Kikkerland Review & Giveaway

Kikkerland Design Inc. is a place where creativity runs rampant and even the most utilitarian gadget becomes a delightful discovery. 


Since 1992, the folks at Kikkerland Design have traveled the world in search of original designs for things that can make life more enjoyable. Clever things to intrigue you. Smart things that make everyday tasks easier. And gentle things that make you feel happier when you use them.

It’s no wonder that Kikkerland Design continues to offer the world’s largest collection of ingenious items combining form, function, and delight in equal parts. You can find them in thousands of stores around the world, including museum and specialty shops. Or you can just stay home. Because if it’s inventive, witty, and smartly designed, Kikkerland Design will bring it to you. Just for the fun of it.


There is so much stuff at Kikkerland, you could be there all day looking and wanting everything! With everything from home and organization and clocks, to the critter collection and solar powered items, there really is something for everyone!


For my review I received 2 large and 2 medium Bobino Cord Wraps. 

My husband is a guy who like to fiddle with things. He loves working on engines and (like most guys) he also loved electronics. He HAS to have a million things hooked up in every room, including surround sound in the living room. 


With all the electronics and gadgets everywhere, wire can become a real problem! Nobody likes a huge rats nest of wires shoved in a corner, or behind the tv! With the cord wraps, that is taken care of! 


The medium cord wrap is for cell phone chargers and USB wires. I used them in my kitchen for my house phone and my charging dock for my blackberry. It looks so much better now!

The large cord wrap is for laptops and thin extension cords. I used them in my bedroom for my husbands lamp and alarm clock. Those wires always bothered me, and now they are nice and neat!

The cord wraps are super easy to use! You just feed it through the notch and then wind it up! Done! Easy organization that makes a HUGE difference! Doesn't get much better than that!

Kerasal Review & Giveaway

Tweet

Share

Everyone knows the summer is flip flop season! I, for one, am either always wearing flip flops, or I'm bare foot! Having nice looking feet is important! You don't want to be walking around with dry, nasty looking feet! Between the sun and the sand, the moisture gets sucked right out of your feet. Kerasal can help with that!

I was so excited to get the opportunity to try Kerasal's One Step Exfoliating Moisturizer Therapy! As soon as I received it, I went right for it. My feet were already in dire need for some love!

Once I opened it and put a little on my fingers, I noticed that it wasn't like a lotion at, and more like an ointment. That was a good sign to me. Lotion doesn't seem to do the trick, but this looked promising. Along with the Exfoliating Moisturizer I also received a pair of cotton socks to hold the moisture on and let it sink in. So, I put it on, threw on the socks and went a long with my business.

A few hours later I took off the socks to see the results. Wow! After only one use I could already see and feel the difference! My feet were a lot smoother! I have continued to use it if not every day, at least every other day. My feet feel and look wonderful! All thanks to this wonderful product!

About the product:
The nation’s #1 selling ointment for softening feet and controlling calluses build up, Kerasal's Moisturizing Foot Ointment is guaranteed to repair and soften even the toughest, dry feet, cracked heels and calluses when used as directed. Kerasal's Exfoliating Moisturizing Foot Ointment for cracked heels is a highly effective, dual action formula that both exfoliates and moisturizes in one step and is guaranteed to soften even the most severely damaged, dry feet.


Results can usually be seen in as little as 3-7 days. I saw mine immediately! This product is also approved by the American Podiatric Medical Association. There is a HUGE list of place to buy it and can be found in America and Canada. See the website for a list of locations and websites. 


                                                                            WIN IT                                                                                        
One (1) lucky reader will win the One Step Exfoliating Moisturizer Therapy, and a pair of socks!

USANA Review & Giveaway

Tweet

Share

I was so happy when I learned I was going to be reviewing for USANA! USANA Health Sciences is one of America’s leading companies in the field of health and nutrition. USANA helps improve the lives of thousands of people around the world in two ways:

1. Superior product lines that customers can always trust
2. Innovative network marketing program that offers a fair and balanced compensation plan for both the average and ambitious USANA Associate

They have a HUGE variety of product to choose from!

Nutritionals- High-quality vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants your body needs for good health.

Diet & Energy- Great-tasting drinks, meal-replacements, and snacks to help you lose weight and maintain energy.

Personal Care- A luxurious line of self-preserving products to cleanse, refine, and replenish your skin and hair.

For my review, I decided on the  Sensé™ Prelude 5 Kit. It  is a 5-day introductory sample to the Sensé Basics 3-step program for healthier skin and includes a bonus sample of Perfecting Essence. 

