ChapStick Classic Cherry Lip Balm
Chapstick is a brand I've been using for years. Without a doubt this has never failed me and never too expensive. It works great and is at any store you go to. It helps with cracked and dry lips and I love the Cherry flavored Chapstick best.

I'm a lip balm fan-a-tic. I love trying new ones and adding them to my collection. So when I first saw this at Walmart I thought it looked pretty neat. It wasn't until I bought this on Wells.ca that I actually tried it. First off the look is super cute. Secondly this glides on smoothly and actually helps keep your lips smooth and moistened. I've been using this every day for the last month and have no complaints. It's cute, nifty, affordable and it does what it's suppose to do. -

This brand has been around forever and has come through for me for years. I used this almost every day while in high school and still use it to this day. It's affordable and works great, especially on chapped and sore lips, when you apply it on your lips you just get that feeling like it's doing what it's suppose to, which is keep your lips moistened. I absolutely will and have recommended this to my friends and family members. -

A couple of weeks ago my husband and I got the chance to review Crest’s 3D whitestrips dental whitening kit. The first thing we noticed, the adhesive has improved quite a bit from when we tried whitening strips a few years back - no slipping and sliding. It sticks nicely to your teeth. After the very first application, you certainly will notice a dramatic difference! I believe it’s well worth the money. We did notice some mild sensitivity for days after using this product, and after a Google search of other reviews of the same product, I’ve discovered this is the most common comment. Aside from that one issue (even though we’re used to sacrificing a little pain for beauty) you have a truly excellent product that produces dramatically whiter teeth in one week!
I received the Crest 3D White Whitestrips from Chick Advisor, thanks ladies!

I'm a huge fan of Hard Candy Cosmetics and their products. I’ve purchased some of the products before in the past and will continue to because they continue to be one of my favorites and their products just keep getting better and better. I had the opportunity to try three of their products, all of which I hadn't tried before. They were all very natural looking, which I thought was great because I thought it went well for the season.
The Lashaholic Mascara was the first out of the three products that I tried. Who doesn't want thick long lashes? This mascara did the trick, it’s all in the wand I think so this one worked great for me. I've been through so many brands to find that right one and this one definitely made my top list.
Next I tried their Hide and Glow Cheek Tint. I don't wear much blush or tinting products as I always find them heavy on my skin, but I actually found this to be very light and soft and it just gave me that sun glow which I think would be perfect to wear in the Summer.
The last product I had the chance to review was, That's How We Roll Shimmer Powder for your eyes. I loved that it was two in one and I found this also to be a very soft color, which was easy to put on and take off.
You can’t go wrong with Hard Candy Cosmetics. I like that their makeup isn’t just for young teen girls, it’s pretty much for every girl, woman out there. If you check out their other items, you’ll notice the cool vibrant colors of their eye shadows, nail polish, etc. What’s cool is that all their products can be found at your local Wal-Mart. One of my favorite things I love about Hard Candy is that all of their products are $10 or less, which is perfect for any girl on a budget.

Ta-Ta-Toos are temporary tattoos for women's breasts. Now, I know what you're thinking, temporary tattoos for adults?!?! But seriously these things are tons of fun and not just in a sexual way, although this would be great for you and your spouse behind closed doors. You can wear these at a Halloween party, put them on at a bacherlorette party, girls night out on the town and so much more.
Yes they are temporary as far as the tattoos go, but the memories will last forever. This is stated on their website and I for one think it's 100% true.
I had the pleasure of reviewing a few different Ta Ta Toos, I got to review the Happy Anniversary, Missed You, 100% Natural and Kiss Me and let me tell you they were so much fun. My husband went out of town a couple of weeks ago and when he came home I used the Missed You tattoo and he laughed. We had a great time that evening.
What I like most is that each package comes with not one, but two tattoos. Each extra tattoo is the Lucky You tattoo. I plan on sharing those ones with the rest of the bloggers here on Just Us Girls on our next girls night out/in.
Another great thing about these temporary tattoos is that they can last up to seven days, but if you don't want them on that long they can easily be removed. Mine came off easily with lukewarm water and a towel. They're also non-toxic and hypoallergenic, which is pretty awesome.
For something new and different that's fun, flirty and playful I'd say give these bad boys a try, I think the next one I want to get is their Biker Babe for when I go on a ride with my husband on his motorcycle!

I rarely buy soda pop in my household unless I'm having a family get together, a party or unless it's on sale at the store and I can stock up for future occasions. And we rarely give our kids pop, so when I got the opportunity to try some of Zevia's soda, I was excited. I loved that the soda contain all natural products and that each flavor was sugar free. I wanted to try this to see if I could taste or notice a difference from regular pop and I was also excited have my kids try it because they rarely drink it and my son doesn't really care for it.
Zevia has zero calories, contains purified water and is sweetened with Stevia. The stevia leaf contains a number of very similar compounds or steviol glycosides that are all sweet. The best tasting of this is rebaudioside A which is used in powder or liquid form to heighten sweetening intensity and improve taste, so this is what's replaced instead of adding sugar in the other soda pops.
They have a total of 15 different flavors and we were lucky to get to try most of them. We were sent three of the following flavors; Cola, Ginger Root Beer, Lemon Lime Twist, Black Cherry, Ginger Ale, Orange, Grape and Cream Soda. I have to say I was very impressed with Zevia.
I found that although the taste isn't like regular pop, the taste of each and every one of these was still very much enjoyable and something I would love to have again. I think my favorite flavor was the Black Cherry. We don't really have anything like that here in my local town. The Cream Soda would have to be my second choice, it was a delight. To my surprise my kids loved Zevia, even my son did and he rarely cares for it. They loved it even more when we tried the Ginger Rootbeer and made a Rootbeer Float with it. I think we all enjoyed that.
For this having zero calories, I can see grabbing this if they were here in my local grocery store, it's worth it and healthier compared to your regular sugary pop.

This has definitely become one of my favorite vodka's to drink. It's smooth and doesn't burn and it's great to mix with when you're making a cocktail or if you wanted to create a birthday shot with pudding. I found a recipe for a Strawberry Shortcake Martini that I'll post in the forums soon, but it literally tasted like a strawberry shortcake in my mouth.
I absolutely love the design on the bottle and I'm a huge fan of Three Olives. Their different flavors of vodka has really impressed me and makes it so much more fun to create drinks for a girls night in or out! Definitely worth a try if you haven't had it yet.

Let me just say this beer is refreshing, delicious and worth giving a try. As I said before I'm not much of a beer person. I mean I have a beer every now and then, especially on hot days when I'm outside working on our backyard and maybe if I'm at a BBQ, but usually most beers make me feel bloated. I can honestly say that the sublime beer didn't make me feel that way.
The taste of the delicious beer with the hint of lemon and lime, which was just right, not too overpowering and not to weak where you can't tell that it's there, was really good. One of the best parts of this was knowing that the beer was only 67 calories, which is about half the calories of a glass of wine or a single mixed drink and one-third fewer calories than light beer. So I was able to enjoy the beer and not feel guilty about it.
