Julius Jr Invento Cycle


Julius Jr, Invento cycle is a pull back and watch it zoom by type of toy. Although he is not pictured in this photo as my son has "misplaced" the cute little monkey figurine. Also known as, Julius Jr. 

At first I did not think it would go so fast, but it keeps up with most of my sons other pull back cars. Julius doesn't stay in the motorcycle very well though,. It would have been nice if there was a little connector inside that would actually hold him. I also enjoy the rather simple colors of it. My son loves blue and is constantly showing me and pointing to the toy saying, "blue".

I also really like that there aren't any small pieces to this toy. Therefor kids won't be able to choke on any pieces. It is very simple and basic but fun for a 2 year old. Although my son loves cars of any type so he could play with it all day. 



And of course dad loves to play with the toy as well. Sometimes I find him playing with it rather than our son! It's what guys do!




I received this product from Chatterbox and this review is my own personal opinion.

Children 'n Us Stroller Organizer


Children 'n Us Stroller Organizer is a bag that you can rely on regardless of where you are heading. The best aspect of the bag is that it can strap onto the stroller and even the front of a bicycle. It has storage compartments on the inside, as well as some on the outside of the bag. It makes your traveling rather easy, a lot easier to carry this bag rather then a huge diaper bag.

It's one of the larger stroller organizers on the market. It has a pocket that you can put your phone (or anything you would like of course), a velcro pocket to hold other items such as pacifiers, there are two insulated bottle spots (I used it for my sons sippy cup and the other for my drink), a zipper pocket to store more important items such as your keys and then of course, the big inside to carry diapers, wipes and even a change of clothes!





It has an adjustable strap that will attach onto pretty much anything. It fit on both the umbrella stroller and the bigger travel sized stroller that we own. It can be used for more than just a stroller/diaper bag. You can put your kids favorite toys in there along with a drink and put it in the car for a car organizer just for your kids items.

I used it like a diaper bag/hand bag. I put my sons diapers, a sippy cup, a change of clothes and wipes into it. Along with a drink for myself. I could have put a lot more into it but I only brought the items I knew I really needed.


I love that it is a nice black bag. I love all the pockets and how convenient the bag is. It is a perfect fit for our umbrella stroller when we go out for walks. Upon adding all the items into the bag, I found that it was actually much lighter then carrying his diaper bag. The diaper bag is so big that I have a ton of extra space and it just goes to waste. I like having something simple and compact. I especially love that my husband can find everything when I ask him to grab our sons diapers or a toy, etc. Very organized!

Purex Crystals Aromatherapy + Giveaway


Purex Crystals Aromatherapy is an in wash scent booster. Floral and citrus scents were blended with aromatherapy essential oils to infuse your clothing with very refreshing aromas. These Purex Crystals are a new product which comes in the scents:
  • Well Being- A happy fragrance of fresh blossoms
  • Energy- A stimulating scent of citrus
  • Serenity- A gentle scent of water lilies




You simply add the Purex Crystals Aromatherapy into your washers tub at the start of each wash to supplement your laundry detergent. It works in top, front loading and HE washers. 


How much you use is totally up to you. Add a lot or add a little bit. I personally only add about maybe a quarter size into my washer and the clothes came out smelling citrus-y. In a good way, it showed me that even a little bit goes a long way. I do not add the Purex Crystals Aromatherapy into my washer each load I do, personally I only add it to my husband and I's clothing. I feel that the scent might be a little much to have on baby clothes and the fact that we do not know if the baby will be allergic to it.

As shown in the first picture of this blog, I received the Energy Aromatherapy scent and absolutely love it. It feels nice to put a load into the wash, and after it is done, being able to smell the refreshing scent of citrus on your clothes. I don't know about you guys, but the smell of all those clean clothes, it is amazing! I may just have to try all the scents and keep them stock piled!

now for the exciting news, any of you guys want to try out one of these Purex Crystals Aromatherapy? Now you have a chance. The amazing people at The Purex Insiders, have given me a few coupons to giveaway! You are able to get one of those three scents that were mentioned. It will be in a form of a coupon and will be sent directly from me! 3 Winners! It will last a week and the coupon expires on the 30th of November. Just enter through the raffleccopter! GOOD LUCK!




 The Purex Brand provided me with a sample of Purex Crystals Aromatherapy in exchange for a product review. However, all the opinions expressed here are my own.

