Deiva Scented Sachet Review | A new take on potpourri

September 30, 2024 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I remember my mom having potpourri in a chest at the end of her bed when I was growing up and from time to time she’d give me some to put into my dresser, so, when I received two Deiva Scented Sachets in Bangla Mala and Bloom On Equator I was excited to try them.

Deiva Scented Sachets

At first, I tried putting one in my small walk-in closet but I didn’t notice any fragrance, sadly, but the light scent is very pleasant to me when used in dresser drawers. I love that the products are made with traditional old-world Southeast Asia fragrance rituals, and they are hand-crafted and safe around pets and children. The presentation is beautiful, and they’d make a lovely addition to a hostess gift.

Do you use a product like this?

Skwad Skincare Review | Skincare For Teens

September 23, 2024 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

Hailey, our thirteen-year-old, is very interested interested in skincare. I knew she’d be the perfect person to help me review the Skwad Skincare for Teens. We both used four products for over a month and today I am going to share my thoughts.

Skwad Skincare Review Skincare For Teens

I received the Starter Skincare Set with a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and a shaving cream/mask combo product. I love the ease of this set, and I think it’s the perfect starting point for pre-teens and teens who are just learning about skincare.

SKWEEZ Gentle Exfoliating Face Wash 100ml

Containing a bio-friendly exfoliant, this face wash cleanser is gentle and effective while also visibly brightening and softening skin.  The skin barrier is protected for it to stay moisturized.

SKWIRT Hydrating and Exfoliating Facial and Body Toning Spray 100 ml

A hydrating, exfoliating toning spray that helps clarify and refresh the appearance of skin. This innovative sap can be used as a toner or on its own. Mom may use this on the quiet because our ingredient combination can also help reduce fine lines and even skin tone. This is my FAVORITE of the four products.

SKWISH Hydrating Moisturiser 100 ml

An easy-to-use, fast-to-absorb, protective, and hydrating moisturizer packed with non-greasy nutritious oils for teen skin, combined with heavyweight antioxidants that feel as light as a soufflé.  Gentle yet effective ingredients protect the skin, increase its barrier function, and improve hydration.

SKRAPE Nourishing Face Mask & Shaving Cream 100 ml

A revolutionary dual-function mask packed full of vitamin-rich ingredients.  It can be used as a shaving cream or a face mask.  Whichever way it is used, it hydrates and protects the skin.

SKWAD Toiletry Bag For Teenage Girls and Boys

The toiletry bag is made from recycled grey RPET canvas (one of the most sustainable, recyclable, and circular materials) and a recycled white waterproof polyester lining with an inside pocket.

What skincare does your teen love?

Bamboozle Nesting Bowls Set For Mixing and Serving | 7 Piece Set

September 9, 2024 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

We have entered the “ber” months, and that means lots of cooking, baking, hosting, and snacking, and I found the perfect gift for yourself or for a lucky someone in your life. I’ve been looking for affordable, high-quality, attractive nesting bowls for the kitchen after my final one from our 2010 wedding broke, and I found a bamboo set called Bamboozle that is perfect.

Bamboozle Nesting Bowls

I love these bamboo nesting bowls. I have had plastic nesting bowls that have ended up scratching and cracking, and I love that these bowls are esthetic, lightweight, and work for so many things. These Bamboozle bowls are my go-to now for baking, cooking, serving, and snacking. The size variety is fantastic, and I can toss them in the dishwasher easily. We have used them to serve pasta salad, salsa, and of course, popcorn.

  • NESTING BOWLS: Our 7-piece nested serving bowls combine the best design, quality, and craftsmanship with environmental sustainability
  • QUALITY CRAFTMANSHIP: Made of biodegradable, dishwasher-safe, food-safe, durable bamboo fiber. Do not microwave
  • BOWL SIZES: The bowls range from 4 quarts in size to .25 quarts
  • A SIZE FOR EVERY NEED: Perfect sizing for baking, mixing, cooking, serving salads, or pouring snacks for a party — Or just yourself!
  • SUSTAINABILITY: Biodegradable mixing bowl material breaks down cleanly, returning to the earth, leaving very little environmental impact

Do you have favorite kitchen items that your family uses for everything?

Fritaire Self-Cleansing Glass Bowl Air Fryer

September 1, 2024 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday! And Happy Labor Day if you’re in the U.S.

We use our air fryer all.the.time and before we got the Fritaire Self-Cleansing Air Fryer I thought all air fryers were created equal but now I will tell anyone and everyone to re-home their other air fryers and scoop up this one. And it’s September, so scoop this up now for a great holiday gift.

