Glow Stick Bracelets - 100 Bracelets



MarksvilleandMe reviews 100 Glow Stick bracelets


I was a bit excited to get these as were my daughters. You get 100 glow stick bracelets with 100 connectors in 4 different colors. There are lots of things you can do with them. Most of the time you see these at parades, and night time activities like fairs, and 4th of July.


You can stick them into balloons for glow in the dark fun, example during a sweet 16 birthday, or for Easter for a night time egg hunt. You can combine more then one color to make crowns, belts, or necklaces. You can attach them into your hair for a great night glow in the dark dancing. 

Put them on the handle bars of your bike, or even on the spokes talk about colorful. How about glow in the dark Geo Caching? The list just goes on and on with what you can do with these little glowing gems. Check out Pinterest for more Glow Stick ideas.

You can purchase the 100 Glow stick bracelets on Amazon.

OZ Naturals Ocean Mineral Cleanser



OZ Naturals Ocean Mineral Cleanser is cruelty free and 100% Vegan friendly which to me means it is made of pretty safe materials. Many times we put things in our body and on our body that are harmful either knowingly or unknowingly, but we should be taking the extra time to really look at what we are using and choose the healthiest thing we can to keep out bodies and mind healthy. 

The OZ Naturals Ocean Mineral Cleanser come in a squeeze tube and the first thing you will smell is the Rose Hip Oil which I have grown up using. When I am done washing I follow with my moisturizer and sit back and enjoy my clean soft skin.

 You can purchase OZ Naturals Ocean Mineral Cleanser here or on Amazon.

Insta Natural Scar Gel


I have a few members of our family who have cut themselves in the past, they grew out of it on their own but sadly it has left scars on their bodies. I have tried Several Scar Creams and Gels, but wanted them to try this one out on their scars. I am sure it will take more then a few weeks to see a big difference, but we are hopeful as this worked well on other kinds of scars. 

You can not always erase the past but you can smooth things over a bit for the future.

I like that this comes in a pump bottle so you don't have to mess with tubes. The gel goes on easily and absorbs into the skin easily. We have been told by Dr.'s to rub the cream or gel in until it is absorbed and then to rub the scars several times a day on top of using the gel.


You can purchast Insta Natural Scar gel here or on Amazon.

What Insta Natural has to say about their product.
Our Scar Gel contains a potent blend of ingredients designed to help diminish the appearance of scars. This includes Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) – a naturally occurring protein – which stimulates the healing process. Gotu Kola also aids in restoring healthy skin, while Green Tea, Fucoxanthin, Astaxanthin and Sea Kelp fortify the skin with antioxidants to minimize external damage. Your skin will be unconditionally moisturized as the visibilities of scars are reduced, resulting a healthier, more uniform appearance.

Gaia Organics Shampoo For Kids


When my now 12 year old was a baby we found out she was allergic to Sulphates in both medical and food form the hard way. Finding shampoo and other products for her to use has gotten easier over the years but at first we were reading every label to make sure she would not have a reaction. 

Yes we have a few surprises over the years but thankfully she is OK and now knows to ask or read before she eats or uses most of the time. With Gaia Baby Organics all natural baby shampoo &  body wash I know she can both wash her hair and body without me having to worry about her. 

I love that this is made in the USA and that it has the scent of Lavender which is a really great way to calm your baby, child, or self down before bed.  Six children later and we are still using Lavender which is what my mother used for me growing up as well, so I can attest at least for us it works very well. 

You can purchase Gaia Organics Shampoo for Kids here or on Amazon.

FlavFusion Infuser Water Bottle



Most of our family loves water, but for me I find it boring so for me this was the answer. I love to mix different kinds of fruits to make what we call spa water. We do lemon and cucumber, strawberry, blueberry/strawberry, watermelon, my new favorite it lemon/orange.

I also like to make regular brewed tea stick it in the fridge and infuse my tea with fruit as well. Think Green tea and your choice of  fruit. 

It is ideal to do this a day ahead of time or at least overnight for optimum results. Don't forget to shake to infuse the water with fruity goodness. 

I was really glad to get this bottle because my last infusion water bottle was taken over by one of my daughters and this one has already been claimed if and when I get another one. This bottle had a sipper instead of a straw like my old one which I found much better so I can chug water a little faster. 

This keeps me drinking water and when I get board with a flavor I just mix up a different batch of fruit and I am good to go for a while. What we like best is that it was made in the USA, and it can be reused over and over again, which means no more buying pre-filled water bottles.


You can purchase Flav Fusion Water Bottles on Amazon.
