The kit comes with two icing bags, a variety of 24 icing tips, two easy to screw couplers, a clear box to put all your icing tips, free E-book and a generous 1-year warranty from the owner!

 

The clear box was just a perfect place to store the icing tips after use. It has multiple dividers that separate each of the tips and makes it easier to find the icing tip you need. You can also rearrange the dividers inside the box to store larger tips, and you can double up tips to store even more tips that you may already have! The icing tips are made from a strong stainless steel that doesn't get bent or misshapen. From this collection of 24 tips, you won't run out of new icing decoration ideas!



The two icing bags are made from high-quality silicone. It is 12-inch in length and has a secure grip. They are also reusable and easy to clean, and each bag also includes a hook so you can easily hang it up for drying. On the other hand, the two reusable couplers that come with the piping kit makes it easier to screw the tips onto the piping bag, hassle-free.









Upon your order confirmation, the seller will email you to activate your 1-year warranty as well as your free E-book. The E-book was a 39-page Frosting Guide, User manual and tips catalog. A ton of information that will come in handy on your cupcake decorating journey!


This is definitely the perfect and ultimate 30-In-1 Cake Decorating Kit. Ideal for making Cupcakes and Cookies! It's worth the price, indeed.

Review: Watermelon Slicer & Melon Baller / Fruit Carving Knife

Monday, April 17, 2017


Summer is fast approaching and watermelon season is almost here! Ever wonder how to slice your fruit in style? This tool might be a perfect addition to your kitchen.

I personally love watermelons and melons, especially during hot seasons. So when I came upon this product, I was excited to try it. I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest review and feedback.


The box comes with two tools - the watermelon 2-prong slicer and the melon baller that can also be used as a fruit carving knife. The slicer is made from high-quality stainless steel, and it has a non-slip, comfort grip handle. I am now able to serve beautifully sliced watermelons. Cutting and slicing watermelons has never been easy, quickly serve and mess free!




On the other hand, the 2-in-1 tool scoop and fruit carver have a smooth stainless steel handle with plastic accents. The baller part comes handy when making fancy fruit drinks or scooping many types of fruits or even ice cream! The carving part is perfect for artistic people who find it fun to create cool fruit and food designs. It can also be used to slice or diced other soft, easy to mold food.




Both tools are easy and fun to use. They are sharp enough to cut and slice fruits but not too sharp to be dangerous to use. They have cute designs and vibrant colors too! It's an amazing little helper in your kitchen especially this coming summer!

Review: Happy Flight Passport Cover

Sunday, April 16, 2017


Looking for a simple but stylish passport cover to protect your passport and other travel documents? You may want check this out.


I recently received this Happy Flight Passport Cover at a discounted price for my honest review and feedback.

This product is available in up to 7 vibrant colors. I was a little disappointed when the cover arrived because I was not expecting the color to be a dark blue since the one in Amazon was a baby/powder blue color which was far beyond the color I received.



This passport cover has a pretty generic quality and made from Enamel PVC. The cover was larger than my passport with  a dimension of 16.9 x 13.4 x 9.1 inches. It has a slip-in compartment on the left side and two available slots on the right where you can put extra notes or documents you would like to carry.





Although I am not entirely thrilled with this product, it's a good cover that can protect your passport. Due to its waterproof PVC material, your passport and other documents can be protected from getting wet, and it can easily be wiped clean from dirt. The bright color was a plus because it makes it easy to spot on when you need it, with those vibrant colors, you are safe from leaving it behind.

Review: Revlon Ultra HD Gel Lipcolor™


I've always been a lover of Matte Lipsticks, but when I was given a chance to try these Revlon Ultra HD Gel Lipcolor, I fell in love!
Personally, lipstick is the only makeup I can't go without. Having a problematic, acne-prone face, I am usually afraid of trying anything but lipstick. Having said that, I am also picky in choosing what to put on my lips. Recently, I was fortunate enough to be selected by Crowdtap to try these Revlon Ultra HD Gel Lipcolor in exchange for my honest review and feedback.


I received 3 amazing lip colors: Sand (#700), Rhubarb (#745), and Vineyard (#760). Just by looking at their packaging, I know that Rhubarb would be my favorite among them since I always consider bright reds as my color. But all these colors are definitely shades I will use for every occasion.


I like their simple packaging and the fact that the tube's color is more or less matches the color of the product. It makes you easier to grab the color you like from the pile of lipstick you may have. Moreover, I like the slanted tip that makes it easy for a precise application. It has a sweet and fruity scent that people with a sensitive sense of smell won't like, but it doesn't bother me that much. It smells good!

Sand - Rhubarb - Vineyard Swatches.

SAND


I am not a fan of nude shades, but this Sand color from Revlon was an exception. I love the look of it on my lips, unlike the other nude shades I've tried before that made me look like a sick person. I can wear this every day and just by completing some of my day to day errands.

VINEYARD


I also love this berry-like pink color on my lips. It made me look younger and radiant. This color is perfect for a casual date night and simple party night outs with family and friends. This is now officially my second favorite color among the three.

RHUBARB


As I have already mentioned, I consider bright red as my color, and when I asked my husband what's his favorite for me among the three colors I have, he picked this one too. This color makes me feel fierce and more comfortable. Definitely a favorite!

Nude 'Sand,' Sweet 'Vineyard' and Rocking 'Rhubarb' look.


OVERALL VERDICT

What can I say? I am super impressed! Revlon Ultra HD Gel Lipcolor is lightweight, hydrating and pigmented. Being known to have hyaluronic acid, it gives an ultra hydrating formula for the lips. It's comfortable to wear without that sticky feel that I hate with glossy lipsticks. It swipes smoothly on the lips but has the tendency to glide outside your lips, so it's better to use it with a lip liner.  The lipstick is not transfer proof which is understandable with this kind of formulation. It stays on your lips for quite a good while but not too long, but it's always easy to re-apply. Overall, they look and feel good on the lips!

Have you tried any of these? What is your favorite color?

Review: Facial Cleaning Brush by Beauty Artisan

Saturday, April 15, 2017


First-time facial cleaning brush user here! And I was glad I was able to try this cute facial cleaning brush as my first.



I can tell you that  I am a late beauty-concern bloomer and I am not entirely familiar with so many things regarding makeups and beauty routines! But right now, I am slowly learning.

One of my first discovery is this so called Facial Cleaning Brush, and fortunately, I was able to have one at a discounted price for testing and review purposes.

The packaging was simple and nice. However, the manufacturer of the packaging misspelled the word "cleaning" in front of the box.
Cla-ning instead of Cleaning.

I fell in love with the cute color and design of the brush. It was a 5.48 inch in length with an arc design and a matte-textured handle. It perfectly fits my palm and has a comfortable grip. At the bottom of the handle was a string that you can use to hang the brush after using (which I don't find hygienic for some reasons). The bristle of the brush was super soft! According to the description in Amazon.com, it has 26 million pieces of high-quality nano-antibacterial fiber from Japan which sounds amazing!



It massaged my skin pretty well and gentle. I discovered that using a brush in your facial cleansing routine was more effective in penetrating the pores thus removing the dirt thoroughly than just by hand-washing your face. After I had used this, my skin felt smooth and clean. This facial cleaning brush was the first brush I ever used on my face, and so far I loved it, and it's now officially included in my daily facial routine.
