Mary Kay and Palmers Give That Old-Hollywood Glamour Look to YOU!

Do you have problems with your complexion? Are uneven skin tones and rough, dry patches a problem for you? With summer just around the corner (it's almost 70 degrees here today!) it is time to start working on your celebrity skin so you will be ready for the short-sleeves and flip flops! It is hard to imagine my skin being anything than what it is right now. Pregnancy can really throw you body for a loop and put your skin through a virtual ringer. One of my biggest complaints right now is stretch marks. If you have ever had a baby then you know exactly what I am talking about here. They don't just show up on your belly, they magically appear on your thighs, arms and "other places" as well.
 
How come I never see stretch marks on celebrities? They always look like they stepped out of a beauty salon with perfect hair, skin and bodies. *sigh*. Well, today, I want to share some products with you that will help you achieve some of the looks that were seen at the Oscars...including smooth skin and gorgeous lips!
Mary Kay has been a long-standing beauty company that has been beautifying women for years. Their products are high-quality and never disappoint. Palmer's is a leader in cocoa butter products for hair and skin and I have to say here that I am a HUGE fan of theirs. I love their lotions, body washes and skin care products. If you love chocolate, then your senses and body will be richly indulged with Palmer's products.

Mary Kay and Palmer's have teamed up today to help women look and feel like a winning beauty, giving them gorgeous combinations of products that will stun anyone!
 
So, for this review I was sent several products to review and share with you all today! I was sent:

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Swivel Stick
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Skin Therapy Oil
Mary Kay Nourishine Plus Lip Gloss (Cafe au Lait)
Mary Kay Clear Lip Liner
 
I must say that I was VERY excited about the Lip Gloss. I prefer glosses over lipstick mostly because of the shine factor. Not that I don't like like lipstick, it's just that gloss is more my style. I have never used a lip liner before either so these were the products that I tried first.
 
The Mary Kay Lip Liner is very simple to use...just open it and twist! The liner is clear and you cannot see it once it is applied so you can wear it with any color. I was not sure what Cafe au Lait would look like in way of gloss color (I usually wear mauve colors) but I was very happy with the color! It is a pinkish beige color...making it look almost nude. I LOVE IT! It applies easily with a brush and stays put for a long time. I think this is a marvelous color on me, don't you?
 
It goes perfectly with my fair skin tones and adds just enough shine to my lips to satisfy my craving for a gorgeous smile.
 
Next, I tried the Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Swivel Stick. Honestly, I had never heard of this product from Palmer's before. This is really a great product to have on hand as it can be used for multiple things. You can apply it to you lips to help smooth them out and you can also use it for rough, dry skin, marks and blemishes! This truly is a beauty-routine must-have! It seems to work well for me as I have alot of problem areas with my skin and is easy to stuff in my purse or diaper bag when I am on the go.
 
The Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Skin Therapy Oil is absolutely, positively a pregnant mom's best friend. Like I said before, I have stretch marks and they are SUPER annoying and look awful. After 2 (almost 3) pregnancies, my skin looks like a road map. :)
When I apply this oil to my skin I stop itching and my skin feels so much more silky and elastic. Sometimes stretching feels sooo uncomfortable so having this on hand is a life saver!!! You can also use this when bathing as it enriches and really pampers your skin.

Each of the above-mentioned products are priced differently and so I encourage you to visit Mary Kay and Palmer's to check out prices and to see what else they can offer you in way of unbeatable and luxurious beauty care.
So, in my opinion...Palmer's and Mary Kay really make a great couple. :)  I love how wonderful my skin looks and feels after using each product and I am also a very happy pregnant momma with an itch-free and silky tummy. :) I would definitely recommend these products to anyone looking to achieve a Hollywood look in their own home. Each is reasonably priced and very gorgeous...you'll look great! :)

The Pickle Juice Company Review

How many of you are super athletic and active during the summer months? I used to be...prior to having children and now, it seems I chase them all around so that counts as something, right? One concern that many athletes and active people have during the summer is hydration and the risk of dehydration, especially if you live in a hot/tropical climate. We life in NY state so we have four full seasons, our summers can be hot and humid and if you are active, that can be challenging. The other issue that many run into is having a sports drink that can replenish and refresh their system that is gluten free and healthy for them too. Food allergies can limit the choices when it comes to hydration drinks. So, today I am going to introduce you to The Pickle Juice Company . This company specializes in gluten-free sports drinks that will stop muscle cramps in their tracks and keep you hydrated and refreshed no matter what activities you are participating in this summer! Before I continue wi...

Prem Soaps Review

I often love to highlight beauty and skin care products here on my blog and have been on the search for some really great and organic beauty companies to feature. When it comes to my skin (as I have said numerous times before) I am choosy as to what I use on it. Our skin really takes a beating...especially when exposed to the weather and indoor elements such as water, heat, cleaners and soaps . Have you noticed that most soaps today...even though they smell great...contain LOADS of chemicals and additives? I have, and honestly-it's scary. Think about it...your skin is like a giant sponge; what goes ON gets absorbed IN. So I think it is important to use only those products that will put goodness in...rather than chemicals. The other day I was searching the Internet for organic kitchen products . Specifically, I was looking for bamboo products, towels, dishes, etc. However, I was NOT prepared to find what I did! Prem Soaps is a little company nestled in Brooklyn, NY that...

Wholly Guacamole Review and Giveaway

***GIVEAWAY CLOSED*** Here in our home, we are big time snackers. My husband always says "Time to eat again!" right before he goes to bed...it's tradition!!! So, off to bed he goes carrying a plate of some type of snack. His favorite foods are usually hot foods to "warm up" his belly before dozing off for the night. HOW he enjoys this I don't know. Usually he brings in extra for me too but because I brush my teeth before crawling into bed I don't normally partake of his night time snacks. We LOVE salsa in our house too...it is just something that is always a part of our snacking. The best part about snacking on salsa is that it is usually healthy for you...which makes it all the more enjoyable! This next review encompasses guacamole AND salsa...and my my-it is GOOD! I have heard of Wholly Guacamole before but had never tried it. So when the opportunity arose for me to conduct a review of their products, I was thrilled! Mainly because I have ...
