Organic Luxury Spa Night Gifts: The Cute & Young Bath Bomb Gift Set

December 17, 2017 · 11 Comments

Nothing is as relaxing as a warm bath! That is one of the reasons that Bath Bombs are so popular. But as fun as Bath Bombs can be, many bath bombs contain chemicals and dyes that are unhealthy for the skin. They also leave a colored ring around the tub that must be washed off after the bath. The Cute & Young Bath Bomb Gift Set is a luxury scented bath bomb set made of organic and emollient ingredients to soften skin naturally and safely and leaves no residual ring on the tub or residual on your skin!

Cute gift box comes over-wrapped in plastic to keep it in gift-giving condition

Lush Life contains Black Pepper Oil, Lavender, and Eucalyptus. Feeling Good has Ylang Ylang, Palmarosa, and Rose Oil

Get Lucky contains Ylang Ylang, Bergamot, and Sweet Orange, and Fix You has Rosemary, Eucalyptus and Lavender Flowers

MY EXPERIENCE

  • SENSORY EXPERIENCE: One bath bomb is enough for a regular sized tub, two can be used if desired in an especially large tub. However, since these are larger than typical bombs, I found using just one to be plenty of fizz, bubbles, and aroma for an enjoyable long soak in the tub. Check out the video at the end of this post to watch a Cute & Young Bath Bomb in action!

Add one Bath Bomb to a warm bath for a fizzy, foamy bubbly, scented bath experience

  • RELAXING: The combination of Epsom Salts and the Dead Sea Salts are particularly relaxing and soothing to aching muscles after a gym workout, pilates, or yoga session. If you do a “leg day” at the gym, I would particularly recommend the “Fix You” bath bomb that contains several great natural anti-inflammatory essential oils to ease aching muscles.
  • MOISTURIZING: In addition to the softening properties of Dead Sea Salts and Epsom Salts, there are generous amounts of moisturizing ingredients such as Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter plus hydrating essential oils that leave skin so soft!

CONCLUSION

A lovely boxed gift that is perfect for women of any age, as the all-natural, organic ingredients are safe enough for even a young girl or teen to use on their delicate skin. The Bath Bomb set comes gift boxed with a delightful presentation that is festive and feminine. The six individually wrapped bath bombs are HUGE at 4.2 ounces each, and provide ample fizz, bubbles, foam, and aroma to make for a delightful bath experience! I love the variety of bath bombs included in this set, as each moisturizing bath bomb includes differing essential oils for a different experience, whether improving a good night’s sleep, soothing aching muscles, feeling invigorated, or relaxed. The gift set comes with a 100% risk-free satisfaction guarantee.

A GIFT FOR FASHIONISTAS & FOODIES: David’s Cookies Navy Handbag Ceramic Decorative Jars Set

November 16, 2017 · 3 Comments

Looking for a gift for your favorite fashionista or foodie? Or how about both? Two things that appeal to our inner Marie Antoinette are decadent sweet treats and fashionable accessories. Combine these two loves together into a can’t miss gift: a versatile decorative designer-inspired decorative ceramic treat jar set from David’s Cookies, shaped like – you guessed it – designer handbags!

The David’s Cookies Navy Handbag Ceramic Decorative Jar Set

ABOUT THIS SET

The set comes with a full-size jar shaped like a handbag and matching treat size jar, shaped like a small bag. This Designer-inspired decorative treat jar set, of course, works as the quintessential cookie jar, or it can be used to hold your favorite sweet treats in the kitchen or office or for makeup storage on a dresser, vanity or desk. What fashionista wouldn’t love to get this as a gift?

Two-piece decorative jar set is inspired by designer handbag styles

CONSTRUCTION

The jar set is well made, the ceramic is fully glazed and hand-painted. There are no rough edges, cracks or crazes, or areas that missed glazing or paint as can be seen on some decorative ceramics.

This set is also notable for the attention to detail, as seen especially within the design and gold embellishments, the raised faux grommets, the detailing on the straps and other designer handbag highlights.

NOTE: Wash the ceramics carefully by hand, as decorative glazed ceramics are not recommended for dishwashers or microwaves.

SIZING DETAILS

This boxed set comes with two handbag styled ceramic decorative jars with lids:

FULL SIZE LARGER JAR

  • a full-size jar which measures approximately 9 1/4″ long by 6 1/4″ wide and it is 8″ high.

The full size jar to hold cookies, fun size candy bars, energy bars, etc

THE SMALLER TREAT SIZED JAR

  • a smaller treat-size jar which measures approximately 3 3/4″ long by 3 1/4″ wide by 4″ high.

PACKAGING

The outer box is thick and sturdy and bears the “David’s Cookies” logo. The gift set is very well packaged inside with multiple layers styrofoam fittings and individual plastic overwraps for keeping each piece separately contained to ensure safety in transit or if kept packed in storage. The set is highly suitable for gift giving. I like when a company takes this much effort to ensure an item is well packed when giving a gift because I know it will stay safe in transit if I mail it to someone.

David’s Cookies logo box packaging is sturdy with lots of internal packing materials to keep the set safe

USES

Decorative as well as functional display pieces, they also serve to organize a vanity or dresser. The full-size jar can hold food-based treats like cookies or wrapped candies, or be used on a vanity table to hold hair accessories or even makeup. The treat size jar is perfect for small hard candies or loose bobby pins, safety pins, cotton balls or swabs or even jewelry. It is also a good spot for a nail polish collection.

Use the large jar for cookies

Hold candy. The large jar currently contains 27 fun size KitKats, Heath Bars and Reeses Peanut Cups, with some room to spare

The set could be displayed in a dressing room, powder room, bedroom, or even as decor in a “lady boss” office. I like the idea of using these as a treat jar in an office setting because while they are large enough to be generous, they don’t store enough cookies or treats to mindlessly polish off excessive amounts of sweets while working on a project. On a desk, the large jar is useful to discretely store energy bars so you don’t over-indulge on vending machine junk food.

