The Mighty Mug Giveaway & Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by Mighty Mug for the review & giveaway free of charge.****

I do a lot on the computer both at home and at work so I usually have my drink sitting on my desk while I work, sometimes it gets knocked over and spills or simply drops onto the floor if it is in a spill proof container. I recently received a Mighty Mug for a review and now I don't have to worry about spills or my cup getting knocked off of my desk. Developed by a team of industrial designers and mechanical engineers, Mighty Mug, is the world's only Mug that grips to your desk when knocked into, but lifts naturally.





Before I received a mug for review I watched a video showing what The Mighty Mug could do, and I admit I was impressed but I was also skeptical about how well this would work. How can a mug set down on the table not be knocked over when hit but picked up like a regular cup without any hesitation? The Mighty Mug has a Smartgrip base which is shown above in the fourth photo (orange circle), when placed directly down onto the table this grips onto the table keeping the cup into place. Keep in mind the surface needs to be flat as with any suction cup base/item, I placed my Mighty Mug on my kitchen table and gave it a whack. The mug stayed in place was it gave me a jolt of excitement not seeing it fall over when hit with my hand, I even made my fiance come into the kitchen to have a look while I used my hand to try and knock over the mud. Knowing that some cups end up falling off the table because the table is moved I shook the kitchen table a bunch to see if that would make the mug fall and it still stayed in place, but lifted up without any issue when you pick it straight up off the table. The Might Mug is easy to clean, and works just as described my fiance will be taking this to work with him to the construction sites he works at.

PRIZE ALERT:
One lucky winner is going to receive a $30 Gift card to The Mighty Mug to pick out a mug of their own, they offer several different colors and sizes. Giveaway ends on Tuesday September 8th, 2015

BoxyCharm Subscription Box Giveaway & Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by BoxyCharm for the review & giveaway free of charge.****

I love subscription boxes because every month it is like opening a Christmas present. I was recently introduced to a sweet little makeup subscription box called BoxyCharm that has already has me quite impressed. I received the August BoxyCharm box and I loved everything that was included in it, generally with subscription boxes there is at least one to two thing that are 'Meh' or that I could do without so I was happy to get a box that had me 100% satisfied.





Before I tell you what was in the August box let me start by telling you that this subscription box costs $21 per month and comes with four to five full sized products. I was excited to see the small black box in my mail box marked 'BoxyCharm" because I couldn't wait to see what was in the box, once I opened the box I was greeted by an adorable post card and a assortment of products. The box came with the following products: Coastal Scents Revealed 3 Palette (Retail $39.95), MicaBeauty Gel Eyeliner (Retail $35), Nios Shield Leave-in Conditioner (Retail $26), So Susan Statement Skin (Retail $20) and a Seta Eyeliner Brush (Retail $16) for a total retail of $136.95 all of that came inside of a subscription box that only cost $21 a month, I think that is a steal!

I personally love the Coastal Scents Revealed 3 Palette it is a great set of shades to do smokey eyes with which is my go to work look, the So Susan statement skin works like a highlighter and it has a very warm sun kissed look to it. The Gel eyeliner goes on smoothly and is long lasting, the brush is a perfect match for it and the Leave-in conditioner is also a sun blocker which I think is wonderful. I am over all very happy with this subscription box and put it at the top of my favorite subscriptions list. August BoxyCharm subscribers can enter for a chance to win an Exclusive BoxyCharm box worth $250 by following the instructions on the card that arrived with your box.

PRIZE ALERT:
Three lucky winners are going to receive an August BoxyCharm Box!

Please note that BoxyCharm currently only ships to the 48 contiguous US states. This does not include Hawaii or Alaska. However BoxyCharm has sent me the boxes to send to the winners so I will allow this to be open internationally.

