Expandable Hose Review



Quality Expandable Hose


Did you ever see that as seen on TV commercials with the expandable hose! Well, my husband and I really wanted to try it after seeing all those ads...but we always been kinda sceptical: thought it's just an ad...Well when given the opportunity to review one from Quality Source Products, I jumped at it. 

Quality Source promises and delivers:


  • Strongest Hose Available at 100-PSI (Pounds Per Square Inch) Working Pressure
  • 300-PSI (Pounds Per Square Inch) Burst Pressure
  • Starts Out 25 Feet and Expands to 75 Feet with Water Pressure, Release Pressure and Hose Returns to 25 Feet
  • Lightweight will Not Tangle, Twist, or Kink


Within minutes of the mailman dropping it off, the expandable hose was attached to our house and ready to go. I was amazed at how little space this takes up when it is not expanded and full of water. It can be easily stored outside - no need for one of those ugly hose racks or expensive hide a hose baskets! Just looking at it compared to a regular hose that doesn't even reach half the distance this expandable hose does was crazy to see! 
I absolutely love these hose! Let me just say it again it's super light weight!!! 
Since I got it to review in winter time I haven't been using it as much, but I know I will be using it a lot when it's gardening time!!!

Organic Ceremonial Grade Green Tea Matcha Review


Organic Ceremonial Grade Green Tea Matcha

 Matcha…What Is It? 
 Matcha is green tea from the Camellia sinensis, but it a very fine powder version of the healthy 
drink. We all know the benefits of green tea, from stress relief to weight 
loss yet very few people take advantage of warm mug of tea. Maybe it is the perceived bitter taste 
of green tea, some have called it ‘yucky’ while others find the mild flavor soothing and delicious. I personally, like green tea and I have tried Matcha before: as a drink as an ingredient in a drink or you can actually add it to your everyday recipes.
 This package is small: it come in a cute little tint, easy to store, easy to travel with. After I had my first glass of matcha green tea from this package, I fell in love. The serving size is ½ to 1 teaspoon which meant my cherished package was going to last for a while. I mixed 1 teaspoon with 16 ounces of hot water, I know because thats the size of my thermal cup. I think the flavor is smooth, great aftertaste, not too strong not too weak, tastes like some of the best hot green tea's I've had before.
I've also been adding little bit in my every day fruit and veggie shakes, you can not taste it, but it is so good for you!

Smart Weigh TOP2KG Digital Pro Pocket Scale Review


Smart Weigh TOP2KG Digital Pro Pocket Scale  Review

 The Smart Weigh Digital Pro Pocket Scale can perform a wide variety of functions. You can use it to weigh any food, gemstones, coins, jewelry, gold, or silver. It can also double up as a postal scale for your mailing and postage needs. Weigh any letter, envelope, or object weighing up to 2000 grams = 4.4 pounds.

I recently started to do shakes everyday, so this was the perfect time to get this Scale, now I can weigh out my ingredients which allows me to count my calories! 



Smart Weigh scale is small and thin: fits into the palm of your hand, and weighs as little as eight ounces and I like it, because it's easier to store and takes up less cabinet or drawer space. Our kitchen is always so packed so the amount of storage space that it takes up makes a big difference to me.
The scale has a backlit blue LCD screen that is easy to read in any light and just looks great.
It's super easy to use: it came with manual too, which is handy to figure out how to work the Counting feature.
It measures ounces, grams, caretes, dry weight, ounces troy, and grains. 
It  runs on 2 AAA batteries, which are included!

Made with a combination high quality pony hair, goat hair, and synthetic hair. Natural animal hair is soft, durable, and does not hold color - allowing makeup to distribute evenly on your skin. No animals are harmed to create these natural brushes.


