Turmeric Curcumin Capsules - Healthnex Supplements - Review


As I said in my review of another Turmeric Curcumin product:
Turmeric Curcumin Capsules - Premium Grade - Amazon
Many people cook with Turmeric Curcumin, but I wouldn't know where to buy it! These capsules smell like sweet potatoes so I would probably like the flavor but because it appears to be a root, it may be hard to incorporate into a meal - and to prepare.

This product allows you to get all of the benefits of Turmeric Curcumin without having to incorporate it into a meal and slave over the preparation. These capsules are easy to swallow and don't actually have a flavor to them.
My Instagram
This product also claims that Turmeric Curcumin is an antioxidant and detoxifier that naturally removes dangerous toxins from your body and protects you against cellular damage from free radical molecules for healthier skin, organs, muscles, and bones!

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of Turmeric, more popularly known as one of the most the most common spices used in Indian cooking. Curcumin has been employed for hundreds of years in The Indian subcontinent being a key element in Ayurvedic medicine process. With additional tests, case studies and experiments being performed over the last 50 years or so it has been uncovered that Curcumin is the substance in Turmeric that delivered all the wonderful health benefits associated with Turmeric.

My Thoughts

I have had consistent knee pain for a few years now because of my ACL replacement surgery in 2010. I have tried all kinds of products to get rid of the pain. I have seen specialists done months and months of physical therapy, nothing seemed to help. Even just walking for a few hours incapacitated me for the rest of the day, I was almost always swollen!

These capsules don't have any different effect for me than others that I have tried. Nothing truly makes them stand out. If I was basing my choice on price alone (current prices shown), I would choose this one.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Softy Sanitizing Wipes for Hand and Surface Review

My Instagram
Softy is an American company that sells alcohol-free sanitizing wipes that can be used to clean hands, body, and surfaces. They are the largest and softest sanitizer wipes on the market.

The package I received came with this additional information on the product:
  • 150 ct. extra large 7" x 8" wipes - Use fewer wipes to get the job done.
  • Alcohol free anti-bacterial formula kills 99.9% of germs in less than 5 seconds.
  • Use on hands, body, and surfaces.
  • Thick quilted fabric for a plush, pillowy feel. 
  • Each sheet is strong enough to hold a 12-kg kettlebell.
  • Citrus Fresh Scent. 
  • Softy - Amazon
  • Made in the USA.
My Instagram
If you are looking for large sanitizing wipes that refuse to shred under pressure these Softy wipes are what you MUST buy! The size is one of the biggest selling points for me, I hate using sanitizing wipes from other manufacturers and needing to use 5 or 6 to get the job done. These wipes are durable and large and allow me to complete the job with just ONE sheet!

My Instagram
Especially in this season with colds and the flu going around these are a must! I will definitely be buying a second container for in the office. And why not? I can order through Amazon and use promotional code: 7J95L6AU to receive 50% off! And so can you!

Scott Naturals® Toss The Tube Sampling - Crowdtap


My Instagram
I received a four pack of Scott Naturals® Tube-Free toilet paper this week from Crowdtap to review. I can't wait to share this greener solution with my followers!

What Was In The Package?

  • 1 4-roll package of Scott Naturals® Tube-Free toilet paper
  • 1 sampling insert

Why Is This Important?

Reducing our footprint is important to me, so why not start with something small: toilet paper tubes! What do you do with your toilet paper tubes currently? Most people just throw them away and think nothing of it but there's much more that you can do! Doing a quick internet search pulls up all kinds of ideas of how to reuse them such as recycling, composting, or more creative uses such as cord organizers. 

My Instagram
But why use them at all? Why even have them in the house. Keeping them out of a landfill is great but that's just one half of the problem. The other half involves the manufacturing process. As with any product, tubes require resources and energy. If a company doesn't make their own tubes, then packaging and transportation are also added to the environmental cost. And, of course, not everyone finds a use for them ... billions end up in landfills each year.

Scott Naturals® Tube-Free toilet paper is coming to the rescue to reduce your paper usage and assist in keeping these paper products out
of landfills! Toilet paper and a cardboard tube has been around for centuries but what if they didn't have to go hand-in-hand?

I learned that Scott Naturals® Tube-Free toilet paper is the only major brand that is Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified. The FSC has confirmed that this product has been sourced in an environmentally-friendly, socially responsible and economically viable manner. The company tried adding recycled content to the product but found that the quality and softness was compromised. They are currently researching alternative fibers for potential use in the future.

How Does Scott Naturals® Tube-Free TP Stack-up Against The Competition?

My Instagram
Each roll contains four hundred unscented one-ply sheets. Typically, one-ply sheets are thin and flimsy but these ones are thick and sturdy. My toilet-paper holder has a compressible roll holder that is quite large in diameter but it still slips easily through the roll's opening. The best part about this paper is that at the end of the roll, the final sheet slips easily off the holder.

The paper is appropriate for use in septic tanks or direct sewer line connections. There's nothing to dislike about this toilet paper and everything to love about reducing your family's waste!

Newly Designed Cassani Fogless Shower Mirror Review



What I thought of the Cassani Fogless Shower Mirror

I live in an apartment which I rent so I wasn't comfortable hanging the mirror on the shower wall with such a permanent hook. I went to Walmart and bought a few command hooks instead so they're easy to remove when necessary.

I love using this mirror and having it in the shower, the fact that it doesn't fog is amazing! I don't shave my face in the shower but this mirror has made shaving my armpits easier. Washing my face is easy with this mirror since I can ensure that I am washing everything and that I have washed off all the soap.

My boyfriend has begun shaving in the shower when he visits because of this mirror and he enjoys the close shave he is getting. He has had problems in the past with razor burn but by shaving in the shower he doesn't have to worry about that anymore!

While I have only had it hanging in the shower for a few days, I have found that the mirror does not fog and it hasn't caused issues. It hasn’t fallen off the wall or anything like that. This would be good for basically any shower, any bathroom though I do suggest using the command hooks if you are in an apartment and worried about removing the more permanent hooks from the wall.

The razor wall mount is the perfect size for any razor. In the rare event that the fog free shower mirror does fog up or gets something on it, I just take it off the wall mount, run it under the water, and voila, it’s perfect again!

Why Should You Shave In The Shower?

  • It is warm and clean
  • No more messy sink
  • Razor burn be gone - The steam from a nice hot shower softens hair and skin, while also opening up the pores for a closer shave, and get rid of razor burn.
  • Continuous hydration
 

How To Use The Cassani Fogless Shower Mirror

  • WARNING: Do *NOT *use cleaning products, towels or cloths on this mirror.
The Anti-Fog Nanotechnology is infused into the mirror's reflection surface. Using cleaning products here will very likely remove the anti-fog "magic". Also, using a cloth or towel will result in light scratches or tiny fibers appearing on the mirror.
  • It is recommended that you rinse your fogless mirror with clean, warm, running water, and gently rubbing it with your (clean) finger/s. 
You will want to remove the protective clear coating from the front side of your new shower mirror and brown coating from the back of it, to see a squeaky clean white backing that looks significantly nicer. The brown coating will be a little harder to get off but it's okay to give it a good pull.

Clean the area in your shower where you will put your mirror and razor hooks with rubbing alcohol and make sure the surface is very dry before putting the adhesives in place.

Place pressure on the hook(s) for 30-45 seconds and then allow the hooks a few hours to set before hanging anything on them.
 

Included With The Cassani Fogless Shower Mirror

  1. 1 Shatter-Proof Fogless Shower Mirror 
  2. 1 Stainless Steel Mirror Wall Mount
  3. 1 Stainless Steel Shaving Razor Wall Mount
