Happy Thanksgiving from Review This

 

Today is a day of Thanksgiving in the USA and I wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving on behalf of the entire staff of Review This.

I have many things that I am thankful for, but on this post I'd like to share my thanks for my hobby of photography by sharing with you several of the photos that I have taken this fall.  I always see Thanksgiving as the end of the colorful fall colors and the start of the winter holidays.  

Fall  Photography

In the photo at the beginning of this post, I have shared a photo that I took down on Main Street in St. Charles, Missouri.  They always decorate for each holiday and fall is no exception.  I loved this box of fall flowers set against the wood railing.   Another place I visited to take some fall photos was our Missouri Extension gardens.  Fall is really the end of the blooming season, but there are still some great flowers to photograph.  The photo below shows some bright purple flowers peeking out of an old wooden fence.

I love the beautiful shades of colors of the leaves in the fall.  Here are a few of my favorites from this year.

One of the views I particularly enjoy all year round is the view from the sliding doors in our kitchen.  It looks out past our deck to the trees in a subdivision below us.  It is interesting to see how this view changes with each season.  In the photo below it is a early fall morning and the trees are just beginning to change colors.  The sky is full of color in the early morning light.

As I look at nature and my photographs, I thank God for this beautiful creation He has giving to us.

May you and your family be blessed with a thankful heart!

Reviewing Our Experience And Benefits Of Silicone Soap Holders

 

We have used a variety of soap holders and soap dishes over the years in our bathroom and always felt a little disappointed. Some looked pretty but had no drainage so the soap always had a soggy bottom, others had great drainage but did not look nice. Some were lovely but got broken as they crashed into the ceramic bowl. Some seemed to attract mould or needed cleaning out every single day.  

Due to my skin allergies I have to use a soap that does not have any preservatives so if it gets wet and does not dry out quickly I lose this rather pricey soap into a mush, so I really want to avoid that as I really do not like mushy soggy bottomed soap. 

So we recently were on the look out for a soap holder that would look nice and organised and have great drainage.

We discovered that silicone soap holders can offer us the best of all worlds. They have decent choice of colours, are sturdy and easy to clean, planet friendly and have great drainage. This meant we wanted to look into it further. 

 

Silicone Is Easy to Clean

We found very quickly that these silicone soap holders are so simple and easy to clean. This was very important to us and we feel bathroom hygiene is vital. The material does not absorb water or soap which thankfully helps to prevent mould and soap mush build up. All we do to clean them is to rinse under water and we do also spray with an anti bacterial spray for good measure. We have found them to be the most hygienic soap holders we have ever owned. 

Soap Holders With Good Drainage Design

I love the feature of self draining design in our silicone soap holders. It allows any water to simply drain away. We have found the soap is no longer soft and mushy. As I need to use soap that has no preservatives this has been a annoying issue for me with our old soap holders.  An added bonus is that the soap is lasting rather longer than it used to. 

I particularly like the drainage with these waterfall self draining silicone soap holders. I liked the look of them on the pictures but find them better in real life. They are available in a variety of colours, such as pink, white, black and green. We chose the grey ones to match our decor and give a contrast with the sink and bath.

Durable and Flexible Soap Holders

Silicone is well known for its durability and flexibility and this is obvious as soon as you handle it. 

With plastic and ceramic soap dishes there is a risk of breaking and cracking while silicone soap holders are much less likely to break and also will not harm a ceramic sink if they fall into it. 

Silicone soap holders are ideal for us now as my husband is sight impaired and accidents dropping things or knocking items off surfaces happen. With silicone this is not an issue we need to worry about. 

This would equally apply to households with children and older people or even pets that might go on surfaces and knock things off. The flexibility of silicone also allows these holders to fit in various spaces, large or small.

These items also caught my eye as being very good and useful and you get Three Silicone Soap Holders Slimmer Waterfall Design in white/grey/teal combinations and variations.

Non-Slip Silicone Soap Holder

We no longer have the worry of a soap dish falling and breaking. The non slip surface on our larger silicone soap holders keeps the soap securely in place and we have found no soap slipping off leaping in to the bath at odd moments! 

As we have a shower over the bath and as my husband is sight impaired soap slipping in to the bath while he has a shower is a safety hazard so it was important to us that we solved this issue.

