My hair is definitely one of my favorite features, and I like to make sure to take care of it. One of the new "crazes" with hair care has been keratin. Keratin is a protein that helps reinforce your hair, making is stronger, and is suitable for all hair types. Kashmir Keratin has a line of luxury hair care products designed with keratin to give you great looking hair. I was very excited to be able to try out some products from Kashmir Keratin. I received the following from Kashmir Keratin for Read more [...]

It may be Winter here in Minnesota but safety is always on my mind.  Sun safety, especially, is something that I have always worried about but even more so now that we have children.  Even as a teen, I always chose to abstain from tanning beds because I was worried about the possible side effects.  Two of my close relatives had skin cancer scares so sun protection is something I just can't ignore. A couple years ago I came across the company UV Skinz and fell in love with their styles and Read more [...]

Since I've gotten my dog, Lily, I've definitely become a dog lover. They really are "man's best friend". Even if you're not a dog person yourself, you certainly know of one. I know of lots of people that love their dogs, some even a little too much! Dog is Good is a line of apparel and gifts inspired by dogs, for their owners. They have cute, dog related shirts, mugs, cards, you name it! I was very excited to be able to try out some products from Dog is Good. I received products from Dog is Good Read more [...]

It seems like lots of people are becoming more health conscious and aware of what they are putting into their body. We all know that soda is not good for you, but sometimes we want a break from drinking water. Flavrz is a great alternative to drinking soda, or other unhealthy drinks. Flavrz are all natural, organic liquid flavor packets that you put into your water to flavor it. You can add as much or as little as you like. I was very happy to be able to try out some Flavrz drink mixes. I received Read more [...]

With four young kids, it seems like I am always purchasing new shoes for someone.  Unfortunately, the last pair of squeaky shoes I purchased for our 3 year old about a month ago are giving him blisters on his heel.  So when KidOFit offered to send me a pair of shoes for two of our boys to review, I was excited to replace the pair that was hurting our son with KidOFit's. The more I learn about KidOFit shoes, the more I'm intrigued.  We received the Theo-Brown in size 6 1/2 for our 18 month Read more [...]

*I was provided with a personal planner in exchange for this post. All opinions are my own. Most of my time spent on the blog isn't really things that you guys, the readers, see. There is tons of organizing, planning, emailing and promoting that goes on behind the scenes. Actually writing the blog posts is less time consuming than the rest of it. I have to have a system in place to keep up with my posting schedule, my blog posts and reviews that are "in the works" and which posts I have promoted Read more [...]

I love clothes.  I have a closet full of them and they have even migrated to my husbands section.  (I blame him for the fact that his closet section just looked so empty and lonely and his few clothes needed friends.)  But out of all the clothing I have ever owned, I have been completely blown away by the newest additions.  I was thrilled to partner with ANATOMIE Style and they sent me some of their items for this review.           Holy comfort Batman!  While I was hesitant as Read more [...]

Technology is really advancing fast and there are many options out there.  Unfortunately, they are not all created equally.  We have purchased three different mice for our desktop and laptop computers within the past 6 months only to be disappointed each and every time.  Since I know technology has come a long way, I knew they must be something better than what we had purchased and went on a hunt.  Then it hit me.  I had visited Logitech's website months ago and was really impressed with Read more [...]
