Dot&Dot 15" and 18" Packing Sleeve Review


My Instagram - 15"
My Instagram - 18"
My Instagram
Small size dimensions 15" x 10", Medium size dimensions 18" x 12". These packing sleeves minimize wrinkles and keeps your clothes in place during travel. They maximize luggage space by compressing your clothes. Each packing sleeve includes a folding board which ha instruction on how to fold your shirts. 

I have never used a packing envelope or folder. The Dot&Dot 18" Packing Sleeve is amazing! It arrived quickly, thanks to Amazon PRIME. The quality of this product is amazing, great quality material and a sturdy construction. Product design is simple and it even comes with detailed instructions on how to use it.

I didn't have a specific use for this packing sleeve when I was asked to review it and ordered it but now I'm moving and this packing sleeve has been extremely helpful! I was able to pack 12 blouses in the Dot&Dot 18" Packing Sleeve and 6 pairs of slacks in the 15" sleeve! That's about half of my closet!

The best feature of this packing sleeve is the ability to adjust its size. You can adjust the size to fit exactly according to the amount of clothing that you have stored within the packing sleeve. So even if you remove one item from the packing sleeve you can adjust it to securely hold everything remaining.


My Instagram
These packing sleeves also come packaged in plastic zippered bags which can be reused as packing bags or to store the packing sleeve when not in use. Very useful too!

The folding board is printed with instruction on how to fold shirts but no directions on folding pants. I was able to figure out a way to fold them but those instructions would be nice. 

This sleeve was a great way for me to reduce the size of my closet during the move without worrying about wrinkles but it is also great for packing for vacations. I highly recommend this product for both uses! The Dot&Dot 18" Packing Sleeve allows you to cut down on the volume of your pack and stay presentable in appearance.

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.

My Review

My Instagram
I have thick, full hair already but I am always shedding. I wanted to try this product to help stop the shedding. My hair is everywhere and I leave strands of it all over the floors plus running my fingers through my hair in the shower trying to de-tangle it I lose strands. This is all very normal but I want it to be reduced a bit. Though I have thick, dry, long hair and it often gets weighted down on the top. I want full voluminous hair! I want hydrated hair! I have been using Argan oil in my hair for years and without it, I think my hair would be much dryer. I have used it on my skin before but felt it left my hands a bit greasy feeling. I can't wait to try all of these!
I love bottles with built in pumps and this one works well. It does not dispense too much which is nice because you really don't need a lot of the shampoo to do the job. I was surprised at how well it lathered because in my experience lathering shampoos strip my hair more.
  

Premium Organic Argan Oil Based Hair Loss Prevention Shampoo


The first thing I noticed with this product is the scent, it smells kind of like pine trees and Christmas. The smell isn't particularly strong or unappealing and mostly washes out with the rinse. But it is soothing and relaxing and made me feel so much better even just with washing my hair.

Premium Organic Argan Oil Based Conditioner


I also love the scent of this shampoo, a vanilla and herb scent and it goes well with the scent of the shampoo. I have been using it along with the shampoo and I have been very pleased. Not only with my results but also with the scent post shower. My hair feels smooth and clean after each shower and I'm not feeling any buildup.

The shampoo goes a long way but the conditioner doesn't quite match up. I always use more shampoo than conditioner than shampoo, I mean I go through two to four bottles of conditioner for each bottle of shampoo usually. Because of the price of these products, I don't see myself buying more of this product because of the price. With this conditioner I need to use much more than I would with other products I have used in the past t have the same result. If I use any less, my hair is unmanageable.

Pure and Organic Argan Oil


I have been trying to grow out my hair for a while now and it is now long, wavy/curly and dry. It can be hard to keep healthy and strong and it's hard to care for it. I have tried different brands of Argan oil in the past but some of them are just too expensive for how they work. Many of them got rid of flyaways but my hair felt greasy. I only shower every other day because shampoo dries out my hair more but I found myself shampooing more than usual. I love that Pura D'or is organic, with no fillers or additives! After using this product for a few days my hair feels healthier and hydrated without feeling greasy. My loose waves have continued to flourish and I just love it!

