A much dreaded problem that we can't avoid is cellulite. Yes, that ugly bumpy orange peel skin that we strive to hide away from sight. You can have wonderful, shapely legs, but can't go out in shorts because of dreaded cellulite. Cellulite cream is a wonderful solution to try to get rid of it!
Bonapiel makes a wonderful anti-cellulite cream. Cellulite is the result of fat, fluid retention and poo circulation. Bonapiel's cream includes caffeine and retinol, which are the most recommended ingredients by renowned doctors for treating cellulite. Caffeine reduces water retention and fat cell clusters. Retinol helps with collagen production, skin regeneration and hydration. It also includes lactic acid and rosehip seed oil to help you achieve firmer skin as well.
I've only been using it for a week now, but already I'm noticing firmer skin. It hasn't really given me visible results for the cellulite yet, but it's a product that you need to use continuously for real results. The smell is a little strong, but not unpleasant at all, I actually kind of liked it. It smells almost minty sweet but not quite, reminds me of hot tea kind of. Just a little bit of the cream goes a long way and absorbs well into the skin without leaving it feeling greasy. I've noticed a slight warming then cooling sensation, but it's not nearly as strong as some other thermal creams I've tried before. With already firmer skin, I can't wait to see what the results will be after a month of using this!

If you're like me and my husband, then you have a lot of keys! With three vehicles, riding lawn mower, two storage sheds, and countless tool boxes with locks, the keys tend to really accumulate. An then of course, there's those mystery keys floating around. We're not quite sure what they go to, but they ARE for something, so we're going to hang onto them for years in case we ever figure out what they go to. Keychains can get quite bulky, especially if you need to carry them in your pocket. A simple way to condense them all is to use a compact key holder.
The W-Plus compact key holder can hold anywhere from 2-15 keys, compacting them all into a small form about the size of a pocket knife. You can easily slip the key holder into a pocket without a bunch of bulging and poking. The key holder kit comes with all the needed pieces, a velvet like storage pouch and detailed instructions. The instructions make it look a lot more intimidating than it really is. I was able to put together a small bundle of 6 keys in less than 5 minutes.
I decided to combine keys from two different keychains that are for the sheds and come toolboxes to try to make it easier for my husband. I simply put a small black washer on two screws, inserted them into one of the bottom plates, put a red washer on, layered the keys on there, put another red washer, then top plate and screwed a smaller screw into the top. It was actually really simple and easy to do. There's extra spacers and some extenders included if you want to load it up with even more keys.
The keys tended to kind of wiggle loose and splay out the sides. However, when I tightened down the screw until they were absolutely snug, the keys stayed in there better. It seems the more keys you put in it, the better it holds. Overall, this compact key holder is a great way to cut back on bulky keychains!

I love cooking and baking. A vital necessity is having quality utensils and equipment. Having a good mixing bowl set is almost priceless, especially when you're using a hand mixer or making some really thick dough. Cheap flimsy plastic bowls just will not cut it in my kitchen! Kukpo makes the most high quality plastic mixing bowl set I've ever used! I also have a measuring cups and spoon set from Kukpo also, and they are just incredible! Kukpo is definitely becoming one of my favorite kitchen brands!
The three piece mixing bowl set is made of the highest quality BPA free FDA approved plastic and has a stylish shiny finish. They are literally meant to last decades! They come in three different sizes - a large 5 quart, medium 3 quart, and small 1.5 quart to suit you every need. They each come with a perfectly fitting lid that seals airtight and is waterproof. That is a huge thing for me as I sometimes have to refrigerate doughs sometimes. They would also be great to use to marinate meat in since they'll help keep everything sanitary! I'm used to just slapping some saran wrap on top of bowls when I put them in the fridge to set, so this is a really huge bonus for me! Each of the bowls also has a no skid rubberized bottom that can grip even under the most rigorous of mixing. I tried my hand mixer and a hand whisk in these and they didn't move at all. That means you don't have to hold on to them and can use your hand for other more useful stuff. No more spinning bowls while you have to gradually add an ingredient while beating at the same time! Cleanup is a breeze as they are completely dishwasher safe and nothing really sticks to slick plastic sides much anyways. If that's not enough, these bowls are also freezer safe too!
There's so many possibilities of different things you can do with these awesome bowls! You can mix, store food, marinate, freeze, keep salads fresh, or even just use them as serving bowls since they're so nice looking! These are the most versatile bowls I've ever used and I'm absolutely in love with them!The possibilities are endless!

I absolutely love baking! There's nothing more irking than making some awesome cupcakes or muffins and then having them stick to the pan! Then you have to grab a butter knife or spatula and try to pry them in out in one piece. It kind of ruins the prettiness if you're sharing them with somebody. A fabulous new trend is using silicone baking products!
BrilliantChef makes a beautiful muffin pan bundle that is absolutely perfect for gifting to that special baker in your life. Their 12 cup muffin/cupcake pan is made of high quality non-stick food grade silicone. That means no more muffins sticking! They pop out effortlessly and cleanly, looking just like they came out of a bakery. Their bundle also includes a spatula so you can scrape every last bit of the batter into the cups. I tried the spatula out and it worked absolutely wonderful! It scarped very well and was nice and flexible. Also included is a pastry brush for when you need to brush the tops with butter to get that wonderful golden brown color. To top it off, they also include a whole bundle of paper baking cups with cute hearts on them so you can make some really beautiful cupcakes or muffins! Cleanup is also a pure breeze. The muffin cups are completely dishwasher safe, so you can just throw them in there. If you're like me and wash everything by hand, I basically just had to rinse it off since there was really not much mess at all.
I baked some blueberry muffins to try this pan out, using liners on three of them. They baked perfectly in my gas oven with no burning on the bottom which tends to happen occasionally with my metal pans. The pan was cool to the touch within 5 minutes. The muffins in the liners just popped right out with no effort at all. The other muffins, I simply pushed up from underneath the pan and the popped right out effortlessly. I was really impressed with how easy the muffins I made popped out! See my video here-
Overall, I'm totally in love with this new silicone muffin pan! It amazes me how easy it was to get my muffins out! I gotta apologize to my old metal pans, sorry- ya'll lasted for years, but you're going into storage because I'm only using this one from now on!

