Playhouse

This is so so so awesome!!! I am yet to buy balls for the ball pit but I can already say this is such an awesome play structure for the indoors - the description says indoors outdoors but I will keep mine indoors not to get it too dirty haha. The entire play structure consists of three parts - the ball pit, the tent, and the tunnel. The tunnel has a sheer part so nobody will freak out when they get in, they'll always see what's outside of the tunnel :)
All three pieces fold easily into a carry bag which is provided. The product itself really doesn't have huge smell to it, it first smelled like a brand new polyester toy when I took it out of the carry bag but the smell faded within matter of a few minutes. No smell at this point.
The fabric is sturdy and won't tear easily. The seams are soft and the pieces holding structure are not sticking out anywhere. The pieces can be tied together if you want to make sure they keep together when more kids play at once and it's a rougher play.

I have to add I have not been THIS impressed with a product in a while, my little one is super excited about it and so am I! Now I just need to buy a big bag of balls to make it even more fun!

Umbrella

This is a pretty neat umbrella. I love that it is collapsible and so easy to use. There is a button on the handle that you press and the umbrella opens up. You press it again and it collapses, and then you just push the metal rod in. The umbrella is a great size and it comes across as quite sturdy. The umbrella is supposed to be made windproof, so will update accordingly if I find that it lacks in this area - it did rain today but the wind was not as strong as usual so cannot rate the wind performance just yet. It did keep me dry though :) The handle is from a non-slip material and did not slip out of my hand even when my hand was a little wet which I was pretty impressed by.

Rating four stars out of five because I was selfishly hoping the umbrella would be a little lighter than it in fact is - I have had a couple of umbrellas in the past that were lighter, and one performed quite well in the wind, so I was hoping this one might be a good replacement but despite the size I still find this umbrella a little heavy - which is acceptable on days when it's guaranteed to rain, but I wouldn't keep it in my purse just in case.

All in all it is a great product!

Organic matcha tea

How can someone live without tea....??? Seriously. That's something I'll never understand. I can go without coffee, but I love my tea!. I have grown up drinking tea for breakfast - as a small kid, I used to put a sugar cube in, by the age of 10 I did not want anything to hinder the taste of tea anymore. Eventually I discovered green tea, rooibos, and any other tea I could get my hands on.
It was not until a few years ago that I discovered Matcha....and I have been hooked ever since. Matcha is almost like green tea on steroids :) Matcha Green Tea Powder has an Amino Acid called L-Theanine, which enhances energy, mental clarity and focus, but without the jitters a coffee can give you. At first I was so unsure about the powder but I got over that fear rather quickly.
Matcha is rich in antioxidants and helps you stay healthy if you drink it on a daily basis. I love that this particular product is 100% pure organic. No bad stuff added, it's as pure as it can be! Matcha is naturally gluten free and vegan.
A little disclosure, I don't drink Matcha for weight loss so I am unsure if it works that way or not. I just love drinking tea and I do love that it has so many antioxidants. It simply makes me feel good.
If you are not used to drinking tea, starting with Matcha might be a bit of an overkill. On its own, Matcha tastes a bit bitter. But there is a solution to this - this powder is awesome to add to fruit smoothies or shakes, or you can make it as a latte - if you still feel like the latte is too bitter, you can add a bit of honey or agave to sweeten it. And you can even add this powder to your baking - muffins with Matcha are super yummy!
This particular Matcha comes in a ziplock bag which helps to keep it fresh for a long time.

Give Matcha a chance, you won't regret! :)

Clairol

Thanks to @BzzAgent and @Clairolcolor, I got the opportunity to try the new Clairol Natural Instincts colour for free.

It came nicely packaged as packages from BzzAgent always do :) This was inside the box :)

I have coloured my hair a number of times already, so the whole coloring process was nothing new to me. I have some greys so I was a little curious about how will a wash-out colour do with the greys! And all in all, it's ok! It did cover them upon coloring, but the colour started to wash out pewrry quickly and the greys started showing first.

The colour itself did not have a strong chemical smell, it was easy to apply and I did not use up an entire hot water tank when I was washing the colour out after waiting the estimated time so that was definitely a bonus :)

All in all, this is a good colour if you want to try something new and may be different from your usual colour - since it does wash out, you won't do full damage as you would with permanent colour! I am curious though if the colour will wash out completely - my experience even with the wash-out colours has so far been that traces of the colour do stay in my hair even after 40+ washes so let's see about Clairol!

Here are the main pros and cons:

+

wash-out color - if you are unsure the shade will work for you, you won't be stuck with this colour

the smell is not a harsh chemical smell

easy to apply

-
wash-out color - if you want to cover greys, not the best option
the hair feels super nice and soft after coloring
