The Deal With Activated Charcoal


I'm all about trying out products and giving honest reviews about them--good AND bad. If my review helps anyone make a decision on a product to purchase, then yay me.

THE PRODUCT SO... activated charcoal has been all the hype (at least ads all over my Facebook). It is used for a number of things but the stuff I bought specifically is for whitening your teeth. I was very skeptical at first, but I decided to go for it after a couple weeks of pondering and researching. A lot of people will say that charcoal is bad for your teeth because of depleting enamel, yada yada... but honestly, this stuff isn't hurting anything. It's no different than brushing your teeth with baking soda, same texture... just black.

THE PROCESS
The directions say to use it twice a day for two minutes, but that seems excessive. I use it once every 4-5 days and for maybe a minute. You only have to use a TINY bit of this stuff. Seriously, less is more (so cliche, right?)! It's a small container for the price, but after I realized how long it is going to last, the price wasn't so bad ($25).

Once you dip your brush, you just brush your teeth like you normally would! It looks scary, but cool at the same time. It makes you look you have a zombie mouth (that's the in thing these days...right?)

Then you rinse your mouth and BAM! Pearly whites!
CONCLUSION I noticed a difference after the first use--which is amazing. I can see a visual difference EVERY time I use this stuff. It's definitely worth the money!! So if you want a quick teeth whitening solution, get this stuff! I bought it on Amazon, you can check it out here!

A Detox That WORKS!

A lllrrriiiggghhtttyyy! For my first blog (like ever), I decided to write about my experience doing the 7 day Jillian Michael's detox.  WHY WOULD I DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS?! I originally decided to do a detox because I was worried about my liver being damaged from OTC allergy med abuse and possibly damage from my love for my vodka... I had been googling (never a good idea) somethings and determined my liver was not functioning properly so I was going to do something about it! H OW I CHOOSE A DETOX I browsed Pinterest (my second love) for some detox ideas when I came across the JM detox. This detox popped up multiple times so I finally checked it out. Not only did it say it was good for the body, but you could lose up to 5 pounds in a week from doing this. It sounded perfect! Since I'm currently trying to lose 5lbs before my wedding in a couple months. So to me, losing weight while detoxing = YAS!! THE PROCESS The detox consisted of 100% pure cranberry jui...

DIY Chicken Coop For Under $70

Yes- you read that correctly. A do it yourself chicken coop for UNDER $70.  The first thing we did was hit up our second home... Home Depot ( I have been to Home Depot more in the last 6 months than a normal person should in their lifetime ). Anyways... we went to Home Depot and bought ten 2 in.x 2 in.x 8ft. ( $2.09 a board ) We knew we wanted the coop to be 4ft x 4ft x 8ft. We used our saw to cut some of the boards in half. Then started to build the frame. We did two 4ft x 8ft frames first. Then we brought them outside and started to build the rest of the frame.  We ended up adding another board in the middle on both sides and the top for more support and to have something to connect the chicken wire to. I was only able to find a 2ft by 50ft rolls of chicken wire. The 4ft would have been ideal but I ended up just buying two of the 2ft. I used wire cutters ( at least I think that is what they are ). The rolls were $16.00 a piece from Walmart. Home...
