Hey Napoleon, gimmie your Totchos

Hey hey party people!

My dinner got a little creative last night, thanks to Ore-Ida and Influenster. I was lucky enough to get in to the Jingle Box again this year and there was a lovely coupon for free Ore-Ida Tots! We were tasked with coming up with our own version of their #OreIdaTotchos and posting about it, so here we go.

First off, I love me some tots and Crispy Crowns (I miss the onion ones Ore-Ida! hint hint.) SO this little task was a pleasure for me. Normally I don't deviate from plain old tots - don't even put salt or ketchup on them - but this allowed my creative juices to flow. There are some recipes on the Kraft site -here- but I wanted to mix it up a little.

I baked up a few tots, covered them in some shredded cheese and sour cream, then topped them with boneless buffalo chicken bites. Sounds disgusting but it was so good.

So - belly up to the bar and create your own totchos my friends!

Food experiment tonight #oreidatotchos #contest

Valentia True Glow Eye Cream

Hello to all! I want to share about a wonderful product I was lucky enough to receive a wonderful eye cream free from Valentia to test and share my thoughts on. Let me tell you, I am SUPER impressed with this cream.

I received this eye cream in the mail from Amazon on December 11th and started using it a few days later. I wanted to give this product several weeks of testing before submitting any reviews because I wanted the review to be REAL and not just words on a page. 

Here is the link to my review on Amazon, but I will give you the rundown.

I use this every evening after taking off my makeup right before bed. I squirt one pump on to my ring finger, spread it between my two ring fingers and lightly pat it on the area under my eyes. It has a pleasing citrus scent and feels very good on the skin. It absorbs quickly and is very hydrating.

I noticed puffiness reduction in the matter of a few days. My dark circles started fading after a little more than a week. I've had other eye creams that can do one or the other but nothing that has done both so well for me. I like that a little bit goes a long way as well. And the price might seem steep but it is FAR LESS than those creams you get at department stores or Sephora and does the job even better for me. 

I should have taken before and after pictures, but with the holidays I'm lucky I remembered to shower every day. 

I honestly think if you have an issue with puffy eyes and discolouration you should give this eye cream a try.

Radha Beauty 100% Pure Tea Tree Oil

Happy 4th of July everyone! I'm here reviewing another product I was lucky enough to receive to test for my unbiased opinion. This time it is Radha Beauty 100% Pure Tea Tree Oil.

I have an intense love for tea tree oil. In the past I had always purchased it pre-mixed with a carrier oil and would just use it directly on my skin or scalp. This is a time saver but in the long run it is not necessarily the best way to go about things. Sometimes those products don't list what the carrier oils are (will just have it labeled as "other oils") and you might get something that doesn't react well with your body chemistry. Getting pure oils and creating your own concoctions alleviates all of those worries!

Radha Beauty was kind enough to send out this 4 oz bottle of their tea tree oil. I love tea tree oil because it is a great multi-purpose oil. Oh my goodness! This stuff is amazing. I use it in the shampoo I make and also combine it with the rosehip oil I previously reviewed and some other oils to create my night time face oil. It helps combat my dry scalp in the shampoo and helps keep acne at bay in my facial oil. I have also read it can be used to eliminate skin tags so I am testing that out on a few I have on my under arms.

One thing you need to keep in mind with this is you do not want to use it straight on its own. If you are using it on your body you need to mix it with a carrier oil. It can create a burning sensation if used straight on the skin. Just a word of warning!

I am going to test it out in my washing machine with my towels next. I've read it is a wonderful natural disinfectant. I'm also going to test it in the dishwasher.

I have a small 1oz bottle of the Vitacost brand of pure tea tree oil that I'd been using in my shampoo. It works great, don't get me wrong. BUT...the Radha 4oz bottle is $3 less than the Vitacost one and it works just as well! Plus, Radha is on Amazon so you get free shipping if you have Prime. All in all it is a fantastic deal. I've really come to love the Radha line of products.

Thank you all for reading. Have a safe and wonderful weekend!!

New Disney Makeup Collections at Walgreens - July 2015

Hi everyone! I'm going to post something a leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetle different today. I am attempting to use this space more often, so here goes.

I spied with my little eyes a new Disney collection at Walgreens today! I'd read about people spying the makeup bags for this collection with the Belle Elf collection came out last month, but I hadn't seen the entire collection in my store until today.

I purchased a few of the items, the video will be uploaded to YouTube today with the details. I purchased two of the lip glosses from Mulan, the luminators and bronzer from Pocahontas.

Here is the Dare to Dream collection (I read that it is distributed by the same company that owns Wet n Wild). Beware - picture heavy!

Isn't it lovely? As you can see there are three princesses represented: Ariel, Mulan and Pocahontas. Each collection has two different polish options (single bottles and mini sets), $3 small items, $5 larger items, $10.99 beauty books and two different sizes of makeup bag. Here are some closeups.

Thank you for reading! ♥

goPURE® Organic Rosehip Oil Review

Hi everyone! Here's a little review for goPURE® Organic Rosehip Oil. 

This is what I put as my Amazon review: I had never used rosehip oil before getting this. I have some acne scarring on my face as well as having overly dry skin. This oil has done wonderful things to fade my acne scars after even a few days! They aren't completely gone but they are less noticeable. I use it in the evenings before bed and it keeps my face moisturized all night.

Okay - here's the nitty gritty. I received this free to test. If you watch my freebie videos then you know this. You also know I'm not afraid to give my actual opinion on things - so here it is. I've been using this stuff on a regular basis since I wrote the review. Can I say I love it more? I love it more. SO MUCH MORE! It provides amazing moisture to my skin throughout the night. I also have mixed a few drops of tea tree oil in with it when I have my monthly hormonal breakouts....ohmylanta. That is the perfect combo for my skin. A little bit goes a long way too - I use anywhere from 3 to 5 drops - depending on if I'm adding another oil to it.

Now that its summer in Vegas my skin needs all the extra help it can get at night. The 110+ temps suck every bit of moisture out of my skin and I sometimes feel like a sand witch when I get home. This is light, absorbs fast, is 100% pure and organic, and it doesn't stink or smell medicinal. It has also helped reduce some of the scarring I had on my face from high school acne. I'm so impressed with this stuff. A++++++++ from me!

Until next time! ♥
