INFLUENSTER Clairol Professional Liquicolor

As you may have noticed, even though I don't feel particularly old, I've been dealing with pesky grays for quite some time now. So I'm always open to trying out hair color that claims to cover grays. I had the chance to try out a complimentary one (sent to me by Influenster) from Clairol Professional called Liquicolor and I don't want to spoil the surprise, but IT WORKS!

I have had good experience with other products as far as the coverage, but once I start to wash my hair the color washes off and the grays start to show. With this Clairol Professional Liquicolor, though, I have been amazed by it's staying power. I don't wash my hair every day, but like I mentioned, color usually washes out after a few times and as the color fades, the grays start looking funny shades of brown & orange. But I can definitely say I've seen a huge difference with the Clairol Professional Liquicolor.

I received the Shade 3N/83N Medium Neutral BrownApplication was easy, just mix into the convenient dispenser bottle and apply to hair. I will admit that the odor was very strong and I recommend doing this in a well ventilated area.

The color also looked a lot darker once it was on my hair than I expected, but to be honest, I don't really mind because my main concern is keeping those grays away! I also enjoyed using the iThrive Shampoo, Conditioner and Keratin Repair which smell amazing and left my hair soft.

I was extremely happy with my results and I definitely recommend this one.

CROWDTAP: RXBAR® Kids

I received a complimentary package from Crowdtap and was very excited to try out the contents. Since we started making better choices when it comes to our diet, the idea of having a convenient snack that doesn't have any of the "bad stuff" was awesome! We were able to try RXBAR® Kids

Here's are the 3 flavors I received:
Berry Blast
Chocolate Chip
Apple Cinnamon Raisin

I was so sure my son would love the chocolate chip one, but was surprised when he said he didn't like it as much as the Apple! I'm so glad we had a few to try out so we know which one is his favorite flavor. Another thing I was happy to find out is that they are available at Target!

So, I'd love to know if you've heard of RXBAR® Kids and if you've had a chance to try them. Leave a comment letting us know which is your favorite.

Take it with you on the go!

Thank you Crowdtap for sending us this package!

Miracle Fruit - PlantOGram

Have you heard of Miracle Fruit, Miracle berry or maybe Miracle Fruit Trees? If you have, then lucky you because it's pretty awesome!

But if you're like me and you have no idea what it is let me share some exciting discoveries I've recently made! Thanks to my friends at PlantOGram.com I had the chance to try out this amazing fruit! I'm so excited to share my experience with you guys, it truly has been...AMAZING!

First of all, I'll start by sharing that PlantOGram.com has many exotic & tropical fruit trees which you can order online and have shipped to yourself or as a special gift for someone else. And when I say "SPECIAL" gift, I really mean "SPECIAL". The tree arrives at your door in a tall, narrow, bright-green box. On the outside there's a card that says "A Gift For You" & a pamphlet with instructions on how to care for your plant. When you take the tree out of the box it has a burlap wrapped base with a large colorful bow (mine was bright pink & gorgeous).

Now moving on to the actual tree I received which is the "Miracle Fruit Tree". It arrived with fruit already on it! Some were bright red & ready to pick, while others were still green and will ripen soon! There are also lots of flowers where new fruit will be coming in so you definitely get a lot to choose from! 

Since we had never heard of this tree, my son and I read the information provided & we learned that these fruit have an enzyme that coat your tongue preventing you from tasting anything sour. We were intrigued! The only thing we had on hand to test it out was a green lime which we prepared for our live taste test! Of course, we recorded a video of our first impressions for your enjoyment! 


OMG! This is one of the most amazing things we've ever experienced. How is it that I'm almost 40 years old and I'd never even heard of this Miracle Fruit?! Well, you learn something new every day, right? My son sure did, and he was so happy when he realized we have our very own tree that we can enjoy for years to come! That is another wonderful thing about this gift, it keeps on giving! 

We also squeezed some lime into a cup of water & drank it after tasting the Miracle Fruit & it was the perfect lemonade with NO ADDED SUGAR! We've got a growing list of sour foods we want to try next: strawberries, grapefruit, etc. There are so many possibilities!

Can you think of someone in your life who'd love to receive this special gift? Maybe you want to treat yourself to something extra special? Well, be sure to add "Miracle Fruit Tree" from Plantogram.com to your Wish List! I hope you find something you love!

REVIEW: SoapBox Coconut Shampoo & Conditioner

You may recall from my unboxing of the Influenster Spice VoxBox I received, that they included a full size bottle of shampoo & conditioner. It is from a brand I had never heard of, "SoapBox" so I was curious to check them out. I learned that they are not your typical brand & here's why...they are doing amazing things to help others in need. First of all, they are a buy 1, give 1 company which means:
"For every product sold, a bar of soap
or a month of clean water is given to
a person in need."

It is easy to see where the purchase you make will make an impact, by going to their site & entering the unique "Hope Code" found on the products you purchase. I entered both of mine and they are being used for the Clean Water projects in Thailand & Cambodia! Pretty neat, right? Another great thing about this company is that they are cruelty-free. Also worth mentioning is that the shampoo & conditioner are sulfate-free, paraben- free & color safe!

