Smart Weigh Digital Pro Pocket Scale Review


Have you been looking for the perfect on-the-go pocket scale?
One that is lightweight, accurate, and reliable? Look no further – the Smart Weigh Digital Pocket Scale with its sleek and portable design is exactly what you have been looking for!
Advanced!
Tired of inaccurate weight readings? Ready for an upgrade? The Smart Weigh scale features the highest grade precision with the latest technology.
Weigh Master!
This scale will help you accomplish a wide variety of weighing needs. It will do so accurately and to perfection!
Style!
Features a unique and simple design with its stainless steel 3.94” x 3.7” platform. It is easy to operate by using the four sleek chrome buttons.

  • Features - the top500 is strong, accurate, fast, and user-friendly; will work great for any of your mailing, jewelry, reloading, and cooking needs
    Functions - this scale can double up as a postal scale; the pcs function gives you an accurate count and the hold function will lock weight readings
    Design - features a clear LCD screen lit by a bright blue backlight; will display readings in g, OZ, OZT, dwt, GN, and CT
    Precision - manufactured with high precision sensors to provide the most accurate weight readings; weighs up to 500 grams in 0.01 Increments
    Includes - 2 AAA batteries with a two minute auto shut off feature; the tare function will provide a net weight

I will ashamedly admit that I am horrible with metrics; I hate it. So if there is something needed in a recipe that was in grams, I would always get my computer and convert it in Google. This scale gave me so much more freedom to bake/cook freely without interruptions. What's more, I could have my mise en place done in totality.

Another great feature about this scale is the tare feature; In preparing the mise en place, I could put the measuring cup or spoon on the scale and then zero it again so it doesn't take the measurement of the utensil when I add the ingredient. That way you know you are getting a correct reading.

Another area I normally have issues with that this has remedied mostly, is online postage and pickup. I would be guessing how much the package weighed or using a bathroom scale that would constantly change. Often, I would have to wait until it was convenient to try and make it to the post office before I would get anything sent off, hence why not much of anything got sent. This scale has saved me so much worry and time by allowing me to do smaller packages with correct weight so I can make a drop if I'll be on the road or have the mail person pick up at home.

I cannot say enough good things about this scale; it's efficiency, convenience and portability are just a few. Thank you for the opportunity to review it. If you need a kitchen scale or a pocket scale, pick up yours here on Amazon.

  • MANUFACTURER GUARANTEE: InstaNatural backs our products with a Lifetime Money Back Guarantee, no matter where you buy our product. If you're not satisfied, simply contact us and get a full refund.


  
 Where do I start with this wonderful product? I have been fighting with my skin since my pregnancies; it's either too dry or too oily with uneven skin tone. Other products I've tried for dry skin made my face too oily and vice versa. So when the opportunity surfaced to try a product that has such a guarantee (Lifetime Money Back) and was 98% organic and natural, I jumped at it even though I was still skeptical.
 
After the first time of using the cream, my skin felt tighter though at the time, I wasn't sure if this was good or bad. I decided to keep using it and after a week, my skin felt renewed, refreshed and rejuvenated. My complexion was evening out and surprisingly, my skin was much less oily than before. It wasn't perfect but it was much better than before. So I decided to continue using it to see how much more would change in another week.
 
After 2 weeks, not only was my skin not oily or dry but it was actually lookign healthy and hydrated! After fighting with my skin for so long, I was very pleasantly surprised. I am going to make the investment and purchase another jar or two(2) and try it on the claims as an all-over moisturizer. If you want clear, healthy younger-looking skin, pick up your own here.

InstaNatural Argan Oil Hair Mask Review

Our Argan Oil Hair Mask is a deep conditioning treatment designed to transform dry and damaged strands into soft, shiny, healthy hair. Its restorative ingredients - such as Argan Oil, Japanese Green Tea, Amino Acid Complex, Coconut Oil, Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, Avocado Oil & Vitamin B5 - work together to penetrate hair deep down and deliver ultimate nourishment and hydration to enhance texture and shine. This intensive blend full of organic ingredients also serves to strengthen hair to defend against heat damage and other external aggressors.

Key Active Ingredients:
+ Argan Oil
+ Amino Acid Complex
+ Coconut Oil
+ Shea Butter
+ Vitamin B5



I tend to have very dry hair if I don't add some form of moisture daily to my hair. Being African American and having three (3) children, it gets very tedious trying to deal with moisturizing my hair every day. So when I got the opportunity to review this hair mask, after hearing so much positive things about argan oil, I decided to give it a try. I was very sceptical though as to whether or not it would actually do anything for my hair.

I decided that I would give it about 2 weeks to see if there would be a difference in my hair's texture and moisture. I didn't even need to wait that long; after a week my hair was much softer, voluminous, and had body again without feeling heavy and weighed-down. After 2 weeks, I didn't need to apply anything to my hair for at least 2 or 3 days. Needless to say, I am in love with this mask for myself. I will purchase another jar for my daughter's hair since her hair needs moisture even more than mine does. I will update the post with the results of my daughter's experience.

For your own hydration experience, pick up a jar here!

I was excited to try this garlic press because I tend to buy garlic in bulk and it gets tedious chopping that much garlic. When I first applied for this I wondered if I could really use it for as much as I thought because I thought it might have been a cheap press. Upon receipt of the press, I was surprised that the package was much heavier than I expected it to be. So I was pleasantly surprised and that was a great start!
 