Dead Sea Salt Soap - 100% Natural Face and Body Soap for Dry Skin


First let me say that I am not a huge bar soap person because it always leaves my skin feeling very dry and itchy. This product on the other hand, was very different. I am not going to say that it has completely changed my mind on my view on bar soap, but Adovia 100 percent natural bar soap is definitely a good bar soap in my opinion. 

This moisturizing mineral soap is infused with 100 percent Dead Sea Salt from the Dead Sea. The Sea Salt contains over 21 minerals that are key to healthy skin and beauty! This particular soap is great for dry and normal skin. It provides moisture and hydrates the body. Not to mention that it can be used for a daily moisturizing facial cleanser. 

After viewing the product description, I noticed that it hydrated the body. Of course that was pretty obvious to me once I was done using it. I naturally have pretty dry skin, so getting out of the shower after using bar soap and not itching was a plus for me. I do want to say that it worked great on my stretch marks. I am currently pregnant, and having itchy skin from that does not help. I loved the feeling of hydration from using this on my sides and stomach (which is where the stretch marks happen to be). I must say that it has a strong smell, but it is not overwhelming. Meaning you can still smell the soap after rinsing, drying, getting dressed and leaving the bathroom. It has a very natural and refreshing scent. Very relaxing.

The only thing that I found that I did not like about the soap was, although it does not leave residue on your skin after rinsing, but it does leave some white residue on the bottom of the tub after the water has completely drained. It was all over our bath tub mat. It is not a huge deal but we do have to rinse it off every time the soap was used. (I do have to say that the soap is now gone. It was used every shower time!)

All in all, I really liked the soap. As I mentioned earlier, it does not completely change my thoughts on other bar soaps, but it has opened my eyes to Dead Sea Salt Soaps!

Pet Urine Stain Finder



Product information:
This urine pet finder is a blacklight flashlight and is perfect for all pet owners. Can you smell urine but just can't seem to find where it is coming from? This little handy flashlight will show you where the stain is coming from. the blacklight will show you the stain that you cannot see with your eyes under normal lighting.

This product works by reacting with certain chemicals in the urine that fluoresce under ultra violet light. The stains will light up under the blacklight.

My experience:
I love the fact that it is a small flashlight and does not take up a lot of space. It works best if you wait until it is pretty late at night. I did it around 9 pm when it was darker. I turned the lights off and I knew there was a spot that one of the dogs had an accident at. I could not see the stain under the blacklight. Which does not mean the product does not work because I could have cleaned the stain up pretty good. I then knew that the couch might be a place to look. To my surprise, it was a mess. I was so scared to even sit on the couch after seeing what mess the animals had left on the couch. The light literally lit up my couch like a Christmas tree!

I also tried next to the cat box. I was not surprised at how much of a mess it was over there. the whole corner was covered with stains from urine. I never new how many stains there could be from your animals until I looked under the blacklight.  I honestly am scared to continue to use it, as I don't want to see anymore horrible messes!

My final thought:
I would recommend this product to pet owners. It is light weight and only takes a couple batteries. We have 3 dogs and 5 cats, so I am sure it will work if you have a few more pets then most :)

Want to buy the product for yourself? Check it out on Amazon.

Swaggable!





Hey everyone!

So today I thought of doing something a little different! I thought I would write about Swaggable! For those of you that do not know what it is, stay tuned because I will be explaining it and giving you my honest review about it!

First let me begin by saying that Swaggable is a company that allows individuals to connect with them and are offered free samples of newer products that you, the user are interested in trying. Doesn’t sound like a bad idea? The only thing they want is an honest review! You are even offered coupons throughout your free membership!

Here are a few simple steps so you can better understand what Swaggable is all about.
First you tell them what YOU want! They give you a category and you tell them whether you are interested in that or not! Then they send you products based on what you actually like.

Second is once you signed up, they start looking for samples for you right away! You will always get an email and/or notification from them letting you know that there is a product waiting for you to accept! The only thing is it’s on a first come first serve basis so try to act quickly and accept the invitation. Then all you have to do is wait 1-2 weeks after the ship date to receive your product.

Third, after you receive your product, try it and review it! Swaggable makes it easy for you to write your review. It does not need to be written on your blog, it is just a simple, honest review on their site under the product you received. They also allow you to share the review on Facebook and Twitter! They do notice the users who write good reviews and those individuals are given a priority for new products. So give it the best you got.

Then, after that, you wait for another notification to pop up in your profile and do the same process!

Now onto my experience!

