GourmetGiftBaskets.com Brownies Review and Giveaway!


 During the Holiday's I did a review for GourmetGiftBaskets.com's Classic Christmas Basket. Which included some really great and absolutely delicious goodies. Little did I know that they also offer baked goods. Such as Cheesecake, Red Velvet Cake, Cookies, Whoopie Pies and Brownies! Yum! I was lucky enough to get to try one of each flavor of GourmetGiftBaskets.com's Brownies. They have 6 different brownie varieties and they are so good. All were rich, and super moist. All individually wrapped to preserve freshness. My absolute favorite was the Cheesecake Brownie which was a brownie topped with a generous layer of delicious cheesecake. Ah-may-zing! I'd also like to mention that some of them were edge pieces which is great because the edge brownie pieces are my favorite. I've never seen a company do that before and you really get a more homemade feel.  I didn't eat them all to myself, I had 3 helpers and nobody had anything bad to say. These would make a great gift.

March Eco-Emi


 If you've been reading my blog for awhile you may already be familiar with Eco-Emi. I used to write up a blog post every month for the lastest Eco-Emi Box. I loved my boxes. Unfortunately, I had to cancel my subscription do to money issues. Then a whole new group of monthly subscription services came out and I tried those. I found myself wishing that I had just stuck to Eco-Emi. With Eco-Emi you are getting what you pay for and more. As well as really great customer service. I REALLY, REALLY MISSED IT! I tried to re-subscribe only to find that there is a waiting list. :( It's ok though because I was approved for a review. Which means I can get my fix and be able to hold off a little longer. LOL.

 Eco-Emi is a Eco-Friendly, Green and Vegan monthly lifestyle subscription service. Rather than just getting cosmetic and beauty samples, you get a mix of food, household, cleaning, health and wellness.  It being a lifestyle box is great for me because I get to try a little bit of everything and helps introduce me to great Green Companies. I personally find the world of Green and Eco-Friendly products extremely overwhelming. Has helped so much, and I've found some products and companies that I had been passing up before and use everyday now. The cost of Eco-Emi is $15 monthly for residents of the US and $30 monthly for International residents.  Payments are easy and secure through Paypal.

 So let's get into what was in the March Eco-Emi Box which is to help you get ready for Spring!

  • Revitalize Shampoo & Conditioner by Greenbody Greenplanet 8oz $24
  • Vegan Mineral Eye Shadows & Vegan Gel Eyeliner by The All Natural Face Eyeshadow $3.50 Gel Eyeliner $5.75 ( I love these! Smooth, & Buildable eyeshadows. The gel liner is jet black and matte)
  • Raw Vegan Bar by Bella 20ct $19.80 (I received the Chocolate flavor. It's not for me. Tastes more like dates then anything else)
  • Pomegranate Gum by Vitacare $1.69
  • Toothbrush by Vitacare $3.39
  • Lip Tint by Badger $6.50
  • Pear Tree Specialty Liquid Soap by Old Post Road Oils(Vegan) $7
  • Incense by Auromere Ayurvedic multiple scents sample pack. $6.95 (haven't tried these but I've never met an Auromere Ayurvedic product I didn't like) 
Marches Eco-Emi was great and I am totally satisfied with it. I cannot wait till my turn comes up on the waiting list. If your interested in receiving an Eco-Emi you can Join here.  Check out Eco-Emi on Facebook too! 

*I was sent the March Eco-Emi box free for the purposes of this blog post. All opinions are my own and I was not paid for this review*

Conceive Easy TTC Kit Review

Press Sample Affiliate Link



“We are excited to announce the launch of our newest fertility product, ConceiveEasy TTC Kit™, for women who are trying to conceive (TTC),” said Claire Beauchamp, Senior Fertility Specialist at FertiBella ConceiveEasy. “The complete, all-in-one TTC Kit is all you’ll ever need to increase your fertility and help you get pregnant faster with our all-natural solution, without any side effects. Now, for a limited time, moms-to-be can try the new TTC Kit™ and choose to customize their Kit with any combination of an exclusive bonus gift of 20 free pregnancy tests, 20 free ovulation tests, or 10 pregnancy & 10 ovulation tests (a $72 value).”
ConceiveEasy is a natural aid that boosts the body’s fertility level by stimulating ovulation and effectively overcoming the seven most common causes of infertility. The formula has been clinically tested and those using ConceiveEasy showed an increased pregnancy rate of 33 percent. The kit assists women in increasing their fertility rate in just 28 days with no unpleasant side effects or dangerous fertility drugs.

