Your Makeup Won't Cause a Purse Catastrophe When You Use Miss Swiss

I received this product from Miss Swiss for review.  Have you ever had your makeup come open and spill inside your purse?  That's the problem with throwing your makeup in your purse as you go out the door...it isn't held securely and as it moves around, the lid works open and the contents gets all over everything.  Most women have had a "purse catastrophe" like this happen to them, and it's frustrating.  Not only does it ruin the items inside of your purse, it ruins the purse as well.  Even using a traditional makeup case isn't immune to this problem.  But Ashley Piszek, a 24 year old entrepreneur, has come up with a solution.  She calls it Miss Swiss.

 

Miss Swiss is a sturdy plastic makeup holder that prevents friction between makeup items, which is a major cause of makeup spillage.  It offers a convenience and utility that resembles a Swiss Army Knife, thus the name "Miss Swiss".  Each one features a large shatter resistant mirror that makes makeup on the go easy.  With four holders for common beauty products, you can easily carry everything you need for quick touch ups throughout the day.

Measuring 7.25 inches long, 4.25 inches wide, 1.25 inches deep, Miss Swiss is compact enough to easily fit inside of your purse.  It comes in five different colors:  Blue Hydrangea, Princess of Monaco Pink, Silhouette Black, Fiolet Purple and Summertime Shandy Yellow.  With a retail price of $30, you'll want one in each color!

Because the holders flip up, you won't even need to remove the makeup container from the case to use it.  Simply flip it up and screw off the lid.  This is the epitome of convenience.

The lid of the makeup case snaps securely shut, ensuring that your makeup is contained within.  Miss Swiss would be a wonderful Valentine's Day gift for any woman on your gift list.  She'll love the convenience, compact size and peace of mind that knowing she can carry her makeup without worrying about spills and leaks inside her purse will give her.

Fix Your Christmas Lights in Seconds

I received these products from Light Keeper Pro for review.  You know that sinking feeling you get when you plug in a string of Christmas lights and they don't work?  You know that there's probably only one bulb in the whole string that doesn't work, but the problem is finding it in order to replace it.  It's a long tedious process, testing every bulb one by one until you find the bad one.  And odds are, that bad one will be the last one you check.  But the Light Keeper Pro can help you identify and replace the bad bulb in seconds, letting you quickly get on with your holiday celebrations.

 

The video above shows a clip from the Steve Harvey Show when they featured the Light Keeper Pro.  It shows a demonstration that shows you just how fast and easy this thing is to use.

As explained on the Light Keep Pro website:

How the LightKeeper Pro Works

Fixes most light sets in seconds using the Quick Fix Trigger

Most miniature Holiday Light set failures occur when an individual bulb “shunt” fails to energize. These shunts are energized when a filament burns out. This causes a section of lights, usually 35 or 50, to go out instead of just one light bulb. This is because miniature light sets are wired in “series” and electricity must flow through each bulb, to the next, for them to light.The LightKeeper Pro Quick Fix Trigger sends a shaped, electrical pulse through the defective bulb, clearing the shunt. This allows it to operate properly. The current can then flow through the light set completing the circuit and illuminating the other bulbs.

The Patented LightKeeper Pro is the first product to FIX defects in a light set with the squeeze of a trigger.

Keep lights going and glowing despite a burned out bulb

Each wall plug has a “Hot”, “Neutral” and “Ground” contact. Electricity is powered from the “Hot” contact and flows through the lights. It is similar to water flowing in a pipe. The LightKeeper Pro Continuity Detector/Voltage Detector uses an IC (Integrated Circuit) chip to find where the flow of electricity stops. It does this by detecting the minute electrical field emanating from the “Hot” wire even when a defect has caused the lights to go out. This electrical field when detected by the LightKeeper Pro, starts the beeping sound and continues as you scan the light string. When the electrical field stops emanating at the defect, the beeping stops. This shows where the problem is in miniature, series light strings. The detector finds the problem spot but the bulb or socket needs to be checked and appropriate repair action taken. The repair action may be securing a loose bulb, or testing a bulb to identify if it needs to be replaced.

 

Quickly and easily go from having a light string that doesn't work, to having one that does, without the stress and frustration of tested every single bulb, one by one, until you find the bad one.  You can purchase the Light Keeper Pro directly from their website, Amazon, Walmart, Target and many other retailers.  This is a must have for the holiday season!

