    Beauty Box 5 July

    It’s my favorite time of the month again! My Beauty Box 5 arrived!! WOOO HOOO!! Unfortunately, BB5 is no longer in business.  I want to start right off with Body Drench Candy Licious Lips in Cotton Candy. I LOVE this lip balm! Infused with beeswax, coconut oil and Vitamin E. Not only does it feel good on my lips! It’s kissable! YUM!! #bodydrench My next sample was of HASK ARGAN OIL from Morocco. WOW! Did this come at the perfect time! Not only did I go blonde, but we are also swimming almost everyday! The damage was really adding up! Using only half of the packet that arrived in my Beauty Box 5. I applied HASK Argan Oil to my freshly shampooed, wet hair. Waited for 10 minutes and rinsed. The results last for up to 2 WEEKS!! WOW! #haskhair Next up; my sample of Anna Naturals. This little jar of Glowing Mama Walnut Face and Body Scrub. All natural, vegan, moisturizing botanical scrub is wonderful. Gentle exfoliation with no parabens, no chemicals or  artificial fragrances. This little jar is amazing. This scrub smells of citrus. My skin feels polished and clean!!  #annanaturals Next; a full size Revlon Bold Lacquer Mascara. No clumps!…

    Rock n Learn Sight Words Level 1

    If you have been around my blog for a while you know I am a HUGE fan of the Rock’n’Learn series. From the Rock ‘n Learn Learn a Language DVD to the Letter Sounds and everything in between! 3 year old Alice and I LOVE these DVD’s!! I’m so thrilled with Sight Words Level 1.  Alice is MESMERIZED with this entire DVD. She sits riveted to the screen. Every. Single. Viewing! Alice loves the characters! From guitar-playing Brad to the lovable Armadillo Festus. Along with drum playing, Susan and my favorite, the adorable Chip the Bling-Bot a keyboard, rap wizard. Sight Words Level 1 is a DVD designed to teach young children the most frequently used words in the English language. Words are repeated to music in songs and full color. Alice is 3 and I find she can easily keep up. The songs are catchy and fun. Each chapter presents small groups of words with animation, songs and well, FUN! The songs are centered around 60 common sight words. After just a few viewings, Alice already knows several words!  With the help of Brad, Susan and his gang. Alice knows in, out and up, down. I’m thrilled!! Each time new words are introduced…

    necklace

    This business appears to be closed. BUMMER!! I am so addicted to Etsy. So many absolutely beautiful pieces. So many talented artists! ALL in one place!! One of those great shops is Koco & Viking. I love everything about this shop! From the name to the awesome pieces. Everything from necklaces and earrings to hair clips. Empowering wall hangings and notebooks. Back in May of 2014, I reviewed an absolutely adorable French Macaron Necklace from Koco & Viking. This little necklace was so sweet, so absolutely adorable, I swear it looks like you could eat it! Between the macaroon and the unique silver chain, I was in love. I have two beautiful items to share with you today. First up, a wall hanging that says “DO MORE of what makes you HAPPY.”  I am a huge fan of empowering and uplifting quotes.  I love this little hanging!! This is an original design inside a hoop. The kind of hoop you use to embroider or cross-stitch. The hoop face is painted in a cheery, bright yellow. It’s easy to hang on the wall as is or add a piece of ribbon and hang from that. The hoop is fully lined. Truly a…
