Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil

I absolutely love the Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil I received from Bzzagent. I am an avid tanning salon tanner during the Spring months in preparation for the summer which in turn leaves my skin a beautiful golden tan as well as incredibly dry flaky skin and hair. I use a daily moisturizer, and even do a hot oil treatment on my hair, but not anymore. The Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Miracle Dry Oil takes care of all my dry skin and hair problems with just one product, and get this is only $6 bucks!! That's right ladies its the first multiuse oil brought to the mass market, and its AFFORDABLE.

This formula, which is made up of the weightless oils of olive, avocado, and shea, delivers rapid-action nourishment to treat your hair, body, and even dry areas on your face WITH NO OILY RESIDUE!! This oil instantly absorbs into your skin and hair leaving in looking shiny, soft, and silky yet not greasy or oily looking of feeling. I even use this product on my elbows and feet, which always tend to get more dry inside of the tanning bed. This will be my go to product for now on instead of buying several products that doesn't even work as well.      

Check out Garnier Fructis' website at: http://www.garnierusa.com/_en/_us/fructis/index.aspx?gclid=CI2T1cS7sbYCFQHznAodujAAjQ#home for more information on this product.

This product can be found at Walmart and other mass retail stores for around $5.99 a 5 FL OZ bottle

Lavishly apply and treat your skin to a pore cleansing, sensational awakening. Montagne Jeunesse beauty treats are free of parabens, vegetarian approved and never tested on animals.  

I was excited when I received this product in my Holiday VoxBox from Influenster. I have been looking for a good mask for cleansing and relaxation. The smell of this stuff is absolutely amazing. They even put on the packet please do not eat LOL. All you have to do is clean your face, then apply the masque, wait 10-15 minutes while relaxing in the tub or the couch, then rinse the masque off in warm water. It was amazing. As soon as I washed the masque off  my face off my skin was immediately softer and firmer. My son walked in as said I was a mime, then my husband said I looked like a ghost, so it worked in my favor because they left me alone for awhile. I want to try the peel off masque next.

Hiding in Sunshine

I received this spectacular novel from Influenster for reviewing purposes, and I must say I was impressed. I have Adult ADHD and it is very hard to keep my attention, but I met my match with this book (completed it within two days..with four children). It was absolutely amazing!!!

Hiding in the Sunshine is a book about the Brinkley family living lives of quiet affluence in a historic, suburban Boston town, Gavin and Lisa Brinkley had no idea how quickly and decisively their lives, and those of their two young daughters, could be upended. A series of events - a mysterious break-in at their home, some menacing tailgating on the highway from Boston, a startling visit from an F.B.I. agent warning of an imminent kidnapping attempt - leads to the family's abrupt uprooting from its comfortable existence into a terrifying new existence on the run, under new identities. This taut thriller by a father-daughter team follows the eleven-year odyssey of an American family on the run, in hiding through the mountain states of the American west, where survival skills and living off the grid are paramount, but so are friendship, cooperation, and resilience. The enemy, always lurking just out of sight, is a foreign cyber-criminal enterprise that launches breathtaking assaults on the American banking system and physical infrastructure, but the Brinkleys also know that the threat is deeply personal, reaching ever closer to them from the shadows of the past. At the same time, Gavin and Lisa discover the perils of wandering too close to the edges of the dark side, in the murky world of cyber-security. A compelling story of suspense and treachery, HIDING IN SUNSHINE is also a celebration of a family's abiding love and courage -- and a young girl's faith in the triumph of the truth. 

Hiding in Sunshine is the work of a father and daughter duo who reside in the immediate area where these fictional events transpire. John Stuart is a successful high tech entrepreneur. Caitlin Stuart is a student and an aspiring writer with a lifelong love of reading and telling stories. This is their first co-authored novel -- and is proof that a teenager and her dad can indeed collaborate amicably and productively!