Kit Includes:

• Gentle Daily Cleanser
• Hydrating Toner
• Daytime Protective Emulsion
• Night Renewal Crème
• Perfecting Essence **Bonus Sample**

Step 1 Cleanse: Gentle Daily Cleanser

Washes away surface dirt and impurities without drying your skin.

Step 2 Tone: Hydrating Toner

Removes lingering impurities, balances your skin's pH levels, and helps soothe the effects of environmental exposure.

Step 3 Replenish: Daytime Protective Emulsion (am)

                                   Night Renewal (pm)

Replenishes your skin's moisture levels and diminishes the appearance of aging.

Enhance: Perfecting Essence

Beautifully brightens and retexturizes the skin's appearance, leaving it visibly radiant and smooth. Safe for sensitive skin. 

My thoughts:

I have really enjoyed using the kit! My face always feels so wonderful! It has made it brighter and younger feeling! Almost makes me feel like a teenager again. The whole kit is very mild and did not bother my face at all. I have sensitive skin, so it was nice to put something on that didn't burn, or dry out my skin. Step 3 really helped with that. I also loved using the toner! Even though I had just washed my face in step 1, using the toner on a cotton ball in step 2, I could SEE the dirt coming off onto the cotton ball! Talk about a deep clean! The last thing that I really enjoyed was the smell! It's not too overwhelming, yet really clean smelling. Almost like a citrus soap. The citrus smell is very faint. I love it! Overall, great product! I'm looking forward to trying other product from USANA now!

Sundog Co. Review & Giveaway

Tweet

When you send gift, don't you love sending unique gifts? I know I do. I love seeing the look on the receivers face of surprise and joy! Sundog Co. has a huge selection of unique gifts to make this happen!

They have gifts for every occasion, for him, for her, for home, office, kids, you name it!

For my review, I received the Hound Dog Planter! I absolutely love it! It's sitting right in front of my fireplace. Everyone who walks in notices it right away. They tell me how cute it is, and ask me where I got it from.

It was hard to tell from the picture on the website how big it was. Of course the dimensions are on the website, but leave it to me to overlook that! Sp, when it was delivered, and I opened it up, I was pleasantly surprised! I was thinking it was going to be really small. But, it was a good medium size.

In front of the fire place was the first place to pop into my mind, and it has been there ever since. Even I have to admit, that I look at it everyday and smile! The hound dog is just so cute!

About the planter:

Hound Dog Plant Holder

Comes with 4 1/2" Terra Cotta Pot

Please note due to the item being made of scrap metal it will rust to a beautiful natural finish

Created by Yard Birds

Made from Recycled Scrap Metal

12" tall by 14" long by 7" wide

A charming companion for your flowers, this sweet puppy is ready to hold your favorite plant. Whether you choose to tuck him in the flower garden or put him on your front step he is sure to delight all who see him. 

The metal it's made out of is wonderful! It's thick and sturdy! It's also great that it's recycled! Can't beat that!

I am very impressed with Sundog Co.! I believe I will be doing some of my Christmas shopping there! I want to spread that happiness that I get every time I look at my planter!

StaphAseptic Review & Giveaway

Tweet

Share

As some of you may know, when you have little ones, scraped knees, bumps, and cuts are an everyday occurrence! Maybe you don't have any little ones. Maybe you are just a little clumsy yourself. Or, maybe you have a gear-head husband like myself who is always hurting himself.

Whatever it is, StaphAseptic can help!  It is a first aid/pain relieving gel for minor cuts, scrapes, and burns. It helps prevent skin infections from bacteria such as MRSA, staph, strep, and other germs. As a mom and a wife, this is a great thing to me. Last thing I want to do is take a trip to the ER because of an infection that could have been prevented!

It is essential to treat even minor cuts and scrapes with an effective first aid product like StaphAseptic. Additional meansures one can take to prevent bacterial infections include:

• Treating and covering wounds
• Exclusively using personal items like towels, soap, and razors and not sharing 
• Showering after physical activity
• Properly cleaning personal items including gear and equipment after athletic or other extra-curricular activity
• Keeping hands clean

It is also important to consult a physician for active wounds that are red, swollen, painful or have pus (yuck!) or other drainage.

I have started carrying StaphAseptic around in my purse! That way, no matter where I'm at, if a cut or scrape happens along, I will be there like super woman to save the day! Prevention is always a great thing! I am very happy with the product and would recommend you go get some and take the first step to preventing an infection in your house!

One more thing, there is a printable coupon on the website for $1.00 off StaphAseptic to help you get started!
