 For some reason my hair just doesn't grow much. I think it's because I had a head surgery as a child and it damaged my scalp in some way. I'm always so envious of other people that can cut their hair and have it grow back inches in moths! I average about a half inch a year, maybe. Since I'm currently pregnant though, I've been taking prenatals and I believe my hair might actually be growing a little bit!Yay! So now I'm going hair crazy and trying to help accelerate my growth in any way I can.I thought the Rapunzel Hair Growth Shampoo would be a perfect secret little helper!
  The shampoo itself comes in a small 8 fl oz bottle that would be perfect for a travel bag. It's made of all natural ingredients to help nourish your follicles and help promote hair growth. It smells like lime and some floral type scent- it's very pleasant! It somewhat reminds me of key lime pie, which I think smells really pleasant. The consistency is a little thinner so it flows pretty freely and you only need a small amount. I hate shampoo that is too thick! Rapunzel lathers up very well and you can tell a difference once you rinse it out. My hair definitely felt smoother and softer after just the first use. I haven't been using it long enough to truly tell if it's helping my hair grow yet, but it definitely smoothed out some of my frizz and hydrated my hair!

  My husband currently stores all of his toiletry items either crowded on a shelf or in an old tacklebox that he stores under the bathroom sink. He's constantly having to look  for different items and then leaves them all over the counter in his morning rush to get out the door. I've been wanting to get him a stylish bag for a while now, and I was thrilled when offered to review the Mirror On a Rope Toiletry Bag!

 The Toiletry Bag is made of premium quality PVC leather with a nylon liner on the inside. There's one main zippered pocket for the larger items and a smaller side zippered pocket for the smaller items. It measures  9.5"L x 5"H x 4.25"W and can easily fit on a small shelf or into a backpack without taking up much room at all. It's very high quality, durable and most important of all- waterproof! The nice black leather case is very attractive and looks great! A durable handle on the side also makes it perfect for carrying or even hanging somewhere as well.
  I was able to easily fit my husband's hair clippers, razor, shaving cream, deodorant and face wash in the larger pocket with room to spare. The smaller side pocket was absolutely perfect for his toothbrush and toothpaste to easily fit in. He loved the sleek design and I loved having my counters cleared off finally! This is a very nice, high quality bag that fits a lot of items in and looks great!

  Electric foot callus removers are all the rage right now! I've really been wanting to try one, just never actually gotten around to getting one yet. I have one of those old fashioned Ped-Eggs that I've been using for years. Bot, that thing takes forever to use and my arms get tired. I'm exhausted by the time I finish both feet! Then my husband will usually come plop his feet in my lap wanting me to do his too! It's so tedious that I only do the procedure once every other month or so.  

 The Lift Care callus remover is the first of it's kind to come with a USB charging cable! That means no batteries wearing down! The callus remover kit comes with the callus remover, an extra grinding head replacement (two in total) , a soft cleaning brush, USB cable and a small user manual. To charge,  simply plug the USB charging cable into the bottom of the callus remover and plug the cable into any open USB port. A small red light comes on, letting you know that it's charging. The charging cable is pretty short, so you need to keep it very close to the power source. The box says it needs 8-10 hours charging time, but I only needed about 2 hours for my first charge.
​  A clear plastic head cover is on the grinding head already on the remover body. The callus remover is a nice, eye-pleasing white with lime green accents and sits in the hand very comfortably. The heads give you a wide angle to comfortably cover every bit of your foot. It gently and effectively buffs away dry, callused skin in seconds. It's very lightweight, easy to use, portable and waterproof. You can easily clean it by using the small cleaning brush or rinsing in water. 

 The callus remover was very easy to use, I simply switched it on and ran it over my heel. In just about 30 seconds, my heel was nice, smooth and soft. It's slightly loud, but not too bad. You need to make sure and not press down too hard on it, otherwise it might stall or slow down. Use a light, even pressure and it takes it right off! I love how eco-friendly it is by not using batteries, plus it saves money buying them too! This electric callus remover is way better than my old-school Ped-Egg!

 I'm a bit of an earring junkie. I have dozens of pairs because I just can't see, to get enough of them! I'm not big on piercings, but I did pierce my ears three times just because I love having that extra bling peeking out from under my hair. I love shiny, glittery, earrings with jewels in them. 

  These gorgeous ear cuff earrings from Everu make me just sigh with pleasure! They cover the whole bottom part of my ear and look completely stunning! The earrings come in a cute little pink gift box that is absolutely perfect for gifting! They're silver plated and nickel free with a  925 sterling silver post and real CZ diamond accents. The backs are silver with the plastic guard around the edges.  They sit on the ear perfectly and really are just gorgeous! They don't look all cheap like other earrings, they actually look high quality! These earrings are stunning and go amazing with any outfit whether it's casual or formal!

