SLEEP NUMBER® m9 Bed


I went into the sleep Number Bed store this afternoon for the first time ever.  The sales people were very attentive, friendly and helpful...not pushy, as I had expected.

The representative showed me on a computer monitor where the adjustments to the air chamber would be made and explained very thoroughly how the mattress works.  I LOVED it! I even asked "What if I don't want to get up?"  He said, "Then don't", lol.  I could have stayed for a while longer.  A sleep number mattress is something I would love to have in the future.

By the way, my sleep number is 45 :)

Influenster Makeover

So by now you all know I review products that I receive for free from a couple different places. They're all amazing. But let me tell you about Influenster. It's one of my favorite places to learn about new products. I can read reviews from other Influensters, write reviews, learn where to find products and how much to expect to pay. Influenster has recently re-vamped their website. It looks amazing. I love how easy it is to navigate. It wasn't difficult before, but now it seems more organized and more user friendly. You really should look into becoming an Influenster. Since I joined, I've received two vox boxes. Vox boxes are boxes containing a grouping of about 5 to 8 products following a specified theme, that you receive free (no, there's not even a subscription fee). You try the products, review them and share your opinions with friends and family and whoever else will listen, lol. Here's a link to the site: http://www.influenster.com/ Happy reviewing :)

EBOOST

I received one sample packet of orange flavor EBOOST energy boost free in my Naturals Vox Box from Influenster. I actually kept putting off trying this one til I had the time to really try it out. I was afraid that if I used it in the morning and it made me sleepy or didn't help, or made me sick then I wouldn't be able to perform well at work. If I took it too late in the day, I was afraid it might keep me up too late at night. But the last two days I've missed out on some sleep and have had extra hours and tasks at work, so I was feeling a bit sluggish when I got home today. I decided to go ahead and try the drink -- it's Friday, no work tomorrow, and nothing planned for the rest of the day, so any adverse reactions wouldn't interfere with anything. I added a little extra water to avoid a strong flavor, as I'm not too fond of orange, lol. It wasn't too bad, but I did notice a funny after taste. I'm attributing that to the type of product it is, and letting it slide. It doesn't give a great boost of energy, like say "other" energy boosts may give, but just enough to keep me from wanting to nap. I'm noticing a slight headache, but not sure if it's from the EBOOST or just from the long work week. I also noticed the cost is a bit high...$28 for 20 packets...so $1.40 per packet. I guess it's comparable, but I'm not sure I'd go out and buy a whole box...maybe one packet at a time. All in all, the slight boost it gives, with the not so great flavor and the kinda high price, I'm not too sure I'll be purchasing this product regularly in the future. Like I said, maybe a single-serve packet if I needed it and saw it on the counter at the store as I was checking out...but not going to go out looking for it specifically. Here's a link to their products so you can check things out for yourself: EBOOST Natural Energy

SheaMoisture Baby Bar Soap

As part of my Naturals vox box from Influenster, I received a free full size bar of SheaMoisture Raw Shea, Chamomile & Argan Baby Bar Soap. I love it! The scent is great, it lathers really well, cleans well, and is a good sized bar....larger than most single bar soaps. I'm kind of anxious to try other products from Shea Moisture and will more than likely continue to buy and use this soap. Here's the link again: http://www.sheamoisture.com/

Naturals Vox Box

So I received my 2nd vox box from Influenster. It's a Natural Vox Box and included free samples of the following products: EBOOST Energy supplement, Nectresse sweetener, SheaMoisture Raw Shea, Chamomile & Argan Baby Bar Soap, LypSyl Lip Balm, CleanWell Hand Sanitizing wipes, Geodeo deodorant, and The Original Dish Drying Mat. I was so happy to see all the natural products in the review box, and happy to finally be able to try that dish drying mat! I'll follow up with the rest of the individual reviews shortly. :)

LypSyl Intense Protection LypMoisturizer

Loving my free Lypsyl lip balm that I received in my Naturals Vox Box from Influenster! I'm not normally a big lip balm or gloss fan, only because I don't like the "heavy" feeling on my lips. I was surprised to find that I don't get that feeling with this product. It goes on so smooth, and although it lasts long and and moisturizes, I don't get the heavy feeling...which I really, really love. I love the case too, and the little slider on the side...so cute! Thanks LypSyl lipbalm and Influenster for my new favorite lip balm :) Here's a link to their site: Lypsyl

The Original™ Dish Drying Mat

I was so stoked to get this product free in my recent Naturals Vox Box from Influenster! I was really hoping to get it in my very first Vox Box, but I wasn't one of the lucky ones that did...so imagine my surprise this time! I love, love, love the Dish Drying Mat! I love that I don't have to keep my big, bulky dish drainer on the counter. I love that this mat drys quickly and folds up nicely. I love that it's soft and squishy too, lol. And I'd really love to try more of the product line. This is my new favorite kitchen accessory. Here';s a link to their site: The Original's Website

CleanWell Natural Hand Sanitizer Wipes

As part of an Influenster Vox Box I received a free sample of Clean Well's sanitizing wipes. They can be used for adults and children, for faces and hands. I love that the product does not contain alcohol and will therefore NOT dry out my hands or my kids faces. I was also happy to discover I'm able to find the whole product line in a store not too far from my house. The products will definitely be on my shopping list from now on. Here's a link to their page: CleanWell

UNREAL

I WAS pretty excited to try this new product. I DID receive coupons for a free bar or bag of the regular size product from the Bzz Agent program (I'm a Bzz Agent :)), but all I've been able to find are the jumbo size bags. NOW, I seem to have misplaced the coupons, so even if I were to come across the regular sized bars/bags, I wouldn't have the coupons to use. I think I may end up going back to where I saw the jumbo bags and buy one just so I can try it. :) With the product being a better alternative for sweets, I'm really interested in trying it.
