Look Like A Star with Starlooks

January Starbox
starlookslogo
   It’s my favorite time of the month!  My Starlooks Starbox has arrived, and once again, it is filled with great full-sized products plus a special surprise!   If you are not familiar with Starlooks, they offer a great line of high-end cosmetics and beauty products that are comparable to MAC, yet much more affordable.  All of their cosmetics are lead-free, emollient-free and cruelty-free, and are available in a huge selection of beautiful colors and shades.  Starlooks offers one of my favorite beauty box subscription services, the Starbox.   Each month you will receive a box with three or four full-sized (yep, FULL-SIZED not sample size), beauty items from the Starlooks line, and quite often, the boxes will contain some extra surprises as well!  Each monthly box will have a minimum value of at least $35, but all you will pay is $15!  In addition, each month you can go onto the Starlooks site and find a preview of that month’s box, what came in boxes over the months past and, best of all, find photographic tips on using the items in the box by visiting the Looksbook page.  You can find even more tips when you visit the Starlooks YouTube channel!

   Although what is inside the box is the most important detail, I always find that a nicely packaged box makes the entire experience that much better! January’s Starbox was beautifully put together in a green-colored box tied with a gold string.  Inside, wrapped in vibrant yellow tissue paper were 4 full sized cosmetic products (2 eye pencils, blush and a brush) along with an unexpected surprise, a fun beaded bracelet made by Abby Rose Designs!   Each Starbox revolves around a theme, and January’s theme was Eden.   I must say the bright colors used this month has me longing for gardens in Spring!
  Keep reading to see what was included in January's Starbox!

Eye Pencil in Brown $8
starlooks 014

What They Say: smooth, creamy color-saturated, smudge-proof eye liner has a gorgeous chocolate brown tint.  It can also be used as a shadow base by coloring the entire eye lid.  Can also be used inside water line of eye.
What I Say:  I love this beautiful, rich brown color!  The liner itself glides on smoothly and is easy to lightly smudge for a smoky look, but is not so soft that it smears.  I like to use it to outline my entire eye, although you can use it as an all over shadow base as well.   The color is bold and lasts a long time.

Diamondline Pencil in Fancy $8

starlooks 027

What They Say:  an ultra-smooth, creamy, waterproof eye liner with a green sparkly tint that is light enough to be mixed or paired with other liner colors.  Can also be used as a shadow base base by covering the entire eye lid.  Will mix great with the Brown Eye Liner to make an olive tone.
What I Say:  this opaque liner has a metallic finish, and glides on satiny-smooth.  It is a pretty green color with a great silvery-shimmer to it that draws attention to your eyes.   It is soft enough that it easily blends with other colors, and when mixed with the Brown eye liner above, you get a beautiful shade of olive green.   The color is long lasting, but be careful when applying since the lead is so soft.  I really like that it is waterproof, but still comes off easily when you use a gentle cleanser.

Blush in Cuty Peach $12

starlooks 040

What They Say:  a gorgeous, pure, peach toned blush that is super color saturated, so a little goes a long way.  Perfect for that Spring look.  With a tiny amount of gold pearlecense, this blush can also be used to provide a bit of highlight to the cheek bone.
What I Say:  a little bit goes a long way is exactly right!  This blush is a beautiful, Spring-like shade of peach.  It applies easily, and is so well pigmented that I only have to swipe my brush once to get enough color for both cheeks.  Since it does have just the barest hint of golden pearlecense, I love to use it to high light my cheek bones.

starlooks 044
starlooks1 007

858 Soft Small Dome Fluff Brush $15

starlooks 024

What They Say:  this brush is made from 100% pure, cruelty-free pony hair and is super soft.  Use it to blend eye shadow and eye liner for the perfect smoky effect, or use in the corner of the eyes, eye lid or under the lash line.  Also great for applying pigments or loose shadows.
What I Say:  this is an extremely soft brush that is perfect for applying eye shadow, both loose and compacted kinds.  The rounded, dome shape gives you two perfect edges to apply either a thin, detailed line, or a wide, stripe of color.  It also works well for smudging eye liner, and blending eye shadows and liners!  It is easy to clean, dries quickly, and is so well made that there are no hairs out of place or falling out.

