M3K Beauty Review

Thank You to M3K Beauty for supplying me with their complete product line free of charge in exchange for my honest review.


I'm a sucker for all things beautiful so when my packaged arrived from M3K, I knew I was in for a special treat before I ever got the box opened! Look at how beautiful her packaging is!



The Gift Box Contained their

I am on day 3 of using my products and I'm hooked! I start by using the Bare Faced and Fabulous Face Wash, then follow that with the Regenerative Face Cream and my skin feels amazing! The anti aging hand creme is great as well. My hands feel like pure silk after using the cream. My husband has claimed the Dirty Boy for Fabulous Men face wash and he too is impressed! He came out of the shower bragging about how clean his face and how cool it felt as he was walking. 

This is the very same box that was given to nominees and presenters at this years Oscars and GRAMMY Awards! They were also the Official Skin Care at the CMA Awards 2012 and Latin GRAMMYs 2012 and the Official Hand Creme of the 2013 GRAMMY Awards and 2013 Academy Awards! No wonder we feel like superstars since using this right?!


M3K's products are great for:
Youthful Hands
Menopausal Breakouts
Teenage Breakouts
Simple Skin Routine
Feeling Fabulous!

I am soooo happy with my products. I kept the box and when I'm done with the shower, my products go right back into the box for safe keeping. (remember my post about my teens boys emptying an entire body of body wash)  A little goes a long way when using the products as well. I use no more than 2 pumps for my face and the bottles still looks untouched. This box is an $85 value and worth every penny! I couldn't be happier! The customer service over at M3K is absolutely amazing as well! Really down to earth and very easy to talk with regarding their products.

Connect with M3K Beauty via Facebook

Buy It!
 Just a hint. The Dirty Boy Face Wash will make an excellent Fathers Day Gift!

Decaleco Review #ad

Thank You to Decaleco for providing me with their products free of charge in exchange for my honest review. 

Logo Decaleco

I'm always looking for ways to spruce up my home and add "homey" type messages on my walls. Stencils are great but can be a little messy and time consuming so I was very happy when Decaleco agreed to let me review their products!

I chose the "Life takes you to unexpected places, Love brings you Home" decal in black for my home. I placed my decal over my front door. It's somewhat of a reminder to my family every time they walk out the door that this is HOME and they are always welcome here. It's the little things that make the biggest statements around here! It' visible to anyone walking out of my home.


My decal arrived very fast and came with a few extra small pieces as well! The decal was a little tricky to install and took us a little bit to get to apply well, but once it did, it came out perfect. Decaleco has many products to choose from all at an affordable price. They carry decals for your phone, tablet and laptop as well as an Under $25 section! 


[DCL] 095 Flock of 12 butterflies INT1


Their decals work great in bathrooms as well! You can apply them directly to shower tiles and not have to worry about damage. Their matte finished, thin vinyl can last up to 3 years outdoors and much longer if being used inside making them perfect for a garden area or other outdoor surfaces. 

Overall my experience was a positive one while working with Decaleco. Their customer service is awesome, they ship fast and their product looks great in my home! I couldn't be happier!

Buy It! You can purchase this decal for only $24!

Ssh~oes Review

Thank You to Ssh~oes for providing me with their products to review free of charge in return for my honest review. 

                                          Ssh-oes

What are Ssh-oes?

Ssh-oes are comfortable heels specifically engineered and designed to not make noise when you walk. You know that “click-y” noise your heels make every time you take a step in heels? Well, ssh-oes don’t make that noise!
Ssh-oes is the only company in the world that makes quiet heels. The ssh-oes have a non-slip, sound absorbing rubber outsole and a patent pending noise reducing heel lift so, they do not make as much noise when you walk. Our patent pending heel lift also prevents against wear and tear and acts as a shock absorber to make the ssh-oe even more comfortable.
In addition to not making noise, they are incredibly comfortable! They are cushioned with memory foam and have a lycra and leather lining to make the shoe as blister free as possible. Ssh-oes are fit tested on real sized women so you’re getting something that you can actually wear and enjoy without all the pain usually associated with heels.


Leslie (Beige)

Rita (Black/White)
Rita (Black/White)

I was super excited when my Ssh~oes arrived! I was expecting only one pair but to my surprise there were 2 in the box! The "Leslie" Wedge will pretty much go with anything. They will be perfect for attending my sisters high school graduation this weekend. The "Rita" Wedge, beautiful as well, will go with all of my dress clothes and will also be great for a night out on the town. My husband was really impressed with them too. I'm usually a flip flop kinda gal so he was surprised to see me wear something else for longer than 5 minutes. They are super quiet too. No noisy clacking as I am on the go. I love both pair of my Ssh~oes and will definitely be replacing the flip flops more often!

