~ U-Fit Top Performance Swim Goggles ~

Review

I have always loved swimming ever since I was a little kid but one thing I've always hated was the water getting in my eyes. I always wanted to open my eyes underwater but it hurt my eyes every time I did without goggles. So I started purchasing goggles for when i went swimming the problem with that was they were always so expensive and that's not even for a good pair. They would always break because the straps would be cheap and barely adjustable. So when i was offered to try these out I was excited as I read some reviews and saw that they had been rated highly. I couldn't wait to get my hands on them.

Just from the packaging you could tell they were high quality and unlike anything I've ever had before the googles come in a really unique clear case that opens by twisting a piece of plastic at the top. It's a very durable case that I will be keeping to store my goggles in to prevent them from getting scratched up. The goggles themselves are black and made of a really stretchy but durable rubber material that feels really nice on your face. I found that the suction on these goggles are great they really hug to your eyes which prevents water from getting in. I didn't have any leaking while using them. They bands are really adjustable and would fit just about any sized head comfortably. They also have a clasp at the back that is easy to open but won't open by itself and come undone unintentionally.

Overall, these goggles are the best ones I have ever owned they look really high quality and work better then i could have ever imagined. They fit me perfectly and don't let any water get in. I would definitely recommend these for anyone who enjoys swimming as much as I do. Especially professional swimmers as I sure these would come in handy and they are really affordable for the quality.

Review

I am the type of person that gets amused by things easily that's why I thought that this basketball game would be perfect in my house. Not only for me but I figured that the kids would like it too. Boy was I right about that one it has become a big hit in our house everyone sits down to play with it. I originally got it for my desk where I usually write my reviews/ blogs because sometimes I think better when I am clear headed and that can only happen if I take breaks every once in awhile. So I figured that I would place this on my desk and when I was in need of a small break I would just distract myself with this fun little game. Little did I know that this would be so fun that it would be hijacked by the kids. It's now moved to the kitchen table where everyone can play with it.

This little basketball game is really well made and sturdy which was surprising to me as games like this usually feel really cheap and don't last long. That's not the case with this game it's durable and made of a metal frame but still surprisingly lightweight. It's fully collapsible which means that it's perfect for travelling, taking to the office and makes for easy storage in a drawer or bag. The basketball is made of rubber and is attached by a string so that you don't have to worry about losing the ball which is a really handy feature I'd hate to have to get up and run after the ball after each shot. This game is fairly easy to play, although it takes a little bit of practice to get your shots in. To play you just place your ball on the metal tab move it from side to side to find the perfect spot and then push down and shoot the ball into the hoop. I have found myself wasting hours just playing this game trying to better my shots. This game has definitely improved my hand and eye coordination, and has made writing reviews a lot more fun and easier to do. It's also helped entertain the kids which is something that seemed very hard to do lately, trying to pry them away from their video games seemed like a hopeless dream.

Overall, This is a cute little basketball game that is perfect for everyone of all ages we've had people from 5 - 70 years old playing with this toy. I can see this toy lasting a long time as it's really well made. This is perfect for travelling or just for fun at home or in the office. I would recommend this to everyone as the perfect gift. In fact I will be buying some for Christmas to give around at work as I think it's a great gift idea for the work environment to add a little fun.

Review

I have really wavy hair that gets all frizzy after a shower unless I use a blow dryer and straightener on it.. both of which requires heat so my hair as you can imagine is really dry, and damaged. I was always told by my hair dresser friends that I should be using a heat protection spray on my hair. That was a few years ago when I first started using a hair straightener, I tried quite a few heat sprays but none of them seemed to work well they either smelled really bad, or made my hair feel really oily/ greasy so it wasn't even worth it to me. So I ended up just not using them at all and my hair has suffered for it. That's why when I was offered to test this product out I was excited to try it, If it worked out then great I'd be able to save my damaged hair if it didn't.. then what was one more hair product to test out? It wasn't going to hurt to try.

