Q-Tips Precision Tips Review

I was recently contacted to do a review for new Q-Tips Precision Tips, and I was happy to agree when I thought about all the great uses for the new pointy swabs around our house. 

When I got my package, I immediately brought it upstairs to tackle something that had been irritating me. 

Do you see that purple paint howing in the corner?  I admit I was lazy and didn't remove all the corner plates before I painted (or paint the inside portion of the dresser) because I'm pregnant and....LAZY. 

The precision tip was the perfect size to get right up next to the brass plates without removing them because, again....LAZY. 

Look at me go with my new disposable tool!

All I wanted was to cover the purple enough that you couldn't see it with the drawers closed.  Because we can't have Vikings colors up in Packer country, you know what I'm saying?

Mission accomplished, thanks to these handy little Q-Tips!

I can't wait to use these things for dusting in the little crevices of our blinds, cabinet trim, and how about my camera equipment??  Ok, to say that I can't wait to dust is not entirely correct, but these Q-Tips will certainly make the job easier.  And there are some other tips on the Q-Tips facebook page, so go check it out.

I was provided with Q-tips® Precision Tips™ cotton swabs, a $25 American Express gift card and information about the product by Rocket XL. All opinions are 100% my own.

Scott's Liquid Gold is great

Recently, I was contacted by a representative of Scott's Liquid Gold to review their products.  I was more than happy to oblige, so I chose two items and squealed when they arrived!  First up was their wood wash:

This product is formulated to clean wood surfaces, from furniture to floors.  I gave it a quick little test drive on our stairs today.  Our stairs are almost always messy, whether from dust, cat hair, or dirt from our shoes. 

It's rather hard to capture, but trust me, they are dirty!  A couple sprays on each tread are all I used.

I was immediately struck with the scent.  It's delicious, like a fresh perfume....definitely not a typical 'cleaner' smell!  I dabbed some behind my ears, because you can never be too clean behind your ears.  And it smells that good.  And....here is a fabulous shot of me wiping up the cleaner with a towel!

Wooooo!  Amazing!  It cleaned my stairs!  Since it does, in fact, clean well...I think I love it.

Normally we use Bona cleaner on our floors and stairs, but I think we may have to pick this product up occasionally.  Pluses: It's cheaper than my Chanel the smell is good, the spray bottle is much nicer (the Bona one is really weird - you never get a full spray) and it seems to do a great job cleaning the wood.   

Looks good to me!  Next week I will review the other product I received, Mold Control.  

I know what you're thinking, "Sara cannot have mold in her house!"  Well, I probably do.  Somewhere around this horrible pit general area.    

ps - the laundry area doesn't look like this anymore, but this photo from our first walk-through is much more dramatic and moldy-looking.  And I'm still about two years away from an 'after' post.  So there. 

pps - under those rubber mats was wet latex paint in every color of the rainbow.  Can I get a 'BOOZIE' shout-out up in here?  (Kim already did hers)
