Smarty Pants Review

You know when it comes to taking a daily vitamin I am really bad about it. I take it for a while and then when the bottle is gone its another few months before I buy one again. On the other hand I am very good about giving the kids their vitamins. Mostly because they are gummy vitamins and they wont let me forget. My 5 year old daughter says its because she needs her vitamins because they keep her healthy. We all know that's true but not why she wants them. They're fun and taste good, but why should the kids have all the fun.

Well Smarty Pants has come up with an adult vitamin that is good, it doesn't have that gross vitamin flavor and its easy to take. You get six vitamin gummies every day. I keep them for my little treat in the after noon. It's like having a pack of fruit snacks with out taking them away from the kids.

Plus look at all the good stuff that's in these little Smarty Pants:

Only Multivitamin + Omega 3s + Vitamin D gummy on the market!
Excellent Source of Omega 3 DHA+EPA* from eco friendly small fish oil225% of the US RDI for Vitamin D + includes 9 other nutrients
No High Fructose Corn Syrup, artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives.
Gluten & casein free.
Made in California in a GMP-certified facility

*Gift Idea* Moshi Monsters DS Game Giveaway

CLOSED

Winner #25 Emily Reviews

 

 

 

Are you familiar with Moshi Monsters? If not I bet your kiddos are. Moshi Monsters are cute little pet monsters that you can play and interact with. I first learned about Moshi Monsters when Penelope received a shopping store playset with her very own little moshling. Since then the Moshi Monster craze has grown into an interactive free online game with over 70 million players. They also have a series of games for the Nintendo 3DS and DS. Hitting the shelves November 5, just in time for the Holiday season, is the newest installment in the series, Moshi Monsters^™: Katsuma Unleashed^™.

 

A vibrant, side-scrolling, action-adventure platform game, Moshi Monsters: Katsuma Unleashed will bring fans of all ages into the Moshi Monsters world like never before. The non-stop action begins when Dr. Strangeglove, intent on his evil mission to learn the secret of Moshi Picchu, captures Elder Furi and all of the innocent Moshi Monsters – except Katsuma! As the most popular Moshi Monsters character, players embark on a far-reaching voyage, traveling through six new worlds packed with mini arcade challenges and epic boss battles. Katsuma must work to rescue his Moshi Monsters friends, so he can gain their unique powers – from Furi’s “Smash” to Diavlo’s “Flight” – to help him combat the enemies and keep the secret of Moshi Picchu safe!

 

This would make a great Christmas present for the little gamer in your life so be sure and check it out!

Burt's Bees Face Care Review

I am a big fan of Burt's Bees and very familiar with several of their products. I started using the baby products on my daughter when she was just born and continue to use many of them today. I also love their lip balms and glosses. I have used one of their facial washes in the past and even their sunscreen. All of Burt's Bees products have been gentle on the skin and have always exceeded my expectations. When I was given the opportunity to try Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Cream Cleanser and Hydrating Day Lotion I was very eager to find more products to love.

The cleanser is very gentle on the skin. It leaves your face feeling refreshed, clean and soft. It does not leave your skin feeling oily nor does it leave a residue. It works great at removing dirt and makeup and it smells wonderful.

Just like the cleanser this day lotion does a great job of hydrating your skin without that greasy feeling or clogging up your pores. Just a bit of this lotion goes a long way so even though the bottle appears small it will last quite a long time.

Both of these products are inspired by and contain the Clary sage plant. Clary sage has the ability to trap and retain moisture and these products were created to mimic this on your skin.

These products can be purchased online or wherever Burt's Bees is sold.

Stunner of the Month Review

Are you a sunglasses fanatic? My husband is, he owns several pairs of sunglasses, and still, whenever we are out if there happens to be a sunglass shop you can bet we are going in. The man loves his sunglasses! I on the other hand have owned one pair of sunglasses for the last couple of years. I wear them practically everyday (since we moved out of Alaska), and I would be pretty heartbroken if I ever lost them. First because they were a gift from my shades loving husband and they weren't cheap, and second because they look good on me! Stunner of the Month is a club for sunglass enthusiasts. For $9 a month shipping included, they will send you a new pair of "stunners" each month. Each pair will be one of a kind and will come with it's own story and unique flavor of style. In fact the team behind Stunner of the Month travels around the world to find stylish shades to add to your collection. With Stunner of the month you don't have to worry about losing those pricey sunglasses and no more wearing the same ol' pair everyday.

I received a subscription  to the club for my review. Here are the two pairs I have received thus far.

The first pair I received (bottom) come all the way from Santa Fe, New Mexico and were sent along with a sunglass chain so they won't get lost. To be honest I wasn't very impressed with these and I actually think they look a little silly on me. The second pair I received (top) are called The Precious Gems. I am not sure where these were found but these also are not my style. There is another pair on it's way and I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will like them a bit more. That being said these 2 pairs of sunglasses are going to a good home, my tween niece. I think tween and teens would love the idea of receiving a new pair of funky, hip, quirky, fashionable shades to show off to their friends each month. As for adults, both my husband and I think sunglasses are one of those things you have to "try before you buy". I know with my face shape for instance not all sunglasses look great on me. Maybe if there was some way to customize the shades that you'll be receiving. Like when you sign up their could a few questions you answer about your style, face shape, or other preferences and then the people at Stunner of the Month could pick pairs that they think would be suited for you. Or maybe I am just not cool enough, I bet their are some hipsters out there that would love Stunner of the Month. So go check them out if you're curious. Like I said it's only $9 a month and you cancel at anytime, and I am sure that even if you don't like the sunglasses you were sent you can find someone to gift them too that will think they are the coolest things ever.

IT Cosmetics Review

IT Cosmetics are the latest in makeup products and tools. They offer quality products for your beauty needs that don't just cover up but also provide anti-aging technology. Their products are also paraben free and never animal tested. I was sent the following products for review and I am anxious to share with you.

Limited Edition Heavenly Luxe Vanity Brush Set 

If you want your makeup to have that professional look then a set of top quality makeup brushes is a must. This 6 piece set comes in a stylish and convenient case that snaps shut making it easy to take your brushes with you. The bristles are ultra plush and not only do they work great but feel great on your skin too. These brushes can be purchased separately so if you only need a blush brush or a foundation brush then IT Cosmetics has got you covered. When my mom saw my brush set she was very impressed and I am pretty sure she was hoping I would give them to her. Sorry mom, but these have replaced my previous inferior brushes.

Vitality Flush Stain Stick Lip and Cheek Reviver

This stick gives your lips and cheeks a youthful glow. It brings out the color that is already there with just a little more pop. It goes on creamy and smooth and leaves a dewy look on your cheeks and a shimmer on your lips. I absolutely love this stick! It is also infused with rich butters and essential oils to help nourish and moisturize your skin and lips.

Vitality Lip Brush Hydrating Gloss Stain
This gloss is infused with 9 butters and oils that will leave your lips smooth and super soft. One of the things that turns me off about a lip gloss is when it goes on sticky, this stuff does not. It is lightweight and gives your lips beautiful color and shine. It comes in 4 colors and I was sent Inspiring Red, all I have to say is pretty, pretty, pretty. It also helps nourish your lips minimizing the appearance of lip lines and wrinkles.

You may have seen these products on QVC but they can also be purchased online and at Ulta stores nationwide.
