I have a six year old son, and I'm currently expecting another little boy. A common problem I've had is having stuffed animals, books, colors, toys and food spread out all over my backseat, especially on long car trips. It's especially frustrating when we're on the highway, and something he needs has fallen to the floor or ended up on the other side of the seat out of reach. I have actually had times where I've had to pull over on the side of a highway just to retrieve a stuffed animal he somehow can't manage without until our next stop. I was given the opportunity to review this awesome back seat organizer, and it really has simplified car trips!
The back seat organizer was very easy to install. I has two fully adjustable straps with buckles that will fit over pretty much any car seat shape. I had it installed in a minute flat! It fits nice and snug to the back of the seat and doesn't flap around hitting your kid's legs like some other organizers. It has two rows of compartments. The top row has a clear plastic covered compartment that is perfect for a DVD player or i-pad. (My husband had the dvd player in his car at work, so I didn't get a picture with it). It also has two smaller pouches that are perfect for snacks, small toys or any other little object your kid might need at hand. The bottom row had a large middle pocket to easily fit a large stuffed animal, books or anything else you might need. It has two smaller pouched on the side of that also that fit a bottle or juice cup perfectly! My son was able to easily reach everything he needed in the organizer and it really helped keep all his critical items within easy access. I'm so happy to finally have a convenient travel system now!

I have a six year old son and it's hard to try to keep my backseat clean! I can't tell you how many times I find food wrappers, french fries, candy and other misc stuff scattered all over my backseat and floorboard after a long trip. I've tries keeping a plastic grocery bag in the backseat, but somehow he conveniently forgets about it while he's absorbed in his coloring book. I was offered to review this awesome Car Bage Can by Vayeebo , and it's absolutely wonderful!
The Car Bage Can came neatly folded up and is fully collapsible at any time if you need to stash it out of the way. It easily pops up into a nice solid rectangle that measures 11.8" high, 7" wide and 11.8" deep. It came with a handful of plain plastic bags with handles and can easily accommodate a regular plastic grocery bag when you run out of them. The inside part can easily be removed if your bag leaks or falls in case a zesty kiddo throws something in there that's extra messy. It's also waterproof, so if something messy does end up in the bottom, you don't have to worry about it leaking out all over your floorboards! When you don't want it open, you can easily shut the top with a velcro seal. The Car Bage can also has a handy little side pocket that I found perfect for stashing the extra trash bags. There's also two small mesh pouches on either side that would be perfect for keeping wipes or hand sanitizer in too! There's a strap with snaps that easily attached to the back of a seat or any other place that you may desire to anchor it to.
Overall, this Car Bage Can is going to greatly help me keep my car clean, and my six year old is actually interested in throwing his trash in there! It's very easy to clean and easy to stash away if need be!

I like to keep my car looking nice and comfortable, since it's the one we like to take on long trips. I have my black leather seat covers, fashionable floor mats, cool steering wheel cover and a bluetooth stereo in it. One thing I did not have was shoulder pads. We recently went on a long 5 hour car trip, and my seatbelt was starting to chafe on my neck and actually rubbed it a little bit raw by the time we got back home. When I had the opportunity to review these shoulder pads, I thought they'd be awesome to have in my car!
The wool shoulder pads came in a nice gray color that perfectly matched my black leather seat covers and all my other accents in my car. They were extremely soft and very comfortable! Putting them on was a breeze. The open up and have a long velcro strip that is very secure. I just simply wrapped the cover around my seatbelt at the desired spot, and voila- instant comfort! I just had to take my car out for a spin with these on to try them out. They were nice and padded without being too bulky and definitely protected my neck from the seatbelt. They actually helped keep my seatbelt in place close to my shoulder so it didn't really ride up my neck at all. I'm very happy with these seatbelt covers, and they are so soft and comfortable!

I live in central Texas, and let me tell you, the sun can really beat down on you pretty much year round! I mean, here we are at the beginning of February, and it's 85 degrees outside! In the front of my car, it's east to just pop down the visor if the sun bothers me, but my poor son in he backseat just has to try to dodge the rays as much as he can in his carseat. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to review these sun shades, and my son is relieved that we have them now!
The sun shades came in a nice small pouch that is very easy to travel with. One I pulled them out of the pouch, it was like they were spring loaded and just popped open really quick on me! The measure a nice large 19.4" x 14.2" and they came with six suction cups to easily attach to the window. The suction cups slide on to the thicker edges of the sunshade to securely hold it in place, yet you can still move them around if need be. The sunshades themselves are nice and see through so my son can still look out the window, he's not completely cut off like some other sunshades. While they're see thru, they still block the sun effectively and protect against harmful UV rays. I am very happy with these sunshades, and my son is thrilled that he won't get all toasty in the backseat anymore!