When I was first approached by Conceive Easy, I immediately thought of someone I know that has been trying to conceive for sometime now. Thankfully the awesome folks at Conceive Easy said it was OK for me to send their Trying to Conceive Kit to her and report back to all of you with the results.

The kit includes a two month supply of Conceive Easy's Fertibella Natural Pills, that helps improve cycle regularity,  and lead to a pregnancy. Then you have the chance to choose between 3 bonus gifts:
  •  Option #1 20 Early Result Pregnancy Tests
  •  Option #2 20 Ovulation Strips
  •  Option #3 10 Early Result Pregnancy Tests and 10 Ovulation Strips
My tester chose Option #3. She has been taking the Fertibella for 2 1/2 weeks and has just used the ovulation strips and found that she is indeed ovulating. She tells me that the TTC Kit has been easy to use, the pills are easy to take and she feels confident that they are working! I am so looking forward to being able to update you all when she becomes pregnant. I'm so glad that I was given the opportunity to be able to do this review and to give the Kit to someone who so deserves to become a Mommy.
UPDATE May 2012! My tester is expecting her first child!


 You can currently try the TTC Kit FREE for 30 days with no obligation to buy. After the 30 days is up you will be charged $39.95 per month and receive a new shipment every 60 days. Good news is if you decide the TTC Kit is not for you, you can cancel before the 30 days is up and keep the ovulation and pregnancy tests. Order now and receive a free Basal Thermometer and 20 Ovulation or Pregnancy Test Stips!

New Gilette Venus & Olay Razor


As a member of Influenster, I often get the opportunity to try out great products for free. Most recently I received the new Gillette Venus & Olay razor before it hit the shelves! While having soap surrounding razors is not a new thing, Gillette has combined the Venus 5 blade razor with Olay. I Love this! I am a fan of Olay and have always loved how soft their soap makes my skin. Not to mention I'm lazy and one less step in my shaving routine is fantastic. Being able to just wet the razor and apply it to my skin is great, the five blades combined with Olay has given my legs a super close shave and left my legs silky smooth.

 Here's What Gillette has to say:

Venus & Olay Razor

For the first time ever, Gillette Venus, a global leader in female shaving, and Olay, a global leader in skincare, are coming together to deliver a gold standard in shaving with the new Gillette Venus & Olay razor. Venus’ best shaving technology works with Olay Moisture Bars, offering women best-of-both-worlds shaving and skin expertise. Olay Moisture Bars help lock-in moisture to your skin for less dryness, and with every smoothing stroke, Venus’ five blades shave you close.

Product Details
  • Venus’ five-bladed razors shave you close and adjust to women’s curves for a smooth and comfortable shave, even over tricky shaving areas like knees and ankles.
  • Olay Moisture Bars contain skin-enhancing elements found in Olay products: Petrolatum helps lock in skin’s moisture for less dryness and Glycerin helps offer that goddess glow! Just wet the razor to release a light lather – no separate shave cream required.
  • As with most Venus razors, new Venus & Olay also features a rounded, pivoting head designed for women’s curves, and a soft-grip ergonomic handle for confident control, even in wet and soapy environment

Where to Buy
A refillable Venus & Olay with one replacement cartridge sells for approximately $8.99-$10.99. Packages of three replacement cartridges are available for about $14.99 - $19.49.
Venus & Olay will be available starting March 15, 2012 at food, drug, convenience and mass merchandise stores throughout the United States.

MyGlam Bag March

 I have to say that MyGlam has very swiftly gone downhill.  MyGlam promoted themselves as being the place to actually get quality deluxe cosmetic samples delivered to your mailbox for only $10 a month. MyGlam Bag started out with a bang which is to be expected, of course the first month is going to be amazing. Sadly, in the four months that MyGlam has been around not only have the products offered been terrible, but the customer service is seriously lacking. Granted, MyGlam is a new company and they are still working out the kinks, but when customers are being charged for bags that they aren't receiving and promised special items in their next bags and instead receiving nothing...It's a big problem. All one has to do is head to their Facebook page. Happy customers are few and far between. I'm teetering on whether to keep my subscription and toughing it out or cancelling altogether. Do you receive MyGlam Bags? What do you think? I would love to hear your thoughts.

 If you'd like to check out MyGlam you can find them here:http://www.myglam.com/
