Carmex Limited Edition Moister Plus Collection – Fashionable Sticks to Fit Your Personality

This Holiday Season include one of the Carmex New Limited Edition Moisture Plus Collection Sticks in your bestie’s Christmas stocking.  These Limited Edition sticks are for those who desire the protection Carmex has to offer and the shine of a lip gloss.

See how graphically designed these sticks are?  This is because each design was designed to match the personality trait that inspired the design.  There’s one to represent those who are considered to have a whimsical personality – the multicolored stick.  Those who are Chic – the black and white stick is for you.  The leopard print represents the personality of those who are adventurous.  Lastly, those who have a fab personality – the purple/pink stick is for you!

What can you expect in these trendier lip balm sticks?

You can expect:

Moisturizing lip balms with a sleek dash of style, from our satiny clear gloss to just-right sheer colors that also add Vitamin E, shea butter, and sun protection.

My Findings:

I’ve been using the lip balms on and off for a couple weeks now.  I don’t normally have a lot of issues with my lips drying out or cracking – but for whatever reason, last week they were sore.   I took the Chic stick (represents my personality -ah not too sure on that one but that stick happened to be sitting in front of me) and applied it to my lips.  I did this for a couple of days and each time I applied the lip balm my lips felt relief.  The balm wasn’t heavy on my lips which is a huge plus as I don’t like anything heavy feeling on my skin.  After two days of use – my lips were all better 🙂  Ironically, as I was writing this review, my lips felt crappy again.  So I’ve started to apply the lip balm again and am feeling certain that they will feel better real soon.

When searching for the Carmex Limited Edition Moisture Plus Collection at your local retailer – look for this packaging:

Purex UltraPacks Plus Oxi

Purex UltraPacks Detergent PLUS OXI Review

Purex UltraPacks Plus Oxi

Purex UltraPacks plus OXI I jumped at the chance to review Purex UltraPacks Detergent Plus OXI.  I couldn’t wait to see if these little packets could do the job that I had been experiencing with Purex’s Liquid Detergent plus OXI.

Features of these UltraPacks:

  • Fights over 101 of tough stains
  • The concentrated DirtLift Action* formula has 2X the cleaning power
  • Contains OXI – a powerful stain fighter

These UltraPacks are very simple to use.  Just throw one ultrapack into the washer with your laundry, add your softener, and you’re done.  There’s no measuring, which is a nice feature if you’ve got many in the home doing their own laundry. These UltraPacks could end up saving you money.  And, because there’s no measuring of the detergent, you know that just the right amount is being added to the washer load (did you know – soap attracts dirt?  I know – seems crazy, but it does).

All the loads of laundry I used the UltraPacks in, came out looking just like the liquid Purex Plus OXI.  Of course if stains have set in the clothes, you’ll still need to pretreat those – that’s a given.  And if you over-load your washer – clothes never come out as clean as they could (I’m working on getting this through my teen’s head).  If I had to take my laundry to the laundromat, I would choose using UltraPacks simply because of their size and weight.

All in all – I love these little buggers.  Seriously – UltraPacks are one of the best inventions since chopped liver – if you ask me!  Combine UltraPacks with the Purex brand plus OXI and I’m sold!

Giveaway

Would you like to try Purex Purex UltraPacks Detergent PLUS Oxi for yourself?  Two winners will win a coupon for a FREE pack.  Entry is simple – Rafflecopter powered. Giveaway runs from 11/08/2013 @ 5:00 AM – 11/18/2013 @ 12:00 AM and is open to US Residents only.

Woolzies Eco-Friendly Dryer Balls Review

woolziesI was given the opportunity to see how I like the Eco-Friendly Woolzies XL Dryer Balls.  You ask, what are these?

They contain no chemicals, and for those who experience wool sensitivities, there’s no need to worry as these are hypoallergenic. These wool balls are said to accomplish all that conventional fabric softeners do, plus reduce drying time by 25%.

I recently had the opportunity to experience Litter One – the eco-friendly litter box system – a 100% biodegradable, disposable, self-contained litter system – including the packaging.

Litter One

Arriving in a biodegradable box, ready to be assembled – the assembly couldn’t be any easier.  A few folds of the cardboard and you’re done.  The system is not made of flimsy cardboard.  It’s thick and will not easily bend out of shape.  And when all set up – the litter box measures 19″ L x 14″ W x 9″ H sides; front opening = 4 1/2″ H x 11″ W.

Rod Stewart’s new “Time” album will hit the shelves on May 7, 2013 – the first album released in almost 20 years. I have to say – it’s as good as the very first Rod Stewart album that I listened to over forty (40) years ago.  That’s right – we are once again dating myself but that is okay.  I’ve moved on in time just as Rod Stewart has. And I have to tell you a secret!  His hairstyle hasn’t changed one bit; and ironically, neither has mine!)

I know it’s pretty sad that he and I have the same hair styles we did 20 years earlier regardless – you can count on Rod’s new album to have the same rock style it did back 20, 30, 40 years ago.  That’s right – Rod has been producing albums for 40 years and has been a dad for 30 years.  His voice, his lyrics are still as good as ever – some things never change.

benefits of omega 3 krill oil

When I was asked if I’d like to review Everest Nutrition Krill Oil – I was more than happy to do so. I had heard there were benefits of omega 3 krill oil but didn’t realize there was such a difference between fish oil vs. krill oil until performing this review.  You see, I have been wanting to try Krill Oil for some time now to see if I would experience any side effects before I combined it with a few other nutritional supplements in which I was going to give to my daughter in hopes to ease her ADD and anxiety issues. benefits of omega 3 krill oil Continue reading »
