Namefully Has Custom Name Jewelry In a Variety of Sizes and Colors (Review)




 Namefully offers numerous types of custom jewelry in a variety of materials, colors, and sizes.  The original Carrie necklace design, is now in acrylic! This necklace can be made with any name in any of 15 colors. Chain length can be one of 5 sizes: 14", 16", 18", 20", 22".


My Review:

I recently had the chance to review a Custom Acrylic Carrie Necklace in my choice of color and size.  I chose the 16" chain with my daughter, Savanna's name in silver mirror.  It arrived in a cute little mesh bag.

The first necklace I received was broken during shipping.  The company was very quick to ship out a replacement.  When it arrived, the chain had broke from the necklace.  I fixed this myself with a pair of pliers but the links bent very easily.  I think my daughter would break it in no time so I am going to replace the chain with a higher quality chain.  I love the name part of the necklace and would recommend it to anyone who wants a custom jewelry piece.  Check out the website or follow them on Facebook or Twitter.

Hydrate and Improve Your Hair With Arvazallia Argan Oil Treatment and Mask (Review & Contest)




Arvazallia's slogan is "Beauty Maximized" because they create products that are designed to not only maximize your beauty but to maximize your confidence and spirit as well. This professional series hair treatment product line is one of the highest rated and best selling salon quality argan oil hair treatment lines.


My Review:

I recently had the chance to review two items of my choice from the Arvazallia Argan Oil line.  I chose the Premium Argan Oil Hair Treatment and the Hydrating Argan Oil Mask.  As a huge fan of Argan Oil, I must say these are some of the best I have tried.  As many of you know from previous posts, my hair has been bleached, colored black, bleached again, permed, straightened....and the list goes on.  You name it, I've done it.  My hair has been ruined to a point that I thought I would never save it unless I shaved it all off.  I had finally cut a few inches off and started deep conditioning treatments when these products arrived.
  

I started out by using the Hydrating Argan Oil Mask every few days as a conditioner.  I left it in for five minutes then rinsed.  While my hair is still damp everyday, I take a small amount of the Argan Oil Hair Treatment and run it through my hair and let it dry.  I pay special attention to the ends.  My hair does not feel oily or look greasy like some oils do.  It makes my hair soft and silky without frizz.  I would definitely recommend these products to anyone who wants to make their hair look and feel healthier.  Check out the website for all of their amazing products.

Contest
 Arvazallia is hosting a video contest in which you can win some major prizes!  There's over $6000 worth in prizes up for grabs.  You can also vote on other videos once every day for a chance to win prizes as well!
         Video submissions for the contest began on November 17th, but because of the holiday season, they have extended out the submission deadline to January 11th, 2015.  Digital Voting on contest entries will be extended out until January 25th, 2015.  For all the details check out the Challenge HERE.

Take Care of Pet Hare With Epica Slicker Brush (Review)




The Epica's pivoting head makes the grooming experience more comfortable and efficient for both you and your dog. And with retractable pins, clean-up's a cinch too! Retractable Pins Make Brush Cleaning Easy
Simply push the retractor button, and the pin bed is left bare for you to shake off the hair. It's so fast and easy, you can even do it in mid-groom while keeping one hand on your dog.
Pivoting Head Adjusts to Your Pet's Curves
Reaching all your pet's sides and angles can be difficult with an ordinary brush. Epica came up with a brilliant solution: instead of bending and straining your wrist, you adjust the angle of the brush head. Now even brushing his belly is a breeze!
Durable Stainless Steel with Non-Slip Grip
Sturdily constructed for long use, the Epica features flexible, non-rusting stainless steel pins that gently but thoroughly remove tangles and dead hair build-up in the undercoat. Non-slip gripper nodes on the handle keep you completely in control.


My Review:

I recently had the chance to review an Epica Self-Cleaning Slicker Brush.  We have two Yellow Labs that shed like crazy all summer long so I am excited to try this.  I have to keep them outside or constantly keep brushing them or my hardwood floors look like I have white shaggy carpet on them!  Even after brushing them with an under brush, I am still constantly cleaning my floors!  After using Epica, I hardly see any hair in my house.  It is colder and they have their winter coat right now but I know it has made a difference.  They love being brushed with this brush unlike the others.  It usually takes two people to brush my youngest dog, Ranger,  because he hates it so much.  Now he lays here and enjoys it...until I try to get his picture.


Since the head of the brush swivels, I can get under his belly and around his whole body in no time.


It even captures the finest hairs.  My cat loves it too.


When the brush is ready to be cleaned out, one press with my thumb releases the hair.  I only need one hand! 


 The hair drops in one clump.  I love this brush and would definitely recommend it to any pet owner.  You can purchase it HERE on Amazon.

My Review:
 
I recently had the chance to review four colors of my choice from the new SinfulColors Holiday 2014 collection.  I chose Pine Away, Decadent, Hottie, & Endless Blue.  When I buy nail polish, I always buy them in sets of two because all of my nails can't be the same color.  My ring finger has to be different but still has to match well with the others.  I knew the Hottie & Endless Blue would go great together as shown below...
 
 
The Hottie is a little too sheer for me to wear alone but looks great over top of the darker color.  These are one coat (except the ring finger).

I thought the Pine Away & Decadent would make a great Christmas theme but they didn't look good together.  I had my daughter polish my toes with Decadent.

 
It took four coats to get the sparkles to be thick enough to see well.  This might make a good top coat over another color but I would not recommend it by itself.

