NIVEA A Kiss of Olive & Lemon Moisture Rich Lip Care Review & A Giveaway Too!

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

Aimee Fontenot #3478!!

Profile Picture

I have always loved Nivea. From the lotions to the lip balms, just love Nivea! When I was a teenager I would always use the Nivea firming lotion and have not steered away from it since. Nivea hydrates my skin and keeps it totally soft and nice feeling.

Nivea has a brand new addition to its lip care assortment, it is the NIVEA A Kiss of Olive & Lemon Moisture Rich Lip Care and have to say I am very impressed, yet again, with Nivea products. First thing I want to say about this lip care is the tube it comes in. Very pretty colored green and (this might sound weird!) but I like the way the tube feels in my hand.. Ya, I am weird, LOL..

Anyways, taking off the lid I LOVED the green colored balm!! Very pretty color (like the outside tube!) and the scent reminds me of that Johnson & Johnson Naturals baby lotion.. Funny how I remembered the scent of that stuff, but that is how it smells to me, REALLY good!  This lip balm soothes and nourishes your lips to help them look and feel their kissable best.  Its hydrating formula is enhanced with natural olive oil and lemon extract to help heal and soothe even the driest of lips. This is one lip care product you won’t want to leave at home!

It is buttery and smoothes nicely onto my lips leaving them very soft and a bit shiny (due to the olive oil I am guessing). Of course it does not taste good (at all) but then that is good, because I won’t be licking my lips all day long and having to reapply this lip care balm. It lasts longer that way ;) Also, I love the scent of this stuff, like I said earlier, and having it under my nose all day? Ya, I like that! Smells very clean and good. All in all, this is a great lip care balm!

Now, after telling you all of the above, you also need to know that I am CRAZY obsessed with a good lip balm. You think you CAN’T be addicted to lip balm? Think again, YOU CAN and I AM! I am so dang addicted to this stuff, I sleep with it under my pillow.. Yep, I do! I also have one in my purse, in my bathroom, kitchen and by my laptop…

Okay, now that you all know my secret obsession with lip balm, and where I keep it, it is time for that giveaway! But first, I want you all to visit Nivea’s Facebook Page, give them a like (IF you want to) and check out their Million Moments of Touch date night giveaways!!!!

Win

One lucky person is going to win five full-sized samples of this new lip care along with a $50 Visa gift card ($60 value in total)!!

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

Katie White #578!!

 

Yep, the title is short and sweet and to the point. This is a Carmex giveaway for YOU!

I am a part of the wonderful Carmex Blog Squad, so I get to try out things for them and share them with you all. Fun right? I think so…

I received:

I got this in the mail right before I went to Disneyland, so it could not have come at a better time! We brought the goodies with us. We went to the beach, and the picnic blanket is awesome! It is fuzzy and comfy on the side you sit on. The size is great too. Both my kids easily sat on this together and ME!!!

 

The Carmex Lime and Vanilla click sticks are great. They both keep my lips soft and smooth and they do not irritate my lips. I have sensitive lips, so I have to be real careful. I am  extremely picky about my lip balms, but Carmex is one of the few I can and will use on my lips. And, it is totally cool that Carmex donates their proceeds from every sale, from their Carmex Store, to the Petfinder.com Foundation!

Neutrogena New Products Review

With Winter behind us and Spring here, hopefully our weather will start to get better! With Spring is new changes and fresh beginnings! Neutrogena has introduced its newest products for  Spring!

I had the opportunity to try them out and put them to the test. I received Neutrogena Healthy Skin Compact Foundation with SPF of 55! I also received Neutrogena revitalizing Lip Balm SPF 20 and Neutrogena Healthy Skin Custom Glow Bronzer.

