Lee The Dream Jeans

Image
I love skinny jeans, especially in the fall and winter. I enjoy pairing them with a cute bootie or a knee high boot. The new Lee Dream Jeans are the most comfortable jeans I have ever owned. They feel like pajamas on the inside and jeans on the outside. I'm a tall girl so it can be challenging finding skinny jeans that are long enough that if I wanted to I could wear them with flats. I never have to worry about that with Lee jeans, they offer different lengths which make them perfect if you're if your 4'8 or 6'0.

Pasta Chips and Giveaway

Image
Pasta Chips  are the freshest take on pasta dough yet. If it weren’t for the name, and me telling you, you’d have no idea these chips are baked pasta dough, not traditional potato chips. Inspired in the hills of Tuscany, every bite of Pasta Chips tastes like a little slice of Italy. These are one of those snacks that don't make me feel guilty when I eat half a bag. The Mediterranean Sea Salt is the simplest of the flavors, but that doesn’t mean its lacking. Simple, delicious, and perfect. Spicy Tomato Herb I think was my favorite of them all. It has the ideal balance of spices to create a snack that pops with flavor. The Marinara reminds me of  lasagna. I dont know what it is and it sounds weird, but its delicious! Alfredo tastes just like a bowl of my favorite alfredo pasta…only much more convenient. Rosemary isn't a super strong but its one of my favorites. I actually used this one to dip in my chili.   Spinach-Broccoli Kale is a vegi

Orglamix

All makeup is not created equal. The majority of cosmetics on the market are loaded with synthetic ingredients, nasty fillers and animal derived ingredients (like fish scales, beetle shells, and whale poop) which are not only disgusting, but may be harmful to your skin and your health. orglamix is different, they create natural, socially responsible alternatives to your favorite cosmetics. Cruelty free, vegan and PETA certified, Orglamix products are handcrafted in small batches with love in Chicago. Rest assured, over 1500 toxic chemicals have been banned from Orgamix to date their products are free from animal ingredients and harmful chemicals such as: parabens, sulfates, petrochemicals, phthalates, preservatives as well as free from irritants like bismuth oxychloride.                               This is the Illume enlighten luminizer.

Thompson Ferrier New York

All our candles are made from high fragrance essential oils, proprietary sox wax blend and 100% cotton wicks.                                                                                                     I received the Fig and Cinnamon candles. They smell AMAZING, burn for 30-50 hours and come in the cutest packaging. I haven't burned the fig one yet because it doesn't match the other scents currently in my home but come Thanksgiving it will be lit. The cinnamon one pairs perfectly with the other scents at the moment. it burns evenly and does not ash which is something I always look for in a candle. I burn my candles for long periods of time so if they get ashy I don't want it. Thompson Ferrier offer such a variety of candles, loads of scents and designs. Go head over to their site and take a look for yourself, you will not be disappointed.

Josie Maran Whipped Argon Oi Face Butter

Image
As many of you know I have SUPER sensitive skin. My skin reacts pretty horribly to new face skincare. I dry out and break out super easily. I have been using Josie Marans whipped argon oil face butter for about 2 months now and my skin has never been better.                                                              I was skeptical to try a new face moisturizer but this one is by far the best one I have ever used. It works beautifully on my sensitive skin, its super moisturizing without making me overly oily. This has a slight smell but it is not over powering. I use this morning and night. Since trying this, I decided to try other products from Josie Maran. I started using the Nirvana hydrating treatment mist before applying the face butter and my skin improved even more. I HIGHLY recommend Josie Maran. Every product I have tried, I absolutely love, and will continue to repurchase.

Lush Solid Shampoo Bars

Image
Once you start using solid shampoo bars you will NEVER go back to bottled shampoo! One bar is around $15 and lasts me 3-4 months. These lather so well and last longer than bottled shampoo, it also leaves my hair feeling clean yet hydrated. I have tried bottled shampoo from lush and I never liked the feeling it left in my hair and these don't do that. They also smell SO good! I highly recommend going to lush and grabbing a couple Shampoo Bars, you will not regret it! Make sure  you also pick up the cute little solid shampoo bar tins for perfect storage,
