Angelicare Spider Vein Treatment System Review

I received the Angelicare Spider Vein Treatment System to review. I was really excited about this. Since highschool (I blame it on the waitressing job) I developed spider veins on my outer left thigh.

I never really thought there was anything I could do about it short of laser treatments.  I really didn’t want to go through that or could I afford to do it.  So I live with them, ugly as they are. 

The Angelicare Spider Vein Treatment System was developed by an Assisted Living Home Administrator that used it on herself.  They had tried laser and saline treatments, but they just didn’t work.  The Angelicare developer noticed that spider veins occured on parts of the body that received little activity and wondered if the skin may be thinner in those particular areas.  Running off of that theory, they developed a cream that had every vitamin and antioxidant that nourished skin. 

The Angelicare Spider Vein Treatment System I received contained a Angelicare Stimulator, two containers of the Angelicare Ultra Nutricreme, instructions, and a booklet on supplementation. 

The use is pretty simple.  Apply a small amount of the cream to the affected area.  Use the Angelicare Stimulator on affected area for several minutes.  Then after massage reapply another small amount of cream to the area.  This process should be done twice a day.  They recommend hand massage the area a few times throughout the day and towel therapy after showers as well. 

I’ve only been using the product for a little over two weeks. The developer states that the time frame for results will vary.  The developer said it took 4 months to eliminate facial veins and is still working on leg veins but they are much lighter since starting the system.  In the two weeks that I’ve been trying the system I can’t say that I’ve noticed a difference yet.  This company requested the review within 2 weeks of using.  I plan on continuing with the system.  It’s easy to use and actually feels rather good to use.  The Angelicare stimulator has heat settings and massage level settings.  There is no pain involved in the system.  It’s kind of like a nice massage.

If I notice any results in the next few months I will update this post. 

If you want to try the Angelicare Spider Vein Treament System for yourself you can purchase it here:

Need a blog button? try ibanner

When I first started to get serious with my blog, I knew that having a shareable blog button was important to start getting my name out there and building my “brand”. I had little to no knowledge on how to do it. Then Andrea from http://ibanners.webs.com/ offered her services and created my shareable blog button that matches my blog theme.

Then when I did my Bonanzle event I wanted a button made for the event.  I still didn’t know how to do it.  I recruited Andrea from http://ibanners.webs.com/ again.  Not only did she create a button but she made several so that I could choose which one(s) I wanted to use. ibanner’s prices are very reasonable.

I’ve since learned how to create buttons but it does take time which I don’t always have.  I will continue to use http://ibanners.webs.com/  for my button needs.  

ibanner isn’t just buttons though.  She can create banners, “your ad here” spots and more.  So if you’re in need of a button, badge, or banner try http://ibanners.webs.com/ first.

GLEE Make Your Own Chocolate kit review and giveaway—CLOSED

I love finding new and creative projects to do with my boys. Especially with the colder months coming up.  When GLEE Gum asked me if I would like to review one of their “Make Your Own” kits I was more than happy to.  I chose to review the Make Your Own Chocolate Kit.  This kit came complete with all the items you need to make the chocolate including all the ingredients, candy wrappers, and a sticker thermometer.  They even have 2 real cacao beans for you to try in the kit.

The only thing it didn’t come with was the tsp of vanilla for added flavor but it’s optional.

My boys were so excited to try to make their own chocolate from scratch.  I have to admit I was curious too.  The directions were easy to follow.  My boys were able to do a lot of the steps.

There is a point where you have to wait for about 10 min for the chocolate mixture to cool.  In that time I read some of the fun facts packet of info that was included in the kit.  Like where cacao beans come from and more.  I also had the boys taste the cacao beans that came with the kit.

Um…the cacao beans aren’t so tasty before they are chocolate.  You can see my older son in the back already snearing at the bean.  I tasted it too.  Let’s just say it doesn’t taste like chocolate.

We added peanut butter 1/2 of  ours.  You can add other items if you want.  The chocolate turned out very sweet.  It didn’t last very long in our house. 

The boys are already asking about trying out another kit.  GLEE has three available:

Available in Make Your Own Chocolate, Make Your Own Chewing Gum, and Make Your Own Gummies, these activity kits are all-natural, educational, and eco-friendly. With pre-packaged ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, everyone aged 8 and up gets a real kick out of making candy from scratch. Focusing on the history behind and the origin of these candies, each kit is designed to captivate your interest, connect you to the global community, and create something yummy to eat in the process!

Oliver’s Labels Review

There are many companies that offer labels now. Mailing labels, personalizations, labels for containers, whatever.  While most of them are nice, there’s really nothing that seemed to set company “A” apart from company “B”. 

I had the opportunity to try Oliver’s Labels.  They had really cute designs to choose from.  Click here to check out the designs available from Oliver’s Labels.  I chose the Transportation set to label items for my youngest.  I had read on the site that their labels were waterproof.  I thought, well, there’s an added benefit that not all labels have.  I received my set in the mail. The set I got to review included shoe labels, original labels, clothing labels,  and mini labels. 

The first thing I did was to stick one on one of my son’s sippy cups.  He has a cousin about the same age.  It’s sometimes not easy to tell who’s things are whose. 

The labels are well made and almost felt like a thin plastic.  I was skeptical as to how well they would really stay on the items.  The sippy cup above has been washed at least 10 times since the label had been applied.  The label still looks like the day I put it on the cup. 

The next thing I did was to test out the clothing label.  I took one of the clothing label tabs I put it on the tag in my son’s zip-up hoodie. 

I was impressed with the way it stayed in his jacket.  I thought for sure it would peel off and I’d find it stuck to his shirt when I took it off.  The label is still in place even after wearing it about 4 times since the label was placed. 

The shoe labels were very cute.  Feet shaped, they are meant to stick on the soles of shoes.  I placed them in my son’s shoes.  Again I thought, these would not stay.  With him creeping around, constantly undoing his shoes, and such, I thought the labels would have gone missing the first time he wore them.  Again, they are still in tact and do not seem to bother my son at all. 

Here he is at a local farm we went to for their pumpkin fest wearing the jacket and shoes with the labels on.

Another added benefit of Oliver’s Labels is the optional Found-it code that can be added to the labels.  It is a free and optional service Oliver’s Labels offers.  It’s a lost and found code.  If someone finds an item with the label that has the Found-it code, there is a message on the tag that directs the person to go to olivers labels website.  The person types in the code that’s on the label and you receive an email alert that tells you someone found the missing item.

I’m not aware of any other label company that offers this free service. 

They offer many other tags as well such as: Safety wristbands, bag tags, Kosher kitchen, labels, custom photo labels, iron-on clothing labels, allergy stickers, and more.

Where to buy:  You can purchase Oliver’s Labels through their website:  www.oliverslabels.com

Review Summary:   Oliver’s Labels definitely get the thumbs up from me.  Durable, cute, personalizable, the optional found-it code, and only $19.99 for 40 of the original labels.  This item is a good deal.  With the found it code and stay put labeling, they will probably ending saving you money in the long run.  (Really, I mean how many times have you picked your kid up from daycare or the babysitters and they didn’t know what happend to your child’s favorite sippy cup or bottle only to discover it was sent home with another child). 

These would be great to add to a mom-to-be’s gift or even get them for yourself for those moochers in the office. 

***I received a set of personalized Oliver’s labels at no cost to complete a proper review.  I did not receive any monetary compensation for this post.  All opinions expressed are my own. ***
