Ingredients:

Plant Stem Cells
Matrixyl 3000
Hyaluronic Acid
Cucumber
Organic Jojoba Oil
Aloe
Vitamin E


The bottle contains instructions and informs you is how to properly apply the product:

Upper eye lids, under eyes, cheeks and forehead.

 It says that you can use this product all over your face, so you are not limited to just one area for this product.  I did use it 2x all over but I really just focused on my eye.

I absolutely love the creamy, texture, it is thicker then others I have used, but not heavy after application.

It has a beige natural colored. I haven't noticed a residue tint or dye, I believe it is just the ingredients in a natural state. It has a cucumber smell to it and I saw results within a week.

Secret Outlast Clear Gel

I haven't used a clear gel in a very long time. So when I was asked to participate in the Secret Outlast Clear Gel campaign I was silently regretting accepting it. The first time I used it it felt like it didn't work... But then I used it again and I am pleased with the out come. It definitely "Outlasted" the NYC Heat Wave and any deodorant that can do that deserves a Metal! #LifeHack#MomHack #epic48

The first time I tried Secret Outlast I didn't even make it out the house before I turned around and had to put my regular deodorant on. I was disappointed. I thought I had found a new alternative to my regular stick deodorant. I put the Secret back on my desk and left it there. I was kind of sad that everyone was able to get it to work for them, I thought my ph must be the reason. A few weeks ago I decided to try it again and I have been using it ever since! I love it! The fact that it doesn't leave streaks is my plus, the fragrance is awesome! When it runs out the girls and I will buy some more =)

Discover Too Good to Be True Deodorant

Some things in life sound too good to be true. Calorie-free dessert? Fat chance. But the dual benefits of Secret Outlast® Clear Gel are for real — enjoy 48 hours of odor and wetness protection that goes on clear for NO white marks:

• It’s specifically formulated with fast-drying ingredients to evaporate in seconds and leave you with a fresh and clean feel
• The Dual Action Odor Technology starts working before you move and is clinically tested to help stop odor before it starts by continually working to detect odor and wetness
• The deodorant is designed to adhere to your skin and resist rubbing off onto your clothes so you never have to worry about white marks
• The pH of Secret Outlast® minimizes odor-causing bacteria for longer-lasting, 48-hour odor protection — even in the most hot and humid conditions

Secret Outlast is a great deodorant! I have yet to see an under arm deodorant that prevents white streak, so I apply after I put my clothes on. The white residue is less with this deodorant. What I really liked about this deodorant was longevity and the fragrance. Both lasted all day and doesn't leave hard to wash off residue on your underarms. A little does go along way. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion =)

Cutis Vita is a great deep moisturizer. It has a lemony scent and is mixed with Shea butter, rose hip and vitamins. It is a thick texture but does not leave a heavy feel. The lemony scent does last a long time. I started using this product on my feet and after a few days my dry, but cracked heels had improved tremendously!

And voila! Smooth!

Ohuhu 52-Piece Cake Decorating Pastry Tips Set Review

                      Cup cakes made with tips 
                          my daughters and myself.




Ohuhu provided me with one of their 3 present cake decorating tip pieces and I know we will be using this set over and over again. The one I used was the 52-Piece Cake Decorating Pastry Tube and Tips Set. 

As you can see it came in a thin case which made it possible for the price to be so low. It is after all Stainless Steel in 52 pieces. We tested about 5 different types but we will definitely get to the rest. 

They also have 2 different other types of cake topping product both having sugarcraft, fondant mold tools set, cookies mold tools set, cake decoration tools set, and icing plunger cutter tools.

My product is currently $21.99

Paname

Paname is a wonderful French Restaurant in NYC on 56th street and second avenue near the corner. I was invited by the Su Chef Bernard to eat.

     The restaurant definitely had a classy fine dining look to it, and I had previewed the menu on line so I already knew what I wanted to order. There is definitely a reservation section on their web site that you would want to take advantage of. I also saw a Fourth of July meal deals similar to the lunch and dinner offers in 3 course pre selected meals that are worth taking advantage of.

    So from what I can tell this restaurant is a New York City hidden gem! My invitation was for 2 people but I brought both my 8 and just turned 7 year old daughters figuring I would just have to pay for the extra meal. Bernard was kind enough to let us ALL eat for free, which I though made him awesome!