Fritaire Self-Cleansing Air Fryer

The Fritaaire Air Fryer is easy to use and the most stunning BPA-free and self-cleaning Air fryer. With a 5qt glass bowl design, I love that you can see the cooking process. I didn’t realize how helpful it was until I realized I could adjust the time without opening the fryer and that way the cooking process is not interrupted. Plus, it looks cool.

The tempered glass bowl design allows for 360-degree heat circulation and provides exact temperature control and convection vortex airflow for even heat distribution. Along with 6-in-1 cooking settings, Fritaire includes a rotisserie attachment for roasting whole foods and a rotating fry basket to achieve the crispiest fries ever! I also love using the fry basket for other fried sides and tater tots.

I do not use self-cleansing all the time because sometimes I just wipe the bowl out and wash the tray by hand because it takes almost no time. But to use the self-cleaning when you’ve got more stuck on, you simply fill the bowl with water, add some dish soap, and turn it on. The hot air-stream circulator does the rest, creating the first-ever self-cleaning air fryer. Then you just rinse, dry, and fry! Fritaire makes cooking and cleaning so fun and simple.

  • 360 VIEWING DESIGN: No more wondering or interrupting the cooking process to check if your food is finished cooking. Unique 5-QT glass bowl lets you see when your food is perfectly cooked.
  • EASY SELF-CLEANING: Cleanup is a breeze with Fritaire. You just fill the glass bowl with soapy water and let the hot air stream circulator rinse it out from the inside.
  • POWERFUL CONVECTION: 1500W of power. 400F Halogen heater engineered with vortex convection for consistently crispy and even cooking.
  • CHEMICAL-FREE MATERIALS: Experience the healthiest way to air fry. Fritaire is Teflon free, plastic free phthalate free, and BPA free.
  • 6-IN-1 COOKING FUNCTIONS: With Fritaire, you can cook the perfect steak, chicken, seafood, french fries, bake, toast, or use as a dehydrator.
  • ROTISSERIE COOKING: The signature rotisserie motor and turner cooks lets you easily roast whole chicken, veggies, and kabobs.
  • FRENCH FRY TUMBLER: Use the tumbler to make perfectly crispy fries by letting hot air flow on all sides throughout the cooking process.

KIMTRUE Skin Purifying Cleansing Balm

August 26, 2024 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I have been using the Garnier SkinActive Micellar Water for years, but my teenager loves cleansing balm so when KimTrue offered to send me their KimTrue Skin Purifying Cleansing Balm to try, I was excited.

KimTrue Skin Purifying Cleansing Balm

I love the texture of the cleansing balm and the way it breaks down the makeup. I do not find that it irritates my combo skin. I found that it was very good at removing even my waterproof mascara. I did not notice if this product provides brightening properties, but I do feel that the deep cleaning power alone is worth it. Get that grim out, gals!

Have you tried a cleansing balm?

What’s Next? A Life Size Game and What’s Next a Life Size Transition Game

August 12, 2024 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday! Happy Birthday to my husband, too!

I was offered the chance to review the game What’s Next? A Life Size Game and What’s Next a Life Size Transition Game and while it is different than my usual content, I was excited to share it because I am a parent and I thought you might enjoy this post, too.

M & J Games a Life-Size Game and M & J Games a Life-Size Transition Game

This game has soft foam pieces, a giant die which our whole household got a kick out of, and a simple way to set it up that we used both indoors and outdoors. We also tried the version with transition pieces you can add, which is meant for people on the spectrum.

I enjoyed this game so much that I plan to gift one to the resource room teacher who works with one of our children. I love that it doesn’t take too long to play, and is simple for the whole family to catch on and modify to their needs.

This is a fun family game and definitely different and a way to get outside!

Have a great weekend : )

Palm Royale Style

July 29, 2024 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I’ve been loving the Palm Royale style, which to me is bright prints, fabulous sunglasses, silk scarves, chunky heels…essentially 60’s Florida. This style has been brought to the forefront and made a resurgence because of the Apple TV show Palm Royale. Today I am going to share with you a few of my favorite Palm Royale styles.

Silk Scarf

Platform Heels (mine are this but the version from two years ago)

Shift Dress (mine is a decade old and a hand-me-down but similar colors!)

Sunglasses

Cutest Straw Bag

What do you think of this style? Let me know!

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I attended the Niall Horan concert The Show Live On Tour last week and I am going to share with you what to wear to a Niall Horan concert.

When I googled “What To Wear To a Niall Horan Concert” and “Niall Horan Concert Ideas” and looked on TikTok I found a lot of cute ideas and a video of Niall saying “Wear whatever you like, come as you are” which is so sweet and kind. I saw a lot of denim on denim, oversized tees, crochet, daisy patterns, or cute tanks with cut-off shorts. And LOTS of white sneakers.