I have been with Swaggable for a little over a year now. I have only received 3 products to try and review. Let me say that this is not their fault. I had forgotten to log into my Swaggable account for a few months and noticed that I had missed 4…yes I said it, 4 invitations. So from my own experience, keep a look out on your profile because they come and go very fast!

The site itself is a bit confusing at first. They recently changed the look and feel of it. Once you get a hang of it, it is pretty simple. You can follow your friends, make new friends and read other people’s reviews.
If you ever have a question, they have a section for faq’s. Also they allow you to email them and they respond fairly quick. Let me remind you, they are a big company so do not expect your answer to be answered in an hour. It took them a day to get back to me and I was very pleased with the answer. They do not send you in circles. They get back to you with a full answer.

The products I tried were a protein bar, a face mask and all natural hemp hearts. They have a wide variety of products to test and review. It is a great way to get you introduced to new things and to get your honest opinion about the products to those companies looking for your opinion.

This is my honest review of the company.

ImmortalEnergy



If you are like me, and constantly searching for a new energy product that will help, look no further. Immortal Energy will not give you the jitters, no caffeine and no sugar rush that is often associated with energy drinks and/or pills. Immortal Energy assists with muscular strength and endurance, increase in concentration and memory, has anti-inflammatory properties, regulates metabolism, and enhances the immune system and wards of infections by assisting the skin to eliminate toxins. The best time to take these pills is right when you start feeling fatigued or mentally drained because these are designed to give you that extra boost to get through the rest of the day.

For those of you that love to look at what is in these products, here is a list of ingredients in these pills:

DEER ANTLER (LU RONG)
Deer antler is widely used in Asia, and now throughout the world, to strengthen adrenal, reproductive and brain functions. It is mainly used as a rejuvenating agent. Short term use is believed to quickly build strength and power, while consistent long-term use is believed to re-build deep life force, preserve youthfulness and to enhance longevity.

ASTRAGALUS (HUANG QI)
For centuries people have used astragalus root to enhance strength and regulate metabolism. Chinese medicine uses astragalus root to enhance the body’s energy, known as “qi”.  Astragalus root is also been shown to protect the adrenal cortex, the gland that produces hormones related to stress. It may also help allergy sufferers by strengthening the immune system’s response to allergens in the environment.

GINSENG (REN SHEN)
Ginseng is used for improving thinking, concentration, memory, work efficiency, physical stamina, and athletic endurance which have a significant impact on our energy levels.

SCHIZANDRA (WU WEI ZI)
Schizandra is known as the five-flavor fruit; it has each of the five flavors (sweet, spicy, sour, salty, and acidic).  It’s one of the most famous herbs used in Chinese medicine. This herb is considered to be one of the premium mind tonics of herbalism. It is used to sharpen concentration, improve memory, and increase alertness. Yet, unlike caffeine-like stimulants, schizandra does not produce nervousness when increasing energy. In fact, some people consider schizandra mildly “calming” while producing wakefulness and improved focus.

I was given a 3 day sample to try, which included 4 pills to take every day for 3 days.

My personal experience:
I took these when I started to feel fatigued, which is usually around 3pm. I felt a slight boost in energy, no bloated feeling, no crash, although I could feel when it was wearing off because I felt like I was going back to my "normal" feeling. I noticed that I felt hungry faster, as if the pills were helping my metabolism regulate. I could concentrate longer and I felt like my mind was much clearer. 

The pill is a natural herb, so if you prefer not to take a pill, you can open them up and add it to water and/or tea. I was able to easily swallow them. There was no taste, nor was there any weird after taste. They did not have a smell to them, which is always a plus for me.

To be honest, I would recommend these pills. I love the no crash feeling and no jittery feeling. The best part, made with all natural herbs! Who wouldn't want that?

Cottonelle Clean Crew

click to expand


As stated on their website, Don't just wipe, wash with Cottonelle Fresh Care Flushable Cleansing Cloths, and experience a more confident clean." 

These wipes are flushable and since they break up after flushing, they are sewer and septic safe! They are alcohol free and are great for everyone!

First let me mention that I received this product free from a community website called Crowdtap. You can do quick hits that will earn you points to be entered into monthly drawings. Prizes include gift cards! You can also have the chance to get into sample and shares and parties! I was able to get into the Cottonelle Clean Crew sample and share.

At first glance, it does not look like anything you would use to, well, wipe your bum with. It comes in a very sleek looking container, which blended very well in the bathroom. They pretty much look and feel like a baby wipe! I was a bit nervous to try it out because of if being a wet napkin, and wasn't to sure if it would be safe! But hey, we use them on babies bottoms don't we?

