Product Review: Tweexy The Wearable Nail Polish Holder

June 17, 2016 / No Comments

I love changing my nail polish more often than I get to the nail salon, so I’m faced with that problem of holding my polish in one hand or putting it on the table and risking spillage. So I was pretty excited to try Tweexy — a wearable nail polish holder.

Here are the details about Tweexy $14.95:

Innovative: tweexy is the original, wearable nail polish bottle holder for doing your nails anywhere. tweexy securely and comfortably Fits All Fingers and Holds All Nail Polish Brands. Available in bonbon pink, spa green and sapphire night.
Practical: tweexy eliminates the need for a surface to place your polish bottle on. Easily open your nail polish bottle using one hand. Polish in a car, on a bed, standing, in a restroom, on a train or bus, at the pool or beach, on a couch or chair.
Compact: tweexy is small enough to fit in a makeup bag and weighs less than one ounce. tweexy is made of 100% soft, flexible and comfortable silicone rubber. Does not stretch out or tear and will retain its original shape for years and years.
Economical: tweexy allows you to reach every drop of polish by tilting your hand. tweexy is an affordable Mini Luxury Product, a Must Have for every busy female with an on-the-go lifestyle. Great for Bridesmaids, Hostess Gifts and Stocking Stuffers.
Neat: tweexy solves the problem of drips, spills and the inconvenience of reaching for the bottle. With tweexy, the bottle is always inches from your nails. Transfer tweexy from hand to hand without fear of smudging. Cleans with soap and water.

Why I love Tweexy:
Tweexy made it so easy for me to manage my nail polish bottle and polish my nails at the same time. The rubber nail polish holder accommodates any size nail polish bottle (I tried a few), and easily fits over my finger, allowing me to easily access the nail polish — keeping it close to my nails. Plus I haven’t had any more polish spills since using Tweexy. And with a toddler reaching for everything in sight, I’m so glad that I can keep my open nail polish bottles away from her.

Tweexy comes in several colors, with pink of course being my favorite. Tweexy is a smart, useful tool that makes polishing your nails a breeze.

Look Better Naked: Top 5 Exfoliating Body Lotions

Who among us doesn’t want to retain the beautiful, youthful and radiant skin we were born in? I’m sure we all do; or at least I do! That is the reason why skin care products are gaining more recognition each day. You can’t turn the channel or flip through a magazine without seeing some new product related to promoting skin health. And then of course there are the models with glowing skin. Kind of like Chanel Iman on the left… With that said, as aging adults (and those of us who never plan on aging, but simply want to keep our bodies beautiful) it is crucial that we include exfoliation in our daily, or at minimum, weekly skin care routine. Body exfoliation is the process that removes dead skin cells and protects the skin from harmful effects of fungi and dirt. As a result, it helps the new, glowing skin to resurface. When we think of exfoliating we often tend to think only about our face.However, it is just as important to give the same attention to the rest of our body as we do to our face, neck and décolleté. Remember- our skin is the largest organ we have! As our age increases, the body's natural ability to shed dead skin cells decreases gradually, making skin pale and dull. To regain the soft, glowing, youthful skin we need to exfoliate on a regular basis. Here are my Top 5 Exfoliating Body Lotions: 1. Alpha Hydrox AHA Enhanced Lotion $9.49 This exfoliating body lotion promotes skin renewal and repair, helping smooth fine lines, wrinkles, crow’s feet and forehead creases. A 10% glycolic AHA gently exfoliates dead skin, bringing, younger, smoother skin to the surface. Increases skin moisture while leaving skin looking supple and refined. 2. Burt's Bees Cocoa & Cupuacu Butters Body Lotion $8.00 A blend of rich Cocoa and Cupuaçu Butters mingle with botanical moisturizers like Sunflower and Olive Oils. Burt’s Bees Cocoa and Cupuaçu Butter lotion is clinically proven to make your skin feel soft, smooth and super healthy for up to 24 hours. 3. Alba Botanica – Very Emollient Body Lotion Maximum Dry Skin w/AHA $12.00 A natural, maximum moisture body lotion packed with rich botanical emollients and humectants to relieve dry, itchy skin instantly and provide 24 hours of hydration. This exfoliating body lotion blends aloe vera, green tea and chamomile extracts plus antioxidants to nourish, soothe and soften dry skin on contact. Cellular renewal is supported with alpha hydroxy acids, so extremely rough, dry skin develops a fresh and healthy-looking appearance. 4. DERMAdoctor KP Duty $30 KP Duty incorporates medically proven technology including ingredients for hydrated and healthy skin. Medically potent levels of Glycolic Acid blends with Urea, the dermatologist-recommended humectant, to soften and smooth away the driest, roughest skin. 5. Kiss My Face Moisturizer Peaches & Creme w/ AHA $11.95 This quickly absorbing, 4% AHA moisturizer is recommended for daily use on the face or body to help unblock and cleanse pores, speed up the exfoliation process, allow new, healthy skin cells to emerge and reduce discoloration and age spots.

