3-in-1 LED Vehicle Emergency Flashlight -
$19.99

This flashlight weather resistant, industrial grade, durable and versatile.  It has 18 white LEDs and 11 red LEDs.  It requires 3AAA batteries and the bulbs can last more than 100,000 hours. 

I love this flashlight.  It is small enough to carry around easily yet it is durable enough I don't have to worry about breaking it easily.  It has 3 lights, Cree, white and red.  The first setting is the Cree.  It is surprisingly bright.  The second setting is the white.  This light comes from the handle area.  It is bright and illuminates a larger area than the first setting.  The third setting is the red light.  These red lights blink and is great to use in an emergency situation. 

I am glad I got this flashlight.  It is the perfect flashlight to carry in my car.

Foundation Brush -
$11.95

I have to say I have never used a brush to apply my foundation.  I have used a sponge, a pad, and my fingers but never a brush.  I have to say I was missing out!  I love not having to get the foundation on my hands.  The brush makes it easy to apply as little or as much foundation as you need.  I love that the brush soaks up the foundation so the foundation spreads easily and goes further. 

This brush is made from top grade synthetic fiber materials that help to prevent shedding. This product is also hypoallergenic, cruelty free, and vegan friendly. 

Yalmeh products are great and the company offers a 90 day money back guarantee. 

This brush is easy to use and easy to clean.  This foundation brush gives you perfect coverage with no mess.  You can't go wrong with this product.

Fractionated Coconut Oil -
16 oz./$14.95

Coconut oil is extracted from fruit of palm tree.  Fractionated coconut oil is made by a process of hydrolysis and then steam distilled.  Fractionated oil has been processed to create a shelf stable oil. 

The process it goes through after extraction is what determines if it is fractionated or not.  Fractionated oil had had triglycerides removed which makes it less oily than virgin coconut oil and "generally a better bet for use in skin care products."  It also has a higher concentration of capric and caprylic acid and thus is a better antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and disinfectant. 

Fractioned coconut oil is used for many things including therapeutic benefits, a great moisturizer, hair growth, aromatherapy, and it is gentle on skin.

I love coconut oil!  It has so many uses, I am still discovering new ways to use it.  So far I have used this coconut oil mostly as a moisturizer.  It feels great on and does not leave my skin greasy.  It moisturizes very well and is gentle enough to use everyday.

Capo -
$22.97

My son has been asking for a capo for a little while now.  I didn't understand what I capo was or why he needed it until I received this product.

So what is a capo?  It is a device that is used on the neck of a stringed instrument such as a guitar, banjo or ukulele to shorten the playable length of the strings which raises the pitch. 

This capo is stylish, and made of professional grade alloy.  It works on either of his guitars which is great.  It is small and easy for my son to use with just one hand.  When isn't using it he just clips it on the end of his guitar for easy access when he needs it.  After hearing his play various songs using this capo, I can see why he said he needed one.  It makes it easier for him to play certain songs.

My son is a beginner guitarist and he loves this product.  For being his first capo, I think we choose the right product.  I think he will get a lot of use out of this product for a long time to come.

Exfolimate -
2 exfoliators/$29.99

I had never heard of such a product until I received this product.  I have to say not only had I never heard of this type of product but that I was very unsure and intimidated by this product.  After reading the directions however I realized that this product is easier to use than anticipated. 

This product comes with 2 exfoliators, one for the face and the other for the body.  The directions say while showering or bathing to "fasten strap around wrist and gently glide Exfolimate with slight pressure at 90 degrees along the contours of your skin in a slow consistent motion."   Its really as easy as that.  A little intimidating at first however as long as you don't apply to much pressure its painless.

This exfoliator uses "a gentle, smooth edge with innovative micro grooves to slide along your skin, releasing dirt and oil embedded beneath the surface.  This improves tone and texture while reducing pore size, oily and dry patches and other signs of aging."

