Review: Santa Medical Blood Pressure Monitor

Image
This is a review of the Santa Medical Blood Pressure Monitor BW-210 . I've never owned a blood pressure monitor that you use on your wrist. My grandmother owned one though and I remember trying her's on and loved that it was user friendly. This Santa Medical bp monitor is portable and convenient, has a display of the date and time, a large LCD display, stores up to 60 memory sets and it has a low battery warning to let you know when to change batteries.  It came with 2 AAA batteries, the monitor and a hard shell case to keep your monitor in.  It's so simple to use and you don't have to worry about plugging it in anywhere. You can take this with you wherever, whenever you need to. It's a great item to have around the house to monitor your blood pressure. The only negative that I can really think of is that it's a little difficult to put the bottom battery into the compartment but other than that, it works great and does what its supposed to do.

Review: Aloe Vera Gel by Lalune Naturals

Image
Using aloe vera gel for me has always been directly from the plant itself for its healing properties. Aloe vera gel is used for razor burns, eczema, sunburns or simply as a daily moisturizer.  The Lalune Naturals aloe vera gel is grown and produced in the USA and it's fragrance free. It comes with a cap and also a dispensing pump so you can choose which way you want to dispense this out. The aloe gel is not thick. It's on the thin side and you don't need too much of it. If you use too much, your hands or whatever you apply it to will be quite sticky. It is pretty thin and 'runny' as you can see. It was nice to try this out but I don't see myself using this on a daily basis. Disclosure:  I received this product for review. My opinions are 100% honest and my own.

Review: Love and Blessed August box

Image
For the month of August, Love + Blessed's subscription box theme is 'Patience'. On the encouragement card, we learn that  more patience = more peace!  This is the 'Patience' sticker that says, "Use it before you lose it". Oh my word. How true is that statement?! It's something I need to think of before I get all flustered and when I feel like I'm starting to lose patience. On our mini poster, it states, "You only need enough LIGHT for the step that you're on." What a nice reminder to not get ahead of ourselves but focus on where we're at this moment and not rush to get to the next step. Here's our Scripture on patience and it comes from the book of Ephesians. "Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love. Ephesians 4:2 NLT I am reminded that I need to be patient with others and show them the grace and love that

Weight Watchers ice cream review

Image
I recently had the chance to review some Weight Watchers ice cream products! Influenster sent me 2 FREE coupons to pick any two that I would like.  I chose the 'Dark Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bars' and the 'Vanilla Round Ice Cream Sandwiches'. They have such a variety of ice creams to choose from but since I love dark chocolate, it was an easy pick when I chose the Raspberry ice cream bars! It was light and delish, no artificial sweeteners and no guilt about eating it! My family members got a hold of these and devoured them! The vanilla ice cream sandwiches were really good as well! I used to love eating ice cream sandwiches and with a low fat one, that's come out by Weight Watchers, you can eat it and not feel like you shouldn't have it. My family loved these as well!  I recommend these as a healthy option for substituting regular ice cream.  Disclosure: I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