Likebook

Thank You to Likebook for providing me with their product free of charge in exchange for my honest review.


Have you ever searched through endless amounts of pictures in your Facebook profile to find that one picture to show someone?! I've done it many times, so I was super excited when I heard about Likebook. It's like a yearbook but it's a facebook book

Since the world of technology I rarely develop photos anymore. My family and I share memories through Facebook. With Likebook you can save your statues, photos, publications and comments from your friends and family from 2007 forward. With my Likebook, I chose to only keep photos versus my entire timeline. This image shows my most "liked" photos.


You can play around with it until your book is customized to your liking. Simply log in to Likebook.me, connect your Facebook account and go from there. You have the option to select your time period, statuses, wall posts, and photos. You can also surprise your friends with a Likebook of their own starting at only $12. This would make a great gift for someone who has it all. Instead of spending hundreds on ink to print all the photos, create a Likebook! I am very pleased with my book! It will give me something to look back on for years to come and even to pass on to my kids.

FirstBIKE Balance Bike Review #ad

Thank You to FirstBIKE US for providing me with their FirstBIKE Street free of charge in exchange for my honest review. 


I chose the FirstBIKE Street Edition in Pink to review. The Street edition has air tires that are ideal for urban areas with concrete, stone, or packed dirt surfaces. The FirstBIKE helps your little ones develop balance and provides a no-stress method of learning to ride a bike. It's very light weight. As your child grows taller, you can easily adjust the height of the seat by simply turning the knob under the seat. FirstBIKE eliminates the need for training wheels which are counterproductive and do not support proper posture or spinal development.

#ad #WhiteCloudSleepPants

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of White Cloud Sleep Pants



If your child has ever had an issue with bedwetting, you know how important it is to find the best protection. White Cloud Sleep Pants can provide your little one with just that. The White Cloud brand sleep pants are thin, and provide discreet, absorbent protection for your child. The soft liner is hypoallergenic and treated with Vitamin E and Aloe for skin protection, so you feel confident that your child is 100% protected. 




Bedwetting is a very common issue and I always make it a point to never make a big deal out of it. We made minor adjustments to our nighttime routine and that has helped out a lot, including cutting back drinks at bedtime, and always going to the potty before bed, but for the times that it doesn't help, I'm glad to know that I have White Cloud in my corner! Not only do they look like real underwear, there were no morning complaints of being itchy or uncomfortable. Win Win!




Did you know that over 5 million kids a year experience bedwetting and it is one of the most common experiences during childhood development?

White Cloud Sleep Pants have been developed to provide exceptional comfort and leakage protection while looking like underwear. White Cloud Sleep Pants offer thin, discrete absorbent protection for your child. They have soft, stretchy sides that fit like real underwear, plus leak guards to help protect against leaks. The soft inner liner is hypoallergenic and treated with vitamin E and aloe for skin protection.
Each bag contains two unisex graphic designs and at $7.75, White Cloud offers exceptional value.

Le Savonnier Marseillais Review

Thanks to Le Savonnier Marseillais for allowing me to review their product free of charge to base my honest review. Also thanks to Laura at Celebrate Woman Today for letting me know about this wonderful product!




I recently had the opportunity to review Le Savonnier Marseillais' all natural liquid soap. I chose the SAVON NOIR - 100% Natural All-Purpose Olive Oil Soap in Lavender scent to base my review. The all-Purpose liquid soap is effective on many households washable surfaces. It's biodegradable, eco-friendly and economical, with no added colorant and solvents. 

It's great for use on: Floors and tiles, Dishes, Grease, Windows, Laundry, Vehicle, Garden and Household Pets!

I have used the product in many different ways so far. First I mixed 3 tablespoons of Le Savonnier to 1 gallon of water and used as an all purpose cleaner in my house. I cleaned all of my tables, television stands, pictures, etc. After everything was wiped down, I used the mixture to mop my floors with. It left my home smelling so fresh, clean and comfortable. 

For my next use I mixed about 5 tablespoons to a gallon of water and washed my vehicles. They were nothing short of clean when I finished. It doesn't suds much but the suds aren't what gets things clean so I wasn't concerned. There was no left over film afterwards either. Just shiny clean!

Lastly I used the soap to bathe my dogs. The are much less itchy now and they smell fantastic! 

I am extremely pleased with Le Savonnier and their products and highly recommend them! It's nice to have one product that you can use on almost anything in or out of them home. My next use will be my garden. I hear it's great to spray onto plants to protect them from those pesky insects that can do so much damage. It's even great for rose bushes! 

Buy It!
You can purchase SAVON NOIR - 100% Natural All-Purpose Olive Oil Soap in Lavender that I reviewed for only $20! And be sure to connect with Le Savonnier via Facebook and Twitter!
