Majestic Pure Vitamin C Serum Tomoson

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links and Images




I received Vitamin C Serum, in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. The product was developed by Majestic Pure. The Vitamin C serum also contains Vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid.

The serum is light weight if used sparingly. If you add too much, the serum starts feeling heavy and extra oily. Since the product contains hyaluronic acid, the serum also helps moisturize your face. The serum also helps even skin tone and reduces the effects of aging. I also noticed the product does not have a strong smell.

I use the serum after I tone my face and before I moisturize. I let the serum dry first, before adding moisturizer.

Millionaire Within Us Author Interview (Sage Publications)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.




On January 22, 2014, I posted the spotlight for The Millionaire Within Us
by Chris Carley. This post will focus on the author interview.

Author Interview

1) Did you ever pay your father back?

Great question. Of course I paid him back, he made me sign a contract. Yet the moment that sticks out for me quite distinctly is when I drove him and my mom to my home in malibu. He was looking around and he asked "Is this all yours?"

He walked the grounds and asked if I was saving my money, he didn't understand that the residual income came in every month.

2) What are your best and worst recommendations for network marketing companies?

I don't focus on companies I focus on the marketer. Every marketer has to have a strategy to become successful. They have to give samples, they have to market and talk to their people, and they have to really be out there and market themselves.


3) What are your goals for the future?
I wrote the book "The Millionaire Within Us" to really start helping network marketers the control back. I have been so successful that I promised God I would give back when I could. Now it's time, in fact it's long over due. I really want to share how I became successful . It's a blessing that I don't ever take for granted.

4) Do you still make financial mistakes? if so, name one and what did you learn from it

In the early days I bought fancy cars, joined Donald Trump private clubs. I don't think they are financial mistakes, but I have appreciated my charity work more. Giving is really far better than receiving. When I was in India I saw such abject poverty, that it hurt my heart. I knew it wasn't right and I realized that this is happening all over the world. I went from a $10.75/HR factory worker to a multimillionaire and the worse part about it is that I wish I had more of my friends and family right here with me.


5) What tips can you give to someone just starting out?
My whole book is one giant tip. Lol. I really believe in the concepts of giving away samples and guerilla marketing. Use the words free, guarantee, and let people use the product. Never sell anything you don't use our don't believe in.

6) What are a few ways to grow money versus losing money?
The best way to grow your money is to work hard. Don't ever do anything you don't believe in.

Fractionated Coconut Oil Review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.




I received Fractionated Coconut 16 Oz Carrier Oil , in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. I wanted to review the product to make a few DIY home beauty and facial products. The oil is a base for homemade DIY versus cooking coconut oil. For example, I mixed the coconut oil with a dash of peppermint and tea tree oil, with cocoa butter, for an impromptu vaporub when I was sick a few weeks ago. I am still trying to experiment with coconut oil and the other essential oils, I have. I need to buy some bottles and jars, instead of ziplock bags :-)

I also found some books on Amazon about Coconut Oil today. I provided a list of the first few books, but there are plenty more. Coconut Oil can be used in cleansers, deodorant, and body butter. You can use it to add shine to your hair and apparently weight loss.

Learn to Dance Salsa DVDS (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate links and Images,




I received Salsa Dancing Lessons, Beginners Salsa 3 Pack DVD SET: Salsa Dance Lessons (3 DVDs), in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. The set was created by the makers of Dance Crazy, Salsa Crazy, and Bachata Crazy.

The collection comes with 3 DVDS, teaching beginning Salsa techniques. I also liked the history and outtakes on the first DVD. I also like how the male instructor discusses what he will teach before the lessons begin. The first thing, he teaches is rhythm and timing. He doesn't give his name though. He does encourage people to count out loud on the steps they step on. Salsa Dancing, according to him, has 8 steps. If you pause, then you don't count. This is helpful to me because I have no rhythm.

You can purchase Salsa dancing lessons and other Dance Crazy dvds on Amazon. The DVDS are prime-eligible.



Spare Fuel Review (Tomoson)





I received Spare Fuel, in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. Spare Fuel is a temporary alternative to gas, when you are low or have ran out of gas. I wanted to review the product because my mother is always complaining about being on E or being close to E, less than 25 miles from where she needs to go.

Everytime, we go somewhere, a trip to the gas station is eventual, because she gets close to the final drop.

Spare Fuel is also safe to store in your car, truck, or vehicle. Traditional gasoline is scary to carry in a vehicle. The gas can spill over or can combust, if left in extreme heat. Safe Fuel is easy to carry, easy to store, and easy to use. It is also non-combustible.

According to the website, Spare Fuel can give your vehicle, an additional 5-15 miles for each half-gallon used. You also can use the product in any gas powered engine, such as tractors, generators, and chain saws. The website also says you can add Spare Fuel to gasoline to extend the supply.

You can purchase Safe Fuel, using the link above. You can purchase the product in half-gallons: 1, 2, 6, 12, or 18. Prices vary by package chosen.

Mesh Strainer Review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links and Images





I received the Strainer 8" Metal, Fine Mesh, Everyday Kitchen Jobs A Breeze: Tea, gravy, Sauce, Fits Over Pots, Pans & Bowls, in exchange for honest review from Tomoson.

