$1 STORAGE HACK 

I have a very small closet and usually storage is a big struggle, especially storing my bulky sweaters in Spring and Summer as they take so much room and they will not be getting worn for few months. So I discovered this brilliant way to store them, so they are not taking space in my closet and they stay clean and fresh.
I bought Vacuum storage bags from Dollar tree for $1, yes these bags are available at different retailers and for the large bags they start from $5 and up., So I bought one bag from dollar tree to see how the quality is and how it compares to the more expensive options and I was pleasantly surprised that it works just as well as the other more expensive ones.
These bags are very useful for travelling too, as it compresses the clothes and saves so much room in the suitcase.
Here is the bag from Dollar tree

I stored 8 sweaters in one bag under my bed for 5 months and the bag remained sealed  the sweaters came out fresh and wrinkled a bit but after hanging them back the wrinkles were gone and no need to iron or steam.

Picture of the bag with sweaters :


 Sweaters out of the bag and  it shows how bulky it can get to store these.



hope this post was helpful and everyone can take advantage of these bags, the possibilities are endless of utilizing the bags from storing baby clothes , extra towels, spare bedding to formal wear.

                                FADE ACNE SCARS,AGE SPOTS, SUN SPOTS & DARK SPOTS
                                         USING ONE PRODUCT!


I have been Suffering with Adult acne for 10+ years, it really got bad after the birth of my third Child.  My hormones decided to go crazy and I have developed PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome).  Sounds pretty scary, right, well it's basically a fancy word for hormone imbalance where the biggest symptom is Stubborn Acne.   I have tried several different Cleansers, prescription medication, acne treatments and God knows what else to get rid of Acne but unfortunately either the products didn't work or it provided only temporarily fix.  The worst part was that I ended up getting several Acne scarring.   I even tried several different type of serums but no luck :-( 

After what seemed like everything failed I finally decided to simply invest in good concealers and work my magic to cover them.  This is my saga and little 411 on my Acne story!!

I'm pretty sure you are either sad by now or somewhat depressed after reading the above, however don't be as I do have some good news for people who can relate to the above.  I heard about this miracle Oil from a friend regarding how it does miracles.  Having tried everything else I figured well I don't have anything to loose so I decided to do little more research and to my surprise the reviews on the product were pretty impressive and the best part was it was fraction of the cost compared to what I have spent on many other products.  Also since the product had all natural ingredients I figure, well it can't get any worst.  So I decided to try it out and ended up buying it.  After some research I discovered that amazon was the cheapest place to buy it.   The delivery was super fast and I'm glad to say that I have been using this for over a month now.  So basically I use it at night after I cleanse my face and put the Oil on my face and go to sleep, in the morning my face looks brighter and hydrated and best of all I have seen significance difference in my scars, they appear much lighter.  I'm sure by now you are wondering what the heck is she talking about, ok so without any further delay, it's Rosehip Oil, it is very fast absorbing and does not have bad smell..

Give it a try , U won't regret it!!!!