As a bonus, for the month of February Pura d'or has a special Valentines Day Coupon for 10% off your entire order, just enter Valentines2015 at checkout! PLUS you will receive a free 1oz bottle of Argan oil with any purchases. This is a limited time offer, only for Feburary so hurry and get yours today!

Weight Gurus Body Composition Scale Review


Weight Gurus - Amazon
Every Greater Goods product is backed by a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you purchase a product from them and for any reason the item does not meet your expectations, the company urges you to contact them. They will do what they can to resolve any issues.

Greater Goods strives to make the best-in-class products while giving back to great organizations. Greater goods for the greater good.
My Instagram


This scale is not only a Greater Goods product, it works toward the greater good. This scale provides accurate measurements, an easy-to-read display, an analysis of your health metrics, optional smartphone tracking, and optional weightless weighing. 

The scale also has the following features:
  • Auto Step-on
  • Auto Off
  • Auto calibration
  • Auto user detect, supports up to 8 users
  • Non-slip, scratch resistant feet
  • 4 ultra-precision weighing sensors
  • 400lb capacity

100% Satisfaction Guarantee. 5 Year Warranty. Fast, friendly, and helpful service from their local, US office via email or phone. What do you have to lose at this point? Just weight, right?!


My Review



I like that this scale has a large readout, larger than most even. I just wish that the indicators that show which of the other readings you are seeing (BMI, Muscle, Water, Bone) were larger as well.

The reading on this scale are consistent. And unlike other scales I have tried, if you step on the scale, and do so 5 minutes later, you should get the same result. I weighed myself twice in a row, a few minutes apart and got the same reading both times. Again, this scale is accurate.

Setup for this scale was pretty easy but the manual had some drawbacks. Listen to me, the technical writer who writes ho to documents lecturing on this sub-par manual. I just wish that it had a few more prompts or pictures to guide the user through getting started with the setup.

There are 5 different data points for "level of athletics" to make the BMI measurements conform. I have never had my BMI professionally calculated so I have no real basis for comparison.

My Instagram
I think one of the nicest features is the Weightless Technology. The scale lets you manage your weight by how much you’ve lost instead of how much you weigh. With Weightless, you decide how to view your weight: by the number or weightlessly by weight change. It’s a great feature for anyone who hates getting on the scale to view your typical weight.

There is a free application that lets you sync weight, body fat and muscle mass automatically with iOS and Android devices. With the free Weight Gurus App you can store weight entries, view trends, and chart progress. You can enter your current weight manually on the app or scan your weight directly from the scale onto your phone like using a bar code scanner. The app does not automatically sync your weight, you will need to take actions.

When comparing the Weight Gurus Body Composition Scale to other, similar scales in the same price range, the Weight Gurus scale does everything right, and the iOS and Android application just sweetens the deal.

Foxbrim Vitiman C Lotion Review


My Instagram
Expect more from your Daily Moisturizer. It Starts With Quality Skin Protection With Proven Vitamin C. Moisture and More. All The Benefits In A Single Bottle. Foxbrim Vitamin C Lotion. This vitamin C lotion allows you to create healthy hydrated skin that radiates.
  • Effectively lighten spots and discoloration
  • Reduce wrinkle formation and existing wrinkles
  • Refine and even skin texture
  • Promote skin cell turnover

Key Ingredients include Vitamin C (15%), Aloe Vera, MSM, Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, and Green Tea.

Formulated for all skin types, this natural lotion is soothing and non-irritating even for the most sensitive of skin types. Moisturize without worry, healthy hydration in a bottle.

My Review


I have used this product for a few days now and I'm not entirely impressed. I should clarify that I have fairly dry skin in some spots on my face so I use a moisturizer that helps to combat that already. This product doesn't help a lot with my fairly dry skin patches but it leaves my less dry patches moisturized well. 

I currently use Nivea face cream which I have my family import to the US from Germany. The formula is different than what you can buy in the US. It is a rich paste that I slather my face in daily and it keeps me moisturized evenly, even on those pesky dry spots.

Because I am so used to using something so thick and moisturizing, this product just didn't make the cut for me. It doesn't exactly have a pleasant scent nor is it repulsive, very neutral. Most of all though, it just doesn't moisturize the driest of spots on my face.