At first use, I tried it to see if I could crush the garlic without peeling the garlic. I was pleased that it peeled the garlic and still pressed it through. However, it was also was a little bit hard to clean the skin from the receptacle. Still beats peeling pounds of garlic though. The next thing I tried was peeling some of the cloves before using the press. It was somewhat easier to press through without the skin, but it still left a thin film in the receptacle.
 
If you dislike peeling garlic, then the press will work wonderfully for you. If you are doing small amounts of garlic, as in only pressing garlic at the time you need it, and not storing garlic as I do, then this is perfect for you.
 
The video had said that you need both hands to press the garlic so I was expecting to have to press really hard. I ended up using just one hand to press the garlic though there was some effort required. All in all, I love this press and have used it multiple times already since receiving it. My only request for this press is that the receptacle be made bigger, or at least offer different sizes. 


Pick up your own and try it out here!

I have gone between extremely oily skin to extremely dry skin, especially as the weather changes. I was so frustrated with my skin and the back and forth since my pregnancies. I was looking and searching for something, anything that would shrink my pores and even out my skin without the chemicals. When I got the chance to review Day by Day Beauty's Vitamin C Serum, I was pretty open to trying it, if it would work.

When I received it, I washed my face and tried it immediately and it burned a little so I was hesitant to use it again. But I realized that you need to add a moisturizer after using it. So the following day, I repeated the process but added the moisturizer after. It was much better though it still burned slightly, barely noticeable. I waited for a reaction but it never came so I continued to use it. After about a week of using it, my pores were visibly shrinking, my skin was tighter (firmer) and just looked overall healthier. Yes, I said a week! After almost 30 days, my skin looks and feels much healthier and I will make this a regular part of my skin care regiment.

So if you have issues with your skin, whether it be uneven skin tone, wrinkles, sun damage etc., pick up a bottle here on Amazon of Day by Day Beauty's Vitamin C Serum and let it work just as well for you.

Most people, when they start to look at becoming a vegetarian can be slightly overwhelmed at all of the different information out there. Especially when it comes to losing weight and staying healthy at the same time! That is why I wrote this book. I wanted to clear up a lot of that confusion and give you a very simple, quick to read guide to losing weight from eating like a vegetarian.
In “Vegetarian Weight Loss” you will discover:
  • How being vegetarian helps you lose weight - the scientific proof is all there, being vegetarian will make you lose weight!

This book is pure cutting-edge content from someone who has spent the past 3 years and thousands of hours of research testing and refining what really works to bring you only the best of the best recipes, methods , and weight loss tips.




Like a lot of other women, I wanted to lose some weight. I had already been thinking about switching to being vegan so when I got the opportunity to review this book, I was excited. I first skimmed the book and picked out which recipes I would like to try first and which ones I would probably not try at all (picky eater alert!).

Each time before that I had tried to cut out meat, I find myself going back to it because there wasn't much I could find, in texture and taste, to satisfy me. The recipes in this book though, were easy to follow and made substituting meats very easy. While I only got to do it this time for a week, I will definitely be doing it for a longer period of time until I am able to switch permanently!

I love how Jonathan Vine broke down the different types of vegans/vegetarian lifestyles without making it seem intimidating or overly strict. There are also recipes that allow for adjustments per lifestyle chosen. This book is such a great resource for beginners and those who have been in the lifestyle for a while. Even my children loved some of the recipes and would ask for seconds. So kudos to Mr. Vine because my children rarely ask for seconds on anything with vegetables.

If you are looking to lose weight (I lost 7 in the week I did it) or just want to transition to a healthier lifestyle, pick up a copy of the book here on Amazon!

Navigating Emotions for Parents e-book Review


Navigating Emotions for Parents is a collection of simple, in-the-moment mindfulness exercises to stop and change what we do when we feel upset so we can enjoy more time with our kids. Each exercise is only a page or two long and you can read one then practice it for a week or so and make it your own. By the end of the book you’ll have twenty useful tools to help you navigate the emotional waters of parenting.

Written by mom of five, meditation facilitator and parent educator Amy Phoenix, Navigating Emotions for Parents points the way to helping ourselves and our children implement alternatives to harshness when we feel frustration, anger and even rage. More details can be found at: http://presenceparenting.com/navigating-emotions-ebook/.


So what did I think of this book?

Honestly, at first I would say "this is some of the dumbest things I've ever read in my life. How could this possibly change the way I react?" But as I read the different sections, that was one of the excuses given as to why one may not succeed; we get in our own way. So I decided to put aside how I felt and try it for the sake of my children, first and foremost and then myself.

I really wanted to stop yelling so I decided to give it a try. I must say that even upon the first attempt upon implementing some of the methods given in the book, I noticed the difference; even if only because I felt too silly to be angry. I decided to try it for an entire week before even attempting to begin a review so I could give a fair assessment.

I must say that aside from the "prayer" in the book, I have been pleasantly surprised that these methods actually work. My children come talk to me freely with no fear of mommy being upset now.

So, thank you a million times!! If you are like the person I was that got easily annoyed and took out my frustrations on my children or blew up, please, I implore you to try this book for your own and your children's sake. Pick up your copy here .
