Here are my thoughts:

I have really been enjoying this brush set. I have gotten more and more into doing cool and different eye makeup so it has been really nice to have all the brush heads needed to do the various techniques. The brushes seem to be really nice. They are soft and shaped well and I have not had a lot of loose bristles. I also really like the case they go in, it is really cute and a great way to keep them organized. It had a super strong chemical/plastic smell when I first got it. But after airing it out for awhile the scent has mostly dissipated.

Rechargeable Light Up Dog Collar by Shine for Dogs


Here is what Amazon says about the product details:
  • RECHARGEABLE via USB - cable included. Never buy batteries again!
  • NEW DESIGN: ULTRA bright using 4 x high output LED instead of 2
  • Hours of walk time - up to 10 hours of light per charge, simply recharge for just 30 min
  • DURABLE + WEATHER RESISTANT - Uses Fiber Optics not WIRE LED, insulated system withstands weather.
  • 3 Modes: Continuous ON, Rapid Flashing, Stead Flashing

Here are my thoughts:

This is such a cool idea! And it is just what we needed for our Rottweiler. Her coat is almost entirely solid black, which makes it pretty much impossible to see her in the dark. Now we use the light up collar when we take her anywhere at night. Even if she just goes into the back yard, we at least know where she is with the collar on. Plus it is really cute! The lights are nice and bright with a solid setting, a fast flash setting, and a slow flash setting. It also came with a charge cord so I don't have to worry about batteries.

O-Sip! Silicone Sippy Lids by ModFamily


Here is what Amazon says about the product details:
  • MADE FOR MOTHERS BY MOTHERS: designed by moms using 100% food grade silicone approved by the FDA
  • ENJOY THE CONVENIENCE: when you always have one of these lids in your bag, you can convert any cup to a spill-proof sippy cup
  • LIFE CHANGER: the product you never knew you needed and now can't live without.
  • AVOID EMBARRASSMENT: no more spilled glasses of milk or embarrassing scenes at the restaurant
  • FRUSTRATION FREE: easy to clean with no extra valves or parts that always seem to be missing

Here are my thoughts:

These really are kind of a genius invention. It is pretty incredible how vast of a range they have in regard to the different sizes and shapes of cups they will fit over. And not just fit over, but seal snugly on to. They also don't leak! That is a huge benefit especially when dealing with toddlers. I got them because my one year old is having trouble adapting to the sippy cups we bought her. She does not understand what to do with the hard mouth spouts they have as she has only used bottles previously. I thought these might be a good go between as they are shaped like the sippy spouts, but are soft like the bottle nipples. And so far it is working great. I also like keeping one of these in the diaper bag because I know I am covered no matter where I go. If I get caught without a bottle at a restaurant or a friends house I can just get out the silicone sippy lid and feel confident that it will fit over whatever cup they have available.

A DIY (do it yourself) haircuts that suitable for children, women and man. A great gift of beauty products for any occasion. Free shipping for prime member.

Here are my thoughts:

I'm fairly annoyed with this product. For starters it took two and half weeks to get to me. But then when I finally did get it, I was less than impressed. Everything in the kit was just stuffed loosely into the box. Which to me makes it seem like it's a return or a fake or something. And then the quality of the scissors is pretty poor. My best friend is a hair stylist and I know what proper hair cutting scissors should be like and these are not up to standard. Both pairs are really stiff to open and close. And on closer inspection of the straight blades I could see that the blades were bent and there was a gap between them! To top it all off, this set comes with absolutely zero instructions (another reason it feels like a return or a fake). Apparently I am just supposed to know how to use everything intuitively. I was really excited about this, but now I am just bummed out. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one is because I am still hopeful that I will be able to figure out and use the cutting guides.

  • Completely redesigned with peep hole, hanging toy & safety features. Playhouse & shelter in one!

  • Great gift for all cat lovers. Buy now with our 100% purrfect satisfaction and money back guarantee

Here are my thoughts:

 My cat seriously loves this tunnel. I only had it out for a few minutes before she was over to investigate. And then it took all of 15 seconds for her to crawl in. She loves to lounge inside of it when she is lazy. But she also has a bunch of fun when she is hyper running through it and attacking my fingers when I scratch the outside. What I like is the simplicity of the instant pop set up as well as the fact that I can collapse it down and tuck it away when needed. Although collapsing it back down is easier said than done. It took me a few tries to successfully get it tied together without it springing back out.

6.5 Feet Beach Umbrella with Sand Anchor by BeachBuddy.co


Here is what Amazon says about the product details:
  • Opens to 6.5Ft with 2 piece white powder coated poles
  • Features anchor system
  • Tilt Feature, vented canopy with high quality 8 steel rib system
  • Polyester with silver lining, UPF 50
  • Includes carrying bag with shoulder strap

Here are my thoughts:

This umbrella is so nice and big, it is perfect for a sunny day at the beach. I love that is pretty light weight and that it breaks down and fits into a convenient little carry bag. It is also easy to assemble and put up. And it has fold down handles on the trunk to make it easier to twist it into the ground, which is a really nice feature. The colors are very bold and bright and look great for the beach. The end has a spiral screw like shape to get it into the sand and anchor it. However don't make the mistake I did, that screw end is made of not super durable plastic which is fine for the sand but not anything more substantial like dirt. I tried to put it into the backyard and the plastic immediately snapped and broke.