Another must have product is the Battery Tester.  This little gadget eliminates the disappointment of misjudging battery life.  It has a TriColor Meter that indicates the batteries strength by gauging the strength with High, Medium and Low Tests.  It's compatible with C, D, AAA, AA, 9V, N and Button Cell batteries thanks to its adjustable arm for different size batteries.  Its compact size makes it convenient and completely portable, so you can easily carry it with you anywhere you may need to test batteries.  

 

The Scent Keeper will fill your home with the Christmasy fragrance of a real Christmas tree, even if you have an artificial one.  I love the smell of a real tree, but hate dealing with all of the needles that fall off and make a mess everywhere.  Artificial trees are far more convenient, but they lack that Real Christmas tree scent.  But you can use Scent Keeper Scented Ornaments and have the best of both worlds! 

This Scent Keeper set comes with 3 scented ornaments that
captures the essence of Christmas, hooks to hang them with and a small bottle of Scent Keeper spray.  You'll enjoy real Christmas tree scent without the hassle and mess!

 

Scent Keeper Air Freshener Spray will help you put the scent of Christmas in the air, making your home smell like Christmas.  This spray delivers a subtle scent without being overpowering, to set the mood for the holiday.  Just a quick spray and you're all set!

The Coolest Thing You Didn't Realize You Needed

 I received this product from The Claire Life for review.

The Kitchen Soap Saddle makes it easy to keep your kitchen sink neat and tidy.  It was designed to have both soap and a cleaning utensil in one easy to use location.  This frees up your counter space so you can easily wipe it off without having to move a ton of stuff.  It fits neatly in the center of the sink, keeping it out of the way, yet easily accessible.  

It has a soap bottle with a dispenser top and a pocket space to hold a cleaning sponge or something of that nature.  Your counter will look much better with your soap and sponge neatly organized in the kitchen soap saddle.

There are three different colors of Kitchen Soap Saddle choose from:  white, black and marble.  Choose the one that matches your kitchen decor best, or get one of each and switch them out periodically.  This would make a wonderful Christmas gift for anyone on your list. 

Add More Nutrients to Your Food with Enspice

I received these products from Enspice for review.  Enspice offers delicious spices to use in your every day cooking.  But these aren't ordinary spices...they are enhanced with 21 vitamins and minerals.  So each time you sprinkle a little of these spices on your food, you are adding essential nutrients as well!  So it's spices, but better for you.  The company also has a big heart!  They donate a nutritious meal to a child in need for every container of enspice that is sold!

I was lucky enough to receive an Everything Bundle, which is priced at $60.  It contains one of each spice that Enspice offers.  It's for those who believe in making any meal tasty and nutritious, and those who seek a vibrant pantry.  There are six different spices included and each tasty blend is packed with 21 plant based vitamins and minerals, making nutrition just a dash away.  

Sri Lankan Cinnamon is the tastiest cinnamon you’ve ever had.  It's perfect for baking, oatmeal and even cinnamon toast!

This Black Pepper is black peppercorns ground to perfection.  Perfect to season meats, soups and any other food.

This Seasoned Salt is salt that’s a little more fun, and lot more nutritious.  This stuff tastes awesome sprinkled over a juicy steak or chicken breast.

If you love seafood, you're going to love Cape Cod.  It brings out the flavors in the fish without disguising it.  It's seafood’s new best friend.

Grab this Taco Seasoning the next time you decide to have a taco night.  You'll love it!

 

Whether cooking on the grill or inside, Chipotle BBQ goes perfectly with any cut of meat.  It's smoky, sweet, and a little bit of heat.

I love using Enspice because it not only tastes great, it adds tons of vitamins and minerals to your diet as well.

Focus Better With FOCI

I received this product from FOCI for review.  FOCI is a small wearable device that will help you improve your focus.  It's priced at $129, but I was given an exclusive discount code for my readers that will give you a 15% discount on your order placed from www.fociai.com.  Just enter MELFRI15 when you check out.  The FOCI device uses an app that you download and install on your phone to capture your cognitive states and transform them into colored orbs. This process will quickly help you visualize and understand your current state, and point you to optimize your state of mind, so you can stay focused and perform efficiently.

The FOCI device is small, about the size of your thumb, that you clip onto your belt or shirt.  As you wear it, it tracks your emotions by monitoring your breathing.  It will display the information on your phone, using different colored orbs to display your current state.  

