PONDS VoxBox from Influenster

As a member of Influenster, I received the PONDS VoxBox in exchange for my personal review. All opinions are my own. 

I recently received the PONDS VoxBox from Influenster. The box contained a coupon and a sample (5 pack) of the PONDS towelettes. I have to be completely honest, I was not at all impressed by these towelettes. They did clean my face nicely- got all of my makeup off- but I did not like the way they left my face feeling. I ended up having to wash my face with soap and water afterwards to get the residue off. I would not recommend this product unless you want to do double work.

Alternavites Review & Giveaway

Hello! I am so excited about bringing you this great product! If you have difficulty getting your child to take vitamins or you just don't want to give them anything that isn't as healthy as it appears to be, you're in luck! Alternavites are amazing! I even tried one of the packets myself to be sure and it's super yummy!! Your kids are sure to love them too!
 

I try to avoid giving my kids anything with sugar. So a long time ago I stopped giving my kids gummy vitamins that we covered in sugar. When I discovered alternaVites, we were instantly in love with our new vitamins. They are delicious and fun to eat. They are also sugar free and they don’t have any types of artificial sweeteners. I have to admit, that I often take these multi vitamins instead of my adult vitamins.

alternaVites makes a delicious multi vitamin that your children will love. Your kids can pour them into their mouth or you can mix them into a smoothie or yogurt.

Now alternaVites also offers supplements. In addition to taking a delicious multivitamin, you can be sure your child is getting their daily dose of Vitamin D and Calcium.

Calcium is incredibly important for children, pre-teens and adolescents as it can help support strong bones and teeth as they develop and grow. It is surprising to note that, even though there are so many delicious foods that provide a great source of Calcium, the majority of girls and boys over 9 years of age do not consume enough of it**. alternaVites Kids Calcium is a wonderful source to help supplement your child’s diet with our delicious melt-in-your-mouth powder form. This formula not only contains 200mg of Calcium, but it also includes 500IU of Vitamin D and 100mg of Magnesium. Together, these nutrients can work to help promote optimal absorption. Specifically formulated for children ages 4 and older, alternaVites Kids powder can be poured on the tongue where it melts in the mouth (think pixie stick) or mixed into foods or drinks. The yummy Carnival Swirl taste made from natural flavors will have your child excited about something that is nutritious and delicious.

The Duck Commander Faith and Family Bible Review

As a member of the Family Christian Blogger Group, I received a copy of The Duck Commander Faith and Family Bible for the purposes of review. All opinions are my very own. 

In recent years, I've become a bit of a fan of Duck Commander and the Robertson Family. I love their Christian Conservative values and love that they are so honest. So, when I was given the opportunity to review The Duck Commander Faith and Family Bible, I ecstatic!

Clarigenics Hyaluronic Acid Serum Review

As a member of the Tomoson blogger community, I received a bottle of Clarigenics Hyaluronic Acid Serum in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are 100% my own. Post may contain affiliate links.

I recently received a bottle of Clarigenics Hyaluronic Acid serum for the purposes of this review. As you can see, I've reviewed several different brands of hyaluronic acid serum lately. Here is a little information from their Amazon page:

• ARE YOU DOING ENOUGH TO STOP DEEP WRINKLES FROM FORMING? The key to locking in youth is to lock in moisture! Hyaluronic acid is nature's lubricant molecule, and binds 1,000 times its own weight in water deep into the spaces between skin cells. Our customers say they notice IMMEDIATE RESULTS and report smoother, softer, and more radiant skin after just one application of Clarigenics Hyaluronic Serum.
• 98% NATURAL AND 72% ORGANIC - A hypoallergenic blend of rejuvenating ingredients helps to reduce the look of fine lines and deep wrinkles while infusing the skin with pure Hyaluronic Acid (locks in moisture), Vitamin C (reverses sun damage), Jojoba Oil (anti-bacterial moisturizer), Witch Hazel (blemish fighter), Vitamin E (repairs cellular damage), Green Tea (neutralizes free radicals), and Aloe (heals and soothes stressed skin).
• DID YOU KNOW MOST SIGNS OF AGING ARE REVERSIBLE? You can roll back the clock and look ten years younger with this powerful combination of hyaluronic acid and vitamin C + E. Need an oily skin moisturizer? Our anti aging serum is great for oily skin as it is one of the very few 100% oil free moisturizer organic skin care products available. And if you're looking for a dry skin moisturizer, our proprietary hyaluronic acid + vitamin c anti-aging serum is fully guaranteed to be the most effective facial moisturizer and wrinkle filler you have ever tried, or your money back.
• BEAUTY WITHOUT COMPROMISE - Revel in that special sense of care and confidence that comes from knowing your skin is beautiful because it's healthy! Our stunning results come from the potency of natural botanical active ingredients, which are welcomed by your body. That's why we are paraben free, and use no dioxanes, phthalates, SLS, alcohol, or other toxic ingredients, and make our products in the USA in our FDA and GMP certified facility. And we love animals, so of course we're cruelty free!
• TRY IT NOW, WORRY FREE, FULL 365 DAY GUARANTEE - Order now with complete confidence. If any time within a year of purchase you are not completely satisfied with any of our skincare solutions, we'll fully refund your purchase, no questions asked. Simple and honest.

This hyaluronic acid serum is pretty much the same as the rest. I do like that they offer a 365 day money back guarantee- so if you're not satisfied with results at any time, you can get a full refund, no questions asked. I also like that this one is 98 percent natural and 72 percent organic- so it's good for you!

