Zoya; Jelly Brites

Good morning!  The sis a super lazy Saturday because I am still in pajamas and on the couch watch the World Cup.  The Portugal/Uruguay game is just about to get started and I think it's going to be a really good game.  Who are you rooting for?  I'm Portugal all the way!  So while I sit here being my lazy self I figured it was a nice opportunity to to share a quickie post with you.  Zoya recently released the Jelly Brites collection, a trio of pretty jellies for some juicy Summer nails!  You'll be able to purchase these for $10 each or $30 for the set.  Let's go ahead and get started with the review!

KBShimmer; Sugar Scrub in Tide Me Over

Good morning!  I wanted to get right back to you with another hand/body care product.  This time it's a great Sugar Scrub from KBShimmer!  If you remember, a few months back when KBShimmer relaunched her brand with new packaging, she also released new scents.  I previously shared my thoughts on the Cuticle Cream and Body Lotion (you can see that post HERE) so today I'll show off the fun Sugar Scrub!  There are 7 scents available and they are all packed with oils and butters that melt in to your skin leaving you not only soft but also moisturized!  You can pick up a 9.5 ounce Tide Me Over or any of the other scents for $10.  Time to check out the scrub!

Alter Ego; Ego Maniacs Group Custom, Champagne Taste, Beer Budget

Morning dears!  My Thursday started off great!  Why you ask?  Because I had to be out early for an appointment and ended up in the neighborhood of the BEST donut shop in the area, Stan's Donuts!  This place makes all kinds of donuts but what they're known for is cranking out hot, glazed donuts that literally melt in your mouth.  Mmmmmm.  Now that that very useful information is out of the way let's talk about nail polish.  Alter Ego has a very pretty new polish coming out soon.  It's a fantastical lime green loaded with a UP-esque shimmer.  Champagne Taste, Beer Budget will only be available to members of the Alter Ego Maniacs fan group on Facebook.  I don't know the exact price, I don't know if it's LE, but I do know it will be available on 7/6!  So let's jump in and check it out.

Fit Snack Box; April 2018

Good morning again!  Today is my kids last day of school.  I'll be out and about most of the day trying to get things done and attending grade level"graduation" parties, but before any of that happens I want to drop another Fit Snack post with you.  I hadn't realized how much my kids missed helping me with the taste testing portion of these boxes.  And I'm so grateful that they are all willing to try new snacks and for the most part enjoy them!  It gives me healthier ideas for their lunch boxes and after school snacks.  So as I mentioned in my last Fit Snack post, I had been on a hiatus due to morning sickness, and have a few months of boxes to catch up on.  Today I have the April box!  Keep in mind, the box you order will have different products in it, but I always share the company link so you can purchase products individually if you want to try them.  As always, you can subscribe to Fit Snack with a $3 discount using my link HERE!  Time for snacks!

Fit Snack Box; May 2018

Morning friends!  It's been a while since I've shared one of these posts with but for good reason.  I found out in early March that I am pregnant with my #4 baby.  Leading up to finding out I had been sick sick sick.  It continue for a good 2 months.  I was living in misery people, nauseous like no other, barely getting off the couch or leaving the house.  Sheer torture for someone like me who is uber active and always on the go (torture for anyone regardless of their pre-pregnancy routines actually).  So the last thing I wanted to do was eat let alone look at the snacks showing up in my Fit Snack boxes.  Which is really a shame because who know, maybe I would have found some snack that tasted good and made me feel better.  Anyways, I have a bit of a backlog of Fit Snack boxes to share with you now that I am feeling more like my normal self and back to a bit of an exercise routine I am going to tackle these to share with you! I'll start with the most recent and go backwards - so today I have the May box to share! As always, you can subscribe for the Fit Snack with a $3 discount using my link HERE!  Let's get to snacking!

Alter Ego: Velocirapture Collection

Good morning!  Are you guys fans of dinosaurs?  Maybe a bit obsessed with the JP movies?  I will admit that I am hugely obsessed with these movies, I will literally watch them again and again even thought I have seen them all over a hundred times.  Ever since I was in Kindergarten I have been fascinated with dinosaurs and it never died out, even in to my adult hood.  #dinonerd and proud!  Alter Ego's fan group had a naming game, fun quotes from the first movie and along came the Velocirapture Collection!  I can rattle off a ton more memorable quotes from this (or any of the movies in the series) but I am really happy one of my names made it and I'll share it with you when I get to it.  The Velocirapture Collection will debut at the Indie Expo Canada this weekend (6/9 - 6/10) and then online on the 10th.  These will be available in minis and full sizes.  Minis will be $4.75 each, $20 for the collection.  Full size will be $9.50 each, $47.50 for the collection.  Perfect timing for some great dinosaur inspired nails and art for the upcoming Jurassic World movie.  Ok, let's check out the collection!

Zoya; Bridal Bliss Collection, Wedding Season

Evening beauties!  Can you believe it's June already!?  Summer is literally here and I am so happy, especially because I just got a new bikini and it's so comfy!  I think I'll wear it at the beach tomorrow!  While Summer is all about vacation, beach, pool, BBQ vibes, I think it's also wedding season.  So I held off on sharing the Zoya Bridal Bliss Collection until now because it made more sense to me (I don't know many people that get married in the Spring - the weather is so unpredictable).  So here are the 12 soft/pastel shades that make up the Bridal Bliss Collection.  They are all quite pretty and can be used in many ways, even for art.  But they are also perfect for a neutral, less noticeable mani, because you want people looking at your ring, not your nails!  You can purchase any of these now for  $10 each.  Let's check them out.
