Review: ChiroDoc Coccyx Seat Cushion

**Disclosure: I received this product for a discount in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.**  

Discomfort at the desk is common, or so I believed.  I actually thought it was my mattress causing all the pain but at this point I am guessing it was a combination of an old mattress, a old office desk chair, and poor posture.  I took a risk and gave this seat cushion a try - the ChiroDoc Coccyx Seat Cushion.  

This cushion has been a great change for my chair at work.  The cushion on the chair was minimal, worn out, and uncomfortable.  This cushion gives me a nice area for my bum to sit all day long.  It is made of memory foam so it is plush and conforms in shape.  It has actually made me realized how slumped I was all day, and how my posture was very poor.  Now I can feel that I hold my body differently.  I love that is springs back easily so that when I return to my chair, it is plush again. The fabric is soft and color is an easy blue that will not look obnoxious in the professional setting.

Beware - when you open the package it appears huge. I took it to work and the whole drive there I was thinking that there was no way it would fit in my chair.  But I was very surprised when I saw it fit right in, give plenty of space to sit.

My back feels so much better when leaving work and going home for the day.  I am happy that I gave this a shot.  If you need a change to your work chair, if you are going home achy from sitting at the computer all day, then I would recommend you try this seat cushion.

Review: BZTZ Pineapple Corer

**Disclosure: I received this product for a discount in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.**  

Where do I even begin with this product... the BZTZ Pineapple Corer.

I saw it and thought - hey, we eat a lot of pineapple. We include it in our lunch boxes regularly. Eat it for dessert after dinner. Grab it as a snack during the day. Why not give it a try?

After using it, I am absolutely disappointed with myself and the fact that I did not invest in this product sooner.

Yes - it is that amazing! So here is the deal. Its a silver rotating part with a detachable black handle (for cleaning purposes probably). Click it together. Take your pineapple and cut off all the leaves and a part of the top. Maybe about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch into the depth. Place the silver corer, with handle attached, in the middle of the pineapple.

Now twist. Twist. Twist. All the way down.

I was skeptical at this point, wondering how I was going to pull the entire thing out and what disaster would follow. I turned the pineapple on its side and pulled. Out came the pineapple, perfectly cut in a spiral. Smooth edges. No messy brown edging. What?! Could it be this easy?

Apparently so and to think all these years I was cutting and slicing, and disappointed with how long it would take to cut the dang pineapple. My husband just laughed at me as I stood there in awe that it really works.

So I am sold on this product. Absolutely sold. I just started imagining all the stuff I could make with pineapple. Of course, that will stay in my imagination because who am I kidding? But if I can make just regular old pineapple this easy to cut and have prepped for the week, then I will take that.

This particular product also came with a watermelon cutter, which I am sure by this point we all know that that is a pretty amazing tool too.  Easy to cut, easy to remove, and easy to serve.  My excitement for the corer definitely overtook the experience and I didn't get the watermelon pictures. In the end, two great tools making my life easy - I cannot complain.

I hope you find this review helpful and perhaps find that the BZTZ Pineapple Corer is for you.

Review: Disney Pixar Planes Backpack

**Disclosure: I received this product for a discount in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.**  


So my kids are Disney kids... 100% Disney.  I am guilty of showing them movies, reading them books and taking them to Disneyworld.

So looking for gifts usually involves something that is Disney. For my son, I am loving this Disney Planes backpack. 

First of all, if we go anywhere there are a few critical items that must go along.  Extra pair of clothes, wipes, and of course,... toys.  This backpack is great at meeting our needs to carry those extras along to daycare, to the store, road trips and more.  He loves filling it up with everything from reading books, coloring books, crayons, stuffed toys, cars, etc.  I love slipping in the just-in-case items for accidents and emergencies.  Then he zips it up, puts it on his back, and is ready to take on the world.  

I love the bright and colorful pictures on the front, and the large pocket for our must-haves.  The straps are adjustable and the zipper is easy to use.  While it may seem like an ordinary backpack, if you know any small child, then you know how this easily becomes a prized possession.  

I recommend giving it a try if you have a child that loves Disney's Planes and needs that special bag to their carry their most important toys.

Review: Foot Callus Remover

**Disclosure: I received this product for a discount in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.**  

So here we go... getting real personal here.  

You know summer is coming to an end.  And it is time to start wearing closed toe shoes.  But that doesn't mean we have to have summer, worn out, callused feet hiding in socks and boots.  

So I was able to give this foot callus remover a try as a part of a product review.  Happy feet? I hope so...

The highlights - 

Completely rechargeable! Yes, no more needing batteries. It came with a mini USB cord to charge it. Just use one of your own adapters to plug into the wall or connect to you laptop or computer.  No more wasting money on batteries - which is awesome in my opinion.

Extra roller. Two rollers are provided, so that you don't have to worry about finding a new one should you wear the first one out.  Although a downside is that I am not sure how you can get more rollers or how much they cost - if this is your go-to tool year-round and you wear them out. 

Water proof.  I took this into the shower, expecting it to die.  Nope. Completely worked while I was in the shower.  Which again, is a huge deal because I would rather do my foot TLC in the shower.

The downside -

I could not figure out the right amount of pressure to put on this when it was against my foot.  I would place it and it would stop.  I tried applying it lightly, but then I felt this might not be working as effectively as it should be.  This was frustrating.

Short cord - This comes with a really short mini USB cord.  Like super short. So don't expect to plug and use at the same time unless you have a long one you can spare. 

