Foreo Luna Mini.  Image courtesy of foreo.com No, you're not seeing double.  I did a short review that wasn't really a review, of the Luna mini , awhile back.  I had not yet purchased the Luna Mini, but did shortly after.  During CES 2013, I happened upon the Foreo booth.  My first thought was that it was some kind of pleasure object.  It was around other booths that fit that genre, the items are made from silicone, and they vibrate.  As I was talking to one of their representatives, I was informed that it was a new way to clean your face.  I am an avid Clarisonic user, and have said so from the beginning, but I thought I would give this a try.  I like that it is made of silicone, and that it has a non-porous surface.  Sorry the photo quality isn't the greatest.  Under the device is the USB cable & Authenticity card. The package comes with the Luna Mini, USB cable, User Guide, and Authenticity Card.  It is impo...

When we hear “technology” our minds go to the latest computer components, camera, gadgets, etc., but it's not limited to just that. Technology is present in everything, and today we are talking coffee machines. No; not Keurig.  Those of you who know me know that I cannot stand Keurig.  While they offer one of the largest selections of teas and coffees for their home brewers, it pales in comparison to Tassimo in terms of quality.  We have had a Keurig since they came out, practically, and we have had to replace it numerous times.  I saw the Tassimo ages ago at Bed, Bath, and Beyond, and knew that's what we should get.  We could forget about needing to replace a new machine constantly, and the beverages are much higher quality.  Tassimo also has Timmy's (Tim Horton's) coffee, and even though I'm not a huge coffee fan, I LOVE Timmy's!!!  They really need to open one here. If I have a million dollars (it LITERALLY takes that much to open one), I would. An...

Life n Soul , who brought the world the KiiTAG and amazing Bluetooth headsets, has something new up its sleeve.  While at CES, there were a number of inventions that would make daily life that much easier.   The KiiTAG 2, which is a CES 2015 Best of Innovations Award honoree, is one of those.   It is important to note that the item is not currently for sale.   Their Kickstarter has launched, and I sincerely hope they are able to reach their goal.   Image courtesy of Kickstarter & Life n Soul Developed by Founder/CEO Ronny Tsai, the KiiTAG 2 is an all-in-one that is equipped with a flash drive, key finder, voice memo recorder, mini power bank, and so much more!   He wanted to create an all-in-one, pocket-sized device that would provide several functions without weighing down one's pocket or purse.  Up to four shortcuts can be made on the KiiTAG 2, such as the “fake phone call” (which will give you an excuse to leave a date, for in...

I cannot even being to express how much I love my Clarisonic.  I have the original (I think at one time it was called the "Classic") in white.  You know, the bulkier, heavier device with its own mount.  Despite its bulk and weight, it has been great for my skin, and 5 (give or take) years later it still works like a charm.  The beep and pause, both of which are still present in the newer versions, let the user know that it's time to change areas on the face.  After realizing I would be traveling quite a bit more than usual, I figured if one is good, then two must be better.  I purchased the Mia 2 when all Clarisonic devices went on sale at Sephora awhile back.  They no longer carry it in yellow, which is the color I chose.  Another plus with both devices is the charge, which is phenomenal!  One full charge easily lasts me a month on the original device, and the same goes for the Mia 2.  The biggest difference, aside from the obvious ch...
