Product review: Copina Co. Vanilla Beauty Vegan Collagen Booster Creamer


 


 I purchased the Vanilla Beauty flavor. The vanilla flavor is light and pleasant. Vanilla Beauty Power is slightly sweet. The description says that natural sugar is not added, but it does not state the source of the sweetness. The powder does not dissolve well; as you can see in my photos, there is a bit of power floating in the cup after mixing.

The box contains 10 single-serving tubes. The manufacturer recommends taking 1-3 servings of these collagen support blends daily for 30 days for the best results. So one would need to purchase at least three $30 packs to see results. At the current price of 2.99 per serving, the price is pretty steep.

Product review: Waterpoof Ear Plugs for Swimming by Banaware

 


These waterproof earplugs are good for swimming or even taking showers; they are helpful whenever you want to prevent water from entering your ears. I easily get ear infections, so I have tried different varieties of earplugs, and these earplugs seal the ears better than others. They are made of very soft silicone, so they practically stick to my ears.

The earplugs come with a variety of ear tips to fit different people. They are attached to a silicone cord, so losing the earplugs would be pretty hard.

The earplugs come with a ventilated silicone case, so you can stuff them into the case while wet!

Product review: ZYFE Citrus Orange Scented Liquid Hand Soap Refill 3 Gallon

 



This item includes six 64 oz bottles of liquid hand soap.  The liquid soap smells mildly orange.  It is an industrial-type product that comes in large bottles suitable for refills in a business.  It cleans well, and the scent is okay (typical for an industrial-type soap).

There is no benefit in vitamin-infused soap since there is not enough absorbed through the skin, thus no reason to pay extra for this feature.  Buy it based on price and your fondness of the orange scent.

Product review: Hommaly 2.6 Gallon/240 pcs Small Clear Trash Bags

 


Hommaly trash bags are rated as 2.6 gallons. They are significantly smaller than 3-gallon Glad trash bags. They are only 16" deep from top to bottom. The bottom of the trash bag ends at a point, which means some of the depth is lost when you spread the bottom of the trash bag in the bottom of the bin. When I put it in the small bin in the bathroom, it could not reach the bottom of the bin. Because it has such shallow depth, these trash bags are of limited usefulness. The bag is transparent and very thin. They work well for soft trash like tissues.

Product review: IBSO BOERNI AIBISINO Watch - large face, easy to read watch


 

This is a large watch with a genuine leather band. The dial is 1 5/8" wide.

Amazon's description has a mistake as I write this review, describing the watch as having "The Stainless Steel band," but it looks exactly like the stock photo with a black leather band. I like the band; it is well-made and comfortable. The band is 9" long end to end and 8.5" to the last hole.

Despite being large, the watch is not too heavy; its weight is 1.5 oz.

The watch is not attractive but has an easy-to-read dial. The dial is white with well-marked minutes and seconds.

Product review: Indeme Large Wall Calendar July 2023 - December 2024


 


 This is an 18-month calendar with full pages months from July 2023 to December 2024.  Each daily square is 1.75" tall and 1.75" wide.

I used to order beautiful Lang calendars, which are not only practical but decorate, but in the last few years they got pretty expensive, so I decided to try this style of calendar which is less pricey. This calendar has no images; calendar info is printed on one side of a relatively thin paper (compared to Lang textured thick paper). The finish is flat (i.e., not glossy), so it takes well to pen and pencil for notes.

The calendar is wider than the Lang standard; instead of 12" wide, they are 15" wide. It requires a bit more space, but gives more room for notes.  

The calendar has a metal hang inserted into a spiral that holds the pages, and this hanger works very well: it is easy to flip pages and never tears like a single hole in a Lang calendar.

Bottom line: this calendar is not as attractive as Lang calendars but it is practical and works well for those who like to make notes on the calendar.