 

The FOCI app uses colored orbs (inspired by the movie Inside Out) to let you know the state you are in.  A yellow orb means that you're focused, blue means that your relaxed, purple means you're tired or fatigued and red means that you're stressed.  You'll get to know exactly what state you are in throughout the day, which is very helpful as you strive to be able to focus better.

By knowing your emotions at any given moment, you can learn to avoid distractions and remain focused on the task at hand.  FOCI will give you distraction alerts to help you cut them short with focus music and breath pacing.  You can customize the alerts with the five different types of distraction nudges to help you stay on track as you work.  You can learn to control your attention and to refresh yourself from fatigue and stress, simply by training with focus and relaxation biofeedback.

FOCI is a perfect gift idea for anyone who often struggles to maintain focus on the task at hand.  It's great for students because it can help them study and improve their grades.  And it can help you to gain an overall better quality of life.

The Strongest, Lightest and Most Portable Laptop Stand Ever

I received this product from Hohbeestore for review.

We all know that bad posture is very detrimental to our bodies.  sitting hunched over or reclined too much for long periods of time not only brings on body aches (back, neck, shoulders, etc), it can also damage your eyesight and bring on headaches from straining your eyes too much.  This laptop stand offers 8 modes for height adjustment, elevating your laptop from 1.35" to 5.34" above the tabletop, protecting your eyes and helping to improve your body posture over long hours of working at your computer.

 

The forward-tilt angle and open design of the stand offers greater ventilation, allowing more airflow through to cool your laptop during operation and better ventilation to dissipate the heat.

 

The stand is made of premium aluminum alloy weighs only 0.75 lbs.  It's the strongest, lightest and most portable laptop stand that I have ever used.  It easily supports up to 44 lbs.  The rubber pads on the top and front edge of the stand can stably hold your laptop in place while offering maximum protection against scratching or sliding.

 

When not in use, the laptop stand easily folds to a compact size for convenient storing and transporting.  It even comes with its own little bag to store it in.  It's small enough to slip into your bag or backpack, and it's so lightweight that you'll forget you're carrying it.

This laptop stand is a great gift idea for any student, office worker or anyone who spends a lot of time using a laptop.  It would actually be perfect for anyone on your gift list, since most people frequently use a laptop, tablet or other portable device.  Everyone will love it!     

This Scooter is Perfect For Any Member of the Family

I received this product from Globber for review.  They offer scooters for the whole family:  toddlers, kids, teenagers and adults.  They've transformed the conventional scooter with its reliable, sleek and innovative design, aa well as its unmatched functionality.

The Ultimum 3 Wheel Kick Scooter is a great gift idea for anyone in your family.  It's designed for kids, teens and adults and can support up to 220 lbs.  It's the first ever scooter to be equipped with the patented, adjustable steering angle control system, which allows you to easily modify the turning radius on the front wheels to suit your riding style.  

You can easily adjust the turning radius of the front wheels using the easy to use knob on the front of the scooter deck.  By turning the knob clockwise you will decrease the turning radius for small turns, and if you turn it counter clockwise you'll increase for big turns.

The Last Can Opener You'll Ever Need

I received this product from Kitchen Mama for review.  Many people struggle to use one of those mechanical can openers.  Especially people who have arthritis, carpal tunnel or just stiff and painful joints.  Turning a mechanical can opener can be extremely painful when your hands are already in pain.  And many mechanical can openers stop working after just a few uses, leaving you with half opened cans that you have to pry open to get to what's inside.  But Kitchen Mama puts an end to all of that with their awesome One Touch Hands Free Electric Can Opener. 

This can opener is a game changer in the kitchen!  Just imagine:  no more fighting with your can opener, no more finger cuts, no more fishing around the sharp edges to lift the lid!  This portable, battery operated can opener automatically stops and latches off as soon as it is done opening those cans.  It's so easy to use, anyone can do it!

This can opener make opening cans easier for kids, the elderly and people who have arthritis or other pain issues in their hands.  It rotates and stops on its own and will open a can in the blink of an eye.  It leaves no dangerous sharp edges because it cuts along the sideof the can, not the top.  The lid can even be reused as a cover for the can until it's empty.  It's 100% hygienic because no food from the can will get on the opener while its doing its job.  The built in magnet makes it super safe and clean because it makes lifting the lid off of the can much easier, preventing the contents from spilling out all over the opener.  While this can opener is best on small and medium cans, it will make short work of opening them.