This product comes in an 8oz Bottle that has a really neat spray nozzle with a button that locks it so that you can't accidentally spray it. I really like this feature because I travel a lot and while travelling I like to take my hair straightener and my blow dryer with me so naturally if I am using a heat spray I'd want to take that with me as well. I'd be able to travel with this product easily without worries of it spilling in my bag. The first thing I noticed about this spray was that it smelled really good. It's like a perfume for your hair which I like because I hate how hair can smell sometimes especially after hair straightening it. Before putting it on my hair I wanted to test the consistency and how it felt on my hands, I noticed that it's an actual spray where as other heat protection sprays I have used before were more of a thicker gel type consistency this is a thin liquid spray. This did leave my hands feeling a bit sticky but definitely not like other sprays I have used in the past. I could tell there was product there but it wasn't overly visible.

I put this on my damp hair after my shower I put it all over my hair, brushed it out and then used my blow dryer to dry my hair. When my hair was dried I could still smell the product as if I had just put it on which was nice. I then used my hair straightener on my hair in order to get it nice and straight. I found that the nice smell of the product suddenly turned into a sort of burnt smell which I didn't really like.. It's not a pretty picture thinking of your hair burning. Through out the day I noticed that my hair seemed more greasy then it usually would have been and I wondered if maybe I put too much spray in it, on the bottle it did say to spray the product throughout your hair so I believed I was doing just that. However it didn't seem right that this product that has so many great reviews would leave your hair greasy and ready for a new wash in only a few hours, Unless some people like that.. who knows. I didn't so I decided I'd try again the next day. This time instead of spraying it all over I just sprayed a few squirts mostly near the ends of my hair and one on top of my head and brushed it through again. This time, it didn't smell as bad and my hair felt silky smooth instead of greasy and gross. With this product less is definitely more which is why I suppose the bottle is as small as it is. With the amount you need at least for my hair I could see this lasting me a good few months with regular use which makes this a great, affordable heat spray. As far as if it's working, It's hard to tell my hair does feel softer and less damaged but I guess i will just have to wait and see what my hair dresser thinks the next time I get my hair cut.

Overall, I like this product it's not the best heat protection spray but it's far better then other I have tried. It made my hair feel soft and silky smooth so that's a plus for me. I don't know if it's all products or just the ones I have tried but they always seem to make my hair smell burnt and I don't like that some are far worse then others and this one was actually the best so far. However with that being said, I would like a heat protection spray to not smell like it's burning my hair. I feel that if it's protecting my hair from the heat and damage it shouldn't smell burnt but that's just my opinion.

Review

Anyone who has ever had a puppy/ dog knows just how messy they can get and not just messy.. smelly whether it being something they have gotten into or just that dog smell that some dogs seem to posses more then others. I have a 10 month old German Shepard named Roxie and she's at that curious/ mischievous age. She's always getting into things like the garbage can or rolling around/ digging in the dirt so I wind up having to give her a bath which for some reason she hates even though she loves playing in the water at the dog park. I don't like giving her too many baths as it dries her skin out and wastes a lot of shampoo which isn't cheap for her as I buy her oatmeal shampoo that's great for her fur to keep it silky smooth. I had been using this spray for dogs which smelled great but it didn't seem to last long and I'd have to respray a few times in a day just to keep her smelling fresh. This became expensive so I was looking for a more affordable option for in between baths so when I was offered to test this product out I was excited to see if it would work for what I needed.

This product was really easy to use it comes in a plastic bottle with a pump top the product is liquid in the bottle but when you squeeze it out into your hand it expands and foams up so a little really goes a long way with this product which is good because the bottle wasn't as big as I was expecting. The bottle holds 8 oz of the soap which really didn't seem like a lot to me until I started using it and realized that it only took a few squirts to cover Roxie with it. I was able to easily rub it into Roxie's fur and it didn't leave it sticky or greasy, In fact it actually made her fur feel really soft and silky which I was happy about. The first thing I noticed about this was that it smelled great as soon as I sprayed it on my hand the aroma filled the house. It only took a few squirts of this product and my dog went from smelling like trash to smelling like a sweet mango like others have mentioned I didn't really get the pomegranate scent which was fine for me as I prefer the mango scent. But I felt it was something worth mentioning because it may matter to some of you. I really like that this product has a long lasting scent that really does last for a few days as long as your dog isn't getting extremely dirty.