Keep power or energy bars at your desk if you can’t get away from work and need a quick energy boost

In the little treat jar, keep cough drops at the ready near a home or office phone or bedside table

MY EXPERIENCE

Perfectly in place on my vanity table amongst my girlie-girl trinkets, in the large jar, I keep my hair accessories such as clips, sticks, ribbons and hair jewelry for hair-on-the-go days for quick access so I don’t have to go rummaging for a quick-hairdo accessory when I am in a rush.

The large jar holds my go-t0 hair accessories for quick hairstyles all in one place: ponytail scarves, hair clips, hair jewelry, ribbons, hair sticks, etc.

In the smaller jar, I hold candy, band-aids, cotton balls or safety pins but it could also hold bobby pins. The lid top fits squarely and the product does not display excess wear from use.

Bandaids in smaller jar

And my favorite treat jar use, to hold chocolate truffles!

The tiny treat jar holding tiny treats!

Yum!!

CONCLUSION

The David’s Cookies Navy Handbag Ceramic Decorative Jars Set is a delightful gift for fashionistas with countless uses for both display and storage purposes, keep dressers and vanities organized with attractive and versatile pieces that are sure to draw compliments and a smile!

OFFICE-LIGHTING PROOF YOUR MAKEUP: Ambertronix LED Desk Lamp

October 17, 2017 · 2 Comments

We’ve all done it: your makeup looks perfect at home, but when you get to the office it looks cakey, harsh and pale. In a sea of makeup tutorials, there are few geared toward office makeup. This is unfortunate since you want to look your best for presentations, sales pitches or job interviews, but there is a high risk of looking either completely washed out or overly made-up or even garish in that weird office lighting. This is especially the case with mineral makeup, foundation, contour, and eyeshadow blending. Fortunately, with the proper lighting, you don’t have to forgo foundation and reasonable contouring in the office.

The Ambertronix LED Desk Lamp is ideal for applying makeup for the office

Why the right lighting is crucial to office-ready makeup

There are plenty of makeup blending tools, but this is only half the battle. The real secret to getting your makeup right for the office is to apply your makeup with the right lighting. The lighting in your bathroom or bedroom is likely too dim and too yellow, which will lead to makeup being too heavy.

Brushes and sponges can blend makeup flawlessly, but only when the right lighting is used

Natural sunlight is not right either, as it is too warm, imparting extra pink and gold to your skin when you’ll have to over-compensate for the grayish cast of harsh office lighting by adding in these tones.

Applying your makeup by bedroom or bath lighting can lead to too cakey foundation or overly harsh contouring

For these reasons, we recommend the Ambertronix LED Desk Lamp for optimal even light when applying makeup. It is bright enough to leave you shadow free during makeup application without washing you out, and it does not deceptively add a warm tone that can sabotage your office makeup. The lighting is bright but not harsh or eye-irritating, it does not flicker and tire out the eyes while being used, even for extended periods of time.

Ambertronix LEd desk lamp Features

  • USB PORT/CELL PHONE CHARGER There is a USB port on the side of the lamp and a tray large enough to hold and charge your phone while you are putting on your makeup in the morning, or for leaving it to charge overnight and will not forget it. I also like that it can charge and hold my phone or device if I feel like trying out a YouTube makeup tutorial on my phone in front of a mirror and good lighting.

    Convenient USB port to charge your phone while doing your makeup

  • It has Multi-mode lighting and brightness comes in five levels and four different lighting modes with a touch-sensitive dimmer on an intuitive option menu pad. Offices are quite bright with their overhead LED panels, so applying makeup with a bright light is a must.
  • The bulbs last for 25 years, so the lamp may even outlast how long you choose to stay at your office job! It is energy efficient with a power consumption rated at 14W.
  • AUTO-OFF TIMER: Have Your Smart Phone Close By And Charging At The Same Time. A USB Charging Port Is On The Lamp For Easy Charging. Also, Have The Ability To Turn Light Off Automatically With 1 Hour Auto-Off Timer. Perfect For When Dozing Off.
  • DESIGN: Slimline and sleek, it is 16.5″ high and 12.5″ long. The light arm easily bends to any position. Modern and stylish and with a small footprint it can be fit easily on tables, bedside, countertops and computer desks. Also ideal for a dorm or small studio apartment.
  • EASY TO STORE: Just fold it and store away easy with only a little space.

MY EXPERIENCE:

It was easy to assemble, it comes with directions but I didn’t need them. It is well packaged and has a plastic peel-off wrap that keeps it free of debris and scratches while in the box. It assembled quickly, I plugged it in and turned it on. No annoying flicker and the light is bright but not irritating to the eyes.

  • THE CONTROL INTERFACE
    The control interface is very intuitive, the top has plus and minus buttons to dim or increase the lighting. Four lighting options are available, for makeup, we recommend the brightest option.

    Choose the READ option for the best lighting for office makeup

  • AUTO SHUT OFF: The one-hour shut off mode is useful so you do not accidentally leave the light on all day while you are away.
  • ADJUSTABLE
    The light arm is fully adjustable to position for use applying makeup at a vanity table, desk, or using your bathroom mirror or even just a compact mirror.

CONCLUSION

Avoid makeup surprises at the office or anywhere with harsh, bright lighting by investing in a bright natural LED light such as the Ambertronix LED Desk Lamp. It simulates natural light so your makeup will not seem strange either inside or outside. It is flicker-free, which also makes it great for reading, studying, and office work. The auto shut-off in one hour feature is also very useful at bedtime to limit oneself to only one hour of reading or Netflix watching before lights out!
