Spring Fashion and Beauty feat. Jergens Natural Glow (Sponsored Post)

Spring Fashion and Beauty feat. Jergens Natural Glow!





I'm not gonna lie- I sort of hate the winter! I am so happy that Spring has sprung (though I realize it is still being a bit temperamental in some areas). One of the first things that I do when the season changes, is switch out the clothes in my closet: I bid my winter wardrobe a bon voyage and heartily welcome the lighter fare of my spring/summer clothes. Two of my absolute favorite pieces in my Spring wardrobe are maxi dresses/skirts and sandals! I also love the bright colors that tend to trend in the warmer weather seasons, so I've highlighted all of those things in my ideal spring outfit set above!

Today's Smell Good: VS Fantasies Forever Pink

VS Fantasies Forever Pink Body Wash, Fragrance Mist, and Body Lotion 

I guess you could say I go through certain obsessions in cycles. Case in point: I switch back and forth between obsessively collecting scents from Bath and Body Works and then switch to Victoria's Secret  {and I don't do it on a small scale-I have to have the trifecta as displayed above}. Apparently I've been on my Bath and Body Works kick for about 6-7 years now, with the frequency with which I make purchases escalating somewhat in the past 2 years or so. But I think that I've exhausted the scent collection from my beloved BBW {well, for body fragrance at least, I'm still quite obsessed with their 3-Wick Candles and Wallflowers... and I may be enticed to the store form time to time when Limited Edition/Seasonal collections appear}. But now, I'm making the transition over to Victoria's Secret...

Loved By Kids of All Ages! (Well, At Least 3 Ages)-A Cut The Rope Toy Review

Cut the Rope is an uber popular mobile game app that apparently I was just not cool enough to be aware of . I say this because I was going to pass up on the opportunity to review the new line of toys based on the game, when Peyton saw the email over my shoulder {nosy girl!} and said something to the effect of "OMG! Om Nom! I LOVE him!!!!" So I agreed to review a few things... you know...for the girls...


Om Nom's Playground- Quick Set (Windmill): All 3 of the girls loved playing with this-we had peace and quiet for a good 30 minutes while they all played with it. Unfortunately, they scattered all the pieces around the house shortly after that, so this is the only picture I was able to get :(

Own Skincare Day Lip Treatment May Be the Most Unique Lip Balm You've Ever Seen!

Own Skincare Day Lip Treatment with SPF 10


So... I'm obsessed with lip balm {I may have to show y'all my stash some day just so you can understand the magnitude of said obsession}, so I don't really turn down opportunities to review new lip balms. I was even more excited to try this one, it's from the relatively new line, Own Skincare. I mean how could I pass on a lip product created by skin care innovators {the line features an interesting ingredient-it is the only brand in the US that has a patent to use Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA), a clinically-tested natural compound derived from the safflower plant, that has been proven to help skin retain moisture, activate cell renewal and repair collagen structure}. So baby soft lips, here I come!

Sexy Smooth Legs in 3 Coconutty Steps!

Shaving Essentials

I'm not gonna lie, prior to being sent these products to try, I was pretty set in my ways when it came to my shaving routine. I leaned towards a specific razor, preferred to a certain shave cream (or creamy body wash in a pinch), and always coated my gams in the same moisturizer afterwards. To say these have been a game changer for me would be an understatement...

Reviva Labs Problem Skin Mask

Reviva Labs Problem Skin Mask


I've had this mask for a while {Reviva Labs graciously sent it out to me to give it a go}, but I broke it out for the first time last night. I think because I'm a glasses wearer, I hesitate to use masks that often {though ideally, I would like to use one at least once a week} - sometimes the thought of either being sightless for a measure of time or dealing with the mess of getting the mask on my glasses is just more trouble than it's worth to me {though I'll freely, yet shamefully, admit that this may be a touch of laziness on my part; it's not a good trait but I'm working on it}.