I feel that this product should be used more as an in between baths solution as opposed to a replacement to baths as it doesn't seem to clean the dirt that builds up on your dogs fur it just masks the smelly scent. I used this on Roxie around the time when I would usually be bathing her just to test and see how the product would hold up as a bathing alternative for those dogs that don't particularly like water. After using the product she still had dirt in her fur so I decided to bathe her right afterwards and you could see the water was dirty from the dirt build up under her fur. I could see your dogs fur becoming really itchy if you just used this product and didn't bathe them. This would be perfect if you were travelling with your pet and couldn't bathe them, or as mentioned in between baths when they aren't overly dirty just smelly but not as an alternative to baths.

Overall, This product is great it works much better then the dog spray we were using before as it's much cheaper, and last a lot longer so that Roxie can stay fresher for longer. I will definitely be buying more of this stuff when we run out as it really is a life saver in times when I just don't feel like bathing Roxie, and it will be perfect on our trip back home in a few weeks as we will be flying from Texas to Canada which is a 6 -7 hr flight where she will be required to stay in a cage and do her business in there as well. So I can only imagine how she will smell at the end of that.. It will be handy to have this shampoo to give her a quick clean up till we get home.

Review

I love having baths/ showers just as much as the next person but the one thing I have always worried about is slipping in them. You see it in the movies all the time and it doesn't look fun at all. I recently moved into a new place that has a big walk in shower which is great except the floor you. This bath mat claimed to fix all those problems I was having and more so I was excited to be able to receive this product and put it to the test.

I was approved to test the Yellow Anti - Slip Bath Mat. Although a nice soft yellow color I would have preferred a different color that would have matched my bath room a little better. This is a personal preference and nothing to do with the seller or product itself. I do really like the color just doesn't match. I found this bath mat to be larger then I was expecting which was a nice surprise at 70 cm x 40 cm it's much bigger then previous bath mats I have used in the past. This mat is made of silicone which makes for a nice smooth feel on your feet, However I find that it attracts a lot of unwanted hair and dirt. But the silicone also makes the bath mat easy to clean so it balances out, a little soap and water and it will wipe right off and if that doesn't work this bath mat is machine washable ( I tested it) so you can just throw it in the washing machine and wash it that way.

This bath mat feels really thin but durable although it feels flimsy it's not it's rather flexible and durable which means it will be good for quite some time, I found that the suction cups on the bottom of the bat mat worked as they should and were really secure. The company recommends that you wet them first before setting the bat mat up to be used I found that this did in fact work better. Wetting the bottom of the mat/ or just placing a little bit of water in the bottom of the tub provided for a more secure grip to the tub floor so that you're less likely to slip.

Overall, I did really like this bat mat it wasn't slippery when it got wet, it stuck easily to the floor and didn't slip while in use. It was also easy to remove and it provided a more secure and safer shower experience for me. I would recommend this to everyone as it's a great addition to any bathroom and it makes it safer, No more slipping in the shower for me!

I am the type of person that really likes to have a clean car, you'd think that it would be an easy task to accomplish right? Wrong.. People are always eating in the car, leaving garbage, whatever it may be the car never stays clean for long. Usually I just have several grocery bags lying around to throw trash in, but see the problem with that is those move around or they get ripped and then you end up with trash all over the place again. So when I was offered to test out this garbage can from Drive I was super excited, it was exactly what I needed for my car. 

This garbage can is the perfect way to keep your car clean, It's waterproof which means that you can put garbage in here that may have spillage. This garbage can also doubles as a cooler if you wanted to use it to keep your drinks cold or as a place to hold snacks on a road trip. With this garbage can you get 20 liners so that you can easily dispose of the trash by just pulling out the full bag and putting another one in. There is a little mesh pocket on the side that is great for holding the extra liners for easy access while on the road. You can put this trash can anywhere, It can hang from the back of your seat, off your door, or if you're like me just place it on the floor as it's sturdy enough that it won't fall and spill the garbage all over the place. 

Overall, This Garbage can is a great addition to my car and would be perfect for anyone that likes a clean car. It's sturdy and durable and is of high quality for a trash can, It holds quite a bit of trash for it's size. It's really simple to use and has made my car a lot cleaner then it was.

