Saga of Wealth Book Review

Saga of Wealth by Cassia Cassitas

This is a long read for a kindle so I will warn you of that (though maybe it is just for me because I have such terrible eyes). Cassia's writing is really easy to follow and makes reading the book easy as well. The book is set during the financial crisis of 2008 and touches on subjects such as the real estate market, unemployment, self employment, etc. You get to follow Ricardo and his wife while they try to make decisions regarding their growing family's financial future.

The book is available on amazon as an eBook for $3.99 or you can invest in the paperback copy (I LOVE physically having a book in my possession) for 10.28.

Directly from their Amazon page (to give you just a bit more information on the book directly from them): 

Saga of Wealth is a historical fiction novel set during the financial crisis of 2008.

The novel tells a story of people who live in the era of finance, fund implementation risk and the quest for money and power. People that, despite real estate bubbles, subprime securities and unemployment, envision and pursue paths of prosperity.

Luxe Beauty Eyebrow Growth Serum Review

I received this eyebrow growth serum from Luxe Beauty in exchange for my review. I feel I cannot give it a complete and total review because it's only been about 3 weeks and it really takes eight weeks to allow it to work well. However, there is some noticeable thickness that wasn't there before.

In order to achieve full effects use this product twice daily (morning and night) on freshly cleaned skin. Also allow it time to dry completely. A positive to this serum is that it has little to no scent so you don't not need to worry about a strong cosmetic smell.

If you are interested in trying this product for yourself it is available on Amazon for $29.99

CLIA Stretchmark cream review

Keep in mind going into this that it is a smoothing cream. The Amazon title does show removal of stretch marks but this is really to smooth them over. The ingredients in this are really nice. Make sure you use this twice a day (morning and at night) and also allow it time to dry before putting on your clothes. Allow a full eight weeks also before you determine if this is the cream for you. Anything before eight weeks is not really giving it enough time to work. This isn't a miracle cream but it can help SOME! I received this product for testing purposes in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

If you would like to try it for yourself they do have it available for a very reasonable price on amazon of $10.95

X-Chef Corkscrew and Wine Stopper Set

I drink a lot of wine (not at once, of course!) so I can destress and unwind after work. So when I was given the opportunity to order and receive this corkscrew and stopper set in exchange for my honest review I was excited. 

This set is well made and does everything it is intended to. It opens my wine bottle and then closes it when I don't finish it the entire bottle (ha!). 

It is available for purchase on Amazon for $8.99 currently. This would make a great stocking stuffer next week and there is still enough time to receive it before Christmas with prime shipping!

Children's Probiotic Review

I love that these probiotics have no sugar, are NON-GMO and are made in the USA. They also have no gluten, lactose, wheat, soy,eggs, shellfish, and tree nuts which make it very allergy friendly. The lid is easy to open with the pop top so I don't have to fight the bottle trying to get a pill out for my daughter. 

Each pearl has 3 billion CFU's and are time released to maximize results. They are VERY tiny pills and only one a day is needed which makes this an amazing price for a 60 day supply. The flavor is awful so definitely use a delicious drink after or maybe a snack (apple sauce perhaps? whatever your child prefers will work!) in order to get rid of the taste. I guess you can't necessarily have a delicious pill AND great results...would definitely prefer it to not taste great but perform well if I had to choose! 

Head on over to Amazon if you want to purchase a bottle yourself for $11.87

Forever Flex Exercise Ball Review

Available in black and purple!

I try to live a semi-healthy lifestyle which means exercising when time permits (single mom to a very active toddler!). I have rods in my back from scoliosis however, so there are a lot of physical things that cause me more pain. So, I'm a bit limited in the exercises I can do. I really liked using these type of exercise balls during physical therapy after my surgery, so I was thrilled to be given the opportunity to receive one discounted in exchange for my honest review of it.

I am happy with it! It comes with the hand air pump to blow it up which is super convenient. The first thing I noticed is that it is very durable and strong. 

Fitness balls have various exercise purposes:  It can be used as part of a pilates program or for yoga (I am trying to get into yoga to help with my back after the surgery). Fitness balls can also improve your core and overall strength as well. 

If you would like to order your own they are available on Amazon for under $25

Mamaway Ring Sling Review

Over the past couple of years I have used different carriers for my daughter (she is now 2.5) and I love trying new ones out. She doesn't like to be worn as much now (she prefers to run free...which I do not prefer for her!). 

I received this ringsling from mamaway in exchange for my honest review and figured that was the perfect opportunity to test out a new (to me) ring sling and then add it to my new mommy gift basket for the next baby shower I attend. 

I saw the reasoning on another post regarding the use of nylon rings versus metal and I think that's a great idea. Being able to transfer sleeping baby without worrying about waking them is a major thing for a new parent (or a seasoned parent with a new baby!). 

The fabric is great and works for just about anyone...it is gender neutral for baby and parents! Ring slings are a great option when baby is smaller because you can keep them close while they sleep or breastfeed.

Pick up your own mamaway ring sling on Amazon for $69.99
