I have a very keen sense of smell.  And while others that also have that heightened sense of smell choose to use products that have…

Water is a necessary resource for sustainable living, yet 748 million people lack access to clean water – the equivalent of nearly two and a half times the United States population. To address this crisis and to acknowledge water’s essential presence on the earth, the United Nations General Assembly declared March 22 as World Water Day in 1993.

This March I’m joining World Vision to spread awareness for people around the globe who need safe water sources by using this umbrella and beautiful, watercolor scarf to start the conversation.

I no longer have to visit the trial sized aisle for hair care and lotion when I travel!  I know, I know, you all are wondering why I even bring my own toiletries with me when I travel, I mean hotels supply shampoo, conditioner and lotion… but I like mine!  And the older I get the more set I am in what I want to use when it comes to brand names and scents.  

I’ve tried using refillable travel bottles in the past, and have always been disappointed because the plastic cracks or they are hard to fill or dispense.  So I was quite excited when dot & dot sent me a set of their 1.25oz travel bottles to review. 

SuppressMint® is a dot-sized, long-lasting (3-hour) slow-dissolve time-release peppermint-flavored micro-tab that is fortified with the proven dietary supplement and appetite suppressant Chromax® (chromium picolinate).

How does it happen?  You put all the containers together with the lids and inevitably, it turns into a black hole of missmatched containers and lids (half of them missing) and in such disarray you can’t find a container and lid to match if your life depended on it.

It took me a while to get on the Group Coupon train.  There HAS to be a catch I always thought.  Certainly you couldn’t really get such a great deal on some of these events, services or items.  But a friend convinced me that there was nothing to lose, and she was right.  Now I have another site to save money at in the Groupon family and that is Groupon Coupons.

Groupon Coupons is a bit different model than the Groupons you know and love, here you don’t have to buy anything- it’s a big database of FREE coupons!  And it’s not just coupons- they also alert you about store sales and promotions.

Did you know 65 percent of Americans would consider a keyless electronic lock if they could more easily access their home without compromising security?

A survey commissioned by Schlage, and conducted online by Harris Poll in September among over 2,000 U.S. adults found that four out of five Americans believe there would be benefits to having a keyless electronic lock on their home’s door.

There’s something about the dazzling display of a tablet or smartphone that tends to keep a preschooler engaged.  Probably because they love the automatic of touching something and receiving an immediate response.  I’m one of those moms that has no issues with ‘screen time’ if the apps are helpful in nature, and I recently had a chance to review Pica Preschool which is a pretty neat interactive story app for a preschool aged child.

A couple of weeks ago I had the chance to visit Beauty Brands newest store in North Texas.  Located on Southlake Blvd in Southlake, TX, Beauty Brands is a salon and spa superstore.

This was the first time I had the chance to visit any Beauty Brands store and it really is a one stop shop when it comes to your beauty needs.

The range of products and brands is huge.  From skin care and make up to hair products and hair appliances and everything in between, you’ll find all you need from head to toe.