I would recommend this product for someone with neutral skin trying to gain the benefits of reducing wrinkles and refined, even skin texture. Or even to someone with oily skin who is trying to find a light weight moisturizer that won't make their skin more oily. Just not for someone with skin as dry as mine, even if just in patches.

11-in-1 Credit Card Multi-tool Review


My Instagram
This 11-in-1 Credit Card Multi-tool is so handy! It is small enough to fit in your wallet or pocket and can be used in so many different ways too!  

This 11-in-1 credit card multi-tool includes a:
  • Can opener
  • Knife
  • Screwdriver
  • Ruler
  • Bottle opener
  • 4 position wrench
  • Butterfly wrench
  • Saw blade
  • Direction ancillary indication
  • 2 position wrench
  • Lanyard or key-ring hole
My Instagram


These 11 Useful Tools are perfect for everyday use! The 11-in-1 credit card multi-tool is made of Solid 420 Stainless Steel – perfect for wallets, glove box, overnight bags and purses.  It easily Fits in Your Wallet – Only 2.68″ x 1.78″ x 0.079″, though it is thicker than a credit card.

The 2-inch serrated edge steel blade cuts through tough materials with ease such as seat belts or small trees.  This tool can be used in many situations! Plus this Amazon seller offers fast shipping unlike many of the others who sell this product shipping from China.

My Review


I love products that have multiple uses, and this 11-in-1 credit card milti-tool certainly has multiple uses! This tool has so many uses for being a small piece of steel the size of a credit card.

This too has so many different uses. I think the design of the tool is great but the location of the saw and knife could have used a bit more thought out. When you are trying to use one tool such as the screwdriver you are holding the sharp saw in your hand and there's a good chance of cutting yourself. This also hinders you from really getting a good torque on anything. As long as you're very careful, it shouldn't be a problem but you should be careful.  

The knife and saw are very sharp, so be sure to keep the 11-in-1 credit card multi-tool housed inside the protective sleeve to avoid an accident.

Whether used on the face or the body, this Dead Sea Mud Mask is a superb in-home spa treatment that will reveal more vibrant, refined, healthier skin.


My Review


I love that there's no mixing for this mask and no special prep to use this mask either. This dead sea mud mask is ready to use straight from the jar. This 16oz jar is going to last me a while! I love the tight feeling on my face when I use a mud mask and this one did not disappoint. Plus, the tightening and color change are a great indicator to let you know when the mask is ready to be removed. This 

My face was just glowing after I used this Dead Sea Mud Mask from InstaNatural! Not only did it look great, it felt just as amazing! Since receiving this Dead Sea Mud Mask, I have been using it about once a week, especially when I have breakouts or dry flaking skin. It works and it works great! I also love the fact that I can recognize, understand and pronounce every single ingredient included in this Dead Sea Mud Mask.

My Instagram
The jar is large so you get plenty of product and you do not need to use much (if you use a lot, it takes a long time to dry.) It is dead sea mud the cold grey look is conducive to 'mud' and it feels kind of slimy. It does not smell bad which is great as I'm sensitive to scent. The mask takes about 10 minutes to dry and it is easy to wash off.

Be sure to wash it off with warm water and rub your fingers in a circular motion. Use a good moisturizer after this mask because it does tend to dry your skin out but it does wonders to take off the flakes. Your skin will look very nice afterwards, shrunken pores and all.

Slow Cooker Recipes for Beginners Cookbook Review + Giveaway


Slow Cooker Recipes for Beginners is a great cookbook for people who like creative and modern food, similar to what would be served in a good restaurant. The recipes are easy to follow and simple. Whether you are new to using a slow cooker or and advanced cooker, the recipes in this cookbook are great!

The slow cooker is an amazingly versatile appliance that allows for easy creativity in any kitchen. In addition to classics such as spicy beef stew and chicken piccata you’ll learn how to use the freshest spices and ingredients to make dishes you never thought possible in a slow cooker.

The Slow Cooker Recipes for Beginners cookbook was designed for busy people who don’t want to sacrifice great-tasting, nutritious meals for time. The Slow Cooker Recipes for Beginners cookbook is an easy step-by-step guide to enjoying delicious, healthy meals without all the hassle.

