Pratipad Multipurpose Round Silicone Pot Holders Review



The Pratipad round set includes 2 round silicone pads that in their design they can be used as a pot holder, trivet, or jar opener (*). Within the past few months, I have been seeing more silicone products for the kitchen. I really was interest in trying some.


 Each one of these round discs is 18 x 18 x 0.7 cm and made from FDA approved food grade silicone. They can withstand temps of -40°F to 446°F . They can be used in the oven, microwave or freezer. The design has this honeycomb effect on each side that looks and feels very cool. The pattern is what is actually allowing the heat and cold to be transferred evenly and saving your hands.I now use it instead of any other pot holders. It also works great as a jar opener.  I feel more confident with these.  I just never have trusted cloth pot holders. Now, I'm not worried about burning myself or loosing grip of any pot or pan. I'm now looking for one more use to get out of these update to come...

Black Charcoal Blender Sponge by JGOB Review


Believe it or not I haven't tried any blending sponge, well other than those white triangle ones. JGOB has a cute variety of blending sponges (*). I was able to try out the black one. The one distinction for other sponges is that it has its own carrying case. Once the sponge it dry I recommend storing it in that container as much as possible to prevent bacteria as well as sponge breakdown.



Right out of the package the sponge is smooth has no edges and is squeezable. From what  I understand some of the non name brand sponges are hard out of that package.


I used this two ways. With and without water. When you rinse it with water the sponge becomes quite large. I think the benefit to this is that it will soak up less of your foundation and keep it on your skin. I liked this application best, while the dry application wasn't bad and worked well, I feel I saw a difference in smoothness of my makeup.



When you apply foundation with this sponge, it gets into smaller areas nicely. Don't forget to wash after every use and let dry in a week ventilated area. One last positive is the price compared to other brands!

Lash IQ Review


I've been contemplating  using a lash growth serum for a while (*).  Lash IQ is a natural way to strength and grow lashes as well as brows. So for someone like me who has no eyebrows I decided to take the plunge. You have to apply it every night to either your lash line or eyebrows to clean skin.




Natural ingredients:  LASHIQ contains a robust formula of handpicked ingredients designed to transform thin and short eyelashes into luscious eyelashes in one month. It has Biotin, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Retinyl Palmitate, Pumpkin Seed Extract,Cucumber Fruit Extract,Hyaluronate, ect, a total of 15 effective ingredients. 




I used it on my eyebrows and saw growth in length and some hair on top and bottom.
I will take any growth I get, so I'm happy. I do wish they grew a bit more on the actual lash, but I guess its a dream.....
