March 2017 Beauty Box 5 Review
Unfortunately, Beauty Box 5 is no longer around. In July of 2017 Hurricane Henry hit Texas, Beauty Box 5 was one of the businesses that suffered. That makes me so sad. I took five-year-old Alice to the Safari Park in San Diego last week and while we were on the tram we sat behind the most exotically beautiful woman! I couldn’t help but stare each time she turned her head. The first thing that struck me was her amazing lashes. They were full, thick and long and framed her eyes beautifully.

Petcube The Best Gadget For Our Fur-Baby! Review

Alice can out-chat “chatty-Cathy” “chatty Selena” any day. (Yeah, yeah, yeah I know…. it runs in the family, the nuts don’t fall from the tree…. yadda yadda ya…..but that’s completely irrelevant to the story!) Thank you Shoplet Alice loves painting! Painting is messy so we only do it very seldom. Not…

Healthy Home: The Rise of Eco-Friendly Household Products
Even the most healthy home has many household cleaning products contain chemicals that are dangerous to consumers and that can harm the environment. They pose consumer risks, such as birth defects, respiratory irritation, fertility issues, cancer, and hormone disruption.
