GL-Sail 36 Pack Diamante Tipped Gel Pens

These GL-Sail Premium Gel Color Pens for Arts & Crafts come in 36 different assorted colors. You get

12 Glitter, 12 Neon and 12 Pastel colors. There are no repeated colors in the case and the pen tips range from 0.8-1.0 mm Fine Tip. The colors are bold and vibrant, and never bleed through paper. These pens also come in a very nice and sturdy plastic case that holds everything in place.

These pens are really great for scrap booking, drawing, coloring (those adult coloring books!), various crafts, doodling, decorating, and so much more. You can use these pens for just about anything you can think of.

These pens are really good quality, the pens have such a nice fine tip to them and the ink flows right out of them from the first use. I absolutely love the super fine tip to these pens as it makes for such nice writing and crafting. I also find that these pens work wonderfully when I’m coloring in my adult coloring books. They get into small areas perfectly and make the whole picture look fantastic. I also love the colors you get with these pens. They are so colorful and look so beautiful on the page.

I also love the case that these pens come in. The plastic case helps keep your pens together and organized. You can carry them with you easily and you definitely don’t have to worry about losing them when they are all together in a nice case.

I did receive these pens at a discount for my honest and unbiased review. I was not compensated in any other way and all opinions are my own.

Review:

This package of paints has 12 colors that include: titanium white, lemon yellow, medium yellow, yellow ocher, burnt sienna, scarlet red, crimson, midnight blue, blue lake, light green, forest green and mars black.

I really liked the assortment of colors that was included. The paint itself had a nice buttery texture and was very creamy. It also went on very smoothly when painting. The thickness of the paint was about perfect.

I had no problems blending the colors, and they looked very bright and vibrant as well. I really enjoyed painting and crafting with these paints. I would recommend them to anyone who crafts or is a beginning painter!

I absolutely love this cube and wish I had more of them. I could think of a ton of different uses for them. I would love to keep one in the car, a few in my dresser drawer to keep things organized, and of course I’d keep a few around for traveling. I’d also love to have one for my son’s small little toys (think cars). I think that would be very handy! He could carry them all around easily, and keep them organized. I think these little cubes would also be great for making a home-made first aid kit. They would be the perfect size and would be easily accessible and portable.

Rainbow Bandz Loom Refill Pack

About:

New Improved Highest Quality, Brightest Color Rainbow Band refills available.

The RAINBOW BANDZ refill pack comes with 5400 bands in 9 different bold, beautiful colors including Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Pink, Purple, Orange, Black and White. 100% Compatible with all loom kits.

The highest quality organic latex free materials used in manufacturing process. Greatly reduced smell via special airing process in manufacturing & bags designed with airing holes.

365 Day Money Back Guarantee - if you aren't happy for any reason you can get a full refund no questions asked or an additional pack sent out to you at no charge (your choice!).

Review:

When I first received this pack of refill bandz, I was shocked at how large the pack was! You get 5400 bands in 9 different colors. All of the colors were very vibrant and fun! The colors were neon yellow, black, neon pink, white, neon orange, blue, neon purple, red, and neon green.

I liked that all of the different colors were separated so as to not get all mixed together and hard to find. I like to sort out the colors so when I make a band (or whatever), I can easily pull out the colors I need or want. I also like that these bands have no rubbery smell at all! Most bands have a strong rubbery smell to them, these bands do not! They are also much better that regular bands in that they don’t break easily.  These bands are strong, sturdy, and have a very nice elasticity to them. They are really nice to work with. I am also very happy that they are latex free, non-toxic and lead-free.

These bands are compatible with any loom kit and are actually better than the bands that most kits include. I was really impressed with the quality of these bands.

The kids were very excited to start maing bracelets and one even made a necklace. The bright colors really made their art work pop. We were all very happy with these bands. They were also excited that they didn't break all the time like their other bands do. Overall, we had a great time with these bands!

You can get this very large pack of Rainbow Bandz on Amazon.com and you can visit Rainbow Bands on their website for more information.

