"Bohemian" Summer Women's Dress by BabiesRHere

LOL where do I begin on this dress?  I was asked to review this product... for free... except I had to pay shipping.  Original price? $33.33.  Price paid? $9.94.  Net worth? $5. I was super excited to get this dress.  It was super cute and would go well with a new pair of sandals I bought.  I thought, $10 for a dress?  Hell yeah why not?  The contact information was in Illinois, and the site looked legit.  Shipping took about a week.  Not too shabby.  But as soon as I got it in the mail, I knew I just got screwed over.  The dress was shoved into a plastic bag about the size of half a loaf of bread.  Strike one.  The shipping label was in Chinese.  Strike two.  I opened the bag and realized that the material feels super cheap.  Strike three. Then I put it on... I squeezed my so called "thicc" body into the dress and I felt the seams screaming.  My boobs were pressed to my body, becoming almost a square and inverting into my rib cage.  It became very obvious that a small a

Bamboo Toothbrush by EcoIsLife

Bamboo is a very abundant renewable resource. Why everything isn't made of it is beyond me.  These toothbrushes are though!  It is actually brilliant, the need for the handles on toothbrushes to be plastic is actually redundant.  We throw them away constantly, so they should be able to decompose easily! Eco is Life offers a high quality product.  The packaging and product itself is sustainable!  The bristles aren't comparable to your typical dentist-recommended Colgate toothbrush, but it definitely has potential to even replace those toothbrushes!  The bristles are soft and uniform, so I doubt I am getting the same cleaning as a regular toothbrush would give me, but it would be perfect as a travel toothbrush or a portable one for a quick clean.  I like using it so far, but I use it to whiten my teeth with charcoal powder.  Would recommend for those with sensitive teeth or for cleaning other things with!  You can get your own at amazon:   https://www.amazon.com/

World Scratch-Off Map by Just a Motion

I have always wanted a scratch off map.  I plan on travelling the world eventually, leaving no country left unexplored.  What better way of keeping track of where I've been than a map? This map is just like a lottery ticket (with less $$).  Once you have visited a state or country, you scratch off that area on the map.  It even includes the flags of the countries to scratch off! It's a great way to see how little you've actually travelled, haha.  The map also shows the different depths of the ocean and topography in certain areas and is a great education tool.  I had a lot of fun scratching off my areas, I can't wait to scratch off more! The little guitar pick scratcher thing they include is super precise.  It's super easy to scratch in between the borders, which is handy because there are a lot more countries than I thought, and they all are super close to each other. I absolutely love my map, and I hope I get the chance to scratch it all off!  You can g

Outdoor Solar String Lights

I love any product that is solar powered.  As an environmental science major, it's basically my duty to use the crap out of these products.  And recently, I have found an apartment with a balcony... so solar lights + a balcony?  Hell yes.  I found these lights by AYY, and they will work perfectly.   Here's the description on Amazon: 100 COLORFUL LED LIGHTS: 100 multi-color(Red/Green/Yellow/Blue) LED bulbs with 33 feet copper wire, automatically turn on when it's dark and turn off during the day after turning on the power switch. Definitely is very colorful, I love how they turn on and off automatically! TWO LIGHTING MODES: When turning on the light,you can press MODE button for two lighting modes at night---"always-on" or "flashing" with multicolor LED lights. The different modes are awesome, although I don't really change it from the always-on mode. HIGH EFFICIENCY SOLAR POWERED: No battery or electricity required, charged by t

iBeauty Labs Collagen Mask

So I got this product for .99 with a coupon code. I definitely think this product is overpriced, with a ticket price of $26.  It only comes with ONE mask, as opposed to the 6 I thought I was going to get, just a heads up.  The packaging for the product was quite wasteful and confusing, I ended up spilling liquid on everything.  Now, collagen masks (I have no opinion on them, I haven't seen them do anything for me personally) are the IN right now.  Since this one was so expensive I thought it would magically clear my skin of every scar and pimple.  Spoiler: It did not. This mask had the consistency of grape jelly (yes, it was a grape mask).  It was heavy and kept slipping off of my face.  I ended up just laying in bed to keep it on my face, but it still didn't lay down completely.  The eye holes and mouth holes were very small.  I'm not sure if I was supposed to do something to make them bigger, but it was uncomfortable having half of my features covered up.  One positi

Holly O Oolala Nude Self Adhesive Bra

" Holly O Oolala Nude Self Adhesive Ultra-Lite Invisible Backless Push-up Bra" I've been scared to use this kind of bra.  It sticks on you and creates rad cleavage, yes, but when it's time to take it off?  No thanks, I'd rather keep my nipples.  Not to mention the little tiny peach fuzz... ouch.  But I have recently found Holly O.  Holly O offers an affordable, good quality bra that every girl can enjoy.  They offer basically any size, instead of just the medium sized girls like me. I'm not including pictures of me in it since that view is reserved to one person only, lol. But lets just say my boobs look amazing and I wasn't screaming in pain as I took it off.  Included are pictures provided by amazon. This product comes in a sturdy keeper box, which is awesome because this bra is begging to be crushed in my dresser.  It's easy to clean (I always thought these bras were one time use only" and easy to put on.