starlooks 026

And this month’s surprise bonus item…

Abbey Rose Designs: Green Ivy Bracelet

starlooks 010

What They Say:  this handmade bracelet is available for a limited time only on both the Abbey Rose Designs and Starlooks websites for only $15!  All of their jewelry and accessories are handmade and original designs.  There is also a code provided for free shipping on anything on the Abbey Rose Designs site.
What I Say:  the Green Ivy Bracelet is actually two different strands twisted together, one with large emerald green beads and the other a strand of smaller beads in multiple shades of green.  This memory wire bracelet simply wraps around your wrist and clings with out the use of fasteners or clips (Ivy being the perfect name!)  While I am not a fan of chunky jewelry, I do like all of the different shades of green combined together to form a bright, bold Spring-like look.  It is perfect for the upcoming St. Patrick’s Day!  I have had the two strands come unwrapped, but it that was easily fixed.  I also looked around the Abbey Rose Designs site, and found tons of pretty and unique items that are very reasonably priced!

starlooks 009

In Every Box:
  As with every box, there was also a Starlooks mystic quartz crystal, the ultimate symbol of beauty that helps attract energy and maintain focus, as well as a card that includes a description of each item along with helpful tips for application.

My Verdict
   January’s Starbox was another wonderful deal filled with great products with a total value of $63.  Your price as a subscriber? $15!  Wow! An incredible deal for some great products!
   Another awesome quality about Starlooks’ Starbox is that if you find an item you fall in love with and need more, or if you want it in a different color,  you can order it separately through the Starlooks site, and do not have to pay any shipping costs as long as the order is under 10 lbs.!  You also have the option to order Starboxes from past months on the site, but you better hurry and get them before they are gone!  Starlooks also offers an array of different products such as hair care items, make up brushes and more.  Plus, they have a super rewards program where for every dollar you spend, you receive one point.  So, for example, 100 points will give you $10 towards your next purchase!
I WANT IT!  HOW DO I GET IT?
  Now you can see why I truly love Starlooks and their Starbox program!  If you want to subscribe, simply click HERE, or go to http://starlooks.com/ and click the Starbox tab.  I definitely recommend the Starbox monthly subscription service as you will not only save a lot of money, but you get the opportunity to sample the entire Starlooks line!  You, too, will be delighted with the wonderful quality, long lasting color, affordable prices, helpful tips and amazing customer service you receive with your Starlooks cosmetics!  Be sure to check them out on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube for great tips, information, promotions and more!

Sunny Seat: The Purrfect Perch for Your Cats


sunnyseat


   If you ask me to name my favorite animal, my immediate answer will be CATS!  I have loved them ever since I was a tiny child, and have always had one for as long as I can remember.  My most recent cat, as those of you who follow this blog know, is a Calico named Sookie.  I like to believe that I am well aware of what she wants, needs and loves and that includes food, water, supplements, lots of love, warmth, high places, plenty of playtime and, of course, numerous NAPS!  I prefer to keep Sookie indoors so this means one of her favorite past-times is looking out the windows, and her favorite place to nap has always been somewhere warm, preferably in a patch of sunlight!  She, like most cats, also has a love for sitting in the highest spots she can find.  So when I was given the opportunity to review the Sunny Seat by Oster, I, standing in for Sookie, jumped at the chance!  I am sure many of you have seen the ads for it on TV, but for those of you who haven’t, keep reading to learn more!
  The Sunny Seat has got to be one of the most innovative products for cats I have seen, and satisfies three primal cat urges: sitting in high places, looking out windows and curling up in a comfy spot for a nice long cat nap!  It attaches easily to a window or sliding glass door to give your cat a safe and secure, comfortable, high spot to sit that includes a view!  Plus, if your windows get direct sunlight, it provides a warm, sunny spot for your cat to nap!

sunnyseat11

   The Sunny Seat comes unassembled in a box, but is extremely easy to assemble in a very short amount of time!  Plastic tubes fit together to form the frame of the seat, and an easily-removable, machine-washable slipcover fits right over the frame to form the actual seat.  Four large suction cups and some very sturdy wire attach the seat to the window or sliding glass door, providing a safe and secure perch.   Be sure to clean the glass very well before attaching the suction cups as they will stick much better if there is no dirt or dust on the glass. 

sunnyseat1 (2)

   I must admit that I was skeptical about how secure the Sunny Seat would be despite both the claim that it can hold up to 50 pounds and the picture on the box of a huge stack of bricks on the seat.  Yet once I saw how big the suction cups were and ran my own test involving a huge stack of hardcover books,  I was completely satisfied!   After several weeks, which involved daily checks, the cups remained firmly attached to the window and there has been no need to reset.

