The Girl With The Spider Tattoo

Yay my box arrived a couple of days ago. I was happy it arrived right around Christmas :-) I love surprises and this box was full of them. I had no idea what I was going to receive. Actually, I thought they were sending me a box of chocolates because a bunch of other members said they got one. I already got a box of a variety pack of Ferero Rocher chocolates from someone for Christmas so I'm glad I didn't get another one... This is what was inside:                                                   Kiss Nail Dress Nail Strips in Teddy They're black with golden jeweled drops on them. I love the way they look. I had to open them and try them out right away because the just looked so cool in the package. The package came with: 28 strips that can be used for fingertips and toes and a mini nail Emory board. They can be stuck on your nail...

If your skin gets super dry and cracks during the colder seasons, I can totally relate. My skin gets dry, especially my hands. When I say dry, I mean ashy, cracked and scaley. My hands almost look slightly reptilian. Ew. I know. As a bzzagent I was offered the opportunity to review Neutrogena's Norwegian Formula Hand Cream and I checked the mailbox everyday in anticipation of it arriving. Then, it finally arrived. My hands just happened to be extra dry that day, so of course I ripped the box open, looked over the official bzzguide and found the tube of lotion that was mine to keep. As you can see in the picture, not only did I receive my very own full sized bottle, but some little samples to share as well. The full sized bottle looked smaller than I had imagined it would be, (only 2 OZ), but the bottle says "just a dab heals dry skin." I'm sorry Neutrogena, but have you seen my hands before? OMG right? OK, so those are two before photos. And I knew there ...

Haven't posted up too much  in the last few days because I was busy with all of the holiday madness. Helping the family search around for Christmas gifts, some decorating, cleaning up around the house and scheduling a Christmas family with my in laws and my family. I cooked some stuffed mushrooms that came out pretty good. I love mushroms. My mom made a turkey lasagna with some garlic bread. My fiance's mom made a smoked turkey, a couple of spinach salads, some veggie sides, and some yummy desserts. I got a variety of pita chips, hummus and other dips to add in as well. There was so much food and it all looked great but I did pretty good as far as portion control. I mainly ate the salads and veggie sides, pita chips and hummus. I had a few of my mother in law's desserts be a use she is an awesome baker and makes these delicious rocky road bars and brownies.  I just had a few, I swear...hehe Anyway, we all ate, talked, watched movies and sat around exchanging gifts. It was...

Just thought I would create an updated post on one of my favorite products that i received for FREE from Bzzagent. I am still hooked on the Burt's Bees Intense Hydration face care line with Clary Sage in it. And with the crazy temperatures flucating from hot to freezing here in Texas, you better believe that I need a product like this line that can keep my face super soft. Otherwise, my face would probably be peeling pretty bad right about now. Now I try to use the Intense Hydration Cleanser in the morning and the evening every single day. I find that it works best if I use a little plastic scrub pad (from an old loreal face cleanser--it's oval shaped and meant to be used with a different face wash that really didn't soften my face as well as Burt's Bees). I squeeze a little bit onto the scrub pad and massage it all over my face, slowly. Then I leave it on for a couple of minutes and rinse it off. It removes my makeup, makes my skin feel fresh and leaves it amazingly...

I finally got a chance to use the Head and Shoulders Damage Rescue shampoo and conditioner after coming home from the gym with dirty, sweaty hair. I had a really good workout--took 3 classes in a row so my hair was pretty nasty. Believe me, I was more than happy to wash it as soon as I came home. And I was also excited because I love trying out new products...(in case you didn't read my previous posts, I'm a member of Influenster and received 2 full sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner COMPLIMENTARY--i love being a member! Back to my review... Let me start by talking about the shampoo. It is a 14.2 FL OZ bottle! The bottle states that it "leaves hair up to 10 X stronger, conditions to nourish damaged hair, helps relieve dryness, locks in moisture, relieves irritation, has a rich nourishing formula with 3 conditioning ingredients, is gentle and pH balanced and can be used on color treated or perms, and also helps get rid of dandruff." - wow after reading a...

I'm always happy to try new hair products, especially ones that are supposed to strengthen and repair your hair. I was happy to hear that I was going to be receiving another voxbox and it was going to contain full sized bottles of shampoo and conditioners. Now, if you've read my most popular lens on squidoo- -http://www.squidoo.com/how-to-straighten-really-curly-hair , you would know that I gave up using liquid shampoos and most liquid conditioners a long time ago, for several reasons. However, I am very curious about this particular product and would like to know if it would actually decrease the frizz in my hair, strengthen and repair it, and also remove the tiny bit of dandruff I recently started getting. I received my voxbox from Influenster for FREE of course, recently, to keep, use and review, so that is exactly what I'm going to do. I wish I could actually say that I've already used the shampoo and conditioner but I can only wash my hair two-three days a ...

My latest campaign as a Bzzagent was for Alpha-Bits cereal. Do you remember this stuff? Add caption When I was a kid my mom used to always buy this cereal for us. It was actually one of my favorites. No, it's not like many of the sugary cereals. I kinda think it's a lot like Lucky Charms without the marshmallows (I love lucky charms by the way...). Anyway, I loved the taste back then and I still do today. My son had never tried this cereal before but I was sure he was going to love it too. When it came in the mail, I opened the box and there was an Official Bzz Guide, a page of $1.00 off coupons, and a FREE full sized box of Post Alpha-Bits cereal. My son saw me opening it and ran over. He saw Super Why on the box and got really excited because he's a fan of PBS kids and the show.   He wanted me to open the box right away. I poured some on a plate. (He likes to eat his cereal dry and drink a cup of milk most of the time--He's silly like th...
