I received their Bye Bye Chill Mist for Face, Body, and Hair.  It's a new product that retails for $18 and it is a refreshing mist of coconut water.  With each spray, you get a burst of antioxidants and minerals plus aromatherapy to help you relax.  You can use this refreshing spray anytime you want whether it's at home or on the go.  You can choose from their two scents: Natural Paradise or Natural Passion.   Also, you can use it over makeup, or refrigerate it and use it for a chilly effect! I LOVE the size and weight of the aerosol can.  It was very convenient to pack up and take with me and I loved how much it calmed me down and soothed my skin throughout the day. I found myself using it at work and even at home!

It's amazing to me that such a luxurious product was never even in my head before, let alone in my makeup bag! All that has changed now!

Litey Leash - A Safe Idea for Pet & Owner {{Review}}

This site has affiliate links and sponsored content. Read my Disclosure Policy.

The early dark of Winter may be over, but that won't stop your pooch from having to go to the bathroom at all hours of the day or night.  Especially in Summer, it's fun to be outside and go on walks, and the big danger in that is dealing with cars that may not see you OR your pooch as the sun goes down.  That's why Litey Leash was created!

The Litey Leash is an illuminated leash that runs on three AAA batteries.  It's 5-feet long and it makes you and your pooch visible from up to a quarter mile away.  You just push a little button to turn it on, and don't fear wasting the battery because there's an automatic shut-off feature after 20 minutes.  And the Litey Leash is super strong because it's made of reinforced nylon and it's designed for dogs up to 90 lbs. 

I received a Litey Leash in Hot Tamale Red.  I love it and it's perfect for my Chihuahuas.  There are no street lights on my road and sometimes cars come around the corner before I even have time to notice them, so it's a big pain in the rear end for me to take my dogs out once it's dark.  The glow didn't bother my pup's eyes at all, actually they barely even noticed.  And of course it didn't bother me but it did turn some heads because it's so fashionable and different!

This is a must have for anyone that has a dog that goes outside at night for walks or to use the potty!

MakeUpMiser Review - Get Every Last Drop out of your Beauty Products

This site has affiliate links and sponsored content. Read my Disclosure Policy.

Have you head of the MakeUpMiser?  Well, let me introduce you to this great beauty tool.  It's an ergonomically designed, flexible makeup spatula that enables you to reach down into the bottom of your cosmetic product and use every last drop.  Let's be honest, with the price of high quality luxury creams, powders, and lotions, every last scrape gives you an extra day or two of product!  The MakeUpMiser comes in different sizes so that it can fit even small containers!  The MakeUpMiser also helps control bacterial growth in cosmetic products, so it's a win-win no matter how you look at it. You can actually get 20% more use of your product!

The MakeUpMiser was created by Michelle Phillips, who happens to be located in Lancaster, PA which is just a short drive from me.  Not only is she a mother, wife, and businesswoman, but she's a cosmetic entrepreneur!  She's created such a helpful product that will benefit women everywhere.   The idea came to Michelle while she was managing an exclusive Medical Day Spa and she was exposed to everyday clientele.  They often complained about not being able to gain access to the bottom of the creams and lotions so she knew she needed to think of a solution.  Although it took much trial and error,  Michelle has finally found a great solution and her makeup spatulas have even been featured on The Today Show! 

I received a sample of the MakeUpMiser from Michelle and I must say, these gave me at least an extra weeks worth of my favorite cream, 2 weeks worth of my foundation, and has finally allowed me to stop using annoying (and useless) Q-tips to salvage the remainder of my makeup products.   I was relieved that I didn't have to scrape with my own fingers, which does nothing but create an impossible to remove buildup of foundation and concealer underneath my fingernails!

You really have no idea how much product is left at the bottom of a jar, just because the pump stops delivering it.  I was so surprised and I can't even imagine how much product I've wasted over the years because I never knew MakeUpMiser existed.

If you are from PA like I am, be sure to show Michelle some support and buy her product.  Spread the word to women everywhere because I gurantee you EVERYONE will benefit from this. 


Make sure you check out Michelle's page on Facebook and follow her on Twitter!

Racor Home Storage Solutions Review

This site has affiliate links and sponsored content. Read my Disclosure Policy.
When it comes to keeping my house clean and organized, the garage is the biggest challenge.  With 2 cars parked inside, it seems like there is never enough room to store everything else in a neat and tidy fashion, so that's why I need Racor in my life.  Racor is a line of Home Storage Solutions that will make life much easier, starting with your garage.  From bike racks, to storage hooks and other garage organization methods, Racor has high quality products that are guranteed to make a difference the moment you install them! 

Their line of storage hooks come in handy for ladders, brooms, shovels, and other bulky items that need to be kept off the ground but not just shoved into a corner.  Plus, we all have learned by now that when you keep several tall items leaning in one part of the garage, there will always be atleast one time when you run into them and they ALL fall down!  

 

I received a Small J-Hook, Ladder  Hook, Extended U-Hook, Large J-Hook, and small U-Hook from Racor and I am quite pleased with how easy they were to install and how effective they are when it comes to keeping my garage organized and clean.  The only thing needed to install these was a screw driver and they were flexible enough to be inserted securely into drywall!

The Small J-Hook is good for backpacks, coats, skates, or golf bags.  It's small enough to not get in the way, but sturdy enough to hold even the heaviest gym bag! It's welded from steel and wire so there's no fear of it ever snapping.

The Ladder Hook is ideal for ladders, or large hoses. The long hooks allow you to store multiple items, whether it's an extension ladder and a painting ladder, or just several hoses.   

