Ben & Jerry's Greek Yogurt Review AND GIVEAWAY!!!

Did you know Ben & Jerry's has Greek Frozen Yogurt now!? At almost a 3rd of the calories for regular ice cream!  One lucky fan will win a Swag Prize Pack of Ben & Jerrys Free Product Coupons, and gifts.  I received 3 Free Ben & Jerry's coupons, an ice cream lock top (It's really cute,  and does lock the lid shut for a pint.) Also a really nifty Ice Cream Scooper that  scoops rock hard ice cream.  Along with a Ben & Jerry's Pint Size Cozy Cover for the Ice Cream itself.  You know.. just incase it's too cold to hold, haha.

The frozen yogurt we decided to try were;

• Vanilla Greek Frozen Yogurt with a Honey Caramel Swirl Vanilla Honey Caramel.
• Pineapple Greek Frozen Yogurt with Chunks of Pineapple & a Passionfruit Swirl Pineapple Passionfruit.
• Lemon Greek Frozen Yogurt with a Blueberry Lavender Swirl Liz Lemon.

We enjoyed all the new Greek Yogurt Flavors.  My favorite was the Pineapple Ice Cream.  There was chunks of pineapple in it, with swirls of passion fruit.  It was a great small treat.  The Pineapple Ben & Jerrys Frozen Yogurt Ice Cream is only 180 calories for a half cup.  It's milky like ice cream, and still sweet.  The hubby enjoyed the other 2 pints.  I know when he likes something.. by the way he eats it all, and doesn't talk while eating it.  Haha.  He's on a diet too, and he's lost weight this week as well.  We believe anything in moderation is OK.  

You can find other choices by going to the Ben & Jerry's Flavors Freezer online.  There is also a Ben & Jerry's Locator in case there is a certain flavor you are just vying to try, and can't find it in your store.   There are a lot new flavor combinations for Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream.  You'd be surprised that your old favorite, may not be your new favorite.  There is even Cannoli Ice cream now!! Move over Cherry Garcia.. you were my favorite..

BeautyStopOnline.com Review for HEMPZ Body Wash & Lotion

I believe skin care is extremely important.  Age does not matter.  Old, young, newborn, or even in the womb.  We need certain vitamins for healthy cells.  We really need to take care of our skin.  I am a huge advocate of natural oils, vitamins, and remedies.  I turn 31 in a few months, and I have always liked to bathe in oils like the egyptians.  I also moisturize myself every time I get out of the water.  

BeautyStopOnline.com is a great site to purchase beauty products at almost half off other stores prices. They have all the name brands, and then some.   I was pleased at how easy it is to browse the site.  There is even a Natural & Organic tab.

I received HEMPZ Pure Herbal Extracts Vanilla Plum Moisturizer, and HEMPZ Jasmine Peach & Wild Rose Body Wash from Beauty Stop Online to review.    

Hempz Jasmine Peach & Wild Rose Body Wash really surprised me.  I was expecting it to smell overly floral, but really, it has a sweet peach aroma with a light touch of jasmine, and rose that still lingers on the skin once out of the shower.  I was in the mood for a bubble bath, so I squirted just a little bit into the tub.  It bubbled quickly, and lasted the duration of the bath.  

Hempz Pure Herbal Extracts Vanilla Plum Moisturizer has made me back burner all my other lotions at this moment.  As you can see by my image, it's all I've been using the last week, and a half.  The scent is not strong (Which is why I like it.) I don't like overly vanilla scents, and this does not have that.  The vanilla gives the plum more of a deep, sweet, creamy scent while heated, and rubbed into the skin.  When I smell my skin, I can smell it, and really, that is what I want.  I want to be moisturized, and to smell good for myself, and the one I love.  I don't think everyone should be able to smell me from afar.  

I have been feeling good about myself lately.  Between the weight loss, and my skin feeling beautiful, and I do have to admit.  My skin is pretty flawless right now.  

This is how much weight I've lost.  I have a few inches extra in my pants now. So skin care right now is a MUST.  I must hydrate, and moisturize as I am shedding those pounds so that I stay firm as I'm toning.  It can be done, and I am doing it.  I am down 30 lbs by just going the healthier, alternative way since last summer.

I also wanted to disclose,  HEMPZ does NOT contain any THC.  Hemp seed oil is a fantastic, oil.  And I wish more people were accepting of it.  Hemp seed contains Omega 6 and Omega 3 fatty acids.  It's composition is similar to skin lipids. It has been known to increase the skin elasticity and water retention capacity in skin tissue.  Hemp oil also helps to calm irritated skin, and to energize.  Little history for you, in 1916 all farmers were forced to grow hemp in the United States, it was a huge cash crop during the war.  It wasn't until 1937 that it became illegal.  Hemp is a harmless plant, that is full of vitamins, amino acids, it can even be used for clothing, paper, and FUEL.  It's also easy to grow.  Really? Why be against Hemp again? Once again, all opinions are my own, and I do stand behind natural beauty products.  These are my favorite types of reviews.

