My Thoughts on Neutrogena Cosmetics Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Stick - I have never used Neutrogena makeup before. I must say that I was very excited to give this a try as I have been trying to update my cosmetic bag recently. I am so far behind the times when it comes to make up and I really need a revamp. One of the cosmetic's that arrived was Neutrogena's MoistureSmooth Color Stick. As soon as I seen it I fell in love with the color. It was a beautiful light pink shade. When I opened it I fell in love even more as the scent is heavenly. It was also really light when I applied it to my lips and just gave my lips a shimmer and shine that was not there before. Neutrogena Crease Proof Eye Shadows- I have never used wet eye shadow before and really did not know what to expect. I did like the way it slid onto my eyes and the amount of color that was in the Eye Shadow. They really are beautiful shades of shadow. The downfall that I found was I felt like the lids of my eyes … [Read more...]

Gola Shoes Review and Giveaway! Ends 3/19/13!
My Thoughts on Gola Shoes As most of you know I have been going to the gym regularly. I am in desperate need of losing weight and I know that a gym membership and a trainer is the exact motivation that I need. When I made the choice to hit the gym I knew I was going to need some good work out clothes. This included a great pair of comfortable shoes. Unfortunately that is not what I purchased. I mean they were ok but after about two months of daily workouts I could feel my right foot sliding around sideways in my shoe. That is not really a feeling you want to have when you are jogging along on a treadmill. I knew after about two days of putting up with my terrible shoes that it was time to invest in some quality. That is when I came across Gola. To be honest I had never heard of them before but after a in depth investigation of their website I knew these were the shoes I needed for my daily workouts. Gola has lots of shoes and styles available for purchase but my favorite … [Read more...]

Mia Mariu Review!
Mia Mariu Review! My thoughts on Mia Mariu products – Let me begin by stating the fact that I just simply do not own that much make up in my house. It’s not that I don’t like the stuff or find it time consuming, it’s just that I don’t seem to ever just purchase makeup for myself, which I want to work on that! I loved getting some Mia Mariu products to try out because it gave me a chance to go out of my box and try some new things! I have heard of Mia Mariu products and one the things I love the most about them is that they stand behind being all natural! They add vitamins and antioxidants to them such as green tea! To me this is a great reason to stick with this company weather you are vegan or just wanting to put natural ingredients on your skin, Mia Mariu is now a brand I will have in my house! I was able to try out three great products, one amazing hydrating gloss in Tango, and two beautiful shimmering Loose Mineral Shadow Liners. One was Rosa and one Mora in color … [Read more...]
CAMP Board Game Review!
My Thoughts on CAMP Board Game I come from an outdoorsy family and we love to get together and play board games! The CAMP Board Game is the perfect game to keep the outdoors in our life throughout the winter months when we don't get to the mountains as often as we would like. In the CAMP Board Game you can choose 1 of 4 levels of questions to ask each person depending on their knowledge. This is a game that really is perfect for the whole family because no matter your age you can be challenged to learn more new and interesting facts. For example my 7 year old daughter might get a question like ' What is the color of a male cardinal' and have multiple choice answers to choose from. That question might be a little easy for me or my husband so on the same card we might get a higher level question asked to us like 'How many states have the cardinal as the state bird?' Now that might be a little more challenging! I love that the game is not only fun for the whole family but also that … [Read more...]
Vicks Behind Ear Thermometer Review!
My Thoughts on Vicks Behind Ear Thermometer It's that time of year again. Cold and Flu season! It is such a horrible feeling to see your little ones sick. It breaks my heart to see my daughter so down and the last thing I ever want to do is wake her up once she is finally sleeping. That is why I think it is important to use a thermometer that she won't even notice. The Vicks Behind Ear Thermometer is easy to us and read. The screen will light up green behind the temperature to let you know that their body temperature is okay and you have nothing to worry about. If there is a fever then the light behind the temperature will change to yellow for a mild fever and red for a high fever. This will help you to take the guessing game out of "How high should I let a fever get before I get concerned." Another feature about the Vicks Behind Ear Thermometer that I love is how quickly I can take a second temperature after the first. With many thermometers you have to wait for them to cool … [Read more...]
Try Progressive Snapshot and save money! – Review!
My Thoughts on Snapshot from Progressive You might have seen the commercials for Progressive's Snapshot. Some of you might have tried it and some of you might be wondering if it really works or is worth it. I can tell you that it is great and you really can save! Recently I was able to give Progressive's Snapshot a try. It arrived in the mail within a few days after signing up. It was this little grey thing that inserted quickly and easily under my steering wheel in my car. As I did the 30 Day Snapshot challenge I was able to log onto a Progressive Snapshot website and see my results. I was able to read about my driving and get tips on how to save more! Every time I started my car I would hear the snapshot beep as it turned on. It would pay attention to my driving (silently) and later transmit the data on it's own to Progressive. It really was that easy. I did not have to worry or think about it. I can attest that Snapshot from Progressive really can save you money … [Read more...]

Epic Mickey 2 The Power of Two Review!
My Thoughts on Epic Mickey 2 The Power of Two I have said this before and I will say it again....Epic Mickey is the most fun game EVER! I was SO excited when I heard that Epic Mickey was going to make a 2nd game! The first time I turned on Epic Mickey I was surprised at the difficulty and graphics of this game. I usually don't like to play games that go along with cartoons or movies since they seem to be so simple and easy. But that is NOT the case with these awesome Epic Mickey games! In Epic Mickey 2 takes place in Wasteland just like the first one does. You will have fun using your paint and thinner to help save your beloved land. You will also get to interact with Disney Characters from the early years of Disney!

Pine Bros. Softish Throat Drops Review!
Pine Bros. Softish Throat Drops Review! My thoughts on Pine Bros. softish throat drops – Ok now first off, when I read the label, the descriptive word “softish” just made me giggle. A “softish” throat drop?! I actually was too excited to try these to wait for a sore throat. I opened them up and I took a picture of them next to a dime so you could see their relative size. But I put one in my mouth and oh my goodness, they ARE a “softish” throat drop! Right away I could tell these are going to be in my cabinet permanently just in case anyone in the family needs them. It’s good to have them on hand just in case in the middle of the night someone ends up having a sore throat. My daughter gets a dry throat frequently and wakes up with just a little irritation because she sleeps with her mouth open and I know I need to whip out the humidifier, especially since winter is upon us, but she popped one of the Pine Bros. Softish Throat Drops and it helped to sooth her little throat. Her … [Read more...]

Smile Brilliant! Review!
Smile Brilliant! Review! My thoughts on Smile Brilliant! Teeth whitening system – If you are looking for a very affordable way to whiten your teeth, this product is it! There is nothing better than having a pearly white smile! I am blessed to have white teeth and I was so very excited to use this extremely easy teeth whitening on my husband! He was a trooper for sure and he also was surprised at how easy it was to do a session! It doesn’t take long to get the system set up at all. There is the LED accelerator light, a flexible (and very comfortable might I add) teeth tray, and the gel pen. In just a few easy steps you are on your way to a brighter smile in the comfort of your own home and on your own time as well! We first put the gel on his teeth with the brush gel pen, and then added the tray for him to bite down on, he then put the LED accelerator light over the tray and then all he had to do was just sit down, play his video games and wait. One of the rare times I actually … [Read more...]
