Crave Precisio Tweezers

If most of you are like me your tweezers come from somewhere like CVS or Walgreens, and they probably cost under $5. The drugstore tweezers are great, for maybe a week and then they begin to dull. Not these tweezers! These are the Zeus of tweezers! The day I got them I noticed my eyebrows REALLY needed some work, so I gave these a whirl. To completely pluck my 3 months worth of not waxing only took minutes and was far less painful than a wax job. I could pull out clumps of hair at a time with perfect precision and almost not feel a thing. Getting out ingrown hairs is now a breeze. Also a piece of glass I had gotten in my foot from shattering my coffee pot was very easily removed these are so sharp.
They came in a nice little tube,

which held another tube,

which finally held these amazing tweezers.
Like I said above these are perfect for brow shaping. Calibrated tension makes the removal easy and won't pinch the skin, and they are perfectly angled for your brow bone. The tips are hand filed for smooth, simple, and pain free hair removal. The tips are super sharp and will never require sharpening. They are guaranteed for life.Great in a first aid kit to remove ticks or debris. They have a life time guarantee. They can be replaced with no hassle if you are not satisfied or with a full refund.
These are not drugstore tweezers, these are so much better! I will never buy a pair of CVS tweezers again after using these. I highly recommend this product.

Vita Nut Milk Bag

I've never had Almond milk or any kind so I thought that this would be an interesting product to test out.
This can be used to make almond milk, hemp milk, greek yogurt, and many other things! This has been my coffee maker the past few days since I busted mine...MMMM cold brew can you feel my enthusiasm? Any way I decided what better way to test this out than to make Almond milk? So I researched a little and concocted a recipe that I decided to give a shot. I pulled pieces of this recipe of pinterest and some from the ebook that I received with the milk bag. The recipe is as follows:
  • 1 cup of almonds
  • 4 cups of water
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup of cocoa powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar (optional)
The almonds need to soak for 24 hours in just enough water to cover them. When you are ready to make the milk rinse the almond and put them in the blender.
After you gather all your ingredients blend the 4 cups water and the 1 cup of almonds for about a minute.
Then add in all the other ingredients and blend for about 30 seconds. How easy, right!?
next you put your milk bag in a larger mixing bowl or something large and spouted so you can pour easily. Pour the milk through the bag into the bowl and squeeze the heck out of the bag to get all the milk out. I wish I got a picture of this, but I only have 2 hands.
Tadaaaa! Squeezed milk. Just pour in a container!
Here's the finished product it yielded a quart and will keep in the fridge for 5-7 days. And all that awesome alomond pulp you strained out with the bag?
That can make almond flour/meal by being spread on a baking sheet and popped in the oven at 170 for 4 hours. 

This bag completely served its purpose! There are no little almond bits in my milk and it is so good! The bag makes it so easy I can't wait to make more!

Keomi Skincare - Organic All Natural Handmade Soap

I love homemade soap! So I jumped on the opportunity try out Keomi's homemade soap! I was so excited I forgot to snag a picture before tearing into it!
The soap came wrapped in tissue paper,

and included a business card which when opened contained storage instructions.

I chose to break a piece off my soap to use and save the rest.
This smells so yummy! This particular one smells like lemon grass and feels so good on my skin. It does not leave behind the filmy residue that commercial soap does and works wonders on my sensitive skin. This is a great bar to use as a facial cleanser. I highly recommend this soap.

1.00mm 540 Needles Derma Roller by Petunia Skincare

I'm 100% up for trying new things, so when this product popped up on my Tomoson I had to go for it. The Petunia Skincare Derma Roller is an interesting product to say the least. It contains 540 1.0 mm needles on a roller meant to roll on your face and body to stimulate collagen production and help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. It can help reduce the appearance of scars and cellulite as well as smooth skin ( this is from the collagen). This product did work for me after a few uses my skin appeared tighter and smoother, but I don't think this is for me. Its not completely painless, to me it felt like little stings and I'm not a fan of beauty is pain. I would recommend this product to someone who doesn't mind a little ouch to look good.

Oleavine Konjac Exfoliating Sponge

I was given the opportunity to test out the Oleavine Beauty Activated Charcoal Facial sponge. This is a nice sized teardrop shaped sponge that is a grey/black color.
When I applied for this promotion I wasn't really sure how a sponge like this worked. You use it by its self, no cleanser needed that activated charcoal in the sponge does the cleansing for you. The sponge is ok, as with any new facial product it made me break out within a few days. I love how soft it makes my skin feel and how it doesn't have a scent. My only complaint is even if you don't squeeze it, it never dries back into it's original shape. I'm not sure if I would purchase this sponge for myself again, although I do like how it makes my skin feel I don't really see the practicality in it or the need.
