Nimiah Blackhead Remover Black Mask


This review is for Nimiah Blackhead Remover Black Mask




 I remember when I first saw the black mask products. I thought they looked strange but interesting and have always wanted to try them but really never got around to it.  After seeing numerous reviews, along with a few horror stories about not being able to get the material off without causing skin damage has kept me from diving into the black mask craze.


So here I am today trying my first black mask product.  I received this product at a discount in exchange for my review.  #tomosonreviews


When I opened the lid I was pleased to see a little foil seal - great that it is tamper proof right?  Well when I pulled away the seal the contents began coming out really fast so I probably used a little more than I had planned!


The mask has a slight chemical odor, a little like spray paint.  It's not overwhelming but obviously a little strong right by your nose.  I decided to just try it on just my nose which is where I have the most trouble with blackheads.  



I waited for about 20 minutes for the mask to dry, then began removing it.  It came off easier than I expected but I could still feel the mask pulling on the little hairs and removing some of the blackheads.  My skin is super smooth where the mask was so that is definitely a plus. I tried to photo the removed mask but it is very difficult to see the results.


Overall I think this product works pretty well and will continue to use it.  If you are interested in this product you can get it yourself here.

Hand Crank Music Box - Game of Thrones version


This review is for a Game of Thrones hand-crank music box





The box is tiny and will fit easily on a shelf or dresser.  The sound is clear and the hand crank works very smoothly.  It is a nice addition to any Game of Thrones collection.  Delivery can take anywhere from 7 - 20 business days after ordering but it is of good quality and packaged nicely.


I've created a video of the music box playing and it can be found here: 


Product details as provided by the seller:


+ Laser engraved and cut hand-cranked music box.+ Material: 4mm birch plywood+ Size: WxHxD: 65x55x40mm 

I received this music box at a discount in exchange for my honest review.

Infinity Celebrity Massage Chair - Update

I decided to write up a summary of my experience with my Infinity Celebrity Massage Chair.  I want to start off by saying that the purchase of this chair was not on a whim but something I had thought about for a long time.  The cost of this model chair is $7999, not a purchase to be taken lightly for sure.

While attending our local Stock Show on January 9, 2018 I saw a display of massage chairs so I decided to check them out.  The salesman was very polite and helpful, showing me all the features and options of the chairs.  Although I was very interested, the  nearly $8000 price tag was still a little overwhelming.  The salesman told me that he would sell me one of the floor models sitting there at a marked decrease in price, $2000 worth!  After being assured that the warranty on one of these chairs would still apply as if it were brand new, and that if there were any issues with the chair he would take care of it, I agreed to go ahead with the purchase.

I took delivery of my chair on 1/24/18.  The three delivery guys were very polite and assembled my chair very quickly.  They turned it on and ran through a couple of tests to make sure it was functioning then left me to my purchase.




I immediately went to the Infinity website and registered my chair for the warranty, thank goodness I did.

To start with, I absolutely loved this chair.  My back, neck, shoulders and feet never felt better and I was even sleeping better after using it.

The only thing I noticed when using the auto programs that the left side arm airbag did not feel like it was inflating as much as the one on the right side.  I increased the air pressure but when the left side was firm enough the right side was very firm and way too painful.  I tried to contact the salesman but did not get a reply.  I then called Infinity and spoke with the service department.  The person on the phone suggested that I loosen the left arm and check for pinched air hoses.  After assuring me that my looking at the hoses would not void any type of warranty I proceeded.  I was unable to see any issue with the hoses so the technician said he was going to ship me some replacement hoses and airbags and send out a technician.

I received the box of parts (3 air hoses, 2 airbags, and a valve/manifold part).  I got a call from the technician to make arrangements for repair.  He arrived 2/22/18.  He looked at the chair and commented that he had never seen one like it - oh great. 




 He worked on the chair for over 4 hours but only succeeded in replacing 3 air hoses.  He did not know how to replace the air bags or how to access where the valve manifold part went.  After replacing the hoses nothing changed in how the chair functioned.  When this technician left he took with him the box of parts and said he was going to return them for me - unsure if he ever did this.

Another call to the service department.  The technician told me he was going to send a replacement arm for the chair and that would fix the problem.  He also said they would send a different technician to do the replacement since the first person did not have knowledge of the chair.

I received the replacement arm on 3/22/18 and a few days later a new technician arrived to do the replacement.  This was done very quickly but made no change in the left arm inflation issue.

  

The service department said they were going to send another part - a main circuit board and that it would be send overnight.  The part arrived and they technician came back a few days later to do the replacement.

This made no difference in the way the airbag in the arm inflated.  Again the service department sent more replacement parts.  After the repairman left I decided to use the chair, which I had been able to do up to this point - minus the under inflating left arm airbag.  When I tried to use the chair I found that the chair was stuck in body sensing mode - this is what happens at the beginning of any use as the chair basically measures the user for height, weight, etc.  This is at the end of March 2018 - so the chair is not usable at this point.

I also attempted calling the Mattress Firm salesman but was unable to reach him and the main customer service person told me I would have to speak directly with the salesman.  

The next shipment of parts came and the technician scheduled a visit.  He called shortly after he was to arrive and told me he was sick.  I agreed to reschedule for a few days later.  I waited for the technician to arrive but he never called and never showed up.  I called the service department the next day and was told that the technician had a family issue and would not be coming back to do the job.  So here I am with another box full of parts.



