Good Earth Tea Review and Giveaway

CLOSED

Winner #30 jhitomi


For over forty years we have been crafting teas with the most delicious flavors and aromas. Our secret to success is our combination of high quality ingredients and sumptuous blends that together create teas to savor, not just sip.

I am a big tea drinker, I love a tall glass of iced tea, and I love a cup of hot soothing tea. In fact besides water tea is pretty much the only other beverage I drink on a regular basis.

I was given a box of Good Earth's signature blend, Sweet & Spicy tea to review and I was so excited I immediately turned on my kettle and prepared my mug for the experience. First of all the smell is wonderful I actually inhaled the scent a few times and I knew I was going to love this stuff. This tea was just what I expected a combination of black tea and spice coming from cinnamon, anise, ginger root and peppermint and a hint of sweetness from the orange, chamomile, and papaya leaves and just a wee bit of tang from the lemongrass. It was very good, so good in fact that I had to share some of the tea bags with friends and family. I also tried a cup with a little milk and honey for a little more sweetness since this tea does not contain any sugar and enjoyed it that way as well. It almost tasted like Chai tea this way.

Good Earth has a variety of other teas and all can be purchased in retail stores nationwide. You can also purchase these teas online.

Want to win a box of Sweet and Spicy Tea? Each box contains 25 tea bags.

To Enter: Leave me a comment telling me another Good Earth tea you would like to try. You can get extra entries for following GGG through GFC, Subscribing via email, liking us on Facebook and following via Twitter.

This giveaway will end on April 10, 2012. I will choose the winner using Random.org. Please leave a valid email address if it is not visible in your profile. US entries only.

Sue Devitt Eye Intensifier Pencil Review


I was given the opportunity to review celebrity makeup artist Sue Devitt's Eye Intensifier Pencil. The Eye Intensifier Pencil comes in 13 different shades and is water resistant. This eyeliner pencil has a velvety texture that glides on easily and smoothly. I am a big fan of black eye liner and I really love the way this pencil helps me create the perfect lined eye. The opposite end of the pencil is an applicator tip that is suppose to help you get that smoky eye look by blending the liner. Maybe I am just bad at applying makeup because I had a hard time using the applicator to blend the eyeliner. It would just rub off kinda like an eraser. I love the pencil and how simple it is to create that perfect lined eye that doesn't crease or wear off, but I have been ignoring the applicator tip. Maybe I should have our resident makeup artist Loli test it out for me! This eyeliner pencil also contains anti-aging ingredients that help lock in moisture and is gentle on the delicate skin around your eyes.

You can purchase this Eye Intensifier Pencil ($22) and other Sue Devitt cosmetics online and in select stores. Check out their store locator to find one near you.

Neo Cell Review

I have recently had the opportunity to try out & review NeoCell products .. NeoCell Corporation is a leader in the natural supplement and skin care industries offering consumers around the globe access to products that promote health and wellness.
I typically am not a huge health fanatic , but I do love to take care of my skin . So when I was given the opportunity to try out NeoCell's Collagen & Anti aging products , I jumped at the opportunity !
I have been faithfully taking Neo Cell for about 5 weeks now & can wholeheartedly say that I am officially a HUGE fan . Not only does my skin feel softer & look healthier but my body feels good as well . My joints don't feel as stiff and my nails are much more resilient !
I will not hesitate to buy this product when I'm out ! One thing I noticed was that I didn't need to use such a heavy face cream anymore , as I was faithful to use NeoCell , my skin began to produce it's own natural based oil . I noticed my skin had a healthy , natural glow .Normally I had to add my own shine via bronzer .
Needless to say Please check out & do your own beauty research on this Hidden Beauty Secret . Not only do they have products that promote beauty from within but they have a HUGE list of all natural products for everyday needs .You will not be disappointed !

Jouer Lip Sheer Review


"To empower women to look and feel beautiful with a stylist's approach to modern, effortless beauty for everyday and every occasion, offering the most wearable colors, quality formulas, and intelligent packaging, customizable to best suit an individuals lifestyle."

That is the mission of the Jouer cosmetic line. The 133‐item collection consists of cosmetics for your face, lip, eye and cheek, and also includes makeup brushes, cosmetic bags and their latest body butter.

I was given the opportunity to review Jouer's Lip Sheers with SPF 15 in 2 different shades.

Features:
·        4 sheer wearable shades

Benefits:
·        Protects lips with SPF 15
·        Vitamin E and Aloe Vera to lock in moisture 
·         Moisturizes, nourishes, and protects

Packaging:
·        Slim chocolate tube

 Sale Price:
         $22

The two shades I chose to review were St. Tropez (a sheer shimmering bronze nude) and St. Barths (a sheer coral red). I was very impressed with these lip sheers. As the name implies they leave a sheer tint of color to your lips. The color is very noticeable but not over done so you can wear these anywhere without ever looking or feeling like your overly made up. They leave a touch of gloss to your lips and a are very moisturizing. I love that they have added SPF as I never think about protecting my lips when I leave the house but I realize it is important. These have replaced my former lipsticks in my purse so I always have them on me and can touch up anytime I need. I have been alternating between the two colors because they are both great. If you are looking for a nice sheer lip color with a lot of shimmer then these are perfect. You can purchase them online.

The Rebound Review

The Rebound
Want to cuddle up this winter with a captivating comedy, and learn that age is just a number. The Rebound stars Academy Award®-winner Catherine Zeta-Jones*, one of my favorite actresses, and oh so hunky Justin Bartha. Together they show us it's never too late for love! 
Upon discovering her husband’s infidelity, Sandy (Zeta-Jones) and her two kids move from the suburbs to pursue a new life in the big city. There she meets Aram (Bartha), a local coffee shop employee whose wife only married him as a means to getting her green card. The two strike up a friendship which eventually evolves into something more. But it isn’t long before they’re faced with the big question - “Is this real or just a rebound?"

My husband and I both enjoyed this movie. It was a great movie to snuggle up to with some popcorn and a glass of wine, after the kids were put to bed of course! The nice part about this movie is it isn't your typical romantic comedy, it had a few surprising twists to it. I recommend this movie for your next date night!

Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment's the Rebound is out on Blu-ray and DVD now!