Even when the holder is soaking wet the soap remains in place. On this photo below the soap holder is wet and right on the edge of the bath and it does not fall in.

They also have eco friendly properties being a natural resource and recyclable. 

Soap Holders That Are Good Looking And Great Bathroom Decor

We were surprised at the variety of shapes, sizes, and colours available for silicone soap holders and dishes.

We chose Grey and white as they match our bathroom decor and also provide a good contrast to our white bath and sink. We placed the grey and white flower holders inside each other to give a better contrast visually. 

They look neat and smart for us and for when visitors use the bathroom and are lovely to look at and very hygienic.

We love these Silicone Soap Holder Flower Shape and tend to use these on our sink where they are more on display. They are very pretty and practical and are available in a range of colours white, grey, pink and blue which should take care of most bathroom decor styles.

We have found Silicone soap holders to be very practical and good looking decor for any bathroom. They last a long time and are easy to clean and pretty unbreakable along with eco-friendly properties. You do not need to limit them to the bathroom either as they can equally be used in the kitchen and utility room or downstairs toilet/washroom. We think they are a great choice and well worth considering.

Travel: Cunningham Falls State Park, Maryland

Cunningham Falls State Park located in Maryland is a wonderful place to visit during all times of the year, but especially during the peak colors of fall. On a recent adventure I passed through the Catoctin Mountains and was reminded of how wonderful this area is to visit. Cunningham Falls is an especially interesting area for any outdoor enthusiast. 

By Jarek Tuszyński - Own work, CC BY 4.0, Commons Wikimedia

While driving through the park at sunrise, I saw scattered groups of hikers crossing the road or leaving the parking areas for the trailheads.  I thought it would be a shame if this area isn't known to others who might enjoy that natural setting. That's why I decided to give a very brief overview and spread the word.

Cunningham Falls State Park

Are you looking for a way to unwind, relax, and unplug? This area might the perfect spot. The website confirms this by stating that cell communication may be spotty or non-existent as many carriers do not provide service in this area. 

This Maryland state park is over 6,000 acres that includes a 43 acre man-made lake and the largest cascading water fall in Maryland. 

The park is divided into two sections. 

The William Houck area of the state park is located three miles west of Thurmont, Maryland on winding, tree-lined route 77. Camping, the falls, and the lake are located in this area. I have spent the most time in this section of the park. I have enjoyed hiking near the 78-foot waterfall on several occasions. I was always glad to spend time in the serene setting; surrounded by rocks, boulders, and flowing water in the wooded area. 

The Manor area is located three miles south of Thurmont, off Route 15.  The Scales, Tales Aviary, camping and the historic Catoctin Iron Furnace.

I am not as interested in history as I am in hiking and crossing creeks on foot, using rocks as stepping stones. But I found the Catoctin Iron Furnace a very interesting site to visit. It is hard for me to imagine this furnace being built of stone in the 1770's and began operating in 1776 to manufacture iron for household and industrial goods. 

Over the years, I've known people who use the camping areas in Cunningham Falls as their preferred, local getaway. I personally have not camped there so I am not familiar with the amenities. But I am aware that it is a recommended spot to spent a weekend or vacation. 

Whether you are looking for a place to stayover, for a day hike, or for a more meaningful historic experience, Cunningham Falls State Park may be the spot for you.

I have enjoyed the annual Catoctin Color Fest in Thurmont, Maryland. It is held in October and features a large collection of art, jewelry, crafts and food vendors. It is a super enjoyable festival in a small town setting during a beautiful time of year.

Autumn at Apple Hill - Hallmark Movie Review

In true Hallmark style, Autumn at Apple Hill is a sweet story that takes place in a beautiful setting with an adorable couple that fall in love.  Even though the plot is predictable, the movie is fun to watch.

This movie reminds us how things change in spite of us longing to hold on to the past.  Familiar stores that we grew up shopping in, close down for a variety of reasons or change ownership and are no longer the same even if they carry the same name.  Businesses like restaurants, recreation areas, and locally owned motels are shuttered.  In some cases, our old high school buildings are left vacate as students and classrooms are moved to a new location.  Friends move away and others pass away.  It is the normal cycle of life.  

