Definitely a chocolate treat I can get addicted to. I absolutely love these and the best part is that you can have them in moderation and not feel bad about it. I am not usually a fan of dark chocolate and fruity chocolate. I like nuts and caramel but I must admit after trying these for the first time I became a fan. They are tasty and melt in your mouth. I recently tried the crunchy ones and those are even better. I don't feel guilty eating these at all. -
Batiste Dry Shampoo Original Clean & Classic

Let's be honest...we all get lazy right. Well I do and sometimes when I'm lazy I don't like to wash my hair daily. I also have a bit of a problem with thinning hair so I try not to wash it as often as I normally do. A friend told me about the Batiste brand and I decided to give it a try. I was a bit reluctant as my hair sometimes gets greasy very quickly if I don't wash it every day but to be honest after trying Batiste Dry Shampoo Original Clean & Classic it didn't look greasy at all. It did in fact look like I had just had a good washing. My hair felt and looked smooth. It smelled fresh and clean and I don't think anyone was able to notice that I had skipped my wash that day. This is the perfect product to bring with you on the road for a business trip or a weekend up north. Sometimes with our busy schedules as we travel we don't often have too much time to freshen up and up north there is not always a shower accessible (if you like roughing it as I do) so this product is awesome to bring along. Nobody would ever tell you were a bit lazy that day ;) -
Almond Dream Unsweetened Original
I wasn't sure what to expect with this product. I am not a huge fan of milk unless it's chocolate so I was very curious about an Non-Dairy Beverage. I didn't think I would like it. Well I was wrong. I liked it a lot. I used it for the first time... +
I wasn't sure what to expect with this product. I am not a huge fan of milk unless it's chocolate so I was very curious about an Non-Dairy Beverage. I didn't think I would like it. Well I was wrong. I liked it a lot. I used it for the first time with my protein powder right before I went to the gym. I used it instead of using water or chocolate milk. It had a nice flavor to it and it made my shake different that the usual one I'm used to so I enjoyed that aspect of it. I really liked the nutritional information about this product. It's Low in calories and fat. I would have liked it even better if it had a bit more protein but that's ok since I was mixing it anyway. I haven't tried to bake with it yet but I might do that in the future. I would probably purchase it again to give myself a bit of a change with my shakes. -

I was really looking forward to trying this cream as I always see it on the store shelves and I often wanted to buy it and try it. After getting my free sample I am glad I haven't. This cream is definitely not for me. I liked the way it went on my face. It made my face feel smooth and has a nice scent however it left horrible white marks all over. I had cream on my neck, in my eyebrows and on my cheeks. It dried up so quickly and I hadn't even noticed until someone pointed it out to me. I was embarrassed to say the least. I am guessing my dry skin is not one for this cream. -

I haven't had the need to try the Scotch essentials permanent bonding strips as of yet but I let a friend of mine try it for her son's pants and she loved it. She had bought her son a pair of pants thinking they would fit but they were too long. She didn't want to go back to the store and return them so she was happy when I let her use these. I watched her apply the strips to the pants and it took no time and looked easy enough to do. She had told me that she has washed his pants and it stuck as well. I will keep these for my own try in the future -

Who ever came up with this idea is a genius. I have a bit of a problem when I'm bored. I play with my shirt buttons. Not kidding. I can't tell you how many times I have loosened a button while sitting in a boring meeting. I often realize right after that I have lost that button and then I try to hide the hole for the rest of the day. I am going to keep the Scotch Essentials easy fix button in my purse from now on. There is nothing more embarrassing that your shirt looking off since your button is missing especially at work. This little invention is easy to use and a quick fix. It took a few seconds to peel off the backing and put the button on top to create a brand new button until you can fix it permanently. Nobody would even know that's it's not a regular button. Ladies this works! -

So I'm short and I know it. This usually means I can't find pants that are not too long for me. I tend to wear high heels with my jeans usually but sometimes I just feel like putting on a pair of flip flops. Thanks to Scotch Essentials adjustable hem tape I now can. It is so easy to use and the best part is that I don't have to leave it in permanently so I can change it up between the heels and the flats. You can't tell at all that you have tape on your pants and it lasts and didn't fall out which I was a but worried about. This is a great little "Essential" to have in your purse! I give it a thumbs up! -

It smells good, It moisturizes, It cleans and it makes my body soft. I like it. I tried the NIVEA In-Shower Nourishing Body Milk for the first time after receiving it in my goodie bag from Shop Crawl. I have seen the commercials for it and have been meaning to buy it. I love the Nivea brand and use a lot of their products. I have fairly dry skin and I must admit I am sometimes lazy to put on cream after I show. Thanks to NIVEA In-Shower Nourishing Body Milk I don't have to remember. After my shower my skin was soft and silky and I smelled damn good. I have found my new body wash. From now on this is the only one I will use. The price is good and the Nivea brand is often on sale at places like walmart. -

I don't wear a lot of make up on a daily basis but when I go out for special occasions I do like to put on some mascara and foundation. I hate having to remember to take off my make up before going to bed but I have learned my lesson when I didn't one night and my eyes got very swollen and hurt all of the next day. The NIVEA Express Eye Make-Up Remover comes in handy especially for the nights when you may not be sleeping at home. It's small enough to carry in your purse. I have very sensitive eyes so a lot of the time I find make up removers cause me some itching or redness. Not in this case. I put a bit of the NIVEA Express Eye Make-Up Remover on a cotton pad and I took off my mascara easily and without irritation. I had to re dip it a couple of times but at the end of the day I didn't use too much which means the little bottle will last me for some time. I will be taking this with me on my next trip to Cuba as it doesn't weigh too much. I will probably purchase this again as the price is average and not too bad for $7.99. Most importantly this didn't cause my eyes to swell or get irritated so it's a keeper. -

I tried the Neutrogena hydro boost gel cream after receiving it in my goodie bag from Shop Crawl (which was a ton of fun by the way). At first I thought I won't be able to use this. I just got out of a shower and my skin was extra dry. It was in the evening time and I find my skin is worse at this time any day. Usually I use a very thick oily cream on my face at night. Once I applied Neutrogena hydro boost gel cream on my face I started to feel a tingle almost an itch. I believe this was due to the dryness. In about 30 seconds it stopped itching and my face started to feel soft and almost tighter. When I woke up my skin was still soft. I tried it again this morning and this time there was no itch and my skin is flawless and soft. I will continue to use this as my day cream. I think I will stick with my regular night cream for now. The price for this is not bad either so If I continue to like it I will purchase it again. -