sunnyseat10

  The Sunny Seat measures approximately 12” by 22” which provides plenty of room for kitty to curl up or stretch out.  It is the perfect size to fit most windows easily, and it is especially nice since it is up out of the way, unlike many kitty condos, climbing posts and other toys!  It is ideal if you do not have window sills large enough to accommodate a cat, or if you do not want to use the necessary hardware like screws and nails which are needed to install other types of window seats for pets

sunnyseat6
  
    Sookie wasn’t exactly sure why I kept calling her name and patting this thing stuck to the window, but after I finally decided to pick her up and plop her on it, she refused to come down!  First she sniffed, then began rubbing her face all over the seat and the wires, marking it as her own, then she settled down to stare out the window.  That night I noticed she never came in our room to sleep next to us, and when I got up the next morning and walked in the den, there she was, still in her Sunny Seat sound asleep! 

sunnyseat8

   Although she loved it at the apartment we were living in, she had no idea what she was missing until we moved into our new apartment that is not only on the top floor, but has huge windows with Southern exposure which means tons of nice sunlight pouring in all day long!  Now she spends hours on her seat looking out the window and napping!   What a hard life!

sunnyseat2

   If you have a cat, I highly suggest investing in a Sunny Seat!  They are much more affordable than other options, and provide hours of entertainment for your kitty.  And despite the name Sunny Seat, it doesn’t have to be sunny outside to keep your cat content!  Prices vary, though the majority seem to be around $19.99, and they can be purchased directly through the Oster Animal Care website as well as many other online sites.  You can also find the Sunny Seat at pet stores, mass merchandisers and other brick-and-mortar stores.

Go Max Go Foods! Vegan and Dairy-Free Candy!

A Delicious Giveaway

gomax1

  With many people trying to be more health conscious, they are more aware of not only what they are eating, but of how the food they are eating is made, and with what ingredients it is made.  Foods that are vegan, dairy-free, with no artificial ingredients, and that are made cruelty-free are becoming more in demand.  Unfortunately, when it comes to candy without all that junk, not only is it hard to find, but you often wind up having to sacrifice taste!  Well, with Go Max Go Foods, you get delicious tasting candy without all the bad ingredients!   They have a great selection of vegan candy bars that are both gluten and dairy-free, made with no artificial ingredients, have no trans fat and are 100% cruelty-free!  Plus, their ingredients are all ethically and sustainably sourced!
   Made with rice-milk chocolate, Go Max Go candy bars are available in 6 scrumptious flavors!  I have to admit I had never heard of, much less tasted rice-milk chocolate, and I wasn’t too sure if it would taste very good! I was wrong, and was very impressed!  It was as rich, creamy, sweet and chocolatey as any other chocolate I have ever had!  Really delicious and impressive!

CLEO'S
What They Say:  Creamy peanut butter in a rice-milk chocolatey coating.
What I Say:  Wow!  The peanut butter was rich and creamy and covered in melt-in-your mouth chocolate!  An excellent mix of flavors!

JOKERZ

What They Say:  peanuts, caramel and nougat in a rice-milk chocolatey coating.
What I Say:  Delicious!  Sweet creamy caramel, chewy nougat and salty peanuts covered with scrumptious chocolate.  The perfect combination!

TWILIGHT
What They Say:  caramel and chocolatey nougat in a rice-milk chocolate coating.

gomax6
SNAP!
What They Say:  crisped rice in a rice-milk chocolatey coating.
What I Say:  rich, sweet chocolate filled with crispy crisped rice.  Yummy!  It is so hard to believe this is vegan and dairy-free!

gomax7

My Verdict
  I am truly impressed with Go Max Go Foods candy bars!  I would never have thought that chocolate candy made without dairy could taste so wonderful!  Each candy bar tasted exactly as if they had all the usual junky ingredients from which other candy bars are made.  The fact that they are vegan and have no artificial ingredients and no trans fat is wonderful, and I especially love the fact that they are a cruelty-free food.  Even better, they are also very affordably priced around $2.25 and up depending on where you look.  You can purchase Go Max Go Foods at many health food stores and grocery stores such as The Fresh Market, Earthfare and Whole Foods all over the world.  To find a location near you, visit the location page on the Go Max Go Foods website.   You can also find them online by searching for online sites that sell the brand.