     The website doesn't show a kids menu but Vera our waitress provided each child with one. Mind you this is an upscale reasonably priced establishment so, my daughter in their long dresses drank from long stem water glasses and ate spaghetti with both a fork and spoon.

    The kids menu had different types of pasta that could be paired with chicken, bologna (strange, but we are talking about kids). The pasta could be plain, buttered or with marinara sauce. The oldest (8) chose the grilled chicken with fries. I had the Tilapia with toasted almonds and asparagus/broccoli.

   While I enjoyed my white wine the guy a few tables from us chowed down on a steak and I felt we need to make 2 more trips back so I could have the steak and the duck I spotted on the menu. The service was great! The food was great! We enjoyed ourselves very much and will go back soon =)

snackBOX by Rosco shoppe box review

There are a lot of my favs and new products I had never tried before in this box. For every snackBOX purchased $1 dollar is given to help support the Feed My Starving Children Organization (one meal cost $0.22 to make, that's about 4 meals). What makes this care package different from others is that there are 40 items containing meals and snacks, instead of just snacks.

Some products are cups of noodles, cinnamon oat meal and cheez its along with oreos. This box can be sent to the military (small and only 4.3lb), college, meetings, road trips, winter storage, or for people who moved and can't find their favorite snacks any where =). You can also send this package ahead to a hotel to have in your room. You receive a code for a discount on your next snackBOX purchase. You can find out more about Feed My Starving Children at https://fmsc.org/ The shipment on the box can the first day it was suppose to be delivered. The box was perfect and the small tightly packed box was very convenient and will probably be reused to store art supplies.

You can purchase snackBOX  here for $35:

Book Review : The Adventures Of An Urban Fox: Maggie Arrives

My family enjoyed reading this book very much. I felt the words and some sentence structures in the beginning of the book might be a little difficult for my 8 year old oldest so I read it aloud to my both of my daughters 6 & 8. I found it to be extremely engaging and the end tidbit that this is partially a true story drawn from the writers own encounters with Urban Foxes in England added with a bit of England Fox history, was exciting to say the least.

There is a show of growth in characters after a few chain of events, a black cat that showed more curiosity and consideration for other animals, a tabby cat that speaks up more often and a fox who learns to trust. 

This book and the author seem like a tell all loving bunch and my daughters Will Love to revisit Maggie's adventure while waiting for new ones! My youngest was draw in my her love for animals and my oldest loved the dialogue and adventure.

This ebook can be purchased on Amazon for Kindle at the price of $2.99

Bon Appétit Pizza Review

Bon Appétit™ artisan thin crust pizzas are created using premium ingredients, starting with an artisanal thin crust, with carefully selected, delectable toppings. If that sounds fancy (and it should), we assure you preparation is no fuss. Delicious whether oven-baked or grilled, simply pair with your favorite glass of wine and a fresh-tossed salad for an easy, elegant meal. Choose from 5 artfully crafted varieties: Mozzarella & Pesto, Roasted Vegetable, Pepperoni & Pesto, Spinaci, and Trio Bacon.


About a month ago I was accepted to join BzzAgent's Bon Appétit Campaign. When I received my coupon to purchase a free pizza of my choice I was ecstatic! I couldn't wait to find my Thin Crust and enjoy it with a movie.

    Unfortunately it took what felt like forever to find a place that sold Bon Appétit. Target, Deals, Associates, Fine Fare... Nothing. So I did what everyone else does, I Googled it. PATHMARK! In my area Pathmark sells them. So we go to Pathmark to fetch the golden pizza!

     Pepperoni and Pest, Mozarella and Pesto, Spinaci, Roasted Vegetable, but no Trio Bacon... Guess which one I wanted to try :*( ... So I settle for the Pepperoni and Pesto.

 Pepperoni and Pesto: a bold combination of pepperoni, flavorful basil pesto and a zesty herb blend, along with Mozzarella, Provolone and Parmesan cheese

     The Pizza was warm in no time, I think it was about 15 minutes. Which was awesome because as soon as I warmed the oven and placed it on some aluminum, we washed up, set the table and the pizza was ready! 15 minutes flat!   

     The first time we ate the pizza the kids enjoyed it. The second time, they found the pesto to be too spicy. Unfortunately when my girls  think something is too anything it is now considered a "No Go". 