This can opener make a wonderful and much appreciated gift to your loved ones.  No one likes to struggle and fight to open a can with a manual can opener.  The One Touch Hands Free Electric Can Opener makes opening cans easy!

Turn an Ordinary Cane into a Fashion Accessory

I received these products from Sweetmobility for review.  If you rely on a cane to maintain your mobility, you'll love this product.  It lets you turn your ordinary cane into a fashion statement.  It's called CaneWraps, and it wraps around your cane to turn it into a beautiful statement of style.  They are perfect as Christmas gifts, and with a retail price of $26 each, they're affordable enough to gift them in a variety of styles!

CaneWraps are available in variety of classic prints, bold colors and beautiful styles, making it easy to match your outfit or mood.  Each wrap has a label hidden inside where you can write your name, address and phone number.  If you ever lose your cane, whoever finds it will seen your info when they unsnap the wrap, making it easy for them to return it to you.  There is also a reflective strip to make you more visible at night when it's dark.

It's super easy to attach the wrap to your cane.  Just snap the top around the cane, then slide your fingers down along the velcro strip so it attaches, and then snap it at the bottom.  That's all there is to it!  Your cane is all dressed up and ready to go!

The Rosie Glow CaneWrap is a fresh mix of pink, lavender and orange bursts that creates a beautiful modern day floral pattern.  This is one of the patterns that I was lucky enough to receive, and it's perfect for my Mom to use when she goes to church.  The colors match many of her dresses, keeping her stylish and fashionable.

When Mom gets tired of the Rosie Glow pattern, she can switch up her look with this Mary's Garden CaneWrap.  It is equally as beautiful and stylish, and Mom receives tons of compliments when she uses it.

Using CaneWraps has made Mom far less self conscious about using her cane because she now thinks of it as a fashion accessory.  And she's already asking for more patterns to match her wardrobe!

A Beautiful Reminder of a Personal Intention

I received these products from MaeMarie for review.  Their Intention Wraps are beautiful strings of beads that can be wrapped into bracelets or necklaces.  They even have smaller ones that can be worn as rings!

 

While wrapping the beads, think about something that you would like to do and set a personal intention to do it.  As you wear the Intention Wrap, it will remind you of your intention each time you notice it.  When you get a glimpse of your tiny gems, when you feel it on your wrist or around your finger, or when friends and family comment on it, you'll be gently reminded of your intention.

The Fuel Luxe in Silver:  Authority, Rebellion, Sophistocation

Every MaeMarie Intention Wrap is an original, made in the USA, hand strung creation slightly different than any others, making it a truly personal one of a kind piece.  Once the wrap is on, it feels weightless; therefore, days, weeks or months may pass before you take it off.

Bracelets That Double As Hair Ties

I received these products from L'Duex for review.  After noticing that many women were going about their day with a rubber band around their wrist, Vickie Adamson (the founder of L'Duex) decided to come up with something more stylish. I'm sure the men reading this are wondering why women would wear rubber bands on their wrists, but women get it.  The rubber band is there in case you need to put your hair up.  We women like to be prepared, and if the need for a hair tie arises, we like to be ready. 

 

Vickie created a line of beautiful elasticized bracelets that look awesome on the wrist. They're fashionable and elegant, but when the need arises, it's a fully functional hair tie that looks equally as beautiful in your hair.  Each bracelet features a gorgeous stone or pendant with prices starting at $26.  

Desert

Why would you wear an unattractive rubber band when you can wear something like this beautiful piece of jewelry? Because these are all natural stones, the size, shape and color will vary, meaning that no two will be exactly alike.  You will have a one of a kind piece of jewelry!

Stone

These effortlessly stylish bracelets are perfect for everyday wear.  Women of all ages will love wearing these at the gym, shopping or running errands. They'll attract compliments and everyone will want to know where they can get some for themselves.

Ebony

 

You're going to love these so much that you'll want one in every color. Match them up to your outfit and never get caught without a hair tie again. You can even wear them for more formal occasions because they are exquisite.

 

These are an excellent Christmas gift idea and would be perfect for stocking stuffers! Women always need hair ties, and it's so frustrating when you need one, but can't find one. L'Duex is an elegant and beautiful fashion accessory, but it will convert to a hair tie the second you need it to!
