Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream

The extremely harsh cold weather in the midwest has made my skin extremely dry. Fortunately I've been able to combat this dry skin with Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream.

My troublesome areas tend to be around and on my nose as a result from constantly blowing my nose from the sniffles. This moisturizer is quite rich so a little bit goes a long way. If you use too much it can feel greasy, so don't go overboard. Although it looks like a tiny jar (1 oz), it will definitely last for a while.

I received this sample from Cetaphil via Influenster for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Sweet'N Low

I had the opportunity to receive some Sweet'N Low samples from the brand via Crowdtap. In the package I got 10 sample packets, 5 coasters, and 2 recipe cards.

 I've used Sweet'N Low packets before when I'm out buying coffee or sampling coffee at shops like World Market where they often have tea and coffee samples available. Otherwise I've never personally purchased Sweet'N Low before.

I really liked using these individual sample packets. Usually at home I just use instant coffee and powder creamer so the Sweet'N Low was a real treat. I absolutely love how it has less calories and the fact that it is Diabetic-friendly. I can definitely see myself replacing sugar with Sweet'N Low!

Majestic Bombay Stainless Steel Tweezer for ingrown hair

This tweezer is extremely sharp so be extremely careful when you are using or just simply holding it. There is a plastic cover for the tip so if you keep that you'll be able to safely store this tweezer without having to worry about accidentally poking yourself.

I really like how wide the handle is where your fingers should be placed, it really makes a difference! All the tweezers I own have a slim handle so my hand gets cramped easily. Not only that, the wider handle in the center makes it easier to hold onto, which makes me feel a lot safer when using it.

I've used this to remove ingrown hair strands on my sister's legs and it does work. What I like to do is hold the tweezer at a slight angle and kind of scratch at the ingrown hair to get the hair strand out. I wouldn't recommend holding this tweezer at a 90 degree angle directly over the ingrown hair because it's a little hard to determine how deep the tips of the tweezer are going into the skin. I definitely would not feel comfortable using this anywhere near my eyes so I highly suggest that you don't use it near your eyes.

Zilu 6400 mAh Premium Power Portable Charger

This review is on the 6400 mAh Premium Power Portable Charger External Battery Pack. This is a portable charger for cell phones. It arrived with a Micro USB cord in a neatly packaged box with a small pamphlet including instructions to charge, use, and safety precautions. The charger has a power button, a USB port and micro USB port, and 4 LED status lights. The LED lights indicate the amount of charge left for the portable charger. The first initial charge is suppose to take 8 hours, however, it took less than that for me. I'm not sure exactly how long it took because I didn't really keep track of the time that well and I unplugged it in the middle of charging to go run an errand.

I definitely do get more charges out of this portable charger compared to a 3000 mAh one I already had. For those who are not familiar with what mAh means, like myself, it basically refers to how much battery power the unit or item can hold. So the higher the number, the longer the battery will last. Which makes sense that this 6400 mAh lasts longer than my 3000 mAh portable charger.

This portable charger doesn't get too hot while charging my phone at all. It feels warm to the touch only, whereas my phone gets pretty hot-pretty normal even when I charge it by electrical outlet. As of the size, this 6400 charger is slightly bulkier than my 3000 one that is similar to a lip gloss tube. They both weigh about the same also.

This Zilu portable charger definitely lived up to my expectations. It charges my phone quickly and still has enough juice to charge again 2 times. I recommend this portable charger for those who are frequently on the go and for travelers.

I received this item at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.

28 Day Moroccan Teatox Detox

This was my first time trying out any kind of detox tea before so I was pretty excited. I've seen and heard all the rave about detox teas from friends and strangers on Instagram, Youtube, and Facebook. When I received my package, I was surprised to see that there were two items: the Moroccan Teatox 28 Day and the Moroccan Teatox Night Cleanse. I was only expecting the 28 Day pack and thought that there was an error. It seemed like others who have reviewed this detox tea on Amazon also received the Night Cleanse package also.

The two packages arrived in a sealed clear plastic bag inside the shipment box. The tea packages are paper with a silver lining on the inside. I'm not sure what this silver lining is, plastic or aluminum perhaps. I couldn't find a slip of paper for directions in this plastic bag nor on the teatox packaging either. There was however the website for this company on the front of the 28 Day package, www.moroccanteatox.com that I referred to. While it may seem pretty obvious how you just simply steep the tea for a few minutes, I wanted more details since this was my first time trying out detox tea.

Before you even open the package, you can smell the mint and what I assume is hibiscus. It smells amazing! The tea bags are square shape, about the size of my palm. I was glad that this detox tea was in tea bags because a majority of the detox tea pictures and videos I've seen were of loose leaf detox tea and I don't have a tea strainer. There are 28 of the detox tea bags and 14 of the night cleanse tea bags. Based on the information that I found on the website, while you drink the 28 Day detox tea in the morning, the Night Cleanse tea is for every other night.

You only need to steep the tea bag for about 3 minutes, but you can leave it in the hot water longer if you want. The color of the tea is similar to a shade of cranberry juice. The tea tastes mildly sweet, which was great for me because I do not like teas that require sugar due to being too strong. The sweetness comes naturally from stevia as it is listed as part of the herbs in the tea. The Night Cleanse tea tastes just as good as the 28 Day one!
