Review: Sleeve Stars Premium Knee Sleeve Support



Review:
 I am always looking for knee braces that are effective and are comfortable to wear on a daily basis. I have a huge brace that has hinges and is extremely unwieldy that I received from my orthopedic doctor but it is not an every day use item. This is the latest in my long line of testing new braces.

I have had knee issues for the past 6 years due to having little cartilage under my right knee cap and it has caused pain and discomfort several times a week. Within the past year, I have become an avid gym goer, at least 4 days a week, usually 6 if I can manage it. I never thought I'd hear myself say that at the advanced age of 35 but here we are. With the addition of going to the gym, my knee has been giving me fits on a near daily basis, so having a brace that is supportive and comfortable is a must.

This brace is well made and has non-slip grips on the top/thigh area which work well. The compression is comfortable for a couple hours wear time. The only complaint that I have is that the size Large is still too small for my thigh. That is not the company's fault but my own part that I didn't check the sizing closer. I was a ballet dancer for years so my thighs are quite large and that means I have a hard time finding any brace that will fit but not constrict.  This one is the closest that I have found for a nice, comfortable fit. I would recommend this brace but definitely check the sizing!

Review: HSI Glider Ceramic Flat Iron


Company Link $79.99

https://www.hsiprofessional.com/collections/straightening-flat-irons-for-hair/products/ceramic-flat-iron-straightener?variant=839318175

Free shipping over $25.
Amazon or Paypal checkout available.


Review:
I straighten my colored, fine hair on a daily basis so I am always interested in trying new brands. I had previously bought a curling iron from this company so I knew what to expect quality wise and I was not disappointed at all. This flat iron is just as good as the ones that I have bought at Sally's Beauty supply. It comes with a heat resistant glove, an argan oil sample and a sample size argan oil hair spray which are all nice additions that I wasn't expecting. I'd definitely buy from this company again.








Company info:
 The Glider hair flat iron straightener features high quality ceramic plates that use 8 HeatBalance® micro-sensors (4 on each plate) to regulate the temperature and evenly distribute heat so that fewer passes are needed through your precious hair. That’s the best way to get silky results that shine while protecting your hair from overheat exposure.
The ceramic plates heat up in seconds, retain heat better, and prevent 'hot spots' from occurring to provide even heat distribution. The ceramic also helps keep hair shiny and frizz-free.
The temperature is full adjustable between 140-450°F to give greater control and fit any hair type. The hair straightener's floating plates have curved edges that provide extra flexibility to curl, or straighten your hair.


Includes: 
  • Glider Ceramic Flat Iron
  • HSI Style Guide
  • 1 Year Warranty
  • Free Bonus: Argan Oil Leave-In Treatment Sample

Review: 12 pk Premium Moisturizing 24k Gold Collagen Disposable Eye Care Pads


http://amzn.to/2saA0Ww
$12.95 on Amazon -12 sets
Review:
I'm 35 so I'm all about any kind of anti-aging products that can help with crepey-ness under the eyes and I love any kind of eye masks so I was super excited to test this one out. I have tried similar gold eye masks before and this gives a very similar result which is extreme hydration! The masks are a jelly texture with a serum so they do have a tendency to slip and slide when I was up and moving around BUT they did stay on my face which is nice. I have noticed that this serum doesnt play well with makeup which is why I apply before a shower, leave on for about 20 minutes and my undereye area looks great for the rest of the day.
This box includes 12 uses so this will last me at least 3 months since I only use them once a week. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is having dark circles or puffiness issues. I usually have horrible dark circles and with a little hydration, they are less noticeable.





The only con that I have deals with the packaging. It is extremely hard to get the package open without quite a bit of force and I have dropped several of the eye masks on the floor because when I was taking the backing off the wrapper, they decided to take a flying leap off the other piece of the wrapper. I'm going to include a picture of the packaging that the company provided.


Company info:
Let your eyes glow once more - Make the skin around your eyes glow and more radiant, thanks to our 24k gold eye masks that will moisturize and revive your skin as well as hydrate and plump your delicate eye area. 
  • Reduce Puffiness Instantly - As soon as you put your Eye Delight mask on you will see a significant difference; your eye puffiness will subside noticeably! And overtime they will also help with fine lines, wrinkles and dark circles!

Review: Youcopia SpiceSteps 4-Tier Cabinet Spice Rack Organizer plus GIVEAWAY


Review:
My cabinet measures 11.5in deep, 15in high, and 14in wide for size reference. 
  • Holds 23 bottles of varying sizes - I did have some larger bottles of spices so if you have smaller bottles, you could easily fit more than I did. I had room left over in my small cabinet that I could fit the largest bottles on the side. (Pictures below) The company states that it fits 24 bottles. The company also offers smaller versions of this rack if your cabinets are smaller than  mine.
  • Labels - The rack comes with labels to put on the bottle lids so that you can see what the spices are if you don't know what the bottle looks like by sight. One sheet has been printed with common spices and a blank sheet so that it can be personalized. I didn't use them but it was definitely a nice touch to include.
  • Very easy to set up/sturdy - This rack has a kick stand on the back of it that just snaps out so that the rack is sturdy. I have tried other spice racks in the past that I was afraid to open the cabinet because I didn't want to see if it had broken or not.
  • Easy to clean - While I was organizing my spices onto the rack, I did have a mishap with a bottle that didn't have a very sturdy lid. All I had to do was take the bottles off that I had already organized (that was more irritating than anything) and run the rack under water in the sink, dry it and we were back in business.
Conclusion: Love it! The price is good, the item is sturdy and actually useful. This rack has gotten me all kinds of fired up about organizing my other cabinets and pantry. I will be spending the next 5 years doing that project, especially with two teenagers in the house!  I would definitely recommend this product if you need cabinet organziation.