Julep Maven Subscription Box

I absolutely love subscription boxes. I love getting little surprises in the mail, who doesn’t? So I joined Julep Maven because the first box is free (just use code: FREEBOX). I figured I couldn’t go wrong! There is almost always a code for a free first box, so don’t pay for it! You can always cancel if you don’t like what you get.

What you get:

You get first access to the latest color trends and beauty innovations.
You get flexibility to customize your monthly box.
You get exclusive benefits, like free shipping and 20% off at julep.com.
You get over $40 in value in each box (or try Maven Luxe to get over $60 value).

How Julep Maven Works:

Choose your favorite welcome box.
Add some of the best sellers at special intro-only prices.
Get excited! You can start enjoying the rest of your Maven perks right away.

When you first sign up, you will take a style quiz. At the end, they tell you what they think your style is. You can also look at all the styles and choose which one you feel fits you most. They will send you a box based on these styles. For my first box, I got “It Girl”.  (See below for the different style profiles)

Review:

My first box arrived, and in it were three pretty colors of nail polish, two little spongy filing squares (I suspect were a free sample gift) and a welcome booklet with information on Julep products, etc. It also came with a coupon code for 50% my first order from Julep.com. I actually ended up placing an order right away after getting my box! I absolutely loved all the colors they offer and some of the other products they have caught my eye.

The three colors I got were: Kam – A sort of pastel green color, Princess Grace – What seems to be a pastel peachy color, and Margaret – A pretty pastel blue color. I was pretty happy with these colors.

I also want to note that these nail polishes are made in the USA, are Vegan, and Cruelty free. They also have this information on the packaging of the polish: They have the strengthing power of Hexanal, Even color distribution and superior coverage, Oxygen technology that lets nails breathe, and Antioxidants from pure green coffee extract. I can honestly say I haven’t noticed that on a nail polish before!

Here’s a photo of what I got

I tried out the polishes right away to see how they worked for me. I found that they were easy to apply, had very nice coverage (I still needed a second coat), and lasted me quite a while before chipping – several days. I actually was trying to get it to chip, and couldn’t. I love that the polish has such bold pigmentation and covers so nicely. Most polishes are not quite as smooth and easy to apply. The polish also comes of easily and clean with nail polish remover.

So Maven also has a monthly Maven review where you can preview your box, try a new style, upgrade, add extras, or even send your box to a friend (no extra charge)! I love that you are able to see what your next box will be and even change it if you want. Now that is fantastic! If you love what they show you, you don’t need to make any changes. The monthly Maven Reveal is on the 20^th-24^th each month. On the 27^th of each month, they will start shipping boxes. And on the 1^st, there is a Secret Store that opens – it’s an exclusive perk for Mavens who took the last box.  

The different style profiles include:

It Girl – A natural trendsetter who’s not afraid to be bold. You love cutting-edge colors and finishes that make a statement.

Classic with a Twist – An  iconic beauty with a timeless aesthetic. You’re drawn to chic, elegant colors that pair well with any occasion.

Boho Glam – A dynamic free spirit with a creative eye. You favor a mix of earthy tones and playful, vibrant colors.

Bombshell – A confident frill-seeker with magnetic appeal. You adore bold, glam colors and anything that sparkles. Modern Beauty – A savvy tastemaker obsessed with the art and science of beauty. You’re always first to try the latest, most innovative beauty products.

Overall:

I loved my first box so much that I went and used the 50% off right away on Julep.com! I also loved the benefits of being a Maven (Getting 20% off everything on top of the 50% and free shipping!) That’s just a deal I couldn’t refuse.

Julep has so many beautiful colors and colors to suit everybody. They also have some amazing sale prices (if the products aren’t out of stock already). You seem to have to be quick to get the deals!

If you love getting surprises in the mail, getting awesome nail polishes or beauty products (they have them too), you will love being a Julep Maven!

If you have any questions about this that I haven’t answered, please leave a comment! I’d be happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability.