I am so glad I decided to try this product.  It is easy to use and has made the skin on my legs soft and silky.  I have used it prior to apply a sunless tanning solution and it seems to have made a difference in the way that tanning solution covered.  This exfolimate tool takes exfoliating to a new level.  I love it.

Vitamin C Facial Toner -
4 fl. oz./$17.49

Vitamin C is an "essential nutrient that is vital to developing skin health and youthfulness. This antioxidant is needed in order for the body to produce collagen, which is what keeps your skin elastic and supple."
This toner also contains "powerful astringents - such as Witch Hazel and Tea Tree Oil - which purify your skin by cleaning and tightening pores, shrinking their appearance." "The MSM in the formula works to penetrate your pores to increase their elasticity."

I love that this toner is a spray.  It makes it easy to apply and I don't have to get anything on my hands.  As soon as I spray this toner on my skin, it feels cool and calming.  It smells good and the scent is not too strong which is a big plus in my book.

Toners are important to minimize pores, balance the pH, add protection and moisturize.  I am very pleased with this toner.  It is better than any toner I have ever tried.

Cellulite Cream -
5 fl. oz./$23.75

This cellulite cream has Retinol, Caffeine, Vitamin C & B5, Cocoa Butter & Shea Butter.

I opened this and applied a small amount on my upper thighs. I noticed that this product was not nearly as thick as I had expected. It absorbs easily which makes it easy to get dressed quickly after applying it.

I have been using this product only once a day for about two weeks. I have to say that as far as the appearance of cellulite, this product so far has not made much of a difference. I probably need to continue using this product to see those results. I can however feel my skin is tighter after applying and overall feels softer. I hope to see more results with continued use of this product.

I can say though that my skin feels soft and hydrated.  I have no doubt that I will see results with continued use.  Not only is the product affordable but the company provides a Lifetime Money Back Guarantee so you really can't go wrong.

Insta natural

Retinol -
1 fl. oz/$23.75

First off, I love Instanatural products!  I love the dropper.  The dropper makes it easy to get just enough to cover your face.  I only use one or two drops to cover nicely.

This product is light and absorbs quickly.  I love that because I like to be able to apply make up over the top.

The ingredients include 2.5% retinol, 20% vitamin C, 10% hyaluronic acid, and vitamin E.  These are some great ingredients that offer many benefits including anti-aging, acne treatment, hydration and anti oxidant properties.100% money back guarantee. 

I don't have many wrinkles at this point in my life, but I can say that I notice a tightening of my skin after applying this product.  I do have a problem with redness on my chin and nose and after using this product for just a little bit, I can see a difference in the appearance of my skin. 

I love this product.  If you are interested in trying this product go to

Peppermint Oil -
4 fl. oz./$19.95

I had heard before about the use of peppermint oil for medical conditions such as indigestion and heartburn.  I did not know that peppermint oil is also good for respiratory infections and coughs.

My daughter and I have been sick recently with head colds.  After reading this, I decided to give it a try.  I added some of this peppermint oil to my shower as a diffuser.  I have to say, I was surprised to see just how strong it was.  Within just minutes my daughter had stuff just pouring out her nose.  It felt great to breathe it in, and I could definitely tell it was helping to relieve my congestion. 

Other uses for peppermint oil include the relieve of headaches, reduce dandruff and lice and help reduce joint and arthritis pain, and repels rodents and insects such as fleas, tics, flies, rats, mosquitos, mice, midges, spiders, bed bugs, ants and roaches. 

I will definitely try this product to help repel spiders! That is amazing, I hope it works!

I love that this product is 100% natural and non-toxic.  And the company offers a 100% lifetime money back guarantee.

Glow 2 Go -
20 Towelettes/$12.49

I am very fair skinned so I am always looking for new ways to get that sun kissed look without having to actually tan.  I have tried sprays, lotions, airbrush, and even spray tan booths. 

I have never tried a towelette, in fact I had never heard of a self tan towellete before this product.  I have to say, however that these towelettes work just as good as any of the above mentioned products.

These towelettes are big enough to cover half your body but not so big that they are clumsy to use.  These are easy to apply, cover great and if your careful they do not leave streaks. 