I used one and to be completely honest, one just doesn't feel right. One cloth is just to thin. I feel like my fingers are going to rip through it. To be honest, who uses only one sheet of toilet paper? I know I don't. 

I would buy these, since you can refill the container rather then going and getting rolls of toilet paper all the time. With my experience, I would use at least two wipes, just to make sure you get that clean feeling.

All in all, I recommend it!

Garnier Fructis triple nutrition oil



The Triple Nutrition Oil is a multi-use dry oil that can be used on your hair, face and body. It delivers rapid acttion nourishment to treat dry hair and skin without the oiliness! It contains three powerful oils. They include, avocado, olive and almond.

Being part of Bzzagent, you get to try products for free and then give your honest opinions. I was able to receive the Triple Nutrition Oil from Garnier Fructis.

They range from about 3-4 dollars at Walmart.

So I do not have EXTREMELY dry hair but the end of my hair look awful. Split ends galore!
I first applied the oil directly to my hair, if you put to much of it, your hair will look greasy. I put a little bit on my hair by my scalp and my husband said my hair looked so shiny and smelled great. He asked me what shampoo I was using. I clearly told him that it was just the oil! So I could tell that he really liked it!

Couple days later, I added the oil to my hands and then ran my fingers through my hair, just the bottom half though. To my surprise, I saw that my split ends looked a lot better! I found that putting a little of the oil on your hands first will make your hair look a lot less greasy.

But wait, there is more! The oil can also be applied to your body! I did not put any of it on my face because my face is already a combination of oil and dry. But I did put it on my arms and it looked really healthy and soft. But it did not last very long.

Here is what the bottle looks like!




















A little bit goes a long way! I swear I use this almost every other day and its not even half way empty! I would not really recommend using it every day. But you do want to apply it once your hair is slightly dry after getting out of the shower.

Here is what my hair looked like after using some of the oil:




















Doesn't it look so healthy! I love it!

So all in all, I loved it in my hair, a no go on the face and as far as my arms, well the oil did not last very long so I would prefer using lotion for dry skin!

Skinnygirl Daily On-The-Go Bars


I received the Coconut with Peanut Butter On the Go Bar free from Influenster

The Skinnygirl on the go bars have only 180 calories and contains more protein and fiber and less sugar and carbs! they are all natural, kosher and gluten free. Except the Dark chocolate multi-grain pretzel. this is definitely a guilt free treat, or snack.

First impression: Oh great, another bar that will taste like cardboard. Oh lovely Coconut and Peanut Butter both in which I do not have a taste for. How could this be a snack, it sure doesn't look very filling.

My expectations: Something that has flavor, gooey and soft, not hard and crunchy, something to munch on for a quick snack BUT something that will hold me over until I make an actual meal. Something appealing to the eye because I have a hard time eating anything that just does not look good! And last but not least, something that I would actual consider buying in the future.

So, did the bar live up to my expectations?
1. This little bar is very gooey! So soft and tastes nothing like cardboard or protein bars.
2. The coconut and peanut butter blended so well that I had no problem taking bite after bite!
3. This little bar was something to munch on for a quick snack and held me over for 2-3 hours!
4. You could see the peanut butter drizzled over the bar, little pieces of coconut. Yum!
5. Would I buy it? OH YES I WILL! I could have a box in the cupboards every week!

It packs a punch! I love how this bar is nothing like a protein bar. It has so much flavor, and the gooey part is the best! This is the first bar that could mix 2 of the flavors that I do not particularly like and make it into something very appetizing!

Olay Fresh Effects Va Va Vivid




The Va Va Vivid system is used to liberate your skin from dirt, oil and makeup for an unstoppable freshness. It's designed power brush was made to get around your face's contours. Meaning the T-zone, hairline and the nose. It gives you a better clean compared to the basic cleaning

My personal experience:
At first when I opened the box, I was a little disappointed to see how small the brush was. When you think of a brush, you think of something with a larger brush head. Along with thicker brushes, in which this one has rubber like bristles. Also, the vibrations I did not think was something that was important. I felt like there would not be enough moisturizer.

After trying the product, I had a different thought about it!

As you can see, you only need a dab!

This is just one side of my face (only the dab shown above)

The rubber bristles felt a lot better on my skin then I expected. It was not hard so it did not hurt. I could feel the rubber bristles really getting into all the hard to reach places. The smell was not overpowering, how ever I did not really like the scent to it. It kind of had a weird alcohol mixed with lotion scent.

