Jamar Labs All Natural Wipes Review

Jamar labs logo

Jamar Labs makes three different wipes for different parts of the body. They have Wipe Your Face, Wipe Your Feet, and Wipe Your Hands. All of their wipes are 100% Natural Cotton, flushable/biodegradable, paraben and phthalate free. I got to try all three!

I first tried the Wipe Your Face. I used it at the end of the night and it was very refreshing! I love that it's 100% natural cotton, it isn't rough against my face! It has a non-soap makeup remover in it that doesn't irritate my skin. It comes in a pretty orange package and smells clean! These wipes contain aloe and chamomile.

Next, I tried the Wipe Your Feet. I used the wipes after walking around in black flip-flops all day. The wipes left my feet feeling cleaner and sweeter! These wipes come in a bright green package and do a great job absorbing odor. It contains eucalypus and menthol.

I used the Wipe Your Hands last because I wanted to wash my hands after touching my feet. The wipes made my hands feel very clean. The wipes arrive in a cute purple package and leave behind a pleasant scent! These wipes contain lavender and chamomile.

Jamar Labs Wipes


Check out Jamar Labs to try them yourself! You can order a sample 5 pak for only $1.95! A full 30 pak is $7.95.

Crazy Dog T-Shirts Review

Crazy Dog T-Shirts Logo

Crazy Dog T-Shirts has tons of t-shirts! There's something for everyone! Like this one:

Peanut Butter jelly time shirt

Or, this one:

Dope Sauce Shirt

It took me a while to decide on one shirt. In the end, I chose this:

Bayside Tigers Hoodie

I picked it because when I saw it I instantly remembered watching Saved By The Bell on TBS in the morning before I went to school, when I was younger. Plus, I thought it'd be cool to own a Bayside Tigers Hoodie!

This hoodie is really soft! I mean really soft! I love it! I ordered a large because I wasn't sure how it would fit. It's a bit big, but that's the way I like my hoodies to fit. It's awesome (I know, I might be a dork)! ;)

I also wanted my readers to know that they can WIN one for themselves. Crazy Dog T-shirts has a free daily giveaway! You can find out more about it here.

Ultimate Nights Party Review

Ultimate Nights Party Logo

Ultimate Nights Party offers many options for a romantic or relaxing time. I was sent several products in cute packaging to review.

I received Ultimate Instinct. It "reacts to your own body heat, blending with your own unique essence creating your own ULTIMATE RESULTS!!"

I also received several of their candles! All of their candles are made with a "wax blend composed of natural soy and grape seed oil." Also, they last a long time. Even the small ones are supposed to last approximately 19 hours! I love things that smell nice and these candles smell great! I was given 3 different ones:
*Passion - Passion Fruit, Orange & Strawberries. It smells wonderful!
*Desire - Mangos, Peach & Coconut. It's a bit lighter than Passion, but still lovely.
*Patience - Tobacco & Vanilla Bean. It's an interesting scent. I didn't think that I would like it, since it says tobacco. However, it's a nice and unique scent.

I also decided to give their shaving products a try.
I tried the shaving cream. "This rash-free Aloe Vera Shave Cream is enriched with Jojoba oil to condition, protect and soften the skin for a silky smooth shave." It "provides the closest shave, especially on sensitive areas which need extra protection. No more razor bumps!" It even comes in three scents: Regular, Pear Berry, and Green Tea. I tried the Pear Berry which smells quite nice.

Coochy

I also used the protection mist. "An after shave mist that's full of essential oils to protect the skin and keep it supple and luxurious."
I just spritzed myself right after shaving and let dry. It "eliminates razor bumps when used with cream."
I can happily report that the combination of the cream and mist have given me really smooth legs!

I would like to point out that Ultimate Nights is transitioning into Ultimate Lifestyle and will be carrying many more products in the future! In the mean time, check out Ultimate Nights Party for Romance and Sensual Products!

Nacho Mama Tees Review

Nacho Mama Tees Logo


Recently, I was able to choose a shirt to review from Nacho Mama Tees! They have a wide variety of cute, funny shirts. It was hard to choose just one!
Find X Shirt

I liked this funny shirt because I hate math! However, I decided on a shirt that meant something to me!

The Office Shirt

I picked this The Office T-Shirt because I watch The Office with my boyfriend and his family often. I also watch with my dad from time to time. I think the show is hilarious and the shirt is no different.

I was also impressed with the softness of the shirt. I ordered a large and it fits just fine. They were also really fast with the shipping! I must say, Nacho Mama Tees are a must-see. They have different, fun, unique, humorous, cool shirts.

