I love jewelry. I feel naked without it. I sat looking over the site trying to decide on just one piece to review. I literally spent 45 minutes saying maybe this one, no no this one, ooo I like that one. Maybe I should have asked for consulting. In the end I chose this piece:

Gold Pear and Leaf Drop Necklace

I love the design.  It’s delicate and intricate.  Also sparkly, i love things that sparkle!  I couldn’t wait to try it on when I received it.  I wore it with an every day v-neck t-shirt. The piece held up well. I wore it for several days. I even wore it to work and while I slept. (I’m sure that’s not recommended but like I said, I feel naked without my jewelry) The lobster claw clasp made it easy for me to put on. 

see sparkly!

The piece is light and eye-catching. At only $21 it would be affordable sparkle for your perfect dress.  Jewelrystylist.com offers many more designs so head on over check out the website.  www.jewerlystylist.com

Review Summary:  I would recommend jewelrystylist.com to anyone looking for affordable jewelry pieces of any occasion.  Since the prices are great you could even afford to get say a tiara for your little ones princess costume for halloween (check out the Small Bridal Tiara for $25!) or something to add to your festive holiday attire this year.   (Who doesn’t want to save a little money during the holidays?).

I work in a hospital. There are signs up everywhere about washing hands. There are hand sanitizer foams outside patient rooms. It’s drilled into us as direct patient care workers, wash your hands! This is all for a good reason. Not just hospital workers but everyone. Washing your hands is one of the best and easiest ways to prevent from spreading germs and getting sick.

I have to remind my kids to wash their hands in the bathroom. They sneeze into their hands, either wash or use hand sanitizer. Children, especially now that most schools are back in session, come in contact with lot of other kids. How many kids touch the restroom stall handle? Maybe more importantly, how many kids actually wash their hands if someone isn’t standing right over them? Maybe best not to dwell on that. With the start of school I’m a little more diligent about cleaning and sanitizing the door knobs, the flush handle on the toilet, and the knobs on the faucet. But how do I get my kids to wash their hands and wash them properly? Soap Soundz comes along!

hygiene heroes 3 pack

Soap Soundz has hand soaps and sanitizers that appeal to your children. There are also Soap Soundz for the seasons (Halloween, Christmas, etc). So what makes Soap Soundz so unique from other hand soaps and sanitizers? When you pump the hand soaps it plays a song or recording for 20 seconds. That’s the amount of time that you should wash your hands. Did you know that? Yep it’s true. 20 seconds, warm water, and friction. (I know, it’s drilled into me remember?)

Soap Soundz come in different scents as well. My boys and I were looking over the varieties. The boys were all about trying the Hygiene Heroes soaps. You can listen to the sounds they make online: Click here to listen to check it out

I was interested in trying some of the holiday soaps. They come in great scents like: apple cinnamon, sugar cookie, and winterberry to name a few. They have soaps for Halloween and Valentine’s day too! 

Some seasonal Soap Soundz

We got to try the Soap Soundz hand soaps in Seasons Winterberry and Sugar Cookies, Hygiene Heroes Lord Viral (scent Meteor Melon) and Captain Clean hands (in Rocket Rasberry).  We also received the Hand Sanitizer.  It makes really cool robot/computer like sounds when you press the pump like “Dispensing sanitizer solution” .  It says 4 different phrases.  The scent of these products are great too.

As an added Mom bonus I could hear if my kids were actually washing their hands or not if I was outside of the bathroom.

Check out the website.  There is a fun and informative E-brochure on Soap Soundz site as well.

There’s an old saying “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”  So true.  This is an easy and fun way to help prevent colds and flu.

Review Summary:  Soap Soundz is reasonably priced and offers benefits that other hand soaps and sanitizers just don’t.  It’s a great reminder for all of us just how long we really should be washing our hands.  The customer services is friendly.  Shipping was fast and accurate.  I would say yes definitely get this to use in your house for back to school and flu season.

Ok guys, this one is for you (or ladies who are interested in this for a certain guy in their lives). My husband actually introduced me to this brand. He had ordered a shaving cream from Every Man Jack. He was so impressed with the product, the customer service, the prices, every thing about Every Man Jack. When he ordered the shave cream, not only did he get what he ordered but he also got a body bar to try as well as a handwritten note with his ordering thanking him for his order. How cool is this company?!

