Pure Garcinia/Cleanse ADVANCED Weight Loss Kit - REVIEW


The holiday season is upon us, which means the family dinners and Christmas treats are inevitable. I was excited to give this Diet Kit a try to see if it would help me avoid the "Santa buldge". The pack included 2 products called Slender Cleanser ADVANCED and Garcinia Cambogia ADVANCED. 

SLENDER CLEANSER:
15 day detox cleanse
Serving - 2 veggie capsules
Servings per bottle - 30

GARCINIA CAMBOGIA:
Burns fat for energy
Boosts energy and mood naturally
Reduces apatite 
Serving - 2 capsules
Servings per bottle - 30

I started taking one of each supplement for the first 2 days just to see how my body would handle it and to make sure I had no allergies to any of the ingredients. I had no problems and increased my regimen to 2 capsules/day by the 3rd day. I noticed a decrease in apatite right away, which is wonderful because it keep me from snacking or "grazing" all day! The cleanse definitely cleans and detoxes your system the first few days but that goes away once your body adjusts. I also notices a slight increase in energy, but not the jittery feeling you get with some products. After 12 days of consistent use I had lost 6 pounds, so I was extremely impressed with the results. I am almost to the end of my 15 day cleanse and will update my results later on.

Tribetaler Portable Electronic Luggage Scale REVIEW


I received this luggage scale while in the process of planning a family vacation. I'm an over planner and want to know the cost of the entire trip before we leave. Unexpected expenses like additional luggage fees can add up quick and make well budgeted trip become costly. Having a luggage scale handy will keep our over packing in check! (Maybe) 

The Tribetailer scale was very easy to use. It measure in lbs. or Kg and has automatic calibration. You just attach the sturdy strap to your luggage and hold (steady) on to the handle. I had no problem at all setting it to lbs and getting an accurate weight. It's also easily portable and light weight making it handy for any trip! 

Runs on lithium battery which is included. 
We give it two thumbs up!

Exfoliating Scrub for Men by Valentia REVIEW


Product Review

This is a skincare product from the Valentia line especially designed for men. I was excited to have my husband and 15 year old son test this product out. My son has been experiencing teenage acne across his forehead and we've tried a gazillion other things that really haven't helped much. My husband is 42 and beginning to show some aging. So I signed them up for a trial! 


What we thought:

  • By the second day of using the scrub my son's acne was noticeably better. It had dried up almost all of it by the 4th day. He's already asking for more. 
  • Has natural oils and moisturizers so it didn't cause skin to be dry or irritated.
  • Made my husband's face feels so much smoother after removing the dead skin and deep cleaned pores. 
  • The scrub smelled great, with a very clean scent!
  • It was packaged perfectly for men. 
  • Comes in a large 4oz. jar that is a good deal for the price. 

This Product is also: 
Made in the USA
Cruelty Free
Vegan Friendly 
98% Natural Ingredients

We give this Two Thumbs up!

Luxe Beauty Product Review


No Falsies Here
I've found a product that is actually helping my lashes grow! I recently had the opportunity to try out the Luxe Beauty Lashes Eyelash Growth Serum with peptides. I must say that I'm pretty impressed with the results. 

I've been using this product for about 10 days and here are a few of the benefits that I love:
  • It moisturizes and nourishes the lashes. I have had a problem with brittle lashes that break off or fall out anytime I apply eye makeup or rub my eye. I have not seen this since using this product. My lashes feel soft and healthier over all. 
  • Its clear (not white) so it goes on without causing mascara to cake up if you use it right after. I just put it on and wait a minute or 2 before applying my regular makeup. I also use it again before bed.
  • It comes in fancy tube with a mirror on the side so its handy to apply anywhere you are.  I left it on my nightstand before bed and didn't have to get up to go to a mirror to see what I was doing. 

Note: be careful not to get it directly in the eye, it does burn a little when that happens.  

Overall I give this product 2 thumbs up!! 
You can order this product for yourself on Amazon. If you want longer, thicker lashes, I suggest you give it a try. You can order yours HERE! **Use promotion code 48PGMV3E and save 20% off your purchase.** 

**I received this product free of charge for testing and review purposes. All opinions are unbiased and 100% my own.

Fall Favorites


Fall is one of my favorite times of year. It's when we start to see bonfires, jeans, hoodies, parades, festivals, football, and more! I love everything about it, including the decorating, cooking, and Halloween. Although it was hard to narrow these down, I've comprised a list of some of my "Fall Favorites" that I think you'll enjoy! 

1. Caramel Apples - nothing says fall like the sweet goodness of a crunchy apple covered in creamy caramel and toppings! 
See Recipe here: http://www.recipe.com/caramel-apples-1

2. Pumpkin Decorating - One of the times you can let your creative juices flow. There is no wrong way to decorate them. From carving to painting, there is something everyone can do when it comes to fancying up those pumpkins. 


3. Fall Fashion - Cool days and brisk nights let us know that its time to bring out the jeans and hoodies. You can finally put the skin revealing summer clothes away and cuddle up in your old sweater, or throw on a scarf to pull an outfit together. 


4. Hayrides - Fall is the best time to hop on a trailer lined with hay, being pulled by a tractor to take a tour through scenic fields and orchards. 


5. Haunted Houses - They are as exhilarating as they are terrifying. Like a mental roller coaster that leaves you wanting more.


6. Fall Football - Who doesn't  love gameday, tailgating, and the spirit of rallying teams. Football games are great family time too.


7. Corn Mazes - Loads of family fun you can make a day of. Its amazing how they come up with such detailed designs that can be seen from the sky. Most corn mazes also have pumpkin patches and animals or other attractions. 


8. Fall Foods - Chili, vegetable soup, pumpkin pie, hot wings! My mouth is drooling just thinking about all the fall foods that come to mind! Too much deliciousness to pick a favorite! 


9. Bonfires - Throw on that hoodie and get out the marshmallows, it's time to roast hot dogs and s'mores! 


10. Fall Festivals - We have them all over here in Missouri. Pumpkin Fests, Apple Fests, Turkey Fests, and even the annual Testicle Festival (you read that right). All with good food, family, and friends. 

What kind of festivals do you have in your area? Leave me a comment below!

Dad Creates a Class to Help Other Fathers Learn How to Do Hair

I created a Dads and Daughters hair class to help other fathers learn about doing hair.
We had a small class full of dads that learned basic brushing, ponytails, braids and buns.
The turnout was great! I'm so proud of these dads for stepping up and building a better
bond with their daughters. -Philippe Morgese
Dad and daughter relationships are perhaps the most sweet of them all, and what better way for a daddy to bond with his little girl than to learn how to do her hair?
Though the idea of doing his daughter's hair may seem daunting for some dads, Philippe Morgese, a single dad from Daytona, FL, decided to put together a class for other dads to learn a few tricks of the trade — from basic brushing to buns.
The turnout was great, and Morgese says he was happy with the way the class went: "I'm so proud of those that showed up and tried their best . . . You guys rocked it! I can't express that enough." Not only was this first run a success, but he's planning the next one, and he has decided to keep them all small so the dads can really benefit from one-on-one help.
Rock those hairdos, dads!
