Glade Expressions Collection BzzAgent








I guess I have to rewrite this since the post earlier I wrote didn't saved and I end up losing whatever I've written before. Anyways.......

I got in the BzzAgent Glade Expressions collection campaign. I've used the spray before and loved it but have not used the oil diffuser before.

What I received was a coupon booklet for a free fragrance spray and a oil diffuser kit and the rest were like $2 off and $4 off for the product.

My favorite spray fragrance was the mandarin linden (if I'm correct...sorry if not since I don't have the spray here with me). It's smell like fresh linden! If you're not a fan of strong fragrances then I say this is perfect for all over the house.

As for the oil diffuser I got the pineapple one. What I love about this is that there's no need to plug it in! No batteries required! Usually with plugins, I have to worried about my kids unplugging it and trying to plug it back in with the risk of being electrocuted. With the glade oil diffuser, I have no worries about it at all. I just need to put it in a high area where my kids won't be able to reach and just leave it there. For the first 2 weeks, my living room smells soooooooooo good. Other than that, the smell is barely noticeable since we're so used to the smell that it does tend of fade. I would recommend buying it again.

Favorite online book reading site!

I know that I haven't been blogging since things in life is pretty complicated right now. Just one of those situation where you can't control it and I'm sure fate have it's own path for us.

What I wanted to share is my favorite app that I've been obsessing over for the past few weeks now! I've been staying up nightly only getting like 3-4 hours of sleep just because I choose to stay up. You can however opt out on the app and just read it online at their site which is http://www.wattpad.com/home . This is now one of my favorite app reading site and the writers there are amazing. My husband thinks that I'm crazy but I feel like I've learnt a lot of things about vampire and werewolves from wattpad LOL!

Some reccomendation on what to read?

So far, I've been reading vampire and werewolves stories only so these are the ones that I loved reading that I would definitely recommend to anyone's that a Twilight/Vampire Diaries/werewolves/vamp fan:

http://www.wattpad.com/story/452342-mate-or-mates-watty-awards-2011

Some stories are not completed but they're definitely worth reading. Those are the three that I have on my wattpad library on the computer but on my apps, there's lots of those. Have I told you guys I received an early b-day present from my hubby a few month ago? Well, I got a Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 and loving it. Although you can only surf the net if there's wifi, the books that you add on your app will still be there in your library without the need for internet. Whenever I take my kids to their appointment, I would add as many books as I can and just read while waiting. Good stuff huh? Till then, you should check out wattpad.com !!!

Dentek Floss

I wasn't required to do this but I love the kids dentek floss so much that I actually went out and bought a pack for my kids. I'll post up the picture but my hubby's out of town with my laptop so I don't have it on the computer. Anyways, the kids floss are prefect for their small little mouth and teeth! It comes in 4 colors: pink, orange, blue, green.

I use it on myself but the floss is quite small but I don't really mind about it. For the adult floss, it's okay but I just don't like how the end have a really pointy toothpick. It's pretty sharp and all I could imagine is that if my little gal got a hold of it, she might hurt herself with it. Just being cautious. Both of the pack have coated fluoride so that's a good thing for the little ones teeth. The pack that I bought have 77 floss picks in it...forgot how much it was but I got it from Target.


updated 7/22:

After taking my daughters to the dentist, I decided to get another pack of the kids dentek floss since we're almost out. I can tell you that my kids love using it and the overall price is okayish. It's $2.88 per pack. It's cheaper if you just buy regular floss but much faster and easier to use the floss stick.


I now officially lost all of my pictures that I had taken including my precious photos!!!! QQ
I plug in the sd card in my laptop going to transfer the pictures I had taken and it wouldn't work so I had to put it in my camera which tried it through there but the files were all gone!!!!!! I'm so angry at myself!!!!

Hubby have the picture in my laptop so I can't really upload it since he's out of state for 2 weeks but I'll upload it once he comes back. My thoughts about the imPress:


Pro:

~quick and easy
~selections to choose from
~no drying time needed
~good for on the go

Cons:
~size may fit, too big, too small depending on your nails
~comes off if you do hard core stuff ( I have kids so it came off easily for me)


Those are just some that I could think of. Some were too big for my nails but others fit okay. It's good when you're going to a party or a night out but I do not recommend wearing this as a daily basis when you're busy with your hands. They do come off easily if you accidentally peel it. It will stick back on but won't be as strong when you first put it on, therefore it comes off easily.
 
