Review - The Terry Treetop Collection



The Terry Treetop collections book series is wonderful for my daughters. I really like that you can get it in a digital edition, which is what I have. Both of my daughter's love to read books and they both love their tablets. So what better way for them to read books then on their tablet whenever they want!
While these books are geared more towards bedtime they like to read them anytime of the day. My youngest loves the Terry Treetop and the lost egg story. 



Another wonderful part is the Abigail series as well. I actually wasn't expecting to get the Abigail series and it was a nice little surprise to have that as well. Right now with it being the holidays the most favorite part of the Abigail series is Abigail in the North Pole Adventure. 


Tali Carmi has done some wonderful work in this book series. Each book flows easy, you know what the story is about, and it keeps my daughter's attention. The illustrations for the books is beyond amazing. Each picture goes along with what is on that page. This is a really great book series, perfect for bedtime, perfect for little ones starting to learn to read. It lets them live multiple lives within the series. I am a strong believer that book readers live more than one life, and it is clear that that happens with my children in this series. Since these are a digital edition I did a screen grab from my computer and edited to show the images above.

Overall really great books, easy to follow, and great illustration. I give this series a 10/10. If you have never heard of this series I highly recommend you find it and get it for your children.

Review - Maywood Creek Stretch mars & Scar Cream

Review - Maywood Creek Stretch Marks & Scar Cream


I have been using this cream for a little bit now and it's been working really well on my new stretch marks and really reduced the way they looked. My older ones are taking a little bit longer, but that is to be expected as they have had time to heal.

I really like how it smells. I personally can't really smell the vanilla, but I can smell the coconut. Another great thing I like is that is absorbs really fast and it doesn't leave a sticky or greasy residue. That is a major plus for me because I have used similar products that left me feeling greasy/sticky and that is not something that I want to experience again. I like that it's a thick cream and really thin or runny.


 It is Paraben, Phthalate, and formaldehyde free, and pregnancy safe. The product label says you can uses it for eczema and psoriasis, as well as on dry rough skin.

I used it on my right ankle. I sit a certain way that rubs my ankle and leaves it really dry and red. So I started putting this on it and it had made some good improvement.


Overall I really like this product and would give it an 8/10. To see my video review -

Review - The Healing Tree Vegan Natural Lip Balm

The Healing Tree Vegan Natural Lip Balm



I have been using The Healing Tree vegan natural lip balm for the past week and a half. This is the time of year that my lips get really dry, have a lot of dead skin, and even crack. It's not good to look at and it is even worse feeling for me. In the first photo you'll see how dry my lips are and if you look closely you'll see little red patches as well. After a week of using the healing tree lip balm my lips are nice and smooth and I don't have cracking anymore. 



I do use my Jamberry sugar scrub for my lips to get rid of the dead skin. I recommend that you use some form of a scrub to remove dead skin and then the lip balm helps to keep them protected from the dry winter air and moisturizes them. 

I really like that this lip balm is non-toxic and is vegan. Being able to read the ingredients and knowing exactly what they are is amazing. This lip balm contains carnauba wax, cocoa butter, shea butter, virgin coconut oil, vitamin E, castor oil, rice bran oil, sunflower oil, and olive oil. Simple ingredients that are all good for you and you know exactly what they are. 




It is a long lasting lip balm I only have to apply it maybe twice a day. I also like that there's no parabens in it. Now the sample that I have is unscented but you can get scented bombs. I'm personally going to be purchasing the mint pack because I love meant anything. Overall it is a really great lip balm and I give this a 9/10.