I was super excited to get this set, since I've been needing new brushes.
And I can not be happier, I absolutely love these. I got to say thought the case has a strong plastic smell, when I opened it I was scared that the brushes gonna be kinda "stinky"...but no it's just the case and once you air it out the smell goes away.
Now on to the brushes, so there are 12 brushes:
  1. Spoolie Brush - to separate the lashes before or after mascara, I actually use it to brush my eyebrows... it does the job great.
  2. Lip brush, I love that this one has a cap, so I can easily put it in my purse and keep for touch ups.
  3. Sponge Applicator, I actually hardly ever use these kind of applicators but it's nice to have one incase.
  4. Eyeliner Brush, now I love these kind of brushes, but I use it differently...I usually get these for nail art!!! Yes...and this one is perfect!
  5. Eyebrow Brush - I've been needing one for some time. Does a very good job filling my brows plus it feels nice and soft.
  6. Concealer Brush is nice and dense, I love it.
  7. Fan Brush - very soft and works perfect to wipe and contour powders.
  8. Smudge Brush - my fav one - the bristles are short but super soft, picks up the perfect amount of shadow, My smokey eye look looks so much better! At least to me.
  9. Eyeshadow brush - it's also a very soft one, which I love. 
  10. Foundation Brush - I actually have never used a foundation brush before...(been using a beauty blender) so I was nicely surprised how good of a job it does.
  11. Blush Brush - one of my fav as well - very soft and dense, does a great job, but you got to be careful with darker blushes thought.
  12. Powder Brush - I actually never use powder, so can not really say how it works, but it feels very soft.
Overall I think it's a great value for the price! These are great brushes!

I also can share a 40% OFF coupon code  that you can use to purchase these brushes on Amazon listing page. Promo code: GUKEN6AH

This coupon code will knock down the makeup brushes to: $28.67

Azure Naturals Cucumber Infused ULTIMATE PEPTIDE Eye Brightening Gel Review


Azure Naturals Cucumber Infused ULTIMATE PEPTIDE Eye Brightening Gel

 ULTIMATE PEPTIDE WORKS! This formula speaks to the deep and grounded evolution that Natural Skin Care Formulating has gone through in the last three decades in order to be able to deliver such a brilliant eye therapy product to you today. It is no exaggeration to say that this formula addresses every single eye area concern possible. Dark circles, wrinkles, sagging, puffing, loss of plump and firm, loss of tone and resilience....it's all taken care of in this delicate and light gel. 
HOW DOES IT WORK? Cellular renewal happens continuously when we're young, but as we age the skin's ability to renew itself slows down. Our ULTIMATE PEPTIDE Eye Brightening "Gel" helps restore your skin back to its natural youthfulness and reverse the signs of aging. Our Eye Gel will diminish dark circles, eye bags, puffiness, crow's feet, fine lines, and sagginess so for firmer more youthful skin around the eyes and all over the face.



The reason I was excited to try this gel is...well my dark circles and puffiness. I've been using it for over two weeks now and I can see the difference: don't get me wrong I still can see the puffiness and dark circles, but it looks much better and a big plus of this gel: it wears great under your make up. I got to have my concealer and some of under eye cream/gels make my concealer crease up bad by the mid day.... not the case here: no creasing even by late night. Awesome! 

It does not have any distinct scent, which is great since I don't like strong scented face products.


Plus It's made in the USA With The Highest Quality Natural and Organic Ingredients Available: 97% Natural, 72% Organic. Contains No Alcohol, No Parabens, Plant Based, No GMO's, Cruelty Free and Never Tested On Animals!

Azure Naturals ULTIMATE LIME INFUSED ORGANIC RETINOL Moisturizer with 2.5% Retinol Review


Azure Naturals ULTIMATE LIME INFUSED ORGANIC RETINOL Moisturizer with 2.5% Retinol

 What is Retinol?.. Retinol is one of the most effective ingredients for reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin A is proven to improve pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, skin texture, skin tone, color, as well as increase your skin's hydration levels.
This Azure Naturals moisturizer has 2.5 % Retinol, so I was super excited to try it. Some of the products with too much Retinol tend to dry my skin, I do have sensitive skin, but this is not the case with this moisturizer. You are getting all the benefits of retinol without the drying. In fact this moisturizer leaves your skin so soft and radiant looking. I am mainly using this to prevent the signs of aging, in my opinion it's never too early to use anti wrinkle moisturizers. 
It does not have strong scent, which I like. It smells like clean moisturizer. 


I use it in the morning after I cleanse my face. It sinks in super fast. 
If you don't have prior experience using Retinol products start slowly and be consistent with your use. Apply a small amount every other day, after a couple of weeks you can begin applying more frequently as your skin adapts. I have used products with Retinol in the past, so I been using it every day from the start.
From my own experience I can say that it's perfect to wear under your make up.
Another plus for me is:
It's made in the USA With The Highest Quality Natural and Organic Ingredients Available: 97% Natural, 71% Organic. Contains No Parabens, Plant Based, No GMO's, Cruelty Free and Never Tested On Animals!