I'm not too big of a fan on the imPress but if I'm going out to a party or something, I would definitely purchase them since painting my nails will take a while ( again, I have kids so my nails are never pretty when I paint them). 

The many uses of Ivory

This is a required review for the Ivory soap from the Mom voxbox of July so it's the reason why I'm doing it but these are my honest opinion about the product. I have been using it ever since I received the mom voxbox.


   ~How you used Ivory Bar Soap:
       * Body Cleanser 
       * Facial Cleanser
       * Clothes Stain Remover (food stains, ring around collar, etc)
       * Laundry Flakes
       * Soap Carving Project
       * Other
    
~What you like about Ivory and why
 
      I actually tried the ivory soap as a makeup remover. I don't really suggest of your whole face since it's kind of feel icky, but it's really good at removing eye liner/gel liner. Those really hard to moved eye liner that even makeup remover can't remove it all. I did get some in my eyes which stung a bit but flushed it with water so I had no problems at all.
 
    ~Results you saw from using this product
 
    Like what I wrote above, I use it as a eye makeup remover. I love it! So far I've tried 2 eye makeup remover and those two don't seem to removed the gel liner cleanly but with the ivory soap, it removes almost all of it. So...the result was great!
 
    ~Recommended uses for this product
 
 Like any other soap, you can pretty much use it as you use the regular soap. However I've heard of people using the ivory soap for laundry. You can search through google for a homemade laundry soap if you're wondering what I'm saying or want to look for the recipe. 

It's definitely for everyone. It doesn't have any fragrance to it so those that are sensitive to fragrance or with sensitive skin, I recommend this over some soap. Another thing, I'm one of those people that don't use baby wipes to wipe my kids bottom when they're done with their business; I prefer washing it to reduce rashes...even as a newborn I do noticed results of washing their bottom versus with wipes...with wipes, they tend to get diaper rashes quickly than when you wash it. So far my 15 months gal have no reactions to the ivory soap so that's a good thing.
 
 
    ~Your thoughts on Ivory’s value (Ivory is one of the least expensive bars and body washes on a per oz basis!)
 
      I don't buy soap often so I can't really say anything about the prices of the value. What I do know is that I now love using ivory. I'll be looking forward into more ivory products!

Bogus Speaker

My husband and I was just at Walmart yesterday and came upon a speaker that was dangling on the side of the shelf at the game section. We're crazy mofo about speakers so we decided to get it just to see if it was loud enough since someone at his workplace took his good speakers. On the back, it stated, no batteries required which was a big plus for us. It was around $4 so what could possibly hurt?

On the way home, my husband played some music. The first one was very loud, and the next one was crappy. I was like whoa....did you plug in the speaker on the first one? That was very loud. The replied??? Honey, that was your galaxy player. The crappy one was the speaker. A huge big difference between them. Now I'll just stick to the bomb speaker instead since it's louder. I'll be returning the speaker that we bought.

This is a crappy product and a waste of money. It's even worth it to buy and I highly recommend the bomb speaker over it!!!


These 2 pictures are taken by me!

Influenster Mom Voxbox June 2012

This week have been pretty busy for me. Just yesterday when I check the mail, I didn't realize that the mom voxbox had been sent out and got mine yesterday. I was really surprised since I wasn't expecting it anytime soon! So here's what I received:


*Stash Superfruit tea sample + natural honey sweetner
*Quaker soft baked oatmeal cookie
* Ivory soap bar
*Dvd demo- Dino Lingo
*Dentek floss for kids and adult- 3floss in each pack
*Impress nail manicure


I was really excited to see the impress nail manicure in the mom voxbox as I've seen them at the store but didn't buy it since they're pretty pricy. I didn't really want to spend $6 or so on just nails that works for one time only but now, I get the chance to test this out and see if it's really worth it to buy.

For the stash tea, I'm not really a fan of tea but I'll give the sample to my in laws to try it out. The Quaker oatmeal's really soft and moist enough. It's not too dry and just perfect. My 2 1/2 year old son wouldn't share it with me but I got to nibble on some crumbs which was really really good. As for the Dentek floss, both are coated in floride. The kids one are small enough for your little's one mouth; you know regular kids one are as big as the adults one but this one's just the perfect size!

The last one is the demo dvd which I can not review since all I see are just 18 minutes of someone's vacation pictures. It didn't have anything to do with the cover of the dvd. I just e-mail influenster today about it and still waiting for a reply back.





On the video below, it's whats in the dvd demo. I'm just showing that it have nothing to do with the dvd covered.
