Garlic Press by Orblue-Review



My old Garlic Press had seen better days and I had actually stopped using it and starting buying the pre-cut garlic in the jar but I really missed the great taste that can only come from fresh garlic.  So, I jumped at the chance to do a review of the Garlic Press by Orblue!
The first thing you notice about the Garlic Press by Orblue is the fantastic quality, you can feel that it's made from 100% stainless steel.  It also fits really well in your hand and feels really comfortable.  My old Garlic Press was from Ikea and while it worked okay it definitely was not at the quality level that this one from Orblue is and was not as comfortable.
The Orblue Garlic Press is also really easy to use, but the best part is that it's super easy to clean.  I just take out the remaining garlic shell and rinse!  When it looks like it needs a little more cleaning I just put a little dish soap on it, hand washed it and leave it out to dry.



If you are in the market for a new Garlic Press this one by Orblue is a great choice!  You can purchase the Garlic Press by Orblue on Amazon.com.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com.  Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

**ChillaVino Wine Chiller Stick-Review**



How cool is this?  I have been wanting one of these Wine Chiller Sticks ever since I saw it on Amazon because I thought it was such a cool idea so imagine my excitement when ChillaVino sent me one to review for them!  Yeah, I was just a little excited to say the least!
I really love it when you get a product that you have had your eye on for awhile and it fulfills all the expectations you had for it & more, it really is the best feeling.  The Wine Chiller Stick by ChillaVino has exceeded all my expectations, I just think it's the coolest product ever.  It also comes in this stylish, decorative box that you can use to keep the Wine Chiller Stick in when you are not using it.  

The Wine Chiller Stick is composed of 3 pieces, the chilling rod maintains the wine chilled, the decanting pourer aerates the wine for a full flavor taste and a dripless pour to avoid any mess and the stopper is used to cork the wine.  It works great for white, red & rose wines since it provides the right balance to create the optimal temperature and it brings those to life with the perfect chill.


The Wine Chiller Stick by ChillaVino is really a great product and I have really been enjoying it.  Plus, it a great conversation piece, everyone wants to know what it is, where I got it and how much it costs!  I am sure you, my readers, would like to know the same thing so here is all of that info...

You can purchase the ChillaVino Wine Chiller Stick on Amazon.com for only $14.50!  I also think this would make a great gift idea and I already have plans to get a few for upcoming birthday's & of course Christmas!

*** Must Have Monday*** Suki® Exfoliate Foaming Cleanser


This Suki® Exfoliate Foaming Cleanser is AMAZING!  I received it as a sample in my Birchbox subscription about 5 months ago and I loved it!  I wanted to purchase it right away but I made myself wait until I finished up a few other products first.  Why do I love it so much?  First of all, it's great for all skin types but more than that it's because it's a two-in-one cleanser & exfoliant AND it's all natural!  It's made with natural lemongrass and chamomile and synthetic-free cosmecutical actives to thoroughly clean skin.  Then is uses the alpha hydroxy acids in raw sugar to gently buff away dead layers and excess oils without stripping off your skin’s natural moisture.
To use all you do is wet your hands with warm water and scoop about a dime-sized amount of the cleanser out with your fingers, a little goes a long way.  Rub it between your hands to activate the foaming tendency before gently massaging your face in circular motions.  Rinse and pat dry and Voila!  Your skin will feel super clean, soft and smooth all at the same time.  It's magic!
So, it's my pick for my "Must Have Monday" pick and I am using my Birchbox points to purchase my first full size jar and I can't wait until it's delivered!
Have you tried the Suki Cleanser before?  If, so I would love to hear what you think about it so leave me a comment below...

Adovia Sulfur Soap 100% Natural-Review



So, it's like this.  I am 41 and I still get breakouts!  Thankfully, they are few & far between but because I also still have oily skin I find myself still needing to use products that help me out for those issues when I need it.  I am already an established fan of Adovia products and have reviewed a few their great products so I was happy to add another product to the list and try out their Adovia Sulfur Soap for Acne, Blackheads and Oily Skin as well.
I keep the Adovia Sulfur Soap for Acne, Blackheads and Oily Skin in my shower so it's there for me to use it when I feel like my skin needs that extra little something to heal a breakout or help with any excessive oiliness.  I even use it with my Clarisonic,  I just turn it on and run it over the bar of soap a few times, works perfect!  In the last few weeks it has helped cut down on the healing time of the few breakouts that I got and also helped dry up some of the excess oil that I was dealing with.  My daughter has been using it too and it has really helped her skin as well.  It looks like we will be adding the Adovia Sulfur Soap for Acne, Blackheads and Oily Skin to the "Must Have" list in our house!


You can purchase the Adovia Sulfur Soap and check out their other great products at AdoviaSpa.com.  You can also find it at Amazon.com.

Bifidus Best Advanced Probiotic Supplement by Alice Foods-Review



Probiotics seem to be all the buzz lately and everyone seems to be benefiting from them one way or another.  I have been taking this Advanced Probiotic from Alice Foods for a few weeks now and I love how it just makes me feel like I am doing myself a favor!  Plus, I have been able to fight off a really nasty cold that was going around (Love back to school season, or as I like to call it...back to flu season)!
Advanced Probiotics are helpful because they improve the function of your immune system, reduce populations of harmful microorganisms by competing for resources and provide numerous digestive support benefits as well.


The Advanced Probiotic formula is made with only the highest quality ingredients and was designed to promote digestive system wellness, support the body’s internal microbial balance for digestive tract health and improve overall immune system health.
Probiotics containing more than 5.06 billion CFU per serving are considered new generation, high dose products. They are more potent, more effective than the old generation of probiotics (containing less than 1 billion CFU per serving). Bifidus Best Advanced Probiotic formula also has acid-resistant strains and a new delivery technology which protects the strains in stomach acid – so the difference is noticed very quickly.

For more information on Bifidus Best Advanced Probiotic Supplement make sure you check out their website and you can also purchase Bifidus Best Advanced Probiotic Supplement on Amazon.com.
