick 3 feet away.   The other trick, how to take a selfie stick with us everywhere, they can be kind of bulky and take up space.

This is where the Selfie Stick from cliqStick comes in.   This selfie stick is small and compact. It has a foldable mobile clip so that you can save space while storing in your purse, glove box, or other areas.  The clip adjusts to get the right angle for your camera.  You can fit any phone into the clip and not have to worry about adjusting the clip, it closes tightly on your phone for safer photographing.  

The selfie pole extends out 3 ft and has a bluetooth button on the handle that can connect to your phone so when ready all you have to do is click the bluetooth button and the picture is taken.  The handle also has a non slip grip for safer control of your selfie stick.   

The instructions are fairly easy to understand even though the languages are a bit intertwined.  There are instructions on the back of the box that is the best way to understand how to work your stick. 

I like the white color and the bluetooth aspect.   I find this to be a really nice stick, and even though I am not a big selfie person I am keeping this in my purse for those moments in time that you just have to preserve.

Stanzino® Women's V neck 3/4 Sleeve Casual Tunic





Style is something that is constantly changing causing us to have an ever changing wardrobe.  This can be fun, but highly costly at times.  Which makes it nice when you can find something you like  at a reasonable price.  I have a pear shape body and tend to hide my hips under longer shirts.  Love them!   So when I had the chance the review this tunic I was excited!!  

Stanzino Woman;s V neck 3/4 Sleeve Casual tunic has a unique hem cut.  It carries a longer curved hem in the back with a shorter curved hem in the front giving it a unique long look on the sides.  The tunic is made of a light, thin material that consists of  79% Polyester 18% Rayon 3% Spandex.  For some the material may be too sheer, but I find that the black seems to cover all.   

The tunic comes in black, olive, gray, navy, red, and brown.  You can find sizes ranging from small to XXXX-large.  They do run a bit small so I do recommend ordering a size or two up.   The fit is nice and I like the length. These would look nice with a pair of leggings or jeans, pair with boots or sandals and you have it made.    They are machine washable  and easy to care for.

Eucalyptus oil is noted to help boost respiratory health, strengthen the immune system, protect skin health, ease tension and anxiety, lower blood sugar, eliminate inflammation, and fight against bacterial infection.  Eucalyptus scent is a great stress reliever and also aids in diabetes management.

Lemongrass has so many benefits, such as: insomnia, respiratory problems, fever, infections, aches, nervous system, Type-2 diabetes,  body oder, obesity, Edema, skin care, cellular health, insect repellent, rheumatism, pet products, aches, and so much more. Lemongrass can cause an allergic reaction to some so caution is advised. 

Orange oil is great for anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, antispasmodic, antiseptic, aphrodisiac, carminative, diuretic, tonic, sedative and cholagogue substance purposes.  The citrus scent elevates moods and relaxes at the same time.   It also helps decrease inflammation whether it be inside or outside of the body.  It helps many systems get back on track, and it helps people avoid septic, fungal infections and tetanus.  It has also been rumored to help people with Alzheimer’s disease.

MyProSupports ELBOW BRACE







I have a terrible habit, when I am not typing and I am searching items I rest my elbow on the desk.  I learned the hard way that is a great way to pinch nerves and cause my carpal tunnel to settle in the elbow.   Not a good thing.  Not only does it pinch the nerves it causes pain and so I have to be careful where I rest my elbow.  Sad thing is I have a recliner that pinches the elbow nerves, too.  So I decided it was time to try this Elbow Brace from MyProSports.   Much to my surprise it really helps. 

The elbow brace gives my elbow some cushion and support throughout the day helping relief the nerves.  It fits comfortably and adjusts around the two arm bands that connect it.  The elbow part is thick and well cushioned and the whole piece is sewn very well.   

The compression isn't a tight one but it does use your body heat in the area to give a great therapeutic warmth for the elbow,  which is helpful to many injuries or strains our elbows take in our daily lives. 
If you get tennis elbow, or injuries in the area, including nerve pinches I highly recommend trying an elbow brace to help the healing or just for cushioned support when needed.