I love the convenience of this product.  Like other products, you can order online and have it shipped directly to your house.  I love that I don't have to worry about trying to find the time, or spending money on gas to drive to a tanning salon.  This product is great for at home or on the go and the price is comparable.

After you apply the towelette, the instructions say to wait 10 minutes before getting dressed.  I was happy to see that it dries much faster than that and it does not seem to remain sticky like other self tanners I have tried. 

So far, I have only tried this product on my legs.  If I continue using these for my legs only, I estimate that this box of 20 will last me close to two months.  That is pretty impressive for the price. 
I took a few pictures to show you the difference in color.  For these pictures, I only used the towelette on my right leg.  You can see after only 2 applications that my right leg is darker in color and has a sun kissed warm glow to it compared to my left leg.

After 1 application
After 2 applications

I would say I would most likely go with one more application and then per the directions use 1-2 towelettes per week to keep that color. 

I would recommend giving this product a try.  You really can't go wrong because the company offers 100% money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the results.

Precision Eyelash Curler -
$12.75

I, sadly enough, have been using the same old boring eye lash curler for far too long.  I was so excited to get this product. 

First off, its pink and black.  What girl wouldn't love that?  It is much more appealing than my old boring stainless steel one. 

Secondly, this eyelash curler has these great comfy grips.  Again, a major improvement over my old curler. 

Third, and most importantly, is that it actually works amazing.  I couldn't believe the difference in the way my eye lashes looked after using this product.  They looked longer and definitely had more a curl. 

I can't say enough about this product!  I am so glad I finally have a new eyelash curler.  Its easy to use, comfortable and it really works.  This product also comes with two refillable pads and the company offers a lifetime money back guarantee.

Lemon Oil -
4 fl. oz./$17.95

I have always been a fan or using essential oils for various things.  However, I have never tried lemon oil before now.  I was not sure what to use lemon oil for but I love the scent so I figured I could find a use for it.

After I got this product, I had to do some research to see what to use it for.  I discovered that lemons are known for their ability to clean toxins from your body, support healthy skin, and support your circulatory system.  It also has an uplifting scent that is good for your mood.

So far I have used this mainly as a diffuser.  It adds an amazing scent to the room and definitely gives me a pick me up.  I also read that lemon oil is an amazing stain remover.  My 2 year old daughter had spilled something on her dress, and after reading this I decided to give it a try.  I was surprised to see that this lemon oil actually lifted the stain and left her dress smelling great!  I was amazed.  I had tried soaking it with soap, I tried oxyclean, and a few other well known stain removers to no avail.  Who would have thought to try lemon oil?  I am so glad I did!

I have read about many other interesting uses for lemon oil.  I am so excited I got this product! I can already say that this product will become a great addition to my list of everyday essential oils.

Auto Seat Back Protector -
$9.99

I love Dot to Dot products and this product is no exception!  This product is a kick mat that attaches to the headrest and protects your seats from kids that like to put their feet on the seat in front of them.   I however, have decided to use this product a little differently. 

My daughter is still in a car seat and sits in the middle in the back.  For that reason, we don't have an issue at this time with her feet on our seats.  I decided to use this product instead under her car seat to protect my leather seats from the imprint marks the car seat can leave.  So far, this idea has worked out brilliantly. 

I took her car seat out, put this seat protector underneath and reinstalled her car seat.  I have not seen the deep ridges and indents in my leather seats from her car seat since.  It works great and also seems to catch a lot of the dirt also.  It is easily to clean by either wiping it down or even throwing it in the washer.

I know this isn't the intended use of this product however it does work.  Also just to try this product as intended I did move it to my husbands truck and installed it on the back of the seat.  I love that these are easy to install and adjustable so they fit snug.  His seats are cloth which make the dirt and scuff marks all the more frustrating.  These seat back protectors kept his seats clean and free of possible damage.  I wish I had more so I could use for both vehicles!

