I was using Blistex Smoothie for about a week now and noticed it wasn't helping to keep my lips moisturized or preventing them from chapping. In fact the condition of my lips seemed to be getting worse instead of better. I switched over to using Vaseline Rosy lips and I noticed results almost immediately. They were once again transformed into soft, smooth lips.

It comes in a little tin and when you open it up it looks like a thick, pink colored gloss. When you apply it, it doesn't feel too thick. You could wear it under your lipstick or overtop to give you color a light sheen. Although other reviewers say that it gives the lips a tinge of color I really never noticed a difference. The first thing you will notice when you open the tin is the lovely scent of roses. I really like Vaseline Rosy lips and definitely looking forward to trying the other scents available in this line.    -

I have never heard of the brand W7 until I accidentally ran across it while shopping for beauty products online. I read reviews, watched you tubers and beauty bloggers rave about the W7 eyeshadow and for the price I figured why not try it for myself. I was extremely pleased to purchase two eyeshadow pallets for 15.31$ plus free shipping. For that price even if I wasn't too crazy about them I wouldn't be that heartbroken.

As soon as I got the pallets Lightly Toasted Natural Nudes & Colour Me Nude Natural Nudes I was excited to try them. To my surprise I absolutely loved the colors. There's 12 colors in each pallet so I received 24 shades in total. Most of the colors in both pallets are very similar but I don't mind because I love all four colors I have tried so far. Although the eyeshadow itself is powdered eyeshadow it goes on looking more like a cream when it's applied to my eyelids. I have only tried the beige and brown colors so far and not the Gray's but for the price I am impressed. The colors may not apply as easy as a higher end brand but they are still easy to work with. You just need to blend them a little more. It does come with a two sided brush for applying and blending. I prefer to use my own brushes and applicator's as the ones that come included are very basic.

Both pallets come in a hinged, tin case that opens and closes easily and snap shuts securely which is great for me cause I definitely need something durable. The brand itself is from England and their products are not animal tested. This is definitely not a high end eyeshadow but for the price I am in love and want to try more of their products. The colors are only lightly pigmented so it may not be what everyone likes but another good thing is I didn't have any fallout which I sometimes tend to have with some other brands and I did not use a primer and it still stayed on all day. Most of the colors are shimmer but they throw in a couple of matte colors. In my opinion if your looking for an inexpensive, neutral pallet that can take you from daytime look to nighttime look than you should consider the W7 eyeshadow pallets.    -

I love how thick, creamy and rich this feels on my skin. It leaves it feeling soft, smooth and well moisturizedwithout feeling greasy. The only thing I don't like about this cream is that it is way too perfume scented. The scent lseems to linger on the skin long after applying. Although this may not be a bad thing I don't enjoy the scent of this cream therefore I was hoping the scent would dissipate somewhat. I think the scent of this cream would be better suited for an older woman but I personally didn't like it for myself. It's unfortunate cause the texture and quality of this cream is good.    -

My family has tried the three cheese, beef straganoff, cheeseburger and macaroni and the lasagna. Out of those four that we have tried we have only ever bothered to repurchase the lasagna. I personally would not eat these on a regular basis since they are high in sodium but as an occasional fast meal they are great. All you need to do is fry up some hamburger and follow the directions on the box and you have got yourself a meal in about 15 minutes tops. I like to add in some frozen peas and mushrokms as well just to say we are still getting some vegetables and maybe to feel a little less guilty about serving my family a less than healthy meal. We probably only eat Hamburger Helper a few times a year but considering you can usually get them for 2$ a box they are convenient to have around when you are pressed for time or just don't feel like cooking. We would eat this more often if they would come out with a healthier option.    -

Growing up we always had a few jars of Kraft Peanut Butter in the house. It's a well trusted brand that's been around for a long time. It's smooth and creamy making it easy to spread and it's a great source of protein. I occassionall enjoy a peanut butter and banana sandwich. I also love baking with Kraft Peanut Butter. In fact there's a three ingredient peanut butter cookie recipe on the back of the jar that's easy to make if you're low on baking ingredients by craving something sweet. The only peanut butter I have ever tasted that's better than Kraft is Planters Peanut Butter and that's only because it has a more fresher, nuttier taste. Although Planters is my number one choice it is slightly more pricier so I only get it when it's on sale. Kraft is definitely a very close second.    -

