First Walmart Beauty Box Review!

So this is the over all view of my walmart beauty box. It's kinda just meh, you know? I was like, "Okay, not to too bad, I can't work with this." That is, until I started looking further into the box.
In the above picture, you will see all of the "deluxe size" samples. If you look closely, you can see the dove body wash. Now, some of you may be thinking it's not so bad, but, I go online to get free samples ALL of the time! And if you're like me, you know that Walmart has a "Free Sample" link on their website. I received this SAME dove body wash, completely free and shipping was free too! I actually got it back in November. So, it's kind of a bummer to see something that they normally give out for free already, in the box. Another thing, they usually send coupons with their "foil packet" samples. On my John Frieda sample, they gave me an EXPIRED coupon. EXPIRED! A lot of you probably think that this isn't a big deal, but some people actually do use those coupons, or pass them on to someone else.
All in all, I'm going to try this box for ONE more month, which will be the spring beauty box, and if it's just crap, I WILL be cancelling my subscription!

Fit for we, Mommy and Me!!

UA-58614835-1




These bottles are the "Fit for We, Mommy and Me" bottles. I absolutely love the concept. The woman who invented these is trying to start up a business so that she can spend more time with her little girl, instead of working her life away. 
They fit in your hand perfectly, just the feel is unlike any regular water bottle I've had.
It has a silver clamp, to clamp over the button, and the white button on the front pops the lid up. It's just great! I also LOVE the strainer type thing on the inside, it's great for not getting too much, especially since these were designed for mommy and child.
They have a little white clip on the back. Great for purses, or belts, things to hook it onto for easy transportation. 
The picture, honestly, does NOT do these bottles justice. The color is just outstanding! So bright and vibrant. When you order these bottles, you get not only one, but two!! One is 25 ounce, and one is 18 ounce. So their very good size.
Take it from me, if you're considering a water bottle, or even thinking about that perfect gift for the moms and children in your life, you need to buy these. You won't regret them!

I recently decided to try out Skinologys 100% Lemon Essential Oil.
It is seriously, the most amazing stuff I have ever used.
Most essential oils are watered down, or doesn't give off much of a scent.
This essential oil smells like lemons in a bottle.
It is such a delicious smell, and it doesn't lose it's scent once you use it as a therapy. 
This is a huge bottle. I got a 1 ounce bottle from GNC and paid 6 bucks.
This bottle, you get 4 ounces, which is huge. 
Take it upon yourself to try this essential oil. 
It really is perfect!!


One of the ways I use it, is as an in scent laundry booster.
Instead of buying those expensive unstoppables, just grab some bottles of your favorite essential oils! (Like the one in the picture)

What you will need:
Any scent of your favorite essential oil
A bag of epsom salt (I use 4lb bag at walmart for 2.86)
Food coloring (optional)

Just pour your epsom salt into a big bowl
Add 1-2 tablespoons of your essential oils
And a few drops of food coloring (optional)
Mix Mix Mix!!
You have to stir everything together for about 4-5 minutes.
Once done, let sit for about 1-2 hours.
Then grab an air tight container.
(They have them at the dollar tree for a buck, or they have some really cute ones at walmart for 1.97)
Once done, put in your container and their ready to use!

Use about 1/8 a cup for every load, or more depending on the size of your load.
These are HE safe as well, and they soften hard water!!

I hope you enjoy this post and if you have any questions just let me know!