Bad Beauty Habits: Chelsea Will Stop Sleeping in Her Makeup

I need to stop sleeping with make up on now! (Editor's note–story was written before the first of the year) January 1, 2012 cannot wait. My plan to kick this awful habit is to make it easier to take my make up off at night. Sometimes, as conceited as this is going to sound, I really love the way my eye makeup looks and I just don’t want to take it off. Other times, I am just too tired or simply have forgotten and am too lazy to get out of bed and wash my face. To combat this lazy habit I plan to do the following: 1) Wear less makeup in 2012 2) Keep makeup remover/facial cleansing clothes on my nightstand. I am going to use Organic Wear Facial Makeup Remover Towelettes. About Physician's Formula Organic Facial Makeup Remover Towelettes: Eco-Aroma Therapy™ 100% of the Total Ingredients are from Natural Origin Naturally Gentle & Pure 100% Naturally soft towelettes gently remove traces of makeup and impurities leavening skin soft and supple. Ultra gentle formula conditions and helps soften skin. Infused with Organic Aloe Vera Extract to condition skin.

Organic Orange Water: Helps nourish and restore delicate skin's moisture balance. Organic Lavender Essential Oils: Sweet, natural scent for a calming effect. I am hoping that this plan of action will curb my bad habit. I’m sure my skin and pillow cases will thank me for it! Try these wipes, you will like 'em! Perfect for lazy girls!

Product Review—Hair: Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream

I have never used Phyto products before, when I received the Phyto Secret De Nuit to review, I thought it was a night cream for my face. Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream – the name and description screams FACE product to me, but to my delight, I received a wonderful night cream for my hair. Here are the details for Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream $38: What it is: A night restorative treatment for all hair types. What it is formulated to do: This powerful night cream regenerates the hair fiber and provides up to eight hours of intense hydration, nourishment, and repair. It creates a protective shield against free radicals and oxidation, and leaves hair feeling remarkably stronger, healthier, and shiner. What it is formulated WITHOUT: • Parabens • Sulfates • Phthalates My results: Before I put a new product on my face, I like to smell it. I pumped a small amount on my fingers so I could check the consistency and to take a whiff, see what I’m working with. The texture is nice and creamy with a light, lovely fragrance. I applied the small amount I had on my fingers to my face and went about the rest of my day. Imagine my surprise when I read the directions and realized this product is applied to your hair…oops! I’ve never used a night conditioner on my hair and to be honest, I was thinking I don’t want to go to bed with wet hair and wake up to a pillowcase covered in a gooey mess. Our editor-in-chief doesn’t allow the quick answer of ‘no’ for a product. Just as we have to review and say why we like a product, we also have to say why not. I knew I had to give it a try because like it or hate it, I had to say – why either way. The bottle has a pump dispenser, which dispenses the cream in small amounts. To get the ‘hazelnut’ size amount of product the directions call for, it takes about 3-4 pumps. I apply the cream to my hair by simply combing through my hair with my fingers, the cream absorbs quickly and does not leave my hair feeling wet. I repeat the process concentrating on the ends oh my hair, where I have the most damage and then twist it up in a bun before going to bed. The next morning, style as usual. I am thoroughly impressed. My hair truly feels like it has been intensively nourished, with my ends feeling silky and my hair in general feeling soft. I have found with my hair it’s best not to use the Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream on the day I have washed my hair, it does make my hair feel dirtier sooner, but that could be me using too much product as a little seems to go a long way; about third day is perfect for me. I didn’t look at the price of this product before I used it, but honestly, the cost is worth it. It actually works and my hair feels as if it is being repaired, not just masking my frizzed ends. It is paraben and silicone free also, and packed with good natural ingredients to replenish the condition of my hair. I use this 3-4 times a week and the condition of my hair has really improved – I couldn’t be happier. I now want to try other products from Phyto.
