Best Travel Insurance around!

Image
Hello Again! So time for a product review and plug! I recently went on a trip to the US and Canada. As a lot of you may already know I am very blind and wear reading glasses 100% of the time (well apart from when I am sleeping!!) When I was out having a good time with some friends in San Francisco I happened to lose my reading glasses. I called my mum to get my prescription from my optometrist, but it was going to be too expensive in the US to get my frames replaced and also it would take a longer duration than what I would be in any one city when I was away, so I just bought a crappy pair of magnifying glasses from Walgreens to wear whilst I was away. They worked for me, I could hardly see but it was enough to get by with. Upon my return in to Australia, I looked at my travel insurance, which was through Cover-more and low and behold, my glasses were covered under my policy, so I put in a claim online with all of the receipts and documents I needed attached to my claim and with...

Black Chicken AXILLA Deodorant Paste review

Image
Hi Guys! So I just want to share with you my review on Black Chicken's AXILLA Deodorant paste. This stuff is amazing! I used to have a really bad underarm odor issue and even my mum would comment on it! She called my unfortunate smell bad underarmis!! haha I had used so many different products over the years including the clinical protection by a few different companies and all promised to eliminate odor and keep it under control for 24-48 hours.