When I received the this title I didn't expect to like it must less love it. With it being written by a father/daughter duo I was expecting sort of a juvenile piece of work directed toward a younger audience. I got the exact opposite. You really have to pay attention to follow the book and it is quite sophisticated. This book has so many twists and turns I was having to stop and tell my husband about it. I never dreamed of the ending which was a huge shocking twist. This is a excellent work of art. I recommend this book to everyone I know. I am looking for someone to pick it up and make a blockbuster movie!! YES IT IS THAT GOOD. I compare it to the movie Law Abiding Citizen!! Someone please make the movie.. John and Caitlin should definitely keep writing together. They make a great team!!!!

You can find this book for $19.95 for paperback copy at http://www.amazon.com/Hiding-Sunshine-John-Stuart/dp/1477283293/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352239472&sr=8-1&keywords=hiding+in+sunshine

EBOOST

EBOOST is a boost that does more. It’s a mood boost, focus boost, natural boost, and a no-crash boost that also supports the normal function of the immune system. EBOOST is made of natural ingredients, and a little bit of caffiene (about as much in a cup of coffee). I'm really not into energy drinks despite the fact that I have four kids one which is a new baby and two that are three years old. I am always running low on energy from constantly going. I have never trusted "energy drinks" for fear of their impact on your heart. I have tried redbull and it completely gave me the jitters and caused a great deal of anxiety. When I received EBOOST from Influenster I decided to give it a try. I was desperate two kids with the flu and the others running wild. I needed a fix and a quick fix so resorted to drinking (lol). Eboost foamed and fizzed in the water at first then calmed down into what looked like well, pink lemonade! The taste wasn't that great, but it was terrible. Remember this is a all natural product and is also sweetened with Stevia. To my surprise I did get a boost of energy, and a boost in my mood with no crash later! I will definitely be investing in this product. Why not get energy that natural from a brand you can trust? You cant beat that with a bat! I recommend everyone try this product! Don't shop til you drop... Shop and drink some EBOOST!!! Now I think I have 3/4 the energy my children have instead of 1/4!

Get your boost with the convenience of a shot, or an easy-to-mix powder packet in four delicious flavors: Super Berry, Orange, Pink Lemonade and Acai Pomegranate. No matter how you boost, you’re sure to feel great. All day, every day.

You can purchase EBOOST online from their website at http://www.eboost.com/  It is $28 for box of 20 Natural Energy Booster effervescent powders, which is not a bad deal for an all natural product. Also check out others veiw's on the product on Influenster's product review page at http://www.influenster.com/review/eboost-natural-energy

Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal+

Ok I know I have told you guys before that I am not a big fan of oatmeal, unless it is covered in chocolate in a cookie form. Well, I here to tell you otherwise today. I received Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal in the Peach Almond flavor and it was to die for. This product is whole grain oats, rye, barley and wheat, mixed with large chunks of real fruit & nuts in a convenient single-serve cup. Im also not a big fan of instant anything coffee, oatmeal, or potatoes. If anything says "Just add hot water" I steer clear of it.   Well, I was hungry and it was kind of late at night Peaches, Almonds, and Oatmeal sounded pretty good, so I gave it a whirl... I was NOT disappointed and pleasantly surprise. It was gooey like I assumed it would be. It had huge chucks of peaches and actually a lot of almonds! The did not skimp on the fruit or nuts! I also learn that this breakfast or snack is pretty good for you, and only contains only 290 calories. I confess I am no longer afraid of oatmeal, but I will still to Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal. The fruit does not taste stale or dried they are actually really good, sweet, and juicy.... And the nut were still crunchy? How ever did they accomplish this???? I amazed and I love! I gonna try the Cherry Pistachio and Summer Berry next!!! Looks like I have found me a new snack and a great alternative to my piece of cake or a cookie!! As my kids say "try it, you'll like it."

