The Sakura Pigma Micron is an excellent drawing pen that is also pretty nifty for writing with, it dries quickly and tends not to smudge.
Quite apart from the writing and drawing experience, which is excellent, a huge appeal of the Sakura Pigma Micron is its ink. It’s archival ink which means it’s waterproof and fade resistant. All your failures and triumphs can be preserved for all time.
It’s my pen of choice price, these don't bleed or rip into the paper.

I love using this on my family. It is so easy and the reading comes out quickly and easily readable. I hate when someone feels terrible and I have to say I know you feel sick but can you put this under your tongue for a minute. Then they move or talk and the reading is inaccurate and you have to wonder did they just have a cup of something hot or cold?
I don't have to worry about this when using the head thermometer, just swipe it across and bam reading and then I can get them the medicine they may need. I took everyone's normal body temperature when well, so I can compare it to when they are sick as I'm sure there maybe a bit of a variance between internal/external temperatures.

So pleased I found this! Adds great volume to my hair, I spray my dry hair with my head upside down and tussle it. No stickiness and the scent is so nice, every time I wear this someone asks what fragrance I'm wearing. I often have to use my curling iron to tame a few stray locks and I get no nasty residue on the rod like I did before. Great stuff!
*Be careful using your hair dryer with this stuff in, I tried it and and my hair was insanely pouffy.

Learning by experimenting in a stress-free environment.
With the game Numbers for Osmo kids learn in a creative and fun way math on the iPad. The game is designed so that children do not have to perform within a certain time and also need not worry that they give a wrong answer. Osmo giving lifelike feedback and let children learn by experimenting in a stress-free environment.
The object of Osmo Numbers is to release the fish that are trapped in bubbles above the surface of the water. You pop the bubbles by placing physical number (or dot) tiles in front of the screen that add up to that number: so, you’d pop the 3 bubble by placing down the 2 + 1 or 1 + 1 + 1 . . . simple.
You want to get the most fish you can during your turn, so kids are motivated to think quickly, which is where this learning becomes intuitive. They’re memorizing these facts by experimenting and using trial-and-error, not counting on their fingers. And that’s the goal.
As you progress in the game, you’re moving from counting the dots to working out multiplication challenges. So the more you play, the more you learn. That, plus the fact that the kids are getting tactile stimulation from the physical tiles that come with the game.
My homeschooled son has learning challenges and Osmo has been a wonderful tool.

My dog is a VERY finicky eater, my finances have changed recently so I've been trying to find a decent quality food now that I can also afford - he will simply stop eating if he doesn't like it. Chicken is his favorite food so we tried this and it was a winner! He's always been a bit on the slim side, but he likes this so much he's actually starting to fill out a bit. He's happy so I'm very happy! -

Cruelty free! :)
The 4oz soap bars have a light / fresh scent to them that I do like. My only concern/complaint is the soap ingredients shows no essential oils, they never claimed it did, but "All Natural" may give you the impression that they might. The ingredients are as follows:
-Palm Oil, Water, Glycerin, Jojoba Oil, Fragrance, Sodium Chloride.
That being said; the bars are very hydrating and they leave my skin feeling smooth and soft and I have no skin irritation from using them.
The bars lather up nice, and are great to shave with! (The feel of them kind of reminds me of holding one of those glycerin bars).
I enjoy the subtle scents very much.
The Miracle wash - Tea Tree
Cool Mint - Eucalyptus
Tropical Cleanse - Grapefruit
Purifying Zing - Lemon
Floral Detox - Lavender
Soothing Citrus - Orange

Very durable and absorbant. I can even scrub my floors with these, wash dishes with them and they don't fall apart like many brands. Perforated to choose half sheets, so less wasteful. I accidently washed a few sheets in our washing machine and they didn't disintegrate or get fibers all through the laundry. Very pleased! -
Cottonelle Ultra Comfort Care* Double Roll Toilet Paper, 18 Rolls
I love the double rolls, it takes up less space in my cupboard of my space limited bathroom. Absorbent and durable, yet so soft and kind to your bottom :) Great quality product and value.

Great little speaker, paired easily to my laptop and phone. To pair with more than one device just make sure to temporarily disable Bluetooth to the existing device so it will sync to the next one. Re-enable it after and you're good to go. Its sound is impressive for its size, I didn't realize how 'tinny' my old one sounded until I compared it to this one. I love that I can carry this around room to room, and brought it outside today to groove to my tunes while painting my kitchen chairs. Looking forward to bringing it to the beach this summer! It came with 3.5 audio cable, not sure I will need it myself, but it's a bonus to use with non-Bluetooth capable devices. (This also comes with an impressive 12 month warranty too.) Very pleased with this purchase! The one downfall is it states it's wooden, but it appears to have a laminate wood grain finish - unsure if there is real wood under it or not. -

If you love to put on makeup, then you know the struggle of finding makeup brushes that work well!
I love the selection of brushes, there is one for any makeup application you want to do. Although it may be a little excessive for everyday use, (I find I only use around 5 brushes on a daily basis) and have yet to try a few of them, it's perfect for special events and for creating special looks. The brushes are good quality, they hold the makeup and apply nicely, and I haven't experienced any loose or broken bristles. The carrying case is a fabulous bonus to keeping the set organized... and it keeps my cat from playing with them :)
The set includes:
Blending brush, Large eyeshadow brush, Detail brush, Lip brush, Nose contour brush, Smudging brush, Angled brush, Lash and eyebrow brush, Loose powder brush, Bronzer brush, Foundation brush, Concealer brush, Blush brush, Angled foundation brush, Contouring brush, Highlighting brush.
