I Bought it, I Tried it: Gelo Hand Soap

This year, I bought a few different products that I kept seeing ads for. I’ll be honest, most of them I was pleasantly surprised with. All of these products I bought with my own money (they are not comped products). I figured if I kept seeing the ad on Facebook and Instagram then maybe other people have been curious too.

The first product I wanted to feature, was one of the first products I bought this year via a facebook ad. I kept seeing the ad, I liked the idea, when I saw the price I thought, what the heck I’ll give it a try. It also came at a time where we had just gotten through having a hard time finding hand soap during the pandemic. Not knowing if it would happen again and always needing a supply of hand soap on hand, I thought this might be a good way to stock up.

Gelo is hand soap with a unique approach. Biodegradable pods you can use to refill your hand soap bottles (or one of theirs) using just water. The scent choices were choices I liked. I also released I was spending anywhere between $1-$3 on bottles of soap at the store and throwing them away when they were done. Yo! I keep hand soap in the kitchen, downstairs bathroom, upstairs bathroom, and the laundry room!

Gelo products reduce the amount of waste of regular disposable hand soaps. If you have a reusable soap pump at home, you can even use the one year already have.

I did an instagram reel so you can get an idea of how it works:

The Gelo refill pods are made with plant based materials: shea, oat, and essential oils. Their pods are completely made up of biodegradable materials including the pod film. There are no sulfates, parabens, or fillers. When you order the refill bag it has enough for 4 refills. So I can literally refill all the soap dispensers I used in my house with one bag. Instead of throwing out 4 soap dispensers I’m only throwing out one bag.

They offer foaming hand soap or gel hand soap options for your preference or for the type of soap dispenser you already have at home. So one of my fave parts? It’s super affordable. I ordered two starter kits for our bathrooms a couple months ago and I’m just now getting to where I needed to order refills. So I ordered a starter kit for our kitchen and 2 more refill bags. $21 shipped and I have enough to refill 12 times. Even with shipping that breaks down to only $1.75/bottle!

Now I’m not an affiliate, ambassador, or anything else with them but I do have a referral link (that anyone can get when you order). It will save you $2 off your first order and give me 10% off my next order. Just go through my Gelo referral link here.

TreCeuticals Eye Love Infusing Eye Cream Review + Coupon Code

A couple months ago I received a free sample of TreCeuticals Eye Love Infusing Eye Cream to try. I’ve recently been making more effort to take care of myself. The TreCeuticals Infusing Eye Cream was just one easy step to add to my self-care regimen. When I review skincare products or supplements I like to try it for at least a month or 2 to get the full effect. I don’t like to just use a product for a couple days.

TreCeuticals Eye Love Infusing eye cream is packed with all kinds of good stuff for your skin. Peptides, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and even CBD. Good for your skin ingredients like green tea, jasmine, cucumber, and more. You can read more about their formula HERE. TreCeuticals Eye Love can help reduce puffiness, dark circles, and fine lines. I’m also not one to shy away from product that contain CBD. I’ve seen some benefits from CBD products. CBD is also rising in popularity with beauty products.

To be fair, I’m not the skin care guru but I’m very impressed with the size of this eye cream container. 15 ml/0.5 fl oz. I’ve bought other eye creams and I feel like the container sizes were smaller than this. I’m not one to be rigid about my regiment but I’d say I’ve used this product at least a 3-4 days a week for about a month now and I still have a decent amount of product left.

I also get excited about the little things sometimes. I LOVE how this eye cream dispenses. It kinda takes the guesswork out of how much to use. You simple push down on the top and a single use dispenses from the container. I like it because I don’t have to dip my fingers into a container and get product under may nails. Then I feel like I’m wasting it. Or getting too much or not enough from other containers.

The eye cream itself, absorbs nicely into my skin. It didn’t feel greasy. It has a faint fresh scent. I feel like after I apply it within about 15 min my skin feels more taut. I don’t tend to have puffiness around my eyes so I can’t comment on that part but it does have a firming effect. I did feel it had a soothing effect around my eyes when I was particularly tired.

My only complaint with this product is that, if I apply it in the morning then workout in the afternoon it tends to “run” and irritate my eyes a little bit. It says to use it twice a day but what I’d end up doing is putting it on in the morning. Washing my face before I workout. Then I’d apply it again at night. That might not be ideal but having it run in my eyes did bother me.

I’m Trying The Silk’n Infinity Hair Removal Device

Let me first give a shout out to Tryazon and Silk’n for choosing me to try the Silk’n Infinity Hair Removal Device and allowing me to host a party. I’m so excited to get the device for free. I can’t wait to see my results.

So what made me apply to host a Silk’n Infinity party through Tryazon? Well, I’ve been thinking about doing laser hair removal for at least a year, maybe longer. I’m 41 years old. I’m just tired of shaving for temporary results, ending up with razor bumps and occasional nicks. Plus, the more I learned about it the more I realized that gray or light colored hair couldn’t be treated so I figured I was on a time table.

I actually took the step to email a local medical salon. I had multiple areas I wanted treated but I figured I’d start with a smaller area first and see how it goes. That was, until I heard the price and time requirements. $250 for the first session and consult. Then 4-6 more treatments after that with the possibility of more depending on how my body was responding. Initial consult session being about an hour to an hour and a half. With each session being an additional $200. In other words, I was easily looking at a minimum of $1000 just for one small area. Larger areas cost more. Well I just couldn’t afford that. I also didn’t want to have to worry about what to do with my youngest kids if they’d be virtual learning. So I temporarily gave up the idea.

Then I learned that there are at home pulsed light devices. There are many brands and types out there but the Silk’n Infinity hair removal device really stood out. The device cost less than just two treatment session at a professional salon but has enough pulses to remove hair everywhere I wanted to. It is one of the few devices that are FDA certified. It has a lot of safety features in place.

I did an unboxing video on facebook live if you’d like to check it out:

The Silk’n Infinity is approved for hair removal from the cheekbones down so you can remove hair from:

  • upper lip
  • jaw/face
  • underarms
  • chest
  • stomach
  • bikini line
  • arms
  • legs
  • feet
  • anywhere else you might want to remove hair below the cheekbones

On exception would be no Brazilian style hair removal. They do not recommend using it on sensitive areas like genitals and nipples.

There are a list of “do not use” reasons for the device and what types of hair it will work for. I strongly suggest you check out the website for who can use the device and safety precautions. Check out the Q&A and FAQs section to help answer your questions before buying.

I will also be hosting a zoom party in March around March 13. So if you’d like an invite to the zoom party to ask questions and learn about the device just leave a comment and let me know. OR direct message me on one of my social media channels if you want to be be more discreet about it.

I’ve already done two treatment sessions. It’s super easy to use, it does not hurt at all. The safety features in place really make it easy to ensure you’re doing things right. I plan on doing an update post around the time of my zoom party. I also want to do another post in about 12 weeks as that is the average range for noticable permanent hair removal when sticking with the regimen. My first session took a little longer than the 2nd as I was just learning the device. All in all it only took me about 40 minutes to do ALL the areas I wanted treated.

That being said, I’ll give even more info on my next update and at my zoom party. If you have any questions now, just leave them in the comments and I’ll answer the ones I can.
