UProtective Knee Support


I received the UProtective Knee Brace Support for free in exchange for a social deal. It comes in black and is a very soft material on both sides. There are 3 straps that you wrap around to velcro the brace together. It says it is antibacterial and a breathable material. It was in the 80s today though and I felt like my leg was sweating for the short amount of time I used it. I got it to give me more support for exercising than the one strip piece ones I have for walking. There is a ring that the knee sits in, so that it doesn't dislocate and it is supposed to help with pain. My knee is currently not in pain though, so I can't comment on that. It took me a little bit to get adjusted correctly. I laid my leg flat to get it on right. It says it is one size fits all. There is quite a bit more space in it for my little leg, but adjusts fine. There are two small holes in the back area. Not sure what they are. Maybe for air circulation? So overall I think it is soft, comfortable, and fits well.

ItBandz Knee Support


I received the itbandz knee support band for free in exchange for an honest review. It is black with the it symbol in pink. Mine came in a youth/women's small, which is for 9"-12" around the leg right below the knee. The front piece is made out of a flexible pad that goes right under the knee. Comparing it to my other ones, I could go for a little more soft material in that area because I have to push down on it in order for it to wrap around my knee. Doesn't naturally wrap around my leg, so it could use more flexibility. There is a strap that goes around the back of the leg and fits through the hole and then wraps around again to fasten using Velcro. The Velcro works fine. The back strap seems thin to me and is uncomfortable on my leg when I fit it snugly like instructions say. Maybe I have it on wrong? It makes sense that it is thin, but it just feels like it is pressing into my leg and I don't like that feeling. It is soft, but could be softer. I do have sensitive skin, so may just be me. Many of the reviews I looked at, the people said they liked it. This is to wear if you have pain in knee like patellar tendonitis. The pressure from the strap helps with the pain.

5d Diamond Painting Set


I received the 5D Diamond Painting for free in exchange for a social deal. This is a very interesting do it yourself project. I had never seen anything like it before. You do need to have a lot of patience because it will take a very long time, especially if you have kiddos needing attention. I would also recommend making it up on a table, so you aren't bent over and make sure you have good lighting. There are thousands of little pieces, so it should be kept away from small children too. So it comes with a painting printed on canvas. On the side of the canvas and the instruction paper, there is a chart that gives you all the labeling on where to place each colored diamond. For example, the corner I have pulled down in the picture, I had to start by looking for the baggie that is labeled 04/161 and pour them into the tray. Gently shake the tray, so the diamonds turn to the correct side. Then take pink pen and push it into wax. This should give you enough wax inside it to stick to quite a few diamonds. Then stick the pen with diamond on one of the correct circles. They are very very tiny, so you will have to be very precise. I am a very detailed oriented person, so I like the challenge of things like this. There are also tweezers to help get diamonds in the right spot too. When you want to stop, just place the adhesive paper back down over it and roll everything back up to store. I think I am going to store the diamonds in baby food boxes if I want to vary which color I am using. They have other paintings too you can do. I would really like to do the Van Gogh one. Are you ready to start? Who will beat me?