3-in-1 Cree LED Flashlight Review

As a member of the Tomoson blogger community, I received the following 3-in-1 Cree LED Flashlight for the purposes of this review. All opinions are 100% my own. 


From the website: 

AYL LED CREE XP-E Car Flashlight; When Safety, Versatility and Security Matter!
Does the idea of carrying a bulky flashlight turn you off?
Or are you concerned about the cost of replacing flashlight batteries on a regular basis?

The truth is that, working with flashlights that produce unsatisfactory light can be frustrating to many people. Others find the usual flashlights quiet rigid hence can't be used in varied situations.
That is not the situation with the revolutionary CREE XP-E LED Car Flashlight!

The CREE XP-E LED Flashlight stands out as a 3-in-1 convenient lighting source; with a design that allows versatility for use in different scenarios.

Why choose the AYL LED Car Flashlight?

- It features a rugged and high quality military-grade design for durability and versatility. It can be used in a variety of applications which include cars, bikes, home, etc.
- The flashlight comes with an anodized aluminium body which is resistant to various elements of weather
- It is powered by 3 AAA batteries (not included)
- It is quite versatile and comes with a total of 29 LEDS (18 white LEDs and 11 red LED)
- It comes in a user-friendly design. It features a magnetic base that can be stuck on any metallic surface
- It comes with 3 light options; Cree, White, and flashing Red LED for improved visibility
- The bulbs can last for more than 100,000 hours
- Easy operation: 1st click turns the CREE LED, 2nd click lights-up the 18 white LED, while 3rd click turns on RED LED

My husband kinda took this one from me- since, he is a truck driver, he really has more of a use for it than I do. It did come in handy when we were moving from one storage facility to another and the new one did not have lighting. This flashlight/lantern lit up almost the entire 10x10 unit! I really was surprised at how well it worked.

Did you resolve to start working out this year? Did that workout cause you to experience muscle and joint pain? What about all this cold weather- has it caused your arthritis to flare up? If you're like me, you're saying YES to all of the above. Well, guess what- I now have the answer to all that pain! Salonpas! I will honestly tell you that I swear by these products.

Adeline Hyaluronic Acid Serum & Organic Eye Serum Review

As a member of the Tomoson Blogger Community, I received a bottle of Adeline Hyaluronic Acid Serum for the purposes of review. All opinions are 100% my own. This post contains affiliate links.

As I've mentioned before, I've always had pretty good skin- but as I get older (I just turned 34), I have noticed that I'm having some dry spots and a little bit of aging. Recently, I've been trying several of these products. I've tried several different Hyaluronic Acid Serums and a few Eye Serums. One thing I did learn real quick is that you should never apply the Hyaluronic Acid Serum on a windburned face. I was out with my husband on the motorcycle in the cold and then when I applied the serum on my face after my shower- ouch!

While Vanilla Dream is still my favorite, I enjoy all the different coffees in the variety box. Each one is smooth, flavorful, and delicious. My boyfriend tried several different ones. He likes a stronger coffee so the taste and the kick that Da Bomb offers appealed most to him. The variety box lets us both have our favorites.

iGotTech Texting Gloves for Smartphone and Touchscreen Review

I received a pair of iGotTech Texting Gloves for Smartphone and Touchscreen for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own. This post may contain affiliate links. 

Looking at these gloves, they look like basic knit gloves- which aren't really all that warm when the wind is blowing (or when you're riding at 45-50 MPH on a motorcycle). However, I figured since I was going to try them out, I'd do it right. So, when hubby and I went out on his motorcycle today, I chose to wear these instead of my other very basic, knit gloves.

CONGRATS TO OUR WINNER! 
Jaime Stroud

I'll be perfectly honest- during the summer months, I do typically get a pretty decent tan- but now that it's the dead of winter, my tan is long gone. My skin is pasty white- which really bothers me! I get extremely self-conscious in dresses or skirts because I'm practically blinding people with my white legs!

Reach It/Grab It Pick Stick Tool Review

I received a Reach It/Grab It Pick Stick for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own. 

I've seen (and used) many other Reacher/Grabber tools very similar to this one. However, unlike those other ones, this one is adjustable. You can have the grabber part horizontal or vertical. This is great because it means you don't have to contort your hand into an uncomfortable position to use it. 

This works basically like the other Reacher/Grabber tools that I have used. It works fairly well, but the grip is a bit weak because of the soft silicone on the "fingers." 

Hubby used it to get the Christmas lights down from the front porch, in hopes that he wouldn't have to drag the ladder out. It worked- somewhat- but the lights ended up getting hung up on the hooks, so he had to get the ladder out anyway. 

Hubby trying out the Reach It/Grab It 
to get the Christmas lights down. 

Overall, I'd say it's a pretty good product, as long as you're not needing to do anything major. The silicone that's on the "fingers" keeps the grip pretty soft. I am pretty sure it'll be handy at Mardi Gras, when we're stuck behind the barricade and some of those throws don't quite make it over! 

With Love, 

Krista 

Zilu Power Station Basic Review

I received a Zilu Smart Power 13000mAh Portable Charger for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own. The following review may contain affiliate links.

Or have you ever been travelling and can't find the car charger for your phone? I know I have- and it stinks! That's where the Zilu Power Station Basic will come in handy!

Lilla Rose Flexi Clips Review

I received a sample hair clip from my Lilla Rose rep, Laurie Martin for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own. 

Have you ever been putting your hair in a ponytail, only to have the band snap? Or have you ever just wanted to have a little bling in your hair for that party you've just been invited to? Why not try Lilla Rose? No matter what your personality- whether you like a lot of sparkle or just a little, you're sure to find something that you will fall in LOVE with! (I know I have!)