The brush was tiny, but it was easy to hold! The rubber made it less likely to slip out from your hands. The vibrations made it feel like it was massaging my skin rather than cleaning it.

It is battery operated so you can use it over and over again. You can also buy the moisturizer from the store. I did use another facial moisturizers and it did not change anything. So, feel free to use any type of moisturizer with the brush!

Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response


Have you ever walked out of the house, rushing to work, stressed out about that presentation you have about your company and then looked down to see those horrible sweat marks under your armpits? Well, you should toss out your old deodorant! Why? well I have a secret, the Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant is better!


The Secret Clinical Strength Stress is doctor endorsed for women under stress. It has 4 times the protection against stress swear. It has prescription strength and wetness protection. Below is a picture of the product I received.


The smell is amazing. You wish you could be on a beach? Well this citrus scent hits as close to a beach as you can get. It does not at all smell like oranges, which is okay with me! I would rather feel like I am on a beach rather then being surrounded by a bag of oranges.


Another plus, it goes on so smoothly! Do you guys ever get those weird deodorant balls under your armpits? Aren't they annoying? Well this Secret Stress Sweat provides you with a smooth armpit through out the day! No more getting white streaks on your clothes. Walk around with confidence once again!

One last thing, the little turning nob on the bottom is easy to grab. I hate the ones that are the size of the whole bottom because I feel like it takes longer to twist to get the deodorant up! This one is simple, only need to use two fingers and a single twist will give you what you need!

My personal experience? 
My biggest stresser is keeping the house clean while having a son who loves his toys! I am always rushing around trying to get everything put away. Stressed about knowing how it will look at the end of the day, let alone the end of the week!

Well, I finally used the Stress Protection in the morning. I was rushing around, stressed all day about the house, bills, my husbands work, everything you could imagine! In the afternoon, I usually notice how sweaty my armpits get. I looked down and to my surprise, there was no sweat to see! I was amazed at how this actually worked for me! I couldn't smell anything, which is good! I was satisfied with the deodorant and now I apply it every day!

So, feel free to walk in confidence!

Schick Hydro Silk Razor



Do you want silky smooth legs?! Then continue reading this review of the Schick Hydro Silk Razor! Each of the cartridges are filled with moisturizer serum that is activated when placed under water. It also contains Shea butter and is suppose to hydrate your legs longer than any other razor! The razor contains 5 blades which moves independently to help keep your skin soft! This is to help protect the skin from irritation because with 5 blades, it allows you to have fewer strokes. The "neck" part moves with your leg. Meaning it gets to those hard to reach areas like your knee. The last part, have you ever placed your razor under the water and then it slips through your hands? Well, the Schick razor has a rubber grip that allows you to keep hold of it better! Oh but wait, the starter kit also came with a suction to place it on your bathroom walls to store the razor!


I have decided to compare the Schick Hydro Silk Razor to the Original Venus Razor in which I have used many times.
 Venus Original Women's Razor

The Venus Razor as 3 blades and it also has a rubber grip to keep it from slipping out of your hands. It has a blue line that will disappear when the serum has dissipated. It has a pivoting head for close shave around and on the knee. It too has a shower holder but it is much bulkier than the Schick Hydro Silk suction holder.

I have used this razor for years. The blue strip disappears quite fast, leaving bumps on my legs constantly. The Venus has 3 blades, whereas the Schick has 5 blades. The Venus gets a close shave, but it does not get close enough like the Schick. My skin feels silky soft after using both razors, but the Shea butter on the Schick makes my legs feel softer for a longer period of time. Both have a rubber grip, but the Schick has a thicker rubber grip that allows you to grip it more comfortably. They both have pivoting heads, but the Schick pivots father back to really get that close shave. As far as the shower holder, the one that came with the Venus was much bulkier and kept falling from my shower wall. I kept bumping it because it wasn't compact like the Schick razor. 

Now the only thing that I noticed is that shaving without shaving cream, both razors left my skin with bumps, or razor burn. BUT, the Venus left bumps on my legs even with shaving cream, whereas with the Schick, my legs were very soft.

Here you can see how smooth looking my leg is. This is using shaving cream with the Schick Hydro Silk Razor.
Here, you can see slight bumps and irritation from using just the razor. (But, it still has slight smoothness to it, I just do not like how it left bumps)


So, I would make the change to the Schick Hydro Silk Razor, your legs will thank you!

