JettMe

JettMe is a website offering a useful service for budding social media influencers. It's an interesting website, for $97 you can get a "shout-out" on their homepage with links to your social media platforms. The "shout-out" they provide is just your Youtube channel name, your Youtube channel profile photo, and link to your Youtube channel, Instagram page, Facebook profile/page, and twitter account. They also have a live subscriber count feature on their page that allows you to enter the name of any Youtube channel and see a live update of the current subscriber count. It's a pretty interesting tool to mess around with and enter the names of channels you follow. I had never heard of this company prior to being offered a free "shout-out" in exchange for posting about their service, which makes me wonder how much benefit it provides. Of course, I don't pay much attention to social media marketing, so I may just be out of the loop. I could also be that the service is new and that's why I haven't heard of it. Either way, I am going to give it a try and after I do I will come back and provide an update about what it did for me. In the meantime, check it out if you're trying to grow you social media reach.

MatchaDNA Certified Organic Matcha Green Tea Powder

I love tea. I love all forms of tea. So whenever I have the opportunity to try a new kind of tea I take it. There are some tea varieties I end up not liking as much (or at all in some cases, I'm looking at you Rooibos!), but usually, I like most teas I try. So when I was given a chance to try this Matcha green tea, of course, I went for it. To me green tea smells like grass hay, I'm not sure if anyone else notices that smell or not, but it is unmistakable to me. That's a bit worrisome because I am allergic to grass hay, but I have never had any trouble drinking green tea so it's okay. Anyway, I was really expecting this to be just a small canister of tea to try out and boy was I surprised when I opened the box! I should have known it was going to be a big canister because it was clearly labeled as one pound of Matcha powder, but my brain didn't register that part until I actually opened the box and saw the canister. After marveling at the giant tub of tea I had just received I proceeded to smell it because I smell everything I get. I'm weird that way. It smelled like all green tea does, so my next step was to go ahead and make a cup of tea. I like Matcha powder for its ease of use. There's no steeping time required, which means it doesn't take as long to get ready, so it's perfect for busy mornings. I like this matcha tea, it's pretty good. I'll be buying more when I use all this up, although that might take a while.



This is a lot of tea, and it pretty good too. Get some at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077572GG8

Investing Quick Start Guide

This book is a great read for anyone interested in getting into investing and anyone who is just starting out in investing. The author provides a lot of quality investment advice in easy to understand terms without being condescending. I have read many books on investing in my life time, and they always seem to be written in a manner that is either quite condescending to the reader or in terms that a true beginner may not understand. This book manages to avoid both of those pitfalls and create a useful and helpful tome of investing knowledge and advise in a way that is easliy accessible to people at all levels of their investing journey. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to get started investing.

Jadience Stress Relief Soak

I received this Jadience Stress Relieving Soak to test and review. Upon receiving the package with this item, the first thing I did was open it up and smell it. I am really sensitive to smells, and some smells make me feel ill (headaches, nausea, etc) so I always worry about new products. Well, I was pleasantly surprised with the smell, it has a nice sort of savory smell that reminds me of autumn and winter cooking. It does require a lot of the product, you are supposed to use about half of the bottle per bath so a bottle of it doesn't last very long. It does seem to help a bit with stress because a nice relaxing bath makes everything better. I think this product is a perfect gift for anyone in your life who has a lot of stress to deal with (so, basically everyone). It's a perfect gift any time of the year. If you through in a nice book and a good bottle of wine you might just become your giftee's new favorite person!



This is nice for a soothing bath. Get it at https://naturalskinrx.com/products/stress-relieving-soak

Dog, Cat, Horse Sore Muscle Pain Relief Spray

This pain relief spray works for cats, dogs, horses, and rabbits. I though my sister's dog and cat could benefit from this product because they are both getting old and having issues with arthritis. There are some ingredients in the spray that worry me as they are not necessarily a good choice for animals. One of those ingredients is "natural lavender scent" which is concerning because lavender is not safe for cats. The other ingredients seem to be mostly okay, though I'm not sure how effective they would be at relieving pain. It isn't really harmful, but there's no proof that it provides any actual benefits. It seems like an okay product to try for your pet if you have a pet experiencing muscle pain. Always speak with your vet before trying any supplements or products on your pet.

Matcha Green Tea Scrub

So, when I first opened the box this Matcha Green Tea Scrub I wasn't sure what to expect. The outer packaging is really nice and pretty with a vibrantly colored butterfly on it. It's definitely a good package design that will draw your eye to it on a store shelf. That outer butterfly canister removes to show a simple clear container full of almost sparkly green scrub. The outer canister is cardboard so it is biodegradable, always a nice bonus! There is a tamper-proof seal on the inner canister, which was a bit difficult to remove. The scrub itself has a slightly floral smell to it, but it's not to strong. It isn't goopy or wet, it's pretty much dry like a big tub of salt. It's easy to use, you just scoop a little out and rub it on your skin. It's not too gritty, so it doesn't cause irritation, but it is gritty enough to gently exfoliate your skin and leave it feeling soft and fresh. It's a nice product, great for aynone looking for a body scrub.