I don't know if it's just me or if it's everyone but I can never seem to have enough earphones on hand because they all seem to break on me. I don't know if it's just bad luck or I just haven't found the right earphones yet who knows. All I know is that they seem to not last very long so an extra pair is great to have around.. That's what these were for .. an extra pair. I didn't have much hope for these because I had never heard of the company and the price was too good to be true in my opinion but I was offered to test them out so I figured what the heck an extra pair of earphones never hurt.

From the moment I opened the box I could tell that these were good quality earphones. From the professional packaging of the box to the product itself everything screamed high end. The earphones I chose are pink and white and the cord is a reflective silver color. The cord is a nice flat, flexible cord which is something I LOVE about these earphones. Most of the time the common problem I have with earphones is that they get bent and the wires inside break and then they stop working. That's a lot less likely to happen with these because of the flat wire. The cord is the perfect length as well not too long and not too short. These earphones also have a mic in them which is clear and off good quality, If i receive calls while using these earphones I can clearly hear people and they can clearly hear me. There is also a answer call button which is nice for quickly answering calls without having to pull out your phone, this button also stops and starts the music. The only thing these earphones are missing would be a volume control button.

I really liked how these earphones fit into my ear, I've never had earphones before that had the ear hooks on them so that was a new experience for me. At first I didn't really like it because they hurt my ears but then I played around with the extra ear hooks/ ear buds that were provided in the box till I found the perfect size that fit my ears. It was nice that I had the option to change these earphones so that they were better suited for me. This is a nice feature that I wish more earphone companies did. I grew to like the ear hooks as they provided a more secure fit in my ear. I can run/ move around freely without worrying that they will fall out. These earphones are noise cancelling, and have amazing sound quality they also get really loud for those times when you just want to block the world out and immerse yourself in music.

Overall, These earphones have become my new favorite instead of just an "extra pair" I have been using them everyday with no problems at all. They sound great, they look amazing and even better they are so comfortable. These are a great pair of earphones if you are looking for something of high quality but without the high cost that comes with it. I would definitely recommend these earphones in fact I plan to buy my husband a pair as he's always stealing mine. These would make the perfect gift for anyone really... because everyone could use a good pair of earphones.

Review

I have never really used a diffuser before even though it has been recommend that I try one out for my hair I just never got around to it. I had heard that diffusers were good for provides curls to already naturally wavy hair and help reduce frizz which I needed a lot. I have thin, wavy hair so trying to give my hair any sort of body is a task in itself. Which is why when I was offered to test out this diffuser from Xtava I was more then happy to oblige.

The main thing I liked about this diffuser is also a bit of a drawback to me at least, I have looked online at several videos of people using diffusers and the most common use is having it pressed to your head and being able to "massage" the diffuser into your scalp to help provide curls. You can't do that successfully with this diffuser because of it's collapsible feature. I love that this is so compact and easily stored when not in use or for travel. What I don't like is that the moment any sort of real pressure is applied this diffuser collapses while in use. This means I have to adapt the way I use this diffuser and not apply as much pressure as one would usually use when using a diffuser. This diffuser is made of Silicone which is great because it means that it's able to fit on a wide range of hair dryers which is handy for travel if you didn't want to take your hair dryer you could just take your diffuser and use it on a hotel hair dryer without any issues. Another thing I like about it being made out of silicone is that the diffuser itself does not get hot, I've had other attachments that were made out of plastic and by the time you were done doing your hair it would be so hot you could barely touch it. 

My hair always seems to get so dry and frizzy even before using hair tools on them, so you can just imagine how dried out my hair feels after blow-drying. That's why a lot of people had recommend that I use a diffuser to help reduce the damage my blow dryer was doing to my hair and provide more body. After using this diffuser for 2 weeks now I can say that I really do notice a difference in my hair. My hair is a lot less frizzy now and you can noticeably see how healthier and shiny my hair is. It doesn't feel as dry as it usually did and I've changed nothing except using this diffuser while blow-drying my hair. My hair is a lot more manageable now and It did add a bit of body to my hair, It added more depth to my already natural curls. 

Overall, This diffuser works great the only problem that I have with it is that it collapses too easily, which isn't that big a deal it just means you have to change the way you would normally use a diffuser. Aside from that it works perfectly, it's compact, travel friendly and easily fits on my hair dryer. It has made my hair noticeably healthier and easier to mange.

