Beabies Teething Pendant Review!
Recently I received the Beabies teething pendant to review and I was so excited to get it because I know a little boy who was in dire need of one! As I opened it, I noticed that there wasn't a plastic/silicone-y smell to the package or product! It's already ahead of other teethers I've experienced! Then, I decided to bend the pendant to see if it would be durable enough to withstand gnawing. It's thick, yet soft, durable, and is attached very securely with the cord. The cord is very durable and withstands a lot of tugging without any problem! I was also concerned that when the cable got wet, that the color would run. However, after testing it with some water, I haven't seen any issues with that aspect, either! The color is bright, beautiful, and very eye-catching. If you're looking for an affordable, safe, and durable teether, look no further than the teething pendant by Beabies!

Mega Mesh Magnetic Screen Door Review
The first thing that I noticed about this screen door is that it is very sturdy and durable. It isn't flimsy, but is flexible enough to enter and exit the house with! Our small dogs and cats can't run through, but our big dogs can cause it to unlatch. When they exit, however, the magnets pull the screen back together.
The best part about the screen door was the ease of installation and the durbility of the velcro that was sewn into the door. I figured that the velcro would rip out after a couple of passes, but it has yet to show weakness!
The screen allows the air to flow in and out of the house and keeps those nasty bugs out! It's also easy to brush them off of the screen door when entering to avoid letting them in! The door doesn't open with the pressure of brushing them off.
If you're looking for a great way to cool your house in a conventient way, I'd highly suggest the MegaMesh screen door!

Le Garcon Grooming Pomade Review!
The biggest aspect of the Le Garcon Grooming Pomade that he pointed out was it's hold. He slept with it in his hair one day as we were taking a nap and when he woke up, his hair still looked great! Using this product means that your hair won't fall throughout the day and you don't have to worry about your style splitting.
The thing that I noticed most was the smell. It's not super strong, but it's noticeable. At first I thought it had a mint smell...but that doesn't quite describe it. It smells familiar, but I can't place it. It's not a bad smell...just unique. After a while, I didn't notice it at all.
This pomade goes a long way! It only takes a little dollop to do the job, and since it holds all day, you don't have to reapply! It's a little thicker than other products, so that means that you're going to use even less.
If you're looking for an affordable alternative to high-priced and short-lived products, I'd highly suggest Le Garcon's Grooming Pomade!

The Offspring (The Children of Cain Series Book 2) Review!
As always, Craddock describes everything in beautiful detail and her ideas are complete and make sense. The whole story line is easy to follow and the progression of events flow nicely. The action isn't over-the-top and it plays with real emotions. It's easy to get attached to the characters and their mindset becomes your own. You want the good to prevail and the bad to be snuffed out. However, it's a little more complicated than that.
If you're looking for a fantastic read, I'd highly suggest the Children of Cain series! You won't be disappointed!
Strand Maximizer Strand Thickening Fibers Review!
At first, I expected the fibers to look goofy...after all...they're colored. And as much as I'd like to think I have standard hair color...I don't. I have crazy dark burgundy, so I selected the "Auburn" color. When they arrived, I was hesitant to open the package because I just KNEW it would be a mess. However, I took it slow and used a little at a time, slowly building up to my satisfaction. I must say...I'm VERY happy! This does virtually no damage to my hair, isn't noticeable (color-wise) and gives me that volume that I've been looking for!! I'm so excited to know that I can just throw this into my routine and have thicker hair all day!
The only downside is I like playing with my hair now that it's getting longer. You definately don't want to do that! Just put it in and leave it along. It withstands normal movement...but not sliding your hands over your hair a hundred times in a row!
Don't damage your hair any further and don't pay hundreds of dollars for expensive products that might not work! This is your answer!!
Eco Defense Bed Bug Killer Review!
In fact, as someone who used to travel a lot (for college coursework), I've heard horror stories of classmates accidentally taking them back to their homes from suites (NICE, VERY expensive hotels, mind you). So...this spray is the PERFECT preventative. I've used it on the bed, pillows, blankets, you name it! I've been using it once a week or every other week if I forget. It doesn't smell chemical-y as you may expect. The pump operates smoothly and the spray is even.
To test this out, I found a tick outside (it's Arkansas...we have them in the woods) and sprayed him. My logic is that they're both hard-bodied, bloodsucking insects. I'm happy to say that it worked...and it was one less tick that I had to worry about getting on my dogs!
NOTE: DO NOT USE THIS AS A TREATMENT FOR PETS!
If you're looking for a way to prevent a bed bug infestation, are traveling, or have guests...I would highly suggest using this spray before and after!
Innogie® ELite Series 3200mAh Aluminum Portable Charger Review!
I'm on the go CONSTANTLY! It just so happens that I'm also constantly on my devices! Mostly, I read in my downtime from my Kindle...but I also check emails and listen to music. Both of those things require a lot of battery (through using data or WiFi!). When I was offered the opportunity to test a portable battery charger, I was very excited! I received the Innogie ELite Series 3200mAh Aluminum Portable Charger and...it's awesome!
Now...I've tested chargers in the past...and they've got one of two problems: they charge super fast and they don't last...or they take 8+ hours to charger and by the time they're done...you could have just charged your phone on the wall and have done it faster! My favorite aspect of this battery charger is that it doesn't take long to charge and it can recharge my phone completely two and part of a time!
It's not big and bulky...at all. In fact...it's smaller than my phone. Most portable chargers are big and bulky and definitely bigger than my phone. This makes it easy to store in my phone wallet and easy to carry around with me.
I love the fact that I can drop it, sit on it, and otherwise unintentionally hurt it and it takes the damage.
It's a fantastic charger that's easily the most convenient one I've used! It's awesome for situations where you don't know where your next charge is coming from! It's also a great alternative to a car charger (two of my first cars didn't allow me to charge!).
Grab yours here!