I wanted to review it because the house had no strainer, which is not good when you need to drain pasta or other foods, with too much liquids.

The product worked great for small food items, such as tuna or canned veggies, for example. When I cooked a medium pot of pasta, I struggled with the strainer. The handle was hard to flip and turn. It wasn't sturdy, so I had to strain the pasta in small batches to finish the meal.

The product is available on Amazon. You can purchase it, using the link above. The strainer is prime-eligible.

I read Almost Perfect by Diane Daniels Manning, in exchange for honest review from iRead Book Tours.

About the Book: 

Two unlikely friends, an old woman and a boy with special needs, take an aging champion to Westminster Dog Show, and heal their troubled families.

Seventy year-old Bess Rutledge has fantasized about winning the Westminster Dog Show all her life, but now she has decided she is too old to follow her dream. She meets Benny, an angry fourteen year-old with mild autism and ADHD, who has a dream of his own: to impress his self-absorbed mother. He becomes convinced that winning Westminster with McCreery, Bess’ aging champion standard poodle, will finally make his mother proud of him. Getting Bess to go along with his plan, however, is not going to be so easy.

About the Author: 

Diane Daniels Manning is the co-founder and director of The New School in the Heights, a therapeutic school in Houston, Texas which helps children dealing with social-emotional challenges find success in school and life. She has a Ph.D. in Education and a post-doctoral M.P.H from Harvard and is a practicing child psychoanalyst certified by the American Psychoanalytic Association. Formerly, she was the Director of the Reading and Learning Disabilities Clinic at Tufts University, Lecturer and Research Associate in the Department of Behavioral Sciences at Harvard, and Chair of the Department of Education at Tulane University. She learned the inner workings of dog show kennels by writing an authorized oral history of a lifetime President of the Poodle of Club of America. Her writing awards include the Faulkner-Wisdom Novella Prize and the Women in Film and Television Short Script Competition.

When not at The New School, Diane and her writing partners, a Standard Poodle named Misty and a rescue cat named Elvira, convene at the keyboard to share great thoughts and plan the dinner menu.

My Review

I wanted to read the book because I am the mother of two autistic boys. The book is about Benny, who wants a dog, but his father and step mother doesn't want him to have one. His parents told him he has to bring up his grades, but Benny struggles with making straight As. One day, Benny's mother forgets to pick him up from school and he walks home. On the way home, he runs into an abandoned dog kennel, near his home, because he heard a puppy whimpering. 

The book was a good read. I liked Manning's writing style. Even though, I am not a dog person, I wanted Benny to have a dog in the beginning of the book

Dr. Ezreaonne Jackson’s message is one that is precise in the strategy of developing and defining vision and purpose.

About The Book

We must come to a place in our lives that our self-worth and value are esteemed and in unity with the
Father’s worth for us. You too can resurrect from the ashes of your past, the mockery that crouches on the stoop of your incarcerated life, and resume a position to charge with aim and tenacity to get your life back!

The relevance of this book addresses the common thread of the wrong turns in life which man and women make when searching for their true identity and purpose for life. Our postmodern philosophy masks an old social outcast profession by bringing glamour to degradation and self-mutilation renaming it reality shows. 

Dr. Ezreaonne Jackson brings to the forefront how a life can spiral downward when the need to belong is mishandled and abused. A compelling and powerful memoir that has the potential to bring healing, hope, comfort and faith to the reader.

Microwave Splatter Guard Review (Tomoson)

This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links and Images.



A photo posted by Stacie D Wyatt (@sdwyatt1980) on


I received the Microwave Oven Baking Cooking Splatter Guard, in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. I wanted to review the product because some things do not need to be spilled in the microwave. Maybe it's the bowl of chili, which starts popping and hits the sides or the bowl of soup, which overspills.

My sister loves cooking all sorts of interesting things in the microwave and the spills hit the sides and tops of the microwave. One of the most tedious tasks is cleaning the microwave. Someone has to clean the glass turn table. Then, you need soap and water to clean the sides. You also have to clean the doohickey beneath the glass, which helps the glass turn. Not to mention, the outside and underneath the microwave.

The Microwave oven baking cooking splatter guard allows you to cover your bowls, plates, and cups to minimize spills. Don't forget you have to wash the guard after every use. You don't want your cheeses and sauces sticking to the lid for days and weeks at a time.

The guard also does not have sides, so some liquids can still escape from the sides of your plates. Use of bowls is preferred.

You can purchase the splatter guard, using the link above. The splatter guard is prime-eligible.


My little life of Jesus Book Review (Kregel Blog Tours)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links and Images.




I read My Little Life of Jesus (My Little Bible), in exchange for honest review from Kregel Blog Tours. The book was written by Karen Williamson and illustrated by Amanda Enright.

My little life of Jesus presents 6 stories, starting with the first Christmas or the birth of Jesus.  The book also briefly discusses when Jesus was 12 and went to the temple. OR maybe your kids want to learn about John the Baptist baptizing Jesus.

Your kids will learn about the disciples, some parables, and some miracles. Finally, your kids will learn about the death and resurrection of Jesus.


The book also had great, colorful, illustrations. I also liked the briefness of each story. Some kids, like mine, have short attention spans. For Kalen, I summarize each page and he points to the pictures.


The book is available in padded hardcover only. The book is prime-eligible.
