So Useful, I Had To Keep Them!-AKA: Scotch-Brite Botanical Disinfecting Wipes

I put these bad boys to good use as soon as I received them!

 If you are a parent with school aged children, you know that back to school supplies are no longer limited to just what your student needs for class. Often times parents are also asked to contribute supplies to help keep classrooms and common areas clean for everyone. In fact, Pey's supply list included paper towels, facial tissues, and baby wipes. Don't judge me. I fully intended on being super mom and donating these wipes to Pey's class when I got them. But then Kenzie made a monster mess on her high chair and we were all out of paper towels so... it was Scotch-Brite Botanical Disinfecting Wipes to the rescue! Not only are they the perfect solution for keeping classrooms germ free, they sure to come in handy at home. 

The Brits Get Lippy!-AKA: butter LONDON Lippy Autumn/Winter 2012 Collection

I'm all about butter LONDON lately (I'm currently wearing Bossy Boots-a light pistachio creme, and Rosie Lee- gorgeous rose gold glitter, on my nails), so I'm loving everything they have coming out for the fall.

Classic Smokey Eye With Rimmel London-AKA: Give Good Face

Classic Smokey Eye With Rimmel London by mamafashionist1 featuring rimmel lipstick

Rimmel London originated with perfumer Eugene Rimmel, whose experimentation with fragrance and love of color led him to cosmetics. Upon his death in 1887 his sons took over developing the extensive range of shades and textures. Today Rimmel London creates contemporary products with a professional finish, from eyeshadow palettes and mascaras to classic khol eyeliners. 

Living Proof No Frizz System-AKA: No Frizz = The Perfect Curls

Forever on the search for the perfect curl (which ultimately means forever seeking to destroy frizz), I was happy to try out Living Proof's No Frizz system.  It's a new line of hair care products, guaranteed to beat frizz. I deal will year long, humidity induced frizziness, but it's at its height during the warm summer months. All the poking and prodding and soothing we do to battle both humidity and friction tends to take a toll on our hair. Living Proof seeks to offer a solution

Testing Testing Reviva Labs- AKA: Help! My Skin Is Rebelling!

So yeah... my skin hates me right now. I literally went months without a single blemish, to sprouting big, ugly, painful pimples (that will likely leave scars), one right after the other (and at the moment-several simultaneously). I'm pretty sure it's because I've not been treating it so well lately (ie: the brush head on my Clarisonic needs to be replaced so I haven't been using it, which translated to me not even bothering to get out of bed at night to wash my face, I've just been using various cleansing cloths to get the job done). So I need an intervention, a fresh start. I thought I'd start it out with these two exfoliants from Reviva Labs (I'm hoping that if I get rid of the top layers of skin that hate me, the fresh new layers will be my best friend). Let's call this my mea culpa.
