Black Peel Off Mask

Overall this is a good product. I've used it twice, once on myself and once on my husband. It did a good job getting most of the blackheads out. Some it just pulled up far enough to get them with a pair of tweezers, but that was still acceptable. 
At this point, I can't say if it does anything to control oil over any period of time, since we have only used it once. Since it is cleaning out your pores, I'm assuming that over time it will help with the overall condition of your skin though.
One problem worth mentioning is that you do feel it when you peel it off. It does a great job pulling up the blackheads. However, it also catches all the tiny hairs that you don't really see. I know this can't be helped and this isn't any worse than any of the other products on the market that do similiar things.

Training Collar

I recently got a new rescue who is beyond stubborn. A trainer recommended a collar such as this and when I saw that it has various different levels and also had different options for getting the dogs attention, I realized this would be a great purchase. It is considerably less expensive than the one the trainer was trying to sell me, but works just the same.  Perhaps it works even better because I have it on the absolute lowest vibrate only setting and it works wonderful. Nothing more is needed and I have plenty of additional room to increase things if that should change or if I end up with another dog that would also benefit from this collar but is even more stubborn than the current one I have. Considering that I keep saying no more pets and then ending up with yet another, it is very likely that I will be adding to the family. Either way - the collar is great for my current dog and I'm sure it will be great for any future dog that may also need it.

Clear Containers

Given everything I end up carrying on a daily basis everytime I leave the house, it is super important that I be able to organize the items in my bag. These two boxes have been a tremendous help in this, since they keep the smaller items together and I am able to see through them so that I can see what is in them without digging everything out and having to open and search through everything.

Week Planner

As a stay at home mom, the only timed events I have to keep track of are the ones that involve doctor appointments. A weekly planner is more than enough for me to do this, since it still leaves plenty of room for additional information and jotted down notes. It covers the month and the individual days of the week but only a portion of each page is devoted to days, not a day per page which would be too much wasted space for me. It also has some really great additional features, such as reviews, goals, and a lot of area for brainstorming. I'm very happy with it and am eager to get it set up and start using it come the New Year.

Horrible Pens

These pens are definitely not worth the money. Even if free, you would still have to pay me to take them. I use a lot of different pens in a lot of different styles and these are some of the very few that I cannot use at all. The ball and ink consistency do not work well together at all. There is a clear line of no ink down the center of each stroke. I was also horrified that I spent this amount of money on two cheapo pens. I should have read the description better but I thought I was getting a larger collction of pens, not just two random ones. It also lead you to believe that you would receive pastel and glitter. I only got two pastel pens and not one of each as the advertisement would have you believe.

DIY Business Cards

The set is great and almost exactly what I was looking for. The craft paper that is brown is absolutely perfect. The white ones are okay. I didn't realize that one side had a coating and the other didn't. I would have much preferred that both sides be uncoated for what I plan to use them for. I actually have a large number of things that I plan to use them for, business cards being one of them. Since I'm in the design/creative business, I wanted to give the extra attention to my business cards and go the extra mile by doing some by hand. I'm hoping that the white ones work for this since I wanted some of each. 
I also have various other craft projects planned for these. Everything from gift tags to other present components. So far, it seems that they will work well for these uses too. I just really wish that there wasn't any type of coating on the white ones. Otherwise they would be absolutely perfect for all my intended uses.

Slim PS4 Vertical Stand

I knew I needed to get a stand for my PS4. I briefly looked at this one and went ahead and purchased it becuase otherwise I would have agonized over which one to get. I didn't even catch all the extras that come with it. I love the surprise of finding out that it comes with the covers for the joysticks. It was also wonderful to see that you place one coverter into the charging port of your two primary controllers and then the charging is done just by setting them into the holder. No more worrying about the in and out of the port and damage to it or the charger. 
If you have additional controllers, you can still charge them with this one using the multiple USB ports on the front. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm guessing that I could possibly charge my phone using those as well. 
Lastly, the holder itself. It holds the PS4 very securely and had no room to wooble. There is zero fear of it falling out, which is awesome since I have dogs that like to run around like crazy boys and shake things either by running so fast or by bumping into things.

Ingrown Hair Exfoliating Kit

I love this set! I'll probably end up buying another for my husband just because this isn't something I really want to share with him. The silicone scrubbers are amazing for making your face feel super clean. They are also great on sensative areas where ingrown hairs are frequent. I love that you are able to use them at the first sign of an ingrown hair and they quickly take care of removing the dead skin and releasing the hair. Then, since the tweezers are so incredibly thin, you are able to grab the hair and remove it before it becomes a major problem.