The Best Exfoliating Enzyme Mask for Brighter, Softer, Smoother Skin

I recently started using the DRMTLGY Pumpkin Enzyme Mask, a facial treatment designed to tackle multiple skincare concerns. As an experienced and discerning skincare enthusiast, I have been quite impressed by this facial mask and thought it deserved its own product review here on Review This Reviews.

What It Does

This 4-in-1 enzyme mask promises to reduce the appearance of large pores, deeply hydrate the skin, cleanse impurities, and provide gentle exfoliation for a smoother, more radiant complexion. It uses a combination of enzymatic and physical exfoliants to brighten dull skin and leave it feeling soft and silky!

Key Ingredients

This well formulated product is packed with jojoba oil beads, enzymes, minerals, and antioxidants from pumpkin to rejuvenate, brighten and refresh the skin. 

Pumpkin

A star ingredient, rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as powerful antioxidants that work to brighten the skin, improve texture, and diminish the appearance of fine lines. Pumpkin enzymes naturally exfoliate dead skin cells, making your skin appear fresher and more even-toned.

Jojoba Oil Beads

Tiny, eco-friendly, time-release exfoliating beads that provide physical exfoliation. They help to gently slough off dead skin cells without damaging or irritating the skin.

Mineral-Rich Kaolin Clay

Kaolin clay helps absorb excess oils and contains important minerals like zinc and copper to help regulate oil production, calm inflammation, and improve the overall balance of the skin.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate) can help soften skin and prevent it from losing moisture.

Peptides

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 are anti-aging peptides that can help repair visible skin damage, improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve rough texture, minimize irritation and restore a firmer feel.

Ceramides

Ceramides help lock in moisture and keep skin soft and supple.

Enzymes

Natural fruit enzymes help to accelerate cell turnover by breaking down dead skin cells, promoting smoother and healthier-looking skin over time.

Colloidal Silver

Colloidal silver has antibacterial, antifungal, and antiseptic properties that may lower levels of acne-causing bacteria that promote inflammation and blemishes.

Who Is It For?

This mask is suitable for normal, dry, oily, or combination skin types. It may not be suitable for very sensitive skin.

My Experience With the DRMTLGY Pumpkin Enzyme Mask

After using this mask once a week for a few months, I’ve noticed significant improvements in both the texture and appearance of my skin.

Here’s what stood out:

Texture & Consistency

The mask has a soft, creamy texture that feels luxurious and comfortable on the skin. Unlike many exfoliating masks that can feel gritty or abrasive, this one is smooth, making the application process enjoyable and relaxing.

Warming Sensation

Upon application, the mask has a self-warming effect, which I found to be incredibly relaxing. The warmth isn’t intense or uncomfortable but provides a soothing sensation that enhances the spa-like experience. This warming effect is said to improve blood flow, which may further enhance the skin’s radiance.

Exfoliation

One of the standout features is how effective the exfoliation is without being too harsh. The pumpkin enzymes and jojoba beads work together to provide both chemical and physical exfoliation, removing dead skin cells and leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after each use. I noticed that my skin looked visibly brighter, and my makeup application was smoother due to the improved texture.

Hydration

Despite being an exfoliating mask, it didn’t strip my skin of moisture. In fact, it left my face feeling comfortably hydrated afterward. I didn’t experience any tightness or dryness, which is often a concern with masks that contain exfoliating ingredients.

Apparent Pore Size Reduction

Although nothing can actually make your pores smaller, there are ways to make them appear smaller. One of this mask's key claims is its ability to reduce the appearance of large pores. After regular use, I have noticed that my pores appeared smaller, especially around my nose and chin. This has been a pleasant surprise, as I often struggle with congestion in those areas.

Scent

For those who love the warm, comforting smell of pumpkin, this mask will be a treat. The scent is subtle but definitely reminiscent of a cozy fall day. It’s not too overpowering, which is great for sensitive noses.

How to Use This Enzyme Mask

1. After cleansing, apply a generous, even layer of the mask to clean, dry skin. You can apply it to just your face or to your face, neck, and décolletage.
2. Massage slowly and gently (don't scrub!), enjoying the warming sensation until it dissipates.
3. Leave the mask on for about 10 minutes.
4. Wet your hands and massage again, slowly and gently.
5. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.

After rinsing and patting dry with a clean face towel, my skin feels smoother, more refined, and better able to absorb the rest of the products in my skincare routine.