Influenster: Palmolive Fresh Infusions

A Trio of Scent-Infused Dish Soaps
influenster-40_600     

   The other day I received my third VoxBox from Influenster, that awesome site where you can receive new products for free in exchange for your honest opinion!  And the more you participate, the more badges you unlock, and the more badges you unlock the more exclusive discounts on products and services you get, the more rewards you earn and the more invite you receive to try out even more new and innovative products! 

moo, gomax, 033

   This VoxBox was the Palmolive Fresh Infusions VoxBox, and I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the box and found 3 full size bottles of Palmolive’s new Fresh Infusions dish liquid, plus some great coupons to share with my friends!  Fresh Infusions combines nature-inspired scents with the cleaning power of Palmolive that we know and trust!  Three unique, inviting and clean scents are available: Lemon Thyme, Ginger White Tea and Lime Basil.

palmolive8

   I can remember being a little girl and having Palmolive in our house, so once I moved out on my own, this was the brand I used.  While they have come out with many varieties and scents, none match the wonderful aromas of the new Fresh Infusions line!  Every time I wash dishes, my kitchen is filled with a clean, fresh scent that lingers in the air and on my hands long after the dishes are done.  Palmolive gets my dishes, glasses, pots and pans literally sparkling clean without leaving any residue, and it easily removes the toughest cooked-on food, congealed grease and yucky grime without a lot of heavy scrubbing.  Plus, no matter how many dishes I scrub, Palmolive leaves my hands soft and moisturized, not dried out and smelling like chemicals.  Plus, Palmolive Fresh Infusions is phosphate-free.

palmolive2

   I would be hard pressed to pick my favorite scent as all three smell really good, but since I love the scent of lemon, the Lemon Thyme is my first choice!  Second would be the Ginger White Tea, then the Lime Basil.  None of the three scents have that fake, manufactured-smell, but instead each one is pretty close to the scent their name claims.   They are far from over-powering, yet are not so light that they do not linger.  Instead, every time you wash the dishes, your entire kitchen is enveloped with the pleasant scent, and instead of the dirty smell of old food and grease, a clean natural scent wafts up from the water, foam and sponge.  Lemon Thyme has the clean citrus scent of lemon mixed with fresh cut thyme, and it comes in a pale yellow color.  Similarly, Lime Basil mixes the clean citrus scent of lime with fresh basil, and it is a light green color.  The pale pink-colored Ginger White Tea has the tangy zest of Ginger combined with the sweet, relaxing scent of White Tea. 

palmolive3

     I also like the simplicity of the bottles, in their size, shape, and labeling.  Each 16 full ounce bottle has a thin, tubular shape which takes up a lot less room than those wider, bulkier bottles.  They are made of clear plastic and have a very simple label, and the majority of color comes from the liquid inside.  They actually look good sitting on the back rim of the sink, with their simple, clean design.  

palmolive4

   Since it only takes a small amount of liquid to wash a lot of dishes, one bottle lasts quite a long time. I just add a dime-sized drop of dish liquid to my sponge, and I get nice, thick foamy lather that easily cleans the dirtiest dishes and leaves them shiny and clean!   Occasionally I will soak really tough to clean dishes in a sink full of soapy water, and even this takes only a few drops of liquid and a short amount of time to loosen the grime to where it washes away easily!  And regardless of how many dishes I wash, my hands are left incredibly soft, exactly as the brand has always claimed.  Did I mention that Palmolive Fresh Infusions is phosphate-free?

palmolive10

  A bottle of Palmolive Fresh Infusions costs only $2.96 at Wal-Mart, which is a great price for such a wonderful, long-lasting product!  You can find Palmolive Fresh Infusions at Wal-Mart both online and off, as well as at many other grocery stores, drug stores, and mass merchandisers online and offline.  In my opinion, the ease of use, pleasant scent, simple bottle design and affordable price of Palmolive Fresh Infusions really makes washing the dishes a much more pleasant experience!

palmolive20

   Since I was sent three full-sized bottles, I wanted to give one to a friend to see what she thought of it. I let her chose her favorite scent, and she picked the Lime Basil. She has been using it for the last six or seven days and tells me she will not go back to using her old brand.  She loves the way the Palmolive smells, but is equally impressed with how easily and how well it cleans her dishes.  Instead of using a soapy sponge, she washes her dishes by filling one side of her sink with warm, soapy water then rinsing them in the other side.  She told me it only takes a few drops of Palmolive to fill her sink with lots of thick, foamy bubbles, and that the scent is amazing! No more gross smelling dishwater, and no more having to use tons of dish liquid just to keep the water soapy enough to clean all the dishes!  Like me, she is truly impressed!
   If you want even more reasons to try the new Palmolive Fresh Infusions, check out what other members of Influenster are saying on the Palmolive review page!  If you want to become a member of Influenster, I still have a few invitations left!  Just leave me a note in the comments section at the bottom of this page with your email, and I will send you one!  I only have 3 left, so let me know!  If I run out, you can request an invite through www.influenster.com.
  

   Thank you Palmolive and Influenster for my free bottles of Palmolive Fresh Infusions!  All opinions are my own, and are honest and true.

