Costume Discounters Review




Do you have a little girl that loves to dress up? I do! My little princess just turned four years old and she loves waking up in the morning and searching through her dress up box to find the perfect outfit for the day. Sometimes it's Rapunzel, sometimes it's Pinkalicious, but it's always girly and as she puts it "sooo beautiful". This must be a little girl thing because all her friends love to dress up too. In fact, whenever we head over to a friends house for a play date the first thing the girls do is head for the dress up box and deliberate over who is going to wear what outfit.

When I was given the opportunity to review an item from Costume Discounters there was no doubt in my mind what I was going to get. A new outfit to add to Penelope's dress up box of course, I just wasn't sure which one. When I visited the site to make my choice I had no idea I was going to have such a hard time deciding. Costume Discounters has so many cute costumes for girls. I decided I needed some help looking for the perfect girly girl 4 year old costume and so I propped Penelope on my lap and we started shopping. The first thing she wanted to look at were the princess costumes. They have some great ones like this Child Princess Rose Costume that she absolutely loved.
Then she asked to look at the Disney costumes. Oh my, this was her candy store and after looking through all the costumes at least 3 times she finally decided on this, because it was beautiful, sparkly, and came with a tiara.



The Shimmer Disney Princess Tiana Costume has been such a hit since we received it and not only with Penelope but with her friends as well. You should have heard the little girls on Penelope's birthday when they saw the dress for the first time. "I don't have a Tiana dress", "It's Tiana Tiana!", "Ooohh Aaahh".

If you have a little girly girl that loves playing dress up I would definitely checkout Costume Discounters they not only have Disney and princess costumes but they have so many more. From popular cartoon characters, to cute animals, and everything in between. I know little boys like to dress up too and they have some fabulous costumes for them as well. Does your little guy like pirates or cowboys, superheroes or ninjas? They got it! And Costume Discounters is not only limited to children's costumes they also have fun costumes for adults. For your next party or just for fun!

Visit them online, the prices are right and they ship quick!

Neutrogena Review

Neutrogena Ultra Gentle Smoothing Cream is a nice addition to my face washing regimen. During the winter months my skin becomes dry and sensitive, it is hard to find a moisturizer that will sooth my irritated skin without it feeling greasy. Many moisturizers for dry skin leave a greasy buildup that is not pleasant. The Ultra Gentle Smoothing Cream gives me a rejuvenating feeling without the grease! It is very soothing and leaves my skin feeling moisturized and smooth. I just massage the cream onto my face and neck morning and night and the cream does it's job! No more flaky sensitive skin!

Neutrogena® Ultra Gentle Soothing Cream is a soothing daily moisturizer specially formulated for even the most sensitive skin. It's clinically proven to instantly calm and soothe skin while visibly reducing redness. Formulated with Chamomile and Feverfew, it strengthens skin's moisture barrier so it's less sensitive after just 1 week of use. Skin is left smoother, more supple, and healthier looking with daily use. With an allergy tested fragrance uniquely developed for sensitive skin, skin is left feeling calmer, softer and smoother.
  • Dermatologist Tested
  • Hypoallergenic

Zents Spa Review

Everyone needs to pamper themselves sometimes but not all of us can make it to a spa or afford a spa treatment. How about buying a few spa products and having some spa time at home? You know that little extra time you get after the kids go to bed? Why not put it to good use. You can even get your husband involved, even guys like a little pampering now and then. With Zents spa products you will feel relaxed and refreshed in the comfort of your home without paying a high priced spa.

I was given the pleasure to try some of Zents wonderful products. The first one I tried was their sexy and intoxicating Ore Shower and Hand wash.

Scented with bay laurel, clove, black pepper, bergamot, iris, violet, and jasmine, this wash has a nice scent with a masculine hint to it. Both my husband and I really enjoyed it! There was something relaxing about this smell.

Zents Ore Shea Butter Lotion was a perfect follow up to the wash after my shower. The smell will stay with you all night or day and leaves your skin feeling very soft.


I also received one of Zents body oils. These are great for an evening in with your husband. Who doesn't like a nice bottle of wine paired with a nice message? These body oils are perfect for just that. The Sun Body Oil was warm and some how sensuous. With the blend of vanilla, blood orange, grapefruit, sandalwood and amber I just melted into my message and you will too. Close your eyes and breathe in the scent and you will feel like you are in one of those high priced spas!

These relaxing spa treatments and more from Zents are great anytime but let's not forget Mothers Day and Fathers Day will be coming up shortly. These would make fabulous gifts! Check out the Zents collection online.

Bio+Green Crystals Cleaning Products Review


Bio+Green Crystals line of eco-friendly household cleaning products include seven different cleaning products that are completely non toxic. These crystal cleaners are also 100% bio degradable so not only are they safe for you but they are safe for the environment as well.

Bio Green Crystals is dedicated and proud to provide ZERO-WASTE cleaning products to consumers. Our crystal cleaners are individually packed in bio degradable sachet and ready to be used in seconds. A Single sachet can make up to 32oz spray of crystal clean, bio cleaner and works like regular household cleaners. Our bio cleaners are not like other eco cleaning products you can buy at local grocery stores. Our cleaners are one of the only few cleaning supply qualify as nutraceutical grade.  

The Bio+Green household cleaning products include: Glass and Window Cleaners, All-Purpose Cleaner, Natural Degreaser, Bathroom and Odor Neutralizing Cleaner, Stainless Steel Cleaner, Child Safe Multi-Purpose Toy Cleaners, and a Fruit and Vegetable Wash.

These cleaners are very simple to use. The water-soluble pouches contain pre measured amounts of cleaning compounds. Put them in water and the pouch and powder dissolve making a cleaning solution.

I was given the All-Purpose Crystals and Stainless Steel Crystals for review as well as a Bio-Green spray bottle for convenience. These products worked a lot better then I expected, especially for natural products. The All-Purpose Cleaner left my countertops very clean. I was surprised when I looked at the towel I was using to clean with and found dirt on it! This is a great cleaner for hard surfaces and countertops anywhere in your home. The Stainless Steel Cleaner was great at removing fingerprints from my refrigerator and did not leave any streaks. It also did a nice job of cleaning my stainless steel cooktop and leaving it grease and grime free.

All in all I love these products, not only do they work but I love that they are free of toxins that may be harmful to me and my family. You can purchase them online.
