5 Stars: Ibeauti 3pcs Folding Eyelash Comb, Professional Cosmetics Eyebrow & Eyelash Comb Metal Teeth, Lash and Brow Makeup Brush Beauty Care

Image
I was in need of an new eyebrow brush and I was tired of the teeth breaking off in my makeup bag.  These combs, by Ibeauti, fold into the handle, so teeth breakage in my bag is no longer a problem.   I found them on Amazon for $10.95 for the set of 3.  The body is made of strong plastic and the teeth are made of metal.  Since they are metal, they won't break easily, but if you brush too vigorously, they will scratch your face.  Speaking from experience here.   Folded, they measure about 2.5 inches long.  Unfolded, they are about 4.5 inches long.   Since this is a package of 3, I can leave one in my makeup bag and 1 in my each of my bathrooms.  I love them! I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

5 Stars: Vremi 3 Piece Baking Sheets Nonstick Set - Professional Non Stick Sheet Pan Set for Baking - Carbon Steel Baking Pans Cookie Sheets with Red Silicone Handles - has Quarter and Half Sheet Pans

Image
I was in desperate need of new baking sheets and I love this set from Vremi.  It's going for $27.99 on Amazon right now.  This set includes 3 sizes.   The smallest is about 10 inches long, the middle one is about 12 inches, and the biggest is about 14 inches.   Each pan has silicone handles.  If you aren't accident prone, the silicone handles are cool enough to the touch to use them to pull the sheets out of the oven by.  Each handle is only about 3 inches long.  I am accident prone, so I still used pot holders when pulling them out of the oven.   The nonstick surface worked well and I haven't had any issues with foods sticking to them.  I've used them to bake cookies and for cooking chicken strips on.  One thing to note, since these are non stick, it is advised to not use metal utensils on these pans as that can lead to scratching the surface.  I have rubber coated spatulas so this wasn't an issue for me.  These are made of high-quality thick me

5 Stars: True Koala 71x32-Inch Warm Mermaid Tail Blanket Handmade with Canvas Carrying/Storage Bag, Dark Blue

Image
If you love mermaids, have ever wanted to be a mermaid or just like really soft blankets for laying around this mermaid tail blanket is for you.  $10.99 on Amazon is a cheap price for something so awesome! The blanket is about 6 feet long. This means that you can cover your whole body comfortable.  The tail is dark blue with white interwoven in.  It is super soft and warm.  I live in Texas and it's in the 80's to 90's outside, but I can still use this blanket comfortable.   The blanket is open for the top 4 feet, joined together for about 1 foot and then the fin section is about a foot long.  The fin is ribbed so it really stands out for the rest of the tail.  I don't usually like using afghan-style blankets because I tend to stick my toes in the holes.  That is not the case with this blanket.  I have had no issues with sticking my toes into the holes in the fabric.   The blanket also comes with a canvas drawstring bag for easy storage or transp

5 Stars: EverDigi Bluetooth Headphones with Noise Cancelling and Steoreo Sound

Image
I have always had a hard time getting ear buds to stay in my ears.  I normally buy the ones that go over the back but these headphones by EverDigi fit nicely into the ear without going around the back.  They are going for $17.99 on Amazon which is on par with other headphones like them.   The headphones connected quickly and easily to my phone.   The noise canceling was amazing.  I was cooking dinner and my husband walked up behind me and I couldn't hear him talking.  I don't play my music very loud because I'm always concerned with hearing loss.  My husband uses them when he mows the lawn and he said they work beautifully.  Saying this, these probably shouldn't be worn in situations where hearing could save your life like crossing a busy street.   The charging cable is only about 6 inches long, but it uses a micro-usb, which is the same as my phone so I have plenty that are longer.  They fit comfortably in my ear and was able to wear them through an enti

4 Stars: Vremi Collapsible Plastic Laundry Basket - Large Folding Pop Up Laundry Basket Space Saving Storage Container Organizer for Kids Toys or College Dorm Rooms - Decorative Laundry Hamper - Red and White

Image
This laundry basket by Vremi is great for a laundry room with very little storage.  I rated it at 4 stars instead of 5 because at $31.99 on Amazon , it's a little pricey. The white parts are made of hard plastic and the red parts are flexible silicone.  I was pleasantly surprised at how sturdy the silicone is when it is fully extended.  I was expecting it to not be able to hold itself up, but it handles like a fully-plastic basket.   The best part about this basket is it can be collapsed down to about 3 inches tall.  It slides very easily between my washer and dryer for storage between uses.   This would be perfect for a college student or someone who does not have a lot of storage space in their house.  I think I have found a new go-to gift for college graduates and newlyweds.  I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

5 Stars: HUIRUI Professional Stainless Steel Nail Clippers for Men and Women, Box Package Include Fingernail and Toenail Clipper Set

Image
I was in desperate need of some new clippers.  I like this set because it includes toenail, nail and cuticle clippers in one package and all for only $11 on Amazon .   They come in a metal box which makes for great storage for the clippers.   They are all made of stainless steel and you can feel the quality.  They have a nice weight to them.  The clippers are very sharp and make quick work of trimming my nails.   This is the first set of toenail clippers that I have been fully satisfied with.  Others I would have to clip several times for them to actually cut through my nail or they would just end up tearing them.  With these, they cut clean through on the first try.  I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

5 Stars: Toplus Baby Safety Magnetic Cabinet Locks - No Tools Or Screws Needed (6 Locks + 2 Keys)

Image
My dogs have learned how to open cabinets so I was looking for an easy to use cabinet lock system. I found this magnet system on Amazon by Toplus for $12.99.  These cabinet locks stick on with 3M tape so there is no need to damage cabinets with screws.   They way these work is one piece goes inside the cabinet with a hook that keeps the cabinet closed.  You place the "key" (a round knob looking piece) on the outside of the cabinet over the hook and the hook releases.   Since the key is magnetic, we keep it on the fridge so we don't have to worry about losing it.  Since these stick on with 3M tape, they are easily removed, too.  The plastic feels really sturdy and like it will last a while.  The package also comes with extra 3M tape should you need it.  There is also a "switch" to keep the cabinet unlocked if you desire.