Skull Masks (2 masks)

These masks are amazing. I typically have issues with things covering my nose and mouth but with these masks I don't have that problem. They are thick enough to keep out the bite of the cold and also the various little dirt particles. At the same time, they are thin enough that breathing is completely unrestricted. They also aren't super tight so while they are tight enough to stay in place, they aren't constricting or end up being painful.

Yoga Socks (3 pack)

I wasn't sure about buying these. I knew I needed socks that had the grips on the bottom since there is no carpet in my house. But, I really wasn't sure about the toe part, which each toe having its own "slot". There is a lot of talk about how amazing it is and good for your feet to be able to keep your toes seperated some times to help alleviate pressure and things like that. I figured I would give them a try and I'm so glad I did. My feet feel so much better after wearing them for only about 20 minutes. I had no idea that seperating my toes would make my feet feel so much better.

Compression Socks (3 pack)

I'm alwasy hesitant to buy clothing of any type online. So far I have been very lucky with the socks though, especially the compression ones. For someone who works on their feet for the entire shift, these socks are a lifesafer (leg/foot saver). After starting to wear these during work, sore and tired feet and legs are no longer an issue. They even seem to help with knee issues and back issues that were starting to become more and more problematic.

Sketch Pad Set

Since I have started working on various lettering techniques, I have found that sketch supplies work really well while I'm trying to figure out the technique for each letter or style. This set is wonderful and included not only everything I knew I needed but also some things I didn't. It was awesome to be able to work with other supplies that I didn't know about but that made using the whole kit and completing my project much easier than I expected.

Watercolor Set

I had never used watercolors before so I wasn't really sure what I was getting into. This set was wonderful though. It included everything I needed (except the water, of course) and worked very well. I also let my son use it and he had no problems either. The paper is thick enough that even if you end up with it too watery, it doesn't drench the paper making it unusable. I actually found the paper to be perfect no matter how much water I used, which was great for a beginner that really didn't know what she was doing.

Acrylic Paint Set

This set is perfect for beginners and those a little more advanced. The set is complete in that it has the paper, paint, and brushes that you need. Everything is included to be able to get started on your first project as soon as you open the package. The paint is in individual tubes that are easy to keep clean also. The colors are very nice and true to what they appear on the tube. You always know which color you are getting and just how it will look on the paper. No more worrying about using a color that you think is one shade only for it to be another!

6pc. pen set

These pens are absolutely adorable. They have a smooth finish and are the perfect diameter to be able to write for long periods of time. Any they are definitely pretty. The only thing that confuses me is that the number of refills is less than the number of pens. I'm not sure if that is how they were intended or if it was an oversight. Either way, I'm still happy with these pens.

Holographic Makeup Bag

I really like this case. The color is great and I absolutely love the gun on the front. It has a snap closure, which I love because I seriously hate velcro. The inside is great since it has two different types of holders. There is the slide in for brushes with the flap to cover the actual brush part. Then the smaller items fit perfectly in the zipper closure pouch on the side. My only issue is that I'm not a huge fan of the balls inside the cover. In all honesty, I'll probably open it up and take them out and then reclose it. They just don't seem to work well for me. I get that they are representative of the bullets but on a small level they are cute.  However, functionally, they kinda annoy me and I would much prefer they not be there.

Small Drawstring Burlap Bags

I recently began a consultant for Tula XII and also for Thirty-One. This set of 18 bags is perfect for me to use with the various games I have planned for parties in both of these endeavors. They are the perfect size to put a small gift or surprise in for the winners. Also, since they are reusable, I won't have to keep restocking them as time goes on. So far they have worked wonderfully with the various prizes I have tried out in them. And, since there are 2 sets of 9, it is perfect for keeping the two separate. All the drawstrings are white, making them perfect for me to be able to add color to in order to color code them for use with each company. It is an absolutely perfect product that will get plenty of use as my business increases.

Tablet Stands

My son and I do a lot of traveling and prefer to take our tablets over having to lug our entirel laptop with us. While spending time in the hotel, we typically watch videos on our tablets instead of on the tv since we rarely watch the same thing. This two pack is perfect for us. We have 2 different tablets that are different sizes but that doesn't matter because these stands work with both of them. It is great that you can create the perfect angle by making the needed adjustments to the stand. As an added bonus, they fold down flat when not in use so they take up virtually no space when we are packing up stuff for the trips.

Pencil Grips

I have noticed that since I have been doing more and more writing, my fingers have been cramping and I'm starting to develop blisters on some of my fingers. I ordered these in hopes of them protecting my fingers and so far, they have been amazing. I have a few pens that the hole is too small but with a little widening of the grib, I'm still able to use them. And the various designs that come in this pack are amazing. They all serve the same purpose but some of them feel better on different writing utencils.  My son loves some of them too, especially since he has the same problem with his fingers and I do but still insists on using wooden pencils.

