The cutest soda distributers ever.

This weekend I attempted to sell some of my old things at a yardsale. After all they say one persons junk is another persons treasure. I had the two cutest salesmen in the world there to assist in selling sodas to quench the thirsts of the shoppers.Who could possibly resist these cute faces?? The yard sale wasn't a roaring success, but the kids had a great time and got a few extra bucks in spending money. That's what it's all about. Spending quality time with the family and making great memories in the process.

Neutrogena Product review

 So, because I am a BzzAgent for Bzzagent.com I was lucky enough to take part in the Neutrogena Campaign. Here is my review of the three products I was sent.




I was so excited to get my package in the mail yesterday i could hardly wait to try the products out. The first I used was the brightening eye protector. It went on super smooth and i didn't feel cakey or heavy on my eyes at all. I was very pleasantly surprised at the outcome. This is a product i have fell in love with in such a short time and will be an everyday part of my makeup routine from this point forward. If i had to pick a downfall for this product it would be the brush. I believe the brush style could be improved by making it a sponge type material which would be easier to smooth on the eyes. I brushed the product on and then used my fingers to rub it in, which is fine but if it had an applicator that made it easier to smooth on without using my fingers I believe it would only improve the product. The second product i tried was the revitalizing lip balm. This product is also a great find. I can't wait to keep using it daily to see if the improvement in my lip smoothness. I loved the colors, and the softness and hours later you could still see the balm on my lips and it looked natural and didn't fade in some spots and not in others like some lipstick does. I felt no need to reapply. The shape was such a pleasant added bonus to this product. It felt silky and smooth and didn't feel heavy at all. This is an amazing product that will be placed in my purse and used very frequently. Thirdly i applied the nourishing eyeliner I loved how smooth it went onto my eye and it looked wonderful. I believe that this products only downfall again would be the smudger. It was a rubber type material that i think would have worked better if it were maybe a sponge type as well. It didn't seem to smudge very well on my eyelid, but the eyeliner applicator itself was quite pleasant. I also noticed that this product rubs off very easily on my fingers if i run them over my eyelid. Thanks so much Neutrogena and Bzzagent for this great opportunity. I know the next time i make a trip for makeup these new finds will for sure be on my list.

If you love to read....

Check out this wonderful website i discovered awhile back.

www.paperbackswap.com

What an amazing discovery for an avid or even casual reader. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Here is how this genius website works. You have books around that you have read, you post them on this site and pick the books you are interested in reading to a wish list. You then send one of your books out upon the request of another member and get to pick one of your books from your list to be sent directly to your house. What a GREAT concept if you ask me. It has quickly become one of my favorite sites.

Check it out people! :D
