Professional Sebastian Trilliant Shimmer Complex

I straighten my hair with a flat iron almost ever day which can cause quite a bit of heat damage to my hair.

I recently started using
PROFESSIONAL SEBASTIAN TRILLIANT SHIMMER COMPLEX



I spray it onto my dry hair before i use my flat iron and it leaves my hair shiny and healthy looking and best of all theres NO heat damage.
You can also spray on an extra layer after straightening to add some extra shine.

Where I bought mine it runs about $20 a bottle for a 5.1 oz size, its well worth the money for a great product
I rate this product a 10/10


Lancome

Last week I recieved a free little goodie bag from Lancome, I've mentioned Lancome before in my Top 5 makeup products for on the go moms blog when I reviewed their eyeliner. Now there are a few more products I'd like to share.




The first is a bronzer called 'Star Bronzer Natural Glow'. This product is so perfect for giving you that sun kissed summer glow. It give a pretty, fun, fresh look. I only apply a tiny bit or else it can get pretty dark.



The other item I recieved was a lip gloss 'Juicy Tubes Ultra Shiny Lip Gloss' Its a super cute pink glittery color, I love that I can wear this without it feeling sticky and thick. I love this lip gloss, I have quite a few different colors of this product that I use quite often.




I recieved these products in a nice makeup bag also, its really cute for summer and spring and is a bright blue and green bag.
I love lancome and I would have to say they have some of my favorite makeup products ever, if your willing to pay a little extra for a great product then I would recommend lancome.



Ed Hardy Hearts and Daggers Perfume

I recently purchased some new perfume by Ed Hardy called Hearts and Daggers ($55)



This is by far the best smelling perfume I have used in a long time.
It has a fruity/flowery scent that smells amazing and is long lasting.
I would recommend this perfume to anyone whos looking to try out a new scent.
Definately a 10/10

THRIFT FIND!

While going to some garage sales a few weeks ago I came across alot of junk but I also came across a great find. I found an Ed Hardy bag in perfect condition for almost nothing! I love the bright colors!


I just might go to some more and see what else I can find :]

"one mans trash is another mans treasure"




I recently purchased a darling photography prop from a lady named Cami. I just had to share it with everyone, this lady is so talented and makes the CUTEST stuff for babies. Everyone should check out her site, her prices are good and her items are one of a kind :]

She also included a free hand made bow :]

Everyone go check out her site and see all the fun stuff she has

my top 5 makeup products for on the go moms

Being a mom (especially having little ones) can keep you very busy, but as a young mom I still like to try and look my best. I've picked my top 5 must have products that get me ready for the day. I use all of these items daily and love them.

I usually start with my eyes using Mary Kay black eyeliner twist up crayon ($12).  Its very easy to apply and lasts me the whole day without any smudges.



Next I add my eye shadow, I use Flirt! cream eye shadow in 07 CROSS MY HEART ($12). Cross my heart has yellow and pink tones to it and it looks great with any color you might be wearing that day.  The cream shadow gives a pretty yet fun look at the same time. They come in tons of different colors for everyones different styles. 


Time for the mascara, I use Lancome Hypnose Drama Mascara ($15). It adds great volume and length to my lashes and looks amazing.


To finish off my look I then add my foundation. I use COVERGIRL clean foundation 520. ($5) I apply a thin layer and it still gives great coverage without feeling like your makeup is caked on. Dont let the cheap price fool you, I love this product, its a great deal at a great price. They come in tons of different shades to match anyones skin tone.



Last but not least, after a busy day with the kiddos its time to take off the makeup and relax. I use Lancome eye makeup remover ($28). It works AWESOME, just a dab and all the eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara is gone. I love that it removes everything without leaving your skin feeling oily afterwards.



I would 100% recommend all of these products to any mom on the go.

Gerber Graduates

I've been buying different flavors of the Gerber Graduates line to try for my 10 month old, I'm sharing with everyone today the ones we have tried so far. My little guy is always trying to eat "big boy" food, but he isn't totally ready for it yet, the Gerber Graduates products have come in handy time and time again, he loves being able to eat some solid food with his brother.


The first product we've tried and loved are the Graduates Lil Crunchies in Mild Cheddar, Garden Tomato, and Cinnamon maple flavors. They are easy for baby to hold and feed themselves and easy for them to chew up and swallow. They have great taste too, (yes i'm guilty of taking one...or two now and then :] ) I look forward to trying other flavors of the lil crunchies line.


Another one of my sons favorites which are also super yummy are the Graduates Arrowroot Cookies, they are also very easy for baby to hold and chew and almost 'melt' in your mouth

Graduates Puffs are also a favorite in my household, they come in a ton of different flavors, we personally have only tried the Cinnamon Apple puffs and Strawberry Apple puffs but my son 100% approves of both flavors.

Last but not least I would like to share Graduates Yogurt Melts, My son loves the Strawberry and Mixed Berry flavors. This product can get a little bit messy since the yogurt melts when they eat it so I would suggest having some wet wipes or a cloth around but they are just as flavorful and great as all of the Graduates products.

I look forward to trying a lot more of the Graduates Line, they come in all different flavors and stages including sitter, crawler, and toddlers. They have a little something for everyones specific needs. My favorite thing about the products above is they are all very easy to travel with, just throw some in a plastic baggy, put it in the diaper bag and your good to go :] I rate all of these products 10/10

johnsons baby products

ok so most kids love bath time, at least my kids do! I've found 4 of my favorite bath time products that I would like to share with everyone. They are all Johnsons brand and all amazing! My kids are 4 years old and 10 months and I can use these products for both kids which makes buying faster and easier. Not to mention you can buy them at most of your local stores, I personally buy them at Walmart. Most or all of them are under $5 and you can get coupons for up to $2 off, the Johnsons website also provides offers for coupons and other deals.

The first product I would recommend is Johnsons head to toe baby wash, I use this product on both boys, its gentle enough for my baby but strong enough for my 4 year old. It leaves there skin clean and soft and has a really good scent to it as do all of the Johnsons products I have tried.

My favorite of the four products would have to be the Johnsons bedtime bath and Johnsons bedtime lotion. They are Lavendar scented and so soothing, I bathe my little one down with the bedtime bath and afterwards put some bedtime lotion on before jammies, these two products never fail to get my little one relaxed for the night and ready for bed.
Last but not least I'd like to share with you Johnsons Soothing Vapor Bath. All of you moms out there know how difficult it can be to have a cranky baby with a yucky cold. I saw this product and figured I would give it a try. I replace the normal bath wash with this when my little ones get sick, It feels the room with a soothing minty vapor. Its strong enough to clear babies stuffy nose but also gentle enough that the scent isnt overpowering.


I have been very impressed with all of the Johnsons products that I have tried so far and would recommend them to anyone, they have so many varieties for everyones different needs and preferences. I rate all 4 of these products a 10/10

no more leaky diapers at night

Hello everyone,
So the past few weeks I've had a little problem with my 10 month old at night time which has become an inconvenience for the both of us since he likes to still sleep with mommy. As he is getting bigger he is starting to soak through his diapers at night, I finally went and bought some Huggies nighttime diapers from Walmart, they are AWESOME! No soaked through diapers since :] They are still soft on my baby boys skin and they are doing a great job of keeping him (and mommy) comfortable through the night. I would recommend this product to anyone with babies, and the best part? They dont rob your wallet, great product at a great price! There are also alot of printable coupons for this product online that can take up to an additional $3 off, cant beat that! I rate them 10/10.
