Beat Wintertime Nasal Congestion with Afrin No Drip!

Well, the cold weather is upon us and winter is about to begin officially. I cannot believe that we are out of fall, past Thanksgiving and 2 1/2 WEEKS AWAY from CHRISTMAS!! This has been a really nice season for us here in NY and we have been enjoying some warmer days. Just the other day I was outside with my two older children and we were cleaning up the outdoor toys in the backyard...it was gorgeous. There were no heavy coats needed, just sweatshirts and that was wonderful!! Well, as always, I am having some issues with seasonal congestion and in the past, I have just suffered through it. Not any more...I am sticking up for myself against this icky congestion!

Today, I am going to take just a few minutes to tell you about Afrin No Drip...a nasal decongestant that works really well to clear and relieve cold and allergy congestion. As a BzzAgent, I have been given the opportunity to review this product and share it with you! Hopefully it will be of interest to you and will be something that will help you feel better this holiday season.
So, for this review I was sent a bottle of Afrin No Drip to try out. I truly wish I had this when I was expecting my son. I had an awful cold and could take nothing for it. Obviously, I would need to check with my doctor to see if it would have been OK to take while pregnant but this would have helped me immensely.
This nasal spray does not drip down your throat and stays where the congestion is. I haven't used nasal sprays regularly in the past prior to this review, although I have tried them from time to time. I would say that I like the concept of using a nasal spray as opposed to taking a pill as it targets the congestion right where it is.
I will say that Afrin No Drip works very well on me...although the taste is awful. I had a bitter taste in the back of my throat for about 10 minutes after using and that was just with one spray in each nostril. It is recommended that you use 2-3 sprays. All you do is grasp the bottle as shown above, then insert the tip into your nostril. Before you use it for the first time, prime the pump firmly several times. Keeping your head straight, depress the rim and sniff deeply. That's it! Relief is THERE!

Like I said, it cleared my congestion up almost instantly and I felt much better. I didn't care for the taste but if it means my head is clearer, it is worth it! Afrin No Drip retails for about $7.50/bottle and can be purchased online or at a drugstore near you. Check out Afrin on Facebook for more product information and news!

Carmex Vanilla & Lime Twist Review & Prize Pack GIVEAWAY {CLOSED}

I do have a sister who is crazy about lip balms too, so I make sure to pass on some of my goodies to her. My daughter is also really fond of these little sticks of balm too...and LOVES to put on like two or three inches of it when she is given the chance! As a Carmex Blog Squad Member , I am privileged to bring you new and exciting products that Carmex has recently released and they are NEVER a disappointment! So, this next review is brought to you by Carmex and is featuring their brand new Vanilla Twist and Lime Twist Ultra Moisturizing Lip Balms ! Carmex has been one of my favorite brands to use lately mainly because I love the tingly sensation that is present after using their products.

Carmex Healing Lotion & Healing Cream Review

Because I am a member of the Carmex Blog Squad , I am informed of and privileged to bring you reviews of Carmex's newest products! This is something that I have been doing for awhile and have really grown to love the Carmex brand. The newest products that have been introduced by Carmex are lovely and will definitely impress you as they have me. Because I am a mom, I wash my hands frequently. After diaper changes, before cleaning wounds, bathroom breaks, preparing food...all this requires clean hands. Because I usually apply lotion while I am moving and going from one thing to the next, I do not like a greasy lotion. I HATE applying a cream and having to "dry" my hands for the next half hour. What a perfectly good waste of time that is. So, I was wondering what Carmex would offer me in way of fast and quickly absorbing lotion. Before I continue, here is a bit more about Carmex for those of you who are new to their brand... Carmex® lip balm was invented in 1...

Community Coffee Review

In my house, I am the only coffee drinker. This means that I can choose the type (caffeinated or decaf), flavor and strength of my coffee. I fell in love with coffee when I was in high school and have never looked back. To me, it is relaxing to sip on a cup in the morning and to enjoy a cup while visiting with friends. Holding onto a mug also gives me something to do with my hands instead of flapping them around. Ha ha! Well, we have just ended a wonderful holiday season and I am sure many of you enjoyed coffee in fun and delicious seasonal flavors. I also love how there are special liquid coffee creamers that take on a holiday feel as well...eggnog, hazelnut and peppermint to name a few. YUM! Well, just because the holidays are over, doesn't mean you cannot enjoy a taste of them now! I am sure many of you have heard of Community Coffee and their delicious variety of coffees. Well, I have known about them for some time now but have never tried their brand before. I was ...
