Review: Shandali Ultrasport Travel Towel

Disclaimer: I received these items in exchange for an honest review. I was not required to post a positive review. These are my honest opinions. Your experience may differ.

When I first opened this towel, I wasn't all that sure what to expect. I had heard some wonderful things about microfiber towels, but the ones that I have tried, were lackluster. The water just rolled right off from them, and nothing was absorbed.

At first impression, the texture of this towel was completely different than the other microfiber towels I have tried in the past. That peaked my interest a little more. It was soft, and almost felt like velvet or suede. It was definitely very soft. The second thing I noticed about this towel was the size! For being a "travel towel" I was expecting this to be much smaller, but was actually quite a good size.

Many of you have heard me talking about my upcoming camping trip- It is happening very soon! This Shandali Travel Towel will definitely be included in my bag. This is the perfect size to put on my car seat so they don't get too wet or sandy from the beach. This is also the most perfect size for drying my hair after swimming in the lake all day.

I of course, had to test the absorbency of this towel. I "spilled" some water, and then wiped the mess up with this towel, and it worked wonders. The liquid soaked right in, and it definitely does dry quickly. This towel is perfect for everybody. People who play sports, or swim, or camp, or even your little ones (you know how quickly they can get wet around water, even if it is just a sprinkler). This would be a perfect gift for the active person in your life!

Review: Skout Organic Trailbars and Trailpaks

Disclaimer: I received these items in exchange for an honest review. I was not required to post a positive review. These are my honest opinions. Your experience may differ.

I usually am not a huge fan of energy type bars, mostly because they are always dry and tasteless. I was very wary of trying these bars, because of all of the bad experiences I have had previously. I tried one of the chocolate flavored ones first, because I was craving something sweet. 

When I blog, I blog at nighttime, and I end up craving sweet things. Instead of eating a candy bar, or something unhealthy, I tried these trail bars, and I have to say, I was very impressed with the flavor, and the texture. These were moist and packed with flavor. They also gave me a boost of energy, and I was able to keep on track while I was writing. I was able to try all five flavors:
- Blueberry Almond
- Apple Cinnamon
- Cherry Vanilla
- Chocolate Coconut
- Chocolate Peanut Butter


 

These bars are Organic, Vegan, Gluten Free, Non GMO, Dairy and Soy Free, contain naturally occurring Protein, Fiber and vitamins, and contain no refined sugar or fillers. 

The other product I was able to review from Skout, was Raw pumpkin seeds. I was very impressed with these! When I was a kid, on Halloween we would toast the pumpkin seeds after we hollowed out of jack o lanterns. After trying these Raw seeds, especially with the flavorings on them, I don't think my plain old toasted seeds will be as satisfying. They are very fresh, and the portion size is quite a lot. If you are feeling the "slump" in the middle of the day, these would be a very good snack. I like to keep these next to my computer if I start to get that "snacky" feeling. They help me curb my appetite, and keep me on track, so I don't have to get up and break my concentration by going and grabbing a snack. 

I was able to try all three of the flavors:
- Black Pepper BBQ
- Jalapeno Salsa
- Sea Salt

My favorite flavor was without a doubt, the Black Pepper BBQ. Each serving size contains 10 grams of protein. 


I loved both of these products. I would recommend them to anyone. If you are an active hiker, these were made for you, but even if you are a busy mom, looking for a pick me up throughout the day, or accidentally skipped breakfast or lunch, these would be great!