RW Knudsen Spritzers: All Natural Organic Alternative to Soda

Naturally Savvy Sampler

  One of the many sampler programs I am involved with is the Naturally Savvy Savvy Sampler program.  Naturally Savvy is this great site that focuses on Natural, Organic and Green Living.   It is a wonderful place to find the latest news on healthy living including articles, product reviews, recipes, beauty and personal care information, fitness programs, nutrition tips and so much more.  Like many other sampler programs, Naturally Savvy’s Savvy Sampler program will send free, full-sized samples of all-natural, organic and green living products for you to try in exchange for your honest opinion. 
   This was my first experience with the Savvy Sampler program, and I was given the opportunity to try a product by R.W. Knudsen Family.  Since 1961, R.W. Knudsen Family has been producing all natural, organic fresh-pressed and blended juices that are made without any artificial flavoring, preservatives or added sugar.  Today they produce a wide selection of beverages including over 125 different types of natural and organic fruit and vegetable juices, carbonated fruit beverages, non-alcoholic celebratory beverages, natural sports drinks and more.

rwknudsen
   
   One of the beverages they produce was introduced over 25 years ago as an alternative to refined sugar and corn syrup-sweetened sodas, the R.W. Knudsen Family Spritzer line.  Made with real fruit juice and sparkling water, these Spritzers are fat-free, low calorie and low sodium.   They come in slender, 15 fl oz. cans, and are available in 14 flavors including Black Cherry, Peach, Tangerine, Grape, Ginger Ale and more. 

rwknudsen2 (2)

   The flavor I tried was Lemon Lime, and I figured it would taste similar to other lemon-lime sodas, but without that sugary taste.  Was I ever wrong!  Instead it tastes exactly like what it is, lemon, lime and white grape juice concentrates mixed with sparkling water.  It has a very tart taste with just a hint of sweetness, and the sparkling water gives it just enough fizz to make it reminiscent of soda.  It was actually quite refreshing, despite the fact that I am not a huge fan of lemon or lime juices or other tart flavors.

rwknudsen4

   I cannot wait to try some of their other flavors as I was quite impressed with the beverage, and especially like how they are much better health-wise than sodas.  I love the fact that they are made with natural and organic fruit juice, and also that they have no artificial flavors or preservatives, nor added sugars.
  R.W. Knudsen Family Spritzers can be found at many health food stores and grocery stores that carry organic products.  They are usually sold in packs of four at the grocery, although you can buy online in bulk.

From You Flowers: Online Florist for Every Occasion!

Christmas Cheer Bouquet

     Who doesn’t like opening the door and receiving an unexpected surprise of a beautiful bouquet of colorful, fragrant flowers!  I recently had the opportunity to receive and review my very own lovely bouquet of Christmas flowers through From You Flowers, an online florist delivery service which has been voted the Best Value online florist by CBS News, Early Show. 
 reviewsmore 112Christmas Cheer Bouquet

  From You Flowers offers same day delivery of hundreds of beautiful floral bouquets for every occasion from Christmas Flowers to Birthday Flowers, Get Well Flowers to Valentine’s Day Flowers, Housewarming Flowers to Just Because Flowers, and so many more!  You can choose your flowers based on Occasion, or by Type, and they also offer plants and gift baskets!  Best of all, their bouquet prices start as low as $25!
   The Christmas Flower arrangement I received was their Christmas Cheer bouquet which, like all of For You Flowers bouquets, was hand arranged and delivered right to my door by a local florist.  This incredibly festive and fragrant bouquet included red roses, white roses, red carnations, white carnations, holiday greens and quite a few decorative red glass ornaments tucked within the flowers!  They were beautifully arranged in a pretty, clear fluted glass vase with a red and green ribbon trimmed in gold tied around the neck.

   Although there were some differences between the Christmas Cheer bouquet shown on the website and the one I received (see picture below), I was very pleased with my bouquet!  The flowers were perfectly arranged, very fitting of the occasion and were all very fresh and fragrant!  I loved how much holiday cheer, color and ‘life’ the bouquet brought into my home, and I was very impressed with how long they lasted!   I believe some slight differences are to be expected depending on certain circumstances such as the flowers your local florist has in stock or access to, the time of year and the occasion; especially during a peak holiday!

From You Flowers even offers a reminder service so you can be sure not to miss that special day! 
  It was so wonderful to answer the knock on my door and see a beautiful arrangement of flowers waiting to be placed in my home, and I was expecting it!  Imagine how wonderful the recipient will feel when they open their door and are surprised with the special arrangement you ordered for that special someone today!


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