I recently received Organicare Fresh Fix. It's a refreshing spritz of "aloe vera to quench thirsty skin, lavender to calm the senses, and green tea to invigorate tired, dull skin." It can soothe skin after sunburns, set mineral makeup, calm and soothe irritated skin. I found the mist to be very refreshing. It's an instant pick-me-up.

What He's REALLY Thinking Review

What's He Really Thinking Book


What’s He REALLY Thinking?

By Paula Rinehart

Thomas Nelson Publisher

“Relating to men is a daily immersion in another world.” Paula Rinehart recalls on her twenty years as a counselor, as well as studies and research to help women become better equipped to live with men. She also uses her own family and friends for stories to prove her point.

By using scientifically proven statistics, Rinehart opened my eyes to interesting things that I’d never noticed about men and women. She helped me better understand my boyfriend, whom I discovered was part Nurturer, part Scientist.

I loved the fact the Paula used quotes at the beginning of every chapter. It was like getting prepared for a new journey into the male psyche. She does refer to God and the Bible more than I thought she would. However, it definitely helps prove her point and engages the reader.

I believe Stasi Eldredge sums it up best, " ... a very relatable book (written)for every women who wants to grow in understanding and loving the men in her life."

Totally Texty Review and Giveaway

Totally Texty Logo

"Totally Texty is made specially for the scalp needs of teens and tweens, Totally Texty is Sodium Laurel Sulfate, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Parabens, DEA, and TEA free.Totally Texty™ products comes in a distinctively packaged bottle with a fun text message title ddg(drop dead gorgeous) and ytmn(you’re the man now). Each formulation has an age appropriate scent that appeals to teens and tweens."

I received DDG shampoo and conditioner, as well as YTMN shampoo. The YTMN does have a more manly smell to it, believe it or not. The DDG shampoo and conditioner left my hair clean and manageable. I love how the scent lasts for a long time! I take showers at night and could still smell the shampoo and conditioner on my hair the next morning! If you want a long-lasting scent, then this is great! I also like that the DDG shampoo and conditioner are both pink, it's cute!

Totally Texty is also allowing fans to
pick next type of shampoo and conditioner to be made.

Skin Free products also have a Toxicity Rating of "0" from the Environmental Working Group!

When I received my Skin Free products I was really excited to try them! I was so excited that when I opened my Niaouli Scrub for Blemish Prone Skin I spilled a little bit on the top of my phone! Luckily, I wiped it off quickly. I was impressed that the scrub didn’t hurt my phone at all! Not even a scratch. It did make it smell a bit different though! I believe this shows how gentle the Skin Free products are! However, I was still a bit scared to use the scrub because I know how some scrubs have huge chunks in it and they irritate/hurt my skin. I was also worried because I had never tried a scrub that was so liquid. I'm happy to say that the scrub is very nice! I plan to continue to use it once a week just to exfoliate my face. It leaves the skin refreshed and smooth!

I got to try the Scrub along with the Basic Four Gift Set! This set contains the Extra Moisturizing Soap & Shampoo Bar. I always use body wash because soaps dry out my skin and make it feel tight! This soap does not do that! It made my skin feel clean and natural! This soap has even received the National Eczema Association's Seal of Acceptance!

National Eczema Association's Seal of Acceptance


The set also includes the After Shower Moisture Spritz. I was excited to try this because being a college student means all I take are showers. The combination of the spritz and soap have made my skin really soft and silky! I'm impressed!

Another product in the set is the Niaouli Butter Stick. I like the application of this product. It's great for my feet and elbows! It contains healing oils which work wonders on my feet (I wear flip-flops often and my feet have become dry and kind of gross)!

Finally, the set included the Super Moisture Body Balm. I was used to the usual body lotion/butter that I've always used and didn't fully pay attention to the "Use just a few drops of this rich, thick, moisturizer to saturate your skin..." bit. However, I can say that this is not an understatement. I poured out entirely too much this first time. This bottle will last you a very long time because you need such a small amount.

Skin Free is currently offering a BOGO special at Walgreens and now, CVS. More information about that promo can be found here.
There's free shipping on orders of $25 or more on their website.

WIN! THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED!

Harry Potter

Well since I haven't received anything to review or giveaway I thought that I'd talk about one of my favorite things... Harry Potter! I've read all 7 books and was excited to see the movie! I've already seen The Half-Blood Prince twice! While, I can't say that it was perfect, or that it followed the book exactly it was still a very good movie! I realized that many of the scenes were left out, but at almost three hours long, I understand why.

I've decided to just start blogging about things that interest me until I get something to review or giveaway!
