MBE partnered with Wicked Cool Toys for this review and giveaway
Glam sparkles are trending everywhere this holiday season in clothes, shoes, and accessories for us grown-up girls. Bling is definitely a thing right now and one that women are really excited about. So why should the glitz be limited to what we're wearing? And why should we keep the fun to ourselves, when we can share all that glittering wonderfulness with young ladies ages 6 and up?
New, Fun Glam Styling Tool
Introducing the new Blinger Diamond Collection, from Wicked Cool Toys, which was a finalist at The Toy Association's 2020 Toy of the Year (TOTY) Awards. It's a crafting and toy gift in one that girly girls will love to receive this holiday season and throughout the year. It is also a serious glam styling tool that us moms will want to borrow from our daughters so we can get in on the bedazzling fun since Blinger can me used to add sparkle in so many ways.
From the moment I first set eyes on Blinger at Sweet Suite, an annual invitation only New York exhibition for family lifestyle influencers, I was enchanted with this easy-to-use bling styling tool kit. What fun it was to see young girls react with glee as their hairstyles were glammed up at Wicked Cools Toys booth at this conference.
Lucky for me, I also got to try it, having my own tresses blinged for a night out to see the longest running musical on Broadway, Phantom of the Opera. This is a dream come true for fashionistas -- no matter what your age -- for those of us who go for glittery jewel-like glamor accents and enjoy creating personalized looks that are uniquely our own.
The Blinger Diamond Collection comes beautifully boxed in a sparkling silver box ready for wrapping and giving with your choice of either a hot pink or baby blue bling applicator and 75 mini faux crystal gems in round, heart and star shapes.
Since these little gems stick to most surfaces and work with all hair types, gals can use this to glam up your hair, cell phones, sunnies, kicks, hats, handbags, accessories, greeting cards, notebooks, and lots more. Kids can even become mini hair stylists and bling a friend's or doll's hair. Bling to your heart's content, even add a special touch to your manicure as I did. Infusing sparkle into everyday life is truly limited only by the creativity of Blinger's user.
How Blinger Works
Blinger is simple and safe to use, but due to small pieces it should only be used by ages 6 and up. The adhesive gems are easy to apply as well as to comb out or peel off, too. Just open the Blinger applicator and line up one of the interchangeable bejeweled plastic discs inside the carousel. Then snap closed and place it over the target surface, start blinging either with the applicator closed or opened using it like you would use a stapler on a bulletin board. Then push the button with your thumb to apply each gem individually wherever you'd like.
