Get Ready For Sandal Season with Tree Hut Natural Foot Care #NaturalBeauty

May 15, 2013 By 11 Comments

This post brought to you by Tree Hut. All opinions are 100% mine.

It is officially sandal season! Tree Hut has some amazing natural beauty products that will have your feet feeling soft and looking pretty. I was lucky enough to receive several of the new hand and foot care products for my review.

My feet were happy to come out of winter hibernation, especially to an at-home spa treatment with Tree Hut foot scrub. First, I soaked my feet in a warm bath and then used Tree Hut Exfoliating Foot Scrub with Natural Peppermint Oil and Sugar. This foot scrub uses real sugar to naturally exfoliate dry, rough skin. The smell of Peppermint oil is a refreshing wake-up call to me and my tired feet, plus it moisturizes skin.  [Read more...]

Keep Calm, Let Your Hair Grow, and Get Your Groove On! Uses for Ylang Ylang Oil

ylang ylang essential oil uses

Ylang Ylang oil comes from the small flowers of a very tall tropical tree. It has an exotic sensual fragrance that is very nice, but can be a bit strong. I have learned to be careful to use ylang ylang oil sparingly. A little goes a long way in the fragrance department.

Ylang Ylang oil is popular in aromatherapy because it acts as a natural sedative for the nervous system to relieve anxiety and insomnia. This oil also provides numerous health benefits including normalizing blood pressure, helping your body detoxify, and promoting thick hair growth. [Read more...]

I was really excited to open up the box and find a beautiful red Technique 3 quart, 11″ lightweight cast iron everyday pan. I love the color red in my kitchen, and I love to cook with cast iron because of how evenly it heats to cook our food.

The Magisto App Makes Movie Magic For Me! #MagistoMoms

May 13, 2013 By 4 Comments

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Magisto. I received a promotional code for premium features to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.

I use my smartphone to take pictures and brief videos all the time. Even though I share my phone’s photos with family and friends (and all of my blog readers!), I never really do anything with the videos on my phone. My videos are usually so short that they seem sort of pointless. Plus, it takes me forever to edit video clips into movies, so I usually decide it simply is not worth my time.

Enter Magisto!

My attitude towards my phone’s videos has done a 180, thanks to an app called Magisto.

Magisto is this amazing, awesome video creation app that you simply must add to your devices. [Read more...]

Add Missouri to Your Vacation Bucket List!

May 11, 2013 By 6 Comments

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Missouri Department of Tourism for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Which state has 51 State Parks, 5 Major professional sports teams, 100+ wineries, and some of the best barbeque in the world? If you said “Missouri,” then you are about ten steps ahead of me because I never would have guessed it…but it is all true! The “Show Me” State has a TON of amazing destinations, activities and attractions to show us all.

My family loves a great road trip – and we need to add Missouri to our vacation bucket list! In fact, it may take us quite a few trips to Missouri to do and see everything we want.

Missouri is a great destination for anyone who loves The Great Outdoors. There are trails for hiking and biking, lakes for fishing, caves for exploring, rivers for floating and even the world’s largest freshwater scuba diving resort (Bonne Terre Mine). And that is not all! [Read more...]
