Benefits of mixing your own massage oil

Posted on June 24, 2020November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] I have back pain. I think it’s a pain most of us can really understand and relate with. When I was young, I was kicked by a horse and have had back pain ever since. One of the best ways to get rid of this back pain is through back massages. Not only do massages feel relaxing and great, but revealing pain is a big part of why I constantly want and enjoy back rubs! If you are a fan of massages, one of the key things to take your massage up to the next level is through using massage oil. I’ve enjoyed a variety of massage oils over time, but found that SOiL has some great options, especially when it comes to mixing your own oil to have the perfect blend for yourself. When it comes to mixing your own massage oil, you need two different oils; a carrier oil and an essential oil.

The positives (and negatives) of a silk pillowcase

Posted on June 22, 2020August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Pillowcases are a necessity in every and all houses. They keep your pillows clean and allow you to easily wash the outside of them, as well as look cute on your bed. Most people purchase cheap cotton pillowcases for their pillows, but there is actually a lot of benefits to purchasing a silk pillowcase, treating yourself to something a bit more luxurious, that will last longer and provide lasting health benefits to the person using them. I’ve now switched to a 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase from Calidad Home. Let’s go over some of the positives of this lovely pillow case and some of the not so positives.

Upcircle Face Mask | Review

Posted on June 19, 2020August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] It’s a fact that we love face masks. We’ve written about our favourite masks recently as well, but wanted to branch out and find more fantastic masks to review and possibly update the list of our favourites a bit more. I found that I prefer clay or similar masks to sheet masks – and they seem to really last longer as well as feel better on my face. As Dann hadn’t done very many (at all) face masks before, he’s been really enjoying cleaning up his skin and having little pampering sessions. Our newest face mask from Upcircle actually has a pretty interesting concept behind it.

Slam It! Family Friendly Game | Review

Posted on June 17, 2020August 27, 2024 by Dann Sullivan

[Ad- gifted product] There’s a lot of different tabletop games out there now, and more people than ever playing them. Slam It! from Ideal is certainly a bit more Table Top Toy rather than a board game, but it was a welcome addition to the physical games rotation that we’ve set up with the kids this year.

Slam It! has a lot going for it. Much like a lot of Ideal’s current kids range it is designed to be compact, contained and quick to learn. Once the outer packaging is removed Slam It! is reduced to a simple yellow case which clicks open and shut. Within it, there are pre-divided compartments, where you can separate out the cards which are introduced in each of the different difficulty games. Some of these are bombs, others reverse the direction of play and others mean that a turn is skipped. It’s incredibly simple to pick up and play, as simple as Say it, See it, Slam it.

Vivacats Birthday Box | Review

Posted on June 15, 2020November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

If you read my previous review of last month’s Vivacats box, you are probably weren’t expecting another. I felt these boxes weren’t worth the price tag, but as it turns out, I received my Vivacats box the day after the last day you cancel by, so they charged me and sent me another box. Now, unsubscribing to Vivacats has been a whole ordeal. You have to email them – but they never replied to me. Another week went by, no reply. I reached out on Facebook Messager and was told that they had over 900 emails, so they couldn’t get to mine right now. As it got close to charging time for the 3rd box, I messaged again and the conversation went in circles where they asked for my email, I provided it, they didn’t reply for hours, I asked if I was unsubscribed, they asked for my email, I then replied with it (again), they didn’t reply… Eventually, after another week, they finally confirmed I was, in fact, unsubscribed, so this will be my final box – I feel! Anyway, let’s get into the box.

This month’s theme is Birthday, which has a few mystery items within it. I have the UK box – as different countries have various different items inside their box. There was an item I didn’t receive as well as some opinions on ‘surprise’ snacks, but we will get into that.
