Sally Hansen Pink Cadillaquer Miracle Gel Duo Review

#ncgreviews
4 star review

At first I was VERY displeased with this product.
When I used this the first time, the pink flat out wouldn't cover my nails. It was thin, and streaky, and 2 coats looked HORRIBLE. I was ready to give up on at home shellac.
My second go around however, I decided I will try more than 2 coats of the color. I wasn't sure if it would "activate" with the top coat, but I gave it a try anyway. I figured at this point, what did I have to lose?
I put on coat 1. Let it dy for at least 15 minutes. Then coat 2. Let this dry for 20. Then coat 3. I let this one dry for 45 minutes. I'm not sure if I needed to go that long. I just didn't want it to end up all tacky to the touch.
After 3 coats of color, it was thick enough and looked absolutely beautiful. No more streaks. Score!...
After all of the drying (I know it's a long time, but worth it), I added the top coat. I also made sure to run some top coat over the ends/edges to make them a little stronger. I do love that the top coat is included in this package! I let the top coat dry for almost an hour before doing anything.

Why did this still only get 4 stars? Well first, because the instructions on the back are more like suggestions. The color Polish is way too thin for only 2 coats.
Secondly, and this is just my experience, the color chips off too quick. I don't work in a strenuous job where my hands are taking a beating, so I expected the color to last much longer before chipping off.
I do have a few ideas to keep that from happening, and if they work, I will update.

Overall I like this polish, and I'm glad that I purchased it. Much cheaper than in stores as well!! Good luck!

I'm backkkk!!!

So, long story short. I ended up with a staph infection, pulmonary edema, and pneumonia. I spent quite some time in the ICU, had surgery, and then been down for a while at home. Also was diagnosed with diabetes, so I'm trying to get that under control as well.

However, I am now back, and will be doing reviews and such on my blog again. I can't wait to get back to some kind of normal! Keep your eyes peeled!

Snug Plug n Play Kids Headphones Review

These headphones are pretty great. My youngest boy loves them.
They are very 'kid' friendly. My son is 10 years old, and they are perfect for him.
They fit his head fantastically, and they have great sound.
The color choices are great for any child of any age.
These DO NOT fit an adult head, or at least not mine or my husbands. They fit all three of my children and for that I think they are great, as they are supposed to be kids headphones.
The cord is very thick and seems like it's pretty sturdy, and would last quite some time with the wear and tear from my children.
Each ear phone is padded very well to keep from causing any kind of pain.
These are compatible with any device that handles a headphone jack.
Overall these are fantastic headphones that I recommend for children everywhere.

PECHAM E915 Bluetooth Earphones Review

My son fell in love with these headphones immediately when we received them. He stole them from me the second I tried them out to make sure they work well.
They easily connected to my phone and to his phone. I have also tried my tablet, and they worked on it well also.
They come with different ear covers, so you can put the ones in that fit your ear better. My son wears a smaller pair than I do.
The bright blue is pretty IMO, but my son likes that it's a boy-ish color and he doesn't have to worry about anyone making fun of the color he is carrying.
He officially carries them with him EVERYWHERE he goes, so that he can listen to music on his phone.
The sound is full of life, and crisp and clear.
Overall I recommend these, and so does my son.

40 Tan 2" X 2" Re-Usable Carbon Electrode Pads Review

These are great electrode pads. They work with both of my PLUG IN STYLE tens units. They WILL NOT work with the snap on kind at all. They are very large, which I love. Much larger than the ones that came with my unit. These are re-useable as well. Depending on how clean your skin is, and if you put them away properly, will depend on how long they will last. I figure I will get 10-20 uses out of them at least, before I have to start with a new pack. Each pack contains 4 stuck on one plastic sheet inside the ziplock bag.
Overall these are great TENS pads, and I highly recommend them.

10 Snap-On Re-Usable White Carbon Electrode Pads Review

These Santamedical TENS unit electrode pads work very well. They snap right onto my TENS unit with ease. They are soft and cloth, and re-useable. I imagine I will get several uses out of these before they don't stick anymore. It depends on how clean your skin is, and if you put the plastic cover back on the sticky side of them. I imagine these would work with any SNAP ON TENS unit. Not the plug in kind.
Overall these are great TENS pads, and I recommend them. They are even in cute little hand shapes!
