AVEENO® NOURISH DANDRUFF CONTROL

 I like the Aveeno dandruff product as compared to the other dandruff shampoo I've previously used. If you want to try it be sure look pretty good in the shampoo aisle because it was a little difficult for me to spot on the shelf. Seemed to almost be camouflaged by the bigger, brighter bottles around it.

Palmolive Soft Touch

Palmolive is Tough on Grease, Soft on Hands :) If you want to try this product, you can find it at Walmart. I received two full size bottles of Palmolive Soft Touch from Influenster (free) for the purpose of trying and reviewing. (See Influenster reviews HERE) I kept and used the Vitamin E bottle for myself and gave the Coconut Butter bottle to my daughter to try. So far, It doesn't seem to be anything spectacular or over and above any other leading brand I've used. I like the colors, the packaging, the fragrance, the feel of my hands after washing dishes. But one sinkful using this soap doesn't really seem to be washing as many dishes as my usual brand. The bubbles seem to disappear, and it doesn't really feel like there's enough left in the water to continue washing. So I tend to use more of Palmolive than my other brand, to get the same amount of dishes clean. I may or may not buy this product in the future, maybe if there's a good sale. :)

KROGER PRIVATE SELECTION UPSIDE DOWN CAKES

I was really pretty excited to find myself in the middle of this campaign. Who doesn't love cake?! We sure do! I shop at Fry's (Kroger) almost daily, so there wouldn't be a problem finding this new product, right?! Wrong. I visited my regular Fry's right away...(I said I was excited)....where I know the lady in the bakery very well. Unfortunately, the upside cakes were nowhere to be found and my friend hadn't even heard of them! I was very disappointed, but thought maybe because it was a new product, they just hadn't received it yet. I waited about a week and tried my regular store again...still no cakes! I decided to go on a little hunt. I tried two other stores in the area....nope! Never heard of the product. Because I'm at Fry's almost every day, I still check in and around the bakery in hopes that maybe they've finally received them yet. Still nothing. The campaign ends in eight days.........I have a feeling I will not be able to find and try these cakes. So disappointing!

Covergirl Blastflipstick

I received three full-sized COVERGIRL blastflipsticks (in Stunner, Vixen and Minx), free, from BzzAgent.com to try for a while and review. I love the idea, I love the ease of application, I love Covergirl. The thing I don't love is the colors. Of the three I got (six total colors), there was really only one that I could sensibly wear out of the house. The others were very bright, even when using the shimmer with them. I also did a little looking around and saw the other colors available....(you can see them here on Covergirl's site)....there are a couple colors I'd love to try, and probably will. But like I said, the colors I got were just not a match for me, my age, my style, or my skin tone :/

Torani Flavor!

New recipes are always fun to try...experimenting is a favorite thing to do around our house. When I was given the opportunity to try Torani syrups I was so excited. i received two full sized bottles for free, for sampling and review purposes from SheSpeaks...extra YAY! The two flavors I got are Vanilla Bean and Pumpkin Pie. Perfect timing with the holidays and all :) The kids and I wanted to try the syrups for different things. We used the Pumpking Pie syrup added to our pancake mix for delicious pumpkin pancakes...topped with whipped cream, of course. Not much of a "recipe", I just added about 1/8th cup of the syrup to my regular batter and it worked fabulously! For the Vanilla Bean, we made regular old vanilla shakes. A little bit of vanilla ice cream, a little bit of milk, and a little bit of Torani's Vanilla Bean syrup...Y-U-M!! There are so many other flavors, and so, so many recipes and tips on Torani's website...you should go checkit out :) Happy Holidays everyone!