Glade Oil Diffuser and Fragrance Smackdown!


Is your house inviting? Mine wasn't at first! My husband worked at a rubber and plastic company and his clothes always smell like really strong paint! Below is a picture of what he has to wear. Can you imagine the smell that comes from these?

So much dirt!

So much paint!

The glade expressions fragrance mist releases a long lasting mist of fragrance. The gentle mist will create layers of freshness throughout your home.



My personal experience:
One spray will make the room smell refreshing and even the colors of the bottle will make it look good. Specially sitting next to some candles! A single spray is not overpowering and the bottle has a unique shape. Although, sometimes the spray part sticks a little so it can be hard to push it in. If you do more than one spray for each room, it can become very overpowering.

Now let us talk about the oil diffuser. The oil diffuser releases long lasting fragrances. Not only does it smell wonderful, the design of the diffuser will fit into any ones decor! Each of the starter kits include one bamboo holder, one diffuser card and one oil bottle.


My personal experience with the oil diffuser:
The design is a great accent to any room, even the bathroom! This time, the smell is not overpowering and won't become overpowering later on. It works fast and you can smell it as soon as you walk into the room. You can also keep the holder and just buy the refills. Can you say money saver? Also it is very easy to set up. Although it is easy to put together, the refill card seems a bit flimsy and sometimes it is difficult to place the refill card into the scent holder because of how flimsy it is. It is only one type of design, but then again with only one look, it can look good anywhere in the home.

All in all, I am in love with both of these Glade Products. It makes my house more inviting and I do not have to worry about my husbands work clothes ruining the refreshing smell of our home! I would recommend these products! Defiantly check them out!

Welcome healthy Skin - Neutrogena Hand Cream

Are your hands dry or chapped? Mine often feel pretty dry and uncomfortable. Neutrogena offers a lotion in Original and Fragrance-free that is meant for dry hands. The Neutrogena hand cream has clinically proved that the highly concentrated formula does in fact heal dry and chapped hands. It improves the look and even the feel of your skin. In just one application, you will feel the difference. It is long lasting, glycerin rich and concentrated. 

My personal experience:
On the bottle, it clearly states that just a dab of lotion will heal dry skin. I put that to the test. Below is a picture of how much I applied to my hands. 

That little dab went a long way. I applied it right after I got out of the shower in the morning and my hands still felt hydrated through out the day. I applied it to my cuticles which are always dried out. The redness around it slowly fainted away. The texture feels more like gel rather than lotion, yet it does not feel greasy! It being fragrance free is also a plus to those who may have sensitive noses!

I know that it says hand lotion, but I applied it to the heels of my feet and it felt great. My feet get a bit more dry than my hands do and it is nice to have a lotion that works best for both!

It's like having a little piece of heaven!

Broadway Nails imPRESS Press-on Manicure


Have you ever wanted to get your nails done, but worried about the cost? Well look no further. The Broadway Nails imPress Press-on Manicure is perfect for you. They offer a wide variety of designs. They offer an easy on, easy PEEL off, no glue, no drying time and no damage to your nails!

Recently I received The Hola! design from Influenster, that were in the College VoxBox and have loved it. Check out the amazing design below:


I wore mine for about 3 days, but chose to remove them. Only because I personally am not use to wearing any type of fake press on nails.

My personal experience:
The press on nails are pretty sturdy and the design does not peel off. Mine stayed on for the entire 3 days until I decided to take them off. You can wear these whenever you want, even on special occasions! They are not too long to the point where it is difficult to do anything. They are easy to apply and remove, and when you do decide to remove them, it won't leave any glue residue on your actual nail.

On the other hand, it is difficult to find the sizes that fit your nails and although they are pretty sturdy, they do often bend at the tips.

Tips and recommendations:
Apply the nails to all your fingers before doing your thumbs! It is kind of hard to apply all your nails when you have your thumb nail on because you need it to pull the plastic off of it! Some of the nails did have some sharp spots on the tips of them, but they are easily fixed if you take a nail filer to them. It did not scratch off the design or peel it in any way. When you do decide to remove them, use a little nail polish remover or some sort of alcohol. They come off much quicker. I tried just peeling them off without using anything and it actually kind of hurt. It was tugging at my actual nail. But once I tried using nail polish remover, it loosened the glue up enough to pretty much slide off for me.

All in all, they are a very nice product to have.
Hope you enjoy!