     I felt the pizza was good! I thought it was a little spicy which was how I expected it to be. I have brought a few afterwards, but only consumed them when the children weren't home. MY favorite side dish for Home Pizza is Hot Wings and Blue Cheese. NOT DISAPPOINTING!!!

    I am still searching for the Trio Bacon and will one day find it! Until then Happy Hunting and may the Flavor always be in your Favor!   

Other Bon Appétit pizzas are:

•      Mozzarella and Pesto: features a tangy basil pesto, sliced mozzarella and cherry     
•      tomatoes
• 
  
• Spinaci: a mouthwatering combination of mozzarella, Asiago and Parmesan cheese, spinach and a flavorful garlic sauce
• 
  
• Pepperoni and Pesto: a bold combination of pepperoni, flavorful basil pesto and a zesty herb blend, along with Mozzarella, Provolone and Parmesan cheese
• 
  
• Roasted Vegetable: fire-roasted tomatoes, red onion and red, green and yellow bell peppers paired with a delicious blend of mozzarella, Romano and Parmesan cheeses
• 
  
• Trio Bacon: a decadent combination of Canadian bacon, traditional bacon and Italian Pancetta, caramelized sweet onions and mozzarella cheese

Bridge Lane boxed wine review

     Bridge Lane wine is  a small Long Island New York farm company that creates their wine in small batches in a 5 wine flavor, bottle, keg, box variety that will keep you wanting more. The box is 3L which is the equivalent of 3 wine bottles, just boxed for convenience.

     I was luck to receive my boxed with hints of strawberry and grapefruit through a discount that left me with only $10 to pay off a $40 box! I have shared a $10 off link generously through out my social media networks and I hope many people have enjoyed it =).

     I enjoy my wine chilled. This wine says to be dry but I didn't  really feel like I was drinking hot air and at 11.9% alcohol who really cares right ;). I paired it mostly with desserts as it is a dessert  wine (and tasted horizon with cheese and crackers) I would suggest cheese cake, strawberry  cheese cake, blueberry cheese cake, any sweet desert will definitely do the trick. There are 5 other flavors I am sure you will figure out which to try first =) .... Enjoy and drink responsibility  =)

Glad OdorShield® with Gain™ scented bags product review

     I recieved Glad OdorShield® with Gain™ scented bags from the Glad in exchange for an honest review after testing. 

     These Glad bags did come with a draw string and were considerably  strong. But what I liked most was the lack of smell left be find at the end of the day and the slight aroma of febreze near the can.

     If you are a Glad,Gain or Febreze lover, this is definitely the product to try! These garbage bags cancel and neutralize almost any horrific smell your garbage can could create (from experience). 

     Glad OdorShield® with Gain™ is sold exclusively  at Target,Walmart, Family Dollar and Dollar General. There are 2 fragrances, original and island fresh, box sizes are frequent in 40 or 60 bags(among other amounts) in 13 gallon and the price varies from $10-$17. 

*I was also given a $25 gift card and I brought a box of Glad OdorShield with Gain along with Gain fabric sheets and Glad air fresheners. Unfortunately I became very sick and forgot to take pictures for later, hopefully they won't hold this against me =)

Vitamin C Lotion [Natural & Organic] by Foxbrim review

     This is an awesome product!!!! I absolutely love it! I received this product at a discount from the company and even though I don't have wrinkles, I have extremely dry blotchy skin and constantly get break outs on my cheeks. Which are incredible unsightly and make me self conscious or I can gladly say I did. I used a very small amount in morning and night after washing my face. I used this lotion from February to date, and just ran out of this little bottle earlier this month. If you have not found a moisturizer that takes care of your problems then check this one out. No perfume, thick but light weight, no pore clog, animal cruelty free, made in the US and absolutely worth the $17 =)

This product kept my skin looking like I had a full nights sleep, through my first year of City wide standard testing for my 3rd grader, blogging, little or no sleep nights and a horribly awful stomach virus that traveled through the school like a cupcake sale =| It is a great product , I haven't found one like it in the stores yet.



On top of using this cream I drank plenty of water and cut more fat off my foods and slightly changed my cooking methods to better my life and skin. (But I am still a foodie, that will never change =] )