I didn’t know about their great prices until my husband told me to check out their website. I was impressed: You can get a nice sized “16.9 oz bottle of body wash” for $6.00 and there are different scents like citrus scrub, cedarwood, signature mint and spiced pepper: Every Man Jack Body Washes 
They also offer body bars and body scrubs at great prices.

That’s not all though, Every Man Jack has tons of products of all you guys.  And they smell….well I’ll just say I REALLY like the scents. My favorite is the cedarwood (from a woman’s perspective)  but they’re all good.  Every Man Jack has body products, hair products, lotions, facial cleansers and scrubs, sun protectants, after shave products, shaving cream, kits and lots more.  Check it out for yourself:

Every Man Jack has several kits which are all great values. For example, The Fresh Grad Signature Mint kit for only $15 that includes: body wash, face wash, shave gel, face lotion, and a toiletry bag. Holy cow that’s a good deal!

As if these deals weren’t enough to make you change grooming products, right now if you spend $25 on their site you get a free 2 in 1 citrus shampoo too.

So I know all I’ve been talking about was Every Man Jack’s nice variety of products and their prices that make affordable for most budgets. Let’s talk about how well Every Man Jack products work.  My husband has officially replaced his regular shaving cream with Every Man Jack shaving cream.  He liked it so much he bought some for his dad (my father-in-law). My father-in-law tells me his skin usually gets irritated with shaving but with the Every Man Jack shaving cream he hasn’t had much irritation.

Did I mention that I really like the scent of the Every Man Jack products as well…yea I did?…Oh ok sorry.

Every Man Jack being the cool company that they are sent me a very generous package.My husband could try more Every Man Jack products so that I may do a more informed review of their line. 

My husband received the Every Man Jack pre-shave Face Wash and pre-shave face scrub.

These tubes are in generous sizes  5 FL oz.  My husband received them in the Signature Mint scent from Every Man Jack.  The mint scent is a crisp scent which seems strong when in use but only subtle once you’re done washing your face. My husband isn’t like me to ramble on about a products. I asked him: “What did you think about the face wash and face scrub?”  His reply “It worked good, it cleaned my face”. I had to ask more questions. “What did you think of the texture?  Did you notice a difference in your face after using this compared to your previous facewashes?”  He then elaborated some and said that it did feel like a deeper clean and he did feel like he noticed less blackheads with the scrub.

The next product was the Every Man Jack Body Wash in Citrus Scrub. Again, a generous size product with 16.9 Fl oz for a nice price.

When my husband used the body wash there was an obvious citrus scent.  Along with the citrus scent was a hint of guy…i don’t know like cologne maybe. It was pleasant. Initially the scent was stronger.  After showering however it was a subtle scent that lingered on his skin.

So I asked my husband, “What did you think of the body wash honey?” his response ” It’s good it cleaned my body ”  Babe, you’re killing me here.  Care to elaborate?  “Did it lather well or not?”   he says “yes”  I asked him, as a guy, “Do you like the scent?”  his response “yea I like it”

He already uses the shaving gel from Every Man Jack.  His favorite product.  As I mentioned above, like it so much he got it for his dad as part of a present.  He also received Every Man Jack Shave Cream.

I asked him what he thought about this product (wincing a little waiting for I like it it’s good) he laughs knowing that’s what I’m expecting.  He says, “It works well.  I put it on my face and let it soak in a minute. It’s a very smooth shave”  Ah, thanks honey!  This cream is fragrance free. 

With my husband the bottom line is, he just wants it to work, he wants to smell like a guy, and he doesn’t want it to cost a fortune.  That’s some of the reasons why he keeps going back to Every Man Jack.  He is also very impressed with their customer service. 

Review Summary:  Every Man Jack should be on every guys list.  The prices are great, the customer service is some of the best that my husband and I have experienced, fast shipping, good quality products, made for guys. 

We got a bunch more stuff.  Some that my husband can’t use, for example, the Every Man Jack Pomade and Fiber Cream.  Why? Well because he shaves his head

So I’d hate to see these great products go to waste.  I’m going to give 1 of my readers a set of Every Man Jack products courtesy of Every Man Jack’s great package they sent me.  1 reader will receive the following products:

The winner will receive a set that includes:
* 1 Every Man Jack 2.65 oz Pomade
