StarLooks November 2012 Monthly Subscription Box Review

Life According To GreenVics Review

I felt as if Starlooks November Monthly Subscription Box was created specifically for me. This months theme was "Nasty Girl," these are shades I would've picked out too.  I like earthy tones, browns, greens, even silvers, and bronze.  

As you can see I have fair skin, and dark hair.  The tendergloss lipstick I received compliments my dark features perfectly.  The lipstick made my lips soft from being a moisturizing gloss.  I like that I still look "natural," and not too glam.  

The browshader came with four different colors.  I really do like the pigments.  They went on easily, blended no problem.  Mostly, I liked that this Nasty Girl look, looked good on me. Lol

If you don't know what Starlooks.com is, it's a Monthly subscription box that costs $15.00.  Usually the boxes come with 3-4 items.  I really enjoy these monthly boxes because it's something fun to do, and use.  Especially since sometimes I'm just not feeling like I'm "pretty," and the kids sucking my essence dry.  It reminds me I can still doll myself up, and get out side my comfort zone.  This box is helping me try things I would have never thought of trying before.

You can check out my Reviews for September, and Octobers Starlooks past monthly boxes too.  They've all been so much fun.  I'm looking forward to Decembers box!! 

Welly, welly, welly, welly, welly, well. To what do I owe this extreme pleasure of this surprising visit? 

Not sure if I was using the tool right, but when placed like this, I then applied mascara, and my eyelashes are already long, but I did make them look even longer after applying and useing the other side of the brush to brush them apart. 

Each box also comes with a quartz crystal.  The idea is to collect enough crystals to create a brush holder with them.  I can't wait til I have enough.  

I received this makeup for free for my honest review.  You can check Starlooks out at Starlooks.com, Subscribe on Youtube, Like on Facebook and Follow on Twitter.

Also if there is a beauty lover in your family this would be a fantastic monthly gift!!  I just adore this monthly box.  It's always so playful.

These are fun monthly boxes.  Maybe you are a person that likes to mix things up, and try an abundance of new things.  Plus, the products are always top notch.  

The clear quartz smaller crystals in the front are the crytals Starlooks sends in their monthly boxes. I collect a lot of things! These are completely perfect for my personality. I'm all for positive energy that helps me focus! 

I don't have enough crystals to hold my brushes yet but I am getting there.

{ Review } Diet Doc Pre-Packaged Weight Loss Food Review.

I am always trying to find healthier food alternatives. Diet doc has created 20 calorie packets. I received the Diet Doc Chili, Chicken Gumbo, Thai Chicken. I just added chicken and vegetables to the packs, some water, boiled, and it was done. It tastes great, and it goes well with the hCG diet plan. I also liked that things like this have a long shelf life.

Diet Doc also makes fabulous weight loss bars, shakes , “fatless” cooking oil and salad dressings that are perfectly formulated for the hCG diet. The Diet Doc food is so tasty that you’ll enjoy our food even if you’re on another weight loss diet or are not dieting at all.

You might be asking, “What is the hCG diet?” The hCG diet was initially created over 60 years ago by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons where hi s patients achieved rapid weight loss when the human-produced hCG hormone was given in a low dose, coupled with a 500 calories per day diet. Diet Doc is the only modern day version of the hCG weight loss diet. The doctors at Diet Doc took the original Dr. Simeons’ hCG diet protocol and updated it to one where dieters consume no less than 800 calories per day in conjunction with prescription level hCG injections or sublingual tablets. Each dieter also consumes hCG diet foods, weight loss shakes and weight loss oil specifically created for an hCG diet.

The Diet Doc weight loss program is a medical weight loss diet program in which each person receives a comprehensive medical review of his/her health history to make sure that they are a good candidate for the Diet Doc diet. I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

StuckOnYou.com Personalized Items Review

So I eat personalized items like this up.. like they are marzipan..  The quality of the transfers on the items were some of the best I've seen. Even better than things you buy in store.  Great customer service! I really dig this company a lot. 

I received an insulated lunchbox, stainless steel BPA free water bottle, growth chart, stickers & pencils.  