This product is available at any grocery store and is only $1.79 a cup! I think that is a great still. Check out more about Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal+ at http://www.quakeroats.com/products/hot-cereals/real-medleys/apple-walnut-oatmeal.aspx then read some more amazing reviews on this product on the Influenster product review page at http://www.influenster.com/review/quaker-real-medleys-oatmeal

NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine

I was extremely excited to see this product in my Holiday VoxBox. I love lip stuff... I received the NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine in color #582 Nude York City and I must say it is a MUST have. This formula is not greasy, isn't too sticky (I do like to know I have on gloss), isn't too thick or thin, and the smell is absolutely amazing. To be honesty I would wear this product for the smell alone, YES IT IS THAT GOOD; I would say it smells like a Vanilla cupcake!! Pure pigments give a 3-D effect that’s off-the-charts glossy, and smooth. This lipshine also has a little shimmer in it and what girl doesn't love shimmer. I have used lots of different glosses throughout the years and this one has to be one of my favorites. I want to get every color of this lipshine!! I totally recommend this product even to people who really don't wear lip gloss or lip stick. The color is so natural that it just looks like you licked you lips with shimmer!!!!

This product can be purchased around $2.49 at chain drugstores and mass merchandisers nationwide. Visit NYC New York Color website for more information at http://newyorkcolor.com/ then be sure to check out other reviews on this product on Influenster's product review page at http://www.influenster.com/review/nyc-new-york-color-liquid-lipshine

Kiss Nail Dress

Kiss Nail Dress is the ultimate nail fashion for your fingertips and toes. Each kit contains 28 strips in 14 sizes to fit all nails. All you have to do is peel, apply, and shape for a manicure that lasts up to a week. You can put them on in minutes, and take them off in seconds without remover. Nail Dress is available in 21 different styles, many of them featuring 3-dimensional jeweled designs. Nail Dress doesn’t dry out the way other polish strips can, so you can save them to use on your next mani. A nail design booklet is included in each package, just in case you need a little inspiration.

You can basically create you own look with these strips you can cut them and place them on already manicured nails as well. The best thing about this product is that you can also you them to do your toes!!!! They are perfect for a fast summertime pedicure for some nice new sandals or flip flops. I love absolutely love them. I have gotten so many compliments on them. You just put them on clean, dry nails. I used acetone to clean my nails then let them dry... then applied the sticker. Finished it off with two top coats of a quality brand high shine top coat and this makes them last longer. If you don't have the time, use regular nail polish on all your nails except ring fingers, use these as an accent nail. Everyone asks me about them! I've had these on about 1.5 weeks and there is a little wear but they still look really good. Use the top coat clear polish! I want them in all the available colors!!!

You can find the Kiss Nail Dress at your local Walmart or Walgreens for about $6.99 a kit. Make sure you check this product out at http://www.kissnaildress.com/. Then head on over to Influester's product review by other users at http://www.influenster.com/review/kiss-nail-dress.

Goody QuikStyle

The Goody's® QuikStyle Half-Round Styler Brush is like a towel and a brush in one! The Goody QuikStyle Half-Round Styler Brush offers water-removing microfibers in a new styling shape. Super absorbent microfiber bristles interact with wet hair like a towel removing 30% of water, while the half-round shape makes it the perfect blow-out brush. Use it out of the shower to detangle, remove excess water, and style with or without a blowdryer. The convex half-round shape allows hair to curl around the microfiber base, removing water while adding lift and body as you blowdry. The Comfort-flex grip and slim profile offer ease and control during your styling routine. Go from wet to beautifully styled hair faster than ever!

I found this brush absolutely amazing. I have long thick hair and it usually takes about 45 minutes to completely dry my hair, however using this brush it only took me about 30 minutes to dry my hair and to top it off my hair was styled and I didn't even need to use the curling iron. When you done using the brush you just hit it with the blow dryer for about a minute and the brush is dry, you can fluff the microfibers back into place my tapping the back of the brush. Yes, I thought the brush looked a little weird at first, but it is an amazing product. I asked myself wouldn't the brush begin to smell bad after a while?!? The answer is NO! The microfiber bristles are protected by antimicrobial properties to keep the brush fresh, you can also clean the brush by gently running a wide tooth comb through the bristles to remove excess hair, then wash the bristles with warm water and shampoo. I highly recommend this brush to everyone! It is worth the time and effort. Beauty is process lol and this speeds my morning routine up so I have more time me ME!!!!   