Review

I have a hair dryer as I'm sure most of us do I got it a few years ago, but the thing is I don't really use it that is unless I absolutely need to dry my hair. The reason for this is that I find that it just simply takes too long to dry my hair, why waste that time when I could just let it air dry right? I thought all hair dryers were the same and that they just took forever. When I was offered to test out this Hair Dryer I wasn't overly excited because of the mind frame I had set myself in. However I went over to their amazon site and saw all the great reviews, All of which stated "fast drying". Which got me thinking maybe it's not all hair dryers, maybe it's just mine..

The hair dryer came in this beautiful black box and included a concentrator nozzle which is a great little tool that helps you get heat directly in certain spots. My first impression of this hair dryer was that it looked to be a high quality hair dryer something you'd see in a professional salon. The cord is much longer then my current hair dryer it's around 7'3" and is an industrial type cord with a surge protector which just confirms my first thoughts of it being of salon quality. The hair dryer is a sleek black plastic that is very solid and durable but still manages to be lightweight and easy to handle. I really like the variety of heat settings that is provided on this hair dryer it has 2 speeds and 3 heat settings ( cold, warm and hot!) which means this hair dryer can be used on many different hair types, It also has a cold shot button that locks in your style which I found to be pretty handy.

Now the question I'm sure you've all been waiting for.. Did it work? Yes it did!! I am pleasantly surprised that the hair dryer did in fact work as advertised, It's simply amazing this hair dryer gets way hotter then my previous one did which may have been the reason why it always took me so long to dry my hair. But not with this one it really gets the job done and fast. Before it would take me 30 mins or more to get my hair even close to being dry. Now I can have my hair dried and styled within 10 mins which is a big change. I actually WANT to dry my hair now because it doesn't take that long and my hair feels better and more controlled after using this hair dryer. I find when I use the concentrator nozzle that my hair is less frizzy and tamed. Before I wouldn't have been able to leave the house after blow drying my hair without flat ironing it first as it was just a frizzy, untamable mess.

Overall, I am blown away with this product I don't see how I've ever gotten along without it before now. It has made getting ready in the morning a simpler task, My hair dries within minutes which means that I can now safely go back to taking showers in the morning without worrying about time. This hair dryer has quickly replaced my old one and is a welcomed part of my daily routine. I would happily recommend this product to all my friends and family as I love it. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this product again and I know it would make a great gift for any woman.

Review

I have gotten several Xtava products recently and I have to say that I am very impressed with this company. There products have surpassed my expectations more then I could have ever hoped for. I have always loved to curl my hair but could never manage to find a curling rod that would actually work for me and my hair. You always see in the magazines beautiful women with those nice big curls and I wanted that for my hair. But it was hard to find something that could provide me with those curls while still being affordable. That's why when I got the opportunity to try out this Xtava Auto Rotating Curling Iron I was so excited. Not only was this my first ever auto styler that I have ever used but it was a;so a chance to finally find a good quality curling iron that would work for my hair or at least that's what I hoped would happen.

As with any Xtava Product that I have received so far it came in a beautiful black box, inside was the curling rod, a heat resistant glove and some instructions on how to use the product. Without even trying the product, just looking at the curling iron you can tell it's a good quality product. I wasn't quite sure what to expect out of this curling rod as I have never used an auto rotating curling iron before. I was used to how we used to do it, the old fashion way of having to do it ourselves. Manually curling the hair, holding your arm up. It was exhausting and might I add I never did ever get the hang of it, no matter how hard I tried I could never successfully curl my own hair without completely messing it up or burning myself. I would always need someone else to come and do it for me which meant curling my hair was something that happened once in a blue moon. 

The first thing that I noticed about this curling rod was it's long 8 ft black swivel cord, which is a big deal for me. I can't stand hair product that have short cords. There is nothing worse then going to plug up your hair tool and finding out that the cord is too short to reach the outlet, or you wind up getting tangled up in the cord as you're trying to do your hair turning every which way as your cord bends and gets ruined, it's no fun and we've all experienced it. Once I plugged it in I noticed the crystal clear LCD digital display, which was very easy to read. I like the fact that I could chose between 11 different heat settings ranging from 210 to 430 degrees which means this product can be adjusted to fit different hair types. This curling rod heats up within minutes and it does get really hot so I am thankful to Xtava for providing a nice heat resistant glove to protect my hand while using this product. 