A major challenge with almost anybody is trying to lose weight in a country ruled by fast food and obesity problems. It's so easy to overpack a lunch by just filling up whatever container is handy. I constantly do this with my husband's lunches. He'll text me from work telling me that I packed too much food, even though it's in a standard sized tupperware container and doesn't look like too much.
The containers were a bit smaller than I expected. They came in a small box that would be perfect for gifting since they'd never guess what it is! All of the containers easily stack inside the two larger ones for easy storage and transportation. They also came with a handy little guide that has a shopping guide and tips on maintaining your calorie intake. Each container is color coded and perfectly measured to help you easily pack a lunch without having to take time to measure or weigh out proportions.
The larger green one is for exactly 1 cup of vegetables. The large blue one is for 1 cup of fruits. The medium red one is for 3/4 cup of proteins. The medium yellow one is for 1/2 cup carbs. The medium blue one is for 1/3 cup fats. The two tiny orange ones hold 2 Tbsp of seeds and dressings. All of the containers are microwave and dishwasher safe, just be sure to remove the lids before microwaving! They suggest to not put them in the freezer as they may crack. Overall, these little containers can greatly simplify your life, especially if you have busy mornings and don't want to spend a lot of time measuring out your lunch! These are going to be great to help me and my husband lose weight, and my six year old son would love to have his lunches out of these cute containers!

Apparently, silicone rings are all the rage right now. They're perfect for when you're doing heavy work or at the gym and find it inconvenient to wear your regular wedding ring. I recently got my my husband a silicone ring, and he finds it extremely comfortable and easy to wear while he does his work. The silicone wedding ring that I received came in a cute little gift box and also came with a neat silicone clip on keychain!
I got the ring in a size 7, which is my normal ring size. It fit very well and it's nice and snug without being too tight. The ring is very comfortable to wear and I actually pretty much forgot I was wearing it within 10 minutes! I've been wearing it for a few hours now, and so far I'm not getting all sweaty like some other silicone bands. It's nice and thin and not bulky and doesn't get in the way at all with my normal daily activities.
I loved the keychain that came with it! It's a nice cool aqua color and easily clipped on to my car keys. The loop is big enough to easily fit over my wrist to conveniently carry my keys and was very comfortable. It all came in a cute little box that is perfect for gifting to somebody! I absolutely love my new silicone ring and will be wearing it from now on!

Selfie sticks are all the rage right now! Everywhere you look on social media, people are using them everyday. There's even silly cases of people posing with fake selfie sticks, using broom handles and pipes and other random objects. I'm not huge on taking photos of myself, but I was thrilled when I was offered to review this bluetooth selfie stick by Reach. I'm starting to do a lot of reviews lately, and this is definitely going to make my photo shoots a lot easier from now on!
The selfie stick is very small and compact and can easily fit in a purse, fanny pack or even your pocket if you wear cargo pants or have deep pockets without taking up too much room. The stick came with a USB charging cable and a very simple, easy to follow instruction manual.
To charge, you simply plug the USB cord into the base of your selfie stick and then plug the USB end into your computer or any other USB charging station. While charging, a red light comes on. I was also able to plug it into my phone charger and it fit perfect as well, which is awesome for when you're not near a computer but still have your phone charger! The selfie stick charged very quickly, it seemed fully charged in less than 15 minutes. It claims to hold a charge or up to three days!
The grip is rubberized and spring loaded and stretched to accommodate pretty much any phone size. It's actually a little strong and takes a little bit of practice to get your phone in there. Once your phones in though, it's very secure and in no danger of falling out while you're moving around. The grip also swivels to any direction you may need it and locks in that position with a screw type locking mechanism. You can pretty much get any angle you desire with this selfie stick!
Connecting my phone to it was a breeze! I simply pressed the button to turn the stick on. It blinked while it was searching for my phone. On my phone, I did a device search in my bluetooth menu, and it found it within just a few seconds and had n problems connecting. I put my phone in the clamp and simply pressed the camera button on the stick to start taking pictures! It was so easy!! The stick itself is telescopic and can stretch to any length up to 42 inches and anywhere in between. The grip is slightly rubberized and easily stays in your grasp without getting sweaty and slipping. This stick is very sturdy and easy to take steady pictures without shaking or blurring.
I am very impressed with how versatile this stick is, you can get pretty much any angle or distance you may desire while still staying nice and compact. It's so easy to use that I got how to use it within seconds even though I've never even seen a selfie stick in person before!