Foot Mask 2

I can't even tell you how much I love foot masks that actually work. As much as I love going to get professional pedicures, I often don't have the time to do so. When I do have the time, it is often when the salons are already closed or when they are packed. These food masks work wonders for me. I have amazing results with every one of these I have tried and this brand is no different. It typically works in less time than it tells you and my dead skin is easily removed leaving my feet super soft.

Foot Mask

I never seem to have time to go get a pedicure, no matter how badly I need one. With these, I can get rid of the old and rough skin without having to go to the salon and have them do it. Everything can be done in the comfort of my own home and at whatever time works with my schedule. No need to check what the hours of operation are since you are doing it yourself. It also makes it nice that you don't technically do anything other than wear and peel. A could days after wearing them, all the dead skin starting coming off. Betweeen peeling off what I could and using a gentle loofah for the rest, my feet feel absolutely amazing. It says to expect results in 1-2 weeks but mine took considerably less time then that, more along the lines of 2-3 days.

Reusable Water Bottle

I love this water bottle. I am constantly traveling and always have to have something with me to drink. Usually I also need something that I can close, because I tend to have spills more than the average person. This bottle has been great. It even has a clip on it so that I don't have to worry about where or how I'm going to carry it. I can just clip it on to either a belt loop or a loop on a bag I'm carrying.
It also comes with a cleaning set that makes washing it a breeze. The there is a sponge cleaner for the actual bottle and then a smaller brush to be able to clean the inside of the straw.

Pooper Scooper

I love my dogs dearly. I do not, however, love having to pick up after they have used the rest room. But, at the same time, I'm not just going to leave it in the yard either. This scooper has been amazing. I love that it holds the bags for you so you don't have to carry multiple things while walking. It is also great that there is a way to use the bags on the scooper so that the scooper remains clean. I think that is probably the absolute best feature.
It also comes with many bags, which is nice because you have time to find the exact size that works best in the holder. I know they claim to be all the same size but I have managed to find ones that don't work in my travel one so I know that isn't actually the case.
The brush that you get as a bonus is nice as well. I'm a huge fan of the ones that make cleaning the hair off easy and this one definitely does. With just the push of the button, all the hair is pushed to the end of the bristles and you are easily able to get it all off.

I am constantly losing my tweezers and the ones I haven't lost, I've lost to my son and husband for the models that they build. This set is too nice for me to allow them anywhere out of my purse unless I am personally using them. They come in a very nice looking and durable case that snaps closed and the individual tweezers have the protective plastic rings and covers to keep them in good shape. The tweezers also have an great grip and allow you to get even the thinnest and most stubborn hairs.

These bags have allowed me to continue doing that but to also maintain my color coding scheme while not at home.

Hanging Shower Caddy

I am always looking for various ways to reorganize certain areas because I'm not happy with the way they are right now. These have solved this problem for both my bathrooms. Now, I don't have to worry about all the bottles and razor being whereever and falling on the floore while in the shower. This holders have different sized pockets and just about everything in my shower fits in them. There is no sign that there is too much weight, which is great. I love that I no longer have to worry about stepping on a razor while washing my hair. They even come with their own holders so you can either use those or use the same ones that you are currently using with your shower curtain.

Weighted Blanket

I have been on the hunt for a weighted blanket for a couple years now. Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck (until now) because of not being able to find the weight I needed, in a color that I liked, in a fabric that I liked. I finally order this one as a last ditch effort figuring that if it was that bad, I could get different fabric to cover it. It wouldn't be pretty but I was determined to make it work.
I was relieved when it arrived and none of that was necessary. The material is soft and smooth so there are no texture issues with it for me. It is also a very nice, heavy weight. Everyone always suggests a lighter weight but I knew that my anxiety was going to be better handled by a heavier one. This blanket has saved me from countless panic attacks and minimized even more. It has been a true lifesaver and I refuse to travel (which I do entirely too much) without it.
I love that I can also wash the cover. Unfortunately, I have to let the cover air dry so I will most likely be looking for a second cover to switch between. Other than that - I have absolutely no complaints.

Tabbed Stickies

I use sticky notes for just about everything. They are probably one of my favorite office supplies next to pens. I love these even more because the larger ones have tabs and also lines. This makes it wonderful for being able to write a larger amount of notes. The smaller ones are unlined and are great for quicker/smaller notes. The tabs are amazing too because they are stronger than you would think. They come in a cute and durable folder that also serves to protect the sticky notes while not in use. Since I need to be able to have them with me at all times, this is great that they have their own protective cover so that none of them get damaged or otherwise go to waste.
