Covergirl & Olay

So, one of my recent Bzz Campaigns is the Covergirl & Olay Campaign. I received one liquid make-up and one pressed powder make-up absolutely free for my participating in the campaign and review process. First, let me say, I was a little over anxious to try the product. I actually went and purchased the solid foundation compact before I received my Bzz Kit. I guess I'm just a little impatient sometimes, lol. Anyway, I kinda liked the solid foundation, it was smooth to apply, it seemed to moisturize my face over a short period of time, and the coverage was pretty good. The only thing I didn't like about the solid compact was that it seemed a little heavy and like my skin couldn't breathe....if that makes sense. Then I got my Bzz Kit. :) The liquid foundation is much lighter and allows my skin to breathe, lol. The application is still very smooth and coverage is good. The pressed powder was the smoothest of all, it just seems to glide on and is very light. The only thing I'm not liking about the liquid foundation is that it seems like it's being used up quicker than my normal liquid foundation. It has a pump dispenser, and one full pump is a little too much make-up, so I try to use a half pump, but it still seems like the bottle is emptying much faster than my normal make-up. I think I like it enough to continue purchasing it and replace my normal brand. If only I could figure out how to make it last longer. :/

imPRESS Press on Manicure

I received the imPress nails as a free trial in a box of goodies from Influenster. I fell in love with the packaging immediately. How cute is it to have the nails in a faux-nail polish bottle?! Adorable. There were enough nails and sizes to allow two different people a one-time use of the nails. They're fun and easy to apply and come in so many different colors.

The Many Uses of Ivory

I received a complimentary bar of ivory soap from Ivory for testing and review as part of the MomVoxBox from Influenster. I had no idea there were so many uses for this little bar of soap! You can obviously use it for washing your body and face, but did you know you could also use Ivory bar soap as a clothes stain remover, laundry flakes, and most fun of all, Ivory fluff?! We had so much fun microwaving the Ivory soap bar to make the fluff....something I never knew could be done.....safely, lol. (this is my grandson playing with the "fluff")

I've always loved using ivory soap. (Was first introduced to it as a kid, my grandparents loved it too). I love the fresh, clean feeling and scent. I love that it's not perfumey like so many other bath soaps. I also love that it's a great value and get more soap for the buck! I will definitely be buying Ivory in the future. :)

Quaker Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookies

I recently received a Quaker Soft Baked Oatmeal Raisin cookie complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster. I could barely get a bite or two off of it before having to hand it over to my son and granddaughter for their enjoyment. It was a very good cookie. I don't normally eat cookies with raisins, maybe cuz I've had in my head since I was a kid that raisins in cookies are "gross", lol. I got over it a little I think. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the cookie and wanted more right away. I'll definitely be buying them on my next trip to the grocery store, and I'm sure will continue buying them.

Be. Winery Update

I was so excited about this campaign. I've been able to work the locator fine, but like some of the other BzzAgents, I'm unable to find this product anywhere near my house in order to try and review. The closest location, according to the locator is 30+ miles away (two towns over), second nearest is almost 40 miles....then we jump from there to almost 300 miles away. Thanks for the little extras that came in the BzzKit, very cute, unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to try this product due to availability.

Be. Wines

I'm so excited that I've been selected to participate in this new Be. wine Bzz Campaign. I love the label design. it looks fresh and new. The cute little names, "Flirty", "Bright", "Radiant", "Fresh" should make it easy to pick according to mood, lol. Can't wait to get my Bzz Kit...may not. I may just need to try a glass, or bottle, this weekend. I'll be back later this month with my thoughts :)
