Nail Cones Review




I was chosen to review nail cones.



Here is what their website has to say about them:

"Have you ever gotten really frustrated painting your fingernails when you get the nail polish on your skin? If you have, your problems are over. Nail Cones is a simple, easy-to-use product that will solve the problem. You can save time and frustration by using Nail Cones – and your nails will look great after you have finished.

Check out the video on how to use Nail Cones. We have really tried to make this a product that women can use without a lot of hassle to achieve a professional polished look.
We hope you agree and give Nail Cones a try."
You can buy the product for just $5.99! 


Personally I did not find the product useful as it is intended to be used by the company! I thought that it was hard to use and did NOT fit my finger nails well. However, my nails are pretty long and I do not normally have any problems with getting polish on the tips of my fingers. My problem is generally on the sides of my nail bed. So with that being said.....I decided to use the product in a different way! 


I placed the sticker on my nail and used the shape to make part of a circle on my nail! I think they worked great for this! Do you have any awesome tricks for painting your nails? Decorating them? Designing them? I love doing my nails and all hints and tricks are GREATLY appreciated! Leave them in the comments for me!

Rainbow Bandz Organiziation Box Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Have you heard of the new trend.....rubber band looms to create jewelry and toys?? There are many different brands and types out there.....wonder loom, rainbow loom, etc. Girls (and even some boys) are creating their own jewelry with these simple yet fun tools.



Well as most of my readers know....I have an 8 year old daughter. She LOVES her loom and LOVES creating jewelry and other neat things with it. With that being said, you can imagine how many rubber bands she has. After all, she HAS to have ALL of the different colors, glitter, metallic, glow in the dark, the dye, and even scents (yes they scented some of them)!

Now, the problem with this is that I was finding these rubber bands EVERYWHERE! 


This is AFTER I had her put them in a pile rather than all over her bedroom floor. LOL! Then I got the Rainbow Bandz Organization Box for her!  



I love that all her bands are organized and kept together with this box. It is thick plastic and the best part is you can remove some of the walls so that the cells can be larger if you want them to be. Each compartment is 2 inches wide x 1.9 inches deep and is 13 1/2 inches long in maximum.



This box really was the answer to all her disorganized bands and she absolutely LOVES that she doesn't have to pick through them to find the color that she wants. She just goes to that cell and grabs it out. 

I would definitely recommend this for anyone that does the rubber band looms or even for other small things such as beads, gems, crystals, etc.

PIMSLEUR SPANISH LEVEL 1 REVIEW

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Hi readers! I am so excited to share with you the review of this AMAZING product!



I want to say I am LOVING this program! I have only done a few units so far and I already have learned and (more importantly) retained SO MUCH!!!

There are 16 discs total in the box.......there are 30 units and a reading lessons disc. It also comes with a link to an online reading booklet and owner's manual. You only do one unit a day and each unit is only about 30 minutes long. You don't move on to the next unit until you get about 80% correct of the current unit. With that being said, I have not had do a unit more than one time!



Let me give a little background on me and my Spanish language learning journey....I took two years of Spanish in high school (that was back in 2004 & 2005) and then I did take a refresher semester in college in 2012! With all of that, I knew very little still! It was so hard to retain for me! I mean I knew the basics but that is it. I have always wanted to know Spanish and be able to speak it clearly and understand it. When I seen this product, I had to give it a try! What did I have to lose?



I got WAY more than I expected! After just the first lesson I had learned and retained quite a bit. I was able to tell my husband (in Spanish) a few things that I learned and what they meant! After the first unit, you will be able to tell someone that you are an american and that you do not speak nor understand Spanish (or that you do...lol) and a few other things! You learn all this with just the first unit! I can not wait to continue with my daily units!

If you are wanting to learn Spanish (or any other language....they have many other courses for different languages), I HIGHLY recommend this source!

Simply Essentials Nail Clippers Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

As most of you know, I have two kids! One things about my son is...he HATES getting his finger nails and toe nails cut. The worse part is when my nail clippers won't cut the nails. My little munchkin has some pretty thick, strong nails and so it is hard to find nail clippers that will actually cut through his nails on the first clip. Sometimes I even have to cut two or three times to get through the nail. With him hating the whole process.....it makes it that much harder when my equipment is not functioning properly.



I have tried many different brands, types, and makes of finger nail clippers and have yet to find one that I want to stick with! That is until I found these Simply Essentials Nail Clippers!



The Simply Essentials nail clippers are, what I would call, industrial strength nail clippers. They are stainless steel and heavy duty. They are nice and sharp and so they cut through my little monster's thick nails the first cut and with ease! They are pretty large. However, the large size makes them easier to grip for me. Another awesome perk, they come with a one year guarantee!


I can honestly say that I have finally found the nail clippers that I will always purchase! If you want quality and functionality....then these nail clippers are the ones for you!

Nutra-Lift Anti-Aging Complex review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

I have been chosen to review Nutra-Lift Rejuvenating “A” NANO RENEU™ The 24 KT GOLD Standard in Skin Care. 


I really like this formula. It has a thin consistency and it smells good. You wash your face and dry and then apply the product. The bottle states that if you have sensitive skin you should apply with a slightly damp face. I only need one pump of the product in order to cover my whole face, so the bottle will last a long time. I use it once a day. Another thing that I like about this product is that when I put it on, it kind of has a slight tingling effect to it. I have been using for about 2 weeks now and I have already started noticing a difference, especially in the wrinkles around my eyes! (My crows feet.......yes I am only 26 but I have crows feet already.....darn genes lol!)

I wanted to share what the company has to say about this specific product:

"Nutra-Lift® Rejuvenating “A” Nano Reneu™ PLUS GROWTH FACTORS: Advanced Anti-Aging Skincare 
Golden Collagenine, a NEW advanced Peptide is the latest weapon in the Anti-Aging war.