Arm the Animals is an organization that strives to make activism fashionable by creating killer apparel to help cash strapped animal care organizations.4,000,000 - 5,000,000 animals are euthanized every year because people simply don't do the basics such as spaying, neutering, feeding, and loving their furry friends. Shelters are constantly running low on funds to help care for the overflow of desperate animals. Arm the Animals graciously donates a portion of every sale to a number of highly reputable shelters with a NO KILL policy. So go ahead and feel good about yourself when you order one of these shirts because you're also helping some animals out too!
The shirt itself is very soft and extremely comfortable and fits very well. I love the black color as it's neutral and can be paired with a number of pants I own. And i mean it when I say that it's super comfortable! I'll definitely be lounging around the house a lot wearing this! I love the cute kitten throwing a grenade- it's funny and adorable! I'm going to really enjoy wearing this shirt out in public and explaining the cause behind it to anybody who asks. Wear your support with pride people and let's help some animals out!

Me and my husband are constantly working outside doing projects on the weekend and we just have to have music while we do stuff. We live in a small town and the local radio stations only play country music from the 60's. I mean seriously, who even listens to some of that stuff anymore? It can be horrible and we end up just turning off the radio and working in silence rather than listen to some of that stuff. Don't get me wrong, we love country music- just not the slow big band opera song type they always play. Sometimes we just need to jam out to get the job done if you know what I mean. AYL makes a portable waterproof speaker that easily connects to our phones with Bluetooth and we can finally jam out!
They AYL portable speaker is very small and compact and well....cute! It only measures 3.5" x 3.5" x 1.5" and comes with a nice mesh type carrying bag. It can very easily fir into a purse or other bag so you can take it with you anywhere without it taking up too much space. It also has a nice silicone handle that you can use to easily carry it around or to hang somewhere. The speaker is very cute and attractive and I absolutely love the blue color that it came in. Also included with the speaker was a USB charging cable, and aux in cable and a short instruction manual. This powerful little speaker easily charges off a USB cable and I even plugged it into my phone charger and it charged just fine. No more worrying about changing out expensive batteries! You can listen up to 12 hours off of one charge! I simply plugged the USB cable into my computer and in less than an hour it was fully charged. While it's charging, a small orange light came on. The speaker easily paired with my phone in just a few seconds, it came up under "SoundFit". It makes a cute little chime when it connects and it's ready to go.
When I played my first song on it, I was surprised with how great the sound quality was! It sounded just as good as my 60" soundbar that I have and actually played bass really good. On top of the speaker is volume buttons, a power button and a play/pause button so you can control it from there or though your phone. It has a very versatile range of up to 33 feet, so you can put it somewhere and be pretty far away with your phone and still control it easily. I'm very happy that it's waterproof as well just in case it starts raining while we're outside I don't have to have a heart attack if it gets a little wet. I wasn't actually brave enough to throw it in a bucket of water, but the instructions suggest to let it drain fully if it gets wet. The speaker itself seems very durable and can definitely be dropped and roughed up a bit without any damage occurring. This speaker is absolutely awesome with incredible sound quality! I can't wait to take it camping! If you'd like an absolutely awesome waterproof bluetooth speaker too, you can get one here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B016G6X9WC #AYLBluetoothspeaker

Even my six year old son thought this t-shirt was too cool, and I had to chase him around the house to get it back from him! The shirt itself is very soft and comfortable and fits very well. I love the soft gray color as it's neutral and can be paired with a number of pants I own. This is a men's shirt, but women can definitely wear it too- I do!

We like to try to eat thrifty in my household, and I'm always storing leftovers from dinner for our lunches the next day. My six year old is also very picky and won't eat his school lunches, so I have to pack him a lunch a few times a week also. A common problem we've had is that the standard tupperware is just one compartment, and food tends to run together or leak occasionally. A simple solution that is becoming more popular nowadays is to use Bento lunchboxes that also help with portion control.
Orgalif make a wonderfully durable lunch box set. It comes in a handy 5 pack to easily cover each day of the work week if you'd like to plan ahead. The lids are each a different color- blue, green , orange, red and purple . Each lunch box is divided into three parts- a large section perfect for a sandwich or piece of chicken, a medium compartment perfect for a small salad or other good sized side, and a smaller compartment that's perfect for a good side vegetable or even dip. Each section is perfectly sized to help with portion control so you don't end up packing too much, yet they're still large enough o have a nice full lunch. The plastic is amazingly strong and can definitely stand up to being dropped or battered around a little bit. The lids seal really good and are completely leak proof, making them ideal for putting in a backpack without worrying about them. They are microwavable, dishwasher-safe and perfect for freezing! I really love these containers and have been packing my husband's lunches in these for a few days now. He tends to just throw a container into his front seat and these have stood up to that without any leakage! I love how they're color coded too so I can assign one to each day of the week and know which lunch to grab each morning.