There's almost nothing as frustrating as having to run over and pick up a dropped pacifier, walk away, and have to come right back again because the little one lost their grip on it again. Not to mention the germs or dirt the dropped pacifier may collect when it hits the ground! Pacifier clips are a great way to keep pacifiers sanitary and easily within reach while saving you form having to pick one up every 5 seconds. I was given the opportunity to review these adorable pacifier clips by Sanda Lea, and I must say I'm impressed!
The pacifier clips came in tow cute girly colors- grey with flowers and purple with polka dots an hearts. They are about 8 inches long, so they can easily stay within reach without being in the way. The ribbon is made of a versatile material and has excellent stitching that I don't see even the most fidgety baby pulling apart. They are machine washable, so you can just throw them in the washing machine with everything else without having to give them any special care. The clip end is made of metal and has three teeth with a metal cover to protect them. It grasps very firmly, but doesn't mark the clothing or tear it at all like some others. The other end that attaches to the pacifier is a durable elastic band that stretched to fit over basically any pacifier size or shape. The pacifier stays securely in the band without any danger of slipping out. Overall, I'm very impressed with the quality of the pacifier clips! These would make an adorable baby shower gift! I'm 5 months pregnant, so i'm saving these for my little one, and I'm looking forward to using them!

I don't wear too much makeup, I usually just do a light powder base with and dress up my eyes with eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara. I like to go for the enhanced natural look mostly so I don't end up looking clownish. To remove my makeup, I usually just wipe it off with a washcloth in the shower. It usually takes quite a few wipes to completely remove everything and ends up making my eyes a little sore.
The microfiber cloth is extremely soft!It comes with a nice thick plastic pouch that has a zipper seal for easy storage and travel too! The instructions say to wet it with warm water and first wipe with the side without the tag. Then, you wipe with the tagged side to finish up. I was wearing eyeliner and mascara when I decided to try this out. With just he first swipe, it took most of the makeup off. The second swipe took it the rest of the remnants away. It was very soft and mild and didn't irritate my skin at all. I didn't really have to try the tagged side out, but I did a once over on my face just for good measure. I fully saturated the cloth before the makeup removal, and it dried very quickly, it seemed pretty much dry by the time I finished. I've never removed my makeup this fast and easily before!

My hair is naturally curly and like a lion's mane when left in it's natural state. I can't stand it and it gets hot and tangles very easily. Thus, I always straighten my hair after showering. I've been doing this for years and I can't even count the times I've accidentally burned my hand or fingers. My best straightener is a Chi that reaches up to 400 degrees and my hair is always too hot to handle for a minute after running it through. I found this nifty little heat resistant glove by ISA Professionals, and I just couldn't wait to try it out!
The heat resistant glove comes in a nice slim box that is perfect to easily wrap if you'd like to gift it to somebody. The glove itself is made of a nice lightweight weaved material that easily stretches to fit any hand size, male or female. The material is nice and breathable so your hand doesn't get all sweaty like some others. The fit is nice and snug and it stays in place, doesn't try to fall off or slip around on you. Overall, it's actually pretty comfortable to wear!
I decided to test how heat resistant it was by grabbing my Chi flat iron after letting it heat for a few minutes. My straightener was about as hot as I could get it, which should be around 400 degrees. I was able to easily grab it and hold on. It took about 10 seconds before it started to get warm, and about 20 seconds before it got a little uncomfortable. In real life, nobody in their right mind should be grabbing a flat iron for 20 seconds, so I would say that it's definitely heat resistant! The glove can definitely shield you from any grazes whatsoever that may happen to even the clumsiest person.
While I straighten my hair, I usually like to grab my hair to make sure it stays straight as it cools instead of curling on my shoulders. I usually have to gingerly grasp it within a few seconds and move my hand quickly before my hair burns it. With this glove, I didn't even feel any heat when I grabbed my hair. It was little hard to feel my hair through the glove, but to not get burned was totally worth it. I am very impressed with this heat resistant glove, and I'll be using it every time I straighten my hair from now on!
