KAMOTA beauty makeup sponges

My daughters are in love with these makeup sponges so I had to find more at a good price to make everyone happy including getting myself a new set. Even my 9 year old wants one and she doesn't even wear makeup, she just knows the other girls love them so that should mean she wants one too. Funny how children think.

I love that this set comes with 3 full eggs and 3 eggs with a flat side. I love the flat eggs for getting near to my eyes, lips, ears etc, while the full eggs are used all over my face and neck. Very soft to use on your delicate facial skin.

Remember to wet your sponge so it does not soak up so much makeup that it is wasting it. You will see the sponges are bigger and soften once used in the right way. When I told my daughter they are meant to be wet when used she was amazed and has said it made a big difference in how the product goes on, as well as using a lot less of her product to do the same job she was doing dry.

Magicdo dual tip markers

My girls were eyeing these markers as soon as they came in but I quickly told them they are going to be used for my new planner that starts in August 2017. I know I will end up letting them use them at some point but I want to get my play time in first.

These Magicdo dual tip markers are like a paint brush tip on one side with a fine tip on the other side so you can change up the way you want to draw, color, or design your masterpiece.

My main reason for using them is to keep our family organized by color coding our calendar for the next year. Organization is key to keeping everyone moving in the right direction and on time. There are so many things in life that are out of our control it is nice to be able to look at a planner and see what you can control all laid out for you in an easy to read format.

For my girls these would be used for drawing and creating things. I might have to sit down and color a bit with these with them for a little together time on a rainy day or while we are waiting for an appointment to start.

Having children who love music and social media is a full time job. From having to set rules to checking to make sure your rules are being followed. Another thing if you want to have some peace and quite you need to provide a good set of  headphones. Our family goes through headphones like crazy. Not us adults but the kids. Either they get stolen, lost, or broken. 

The M10 headphones by Ailihen are a great option for several reasons, the price is affordable so you will not go broke buying them, they have good sound quality, come with a case, have several sizes of earbud covers to customize fit, and can also be used with your phone with the built in microphone. These headphones are sure to be a hit for the tween, teen, or adult in your life.

Instapeel

I didn't use this Instapeel for my face but I did use it on my feet. The camera really didn't pick up that much of a difference could be the day I am holding my foot but they sure do feel smoother.

Instapeel is super easy to use. Just hop in the shower or bath and let skin get moist for at least 5 minutes and then open your packet up and put a little on your fingertips. Once on skin then rub back and forth till skin stops peeling. What I like most about this item is that it only attacks dead skin and not the new skin that is already there. This was a big concern for me and the reason why I used it on my feet first instead of my face.

To be honest besides using facial products and masks I am still concerned with using something like this on my face but after seeing tons of videos etc I would go with this form over all others at this time. This can be used on your face, feet, elbows, knees, etc.

I am going to give one of these packs to my husband to use on his elbows and hope to update at a later time the difference before and after for those as well. It will be interesting to see.

Simple Essentials Tweezers

Being a women having 4 girls we go through a lot of tweezers. Mainly because they end up going missing but for some reason when they come in a case like this they always seem to stay some what easy to find. 

What I like about this set from Simple Essentials is that the case actually has a mirror so when you are on the go you can still do your brows if you really find the need. I like to keep a set handy in our first aid kit for health issues like ingrown hairs, splinters, etc. 

My youngest daughter loves this set because is it purple her favorite color. These are great for gift giving as well, great for making a nice beauty kit.
