This is the second brush set that I am trying from Craftamo, and these are just perfect! The set is a great gift idea for any art enthusiast, amateur or even an actual artist. The brushes are a good quality, and the carry case is multi-use - it can be brought up to be used as a stand or simply to carry them. I have to say, I was not expecting the brushes to be as long as they are. They are, however, comfortable to use. They come in various sizes and shapes, some come with the plastic caps that help protect their shape for a longer period of time. Just like the other Craftamo set I tried, the hairs are synthetic, and still manage to work as well as animal hair-brushes. The quality is great, there is no shedding that I have noticed. Some of the brushes come a bit hard, but using some water or paint makes them turn soft. With the length of them, they can actually be used to paint on materials without getting too close to them, which can be great if you are prone to splashing things al

I got this set of paints for my step-daughter, and she was thrilled. She is a beginner, so she is just starting to use paints of her own. This set is great for that, since it includes a small (but very usable) palette too. This Craftamo set includes all the novice colors, you get white, black, brown, green, and some other colors in between. I like the size of them, I have previously bought acrylic paints and they came in much smaller tubes, these are a good size, 27 ml. That is pretty decent for painting on/off, in my opinion. I love how the tubes were sealed, also, making sure they get delivered in perfect condition. The paints, I think should not be used for face painting and metal, but they do a good job on canvas, or even paper. A good thing is that you can actually blend them, so you get whatever hue you are going for while painting. They turn waterproof when dry, so any cleanup should be done before that happens, luckily I did read the comments of this and managed to get that

These headphones look really nice. They have a good sound quality and come packaged perfectly for gifting. The style is interesting, I haven't seen many earbuds that look like this. First of all, these KingYou earbuds, I have to say, have a great style. They combine shades of grey with black and red, and you get three sizes of soft silicone eartips. That can be extremely helpful when you do require something off the "regular" size of earbuds. For me, I always have to pick the small ones, which I did with this set also. It fit perfectly and it did not bother me at all. I had no issues getting these in and they surely didn't fall either. That was nice. The sound quality is pretty good, especially for the price. They added deep bass to these, which I prefer to other headphones, mostly because I don't like flat sounds. These come with a multi-function button, just like the other KingYou headphones I have tried. You can answer calls, end them, even put them on ho

The AVWOO Bluetooth speaker is a nice addition to my regular gadgets. It has a nice design, a good quality sound, and has some interesting additions, like a sub-woofer and an FM radio. This is definitely not the first, nor the last Bluetooth speaker that ends up with me. What it has as a novelty is the design. I have to say I am impressed with the wood grain look, it has caught my eye since I first saw this on Amazon, and it looks exactly the same as the pictures they posted. It has no flaws or scratches, that also is one thing that is great with the packaging this comes in, it is a thicker carton box, so nothing gets damaged, or at least not easily. I am in love with the sound! I have bought a lot more expensive speakers that sounded a lot more flat. I guess the addition of the sub-woofer really helped. I put on Queen from my Amazon Music app and it has a really nice sound. A lot better than some other bluetooth speakers we have in the house. My husband, who enjoys music just as m

This is the first spinner I got. I have to admit that I did not get this for me, but for my husband, who does enjoy this kind of trinkets and has the coordination to actually make them work. I honestly don't have the skill set needed for this. But, he is happy with it, and has been spinning at it for the past few days now. So, my review will be based mostly on things he mentioned and I observed. The spinner is made of plastic and metal. the plastic part is really smooth, it doesn't weigh much at all and you get around a minute of spinning time until you have to work it out again. That should not be a problem, in my opinion, if you are someone with ADHD and need to constantly be doing something with your hands. There are three weights all in all; from what I read in the description, you can, indeed, change the bearings and the weights, but, alas, there is no link to a product made by the same company for those parts, which I think is the only negative side here. One thing

Let me start by saying that nobody in my house does painting or face painting professionally, but we do have our hobbies. I like painting in watercolor, my husband has his little models, so this set comes in handy. The set consists of 11 brushes, of various sizes (the actual size is specified on each brush, so if you're an amateur in need of a particular size of a brush, you will know which to use). They are beautifully made, and come in blue with synthetic fibers that look and act exactly like brushes using animal hairs. I have to say, that is one thing I do appreciate. Animal well-being is important to me, and having synthetic hairs is definitely a positive aspect. I have used the brushes a couple times and I have not been disappointed. They maintain a good shape even after being cleaned, they don't shed (I have had that problem before). The small caps of the brushes are a perfect way of ensuring that they stay in perfect condition. I think another positive aspect of th

These cotton rounds are very well done, they are practical and yet another great product from AnnaLisa. This is the second order I get from this company, and I can say the quality is high for all their products, at least from what I tried. These rounds are smaller, they are about the regular cotton round size, and they come in a pack of 80. The Premium Cotton rounds are just like the big pads, they have two sides, one is textured, for deep cleansing, the other smooth and silky for applying toners and lotions. I used the textured side to remove nail polish and foundation, it worked great. I did not notice any fleecing from it. The smooth side I am using to apply my eye cream, I love that I don't get an oily sensation and everything is applied the same all over. The Organic Cotton Pads are made of pure organic cotton, which is great for people who enjoy using organic products. I have to say, for being organic, this one definitely does not break the bank! This is the product I fin

This is a great gift idea for a wine, champagne, or even soda water enthusiast. It looks really classy, is easy to use and keeps drinks cold longer. Since I live in a place where it is almost always hot, this was a great item to have at hand. It is made of stainless steel, and, when empty, it weighs close to nothing. I found that it is good to place it in the freezer for a bit too, get it really cold, and then place a bottle in it. That has kept my drinks cold for longer than usual. Of course, adding ice always helps! But that is a bit obvious, I think. The design is simple, classic, it is a plain stainless steel bucket, but it is double walled. The description also says that this is rustless, which is a good quality to have, considering all the condensation and liquid this has to endure over time. I tried this with a regular wine bottle, but also with my usual sparkling water bottle, and it worked quite nicely with both. The description says this works with regular sized wine bo

I have to say, I got these for my husband, since he is on the phone a lot, and they've been working great. The colors are nice, the sound is great. Although the product color says these are black, they are in fact a dark gray/dark brown, but that was not something that mattered to me, or my husband, who is the one who will be using these. These have been used with an iPhone, and there have been no issues so far. The sound quality is pretty good, these headphones are supposed to have wind noise reduction, which I guess can be pretty helpful also in allowing you to hear better what the other person is saying when you are on the phone. The ear pieces come in three sizes, so it can fit anyone. They are made to be comfortable, and have a simple design. The button has a multi-function, meaning that it can be used for phone calls and for picking music tracks. These headphones come in gray and green (white). Just like the other headphones from KingYou that I tried, these come wit

If you're looking for a nice pair of headphones that won't break the bank, this is a good deal! We tend to use a lot of headphones, since it is easier to listen to music and get the most of a song with that, or it's simply easier to plug in your headphones when you're on a call, and go on with your other chores in the meantime. The headphones I got came with three different silicon ear pieces, and I used the small ones, because those were the ones that fit me perfectly. It was easy to remove the ones they came with and put in the small pieces. The color is pretty nice, it is just like in the seller's pictures, so that was something I appreciated, since sometimes you get a different color, and I actually wanted them to look white and golden. The sound itself is pretty good, a lot better than I expected for the money. I used them with my iPhone and with my computer, and the sound was nice, very crisp. There is only one button on them, with the microphone incor
