Cypress Essential Oil by Simply Earth

I have been able to review Cypress Essential Oil by Simply Earth.

This cypress oil smells pretty good. Just from initially smelling it when I first got it, it seemed to open up my sinuses. Cypress oil can be used for stress relief, odor control and respiratory ailments. My son is asthmatic and I plan on using it with his next asthma attack. I also read it was good for menstrual cramps. This month I got the chance to try that out. When I started having cramps, I rubbed it on my belly over the areas where the cramps were. I was honestly surprised how well it worked. It also seemed to lessen the amount of flow I had. I will continue to use this monthly just for that reason. I know it is supposed to help with foot odor. I have not tried that yet, but definitely plan on it when I remember. Simply Earth bottles their oil in a 15ml amber glass bottle. It comes with a euro dropper. They also bottle the oil in the USA. I received this oil for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. Everything in this review is 100% my experience and opinion. #simplyearth

Camphor Essential Oil by Simply Earth

I was given the opportunity to try and review Camphor Essential Oil from Simply Earth.

It can be used as a stimulant, antispasmodic, antiseptic, decongestant, anesthetic, sedative and nervous pacifier, anti-neuralgic, anti-inflammatory, disinfectant, and insecticide substance. Camphor blends well with basil, cajeput, chamomile, lavender, melissa, and rosemary. It comes in a 15ml amber glass bottle, and is bottle in the USA. I love the smell. I am very scent sensitive and I am able to handle the smell with no headaches or nausea. I have been pretty sick lately and I am battling a cold now. This camphor oil has been a great decongestant. I have been diffusing it when I am feeling extremely congested and it helps right away. I also get really bad feet cramps and charlie horses. I have rubbed some camphor oil on my calves as soon as a charlie horse sets in and feet as soon as my feet cramps set in. It has lessened the cramps pretty quickly. There is one thing I am a little confused about. On the product page on Amazon, the company lists that the oil is non toxic. Since I have never heard of camphor oil before, I did some research on the uses. In my research, I found that camphor oil is very toxic. If it is ingested in excess, it can be fatally toxic. I have been very satisfied so far with any oil I have tried from Simply Earth. I received this oil for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. Everything in this review is 100% my experience and opinion. #simplyearth

Peppermint Essential Oil by Simply Earth

I was given the opportunity to try out Peppermint Essential Oil by Simply Earth.

It has been a great addition to my collection. Since it is Christmas time, I have been diffusing it so my house smells like Christmas. I also have been working overnight shifts and I keep it in my purse for when I need a second wind. I just smell it a little bit and it helps perk me up some more. With cold weather and rain, I have been getting some unwanted little visitors of the bug persuasion, so I put some oil into a spray bottle with water and sprayed it around my windows and doors. It has kept the bugs away. I love it. I can not wait to research other uses for peppermint oil. It comes in a 15 ml Amber glass bottle. It is also bottled in the USA. I think that is great. It is 100% Pure - Non-Toxic - No Additives - Unfiltered and Undiluted with No Fillers. It comes with a Euro dropper cap. Something great that Simply Earth does is donate 13% of the profit from every product purchased to organizations that are rehabilitating trafficking victims because the average age of these beautiful woman is 13 years old. That is fantastic. http://simplyearth.com/products/peppermint-essential-oil-supreme #simplyearth I received this oil for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Lemon Essential Oil by Simply Earth

I recently had the chance to try out Lemon Essential Oil by Simply Earth.

