Holiday Gift Guide ~ Badger Balm Lip Tint & Shimmer Review

I can't think of a better stocking stuffer than lip balm. It is so compact and thin...fits in any stocking perfectly. My one sister LOVES getting lip balm any time of the year and I have been getting her lip balms for the past several years. She is in the insurance industry and is constantly meeting with clients. This means that she is in and out of the weather, and her lips get very dry. She needs her lips to feel moisturized and also, they need to look nice. My sister does not wear makeup so lip balms are perfect for her.

Today, I am going to introduce you to a company that makes organic body care products that are good for you and for your skin. Badger Balm is family owned and operated and is located in Gilsum, New Hampshire. Some of the products they make are Massage Oils, Sleep Balms, Soaps and much more! Here is a bit more about this company...

Badger is a small, family-owned & family-friendly company nestled on the banks of the Ashuelot River in rural Gilsum, New Hampshire. We blend organic plant extracts, exotic oils and butters and beeswax, and make healing balms, lip balms, safe mineral sunscreens and other personal care products that work and feel remarkably good. Badger products are uniquely formulated blends of the finest organic ingredients available anywhere in the world. Our Philosophy of Formulation is simple: make products for people we love, and then share them with the world. We combine years of tradition, research, and lots of love to create products that work as well as you expect them to.

One thing that I absolutely LOVE about Badger Balm is their Babies at Work program. As a breastfeeding mom, I know how important it is to bond with a new baby immediately after birth and if a mother is going back to work, breastfeeding can take a back burner. Ultimately, it can severely effect the mother's milk supply. So, Badger Balm allows a new mom to bring her baby to work with her. She is allowed to work 30 hours per week, with two hours each day to care for her baby. Whether she needs to nurse, diaper, or comfort her baby, mom is able to take care of her own child while at work. I LOVE THIS!! Talk about a family-friendly company...wow! :)

So, for this review I was sent a Lip Tint & Shimmer. I have never used any of Badger Balm's products until this review and so I was excited to see how it worked for me. This is a natural mineral color and shimmer product that contains aloe vera, and cocoa butter...among other wonderful ingredients.

This particular Lip Tint & Shimmer is the Garnet and Opal color and is gorgeous. When I first saw the color of the garnet I thought it would be too dark for me. However, when I applied it, I was pleasantly surprised. It was a perfect color for me! I typically use a mauve colored lip gloss so this was pretty close to the color I wear.

The Opal is gorgeous as well. It contains a bit of subtle shimmer and actually, works well when applied over the garnet. I am not sure if that is the way you are supposed to use it, but I did and loved the look! As you can see, the look is very natural. It does not look like I am wearing a heavy lipstick at all...it truly is a tint.

These Lip Tint & Shimmers from Badger Balm retail for $5.99 each and would make an awesome gift for any gal on your Christmas list. They also come in several color choices. While you are on Badger's website, check out all their other products that they have to offer! If you don't care for the Lip Tints, there is sure to be something else that will interest you.

Badger Balm would love to meet you, so be sure you "like" them on Facebook and follow them on Twitter.

So, in my opinion...Badger Balm is an amazing company. I love their Babies at Work program...I have never heard of a company doing that I think it is fantastic!! Their Lip Tint & Shimmer is perfect. I love how great it looks on me and how soft and supple my lips feel after using it. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone!

Cafe Press Review

Are any of you married to a computer guy ? Do you lovingly call him a "geek" sometimes? (my hand is raised here...LOL!) My husband is the most wonderful man in the world. He is funny, sincere, loving and VERY handy with the computer. I have issues sometimes with coding and am often heard calling "Honey? Can you come look at my blog? I don't know how to fix this!!!!" And, my charming prince comes to rescue me. My darling is going to be 31 in a week and I am SO excited to be able to celebrate another birthday with him. He also shares a birthday with our daughter which makes the day twice as fun. :) She has been talking about her birthday for WEEKS and cannot wait! This next review item is for him so if you know him (and I am hoping he doesn't read my blog for the next week :/) don't tell him about this!!!!!!!! If you are looking for perfect, unique and personalized gifts for someone special in your life I will tell you that after this post, you...

Sidral Mundet Mexican Soda Review & Giveaway {CLOSED}

***GIVEAWAY CLOSED*** Sooo, with summer coming to a dangerously quick end we are really trying to cook out more. We know that when the leaves start to fall and the snowflakes come that BBQ season will be over. I have always thought that it would be fun to cook out in the winter, with snow and all! Who knows, it may come to that one of these winters. Whenever we cook out I love to enjoy some sort of soda with my food. It just seems to "make" the BBQ and is also refreshing. It is even more of a treat because it is not something that we do often (drink soda, that is). When drinking soda, I don't always look for the natural stuff. Let's face it...sometimes it is easier to just grab whatever is closest and forget about natural goodness. I am bad about this. Finding healthier options for soda is always a goal of mine...although I am not always good at it. :) Today, I am going to introduce you to a Mexican soda that will change the way you think of soda. Sidral ...