  • The slow cooker is perfect for international dishes such as Mexican Meatballs and Greek Mushrooms.
  • Want to reduce the amount of meat you eat? The Slow Cooker Recipes for Beginners book contains a wealth of vegetarian recipes such as Ratatouille or Veggie Chili created especially for those not wanting to include meat.
  • Let the slow cooker take care of dessert. Chocolate Mousse and Cheesecake are just two of the amazing desserts included.
I received a digital copy of the Slow Cooker Recipes for Beginners cookbook and I will be giving away six copies now too! I have always liked using a slow cooker because it is so easy. Putting all the ingredients in the cooker and letting it do it's own thing is amazing!

I love that I can put together a meal the day before and let it cook over night or during the day, on low, while I am at work. In terms of tenderizing the meat, using a slow cooker gets them very juicy and makes them far easier to digest.

This book has some great recipes. I like curries but I have never made one on my own this cookbook has many recipes for curries that were simple to follow. This book has a great selection and the recipes are easy to follow. I found so many amazing recipes in this cookbook, ones I never thought of cooking in the past. Dessert in a slow cooker, who even thought of that?! This cookbook is easy to follow and has tasty recipes.

My Instagram
The cover of this cookbook looks really great and I thought that there would be more pictures of the cooked recipes in the book. There's not. A cookbook that lacks images is not helpful if you ask me. I tried out a few of the recipes and they were pretty good but very bland. But as a weight loss cookbook I kind of expected that.

Checkout this cookbook on Amazon by using one of the links to the right or enter my Instagram giveaway! You can find me on Instagram HERE. Plus, the Kindle version of the book will be free for download from Amazon between Feb. 15 - Feb. 17.

Inside Smarts Laundry Bags - Amazon

Delicates Laundry Bag Perfection.

If you've tried any ordinary laundry wash bags, you'll notice the InsideSmarts difference in no time. These #1 Rated Wash Bags are made of premium-grade mesh that makes them as strong & durable as they are luxurious & smooth.

Everything in its Place.

This popular lingerie wash bag set ships to you with 4 Luxury Wash Bags (2 medium, 2 large). Keep like-colors separated using the 3 white wash bags for light-colored loads, and the 1 large black bag for dark-colored items.

Inside Smarts Laundry Bags - Amazon

Every Wash: Quiet & Safe. 

Zippered mesh laundry bags can be noisy, but not this new, 2015 Delicates Wash Bag design. Slip the rustproof zipper under the smart zipper guard to protect & ensure a quiet, snag-free wash.

There are 4 mesh laundry bags included, each featuring a durable zip top enclosure, and an assortment of sizes based on your washing needs. There is an elastic zipper guard to tuck away the zipper so no worries of the zipper getting stuck on anything in the wash and no noisy clanking in the dryer! One of the two larger bags is black for washing your darker colored items .

Another cool thing about these bags is that you can register them after purchasing to secure their 365-day Smart Wash Guarantee against any manufacturing defects. If you don't know what you can wash in the bags they also have videos to show you the best use for your laundry bags! I personally recommend these, awesome product!

My Review


These. Laundry. Bags. Are. Amazing! I'm pretty sure that's my review in it's entirety. Kidding, but it's nearly true!

I just cannot find a single thing about this that I don't LOVE. I have always used a laundry bag for washing my bras and it helps to keep the straps from being stretched out but other laundry bags usually have larger mesh with holes where the hooks get stuck and can get tangled. They are also very nice for keeping my knee high stockings and pantyhose together and the washer doesn't suck them up. Using a laundry bag for delicates and small items allows bras to keep their shape and small items like socks and stockings won't get lost.

These laundry bags have a tight mesh which allows water and soap to flow through but it will not allow the hooks or small items to exit the bag or get tangled!

Magnetic Phone Mount Review

This top rated magnetic phone mount has a futuristic design and will work with many different types of smartphones, eliminating the need to use bulky clamps as with standard phone mounts.