I encourage you to check out Dot To Dot!  They have great products that are innovative and the customer service is just as great.

Argan Oil
4 fl. oz./$17.95

Argan oil is also referred to as "liquid gold."  It comes from an Argan nut from an Argan tree, which is only grown in Southwestern Morocco.  Argan oil is rich in antioxidants, vitamins, essential fatty acids, and minerals. 

It can be used for many things such as a moisturizer, toner, exfoliator, a leave in conditioner, acne treatment and many others. 

Argan oil also helps to minimize breakouts because of its anti-inflammatory properties.  I have used this product before bed and have noticed a difference in my trouble spots.  I love that it absorbs quickly.  My skin feels moisturized and not irritated. 

I have always had trouble with my cuticles being dry and always have hang nails.  After using this argan oil for a short period of time, my cuticles are less dry and overall feel healthier. 

I also have used this argan oil as a leave in conditioner.  My hair is longer than I normally keep it and I have noticed that with the long length comes more frizz.  After using this product as an overnight leave in treatment, my hair is noticeably softer and more manageable.  I don't like using this product as a topical treatment unless I plan on shampooing before styling.  If you use too much it will leave your hair looking greasy. 

I am so excited about this product!  If you have not tried argan oil, I recommend it!  You will be amazed at how many things in your beauty regime that can be replaced with argan oil.

www.bay-buy.com

I had never heard of this site before.  I am glad I checked it out!  This website has tons of products ranging from home products to cosmetics. 

The layout of the website is nice and user friendly.  There are tabs across the top for each of the category of products they offer.  The one thing I don't care for is that the share buttons cover part of the product category tabs, which makes it hard to read.  I am viewing this on my smartphone, so it may appear differently on a laptop or desktop. 

I do however like the pictures, they are clear and show the product well.  If you click on a product, it gives you more information and the pricing on the product.  I do have to say that the grammar, and punctuation are not great.  The descriptions are a little confusing because of this. 

One great feature, is that shipping costs can be calculated prior to going through the entire check out process. Definitely read the shipping details and keep in mind that shipping is from Israel.  It advises to allow 1-2 days for processing and 7-14 days for shipping to the United States.  I do however, like that they accept Paypal and they also have a drop ship option when shipping to someone other than yourself.  Again, read the details about shipping because it does advise for drop ship returns to deduct $2.00 from the refund. 

Overall, I think this website is great.  A little hard to read at times, but the products and prices look great!  Check out bay-buy.com, I think you will find something you can't live without!

PSS 100-
$36.95

This tiny speaker packs a powerful punch!  I was so excited to receive this product.  When I first got it, I immediately opened the box, turned it on and connected my phone.  Yes, it was just that easy.  All you have to do is turn on the Bluetooth setting on your phone, pair it with the speaker and bam your ready to rock!

Once it was paired, I chose a song and hit play.  The speaker responded with a rich, clear sound.  I used the button on the speaker to turn it up louder.  I was a little disappointed at first because it wasn't as loud as I had expected.  I realized however that the volume on my phone wasn't up all the way.  After I did that, I realized how loud this speaker really is.  It sounds amazing. 

The Liztek PSS 100 can connect to Bluetooth from up to 33 feet, has an 8 hour rechargeable battery, and a built in microphone for hands free calling. 

I love this product! The price is perfect for this great little speaker.  The company also offers a
100% money back customer satisfaction guarantee, so you really can't go wrong.  If you want more information on this product go to

PSS 60-
$34.95

This speaker is very comparable to the PSS 100.  It also is easily paired to Bluetooth from up to 33 feet, and it also has hands free.  This speaker however only has 6 hours of playtime, and the volume button is combined with the next button.  This may not seem like a big difference, however turning up the volume can be tricky if you don't hold the button down.  I prefer the PSS 100 because it has a separate volume button. 

The sound of the PSS 60 is great, especially for the price.  The PSS 60 has great quality but is not as loud as the PSS 100.  All in all, however I also love this speaker and have gotten a lot of use out of it already.
