Reviews and DIY

Hello Everyone! This review is about an exfoliating facial peel by Erno Laszlo.  I did receive this product for testing purposes, however this is an honest review of the product.  If you want to read more about the product, here is the link to their website: https://www.ernolaszlo.com/collection/white-marble/white-marble-dual-phase-vitamin-c-peel.html October 23, 2017 I have used the peel twice now, along with the translucence cream.  When you first put on "Step 1" it feels a bit grainy, but not too tough on your skin.  You are supposed to rub it in, gently, for 3 minutes, then add "Step 2".  When I put on "Step 2", which is the activator, I get a warm sensation that I was taken back by at first.  You then rub it in for a minute and gently wash off. After two uses, my impression so far is that it is a nice, relaxing peel to use.  I was afraid at first because I thought a 'peel' might include some harsh process.  I hadn't used a peel bef...

Hi Everyone, today I'm reviewing this air freshener: As usual, this post is an honest review.  I haven't received payment or any free products for writing this review. If I had to rate this product from 1-5, I'd go with 1 stars.  I would really hope to be able to give 0 stars if possible.  This is a very low review, but I'll expand upon my reasoning for this below. I was surprised to find the ratings for this product is generally high across several websites, but the reason I give it a low review and won't buy it again is because it lingers in the air.  You may take that to mean the scent stays in the air for quite some time, but that is not what I mean.  By 'lingering', I mean, you can actually see the spray in the air and it quickly falls over everything, everywhere.  Even after only spraying this for a second as high up in the air as I can, you an see that it slowly drops to the floor.  If you spray for 3-4 seconds, let's say in a bat...

I cannot seriously say enough great things about ItWorks! WOW product. "WOW" is short for Wipe out Wrinkles. I first tried this because a friend of mine was selling wraps and gave me a sample. The sample she gave me was one little pouch. When you buy it, it comes in a box with a bunch of packets inside. I was able to use the package about 3-4 times. A little of the product goes a long way. Be careful not to apply too much product however, as this will cause a chalky-type film on your face. Only use a little. I definitely recommend this product and several other It Works products. I loved the products so much that I became a distributor for a while. I didn't want to just sell the products without trying them first. As I try each product, I am writing a separate review on each.  Ultimately, I do recommend this product.  I don't recommend other products though, such as the wraps.  Read my review about the It Works wraps here  (will open in a new window).

I ordered this online from Julep. This color is very pretty ("Oscar") and vegan! The only bad thing is this particular color is a bit hard to take off- ok, REALLY hard to take off, especially if you apply multiple coats. Although it is very  pretty, to me it is not worth the hassle of taking it off. It's just too hard. I love the color and how it looks, but won't buy this glittery version again :(

This mask smells amazing and lasts a long time. I definitely recommend trying this product!

Doesn't this color look so pretty? It is! It actually works really well too, not like other nail polishes where you sometimes have to put several coats on! I have written some less glowing reviews of other nail polishes but don't have anything bad to say about this one. I love it!

 This past halloween I finally carved my own pumpkin and since I love pumpkin seeds so much and try to waste as least as I can, I decided to try making my own homemade pumpkin seeds. It worked out really well and was really easy! While you are gutting your pumpkin, just save the seeds (and the pumpkin gooze) in a bowl. After you're done with your pumpkin carving, you can roast the seeds later. Just try to get as much goo off the seeds as you can. Then dry them, add some oil and salt, put them in the oven at 325 degrees for 25-30 minutes, and that's it! About halfway through, turn the seeds and mix them around in the pan. Here's a before and after: The taste of homemade seeds are way better than store-bought seeds in my opinion. If I carve a pumpkin next year I will definitely make some homemade seeds again!