Technician # 3 was sent to replace the main board, again, two smaller control boards, another valve/manifold part (which was never replaced from the first visit), and some more air lines.  All the boards were replaced but still nothing was better.  He decided not to replace the valve/manifold part.  

Now the service department decided to send replacement wiring.  Technician # 3 back again to replace the wiring.



During the wiring replacement the interior movement of the chair caught the wiring and broke off the ground cable.  Time to send more parts....

I tried calling Mattress Firm again and told them I had not been able to reach the salesman that originally sold me the chair.  I was assured that someone would be contacting me.  Shortly after I hung up the original salesman called me.  I explained what I had been dealing with and he said he was going to speak with management and get back with me.  I have never heard back since.

The latest shipment of parts included 2 wiring pieces, a small computer board, and another main board.


Technician # 2 was scheduled to come out on Saturday 5/12/18 at 10am.  I received a call at 10am from him stating that his daycare provider had not come so he would have to reschedule for 5/13/18 at 9am.  I received a call at 10:50am from the repairman stating he would be arriving in 30 minutes.

Today 5/13/18:  Arrival of repairman at approximately 11:30am.  After removing all the covers and inspecting the inner workings of the chair, he decided that the previous technician had plugged in 2 of the wires backwards which may have blown out one of the smaller boards.  Board replacement and broken wire replacement resulted in the chair beginning to function again, Yay!  

The repairman reassembled the chair and tested it.  It seemed to be working but not completely as it should.  He stated that he was going to recommend to the manufacturer that they send a replacement chair.

After he left I decided to try the chair.  Although the rollers were working and the chair seemed back to its original mostly functioning state, something still seems off.  There is a lot of clunking and odd noises inside.  The automatic programs that I was used to are not doing the same things as before.  The neck massage part is now located at the top and just above my head.  Some of the rolling is very faint but some is extremely hard and painful.

Update*  After going through several auto programs I've figured out that everything is running backwards.  That's why sometimes it hurts and others it's very light.  At the end of all the programs the rolling mechanism returns to the top and turns off.  Now it is going to the bottom and turning off.  Apparently something is plugged in backwards or the program part is damaged.  Ugh!!!

So this is where my story now sits.  From purchase in January (3 repairmen, at least 6 shipments of parts, 10 scheduled visits with 3 no shows) to now 4 months later, I still do not have what I wanted and paid a great deal of money for.  I do not feel that it is unreasonable after all this time to request either a replacement unit or a refund for defective product.

If there is anyone out there that can offer any help or solutions, please comment below.

After everything that has happened, Infinity has agreed to replace my defective chair.  I am expecting delivery of the replacement some time in the next couple of weeks - at least before the end of May.  Hopefully all will go well and I will be able to finally enjoy my massage chair.

*UPDATE*
June 4, 2018 I received my replacement chair and had the defective one taken away.  The new chair seems to be working properly and I am quite pleased.  I really think that Infinity should re-think their repair practices, and possibly do some training with the people they are counting on to perform the repairs - just my opinion.

Teardrop Storm Glass Weather Forecast

This review is for a Teardrop Storm Glass


I have seen advertisements for storm glass units so I was pretty excited to try this one, and I bought it at a discount so I could share this review with you.  The glass contains a mixture of distilled water, ethyl alcohol, potassium nitrate, ammonium chloride and camphor.  Pretty technical stuff!  

The glass is approximately 5 inches tall and is partially filled with the liquid and crystals.



The instructions stated that the unit should be placed in an area away from sunlight and not close to an air conditioner - obviously to keep it away from drastic changes. When I received it the weather was very cold and at first glance there were a lot of crystals.


As time went on the crystals settled to the bottom of the glass.....and just stayed there.  The instructions state that it could take 1-2 weeks for the crystals to be come acclimated to their new home so I set up a time lapse camera to keep tabs on the little guys.  Please excuse the blurriness - I tried to set the camera up as best as I could.



As you can see from the time lapse, I got very little response from the crystals.  This time lapse was for approximately 14 days and the weather was anywhere from the 60+ degrees and very nice to 0 degrees and a downright blizzard (welcome to Colorado!).

The instructions show there should have been a marked change in the crystals based on the weather changes I experienced.


At this point I will simply place this little glass on a shelf and see what happens.

If you would like to get one for yourself, please visit
Storm Glass and give it a try.

Glandex Wipes


This review is for Glandex Wipes for pets.





Any pet owner knows that along with the joy and pleasure of owning a pet, comes the times with a fair amount of unpleasant odors.  While we can't bathe our pets every day to freshen the air, we can use these cleansing and deodorizing wipes every day.  They are non toxic, alcohol, and paraben free.  They are gentle, soft wipes with Vitamin E and Aloe, as well as a fresh scent that keeps the odors at bay.

I use these wipes not only for stinky behinds but also for the folds of skin on my bulldog's face, which normally itch and get pretty smelly too.  My dog has been rubbing her face a lot less and smells great!


These wipes are hygienic and can be used on the entire body (keep out of the eyes and mouth of course).  The size is perfect 6" x 8" sheets with just the right amount of moisture to do a thorough cleaning job.  These wipes are veterinarian recommended for anal gland odors - the worst odor ever!
