My Thoughts

First off, the charm is so pretty. It's tiny, but it's definitely cute. You can tell that the charm was delicately crafted. Each Swarovski crystal was set with care and I just know that the crystals won't fall off easily. They are all perfectly clear and they sparkle. I placed it with my other charms and it looked great. I'm sure it will also look great as a necklace charm.

Konjac Facial Sponge With Activated Bamboo Charcoal Review

I may already be in my forties, but there are times that I still break out. I read somewhere that Konjac Facial sponges with activated bamboo charcoal work to eliminate acne and slough off dead skin cells and give you a glowing and well nourished skin. I was recently sent a sample of Konjac Facial Sponge With Activated Bamboo Charcoal to test and review.

Product Description

The sponge is 100% natural by fermenting the edible konjac fiber, No chemical additives added! Gently Massage and Exfoliation: improve the blood circulations and remove the dead cuticles. Deep cleansing: the very soft surface can remove the pore-clogging impurities. Natural weak alkalinity: the konjac sponge has natural weak alkalinity so it can help to keep the weak alkalinity status of the human body, and it can also clean your face and body even without any cleansing milk or shampoo.

My Thoughts

The sponge is hard, but once you submerge it in warm water, it will turn soft after a few minutes. I used it to exfoliate my face in a circular motion with a drop of my facial cleanser, then I rinsed it as usual.

My skin felt soft and smooth after washing and in as little as 1 week, my face cleared up. I love the sponge and I love how it leaves my face squeaky clean and smooth. The sponge comes with a string, so you can hang it to dry after use. Once in a while, you can also sterilize it by soaking it in boiling water for a few minutes.

Overall, I had a good experience with the sponge. If you are looking for a more natural way to fight pimples and acne, this a good product to try. It's affordable, it's all natural and it contains no harmful chemicals.

Where to buy?

You can purchase the Konjac Facial Sponge With Activated Bamboo Charcoal through the Wonderpiel website and on Amazon. The sponge is fairly priced at $10.00.

My Thoughts

I'm glad to be reviewing Wearever's newest addition, the Seamless Unique Dry Panties™. It's seamless, the material is soft and it's not irritating to the skin.

I am not new to using Rosehip oil and I love how it keeps my skin supple. This one from InstaNatural is non-greasy and made from organic ingredients. It's easy to apply on the skin and it does not leave an oily look. I apply it right after showering and I love that it keeps my skin moisturized all day long. It's been almost a week and the dry spots on my skin and the roughness on my elbows are gone. They say it's great at fighting fine lines and wrinkles, too, so I used it on my face as well. My skin feels soft and smooth. Although I have not seen improvements, yet, I'm pretty sure I will in the following weeks to come.

Overall, I had a wonderful experience with the oil. It's gentle on the skin and it effectively moisturizes the skin. I recommend this.

Choose The Perfect Bedsheets

Your bed is where you retire after a long day and where you wake up to start a new day. And during weekends or no school days, this is where you spend most of your time lying around, reading a book or watching TV. So, it's only right to make your space as neat and comfortable as possible.

Using sheets that are clean and soft makes your bed comfortable and cozy. It's the sheets and pillows that come in direct contact with your skin and if you're using sheets that are rough, getting a good night's rest is not possible. Soft sheets don't have to be expensive. You can actually find affordable bedding at www.ogotobedding.com.

Cotton is the most popular fabric in the market because it's durable and soft. Nowadays, cotton blends with other materials like rayon and bamboo to produce different types of textures. The key is to touch the fabric and see how it feels on your skin. If you think it is soft and comfortable enough, then you're in good company.

I like choosing bamboo because it is sustainable and in case you don't know, bamboo is naturally antimicrobial. The material sips up moisture, it is soft and comfortable so,when choosing a bedding, this material is well worth investing in.
