I have to tell you about this Foxbrim Orange Blossom Water Toner, it is awesome and you MUST – BUY – IT! I am a voracious online shopper and stumbled on this product by accident. I have become a little obsessed with looking through Amazon for beauty and skincare products. There are items on their website that I can’t find in department or drug stores and they have hugely positive reviews. This toner is one such example.
I was amazed at the number of positive reviews – 555 reviews and 94% of those rated this product at five stars and 5% of people gave this product 4 stars. The products has many claims which include:
- Amazing skin healing and nourishing properties: Stimulates healing and skin regeneration.
- Balances PH with natural acidity and provides skin moisture.
- Safe and effective for all skin types. Perfect for those with sensitive skin and those with acne prone skin will benefit from the astringent and anti-inflammatory properties.
After using this product for several weeks I can’t recommend it enough. Personally I have noticed decreased pore size, my skin feels softer and my skin tone appears more balances. I also enjoy how this product makes my skin feel clean without being overly drying. One last thing to note is that this toner has a refreshing orange-clementine scent. I love it, however if you are not a citrus-scent kind of a person then you might not be a fan of the fragrance.
Definitely amazing and definitely worth trying.
Eggless Caramel Ice Cream. I created this delicious concoction by accident and I am so glad my ingredients were lacking that day because I just love how this creamy dessert turned out.
Every time I go to Costco I buy Half & Half. Mainly because I hate to use cream and sometimes I just can’t make a sauce work with just milk. I also love it because you can get a half gallon of half & half at Costco for something ridiculously cheap like $3. The dilemma I face is that I hate to waste and I just don’t use very much half & half. Many times I end up dumping much of it down the drain, which I just hate to do. I have found a solution to my quandary…
I love Kat Von D’s Tattoo Eyeliner. It is definitely one of my holy grail products that I always have on hand. However, as with all high end department store products I try, I always like to attempt to see if I an find a more reasonable drugstore dupe. This Kat Von D Tattoo Eyeliner, which retails for $19 was no different.
The Kat Von D formula is great, it doesn’t smudge, stays put all day, yet still comes off easily with eye makeup remover. My favorite part of this high-end liner is the super fine brush applicator. Whether you want a very thin, dainty line or a dramatic cat eye, this eyeliner will complete the look flawlessly every time.
Enter the dupe…meet the Maybelline Precision Eyeliner, which retails for $4.79 . The similarities are quite remarkable. Here is my breakdown:
Have you ever ate a whole lot of something and then found yourself feeling bloated and guilty? I have, plenty of times. However, I ate a ton of these Fudgy Quadruple Chocolate Chip “Brookies” (brownie + cookie = brookie) and they were so good, I concluded that they were totally worth it.
If you love chocolate, you have to try these cookies. I almost think they should be called, “brookies” since they are a cross between a brownie and a cookie. There are four different types of chocolate that go into these little gems and they are oh so decadent. Again, if you love chocolate you must try these.
*Warning – consumption of these may cause permanent damage to your skinny jeans.
Here are links to some great tips, tricks and new things to try this week. Check them out!
1. I LOVE Proseco and Sparking wine in general. My favorite is La Marca which I can get for about $11 at Costco and there is a new Kirkland Proseco that is only $7 a bottle. Both are delicious and so wallet friendly, however I was intrigued by this article from the Rachel Ray website highlighting the five best sparkling wines under $15. Click here for the article.
2. I know that Mason Jar Salads are all over Pinterest and they are super fab, but this article featuring 5 Mason Jar Desserts has given me a new outlook (and love for) these trusty containers.
3. Eight Sunscreens That Actually Smell Delicious: I read this and immediately felt like I needed to pass this along. As I am getting older I am doing everything I can to preserve the skin I have. Sunscreen is a must and if I can find some that smell yummy as well – then that is a bonus.
4. Summer Bucket List: This article I found on LaurenConrad.com has inspired me to create a list of things I want to create this summer. I love their fun and inspiring list and am working on my own summer bucket list.
5. Lazy Girl Sweet & Spicy Lime Chicken: This recipe looks amazing and I can’t wait to try it. Also, I have to add that I love the name – “Lazy Girl” totally roped me in.