Overall. I loved all the perks to this foot callus remover, but felt that overall it would not suffice well due to it inability to take the pressure.  Honestly, if you have rough feet, you know it takes work to get them looking and feeling loved again.  I am going to start over with this - try wearing it down and recharging all the way to see if any that helps any.  Otherwise, I would say read the reviews carefully and make your best judgment call on the product. It may be one that is on its way to being totally awesome with some minor improvements.

Review: Argoil Renew Hair Mask

**Disclosure: I received this product for a discount in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.**  

My hair is far from being iconic, stylish and vibrantly healthy.  This last time around at the salon, what should have been an ombre turned into a roots peeking highlight job.  Very sad that it didn’t have the fading from one color to the next, and that the lighter color went too high up.  But in fear of burnt hair, I let it go and walked away with a half smile.  How do you even begin to approach your stylist about the eh-overcharged POS job they did?  I knew I would have to do some damage control, including some special conditioning.  Argol Renew Hair Mask offered just the help I needed to start getting it back to a healthier appearance.  

When the product came in, I could not wait to get my hands on it.  Opened up that sucker and I was greeted with a soft fine aroma and a thick luxurious cream.  In reading the directions, I was unfortunately discovered they were limited.  It said to apply to the hair, rinse with warm water, once a week.  But I needed details… Apply dry? Apply wet? How long do I wait?

So this was really about trial and error.  I read up on reviews and other masks, and the directions I found were varying as well. So I just gave it a shot. First time around, dry hair.  Rubbing that mask through was difficult because I didn’t feel like it was gripping onto the hair right.  Waited about 10 minutes, showered, and then checked the results.  Guessing my hair was just too dry for it to really create the mask effect. While my hair was conditioned and pretty smooth, I wanted more.  The next time, I did it while in the shower with wet hair.  After I shampooed, I skipped my regular condition and applied the mask.  This is where I felt it coat the hair.  I tried to wait it out as long as I could, and what felt like ten minutes was probably more like five.  Rinsed it out, and checked the results. This was so much better.  Combed it out smoothly and enjoyed the fresh scent.  My hair was easy to manage, smooth and soft to touch.  It stayed that way after I had straightened it with a flat iron as well.  My hair felt so nice and again, the smell was wonderful.

I have been pleased with this product.  While my hair is still in a healing phase, and soon it will undergo a coloring process to return to dark hair for the fall and winter, I expect that I will continue using this weekly to ensure I am giving it some extra TLC.

So if you are interested in it, I found it on Amazon - Argoil Renew Hair Mask - and I recommend you give it a try if you are looking to give your hair some extra love.

Review: Lightning Jolt Case

**Disclosure: I received this product for a discount in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.**  

Well I may be really late in the game, or I may have come across on of the best new products ever...  I got this case recently, called the Lightning Jolt. It is a case that is totally useful because it has the lightning adapter built into the case. Pretty cool concept if I do say so myself. 

I saw this charger and I just knew I needed to give it a shot.  Ordered off of Amazon, so it came in quickly.  I chose the pink case. It was easy to put on the phone. All sides and the back are fully covered.  A good size lip around the phone face incase it falls face first. All openings are the correct size. All buttons are fully functional. And when you turn the case over, you find the built into the back is the charger.  

Pop it out, plug it into your charging outlet or your laptop and you are good to go.  The charger is sturdy and lacks flexibility so you will need to find something to prop the phone on if you are trying to charge in in a wall outlet or in the car adapter, otherwise it works perfect to lay on the table as it is plugged into my laptop.  It snaps into the back by tucking the adapter first and then pushing the USB part.  It seems snug enough that it won't fall out while using the phone.

I love having this case because when I am working and see my phone is low on charge, I can remove the cable, plug it in, and let it charge.  No time wasted trying to find where I put the cable.

So if you find yourself needing a charger, but you are bad about keeping the cable around, then the Lightning Jolt case may be for you! I hope those of you that try it out find it as useful as I did!

Review: Tea Tree Essential Oil

**Disclosure: I received this product for a discount in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.** 

Every just had one of those weeks when you try to catch up but keep falling further and further behind. Welcome to my year... Can't seem to break my luck so what do I do. I say forget this - let's go try out my latest essential oil from New York Biology. I can't go wrong with that, right?

So I have used tea tree oil quite a bit before, as it may be the only essential oil I am even semi familiar with because I use it for a nice foot soak. My feet are tired. I push them to the limit and you can tell. The shoes I wear - heels, booties, sandals, boots, tennis, flip flops - I am sure you are guilty of it too. Then painting those toe nails constantly, to match our clothes, or just look cute. Fashionable feet is so much better than happy feet. So when I can call it quits on other stuff, I usually give my toes a break and a nice foot soak.

This is where I recommend tea tree oil. When I first researched it, I was looking to help my toe nails to look healthier, and to ensure my battered feet were staying clean. When you research tea tree oil you come to find that it is supposed to have antiseptic, cleaning characteristics. So I put a few drops in my foot soak, a bit of epsom salt, and ta da - an easy, relaxing, aromatic foot soak. Now the product seems to be of quality status - it came in a dark bottle to protect it from UV damage. It has a handy dandy dropper to make sure it is used properly. And to me - the aroma is wonderful. Clean. Strong. Refreshing.

 I hope that you too may find a use for this tea tree oil by New York Biology. I have been privileged to keep up with their products and they do not disappoint!
