I finally got some good sleep!

The Healthi Bodi Sleep Mask with earplugs is such a great product!


It really does block out all of the light allowing you to get a peaceful night of sleep! Most other masks I have tried always let in light around the nose area but not these. It has a little flap that you tuck in and it totally blocks out the light. It is nice and cushiony so it does not irritate your eyes while you sleep. I really liked that it has an adjustable velcro band so it fit my head size perfectly! I really like that it has the little slots on the band so you can store the earplugs while not in use. 

After getting up for a bathroom break around 7am I was able to go right back to sleep and get a couple of more hours of sleep in. 


I received this in exchange for my honest review and I am glad I did because I can finally get a good nights sleep... or finally a nap during the day!

SmartTech Gloves Review


I can't believe it but these actually work!!!





 I still have the smaller iPhone 4S but it was still very easy to text while wearing these SmartTech Gloves!  I had to make sure they were pulled tight on my fingers since I have short fingers but other than that they were awesome! They are really thick gloves that kept my hands very warm... which is nice since it is so cold right now! They are a very nice quality glove. 









My daughter in law has already tried to take them from me but she is just gonna have to get her own!! I love mine and won't be parting with them! I haven't left home without them since receiving them for in exchange for my honest review. Thanks iGotTech Gloves!!!



You can purchase the SmartTech Gloves   HERE from the iGotTech website

Comfy pillows



These feather pillows are so soft & fluffy and really comfy. I didn't have any little feathers sticking through the material and poking me like most other feather pillows I've owned. 




I liked using them behind my back while sitting on the couch. Since I am short they really helps me sit more comfortably. My husband likes putting them behind his head while watching tv or playing games on the computer. They are the perfect size for keeping on the couch as a throw pillow but would also be good to use for sleeping with. My only complaint would be that they didn't come with a pillow cover and the 20 x 20 size might be hard to find in stores. I should be able to make a set of covers if I can't find the right size and/or color to match my couch. 

They come a little flattened from shipping and have that shipping smell to them. However, it is very easy to fluff them up and get the odor out by sticking them in the dryer for about 10-20 minutes. The company even emailed me explaining just how to do it before I even received my order from Amazon.

I chose Bed, Bath and Beyond  since it's the closest to my house. Plus, they are always sending me coupons for 20% off.  I have been trying to  decide what I want to buy but it's so hard. The only thing I have fully decided on is one of those KitchenAid Stand Mixers. I've always wanted one but they are so expensive. 
The lady emailed me back yesterday and told me it would take a couple of weeks to get my prizes shipped out. I guess that will give me plenty of time to browse online. lol

InstaNatural Dead Sea Mud Mask Review



Do you need a spa day? Yes? Then you are gonna love the InstaNatural Dead Sea Mud Mask! It is 100% natural and mineral infused. It will help detoxify and purify your skin. 


Here is what Instanatural says regarding their Dead Sea Mud Mask:
Dead Sea Mud Mask is an all-natural detoxifier and purifier that comes from the renowned and sacred Dead Sea. More than a million visitors each year flock to this extraordinary body of water in the Mediterranean, which contains many minerals beneficial to the skin, such as magnesium, sodium, bromine, potassium and calcium.
Once applied, this mud mask treatment starts working to absorb excess oil, dirt and toxins from the skin. It is great to expunge acne, pimples and blackheads. It also helps to restore an even skin tone for a smoother complexion. When used as a body treatment, the mud mask can soothe and relieve muscle aches and pains.
Whether used on the face or the body, our Dead Sea Mud Mask is a superb in-home spa treatment that will reveal more vibrant, refined, healthier skin.

Now my thoughts: It is a great mask!! It was super easy to apply and to remove. It dried in about 15 minutes and I simply washed off with a warm wash cloth.  I love that it detoxifies and pulls out all of the impurities in your skin. I also like that I can also you use on my entire body for healthier skin all over and not just my face. 
My skin feels so soft and refreshed after using the Dead Sea Mud Mask. It is an awesome addition to my skin care routine. It is like I have a weekly spa day in the comforts of my home. 


I know you are gonna love the  InstaNatural Dead Sea Mud Mask as much as I do! Click HERE to buy.

Purex Powershot Laundry Detergent Review



I love the new Purex PowerShot laundry detergent and so will you!! It's the only detergent that does the measuring for you. Just flip open the cap, turn the bottle upside down, dose, and you're done! Once you flip it right side up again, it's automatically ready for the next time. It really is that simple and easy!




Not only does it  dispense just the right amount of  detergent it has a super concentrated formula that has 50% more stain fighting power in every drop.

One dose is all you need for regular loads and if you have larger or heavier loads, just use two doses! 

It comes in two great fragrances, Mountain Breeze and Natural Elements Linen & Lilies. I received the Mountain Breeze and found the scent pleasant. My clothes smelled great after washing.

Overall, I really like how little of the Purex Powershot detergent is needed to get my family's clothes super clean. Which in turn saves me money!

InstaNatural Dead Sea Mud Mask, Serum, and Moisturizer

I received the InstaNatural Dead Sea Mud Mask, Age-Defying Retinol Serum, and the Advanced Action Retinol Moisturizer to review for being partnered with Brand Backer.


After showering I applied the  Dead Sea Mud Mask while my face was still a little damp. It was very easy to apply.

This was after applying a small amount. I think it will take a few tries to get the right amount evenly applied. 


This next picture was after waiting 15 minutes. I had a few areas that wasn't quite dry but I think that was because I didn't have it applied evenly. I am sure that will get better with time. 


So after it dried I took a warm wet wash cloth and laid it over my face for about 10 seconds to loosen the mask up as directed. Then I washed if off.  I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it washed off. (I've tried other masks that took forever to wash off.) 

My skin felt very smooth and soft afterwards. I also loved how refreshed my face felt after using the Dead Sea Mud Mask. I will definitely continue to use this once a week as directed. 


Next, I applied the InstaNatural Anti-Aging Retinol Serum. 



The directions said to use a small amount but I think I ended up using a couple of dropperfuls to cover my entire face. It was a lot thinner than I anticipated for a serum. It smell great!!! It has a very refreshing citrus scent.. it reminded me of oranges and grapefruits. I loved how refreshed my skin felt after using. 


Last, it was time for the InstaNatural Advanced Action Retinol Moisturizer:



The directions were to apply a small amount in an upward circular motion with your fingertips. It only took a small amount to cover my entire face... I think I used 2 pumps. It dried very quickly and left my skin feeling incredibly soft and smooth. 


Overall, I loved all 3 products. They left my skin feeling incredibly soft and refreshed after just one use. I can't wait to see the results after continuous use. I will post an update and more detailed review after I've used them for a longer period! These are great products from a great company that backs them 100%! The company also has great customer service! They took the time out to email tips and directions on how to use each product.