 My natural hair is poofy and curly like a lion's mane. I usually shower at night and then straighten it first thing in the morning. I NEVER leave the house without my hair fixed! I usually use a Chi flat iron since other straighteners never seem to keep my hair straight for long. One thing I worry about with that straightener is that it dries my hair out and damages it too much. I've tried a steam straightener and it didn't even begin to get my hair right, so I was pretty skeptical trying out the Sela Beauty Steam Straightener. Surprisingly, it worked better than my good ol Chi!

 The Sela Beauty Ultrasonic Steam Straightener has a revolutionary ultrasonic cool steam function to give added moisture and shine to your hair. It has floating ceramic plates that are much wider than other flat irons, meaning you can do bigger sections at once. The cord swivels 360 degrees to reach any position without tangling. A small water tank is on the top of the straightener, you simply remove it by pushing an unlock lever, fill with tap water, shake and pop back in. You can choose to have the steam on or off, depending on your preference at the time. There's 5 heat settings- 305 ,340, 375, 410 and 445 which you can adjust with +/- buttons on either side of the power button. It has an immediate heat up and stays at a stable temperature the whole time.

 The straightener heated up in just a few seconds after turning it on. The steam comes out of a tiny whole at the base of the plates, and it wasn't hot or painful whatsoever. As you can see, my hair was pretty bushy and wavy after just brushing it. I was able to straighten my hair faster than I would with my other flat iron since it handles bigger sections. The steam made a sizzling noise, but I've straightened my hair wet many times, so it wasn't too startling to me. It only took one good pass with the straightener to get my hair straight, yet I ran it through a second time just for good measure. It was very easy to hold and wasn't clunky like other steam straighteners can be. 
   My hair definitely feels moister and looks shinier than my usual results with a flat iron. It held the straightness very well for the rest of the day and felt a lot softer. My only lament is the water tank seemed too small and I had to refill it halfway through straightening. Other than that, this straightener works awesomely and my hair feels so much more moist and healthy!

  I'm currently six months pregnant with my second lil boy. I remember when my first one was teething and it was a true pain- literally! He would randomly bite me or gnaw on my shirt or any other thing that just happened to be in his reach. I've never heard of teething necklaces, and now that I know about them, I'm going to stock up on as many as I can! It's pure genius!

  The silicone necklace is a gorgeous shade of turquoise that looks absolutely stunning against dark colored shirts. It is made of food grade silicone that is 100% non-toxic, BPA free and baby safe. You never have to worry about them accidentally ingesting harmful chemicals from this necklace! The silicone beads are soft yet firm and help sooth your baby's teeth and gums as they chew on it. The color and design are eye catching so they'll go for the necklace instead of pawing at your shirt or earrings. The necklace has a fully adjustable length so you can choose how long you would like to wear it. The connections in the back just pull apart, but you have to put a little bit of force to get it open and the baby shouldn't be able to yank it off of you. 
   This necklace would make a brilliant baby shower or new mommy gift! It comes in a cute little box that would be perfect for gift wrapping. It's very cute and fashionable and you can easily wear it with any everyday outfit and still be posh! I love the color and the design as well as the texture and functionality of this cute necklace! It is an absolutely brilliant invention!

 Though I'm only 26, I'm still concerned about caring for my skin, especially my face. It's the first thing people see usually! I've tried Azure Naturals products before, and they've worked fabulously! The Ocean Minerals line has surpassed my previous expectations with their high quality products. Their whole system of the Ocean Minerals Hydration will leave your face glowing, hydrated, feeling great and looking good! You should start with the Seaweed Hydration Mask, then the Organic Facial Cleanser, the Organic Facial Toner and lastly the Organic Hydration Creme. When properly layered, they maximize the anti-aging benefits of one another. Age spots diminish, blemishes fade, fine lines fill in, collagen is boosted and your skin glows! Anti-radiation properties found in the seaweed help protect your skin from daily and long term sun damage and aging.

​The Ultimate Seaweed Hydration Mask is made of deeply healing clays of Kaolin and Smectite and are infused with the benefits of over 90 marine extracts and trace minerals to help clarify, soothe and clean your skin. Seaweed, Irish Moss and Spirulina are included to help restore firmness and elasticity to your skin. A blend of safflower oil, sweet almond oil, rice brand oil and grapeseed oil provide significant levels of antioxidant and hydration protection. The mask is gentle enough for all skin types and can be used several times a week or even daily.
 To use, simply apply a generous amount to your face and neck, or even to your whole body. Allow to dry. It is a very creamy mask and doesn't completely harden like other clay masks. It just gets stiff and flaky and still flexible. Use a damp steamed towel to wipe off or remove with warm water.
  I rinsed my face with plain water and then applied the mask. It gave me a nice cooling feeling and started to tighten a little as it dried, but I considered that a really good thing. It's very light and not heavy at all. The smell is pleasant, it's not overwhelming or chemical smelling like some other stuff. I let it dry for about 20 minutes and then rinsed off with warm water. My skin felt so smooth, soft and hydrated! I feel like it completely rejuvenated my face with just the first use!

