Purse Hangers USA Product Review & Giveaway (ENDED)

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am not comfortable about leave my belongings out in the open; I feel extremely discomfort about it. So, I am extremely aware of my surrounding and try to keep them close to me. Also I try my best to keep them clean, especially with my bags. However, during my long lectures I ended becoming lazy and placing my bag on the floor (filled with germs and bacteria). I am aware that I tend to act out whenever I am in the public – filled with germs and bacteria. My mom calls it “germaphobic” but I call it being healthy and safe.

Have you ever been out in public, and had to use the restroom, and there was no where to put your bag? 

Well, no worries – Anymore – 

thanks to Paul and PurseHangersUSA.com 

for creating “Purse Hangers” 

are all shapes, sizes and colours.

“Protect your handbag: Why place your handbag on the floor where there are germs? Why place your handbag on the back of your chair when it can easily be stolen? Now you can hang your handbag from a beautifully designed hanger! Not only will this product allow easy access of your personal belongings, but is a great way to prevent the spread of germs. We carry the latest design and affordable hangers. These hangers are not ONLY for purses as they are for diaper bags, laptop bags, briefcase, etc. Our hangers are tested to hold up to 10 lbs each and we stand behind our high quality hangers.

My Product Review

Paul from “PurseHangersUSA.com” was so sweet enough to send me the Pink Ribbon & Key Finder Gift Set. It is so beautiful and it has an amazing cause for “Breast Cancer Awareness”. This is wonderful equipment. I carry it along with me every day, especially to school. Now, I don’t have to place my tote bag on the floor. Plus, I feel really secure, since it’s so close to me and I don’t have to always keep both my eyes on my bag. The “Pink Ribbon & Matching Key Finder Gift Set” is Zinc Alloy, easily support heavy handbag more than 15lbs. Plus, it came with a cute gift box. Also, remember that all you have to do is take it out of the box, unfold it and “bam”, you can hang your bags where ever and whenever you are out in public like school or at home. Plus, your purse goes right on the hook and it stays there. Also, you will feel so much better knowing your purse will be germ free and it’s in a safe place.

However, Paul & PurseHangersUSA.com has generously supplied me with a "12 Crystal with Clear Gem Purse hangers with Velvet Pouch" for one lucky reader!

Facialwork.com Product Review

Recently, I was contacted by Grace from Facialwork.com to review two of their amazing products; 

Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers & SwirlyDo Hair Ties

Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers

“Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers is a hair removal tool that uses a similar process as the technique called hair threading. Hair threading is an ancient method of hair removal in Asia in which the unwanted hair is removed from the roots with the use of a thread. Some people apply white powder before they thread the hair on their faces to make it easier. Hair threading may be difficult to learn and should be done by experienced people since there is potential to damage the skin if done improperly. The Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers is a simple solution for hair removal. You can learn how to use it in just a few minutes. Now you can do the threading at home easily!”

___________________________________________________________________________________

Frequently asked questions about the Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers

(From the website)

Does the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers remove hair from the root, or does it just cut it from the skin level?
The Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers removes hair from the root, the same way as waxing or threading.

Does it hurt when using the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers?
For people who regularly wax or pull hair from the root, using the Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers is relatively painless. It feels like plucking, except using the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers is quicker because more than one hair at a time is removed.
For people who have never removed hair from the root before, or have thicker hair on the upper-lip area, we recommend that you apply a hot towel on your skin just using the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers. This will help open the pores making hair removal much gentler. The towel should be hot enough to leave on for at least 2 minutes. (Take care to not burn yourself.) After using the Lindo Twist-n-Roll a few times, your skin will get used to the motion and feeling, and a hot towel application may not be needed.

How does the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers work?  

When you bend the tweezers into an upside-down U shape and place it against your skin, the coil opens,              positioning  the facial hair between the coils. When you twist the handles, the coil gently closes and grabs the hair; through the rolling motion, the coil opens and closes, and the hair is gently pulled from the root.

Does the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers works on coarse hair
The Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers works on all types of hair, including peach fuzz and coarse hair.
When you use it on long, coarse hair, you'll need some patience and practice; if you can't get the long hair by rolling the tweezers on the hair, you can pull the handles to open the coil so the hair catches between the coils, and then roll it.

How can I use the the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers on my eyebrows?
The Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers can be used only between the eyebrows and above the eyebrows. Never use it under the eyebrows because it can catch and pull your eyelashes.
To use it between the eyebrows, roll from different directions to find the best angles that work for you.
To use it above the eyebrows, slowly pull to open the coil to catch the hair, then roll upwards.