Zotos Professional 180pro Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by Zotos Professional for the review free of charge.****

I used to dye my hair often and frequently which lead to my hair losing a lot of its natural shine and strength that it had before. Once I stopped dyeing it I started trying to find a good shampoo and conditioner that worked to help soften my hair and I've finally found a product that I am going to keep and toss the rest! I was sent a number of products from the 180pro product series my Zotos Professionals.






The 180pro series offers a number of products including Smooth + Soft Recovery, Intense Reconstruction, Moisture Repair, Treatments and Styling products. I received at least two products from each section of the line which can be viewed above, each section has its own bottle color. The first thing I've tried is the Smooth + Soft Recovery Discovery Kit which is featured in the round packaging above with three small bottles inside, this kit includes 180PRO Smooth + Soft Recovery Shampoo and Conditioner along with a Miracle Repair Damage Eliminator™ Leave-In Treatment.

So far I love the product and my hair does feel softer, I've notice it also helps De-tangle my hair more then the shampoo + conditioner I was using before, my brush glides right through my hair after washing it. All three of the products smell lovely, and they really do seem to replenish your hair you can almost feel your hair absorbing the product into it and letting it repair it. The three bottles included in the discovery kit are a lot smaller than their full sized versions but so far I've already used each five times and there is still plenty of product left in the bottle. I have medium length hair that goes down slightly below my collar bone, if you have longer hair you may use a little more product so it might not last as long however a little bit of the product goes a long ways. On that same note I will include that I haven't been able to test out the rest of the 180pro products since the first set I am using is lasting a little while but I will keep you updated on how the other products work as well so keep your eyes out for the updates! If you dye your hair or simply want softer hair and want to repair the damage from flat irons and curlers I suggest looking into these products which are all very affordable and run for under $10 each. You can purchase these products from Sally Beauty.

World Kitchen Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by World Kitchen for the review free of charge.****

To me cooking not only requires great ingredients but good tools that are dependable and work well. Finding the tools that work best for you can sometimes be a bummer because of the price tag, but World Kitchen has you covered by offering wonderful cooking tools at affordable prices.

 

 I recently received a small package which contained a Silicone Whisk, Medium Spatula and a Silicone spatula to try out. The whisk is pretty handy to have not only because some dishes taste better when whisked vs beaten with a fork, but because when it is time to be washed it can be washed easier then a metal spatula. If you apply a little pressure to the whisk it will smoosh essentially allowing all the food to slide right out and you don't have to worry about getting a sponge in there to get something you missed. Since it bends a bit it also helps you reach more places in your mixing bowl that a traditional whisk may have missed. The Silicone spatula is made from the same materials and it really helps you reach every inch of the bowl or dish you are mixing and pouring into the baking pan. I enjoyed all three products sent to me and look forward to using them more often! All three of these products can be purchased on their website for less than $10 each, the whisk is only $4.99 they also offer a number of other kitchen tools, gadgets and more.

Chewy Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by Chewy for the review free of charge.****

For all of the Star Wars fans out there, I am sorry but no this review doesn't involve Chewbacca however it does include a photo of my fur baby! A website called Chewy sells a number of products for cats and dogs, they sell everything from treats to beds and even pet meds all at great prices.





I was recently sent a bag of Dogswell Vitality Bars for dogs in a Chicken and Veggies flavor, along with a Catit Bench Scratcher with cat nip. As you can imagine my fur babies were excited when I opened the box and they realized what was in it was for them, although my pooch wasn't too happy about having to wait a minute to eat his treat so that I could snap a photo. The dog treats had a decent smell to them, if they were sitting out on a table not in their bag you could mistake them for actual beef jerky, the dogs highly enjoyed these treats and I am sure they would love another bag of them. The Catit Bench Scratcher is lovely because it doubles as a cat bed, the only issue I had with this is that the scratcher has small holes through it because it is made from cardboard. I have no issue with it being made from cardboard because it is meant to be scratched up by your cats, what I had an issue with is that the cat nip fell directly through the scratcher and onto the floor there was nothing to catch the nip and it ended up making a mess on my floor. Otherwise I am very happy with the product and as you can see from above my cat enjoys it as well. The Dogswell treats can be purchased for $12.74 and the Caitit Bench Scratcher can be bought for $7.99 on the Chewy website, head over and see what other meowsome products they have to offer your pets.

