I was beyond pleasently surprised by this product, ECO Defense makes several different repellent products, this one seemed to cover just about everything from creepy crawlers and all the way up to deer. What you will receive is a 32oz spray bottle that is 100% organic, and natural; meaning it's chemical free and will safely repell animals like rats, deer, squirrels, moles, gophers and other pests.


I thought on first sight that where I would be using this would be impossible to actually live up to it's description... But that's not the case!

This is being used at my mother's home, in the country mountains of Tennessee. She has animals that come to close to comfort. Several field mice, raccoons (that steal there dogs food, and come right up to them without fear). So repelling those would be a must, and anything else would just be icing on the cake.

After we where spraying on our porch and around the back door we sprayed every other day, or after it rained (whichever came sooner)
From my understanding the scent is so bad for these animals they get tired of the small (and teast if used on or around a garden) and relocat without harming them.


After only a week our raccoon started staying further back, and wouldn't eat the food. Also by the second week of useing this spray regularly there was a noticeable change in little foot steps on the roof, and no mice! They really left. And it's been now 8 days no raccoon(s)

This is a must have, I don't believe in killing an animal unless it's necessary. And this being safe is the best I've ever came across.

I received this item free in exchange for my honest opinion. Everything stated is 100% truthful and my own personal views. Regardless I only recommend products or services I use/used personally and believe is a good product.

These Silicone Baby Food Freezer Tray with Clip on Lid is perfect for making your own baby food. Just whip up your favorite recipes, grind them in the blender to the exact texture that your baby prefers and pop them in the freezer. You can use them right from the tray, or you can wait until they are frozen, pop the food out and into another container, then use these to freeze individual portions. No more worrying about just what is in commercial baby food. With these you know exactly what you are getting. You control the texture and the ingredients. My babies always like their food just barely blended. They did not like a super smooth texture at all.




These aren't just for baby food though. You can use them to freeze your favorite sauces, fruit for your morning smoothy or chicken or veggie stock. You can also use them as ice cube or chocolate molds. Silicone is so versatile, you can use it in the oven or the freezer.


The clip on lid is so handy. I can't tell you how many times I have spilled on the way to the freezer. These lids also keep nasty smells and other things in your freezer out of your baby's food.


This Silicone Baby Food Freezer Tray is perfect for making your baby's food from scratch. It is also very useful for anything that you need to store in small sections in your freezer. Although I received a discount, this is my honest opinion.

Toddler Pillow - Delicate Organic Cotton



While my 5-year-old is a little big for this pillow, he still constantly steals it from our younger sons's bed and insists on using it just about everywhere - naps, lounging on the couch, car rides, you name it. If there's a spot that looks comfy, she's there with pillow in hand. It's made for a great travel pillow, and though she uses a full-sized pillow for sleeping at night, she likes to curl up with this one under her arm while she slumbers.

This pillow is pretty much half the size of a standard pillow. Lay two of these vertically side-by-side, and it takes up the same amount of room as most of our pillows from Kohl's. Though this pillow is sold without a pillowcase (and frankly, it's perfectly soft enough to use without one), you can slide it sideways into a standard pillowcase, tuck the excess pillowcase fabric back down inside with the pillow, and you'll have a perfect fit.

When I gave this to my son and asked him what he thought, he gave it her ultimate compliment: "Daddy, it's so comfy! ... I'm gonna take off my pants." Nothing says "ultimate comfort" like the need to immediately de-pants and snuggle up along with your favorite blanket.

Very pleased and highly recommended! When my 3-year-old can wrangle this from the older son's grasp, he absolutely loves it, too.

Ice Ball Maker & Sphere Ice Mold: By Bar Brat

Ice Ball Maker & Sphere Ice Mold: By Bar Brat


I was given the opportunity to review Ice Ball Maker & Sphere Ice Mold. I received this product at a discount for my review and hope my observations can help you make a buying decision.

What you get:

Ice ball / Sphere Ice Mold Tray
Instructions on box

What is this supposed to do?:

Create Slow Melting Ice Spheres for cocktails, coffee, water, or really any beverage. Freeze anything including ice, jelly, chocolate or even soap.



How does it work?

I own several products by Bar Brat, so I went in assuming this one would be the same – and it is! What a super cool idea and perfect for a gift, especially those that like cocktails.

