I recently baked Carolina’s Brownie Mix for the first time and it was an absolute success. As soon as the brownie came out of the oven, the aroma of butter and chocolate if filled my kitchen. After the brownie cooled of, we cut the brownie. It is has a texture of a fudge brownie. It tasted rich with dense texture. It’s chocolaty but not bitter. It’s sweet but not overly sweet. Overall, it’s a well balance ingredient ratio’s to create a delicious brownie.
As a person who loves to bake, I found the baking instruction was easy to follow. I did not do any modification to the recipe or the baking instruction. I followed exactly of the steps by step of the instruction. The other ingredients that I needed to add to the brownie mix are eggs, butter, and all purpose flour.
Apart of the great taste of the brownie, the other thing that I liked about Carolina’s Gourmet Brownie Mix, that they are all natural brownies made with clean ingredients, no preservatives, and no artificial colors. It made me feel good to know that a food that served to my family is came from a natural source.

I recently tried the FoodSaver Handheld Vacuum Sealer to preserve and keep food fresh longer. The FoodSaver Handheld Starter Kit includes one handheld vacuum sealer, one charging dock, and two quart-size zipper bags.
The first item I stored using the FoodSaver was a block of mozzarella cheese. The handheld vacuum sealer is lightweight and very easy to use. Once the vacuum sealer is fully charged, indicated by the green light is turned on. All you need to do is place the food inside the FoodSaver zipper bag, then press the handheld vacuum sealer button on the designated circle area on the bag. Within a few seconds, the vacuum sealer pump removes excess air from the bag quickly and efficiently.
The zipper bag included in the starter pack perfectly fit my half block of mozzarella cheese. After sealing, there was still plenty of space left in the bag, which suggests it can handle larger food items as well.
The FoodSaver vacuum seal technology removes oxygen to extend the life of food, helping it last much longer in the pantry, fridge, or freezer. It keeps food fresh up to five times longer than ordinary storage methods like foil, plastic wrap, and containers. This feature is excellent for reducing food waste, especially for items that spoil easily like cheese or for keeping fresh produce stay fresh longer.

I recently installed the Canvas Lambert Plug-in wall sconce in my bedroom as a new light source. It's been a great addition on my bedroom, especially since it frees up space on my bedside table where I used to keep a traditional lamp. This wall sconce attaches directly to the wall, eliminating the need for a bedside table lamp. It's a perfect solution for anyone looking to save space in a smaller bedroom.
Setting it up required some help from a handyman because it involves drilling to secure the two wall screws, ensuring the sconce stays firmly in place. Once installed, I've found its swing arm feature to be very useful, especially at night when I need focused light for reading. The ability to adjust the brightness with the inline stepless dimmer has also been convenient, allowing me to set the perfect ambiance.
From design point of view, the black color of the wall sconce matches well with my bedside table and other furniture in my bedroom apartment, adding a modern look to the room. Overall, I'm really pleased with how the Canvas Lambert Plug-in wall sconce has improved the functionality and aesthetic of my bedroom.

I recently tried the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk cheek tint for the first time in shade 65. As someone who wears makeup daily, applying compact blush is a routine part of my makeup routine. However, I had never used a blush in liquid form before. Despite the thick liquid texture of the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk cheek tint, I was pleasantly surprised that it didn't feel heavy or cakey upon application. Initially, looking at the tint outside the bottle, I expected shade 65 to be a dark red color. When I applied three small dots on my cheek, the color blended beautifully into a soft pink tone that complemented my makeup.
Being a bit clumsy, I often accidentally dropped my compact blush, resulting in frequent breakage. One of the things I appreciate about the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk cheek tint is its ease of use and mess free application. Now, I no longer worry about breaking my blush and creating a mess since this product is designed to be drop-resistant.

I noticed about that All Nighter setting spray has a lightweight texture. I did not feel the setting spray made my face became cakey or heavy. It is also did not my face became oily.

I tried to use Urban Decay All Nighter claim’s that it their product is transfer resistant free. I tested it by applied the setting spray at least 4 hours, then I dabbed my face with a clean tissue. The result of the test came out, that the tissue is still clean. There is no make up residue that left on the tissue. It did not smudge my make up and kept the make up intact on my face.

I recently tried Purplesful Snacking Popcorn Jalapeno Cheddar flavor for the first time. It has a salty umami flavor that blends well with spicy Jalapeno. However, the spiciness of Jalapeno pepper is not overwhelmingly hot. It just adds a touch of heat that is complements the rich, cheesy flavor.
The texture of the popcorn is still crunchy and fresh when I opened the packaging.
I did not find any trace of the hull that still intact with the popcorn itself. Purplesful Snacking popcorn explained that the hull explodes when it is popped. In other hand, the traditional yellow corn hull is still intact with the popcorn. That made the yellow corn based popcorn often stuck in teeth when we eat it.
From the size point of view, I noticed that Purplesful Snacking popcorn has a smaller size compared with yellow size popcorn.
Another thing about Purplesful Snacking as well is they donate 25% or profits to local children's charities. Not only I am snacking a delicious ancient purple corn, non-GMO popcorn, it is also made me feel better since the snack that I ate is also helping some children in needs.
