A great company for your bathroom and kitchen needs: Loban on Amazon.

Standard

If you are doing renovations, and have been walking the home improvement stores, you know how pricey everything can be. It’s a shock really. I have a love/hate relationship with HGTV, because I swear these shows help raise the cost of these type of products. You shouldn’t have to spend a fortune just to replace a faucet or shower head.

I’ve had the pleasure of being able to test out some of the Loban store products on Amazon. They have products that cover the kitchen and bathroom arenas in regards to faucets, shower heads and systems, brackets, shower arms, water hoses and adapters, accessories, and more.

They offer products in many finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brass, Antique Finishes, Brushed Nickel, Chrome, and Gold Tone. They have very modern, classic, and what I call Fancy designs, to choose from. They even offer hands free faucets on their storefront as well. Hands free sounds very exciting to me. I have tested out a few featured in this review. One taller, 12” waterfall faucet. It can be used with both a vessel sink and a regular sink. A shiny gold 10” shower head, that has LED lights in it. That is really fun by the way. 2 Shower arms at just under 16”: Chrome, and Stainless. The last item I just reviewed is what I call a modern throw back to a tub filler, set up.

This particular tub filler has a waterfall effect to it, in regards to how the water comes out. The tub spout actually swivels side to side as well. It has two separate knobs for hot and cold, and a switch that moves it from tub filler, to spray nozzle. With this particular tub filler, you have to have a separate control installed for your shower head, if it is a tub/shower combination. The spray nozzle, and this tub filler, reminds me of an old fashioned telephone. This set up is great to wash your pets with, your kids with, or even your feet, if that is all that needs washing.

The shower head arms are made well, and have a very modern look to them. Since these extend out further, and straight, they can handle rain shower, shower heads, easily. They come with a square deck plate, that really gives it a polished, modern look. The Gold shower head I received is also available in their shop in other finishes, and sizes. I love, love, love, the added touch of LED lights. They go on only when the water is running. I didn’t realize how fun they were to have until I saw them in person. It’s a great feature. They use brass construction in their faucets, as well as ceramic discs. These really help keep them drip free, and working well.

Out of the ones I have just tested, and the ones I have tested in the past, I have had great luck with them. I’ve only had one leak at a seam, and it was an obvious manufacturing booboo. It was a bronze version of the Gold shower head, which works beautifully by the way. I haven’t had any odd noises associated with the products I have tested.

We have a few installed for daily use in our home now, and have had no issues at all. In fact, the faucet at the home we are renovating runs better than my moms’ name brand one. We haven’t had any dripping issues, or have had any products stop functioning like they should. They sell towel holders, and soap dishes and more. The prices are great, and they have been very pleasant to deal with. Overall, I am really happy with these products. They are made well, have sturdy construction. I am comfortable recommending these products.

 

I received these for free. I was under no obligation to leave my honest and unbiased review.

Perfect in your daily beauty routine. – FoxBrim’s 100% Pure Organic Castor Oil.

Standard

I have been using organic castor oil for a few years now. I use it in my homemade soap, as well as straight out of the bottle. I absolutely love this product. This particular bottle of Organic Castor Oil from FoxBrim, on Amazon, is one of my favorites. The bottle is a great size, and I keep it in the bathroom as part of my skincare regimen. I rotate my all natural oils during the week, and this is one of them. I have used this product in the past, so I am very familiar with it, and can honestly say it’s one of my favorites. It is a 4oz glass bottle. It’s a dark brown glass bottle. No chemicals will leach into it since it’s a glass bottle too. Castor oil is extracted from the Castor seed. No Hexane was used to process this product either. People don’t realize it, but a lot of horrible chemicals are used to process what are supposed to be healthy oils. This is organic and Hexane free. Castor oil is known for its high antioxidant count and anti-inflammatory properties. That is what makes it great for skin care. The oil is on the thicker side. Even though, it does seep into the skin. I like to use it as a lip gloss too, since it’s thicker. It doesn’t taste bad as a lip gloss either, lol. I get a ton of allergic breakouts, and quickly keep them at bay with natural oils. This Castor oil has been very beneficial to my skin. I use it on my face and throat a lot, since that is where I have most of my issues. It’s amazing how fast this natural oil can heal a sore, whereas any prescription I’ve received has not healed my skin. They start to improve it, but then it stops working. I only use natural oils now. Since it is thicker, sometimes I add a couple drops of my tea tree oil to it, and then rub it on my affected area. It’s a very healthy carrier oil when I use it like that. Castor oil is also rich in fatty acids, which also makes it very healthy for your hair, skin, and nails. It really does help too, from my personal experience. You can rub this on your feet before bedtime, and around your nailbeds. I love it in my homemade soaps. This is just a win, win product. There was no animal testing done with this brand. It is a cold pressed, unrefined organic product. I most definitely recommend it.

I received this product for free, in exchange for an unbiased and honest review. – FoxBrim’s 100% Pure Organic Castor Oil.