As far as the curler itself it has a really nice salon quality feel to it, It's solid and feels durable but still lightweight, it's a sleek black color and very professional looking. It had a built in hair clip to hold your hair steady while using the auto curl function. I have to admit when I first start using this curling iron I was having a bit of trouble with the auto curling function although it's very neat and unique it is also very challenging. It really does take a little bit of getting used too and as others have mentioned I would practice without heat first as to prevent yourself for possibly seriously burning yourself. There was quite a few times where I would press the button too much and it would curl too tight to my scalp and would end up burning me. Once I was able to get the hang of using the auto curl function it made things a lot easier.

Overall, This auto curler is amazing I can now manage to curl my hair myself and I find that this product saves me a lot of time, because with a press of a button I can have beautiful curls within minutes. I love this Auto Curling Rod and would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to find a easier, faster way to curl their hair. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this product again and it would make the perfect gift for any woman. This is a great way to get those magazine curls without having to go to a salon, you get the professional quality but at an affordable price.

Review

I was super excited to get to review this product as I have never heard of or tried anything quite like this hair straightener ever before. I've have only ever had one hair straightener in my life and it cost me quite a bit and that was several years ago. So as you can imagine that hair straightener although still in fairly good shape ( I take really good care of my hair supplies)  is starting to lose it's touch, It's hair straightening abilities have seen better days as it's been through hell and back. I'm rather adventurous and find myself wanting to try the next latest trend quite often, so the thought of switching things up and trying something new was something I was overjoyed to do after so many years of the same boring routine with the same boring hair straightener.

The hair straightener comes in an amazingly beautiful matte finish black box, upon opening you see inside a black zippered heat proof bag which held the straightener. This packaging was beautifully done and just speaks wonders about the product. It shows they take pride in their products and their customers. First thing I noticed out of the package was just the overall appeal of this hair straightener it looked like something you'd see at a salon and not in my living room. The straightener itself is well put together. It's bigger then my other straightener that I have but still fairly light weight and durable. It has a green light up digital display that makes it easier to see which is different but something I really liked about this product. The hair straightener has a long 360 degree swivel cord which is a big bonus for me because that means I can move around a bit more and not be worried that I'm going to bend my cord and ruin it which gives me more freedom when doing my own hair as well as someone else's. The hair straightener takes about 2-3 mins to heat up which is a bit longer then what I was used to with my other hair straightener but still fairly quick. It also gets way hotter then my previous hair straightener which is great as it makes it easier to straightener my thick wavy hair in less strokes which means less damage to my hair.

This hair straightener has 2 inch plates which are a tad bit bigger then I am used to so it took a little bit of adjusting and getting used to for me to be able to straighten my hair with ease. I found that with the bigger plates I could easily fit more of my hair between the plates which allowed me to get my hair straightened in less time, which is a good thing for me at least in the morning when getting ready for work I want to take as little time as possible, the more time I have to sleep in the better for everyone. However with that being said the bigger plates do make it a lot harder to style my hair as I feel I don't have as much control with it, and that it's harder to grip. I have never used an infrared hair straightener before so this was a new experience for me. I had read that it's better for you hair as it locks in the natural moisture in your hair which increases the shine and minimizes the heat damage done to your hair. I have noticed that my hair is a lot more smooth and shiny and it does stay straight throughout the day without getting frizzy as it usually would have. As far as my hair not being as damaged from the heat I haven't used the product long enough to tell. However I will say this I don't smell that awful hair burning smell as I have in the past with other hair straightening product I have used. So that's a step in the right direction I'd assume.

                                       Before

                                                                              After

Overall, This hair straightener has gone above and beyond what I could have ever expected, as you can see from the packaging to the product itself it's beautifully designed. You're getting a professional, hair salon product for a fraction of the price. It works as advertised and has made my hair look and feel much better. I would recommend this product to everyone I know and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again for myself or even as a gift. If you're looking for a new hair straightener that works great, and provides salon quality at home for an affordable price then this is the product for you.