Can I use the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers on other body areas?
The Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers was designed for facial hair removal, but it can be used on legs, toes, fingers, and upper arms. (It should never be used under the eyebrows.) The Lindo Twist-n-Roll always works best when you roll it against the hair-growing direction.

How do I clean the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers?
To clean it, wipe the coil with a dry paper towel to remove the hair easily. Use rubbing alcohol to wipe the coil for sanitizing. Do not rinse it under water.

Does the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers wear out?
Depending on how often it has been used and how well it has been taken care of, the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers can last from six months to 2 to 3 years. Generally, we recommend replacing it once a year. To avoid damaging it, do not play with it by spinning it or pulling it apart. Important: Make sure to keep the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers away from children.

Why choose Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers?
Compared with waxing, it is less painful. It will not cause redness and breakouts.

Compared with hair removal creams or bleaching, it is 100% natural, and will not cause burns or skin discoloration.
Compared with the traditional threading technique, it is easier, safer, and more hygienic.

Compared with plucking, it is more time efficient and quicker, and you don't have to use a mirror!
How often should I use the Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers?

The Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers is safe to use every day, but it depends on how quickly your hair grows. Some people prefer to use it weekly or monthly.

My Product Review

My Review on “Lindo Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers”

I have officially fallen in love with the tweezers, it really works. Plus, I mainly used it for my eyebrows rather than my face, since I barely have any baby hair (which I am thankful for). I also, purchased another Twist-Ω-Roll Tweezers for my close friend from the nearest drug store (she loves it too).

My Review on “Lindo SwirlyDo Hair Ties”

The SwirlyDo hair ties from Lindo’s are cute and it doesn’t pull out any of my hair. I received the neutral hair tie packs from Facialwork.com. I really like it and it’s cute (as mention in the precious sentences). I wear them mostly to the gym =) Also, I love putting my hair up in high ponytails and this really keeps it stable and it’s come off like my regular elastic hair ties. 

Well, I hope all of you have a fantastic day!

Plus, a huge thank you to Facialwork.com and Grace.

Everyday Minerals Product Review

Everyday Minerals is a website that sells mineral makeup and natural skincare.

 You can find a great selection of blush, eye shadow, face powder, brush and many more.

I had a chance to go through their website and I am extremely overwhelmed with the amount of colours. Plus, their brush looks like it has an amazing quality.

They have a huge selection of items to choose from.

If you like make up, and colourful make up, I suggest you check out Everyday Minerals. 

Also, they have a huge collection of neutral shades.

I received a few products from Everyday Minerals to try out and review.

I received blush in Rhapsody in Peach, Pink Ribbon, eye shadow in Jane Eyre and eye shimmer (roll on) in In The Garden.

My Product Review

Rhapsody in Peach

 Rhapsody in Peach is a coral pinkish color. The blush it’s self is very shimmery and it really brightened up my cheeks. Plus, the shimmer lasted for the whole day (which was nice). However, if you are not into the whole shimmery cheeks then I don’t recommend this for you.

However, if you do love shimmery cheeks, then I definitely recommend this for you. Cause the my cousin actually said blush’s colour is awesome and amazing.

Overall, I am not a huge blush person; however I received many comments for this specific colour. My friend actually said that this colour made my cheeks look big and cute like a princess (which made my day).

Pink Ribbon

        Pink Ribbon is a light baby pink color. It's also very 

shimmery but it’s really light and pretty. Once again, 

if you're not one to like shimmery blushes, I don't 

recommend this for you again. However, if you do, 

I totally recommend 

this because this colour is amazing. Plus, it's a very 

beautiful colour for blushes; it’s really light pink colour 

and feels very light too. Plus, this colour is perfect for 

everyday wear and I love it.

Jane Eyre

 

Jane Eyre is a neutral powdered eye shadow. It's really powdery and extremely shimmery (once again). The colour is very neutral and definitely could be used for daily wear for eyes. This is something I would buy again in the near future. Plus, this neutral colour somehow makes my eyes look huge.

 

In The Garden

 In The Garden is a dark brownish roll on eye shadow colour. I love the roll on container – very useful and I don’t have to hunt for an eye shadow brush in the morning (saves so much time). Really pretty colour and once again this colour is also on the neutral side and could be worn daily. 

Overall, love all four products especially the blushes and definitely will shop in this website in the near future.

A huge thank you to "Everyday Minerals" for giving me this opportunity to work with them and for giving me a chance to do a product review for them.