You can find this brush at Walmart, Kroger, or Walgreens for about $12.99. They also have Goody's® QuikStyle paddle brush. For more information visit Goody's® website at http://www.goody.com/. Also visit the Goody's product page on Influenster for more reviews at http://www.influenster.com/review/goody-quikstyle-paddle-brush.

Global Green USA Green School Makeover Competition Presented by Pureology


Every child deserves a learning environment that’s safe, comfortable and free of harmful toxins. Unfortunately, many schools across the country lack the funds to carry out much-needed repairs and renovations—subjecting children to outdated facilities with improper ventilation, poor lighting and inefficient energy usage. Global Green USA is working to address this situation and ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn in a healthy, green school.

The Green School Makeover Competition, presented by Pureology is a program that will select a school entered into the competition to receive a green makeover. Green schools have proven to lead to improved student performance, test scores can improve by a whooping 20%, and attendance rises. It also provides more funds for student resources by saving on cost of water and energy. Most importantly it reduces our carbon footprint. 

This program is important to me because I have children in school and would like nothing but the best for them. Increased test scores, and better health will lead to a prosperous future. Plus we will be helping save Mother Earth. I entered this competition because I live in Arkansas which already ranks as a bottom feeder of education. I would love for my son's school received this makeover, and help make his future a little brighter (with natural lighting, of course)! 

I encourage you to enter you child's school as well. For more information on The Green School Makeover Competition head on over to  www.pureology.com check it out and enter. Texas School for the Deaf (TSD) in Austin, TX, won the first Global Green USA Green School Makeover Competition presented by Pureology, stop wasting time your child's school could be next!!!! READY.... SET..... ENTER!!!!!

Influesnter's 2012 Holiday VoxBox

Well here in Arkansas we were out of electricity for three days due to a ice/snow storm. It was a hectic three days toting around four kids to the in laws house. Yesterday I was ecstatic to receive my Influenster 2012 Holiday VoxBox! It had tons of goodies inside!

The first thing that caught my attention was the Goody's QuickStyle Half Round Styler Hair Brush. It looks a little mysterious so I can't wait to try it. It has super absorbent microfiber bristles that says removed up to 30% of water as you style. I will let you know how this cool looking brush works as soon as I try it out.

The next time I grabbed for was the Quaker Real Medleys Oatmeal cup. My oatmeal cup came in the Peach Almond flavor. I will defiantly try this for breakfast in the morning. Looks like its a great breakfast on the go.

The third product I reached for really got me excited! It was NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine Nude York City! I will test this Lipshine immediately! If I really like it I will buy a lot more since its only about $2.49 a tube!!!!!

My Voxbox also contained Kiss Nail Dress. I actually got to try this product for winning the Kiss Brand Challenge for my Naturals VoxBox! I did like the peel, apply, and shape ease of the product. It's not easy for me to paint my nails and stay within the lines. I was a science major not an art major (haha).

I also got EBOOST all natural energy drink mix. I received this in my Naturals Boxbox and I received it in the orange flavor and it was all that great, but it worked. This time I received the Pink Lemonade flavor and hope I like it more.

In this Holiday Box I also got a code to receive 25% off of my first purchase at Sole Society! I will definitely be using this discount!! What girl doesn't absolutely adore shoes?!? Time to shop online!!

Last in my box I received the Montagne Jeunesse Face Mask. I got the deep cleansing face mask! I will let everyone know about this product as well!

I can't wait to try all these product I will post reviews on these products as soon as I review them!! This was a great Voxbox! I will also be receiving a novel which is being shipped separately! You will defiantly be hearing from me soon.

* I received all these products free of charge from Influenster to test and review the products.