The Extended U-Hook is perfect for lawn chairs and garden tools and it's a great way to keep your electrical cords from getting tangled up by laying in a pile.   It's also a conveniently shorter size. 

The Large J-Hook is not bulky, but has a deep J shape which is ideal for chairs, leaf blowers, and sleds.  I used it for leaf blowers and sleds and it really held them sturdily and was very easy to install of course.

And the Small U-Hook is perfect for brooms, shovels, step ladders, and any long handled tools.  This is great for keeping them off the ground and out of the way, but I also really enjoyed how short the hooks were so that they weren't sticking way out when I walked by them, yet they still held just as much stuff.

Definitely check out Racor for ALL of your garage home storage needs!

Great Spring Dresses I Found at Target

This site has affiliate links and sponsored content. Read my Disclosure Policy.


The reason I love Target so much is because they are always up to date with the latest fashion trends, yet I never cringe at their prices, so it's a win-win for me! 

This Spring, it's important to have a couple different dresses to choose from when it comes to occassions such as: Birthday parties, bridal showers, Mother's Day/Father's Day outings, church, and Graduation parties. 

Floral print dresses are a hot new trend and it's a great print on a dress especially in Spring and Summer.  Regardless of what style the dress is, floral print will look great on so many different body types. Target has them for just under $30 in all different styles of dress. 

Lace overlay dresses are great for a formal event such as an outdoor wedding, where you want something in a bright color but you don't want to sacrifice comfort.  They come in all different colors and are light and breathable so even if you are sitting in the sun, you won't suffer!

Target also has a great Wear To Work selection that is office-appropriate and very classy.  Choose from any of the hot colors and ensure that you will look your best and work even harder to get that promotion in your office!

Colorful and Conveniently Healthy with safeHands {{Review}}

This site has affiliate links and sponsored content. Read my Disclosure Policy.

safeHands is a fabulous way to ensure that the dirty germs that are all around us, will never be enough to run you down.  Whether it’s out in public, or even in your own home, sometimes there are germs that we aren’t even aware of and before too long, we end up catching a nasty illness.  It’s important to make handwashing part of your routine but let’s be honest, there isn’t a sink every 10 feet in this world.  That’s why safeHands Classic line and safeSquirts children line is the best idea for everyone.  They are hand sanitizers with a moisturizer that are a liquid, but come out as a foam.  They prevent your hands from drying out, they won’t burn your skin, and they come in fabulous scents!   I prefer to use alcohol-free products so this was right up my alley. 

safeHands was actually developed after much scientific research and clinical studies.  In fact, safeHands is the safest and most efficient alcohol free hand sanitizer to fight germs AND soothe your hands at the same time.  The main disinfecting ingredient is Benzalkonium Chloride which is actually a safe ingredient that comes from plants.   And since there is no alcohol in safeHands, you will actually have less of a chance of bacteria on your hands.  Dry skin actually causes bacteria which can allow your hands to become recontaminated even after you just disinfected them!  Then you have to apply even more disinfectant, and it’s a vicious cycle.  Even in the summer, my hands get dry so this is a huge selling point for me when it comes to a hand sanitizer!

I received Clean Linen, Cucumber Mint, and Fragrance Free from the classic line and Bubble Gum, Cool Blue, and Tooty Fruity from the childrens line.  Every single one of these fragrances was amazing.  I especially love how colorful each one is.  One squirt was all I needed and the best part was there was no runny mess.  I also had plenty to cover both of my hands entirely.  They have a pleasantly light smell that is not overpowering and doesn’t stick around on your hands to irritate you later if you happen to eat something with your fingers or rub your eyes.  Another thing I really liked was that they are the perfect size to keep in a desk drawer, a center console, a gym bag, a purse, or even in a child’s backpack.   Remember, because it’s alcohol free it’s safer for children because it’s not flammable and hasn’t been banned like alcohol-based products have been for poisonings and mis-use.  Your kids can handle food after using safeHands and it won’t tarnish floors or surfaces if they happen to spill it

I have tried each scent, and although I’ve been using them on a steady basis, there is still so much left in the bottles!!  I firmly stand behind safeHands and can say that I feel not only more comfortable when I use it, but more confident about my ability to stay healthy!  

I received a sample of the above product in exchange for review, however all opinions above are that of my own.

My Happiness Project - April - Lighten Up

photo by caucas	via PhotoRee

My Happiness Project goal for April is to Lighten Up.  This is perfect for me because while I pretty much have no negative, stressful things in my life, I still need to conquer any anxiety or negative thoughts I may ever have.  I am determined to train my brain to be able to kick them out the second they come about! 

Ways I will do this are:
1. Take my own advice
2. Be realistic!!
3. Give myself more credit

1. Take my own advice.
Hello!! I run an advice blog.  I can literally give people advice that ends up working, but yet I sometimes struggle to accept, believe, and take my own advice.  I WILL start taking my own advice, even if it means I have to write in to my blog and then respond to myself!


2.  Be Realistic.
The second I begin to second guess or doubt anything in my life, I will realistically look back at my past and how successful things have always ended up working out the way I want them.  So why would it be any differen this time?  This will especially come in handy with my relationship!


3. Give myself more credit.
I have done a great job up to this point, or else I would not be where I am or be as happy as I am.  If I made it this far, than I need to convince myself I should never worry that I can't keep making good decisions and that things will keep going my way.


Check back at the end of the month to see how I reached my goal!