Here are my thoughts:

This game is fun to play. I like that you can play with a group or with just 2 people. It comes in a nice small compact box which is ideal for us because we have so many games and space saving is a must. The game instructions are kind of a lot and we found them a little complicated and hard to take in at first. But once we started playing it was easy to pick up.

Here are my thoughts:

This plate is seriously heavy duty. It is solid and sturdy. My kid will definitely not be breaking this plate, that much is for sure. This is also a fun design and I like that it offers so many different compartments too. My son is a picky eater and does not like his different foods to touch, so more sections are better. And the compartments are a pretty good depth. I do think the plate is a little plain and utilitarian though. The packaging really makes it feel more fun and youthful, but without the print it totally loses that.

Here are my thoughts:

I have recently become kind of obsessed with bath bombs. There is nothing more relaxing than soaking in a warm tub of water that has been been saturated with a bath bomb. I have had lots of different kinds of bath bombs and some are much better quality than others. These are not the best I have used, but they are still pretty good. They smell really good, but they all smell kind of the same. I think one of them has an ingredient that infiltrated the rest when they got put in the box. Also all of them have different names, but none of them say what the actual scent is. As for the Konjac sponge, I have never had one before, but I was pleasantly surprised with it.

  • ELITE CUSTOMER SERVICE and PRIME 2 DAY SHIPPING - We truly care about every single one of our customers. Not only are our bibs the coolest on the internet, but we go above & beyond with our customer care!

Here are my thoughts:

We super love bandana bibs, they are such a cute accessory as well as being really useful.  And that is so key when it comes to baby boys because there are not really a lot of accessorizing options for boys. The backing on these is the typical polyester that acts as a moisture barrier to keep your baby dry. It is very soft at first, but after a few times washing them, they are not really soft anymore, but not rough either. These also have the double snap closure in the back which I prefer. And I like that they are gender neutral. My favorite is the fox pattern, super adorable and unique.

Moscow Mule 100% Solid Copper Mug by Gear Ultimate


Here is what Amazon says about the product details:
  • AMAZINGLY COLD, SUPER REFRESHING: This mug gets really cold and frosts up in seconds. Leave it in the freezer for a frosted mug effect and keep your drink colder for much longer. It makes your Moscow mule, or any drink for that matter, super refreshing. There's nothing more refreshing on a hot day, or any day.
  • SUPERIOR VALUE: Bundle includes the Gear Ultimate Pure Copper Mug, the Gear Ultimate's Quick Cocktail Recipe downloadable ebook with awesome cocktail recipes you can make straight away, outstanding Gear Ultimate customer support, plus more Gear Ultimate ebooks on the way.
  • BUY WITH CONFIDENCE: Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed because we are not happy until you are happy! We are so confident that you are going to love your Gear Ultimate Pure Copper Mug that we offer a LIFETIME no-hassle guarantee from manufacturer defects.
  • TOP QUALITY & DESIGN: With a classic 16 oz size, it is the perfect size of a mug to hold in your hand. The mug of choice when serving the infamous Moscow Mule, a cocktail made from a blend of vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice.
  • YOUR BEST CHOICE: Perfect for enhancing the flavor and keeping all your favorite drinks cold and refreshing, be it a russian moscow mule, whiskey, vodka, rum, margarita, tequila mixed drink, stinger, beer, infused water, iced coffee, iced tea and many more. Constructed of 100% solid pure copper, it has no stainless steel or nickel lining, which ensures it is contamination-free. It is not an imitation copper plated mug, nor is it lined with tin, nickel, steel, or food lacquer inner coatings. Solid copper is crucial for chemical ionization of acids commonly found in citrus fruits like lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, and it ensures the appropriate citric acid to copper reaction for which moscow mules are known. Handcrafted and polished to perfection, with a perfect 16 oz size for cocktails, this stunningly beautiful copper drinking cup makes an excellent gift for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, or simply as a fun novelty addition to your current bar collection.

Here are my thoughts:

There is just something about copper mugs that I find so beautiful and I am totally in love with. They just ooze brightness and excellent quality. And they feel really modern and trendy. At first I thought that this singular mug was super overpriced as I have gotten a couple of sets of four Moscow Mule mugs for not that much more than this one costs. But then I realized that my other sets were not 100% solid copper like this mug is. In fact my sets are hammered copper on the outside only. The insides of the mugs are not even copper. And what a difference it makes in flavor to have the 100% pure copper. Not to mention how strong and sturdy it is. It feels much more solid and higher quality over all.