This phone mount offers extreme suction. It really sticks! Industry-leading suction gel will stick on almost any flat surface. If gel loses stickiness, simply rinse under water and air dry to restore the suction. You can attach it to your windshield, dashboard, office desk, kitchen counter or even your golf cart!

The stand offers versatile maneuverability. The contact surface with the phone can rotate 360° and swivel from side to side, allowing you to find the perfect viewing angle. The magnetic top is reversible so you can brace a larger device against the base for additional stability. No other type of phone cradle can boast this!

When you buy this magnetic phone mount from Infernal Innovations you receive a bonus gift too! While the magnet mount sticks almost anywhere, no suction cup sticks to 100% of dash boards with textured surfaces. As a free bonus, Infernal Innovations has included an adhesive disk (a $5.99 value) just in case you need it. Infernal Innovations stands by their product and offer a risk-free 5-year warranty. Yes! FIVE years!

This magnetic phone mount protects your phone too. The rubberized contact surface works with the magnets so that your phone is protected from scratches and so that it won't slide off! The four strong magnets provide the piece of mind that your phone will be held gently but firmly. Exactly where you need it to stay. There are multiple ways of inserting the metal plate which guarantees that you will be able to use your phone with this product! Simply hold your device near the magnetic head and it will attach firmly to the phone mount.


My Review


My Instagram
I personally do not use my phone as a GPS. I have a Garmin GPS to get me places and I bought it before I had a smart phone with these capabilities. I do however, have a lot of friends who use their smart phones as a GPS helping them navigate which I could see all kinds of uses for this mount for! I think I may be thinking too small though! Yes, this device will allow you to set up your phone to be used as a GPS but it can be used for so much more! Especially with many states enforcing hands free laws, this magnetic phone mount will aid in keeping drivers using their devices hands on the wheel.

This magnetic phone mount is very easy to assemble and was ready in a matter of seconds on my windshield. The magnetic component of this device is fantastic! It is easy to put in place and easy to remove from the mount but it did not slip or move position one bit when I didn't want it to. This mount allows me to give my full attention to the road and not worry about who texted or called me.

I don't like to text and drive, big shock for someone in my age bracket, but it makes me feel unsafe and it's illegal too so, why not avoid it! This device allows me to see my incoming texts and if necessary I can follow up with a phone call. All hands free thanks to the "OK, Google...." feature on my phone and the voice commands in my Dodge Journey.

My Instagram
To apply this magnetic phone mount to your windshield or dashboard (without the adhesive disc):
  1. Pull lever up
  2. Place the magnetic phone mount where you would like it to be
  3. Push the lever back down

That's it, done! The mount is attached to your dashboard or windshield. I wasn't able to use it on a slanted curved surface, but it works on a flat or slanted surface. To attach your phone to the mount:
  1. Remove phone case
  2. Place magnet on back of phone
  3. Replace phone case
  4. Place phone on magnetic phone mount
The magnet is very thin so there is no bulge under the case. I have a case that has a silicone case then a hard plastic case too and I don't notice a difference in the case. I have not experienced any difference in functionality in my Nexus 5 or even WiFi with this magnet in place. There is no effect on functionality.

I love that I don't have to attach the magnetic phone mount permanently to my vehicle or the magnet to my phone! Because it's not permanent, I can move it from car to car or phone to phone which is a major plus for me! I found this magnetic phone mount much easier to use than other bracket-like phone holders that need constant adjustment before each use.

As long as you're not making rash movements or roll the vehicle or something, this magnetic phone mount will keep your phone in place on the dash. I found that shaking the holder released the hold of the magnet however this case will hopefully not be seen in any use case.

Chamberlain's Leather Milk Leather Conditioner Review

My Instagram
Just like milk is a primary nutrient for life, Leather Milk is a vital nutrient for your leather! Leather Care Liniment is also made in the USA!

This leather milk was originally designed for and recommended by Saddleback Leather Company, it is a milky, water-based leather conditioner containing some remarkable leather enriching ingredients along with a few mystical properties.