Stonz Wear Rain Boots Review 100% Natural Rubber

Silas is quite the little man of the forest in his Kids Stonz Wear Rain Bootz!  I can't believe how big my baby boy is getting.  These are his first rain boots.  What makes these boots awesome is, they are 100% Natural Rubber Rain Boots.  Another great thing about these Boots that I noticed is that they could bend easily with his natural gait, and he did not trip over them.  He could even climb  a tree trunk in them.  They were also ideal as he ran through leaves and moist soil.  I am so happy that the snow finally melted.

This is the first year that he's big enough to go out, and enjoy nature without falling all over himself.  He knows he's looking so cool, and fresh in his new Stonz Rain Bootz in Blue/Black.  Look at him checking himself out!  

Shipping Wise, they were delivered fast, and in a cute litttle re-usable bag.  It was the perfect little gift bag.  I wouldn't even wrap this if I were giving it as a gift to someone.  Instead of them wasting money on shipping materials, the Rain boots were mailed directly in the tote bag with tissue paper, and just a plastic bag.  I thought that was ingenious, and completely not a waste of packing material! Two thumbs up, and an abundance of kudos!  

Overall Impression of StonzWear.com Rain Boots:  They are durable, bright beautiful blue, and true to fit for the size I needed for my Toddler.  Well worth the $35.99.  

Below are a list of Top 12 Reasons why you should check out Stonz Wear Rain Bootz:

1. 100% Natural Rubber 
2. Durable
3. Tear resistant
4. Flexible
5. Comfortable 
6. Quick dry 
7. 100% cotton liner 
8. PVC-free 
9. Phthalate-free 
10. Lead-free 
11. Formaldehyde-free
12. Because they are Cute

Love how Shiny Parnevu T-Tree Shampoo, Conditioner, and Braid Spray made my hair!

My hair enjoyed, and soaked up the benefits of Parnevu Tea Tree Oil.  I grow my hair out for Locks Of Love.  This will be the 4th Time Donating, and it's already to my waist.  I donated 11 inches almost 2 years ago.  I am happy to say from taking care of it, keeping it trimmed and using natural shampoos I have 10+ more inches to donate again.   

What I really liked about Parnevu's T-Tree Shampoo is the natural scent of the Australian T-Tree.  It also lathers a lot, and that made it extremely easy to massage into my scalp.  T-Tree is great for a healthy scalp! I then used Parnevu for Extra Dry Hair After Shampoo Conditioner.  The Conditioner was thick, and even after my hair absorbed it I could still feel the silky texture while rinsing it all the way out.  I sprayed Parnevu's T-Tree Braid Spray in my hair while it was wet, then let it dry.  Once it was dried I sprayed a little more in, and braided my hair.  Since my hair is long now, and I usually just braid it in one long braid, and that's it.  I don't think of my hair as my own anymore, I think I am taking care of it to give to someone else that really needs it.  

My overall impression of Parnevu was it cleaned my scalp and hair great.  Moisturized to where my hair was shiny.   Before I used the Shampoo, Conditioner, and Spray my hair was dull, and weighed down.   I noticed after I used it my hair was brighter, shinier, and had more natural wave to it.   I'm a huge fan of Leave in Sprays, and the Braid Spray is a better alternative.  It's T-Tree Oil.  Most leave in sprays create itching, and flakes.  Parnevu's T-Tree Braid Spray helps control itching, flaking, conditions and adds shine.  There is also a cool feeling on the scalp from the T-Tree. 

You can find Parnevu Online, Facebook, and Twitter.  Check them out!  If you have never tried T-Tree Oil you really should try Parnevu.  

Parnevu's T-Tree Shampoo is a unique blend of botanicals designed to cleanse the hair and scalp of impurities.  Contains Australian Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia.)  T-Tree Oil is great for itchy dry scalps, and eliminating flakes.  T-Tree Oil is also known to kill bacteria. What's not to love?!

Evol Foods has Gluten Free Bowls, and Burritos!

I don't cook as much as I used to, as in full meals since I'm on my diet.  My husband however is completely Gluten Free.  He has lost over 60 Lbs now since going Gluten Free.  Instead of bread we both eat Corn Tortilla Wraps.   So I was blown away when I saw EVOL Foods has Gluten Free Bowls, and Gluten Free Burritos now!  When he gets home from work later, He will be so happy to have a Chicken Enchilada Gluten Free Bowl, and A Side Salad.   I'm a fan of EVOL too!  It's full of protein, and fiber.  The Truffle Parmesan Mac & Cheese is on top for a reason..  

Don't forget to check out my Grilled EVOL Burritos Review by clicking Here,

I can completely do this again, grill some fruits, and vegetables up with the burritos, and still stick to my diets guide lines.  I know my family will be happy,  winter is gone, and I'm feeling the mood to grill some burritos. There were days that the husband couldn't eat dinner with us and I had to prepare something separate since he's Gluten Free.  With the new Evol Gluten Free Burritos I don't have to worry about that.  LOVE EVOL!

I received these to sample for my open, honest opinion.  I was not paid, or told what to say.  All images are my own.
