Vellostar Chalk Marker


I was recently given a 10-pack of chalk markers to review by Vellostar. The chalk markers can be used on a variety of surfaces, with a focus on glass and windows, in addition to sheet metal and other smooth surfaces. In the spirit of the new year, I decided to put it on my car for a long road trip.  The chalk held up to the high winds, fog without an issue.

It was easy to apply and came out pretty nicely. When I made a mistake, it was very easy to clean up. The colors are very vibrant.

One of the things I like about this particular package of markers over other brands is that it includes replacement tips for the markers for when they wear out, they can just be quickly replaced without the need for a whole new package.  The pens are spring loaded so you have to shake and push against the surface in order to get the ink to come out.  It is really easy to use, but it is a mess to get off of your hands and clothing, so this is definitely not a kid's toy.

These markers can be purchased here:

I received these markers for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Travel Pillow

Tonight I am reviewing a #travel_pillow or #neck_pillow by PGH Campaign.  (PGH stands for Pete Gear Hub)  It is designed to go around the neck and to help keep your neck straight while you snooze on a plane, train or automobile.

It has a soft foam stuffing, that compresses really easily and just feels so nice.  It is covered with a blue cloth that is absolutely prefect.  It is soft to the touch and feels super comfortable.

The front has this cord/strap you can snap together and tighten so the neck pillow is tighter around the neck for a more firm fit.

My only complaint is that it doesn't really get tight at all and the pillow compresses too much for my head, failing to keep it upright at all.  I think if the pillow was a bit taller, by about 1/2 to 1 inch and made a teeny bit thicker, it would be perfect.

The color looks good,  The dark blue is relatively neutral and doesn't clash with the orange I had on at the time of the review too badly.

You can purchase this item here on Amazon:
