Body Merry

I recently received two awesome Body Merry products to try free for review. The products I got were their Stretch Mark and Scar Defense Cream and Age Defense Eye Cream. I was extremely excited to try these products because after having three children I have horrible stretch marks which is nothing to be ashamed of but come on I'm sure every woman out there would like them to be less noticeable. Also I have a son and let's say he is a BOY, full of scars so he's also benefiting from this. I've battle with dark circles and puffiness under my eyes since high school. My nose was broken and I now have had two per extant black eyes, as I like to call them. 




First I tried the eye cream because I thought this was my main concern. It has a nice smooth texture to it, not thick or sticky. A small amount goes a long way with this. I'm always worried about the scent of any king of facial cream but I was very pleased as this eye cream smelled like a light mint. As soon as you put the cream on you feel it start to tingle. I started to notice a difference in puffiness in a bout 2 days and the dark circles after about a week of use. A few ingredients from this product are matrixyl 3000 & tripeptide-5, ocean based retinal, botanical hyaluronic acid, and pure plant oils. I would give this product 5/5 stars because it works well with fast results and has a affordable price point.




Next up was the unseen stretch marks I needed to tackle. My stretch marks are from three kids and yo-yo weight issues for the past 9 years. I have old, new, borrowed, and blue lol.... My stretch marks are as fresh a the past few months and as old as 9 years. I notice more a fading in my new stretch marks, the pinkish ones. But the older, silver ones, didn't help as much but I am noticing a difference. I think it will take a bit longer to fade the old than the new. This one also smelled great and had a lovely velvet cream texture to it. For stretch marks I give the product 4/5 stars.

I also used the stretch mark scar cream on my son knee where he has a huge scar from his leg being gashed open and a small scar on his chin. The scar on his chin is drastically faded after about 3 weeks of use. The scar on his knee since it is so deep and has a lot of scar tissue has only improved on the extreme edge sod the scar. Just as my older stretch marks I'm sure this scar would need a longer treatment time. Some the ingredients in this product are organic coco butter, shae butter, vitamins e + c + b3 + b5, and pure plant oils. For scars I give this products 4/5 stars.

All in all great products! The severity of the issues are will determine how quick and much results you will have. I would recommend this product for minor or major issues! It's very affordable and works great! This is my true and honest opinion of these products I received free to try.

Bash and Lucy



My children received a wonderful book to read with great lessons in it. I love when a book not only tells a story but also teaches a life lesson. Bash and Lucy Fetch Jealousy is perfect for my family right now. Having introduced a new baby to the household my two other children and dog have been feeling left out. This book helped them understand that sometimes you can let someone else get attention. Sometimes it's necessary for someone else to have more attention at a certain moment. We really enjoyed reading this book and we are so glad to have it in our own little library now.

Frosty VoxBox

This my friends is my FrostyVoxBox! I got all these goodies to try from Influenster for free in exchange for my honest opinion. I will be more than happy to share the good, the bad, and the ugly truths about the products in this box. #FrostyVoxBox

I will start with my favorite, the Rimmel Scandal Eyes water proof mascara. It last so long there is no need for touch ups. It applies very thick, dark, and creamy. The precise tips helped me line my eye lids for the first time. It was surprisingly easy compared to others I've tried with.#ScandalEyes
Next I'll review the Rimmel water proof mascara remover for sensitive eyes. I did not like it at all! It didn't do a better job than water alone so its pretty useless to me. As well as the fact that it burned my eyes and made them very red. I wouldn't recommend it at all.#Rimmel
Now for a product i wish i could afford! Boots No7! this stuff is amazing and made my face velvet soft. i wish i could have sampled it longer to see more of a difference in my skins condition. Overall i think this product works well! #GetADVANCED
Lets get to a few edible for a while, I think I'm hungry. I was never a tea drinker, never drink it well I've never tried it. I just thought it would be a disgusting thing so i never bothered. Well since i got this Celestial Tea to try i figured I'd give a shot. I was very pleasantly surprised by the taste. It had a peppermint flavor which was perfect for that chilly winter morning.#CelestialTea
