EnjoyingTea.com- Delicious Gourmet Tea Review & Giveaway- Ends 11/16



I had been meaning to try loose leaf tea for quite some time now. However, I never had the guts to go out and buy different flavors without knowing whether or not I would like them! So, when I had the opportunity to review several teas from EnjoyingTea.com, I was ecstatic!

I was given 6 different types to test out: Apple Spice Black Tea, Anxi Wulong Tea, Chun Mee Green Tea, Provence RooibosLongevity Brow White TeaYoung Ripened Pu-erh Tea. Each has its own unique taste and flavor. I was pleasantly surprised more than once, especially given that my standard morning tea is just lipton black tea.


My personal favorite is the Anxi Wulong Tea. It tastes great with just a touch of sugar! I will need to purchase more shortly. The teas each came packaged in cute petite tins. They all arrived in a single box that also includes a chart with recommended steep time and amount of tea leaves to include. This would be the perfect gift set for any tea lover! Be sure to take a look at their complete website to see their wide array of teas and accessories. I found a few tea sets that I adore!

Stainless Steel Coffee Canister by Coffee Gator Review

Since I have started drinking coffee, there is one thing that I noticed. When you first open a new bag of coffee grounds, they taste so fresh and smooth. Then after the bag has been open and exposed to the air, the taste starts to change and just doesn't taste as great. No matter how well you try to seal the bag, you just cannot get it sealed properly.
Having fresh coffee in the morning is always something to look forward to. That is why I am so happy to have found this coffee canister by Coffee Gator! The canister is easy to open and it seals tightly with a vacuum seal. This keeps the air out and your coffee fresh. The canister is not too big that it is awkward to handle, it holds a full bag of coffee and stores nicely.
Another bonus is the date wheel that is on top. You can easily mark the canister with the expiration date of the beans inside without worrying that they will go bad. We usually don't have that problem at my house, the coffee is long gone before then! The canister is made of premium stainless steel that goes well with any style kitchen.






Be sure to check out the listing for the coffee canister by Coffee Gator! It is currently sold out, but I am sure more are coming! They also offer a risk free 100% money back guarantee, so you have nothing to lose!

Royal Locks Curly Hair Cream Review



Being a girl with curly hair can be tough at times. You want to keep your hair up to date with the latest style, but your hair doesn't like that idea and tends to set its own trends. It poofs when it's humid and gets unruly if not styled with the proper products. Those who do not have curly hair themselves, can never truly understand.

With the latest Argan Oil trend, I found that it does great things for my hair. It keeps my flyaways tamed and makes my hair look smooth and shiny. The only problem is that its an extra product to add to my hair. So, I have been applying argan oil, and then either a mousse or hair gel to finish it off. Extra products means extra work and extra time.

This is where Royal Locks Curly Hair Cream comes in. It is a 3 in 1 curly hair product that stops frizz, moisturizes with Moroccan Argan Oil and defines with a specially formulated cream gel. And all of this is done in one simple step. You only need a small amount of the cream, about one pump to cover your entire head. It is easy to distribute through wet hair. I let mine air dry, although you could use a diffuser for fuller curls.

Afterward, my curls were well defined and were not crunchy like some gels leave them. My hair also felt soft to the touch and smelled amazing! I love that there are now less steps to my hair routine while getting the same- if not better- results. I highly recommend Royal Locks Curly Hair Cream to any curly haired girls out there looking for the ultimate product!

imPRESS New Press-On Manicures



I have never really been a fan of press on nails. They look nice when first applied, by you are bound to lose at least one by the end of the night! Who wants to be seen with half a manicure?!

So, when I was presented with the chance to review a new type of press on nail- that is made to last up to a week and is waterproof- I jumped at the opportunity. It was at least worth testing out, right?! I have to say that, YES! imPRESS nails are worth it!
ImPRESS nails are more flexible than standard press on nails. Each pack comes with 24 nails to ensure that you find the size you need for every finger. The nails are also numbered on the back so you can quickly find the matches.


A few of the countless benefits of imPRESS:
- Simply peel backing and press on
- No drying time and no mess
- Safe on natural nails
- Mega gel shine
- UltraHold Technology keeps nails on
- $7.99 / Walgreens- But I've already seen them on sale for $5.99!

My experience using these nails was great! They ended up staying on for a full 5 days before I ended up loosing one. I even showered and went about my normal day. The color stayed vibrant and I did not notice any scratches that developed on the top. They really did look just like gel nails for a fraction of the cost, and no damaging side-effects! I will definitely be purchasing these again.
For more information, and to check out all of the available styles, be sure to check out their website: www.imPRESSmanicure.com !