How Often to Use

You can use this exfoliating enzyme mask 1–3x/week. Since I also use other exfoliating products a couple of times a week, I use this mask only once a week. 

I recently did an at-home Jessner's chemical peel (the first in what will be a monthly series over 6–8 months. I used this DRMTLGY Pumpkin Enzyme Mask a week after I applied the chemical peeling solution to help remove the last small remnants of the flaking and peeling skin after most was gone. Here's how my 70-year-old skin looked immediately after using the DRMTLGY Pumpkin Enzyme Mask and applying my routine skincare (except my tinted mineral sunscreen, which I applied after taking the photo) on the seventh day after my Jessner's peel. 

Note: The even tone and smooth texture are a function of both the peel and the enzyme mask as well as my consistent commitment to an effective daily skincare routine tailored to my skin goals and concerns.

Face bare? Don't care (when my skin looks good!)

Overall Impression

I’m genuinely impressed with the DRMTLGY Pumpkin Enzyme Mask. It’s a great multi-functional product that truly delivers on its promises. The combination of pumpkin enzymes, jojoba beads, and nourishing minerals makes it a fantastic option for anyone looking to improve skin texture, reduce pore size, and achieve a brighter, smoother complexion. Additionally, the hydrating properties make it suitable for a wide range of skin types, even those prone to dryness or irritation. 

Would I Recommend It?

Absolutely. Whether you’re someone who’s just getting into skincare or a seasoned enthusiast, this mask can be a valuable addition to your routine. It’s gentle enough to use regularly but effective enough to deliver visible results. If you’re looking for a skincare product that leaves your skin feeling smoother, softer, and visibly clearer, the DRMTLGY Pumpkin Enzyme Mask is worth trying.

Have you given the DRMTLGY Pumpkin Enzyme Mask a go yet? Let me know your thoughts or share any tips you have for maximizing its benefits!

The DRMTLOGY Pumpkin Enzyme mask is not only an effective skincare treatment, for me it's also a lovely, relaxing, weekly self-care ritual. It also would make a terrific gift for someone who loves skincare or whose skin is looking a bit dull and could benefit from a bit of a boost.

Gobble Up the Fun with Thanksgiving Inflatables

 When the leaves start falling and the weather begins to cool we all know it's time for Halloween. The decorations come out inside and out. Every year we decorate outside for Halloween. After all the kids have had fun and the candy is all gone the decorations are stored away until next year.

Reviewing our Thanksgiving Turkey

Every year when Halloween is over and the decorations are put away Fran would always say we don't have any Thanksgiving decorations for the yard. She solved that problem last year and bought this 6-foot inflatable for the yard. We now have a giant gobble of joy in our front yard to celebrate Thanksgiving.

From the moment we took it out of the box, the inflatable turkey's sheer size was inspiring and comical. He is an undeniable presence in our yard at 6 feet tall and with a goofy smile. All you have to do is secure him with the included strings and stakes.

Setting him up is as easy as pumpkin pie. Plug him in, and in a matter of seconds, you have a full-blown turkey with holiday cheer. The colors are bright and festive, with rich reds, oranges, and yellows that scream "fall". The material is thick and durable, and it is designed to handle some gusty fall winds and unpredictable autumn weather.

One more feature is he has a built-in LED light making it perfect to light up your yard at night. The soft internal glow makes it impossible to miss and ensures your holiday spirit shines even after dark.

So, should you get this inflatable turkey? Absolutely. If you want your home to be the talk of the neighborhood, if you want to make people smile as they walk by, and if you want to tell the world you're 100% ready for Thanksgiving, this is for you. We had so many people stop to admire him after we put him in the yard.

Reviewing Gifts To Keep Loved Ones Warm In Winter.

With cold weather fast approaching and along with it rising energy costs many people are concerned how to pay for their energy bills to heat their homes and keep warm. Many people may well be thinking of not putting the heating on so high or so much this winter. 

This may especially apply to older people who can feel the cold more, or maybe less able to keep moving around to keep warm. The very old and the very young and those who have conditions or are on medications that  make them feel the cold more will be the most affected in the colder weather. 

So I was thinking how to help people in this situation who perhaps will not accept money to help with bills, but who would consider it normal to receive a winter birthday gift or Christmas gift.

While it is important that the heating is on for some part of the day to keep the home free from damp, it might be thoughtful to give a gift of something that will help to keep them warm and cosy this winter. This thoughtfulness may also extend to yourself.