The concept is quite simple. Place just about any liquid in the tray, close it up and freeze it. I decided to try cranberry juice because I enjoy having a Seabreeze cocktail, especially when the weather starts heating up. First, I put my cranberry juice in the ice molds and popped them in the freezer in the morning. Around 4 in the afternoon, I mixed my grapefruit juice and vodka in the glass. Then I popped in one of my frozen cranberry balls. I have to say, this was smart because it was delicious! Instead of having to put ice in my drink, the cranberry ice ball melted slowly into it – keeping it light, fresh and it didn’t become watered down. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

I love that you can freeze all different types of liquids and it say you can even do soap. I’m not a soap maker, but if you are, that would be pretty neat to do. I think the next thing I’m going to try is some chocolate and make chocolate martinis. We’ll see how that goes, but in the mean time, I’m really happy with freezing cranberry juice!


They come in a nice box so you could add the ice ball maker to a couple of high ball glasses, and some whiskey – Voila! you have a great gift. Thanks Bar Brat for another great product!

** Please note that I was supplied with this product free of charge in exchange for my complete honest and unbiased review. **

VinoMaster Wine Aerator Spout Pourer

VinoMaster Wine Aerator Spout Pourer



This product the Vinomaster Red Wine Aerator , by Vinomaster is a an impressive product! I bought 2 different red wines for us to enjoy with some delicious desserts as a treat once evening and it was easy to use. Amazon recently had a promotion for this product by Vinomaster, and I was able to purchase it on discount in exchange for an honest unbiased review.



This product comes in an impressively sturdy box that can be used to store the aerator and the wine stopper. This would even be a great gift for someone for a birthday, anniversary or a just because you thought of them type of gift for a wine enthusiast. This is easy to use and you can actually see the wine that is slowly coming out of the aerator after it has been exposed to the air by this impressive product. We tried a dry red wine and a medium dry wine and this product brought out the hidden ingredients that you may not notice if you had just poured the wine in the glass from the wine bottle by itself. This product reminded me of similar versions that I have seen at some wineries that use an aerator for taste testing of the wines.



Pros:
The aerator fit perfectly on the wine bottle, creating a strong seal to prevent leaks.
Ideal as a gift or to buy for someone who a wine enthusiast.
Easy to clean
This product comes with instructions on how to clean this aerator and to use this aerator properly.
Attractive design and it is an impressive product.
You can see the wine going slowly through the aerator as it is being exposed to the air.
This product left the wine full of flavor and you can taste the difference immediately in the wine, if you try a little of the wine right after a sip of the wine that went through the aerator.
Sturdy wine stopper that makes this set complete.
Dishwasher safe

Dead Sea Mud Facial Mask

I love how sturdy the tube is. It is very easy to squeeze the product out and it stays clean. The box it came in is also sturdy and does not get banged up when I put the tube back in. The shipping was super fast and I received this product before it was even due to come.


That was an awesome plus for me! If you would go to a spa, a dead sea mud mask could run you on the expensive side. Being a mother, I cant afford one of these in a spa and nor do I have the time. However, I can now get a mud mask that provides the ingredients and results of a $120 facial at home! This mud mask contains 30 treatments which lasts for 3-4 months. This mask was made in Israel and contains the highest and freshest concentration of Dead Sea Mud. I use this
Dead Sea Mud Mask once a week and it helps reduce the oil in my skin and helps with blackheads and pimples.


It also makes my skin more clear and radiant. I feel amazing after using this product! In between my weekly use, if a pimple or blackhead pop up I use this as a spot treatment for just that area. I have seen great results in the oil control of my skin as well with the blackheads and pimples. My daughter, who has psoriasis, uses this product twice a week on the areas of the psoriasis.

Dead Sea Mud has Dead Sea Salt and mud properties that are known to help relieve Psoriasis. On her legs is where she has it the worst and since using this product along with a great moisturizer we have seen incredible results. This mask helps with the flaky dry skin as well as the redness and itch that come with psoriasis. Her psoriasis on her legs along with other areas is almost gone.

Not even medications from the dermatologist gave us great results as this product does. She is a super happy camper as I am also! This product gets a 5/5 from my daughter and I. We will also be purchasing more products from this company! Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers

Disclaimer:Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. I love the packaging of this container.