The growth chart is personalized with my little mans name, and his birthday December 9, 2010.  Yes! His birthday is coming up, and he will be.. the dreaded ever-so-terrible two year old.. that my mom wished upon me when I was a not so nice older teen "Just wait til you have kids, I hope they act just like you." The growth chart also comes with stickers, and events to place on it in case you don't want to write all over it.  I am going to be painting on mine that way I'll have it forever.  It's made of really durable canvas! 

There are so many extra personalized stickers that come with the pencils.  Look at the aliens! I LOVE IT!

{ Review & Giveaway } Umi Shoes Review & Giveaway!! $60.00 Gift Certificate.

2012 Holiday Gift Guide, Review & Giveaway!! 

Recently I was sent Umi Shoes Bodi in Navy for free to review!  Look at how beautiful these Ultra Soft Suede kids shoes are.  Every time I get shoes for my 1 year old I make sure they are flexible, and breathable for his feet.  When I received these shoes I did the "bend" test.  To see how flexible they were.  I was pleased with the flexibility, and the color of the shoes.  Also, these are velcro straps, and super easy to put on.

We decided to take the shoes to the park to test them in an all out, chase around, climb on, swing, run, kick the leaves Review.

As you can see, these Umi Shoes were even flexible enough for Sy to climb up the steps at the playground. 

These Umi Bodi Shoes passed all Kid Tests we ran at the Playground.  

Umi's motto is, a little love for little feet™

These shoes retail for $60.00, and if you don't like this pair, there are so many options on the website.  Even some fantastic shoes in clearance.  The little girls shoes are so adorable.  They make me wish I had a little girl too.  Tho, I must say, these boy shoes for Bodi are very handsome.  I like the fact that he can play in them, and I'm going to dress him up in his Birthday/Christmas outfit and have photos done.  These are the shoes I'm using! So, really they are very versatile.  I'm not one to buy shoes based upon "name," I like to buy shoes that are a better alternative than the shoes with hard soles, and no flexibility.  What's the point in teaching your children to walk correctly if the shoe doesn't even have ANY give.  These are differently one of my favorite shoes.

{ Review } Noxicare Natural Pain Relief

This is my second review for Noxicare.  I have been using Noxicare Natural Pain Relief cream for a few months now.  I have to say that I really am enjoying it during these colder months.  Personally, it does help with the nerve damage in my left leg.  My routine consists of taking a hot bath, and then I apply the noxicare pain relief cream.  

I like that I could not smell the cream, and that it feels just like lotion.  I also like that it dulls the nerve pain from my ORIF in my left leg.   Every body is different, but I enjoy using natural creams like this, that are affordable.  

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

{ Giveaway } GoatMilkStuff.com Review & Giveaway $20.00 Certificate

These soaps are made of natural fats, oils, and no dyes.  Now imagine the smell! They smell sooo good, and the little drawstring bags the full, and half size bars come in are such a wonderful touch. These Soaps are made from Goat Milk Stuff.  I also have so much respect for the Jonas Family.  Goats Milk Stuff is a family ran, and operated business.  They raise the alpine goats, and make the soaps together.  I think that would be fun! A lot of dirty, hard work, but look at the art work they call soap.  It really is art work.

They have more than just soaps too.  The soaps, and lip balm I received to review were(BTW We loved them ALL,)

Full Bar: Ginger Lime 

Half Bar: Lemongrass 

Half Bar: Black Raspberry

Lip Balm: Lime

Samples: Almond, Fiji Island & Ocean

Image from GoatMilkStuff.com, Look at those colors!

The soap lathers beautifully, I absolutely adored the Black Raspberry.  I'm going to have to get that in a full bar!! But the half bar was pretty easy to use, and my toddler even liked the smell.  I'm a firm believer in what I use on my kids skin should be the same thing I use on mine.  

Image from GoatMilkStuff.com This is the Jonas Family! 

I'd like to thank the Jonas Family for making such wonderful soap!! For caring about others skins, and providing a product that is made from respect for ones skin, and for the animals! Thank you Goats too!

Here is a picture of my little man loving up on a goat.  Every time I bathe him and use the goats milk stuff soap I tell him That's goat milk!