Finally, I polished my daughter's nails with the Pine Away.


This is an awesome color with the glitter made into it.  It only took one coat to make her nails stand out boldly and festive.  The polishes all went on smoothly and dried very quickly.  I would definitely buy SinfulColors again and would recommend them to anyone looking for great nail color.  You can only find these holiday colors at Walgreen's for a limited time.  Check out SinfulColors on  Twitter or Facebook.

I Love My Dog Shampoo Makes Your Dog Smell Great (Review)




"I Love My Dog Shampoo" is a great grooming product to keep your pet's coat clean, healthy, and itch free.  It is made with natural ingredients including oatmeal and pure neem oil that naturally moisturize and sanitize inflamed skin and relieve skin irritation associated with flea and tick infestation. In addition, neem oil is a natural insect repellent, so it helps to keep the insects away.  This product doesn't strip flea and tick topical preventatives.  It is very easy to foam and easy to wash out, so you will enjoy giving bath to your dog!  There are no harsh chemicals used, it is soap, detergent, and alcohol free.  Containing all natural ingredients, the product comes in a recyclable bottle and label, so it is good for our environment. "I Love My Dog Shampoo" doesn't irritate skin and is perfect for dry and sensitive skin.  It washes out all dirt, dust, and grease and keeps pet smelling fresh for days, leaving fur/hair soft and shiny and skin moisturized.  It works effectively on both short and long haired dogs.


My Review:

 I recently had the chance to review a bottle of "I Love My Dog Shampoo".  I have seven dogs who are in the house at least part of the time so I am giving baths regularly.  I can't stand to see a dirty dog.  When this product arrived, my kids and I started an assembly line in the bathroom.  One of us took a dog and scrubbed it with shampoo.  We had to wait five minutes for that to soak.  One of us rinsed and washed the face of the dog.  And one of us was drying the dogs as they came out of the tub.  The product smells great and the dogs all smelled nice after they were done.  All of my dogs are short-haired so they dried quickly and their coats were soft and shiny.  I really like this shampoo because it doesn't require you to wet the dog down before shampooing.  My dogs stayed calm because of this.  They normally would get excited if they got wet first.  Instead, they got a nice massage before getting wet.  Overall, I would definitely recommend "I Love My Dog Shampoo" to anyone who has a dog and wants them to smell great.  You can purchase it HERE on Amazon.  Check out the website or follow them on Facebook or Instagram.

Stay Warm and Still Use Your Touchscreen Devices With Glider Gloves (Review)



The connections we have with each other are what’s most important, they’re irreplaceable. It should be seamless, without barriers and without limits, working every time, all the time, no matter what.

Glider Gloves are innovative, practical, and simple to support your tech-infused lifestyle. Warm and durable winter gloves that work with any capacitive touch screen panel – think iPhone, Android, iPad, Galaxy Gear and similar.

They're a small Canadian company with a big heart.  They saw a problem that needed a solution and have designed and grown their product from the ground up. They use direct customer feedback to make Glider Gloves a world class product year after year.


My Review:

I recently had the chance to review a pair of Glider Gloves of my choice.  I chose the winter gloves in size medium because it says they would fit most women.  I mainly wanted to get these to wear while hunting.  While I'm sitting in the stand, people are always texting me.  I have to take my gloves off and my hands get cold again.  These gloves arrived just before shotgun season and when it started getting really cold here in Indiana.  It was the perfect time to put them to the test.  I wore them out on opening day and my hands stayed warm!  Then, the texts started... "Have you seen anything?"  "Did you shoot one yet?"  I could reply easily on my touchscreen phone without taking my gloves off.  This was nice because I was making less movement and noise than I normally would.  They are thin enough that I could shoot with them on if I needed to too but thick enough to keep me warm.  They have an anti-slip grip so my phone doesn't slide out of my hands.  These are the perfect gloves and are exactly what I have been looking for.  I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for gloves that can be worn to use their touchscreen devices.  Check out the website or follow them on Facebook or Twitter.

Repair Your Hair With Framesi BY Masque (Review & Giveaway)





Framesi BY Masque is an intense treatment of rich, whole grain proteins with amino acids, that restructure and rebuild damaged hair.  It instantly repairs hair, leaving it with body, strength, and shine.  Thermal and UV protectants help in maintaining color, leaving the hair rich and vibrant.  It is also weightless and will not build up.



My Review:

I recently had the chance to review a tube of Framesi BY Masque.  If you follow my posts, you would know my hair is a disaster because of what I put it through.  The bottom was black then I decided to bleach it back to blonde a few weeks ago.  I also blow dry and flat-iron everyday now so it is very damaged.  While transitioning to blonde, I was doing professional deep conditioning treatments every other day to repair my hair.  They weren't doing much for my hair.  This product arrived and I started using it instead.  My hair totally changed the first time I used it.  My hair transformed into silky soft, manageable hair that was not dry and frizzy.  I can actually wash it and go without drying and flat-ironing it to tame it down.  It smells so good too!  I am completely impressed with what this product has done to my hair and would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a hair makeover.  You can find BY Masque and other great products at the Beauty Care Choices website.  Be sure to follow them on Facebook, Pinterest, & Youtube as well.


Giveaway:

One lucky winner will receive a tube of Framesi BY Masque just like I reviewed.  To enter, just fill out the Rafflecopter form below.  Open to U.S. only.  Thank you for entering and good luck!