Depending on your budget, some of these suggestions are affordable, others more considered purchases and perhaps the more expensive ones could be purchased by a family or  friends clubbing together for a present. Or you may like to purchase these as a treat for yourself, as we did. 

So gifts that are lovely, cosy, warm and beautiful like these can be a lovely thoughtful present for any person to help them keep warmer and more relaxed in the colder months of the year. 

 

Heated Throw

The first gift idea and one that we have found very useful is a heated throw. These are blankets or throws that you put on over yourself to keep warm and have a timer facility so you can choose the temperature the throw warms up to and the length of time you have it on. 

The best ones have a cut off function once the time is reached so I consider this a vital function, especially for elderly people or anyone just busy, so it cannot over heat or be left on all night. 

We have a couple of these throws for use in the living room when watching TV and for one to go over the bed which we put on an hour before bed to warm up the bed and the room. We find that these do heat us up very well and also put some heat into the room which is useful in winter.

One is a Faux Fur heated blanket and one is a Sherpa Fleece Blue heated blanket. They are deliciously cosy! We have used the heating far less since we got these blankets and so saved on our heating bills, while still keeping nice and warm.                    

Read more about my personal experience of using these in my article Reviewing Benefits And Considerations Of Heated Throws

Warm Wearable Hooded Fleece Blankets.

We have two each of these warm wearable hooded fleece blankets and we really appreciate them in the autumn and winter. Wearing them can certainly delay us needing to put the heating on. 

They are great during the day when at home as you can move around freely wearing them, yet you are warm and certainly cosy! However you still feel Ok answering the door to people which I would not be Ok with if I was in a dressing gown! In the evening they are just wonderful and snuggly and so warm.

We especially like to wear them first thing in the morning when getting breakfast and once we settle down for the evening. I also like to wear mine when doing computer work and we both wear them watching TV or playing games in the evenings.

Read More about how we enjoy wearing these in my article Reviewing Warm Wearable Oversized Hooded Blankets 

Warm Bedding 

In the autumn we start switching out our bedding to warmer fleece and blankets to go with our duvets. It makes more of a difference than you might think and is an easy switch.

 As long as you know the persons bed size, a warm bedding set would be a lovely thoughtful gift. I love this Microsoft Sheet Set with a flat sheet, fitted sheet and two pillowcases for its warm, cosy and beautiful look on the bed. This set is available in a wide choice of beautiful colours to suit any person and any bedroom decor. It has deep pocket fitting on the fitted sheet and is machine washable on cold, tumble dry low so easy care

Even if you are not sure of the bed size, then a comforter to go over the bed would be a great gift and less dependant on size especially if you size up so you can be sure it covers the bed. 

My friend and contributor Barbara wrote this useful article about her personal experience of owning this Warm Sherpas Comforter Set.

Warm Cosy Bed Socks

I don't know about you but if my feet are cold I am cold. So it is vital to keep feet warm and cosy. There are many choices of lovely bed socks for everyone in different colours . So if you know the persons shoe size a special cosy pair of socks can be a thoughtful gift.  

I especially like these Non Skid Gripper Fleece Socks as in addition to being warm and cosy, they have grippers on the soles so are more non slip that most socks and so safer if you forget to put on slippers when you first get out of bed or go to get a drink in the night.

My friend and contributor Olivia writes in her review about how bed socks and the subsequent warm feet can equal a happy marriage ! How Bedsocks Can Equal A Happy Marriage

Shoulder Wrap Heating Pad

This is a great gift idea especially if you know the person has any shoulder issues or feels the cold around their shoulders. 

I know if my shoulders are cold I find it hard to warm up. I carry any tension in my shoulders and a warm wrap does help to relax the muscles. A definite benefit is that you do not need to hold this wrap against your neck, it stays put there by itself! 

 My friend and contributor Sylvestermouse reviews her personal experience in her article about the Sunbeam Shoulder Wrap Heating Pad.

So a few well chosen gift ideas that we here have found lovely and beneficial can really be a beautiful and warm, lovely present for a loved one who may feel the cold this winter.

 Whether it is a Fall/Autumn Birthday present or a Christmas gift or just because you love them, any of these items will help towards keeping you and your loved ones warm and comfortable this winter.
