Hockey Sticks and Lipstick

This isn't going to be a review so much as a love letter of sorts. I found these randomly at target a few months ago and I thought they looked really great.  Product Description: From Pacifica's website, "Clean skin is an absolute for anti-aging.  Coconut water infused natural towelettes gently cleanse your face while removing toxins, oil, pollutants and make-up* from your skin without water. Papaya, a natural exfoliant, helps revive skin and remove dead cells. Aloe vera and calendula soothe and calm. These skin-loving wipes are an indispensable part of your daily routine for healthy skin. Anytime, anywhere." Size:   One pack comes with 30 pre-moistened biodegradable facial towelettes in a sealable bag. Price:   $7.99 Review:   I have very sensitive skin and so I was super excited to try something with natural ingredients whose main ingredient is coconut oil. I've read so much about the benefits of coconut even as a make up remov...

Being a Hockey Mom means I have to spend a lot of time in cold temperatures. It's like winter all year round. We spend several days a week at the ice rink, and as weather gets warmer here in Texas, my skin pays the price more every day. The change from warm to cold in such a short time span zaps any moisture out of my skin, specifically my hands. I went on a hunt for something that would moisturize my skin better than your average drugstore lotion. During a quick trip to Sephora, I was told to Josie Maran's Whipped Argan Oil Intensive Hand Cream a try since the Argan Oil would bring moisture back to my hands and elbows, the places that suffer the most. Product Description: From Josie Maran's website, 100% Pure Argan Oil, whipped to buttery perfection with rich shea butter, will soften you up in no time. With hydrating macadamia nut oil, anti-inflammatory chamomile and green tea extract, and nourishing carrot seed oil, it’s the most luxurious cream ever, hands-down...

I am about to lay some truth about motherhood on you. Your life forever changes- for the good, the bad and the ugly. The changes range from having your heart filled with a kind of love you never thought you could experience to having a kangaroo pouch from carrying a tiny human being for 10 months. Before I got pregnant, I loved to play around with my style and I loved shopping! Fast forward 6 years, and it's not nearly as much fun. When you have a little boy and husband in toe, both complaining about how bored they are or how much they would rather go to the Lego Store, its hard to put together outfits while shopping. Its hard to ENJOY shopping like that. Now being a mom, with a job in an office with a stricter dress code, I had to change my style up a bit too. I suddenly felt like I lost my sense of what pieces I should put together, I needed some inspiration, and I needed it bad! A friend of mine posted about a website called www.mystylit.com and she raved about how absolutely a...

I. Love. Benefit. I love their packaging, I love their products, I love everything about the brand. Today I'm reviewing a product I was super excited to try... Benefit's Gimme Brow! Product Description: From Benefit's website, "Bring on the brows! This innovative brush-on fiber gel adheres to skin & hair…creating brows where before there were none. It builds easily for thick, lush arches, thanks to a tapered brush for blending & precision tip for shaping. Available in two shades." The two available shades are light/medium and medium/deep. I'll review the product more below but one little negative about the product is how limited Benefit is in the shades available. There really isn't an option for people with red hair, really dark brown/black, or extremely blonde. Size:   3.0g Net wt. 0.1oz. Review: Like most Benefit products, this was a major hit with me! I have naturally thinner eyebrows and it really helps thicken them up. I also have a li...