Review - Sminiker Professional 2pcs Countdown Timer



I really enjoyed using these timers. They are easy to set up and to get going. I didn't know at first that the batteries did have a plastic wrapping around them, so you'll need to remove that when you go to use it. They are really well made and both run great. I love that they are small and can fit any where. If you don't want them hanging on your fridge all the time you can put them in a drawer.
The magnet on the back is super strong, and it will stay attached to whatever you stick it to. I really like that you can use the kickstand to settle down on the counter or next to you wherever you are. The alarms are loud enough to hear from across my house and they don't turn off until you turn them off. Listen to the video below to hear how loud. I used them while cooking dinner and it was so nice having the ability to set timers for everything I was cooking.
 I do like that you have the on and off switch so that you can save your battery. I can't wait for Thanksgiving because these are going to come in handy. We cook a lot of things at once and they all have different lengths they need to cook for. I could easily stick a sticky note to each one to remind myself what the alarm is for. Instructions for how to use them are basically right on the front and they are super easy to follow. Overall I really like using these timers and I give them a 9/10.

Review - KevenAnna 10 Pcs Lightweight Camping Cookware Set


 Review - KevenAnna 10 Pcs Lightweight Camping Cookware Set
  

 I have used different cooking sets for camping in the past, and I have to say that they KevenAnna 10 piece set is above the others. One of my favorite aspects about the set is that it can only be condense down into a little 7 inch by 5 inch space. 

I do like that the frying pan are made of an aluminum material, are earth friendly and non-toxic. It is slightly non-stick, so you do have to use something inside of the pot or the frying pan to keep your food from sticking. Everything was easy to clean that I used, but if you don't use enough oil or butter to keep the food from sticking you will have to scrub really hard. Check out this video of me cooking an egg in the frying pan.

The little camping stove burner will only fit certain gas tanks, so you might want to take it with you when you go to purchase one for it. 



The mesh bag makes containing all of the pieces easy, and you can just attach it to the side of your backpack or cooler. The set would only feasibly be able to feed one to two people, so if you have more than that you would have to have more than one set, or cook more than one time.



 In an emergency this would be a great little cooking set said to have. I do see my family using this multiple times during the camping season, and I can't wait to use the pot for some soup or stew. Over all I give this camping set an 8/10.

Review - BambooWorx 3 Piece Tong Set


I was recently given the privilege to try the Bamboo Worx three-piece Tong set. 



I actually use them to help me make some BLTs for lunch the other day. Overall the set is really well-made, it has no harmful varnish or lacquer, you do have to hand wash them and air dry, never clean them in the dishwasher.


  One of the great things that I like about this set of tong's is that they are made of bamboo. Right on the back of the box it will clearly tell you that an entire bamboo forest can be regenerated in three to five years, and they are also 100% biodegradable. Those right there are two of the main things anybody shopping for new tongues should be looking for. Help lower your carbon footprint, and use a really great product at the same time. 

The toaster tong comes with a little magnet that will allow it to stick to the side of your toaster, so it makes keeping up with it really easy. 


My two favorite ones out of the three piece set is the toast and salad tongs. They were easy to use, and did their job well. Now the frying and serving tong is a little harder to squeeze together at first, so you do have to work with it to get it easier to squeeze. 


Another thing that I liked about the tongue set is each individual tongue has a little image on them that shows you what to use them for. I will give this tong set a 8/10 and recommend it for anyone looking for a new set of tongs. #bambooworx

Suave Professionals Honey Infused review!

First let me just put this photo right here


You can clearly see the difference between my hair before and after. My hair before I tried Suave professional honey infused hair care system was dry, dull, and broke easily. After using the shampoo and conditioner, as well as the 10in1 leave in conditioner my hair has improved a lot. 

My color is more vibrant, my hair is softer, and it doesn't break as much anymore. Having curly hair it's really important for me to find a product that will maintain my natural hair qualities. I live in the south and my hair gets dried out and damaged a lot due to the weather. Suave professional honey infused has helped combat that problem and make my hair healthier. 

One of the best things about it outside of the improvement of my hair is the way it smells. If you happen to be down the hair care aisle on your next shopping trip just pop open the top and give it a sniff. It is just a rich creamy honey goodness smell.

This is a hair care system that I will be continuing to use on my hair, and I'm even excited to give some of the other Suave Professional lines and try. Love is not enough to express how much I love this line of products. 

(sometime I like to give my hair some extra curl and Suave has helped with the damage that comes with a curling iron)