If you want to find out more about this amazing company, be sure to check out their website soapboxsoaps.com & facebook page!

I've got a video to share with you about my experience with these products! Do you think I liked them or not? I'll give you a hint: my hair feels soft & smells amazing! ENJOY!

CROWDTAP: Kleenex Pocket Packs

The weather is changing and it means fall is here and cooler weather (which I love), but it also means flu season is making it's way, too. There are tiny, runny noses that need a soft tissue and I'm so happy to have the chance to try out these Kleenex Pocket Packs from CrowdTap! The packs are the perfect size to fit into your pocket, small purse, backpack, makeup bag, etc. You'll never have to worry about a runny nose because you can have these wherever you go! And the best thing about it is that you can show someone you care, by sharing a Kleenex Pocket Pack with them! The actual tissues are really soft and strong. You'll be glad you have them with you even when you're watching a sad movie!


My kids love these and have found lots of places to keep them handy!

The packaging is so pretty and colorful, it's hard to pick a favorite! And have you seen the cute messages that are printed on them? Which one is your favorite?

Influenster: Apple & Eve Organics VoxBox || Review + Taste Test


Excitement levels are high as we once again join in the fun of another Influenster campaign! Our Apple & Eve Organic VoxBox has arrived & we've already started trying out the juice and sharing our thoughts. For this one, I had to ask my little assistant to join me and share his opinion since the VoxBox is really for him. He was, of course, very excited to participate and here's our Unboxing Video & first impressions:

As you may have guessed, he really loved the juice and I really love the fact that they are organic and more so, that the sugar it has comes from the fruit! It's a win-win for us! He loves to drink the juice and I love that it's good for him!

He tried the Tart Cherry with dinner and said it was good, but his favorite so far has been the "Berrylicious Lemonade"! We can't wait to try adding it to a smoothie for even more flavor!

Delicious juice with dinner!

Sneak peek into our VoxBox!

The juice boxes are so convenient to take with you on-the-go!
PRODUCT INFO:
► Apple & Eve Organics are simple, pure and delicious. Using only the finest organically grown fruits, it's just how nature intended juice to be. They are good for you, and good for our planet. 

► Apple & Eve Organic Quenchers were created to satisfy your kids' thirst for the good stuff. Every one of these yummy, refreshing juice drinks is sweetened with real fruit, so they have the great taste kids love with 50% less sugar than the leading regular juices and 100% vitamin C.

CROWDTAP: Neutrogena Healthy Skin Blends

I was lucky to be chosen to receive another amazing crowdkit from CrowdTap. It came with the Neutrogena Healthy Blends powder and the Healthy Skin Blush. The powder (Shade 30-Sunkissed) is supposed to give a sheer illuminating color that looks natural. It definitely blended nicely with my skin tone and gave me healthy looking skin! In addition, it has Vitamin C and botanical conditioners so you get the added benefits while you look great! I chose to wear it by blending all the shades with my brush and applying it that way to my face. On its own it looks beautiful and natural. I also wore it over my foundation to give it a natural finish.

The Neutrogena Healthy Skin Blush I chose was in the shade 40-Bronzed which goes nicely with the powder & can be used as a contouring powder, too! Since it looks so natural, I can definitely wear this all year round to always have a glowing face as if I just got back from catching rays at the beach!

I loved both of these & definitely recommend them!

REVIEW: Maybelline SuperStay #BetterSkinChallenge Foundation

I completed the Maybelline 3 week #BetterSkinChallenge & wanted to share my results with you as promised in a previous blog post! I've been sharing small updates throughout the process on my Instagram, but now that I've reached the end of the 3 weeks, I can give you guys a more detailed review.

Bottom Line: I love the Maybelline SuperStay Foundation!
Here's a list of things I love about it:

  • Matte Finish
  • SPF 15
  • Oil Free
  • Has Actyl-C (a more durable form of Vitamin C)
  • Long Lasting (stays on all day)
  • Pump Dispenser
  • Blends easily into my skin
  • Build-able coverage
  • Lightly scented
  • Great formula & consistency

Watch my 3 week journey as I test out the Maybelline SuperStay Better Skin foundation.

There were only 2 things I didn't like so much, but they both have easy solutions.

Photo taken with flash
1) The complimentary shade I received "Nude Beige" has a bit of an "orangey" hue for my taste, but I easily fixed that by using a bronzer to achieve a more "brownish" tone. Since they have 12 shades available to choose from, I'm sure I'll find one that matches my skin even better!

2) I also noticed that when I took pictures using flash, my face looked "white-ish", but that also had an easy fix...I didn't use the flash when taking most of the pictures. 

And as far as having "Better Skin", I definitely felt my skin looked great & wasn't irritated after I removed the foundation each night. Also, didn't feel like it was "drowning" under the layers of foundation when I applied it. To summarize, this is going to be a foundation I definitely recommend if you like having a "matte" look which is my favorite!