The all-natural recipes are designed to gently strengthen, preserve, beautify and restore your leather, without overloading it with heavy oils, toxic chemicals, or harsh scents. Distinguished by its pleasant almond fragrance, Leather Care Liniment no. 1 is perfect for use on:
  • Leather bags, luggage, purses, shoes, boots, saddle/tack, leather apparel

Leather care tips

  • Read instructions fully before using.
  • Leather Milk should not be consumed. 
  • Use carefully on unfinished leather. 
  • Not for use on suede. 
  • Test in a discreet area before using. 
  • Clean first with Straight Cleaner no. 2 or other leather cleaner if leather is excessively dirty.
  • May darken lighter colored leathers; color usually lightens back up with use. 
  • Apply shoe polish after conditioning dress shoes.

My Review


My Instagram
I have used this product only once so far but I am officially a huge fan of Chamberlain's Leather Milk. The product gently nourishes, strengthens, restores and preserves your leather. Leather Milk is leather enriching and also works as a gentle cleaner.

I used this product on my favorite pair of leather shoes. I bought them while I was living in Germany in 2012 and to be honest I probably haven't been taking the best care of them. I know I should do more but I didn't know about this amazing product until just now!

After one application of Chamberlain's Leather Milk I saw a huge difference and once I let it dry, I felt a huge difference too. My shoes were so soft! The leather milk will most likely make your leather look darker when first applied but after it dries, there shouldn't be a difference.

My favorite part of this product (other than how well it works) is that it smells so good. I have used a lot of leather cleaning and polishing products in the past that worked to nourish the leather but smelled so badly and made the whole house smell too. I love that this stuff doesn't stink, it only has a light almond scent to it. And that scent is great!

This product is great to clean up the normal wear and tear on your leather shoes, purses, furnature and more. I'm impressed with how easy it was to use too! I'm buying more for me and my parents too! They have two leather chairs with ottomans and a leather loveseat that get beat on by my brothers kids. They see all kinds of wear with all my brothers little rascals coming over all the time!

    My Reviews



    Truly Radiant™ Whitening & Strengthening Fluoride Rinse

    This mouthwash tastes great and leaves you mouth feeling fresh and clean. This mouth wash does not have alcohol or peroxide in it which is great too! It is important that you read the directions on the back of the bottle because you are supposed to not eat or drink for thirty minutes after you use it. That's fine for me though since I use mouthwash at night and not in the morning. Best parts of this mouth wash is that it has a great flavor and it doesn't burn your mouth!

    Spinbrush™ Truly Radiant™ Deep Clean Manual Toothbrush

    The rotating part of the brush is a pretty interesting feature. I've never seen a feature like this on a manual brush but isn't that engineering cool? I love that it doesn't require batteries or to be charged. I have noticed that the spinning portion of the tooth brush moves much better when you brush in small circles rather than back-and-forth. Personally, I am a back-and-forth brusher though so that's not a good thing for me. I haven't been seeing much turning from this brush. Love that this brush does come in multiple bristle firmness'.

    Arm & Hammer™ Truly Radiant™ Rejuvenating Toothpaste

    This toothpaste is amazing! As a long time coffee drinker and smoker my teeth are not as white as I want them to be. I quit smoking 1+ years ago but I haven't found a single product that has helped me get them the color I want, white. The Arm & Hammer line has been the first to show me real results and I have been using their other products since. When I was given the opportunity to try this new rejuvenating line, I was so excited. This toothpaste is better than any whitening product I have ever used and the results speak for themselves. I could already tell a difference in the color of my teeth after a single use. I highly recommend this product!

    My Review

    If you are thinking about getting Voodoo Tattoos, GET them! If your not thinking about getting them, GET them! These are fun, edgy and super easy to apply plus they last for days. Voodoo Tattoos are affordable and look great when going out on the town, on a first date, or even just going to the beach. I am SO in love with these tattoos, they're super fun to wear.

    These tattoos also make great gifts and I know Christmas is over but they make great stocking stuffers. You could easily include them in a birthday or valentine card too! Young girls, teens, twenty somethings, even my mother loves these!

    My six-year-old niece may have liked them better than I did. She wanted all of my tattoos all at once! These designs are quite variable and you can wear them as jewelery too! Get them to match any outfit! The designs I received included feathers, hearts, a cross bracelet, triangles and more! But you can pick out the ones you want, buy the whole line or buy them by the sheet, there's so many choices!