Pack of 4, Cree LED Flashlight by BYB


Here is what Amazon says about the product details:
  • Super Bright 150 lumen (Max Output), Compact Design for everyday carry / emergency
  • 3 Light Modes: High, Low and Strobe; One button, easy to operate; Wrist strap included
  • Adjustable Focus: Spotlight for long range observation; Floodlight for large area illumination
  • Power Source: 3x 1.5V AAA batteries, Not Included. Excellent Deal for Superior Quality!
  • Impact and Water Resistant (IPX4), premium aluminum casing resists rust and corrosion

Here are my thoughts:

These are teeny little flashlights, but they pack a lot of punch. It the prefect size to keep in my purse, glove box, an emergency kit or a drawer. The flashlights have extendable necks so that you can have a broad light range as well as a pointed spot light. And there are three light settings of high, low, and flashing. The light isn't the most powerful I have seen, but it's still pretty incredible especially considering just how tiny the flashlights are. These require 3 AAA batteries, which is kind of a lot, and they aren't included. But I still feel like they are decently priced for what you get.

Slant Tip Tweezers by LE ZÈLE Professional


Here is what Amazon says about the product details:
  • HAND FILED SLANTED TIPS are perfectly aligned for the removal of all unwanted eyebrow, ingrown, facial, nose and body hair with expert precision. Easily grab all unwanted hairs the first time, every time.
  • EXCELLENT TENSION ensures that hair will not slip through the tips while tweezing. Great tension also allows these slant tweezers to function well as a false eyelash applicator for eyelash extensions.
  • UNIQUE CURVED DESIGN allows eyebrow tweezers to rest perfectly into your hand for superior comfort and control while flawlessly shaping brows or removing those hard to get ingrown hairs and splinters.
  • LIGHTWEIGHT stainless steel construction creates eyebrow tweezers that are both sleek and sturdy.
  • MONEY BACK GUARANTEE makes your purchase risk free. A full refund or replacement will be provided if you are not fully satisfied with your tweezers within 60 days of purchase.

Here are my thoughts:

These tweezers are a big step up from what I am used to. I can get even the teeniest, finest, little hair with incredible accuracy and precision. And they really get the hair on the first attempt. I don't have to try several times before I can yank it out. And I don't have hairs being clipped by the tweezers instead of pulling the whole root out like my old tweezers did. I also use tweezers to apply my false eyelashes and I was nervous these would not work as well for that because there is not as much width to hold onto the lashes. Fortunately they still worked just fine. And these are extremely well priced.

  • Our product comes with a Lifetime Guarantee so you can buy with confidence!

Here are my thoughts:

I have been teaching myself how to cut hair so that I can keep my husband and son looking good without breaking the bank. It's been a slow process and I just recently got brave enough to try scissor cutting. My best friend is a hair dresser so she's helped me with supplies, but since she moved I had to get my own stuff. I've been pretty happy with these scissors thus far. They are really very similar to the pair that my friend had. Super sharp and they give that pleasant little snick sound. They are pretty comfortable to hold and use too. My issue was the case is a little cheap looking and feeling and the comb that I got had some bent bristles.

1ct Three Stone Cubic Zirconia Ring by Rosa Vila Jewelry


Here is what Amazon says about the product details:
  • 1CT Three Stone Simulated Diamond CZ Ring with Two Color Options: Rose Gold Tone and Silver Ring
  • Three Stone Engagement Ring and Wonderful Gift Idea: Birthday, Anniversary, Gift for her, Mother's day, Sister Necklaces, Bridesmaid Gift, Gift for best friend, Graduation Gift, Gift for girlfriend.

Here are my thoughts:

This ring really differs from my usual style. I have always been more of a solitaire girl, myself. But I actually really like it. The ring is super shiny and sparkly which I love. And I feel like the stones are like the "just right" size for my hand. So the ring stands out and draws attention without being overbearing or gaudy. I ordered a size 7 because that is what typically fits my left ring finger and the fit was true to size. I just wish I could pair it with a band to make it look more like a set. But the settings for the stones jut out right off the band so it wouldn't work.

  • Crafted in Paris and made in united Arab emirates (UAE), reflects a hallmark IOF relentless creation of contemporary designs
  • Designed by some of the most prestigious and renowned French/European perfumers and manufactured in state of the art facility in UAE
  • For sophisticated and beautiful women, devotion eau de perfume will get your attention
  • The perfume is inspired by a classic but sophisticated woman
  • Very unique scent more modern and classic style

Here are my thoughts:

This is a very light and airy scent. It's got a lot of citrus as well as floral notes, but grapefruit really stands out the most to me. It sometimes reminds me of Clinique Happy. I really like how soft and feminine the scent is. I think it's the perfect scent for daytime, but I don't think it is strong enough for evening. The bottle is really pretty too. It is a very unique prism type shape that is I believe clear, but the pink bands around the top and bottom give the bottle a pale pink cast.

Here are my thought:

This set is really very nice looking. The set has a microphone and the cord has a button for pause/play or answer/hang up. The sound is not the best I have heard, but definitely pretty darn good. The fit is OK, although it is not very adjustable. There is a small amount of length you can add to each side and that's it. We think it needs greater length adjustment, including going smaller than it will. Also some swivel on the speakers would be nice, but they're definitely still comfortable enough to use. Overall we like these headphones and definitely think they're well worth the price for what you get.