The Healthy Skin Compact Foundation with SPF 55 is neat. It comes in a compact with a mirror and a little spongy applicator. It glides on nicely and stays put all day for me. I like that it has a sponge applicator and a mirror for on the go application or touch ups. I also love that it has SPF 55 in it. Good to know my face is being protected while looking great! The only thing I did not really like was that it was kind of dry on my face and settled a bit into my creases and pores. So, I just added a bit of my daily moisturizer on top of my foundation and it made it flawless! This is the first Neutrogena cosmetic to contain the patented Helioplex technology which offers the highest level of broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) protection. It is also infused with antioxidants that leave your skin well nourished. It is oil-free and comes in 8 beautiful shades!

The Neutrogena revitalizing Lip Balm is very moisturizing and made my lips feel soft and moist. I am a big lip balm fan, and this one passed the test with me. This is a tinted lip balm that promises to restore lips definition and rosiness in just one week. This lip balm comes in 6 different shades.

Last but not least, the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Custom Glow Bronzer. If you are looking for a nice subtle warm glow, I definitely recommend this bronzer. It goes on nicely and  you can add a little or a lot. I use this on my forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. It makes me look more healthy and gives my face a nice golden glow without looking like a pumpkin. It comes with a brush which is nice for on the go. This bronzer is infused with light reflecting pearls that help make your skin look luminous and beautiful.

All in all, the new products are great. Great for the warmer weather, because they do contain the SPF. But, it is also a good idea to wear SPF all year long :)

Buy It!

“Can You Get Hooked On Lip Balm?” & Giveaway!

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

corey #20!!

Geri #2!!

 

So, really, can you get hooked on lip balm?? Well, actually yes you can! I had the chance to review a wonderful book all about beauty and answers most of your beauty questions like the lip balm one! Love this book. A lot of questions I had, are now answered.

I for one am a HUGE beauty junkie and I absolutely love all my beauty products. I especially love my lip balms. I feel that I am addicted to them. I mean if you have to sleep with a lip balm under your pillow EVERY night so that you can apply it while sleeping, I think it is safe to say I am addicted to it and need it. This book, ” Can You Get Hooked On Lip Balm” does say that in a sense, yes, you can get hooked. That is because your lips are tricked into thinking that your lips are not dry and so they don’t shed that skin. When you don’t apply lip balm, your lips realize that your lips ARE dry and that that skin does need to be shed, so they start to shed it. But, if you reapply the lip balm, then your lips are tricked again into thinking it is not necessary to shed the dry skin. Make sense? It does to me and if you read the book it will make more sense too.

This book is not just about makeup though, it has answers for other things too, like how to cure warts with duct tape or will hair dye give you cancer or do curling shampoos really work? I LOVE this book, it has so much wisdom in it and I have already read the whole thing in one night. Yep, like it that much!

From the creators of TheBeautyBrains.com, they bring you this book! This book is filled with questions about lotions, potions and other beauty products you use everyday! And your questions are answered by top cosmetic scientists :)

So, if you want to know more about maybe why do your nails turn yellow when you wear nail polish or do pore strips really work?? (they do!!) Then this book is for you, or any beauty junkie :)

Blamtastic Lip Balm Review & Giveaway!

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

Jake B #14!!

Move the heck over, Bonnebell, there is a new lip balm in town!!!! Blamtastic was created by kids for kids! How fun is that! Blam lip balm also does not have any of the yucky bad stuff in it. It only has the good stuff. That’s all we need anyways, right? Blamtastic lip balm also tastes really good, just ask my daughter.. sigh. It smells delicious too, so that is also a great thing :)

Blamtastic does not test on those little furry animals that we love so dang much. No petroleum, it is made in the USA, no parabens, has factor 15 in it, and here is what it DOES have in it:

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Beeswax, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Octinoxate (7.5%), Oxybenzone (3%), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Sweetener, Tocopherol (Vitamin E) with a little color for fun.

I received a sample pack of these deliciously scented and tasting lip balms and love them all. They don’t dry out my lips, they keep them soft and supple. My little girl, who is 3, LOVES the orange Frenetic Fizz one!! She will NOT let anyone touch it but her. Takes after her Mama, I suppose :)

Blamtastic is not only really good lip balm, but really cool too! They have guys and girls lip balms! So, they guys don’t have to feel girly using their blamtastic lip balms! Love that! Oh, and I just can’t forget to tell you about the accessories for the Blamtastic lip balms! They have their own sleeves (cozys) :) You know, like you use for your can of soda? Ya that!

