Lemon Essential Oil By Simply Earth



My Rating: «««««

This oil is made from the peel of the fruit and has a sweet lemony aroma. I cannot get enough of this essential oil it smells just like lemons!!! Not only does it smell good but it has great properties: anti-depressant, antiseptic, anti-fungal, antioxidant, antiviral, astringent, invigorating, refreshing, and tonic. It is so versatile making it a great oil to keep around the house. Here are some ways I have used it:

  • Cuticle oil: 2 tbsp. olive oil, 1 tbsp. coconut oil, vitamin E oil, crushed up biotin, and 10-20 drops of lemon essential oil (I like the scent to be very strong). *shake bottle before using*
  • Add 1 drop onto a toothbrush and swish around in water then rinse leaves it clean and sanitized 
  • Diffuse: lemon cleans the air, improves your mood, and invigorates 
  • All-purpose cleaner: Combine 5 oz. each of white vinegar and water, slowly add in 1 tsp of baking soda, and 20 drops of Lemon EO then pour into a spray bottle

I tend to mess with my nails when I am nervous so instead I grab the cuticle oil. I have noticed it calms me (applying some as I write this post!). When I was searching ways to use this oil I came across the one for cleaning my toothbrush and so glad I did because honestly I never cleaned my toothbrush besides running water through it (EEK!). Whenever I notice a room in the house smells musty I like to diffuse the lemon EO because it clears it right up making it smell fresh. The all-purpose cleaner is so great it does the job without having to use harsh chemicals.

I love that it comes with euro dropper cap making it easier to use just the right amount. I am trying to find a con but it is impossible with this product. Simply Earth's Lemon Essential oil is a steal because of the quality, quantity, and price!

A little bit about the company: 
Simply Earth not only has essential oils but also deodorizers (for shoes, feet, and sports gear), air and fabric fresheners, and mosquito repellent. Additionally, they donate 13% of profits to help end human trafficking. #simplyearth

Natural Finish Wood Hangers - J.S. Hanger

My Rating: «««««

 I was excited to get these in because I have only ever used wire and plastic hangers. J.S. hangers are made of real wood, from Gugertree, and have a chrome hook that turns 360 degrees. With slight curves and U-shaped grooves this hanger can hold many styles of clothes. 

Pros:
Made of real wood
Well made and sturdy - I can hang light or heavy clothes
Looks a lot better in closet than plastic/wire hangers
Natural finish and smooth
Many types of clothing styles will stay on the hanger
U-shaped grooves to keep straps / sleeves on
Has a round bar with a clear non-slip plastic to keep pants hanged

Cons:
Although it's smooth when I hang some clothes I could hear some snagging
U-shaped bar is not smooth at all
Not delicate cloth friendly so be careful

When I switched out my old plastic and wire hangers for J.S. hangers I was also able to get rid of some clothes! I was able to hang shirts, dresses, and pants. I love that my closet looks more uniformed with these beautiful hangers! At a price of $36 for a set of 20 hangers I would buy more because of the quality. Now I just need to get some more clothes and J.S. Hangers ;).

No more flimsy hangers!
*_* Love it! I need more!!!

Teardrop Shape VicTsing 1.3L Ultrasonic Humidifier

My Rating: ««««¶

This humidifier by VicTsing can hold a little over 5 cups of water. I love that you have easy control over how much mist comes out of the nozzle by the turn of a dial. You can also turn the curved nozzle 360 degrees to direct the mist wherever you would like.

At the highest setting with tons of mist being produced the humidifier can continually work for 5 hours! And of course it can last longer when the dial is turned down. If you would like to use the humidifier while you sleep it does have a safety feature, if the water in the tank gets too low it will automatically shut off. I love to have the humidifier on while I sleep with the dial a little past half way so that the mist can last all night.

Additionally, it also has a LED light that changes between 7 beautiful soothing colors. However, I do like that the light can be turned on and off as you like. Another plus of this product is it can diffuse essential oils. Near the cord there is a tray for the oils. Now if you want a strong aroma than it would be best to get a product that is only for diffusing but I like the dual purpose of this product. For me the smell is very light but still notable. 


This humidifier does require maintenance and weekly cleaning which can be found in the manual. The only thing I was not able to do was use a towel to wipe down the inside of the water tank. So I just poured some purified water in the tank and shook to clean it. Overall, I really like this humidifier it works great to keep the air from being so dry and in turn makes my skin healthier. The VicTsing Ultrasonic is currently only $39.00! You can purchase it HERE.

Mpow Buckler Bluetooth Speaker

My Rating: ««««¶

I recently received the Mpow Buckler Bluetooth waterproof speaker for review. It comes with a suction cup on the back to mount on a flat surface, as well as a hook that allows you to hang it. In the box you will also find an instruction manual, USB charging cord, and a hook.

Connecting the speaker to my phone was easy. I turned on the speaker and the phone (with Bluetooth on) was able to find and connect to the speaker.
This speaker has buttons for volume, song change, pause/play (call control), and on/off. It also has a USB charging port, mic, and LED light indicator.

I love being able to change songs and volume while in the shower with the speaker controls. The quality of product material and sound wise is great for the price. The speaker can get profoundly loud and still keep a clear sound. At a price of $19.99 I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a portable waterproof Bluetooth speaker. You can purchase HERE. :)


Here is a video of me using the speaker:

VoilaVe Coconut Moisture with Retinol

My Rating: ««««¶

This face and neck moisturizer is good. Although I do not need ant-aging products I ordered this because it claims to help moisturize and reduce the size of pores. I love that a few of the ingredients are organic but more of the ingredients were organic. When I used it I loved that it was not greasy and was easily absorbed into the skin but still moisturizing. I wish the product has a scent to it although I am sure others will like that it does not have a scent. The product came in a purple box and had a plastic seal around the cap. I love that the product comes with a pump. I only need 2 pumps to cover face and neck. This product last 6 months after opening so I wrote the open date on the bottle so that I will not forget. I will be using this daily because it feel great on my skin.

I also received a sample of VoilaVe beauty revealed but I have not tried it.