 ​After finishing my mask treatment,  I tried out the Organic Facial Cleanser. The Facial cleanser is saturated with a proprietary seaweed and mineral complex and is packed with vitamins, minerals, trce elements and polysaccharides for a balanced, dewy complexion. 
 To apply, you simply dispense a small amount in your hands, lather with warm water and rub into your face in small circular motions. Rinse off with warm water and you're done!
  I only had to use a tiny amount, a little bit goes quite a ways. The pump dispenser helps to regulate small amounts. It is a clear gel like texture and lathers very well with warm water. The smell is very pleasing and actually smells good! After massaging into my face, I rinsed off with warm water and it felt so revitalizing and refreshing! My skin immediately felt even silkier and smoother and was absolutely glowing!

​Following the Facial Cleanser, I used the Facial Toner. This unique moisture-repleneshing complex protects against harmful external drying and ensure optimal hydration. Infused with seaweed and Irish moss, it provides essential A,B,C and E vitamins as well as 92 other vital nutrients for the skin. This toner offers advanced restorative and healing components for all skin types, even the most sensitive skin.
  The toner can be applied all day, every day whenever you may need it as a spritzer to help rejuvinate your skin. Simply apply after washing an before you put your makeup on. It can also be used throughout the day without drying out your skin, it actually hydrates it more. It has a spray pump that sprays evenly whenever you may need a quick spritz. It helps keep oil to a minimum and leaves your skin feeling cool and refreshed. The smell is very pleasant, it's not chemical smelling at all. Every time I use it, my face feels totally refreshed and noticeably softer!

The last step to the rejuvinating Ocean Mineral Line is the Mineral Hydration Creme. It's a key component to the Ocean Mineral fce care protocol. This cream is chocked full of phyto-chemicals and 90+ ocean minerals, structured water and polysaccharides combined with the proven hydrating ingredients of shea butter and jojoba oil. It provides super hydration and moisturization to your skin. This deeply penetrating creme is the perfect accompanient to the rest of the line and is light and fresh for all skin types.
  After using the rest of the line, simply use the pump top to squirt a small amount in your hand. Rub in small circles to your face, neck and wherever else you may desire it. It's a very light creame and absorbs very quickly without leaving an oily or greasy residue. The smell is very pleasant and not chemical like other cremes. My skin felt even more hydrated and I was positively glowing by the end of all my treatments! 
 
This whole Ocean Mineral lines has done wonders for me! I live in Texas and it gets quite hot and dry around here, causing my face and skin to get dry and break out sometimes. After the first use of these products, my skin feels so silky and smooth! My skin is more elastic and hydrated and very pleasing to the touch. I'm only 26, but it still looks like a few years got taken off of my face! I would absolutely recommend this line to anybody and everybody- it is amazing! I feel like I got a complete spa treatment in the comfort of my own home!

  I'm a regular coffee drinker and I also used to smoke for about 8 years, so my teeth are stained from all the years of those activities. I haven't tried too many whitening solutions because I'm not too thrilled about wearing my enamel down with chemicals. The Dr. Whitening Natural Teeth Whitening Kit is a perfect all natural solution that I decided to try.

  The all natural whitening kit includes two special pad brushes and two packs of 5 refill pads. They don't list the actual ingredients, but say that they're all natural and organic with no chemicals. They are very simple to use. First, you wet the tip of the scrub sponge and then scrub your teeth with it instead of a toothbrush in an up and down motion. It easily removes plaque and stains with minimal effort. For stubborn spots, scrub them a little extra. You must gargle after using them! I suggest not to swallow at all while using them, just to be safe. Do not wipe your gums with it, just keep it on the teeth.
  When done with the scrub, remove the sponge and dispose of it. To refill, simply open the scrub brush, Insert a refill and fold the sponge and then close the brush. To maintain your teeth, clean every 15 days or more.

                                               BEFORE                                                                                                 AFTER
Using the teeth whitening sponge was very quick and easy. I simply wet it and scrubbed my teeth for about 5 minutes, making sure to get all the grooves and edges. It didn't have an overpowering taste, just a light taste but it wasn't unpleasant or bothersome at all. After I thought I was satisfies, I made sure to do a few rounds of gargling with plain water. Immediately, by running my tongue over my teeth, they felt a lot cleaner. I waited about 5 minutes and then took the results picture. As you can see, my teeth actually looked a lot whiter and cleaner than they did before!! That's just after one use! I'm actually incredibly impressed with this whitening system and i'm going to make it one of my regular grooming!

 We've been traveling a lot lately, and since I'm pregnant, I need to relax sometimes- especially when it's a six hour car trip! 

 This travel pillow set is incredibly comfortable! The pillow is made of memory foam and just melts into your neck! The soft blue color is very pleasing and the covering is a soft, velvety type material that is very pleasing to the touch. It comfortably fits around the neck snugly and doesn't have any weird creases or lumps. Also included is a soft, silky sleep mask to help you relax even more. It all packs into a very convenient carry bag with handles so you can take it with you wherever you may go. 
 I absolutely love this pillow, it is top of the line comfortable! Even my six year old son loves it and he's kinda taken over it on car trips!