The Carmex® Healing Skin Care Review & Giveaway!!!

CONTEST IS OVER! CONGRATS TO RENEE COMMENT #69!!


I have liked Carmex for as long as I can remember. I always had a Carmex lip balm in my purse or on my nightstand. So, I was super excited when I was able to be a Carmex Blog Squad Reviewer!! I already know and love the products, so why not make me an official Blog Squad Reviewer? Love it!

I received some wonderful goodies from Carmex several weeks ago. Carmex did not disappoint! Oh my goodness!! I received an adorable bag filled with wonderful things!

Take a peek…

Pretty neat, huh?!

I love everything I got and feel so pampered using it. I always get excited when I get to review beauty/skin care items :) The lip balm is, as always, amazing. It keeps my lips smooth and soft and I love the little tingle of mint that it leaves on my lips. The healing lotion is great for my rougher areas like my knees, elbows and feet! It almost instantly softens those areas and make them feel moisturized and nice! The Healing Creme does the same as the Healing Lotion, but is a bit thicker. I use both, alternating on my rough areas. And, I can’t leave out those Carmex pots of lip balm! Those are great for traveling and just throwing in your bag or purse! Love ‘em!

Buy Carmex!

eos Shaving Cream and Lip Balm Review!

eos

“eos fits a woman’s sense of style and also lets her have fun in the process of getting more beautiful”

Everything about eos from their ingredients to their unique packaging, is so wonderful! I contacted eos in hopes of reviewing for them. They said yes, and so I was very happy! I received the eos Lip Balm and Shave Cream to review.

The packaging is indeed, unique. I love it! Easy to hold and soft and smooth feeling in my hands (the packaging). I received the lip balm in honeysuckle honeydew!! The lip balm is in a round, soft and smooth container. You just unscrew the lid and inside is a round mound of the most deliciously scented and moisturized lip balm ever, just waiting to be put on your lips! This lip balm not only has a unique container it comes in, but it is also just a wonderful lip balm. It keeps my lips very moisturized throughout the day and they taste kind of good too :) TheShave Cream is dreamy. Oh. My. Goodness. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the scent of the shave cream that I received. It is called Lavender Jasmine, and it is just seriously one of the best scents I have ever put onto my skin. The Shave Cream is very creamy, it does not lather or foam up, but goes on like lotion, completely. It provides a very smooth shave and leaves my legs soft, smooth and smelling oh so nice! Think clean laundry scent!

Some Shave Cream Features:

  • So moisturizing, you can shave wet or dry, leaving skin soft and smooth.
  • Non-foaming cream enriched with natural aloe, oat, and shea butter soothes while boosting skin’s moisture level.
  • Antioxidant vitamins E & C help skin look radiantly healthy.
  • Comes in a soft-touch recyclable bottle that won’t leave a rust ring in your tub.
  • Paraben-free (pomegranate raspberry, vanilla bliss, lavender jasmine and cucumber aloe).

Is it bad to say that I also use this as body lotion on my body? LOL, because I DO! I am not sure if you are suppose to, but I do, and I have not noticed anything different from other body lotions, so I will continue to shave AND moisturize with this wonderful Shave Cream! So glad that I found it :)

Lip Balm Features:

  • Long-lasting moisture
  • Shea butter & vitamin E
  • Smoothes on clear
  • New smooth sphere precisely glides on to lips
  • Twist-off top
  • Gluten-free
  • Paraben-free
  • Petrolatum-free
  • Phthalate-free

eos lip balm is 95% organic, 100% natural, and paraben and petrolatum free. Packed with antioxidant-rich vitamin E, soothing shea butter and jojoba oil, eos keeps your lips moist, soft and sensationally smooth.
