Product Review: Trunk Organizer and Trash Bag Combo from Container Heaven

We recently bought a new SUV & I love having this Trunk Organizer from Container Heaven to keep everything properly stored & organized. I also like having a way to keep my shopping bags from sliding all over the back.



This organizer has nice sturdy sides with removable bases that keep it standing straight without sagging. There are two large compartments or you can use the included divider to make 2 smaller compartments on one side. There are also mesh pockets for keeping smaller items from rolling around or getting lost. If you only need to use one side of the organizer, you can use the clips to close the other side & when it is not being used at all you can fold the whole thing flat so that it doesn’t take up a lot of room. It is very easy to wipe clean with a damp rag.



This also comes with a trash container that can be clipped onto the headrest of the front seat to keep your car nice & tidy. This container is also easy to clean with a damp rag.

Product Review: Ultrasonic Aromatherapy Mist Humidifier from Seneo

I use essential oils for many purposes every day & diffusing them is one way that helps my family stay healthy. I have used this Ultrasonic Aromatherapy Mist Humidifier from Seneo almost every day since I have had it.



This diffuser comes with a power cord, measuring cup & User Manual. Just take the top off of the diffuser, fill it with water without going over the fill line, add you favorite essential oils, put the top back on, plug it in & you’re ready to go. There are buttons on the front of the unit to turn on the misting & the lights. WIth the Mist button, you can choose to run the unit for 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours or continuous spraying as well as choosing between light & heavy misting. With the Light button, you can choose to have the lights cycle automatically through all of the colors or choose just one color plus choosing the brightness of the light or not to have light at all. I like that I can run the mist without having the light on because I sometimes use this on my bedside table at night & don’t want extra light that will keep me awake. When this unit is running, it is completely silent so I’m glad that it turns itself off automatically when it runs out of water.


When I use this unit in the bedroom, it only takes 2-3 drops of essential oil to fill the room with scent but when I use it the living room it takes more because it’s a bigger space. How much you use will also depend on the strength of the scent that you choose.




Product Information:
  • 300ml Capacity & Output: It holds enough water to run for well over 6 hours, produces a powerful mist, and has several therapy functions.
  • Aroma Humidifier Function: Use ultrasonic movement to produce a vapor that fills your room with wonderful smells and delivers the beneficial power of the oil to everyone in your house.
  • Whisper-Quiet Ultrasonic Operation: Ultrasonic whisper-quiet, relieves depress and have a better sleep at night.
  • AUTO Shut-off Function: It automatically stops working when water used up, which ensures energy-saving and safety.
  • 7 Changing LED Light: Great night light for young children scared of the dark at bedtime.

Unboxing....Target Beauty Box #TargetStyle #SweetTreats #BeautyBox

It's been a while since I've had a Beauty Box from Target. The last one that I got was in either October or November. I missed out on the holiday boxes in December & I really wanted the boxes that were offered in January but I wasn't fast enough & I missed out on all of those, so when Target offered this Sweet Treats box last week, I jumped right on it!


Target ships their Beauty Box in a black box with their logo on the lid. The products came wrapped in pink tissue paper & the theme of the box is Sweet Treats. An information card is included that tells all about the products plus a coupon for $3 off of any beauty purchase of $15 or more at Target or Target.com. These are the products that came in this box:


Soapbox Coconut Oil Shampoo (2 ounce sample)
Soapbox Coconut Oil Conditioner (2 ounce sample)
Mayfair Soap Foundry Body Creme in Sea Lily Jasmine (1 ounce sample)
Vera Wang Embrace Eau de Toilette (.04 ounce tester sample)
L'Oreal Boost It Air Blown Texture Mist (full-size $3.99)
Skinfix Lip Repair Balm (full-size $4.99)
EcoTools Ecopouf Mini Sponge (full-size $1.97)
Laneige BB Cushion (.21 ounce samples of Light, Medium & Medium Dark + puff)
Derma e Hydrating Night Creme (1/2 ounce sample)
Incocco Nail Polish Applique in Brilliant Burst (full-size $6.99)
(prices from Target.com)


The full-size products have a total value of $17.94 and I only paid $7 for this Beauty Box with free shipping so it is a great deal because Target advertised this box as a $35 value. Target Beauty Boxes are not a subscription box so you pretty much have to stalk their website watching for the next one to be offered. I've gotten several of these boxes & so far I have really liked all of the products.

I'll be watching & waiting for the next Target Beauty Box & I'll give you a heads up!

Product Review: 6-Piece Egyptian Cotton Towel Set by Amor & Amore

I’m one of those people who keeps towels until they are worn out before I will replace them. We are really happy to have this 6-piece Egyptian Cotton towel set by Amor & Amore.


I chose the Navy Blue towel set but they are also available in Ivory and Gray. This set comes with 2 big bath towels (30"x56"), 2 hand towels (18"x30") & 2 washcloths (13"x13"). 



The towels are very thick & very absorbent. The first time that I washed them, they did shed quite a bit in the washer but I did not follow the specific washing instructions. The tag says to wash in cold water on the delicate cycle & hang to dry. I washed them with a load of clothes in warm water on the regular cycle & then put them in the dryer on low heat. 



The colors did not run in the wash & they dried fairly quickly in the dryer. After being laundered, they came out feeling just as soft as they were when I received them.


This towel set looks great in my bathroom & I will be putting a few of my old towels in the rag box to use for washing the car & other outside chores.

Product Information:


  • 6-piece towel set includes 2 bath towels(30x56inches), 2 hand towels(18X30inches), and 2 washcloths(13X13inches)
  • Lightweight,quickly absorbs moisture
  • Fade-resistant,designed with a classic and simple pique border
  • Great softness and smooth with 100% Egyptian Cotton
  • Machine washable for convenient and easy care

This Egyptian Cotton 6-Piece Towel Set can be purchased on Amazon: http://goo.gl/8YohfR

I received this product for the purpose of testing and review. Regardless, I only recommend products that I personally use and believe will be good for my readers. The opinions expressed above are 100% my own based on my personal experience and use of the product.

Unboxing....Ipsy Glam Bag January 2016 #januaryglambag #ipsy

The theme for the Ipsy January Glam Bag is All Eyes On You. "Keep your eyes on the prize! From must-have products to prettify your peepers - like theBalm's cult-fave eyeliner - to on-the-go beauty essentials. January is all about a seriously standout look."


These are the products that I received in my January Glam Bag:

City Color Cosmetics Eyeshadow Trio in Falling Leaves
theBalm Cosmetics Mr. Write (Now) in Jack B. Bronze
Beau Gachis Paris Smudge Brush

Hey Honey Skincare Open Your Eyes Eye Contour Lifting Fluid
Mitchel and Peach English Leaf Body Cream

My favorite products this month are the eyeshadow trio & the body cream. I love eyeshadow & this trio of colors are what I would normally wear and the body cream smells amazing!

Ipsy is a monthly subscription box which comes with full-size or deluxe-sized products plus a makeup bag. The cost is $10 each month with free shipping to the US & Canada. It is delivered via USPS. I think it's well worth the money that I spend & a great way to try new products & add to your makeup collection. Ipsy sends out multiple variations of each Glam Bag so my review is the products that I received. Yours could be different & I love seeing what everyone else gets in their bag.

So. That's my Glam Bag. What did you get in yours?

This is another great box! I love the graphics on the little zipper bag & I hope this subscription box will continue shipping in cute bags. I love the lipstick & eye shadows because they are all shades that I already wear & the earrings are very pretty so they will be worn a lot. I have a lot of makeup brushes but can always use another because I can't seem to find one when I need it & I always love trying new hair products.