I am pretty new to using essential oils and was very excited to be able to try out this one. So far I love this Lemon essential oil from Simply Earth. I have only used it for cleaning in my kitchen so far but it has been fantastic. It smells so good. As soon as I opened the bottle it smelled like fresh lemons. The first thing I tried it on was my daughter's sippy cup. At our church nursery, someone had put a name label on it. It was very sticky and would not come off. I put a little bit of this oil on it and rubbed it around where the sticker was and it came right off. I washed it as normal then and it was good as new. I did not even need any elbow grease. It also smelled so clean. I have added it to my kitchen cleaning routine and everything looks fantastic and smells fantastic. Some details about this Lemon essential oil. It comes in a 15ml bottle. A lot of times you get 10ml bottle when you get essential oils. It is 100% pure therapeutic grade. It is non toxic, unfiltered and undiluted with no fillers. It is packaged in the USA in an amber glass bottle. It comes with a Euro dropper. Simply Earth is a small, eco-friendly, purpose-driven family company. Something I found really exciting is that 13% of their profits go to help women create beautiful lives through giving to world changing organization which help rehabilitate human trafficking victims. I will be looking into more uses in the near future to expand my use of this great oil. http://simplyearth.com/products/lemon-essential-oil #simplyearth I received this oil for FREE in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Babybazoo-Back Seat Car Mirror

I recently was able to try out and review the Babybazoo-Back Seat Car mirror for free in exchange for my honest review.

This mirror also came with a few gifts. I got two sun visors for my car windows, a paci clip, and a microfiber cloth to clean the mirror.

From the moment I took the mirror out of the box I loved it. You can see in the picture above how big it is. It is bigger than the one I have in my other car. I can see more in this mirror. Audrey also seemed like she could see me in this one. This mirror took me a little more time to install than my other mirror. My other car mirror just has one strap that goes under and around the headrest and Velcros. This mirror has two straps that click together and you have to tighten them. I had to hold the mirror still where I needed it while I clipped the straps and tightened them. Once I got it where I wanted it and tight, it fit perfectly. The mirror can also move the around until you get the line of sight you need.

I have not used the paci clip since Audrey does not use paci's. It is a cute clip with owls on it. It is a universal infant Pacifier Holder. There is a safe and convenient Cotton strap and safe plastic clip. The sun shades seem to be a good quality, but the boys will not leave them on the windows. They are very dark so when they are on the window it helps keep sun out of Audrey's eyes a lot. They protect against UV rays, sunlight and glare. It uses static cling so you do not have to use suctions cups. They will fit most cars. The microfiber cloth is your typical microfiber cloth. When you use the microfiber cloth to clean your mirror, there will not be any scratches or marks left on it. It is great that it came with the mirror so I would not have to get one. If I had tried this mirror first before I bought the one I already had, I would have bought two of these. I just love the size of it. I defiently reccommend this mirror for everyone with rear facing kids. I received this mirror for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Priority Chef Knife Sharpener, 2 Stage Sharpening System for knives

I was given the chance to try out and review the Priority Chef Knife Sharpener, 2 Stage Sharpening System.  It has been great.  As soon as we got it in, Paul was pulling knives out to sharpen.  Before I received the sharpener in, I was sent an email to explain how to use it.  Here are the tips I was sent ahead of time.

"Couple of tips on the use of the knife sharpener

When you buy a new product we are all eager to test it out, but there are a couple of things regarding the use of  the knife sharpener that we want you to be aware before it arrives!

1. Only use the coarse section for very blunt knives! This section actually removes small amounts of steel from the knife and should only be used on completely dull knives!

2. After using the coarse section, run the knife 2-4 times through he fine section until you are happy with the sharpness. 

3. If your knives still have a little sharpness to them, only use the fine section between 2-4 times. This should be enough to bring those knives back to life!

4. Important!! When sharpening knives with our sharpener only pull the knives towards you when in the sharpener - DO NOT push the knives through or use 2 way motion. Just place the knife in the sharpener and pull.

5. There is no need to press the knife down with any great strength. This will removes more steel than necessary!"

It was packaged nicely.  

I followed the directions I was given and it was very easy to use the sharpener.  It did not require any pressure at all.  I do have a knife or two that will require a little more work, but all the other ones I sharpened turned out great.  This sharpener is very easy to hold and is comfortable in my hand.  It is very light weight and fits right in my silverware drawer.  I felt that this was very safe to use also.  I received this sharpener for Free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.  

As an added bonus, in the box was a card with a web address to download a free ebook. The ebook has tips on how to have a healthier lifestyle and 30 recipes that you can prepare and cook in 30 minutes. 

This would be great for any chef in your life for Christmas.

I also have an added bonus!