I purchased optimum Nutrition Gold Standard in chocolate mint for my 17 year old son that's been going to the gym for three months so far. He has tried a few other brands but did not enjoy the taste of them at all. He has only tried the chocolate mint so far in this brand and he finds it tastes superior to all the others he has tried previously whether he adds milk or water. My preference is with milk but I agree it does taste good either way. This is the brand my son has decided he's going to continue on with. I have tried a sample of all the powders he has tried so far and I can honestly say as well that this is the best tasting one so far. It comes in a variety of different flavors. We purchased the 5 lb container for 84.99$ and it does 74 servings which will last quite a while considering he only uses one scoop per day. Each scoop contains 2g of sugar which is reasonable. He mixes it in his mini blender and it blends easily and doesn't clump. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone that's looking for a whey protein supplement.    -

Upon opening the jar of Majestic Pure Arabica Coffee Scrub you're senses are awakened by the luxurious scent of the finest Arabica coffee beans. Dont be surprised if you find yourself craving or a rich, flavorful cup of coffee. That being said the texture of this exfoliant is that of wet sand except it doesn't stick to your body as well. You definitely have to ensure you apply it to your wet skin and immediately rub it in quickly using soft, gentle circular motions. I started from the bottom of my feet and worked my way up my body. It felt absolutely relaxing, almost like a mini massage. I can definitely see how this product stimulates circulation and not to mention that it gets rid of the old, dead skin.

After exfoliating I always apply moisturizer and notice I'm left with healthy, glowing soft skin. This is a GMP product that is 100% natural and not animal tested. It says you can use it on your body and face but I prefer a more gentle exfoliating on my face. I exfoliate my face and body twice a week. If you find you don't like the dry consistency of the exoliant scrub you could always add an unscented carrier oil or body wash to ensure it sticks better to your body. If you don't already exfoliate I definitely reccomend you add it to your regular body routine.    -

I was a little scared about receiving Mary Kay Gel Semi-Matte Lipstick in Mauve Moment since Mauve is supposed to be purple. I'm extremely happy someone must have messed up on the color name because there is not even a hint of purple in this lipstick. Instead this is a very natural looking pink that is slightly pigmented. I have fair skin and I think this color suits me nicely. I couldn't picture this color on someone with darker skin tones as it's not a color that pops.

The first thing I noticed when I applied this lipstick is it went on smooth and creamy and did not leave my lips feeling dry. I don't wear full on Matte lipstick just cause I don't like how it dries on my lips. With this semi matte lipstick my lips didn't look glossy at all but I also didn't have that full fon flat look that matte gives you.

I love the fact that this lipstick doesn't clump up on the a inner rim of my lips like some other brands of lip glosses and lipsticks tend to do. I also like that it gives a full uniform color coverage. If you're looking for a stay put, long lasting lipstick this would not be for you since you will need to reapply after eatting and drinking. I personally like this lipstick but I think it is slightly overpriced and I would only purchase it on sale. You can't even say your paying for presentation as it comes in a simple, sleek black tube that looks quite unremarkable.    -

Although I'm not a fan of lemon scented body products I find this product to be an exception. It has such a light citrusy smell that is not at all overpowering like some of the other lemon scented body products I have tried. The texture is thick and creamy and leaves your skin looking and feeling soft and Moisturized. I find it is slightly overpriced. There are less expensive products that are just as effective but this is a good quality product. I'm uncertain if I would purchase again just because lemon scented body creams and washes are not for me. For those that love a clean, light lemon scent I would definitely recommend Bliss Lemon And Sage Body Butter Maximum Moisture Cream.    -

I am extremely impressed with Clorox Clean-Up Disinfectant Bleach Cleaner. We had a bit of mold on our walls and I sprayed Clorox Clean-Up directly on it and let it sit. When I went back to wipe it up the mold I was completely amazed. The mold was completely gone! I am now going to use this product to clean my bathroom since it kills 99.9% of the germs. If it gets rid of mold that easily I can only imagine how easy it would clean soap scum and any other build up. The smell of bleach is quite strong so I do reccomend opening a window prior to using. This is a great product and will be a regular addition to my cleaning routine.    -