13Deals.com Giveaway & Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by 13Deals.com for the review & giveaway free of charge.****

Finding a good deal is always awesome because you are happy you were able to buy something you wanted and your wallet is happy you saved some cash! A website called 13 Deals offers a number of daily and weekly deals on a number of products which change weekly, some products are up to 79% retail price. I was recently able to do a review with 13 Deals and was able to pick out two deals from the site I wanted to test out, I choose the Remote controlled moon with light-up lunar phases and How to Train your Dragon 2 sheep launcher game by pressman.





Their customer service is fast and friendly just like their shipping speeds! The Moon was listed as $19.99 and the Game was listed for $8.99 which were both cheaper than I was able to find anywhere else. Both products are well made, fun to use and would make wonderful Christmas or birthday presents, my kids wanted to play the sheep launcher game as soon as I opened the box and we all had a blast even my two year old was able to play. The moon is also really neat and made me jealous I didn't have one when I was a kid! Looking through the 13Deals.com website I think they have great deals that are hard to beat and combined with the speedy shipping and friendly customer service this is a website I will be visiting for some of my Christmas Shopping. What deals do you see that you enjoy?

Mantry Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by Mantry for the review free of charge.****

My fiance gets just as curious about what is in the packages that arrive to our home as I do, and he does get a little bummed out when I open it and he sees it is just makeup,toys or something that isn't too guy friendly. Let's face it, who doesn't like getting mail especially when the package is a surprise so you can imagine how happy he was when I told him we were getting the July box from Mantry for a review. Women have makeup subscription boxes and more so why can't the guys have some fun subscription boxes too? Mantry is a manly subscription box that shows up at your door monthly, with editorial stories and recipes that any guy can master with the products included in the box.





The package arrived in the evening when I was giving our son a bath, I heard the UPS guy knock and my fiance answered the door and he instantly became excited when he realized what it was. I had to tell him to wait to open it until our son was out of the bath so I could take some photos while he opened it. Each month the Mantry items arrive in a neat wooden crate and everything is packed to perfection so that nothing breaks, I like the crate because it can be reused to store things in the garage, broken down for a bon fire, or it can be used for a number of other things. Inside of the package we found Bittermilk - Bourbon barrel old fashioned, Chef's cut Jerky - Chipotle cracked pepper jerky, Vermont smoke & cure smoked pepperoni, Halfpops chipotle barbecue halfpops, Skillet Street food bacon jam and Southern Soul BBQ Hot Georgia soul sauce. As with any subscription of there is no guarantee you will love every single item that comes in the box, my fiance was very excited about all the items aside from the Bittermilk.





The jerky was the first thing to disappear from the box because my fiance loves almost everything having to do with Chipotle and we are both jerky lovers so he ate this right away. The Smoked pepperoni is also pretty good it has a rich flavor that normal store bought pepperoni doesn't offer, we used this to make a BBQ pepperoni and chicken pizza and we also ate some on crackers. The halfpops were also pretty good they are a cross between popcorn and corn nuts, they were crunchy and offered a mouth full of flavor, I would be interesting in seeing what other flavors they sell. We haven't used the other products as of yet but we plan on using them soon. The two recipes they featured with this box are a Smoked Pepperoni, Mozza & Basil grilled cheese and a Pulled pork with bacon jam and sliced apple sandwich that use products in this specific crate. If you want to try out the recipes yourself they are available on their website. What did we do with the wooden box? Our daughter asked to use it as a pet bed for her stuffed animals so we let her keep in after removing the two large staples that hold the lid onto the crate. The crates are $75 a month plus $10 for shipping and handling, it includes Six full sized artisan food products all handmade in the USA.
