Global Green USA Green School Makeover Competition Presented by Pureology

Sat, 30 Mar 2013 02:06:00 -0400

I just entered this competition and I think some of you should too.. its really important we do all we can!

Every child deserves a learning environment that’s safe, comfortable and free of harmful toxins. Unfortunately, many schools across the country lack the funds to carry out much-needed repairs and renovations—subjecting children to outdated facilities with improper ventilation, poor lighting and inefficient energy usage. Global Green USA is working to address this situation and ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn in a healthy, green school.

You can help by nominating a school in your area for a Green School Makeover You should enter to make learning better for your children too: http://bit.ly/VzWAQh

DINO LINGO

Wed, 05 Dec 2012 00:32:00 -0500

Tonight my children and I got to watch a special “Language learning program for kids” video clip complimentary through Influenster. We chose to watch the German language featured clip,because part of our actual heritage is German,and mommy already knows a tiny bit! It was a great way to introduce them to the Dino Lingo series… its animations help capture the attention of the younger ones,but it isnt over the top,so its not distracting,and its clever enough for an adult to want to watch and learn along with the children. We are excited to see more of this series!

"Boots No7 Beautiful Skin"

Sun, 18 Nov 2012 16:53:01 -0500

One of the last products I got to test out for free thanks to Influenster.coms Fall Beauty Blogger 2012 Vox Box,but certainly not the least! This pleasantly scented night cream left my skin feeling soft and hydrated. I will most certainly be purchasing more of this product and more from this brand in the future! The suggested retail of this heavenly moisturizer is just under 14 bucks and can be founded at your local target or on http://www.shopbootsusa.com/. I would def. recommend this product to anyone and everyone,you get a department store quality moisturizer for a fraction of the cost!

"Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin"

Sun, 18 Nov 2012 16:42:26 -0500

Working my way through the free products I received from Influenster.coms Fall Beauty Blogger Vox Box 2012 I came across another fun product I got to test out…The Goody Simple Styles Pin! A relatively easy to use product that helps one achieve super cute updo styles without booking an appointment at the salon! It has been said that the spin pin does the work of 20 individual bobby pins! All a girl has to is twirl her hair up and spin the spin pins in for the ultimate look! Be in a knot on top,a messy bun,or a bun on either side of the head! This gadget can do it all!

Sun, 18 Nov 2012 15:58:00 -0500

Love this handy dandy little product! I got to try out NYCs Individual Eyes Custom Compact for free all thanks to Influenster.coms Fall Beauty Bloggers 2012 Vox Box program! Its an all in one compact with everything you need to complete the dramatic eye look or just have a simple shimmery look! The eyeshadow base/and shimmer is even included as well as the brush! For 4.99(suggested retail price)you cant go wrong! My only wish is that the beautiful pigments would last longer on my lids,because even with the shadow base,it doesnt last all day like I need it to! That being said I would still like to try this product out in other colors! In the meantime please check out http://newyorkcolor.com/ and see what other products they have to offer.

Bath & Body Works Fall Mini Candle Review by ME!

Sun, 18 Nov 2012 15:00:00 -0500

Its no big secret or suprise that I love Bath & Body Works products!! Recently I was selected by Influenster.com for the Fall Beauty Blogger Vox Box to review one of their Fall Mini Candles in the scent Black Pepper Bergamont. (for free) While the scent is not one of my particular favorites…I do enjoy the long lasting,and high quality scents BBW Mini Candles provide! I always have more than my fair share of BBW candles around my house for this very reason! There are so many scents to choose from in store and online,they really do have something for everyone. They even have a scent for every season! Every holiday too! What Im obviously trying to say here is that..I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BATH AND BODY WORKS MINI CANDLES! Actually I recommend them in every size they make! Plus they make awesome presents…You cant go wrong! www.bathandbodyworks.com

CLEAR SCALP & HAIR BEAUTY THERAPY™

Wed, 25 Jul 2012 21:37:34 -0400

(I received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster)

I am usually really skeptical about using any other brands of shampoo than my current brand I use because of my dyed hair,it’s red so it can fade pretty fast If I am not careful! However I totally love that Clear Shampoo is a cream based shampoo! Fantastic! Smells good but does not feel like it’s stripped my hair of anything while I’m washing it! When paired with the Clear Conditioner my hair feels amazing,looks amazing and it’s good to go with no extra product neccessary! LOVE it! Would for sure purchase this product after the samples are gone! I can FINALLY replace my 35 shampoo! Whoohoo! Thank you Clear!

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration

Wed, 25 Jul 2012 21:26:40 -0400

(I received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster) I tested out Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration in spf 30…and I have just got to say I really enjoy the moisture ribbons and so do my boys! A lot of the SPF’s I’ve used before feeling drying but not this one! Not a big fan of the scent I was hoping it would be a little more tropical but it’s not over powering and the protection is great for my tattoos and little ones! Even in the pool! Perfect poolside companion!

But it feels like you just might explode inside
You’ve been pacing around and waiting
For some moment that might never arrive at all
What you don’t have, you don’t need it anymore
What you don’t have, you don’t need it anymore

But you’re never gonna find it
When your knees got so weak
And it’s right here in case you need it
