NeoCell Beauty Bursts Gourmet Collagen Soft Chews Review

I am a huge fan of these NeoCell Beauty Bursts Gourmet Collagen Soft Chews.  Not only do they taste great.  They are sweet like Fruit Punch.  Some chews that are packed full of vitamins are gritty, and leave a weird after taste.  These do not have that problem.  Like a regular chew it disolves quickly while chewing, and the taste really is a nice treat when you are counting calories, and exercising.  Not only do I get extra vitamins, collagen (skin rebuilders.) and, Skin Hydration, I also get a sweet treat.  My hair, nails, and skin have all benefited from using this the past month.  My nails I notice the most.  I am a nail biter, and they are growing pretty fast before I even have a chance to bite them.

There are 2,000 milligrams of Collagen in each Chew.  If you'd like to learn more about Neo Cells Beauty Bursts, you can read it by going clicking here.

Disclaimer: I received these items for free.  All opinions are my own. My overall impression of these chews were a positive one.  I turn 31 soon, and I am willing to try any supplements that will help my skin, nails, and hair as I lose this weight.  I have lost over 30 lbs since last July, and I am doing it the slow, but surely way.  Nothing is over night!! Just have to stick to a routine.  And, these chews have been in my routine for the last month.

Memory Making Season!

Making Spring Memories; Below is an easy way to cherish them, 

This time of the year is crazy, hectic for my family.  With everyone's birthdays in the same months, all through spring, and summer.  Then Graduations, Mother’s day, Father’s day.  It's even my Wedding Anniversary! Digital Photos, and Digital Picture Frames are the most easiest, convenient way to display things. Also, giving a preloaded frame as a gift to a family member is just beautiful to me.

This time of year is filled with moments when a smartphone camera just won’t do, which it is why it is essential to have the right camera with the right features. Fortunately, Best Buy can help. Head to Best Buy to find the perfect camera to capture all these moments.


Since the camera is important, so it the display of those digital images.  Best Buy has some of the highest rated Digital Picture Frames.  I bought one that was under $50.00.  I live in an apartment, and I don't nail, or stick a lot of things to my walls, so something like this is ideal.  It changes for me, and it's nice to always see every one.

There is even a special coupon offer for 25% off Select Digital Picture frames.  Find out more, and which frames by clicking here.

I think for whatever celebration, or even for each family member,  having one of these frames for each would be ideal, and just something different.  It would also save on film developing, and saving trees!


Best Buy can help you never miss the important moments with a wide assortment of the latest cameras, including DSLR cameras, action camcorders, and compact cameras with long zoom, low light and wi-fi.

With Best Buy’s low price guarantee, you’ll get the latest technology at the best price. Free shipping on all cameras on bestbuy.com.

Keruig Special Edition Brewing System Giveaway

Life According To GreenVics is excited to join Adventures of 8 and Blog with Mom in a new Advertise with Bloggers Event!

One lucky reader will WIN a Keruig from our friends at Massdrop, the newest way to buy online and save money!
Massdrop-Logo
Let me tell you a bit about Massdrop and how you can use this new site to save you MONEY!!! This is unlike any site I have seen before, as it works off of 'group buys' to offer the lowest price and YOU can vote for items you would like to have brought to Massdrop!

_W3T4341

Here is how it works - let's say you have always wanted a Keurig B60 Single-Cup Home-Brewing System, but didn't want to pay the high department store price, nor did you want to purchase a refurbished one. What you would do is VOTE to bring the Keurig B60 Single-Cup Home-Brewing System to Massdrop, then once the poll option gets at least 200 votes, they negotiate bulk pricing with the supplier and pass them on to the Massdrop community.
GettingYouTheDrop
This is where it gets really cool; THE MORE PEOPLE THAT PURCHASE the product, the lower the price!!!
JoinTheMassdrop
Basically, the sale goes on for seven days, it starts at a certain price and as more people purchase the item the lower the price goes, with up to 3 price drops unlocking until the lowest price available is offered... and in the end you will only be billed for the lowest price; cool, right? The funny thing is that when the community worked together for their first Keurig B60 group-buy, they cleared out all of North American inventory in just a few days.
Oh and a really neat thing is that if you don't see a product that you want, as a community member, you can create a product poll for anything from coffee makers cards to homebrew beer kits.

Go sign up for Massdrop now to see how awesome this site is, then come enter to win a BRAND NEW Keurig B60 Single-Cup Home-Brewing System!

PicturesOnGold.com Mothers Day Locket Review & Giveaway


Men!? Need a unique gift for the Mama in your life? These Mothers Day Lockets from Pictures On Gold are perfect.  I love mine!  Mine has my son, and I.  Then the inside is etched with his name, and birthday.  My favorite tho is the etched photo of us.  He just turned 2, and he may look angelic at times til he becomes hopping mad. Lol!

Creating the locket is as simple as using their Design Your Own Locket app.  It's a very cool website.  I love how easy it is to get something customized.  These are personal, photos of your family. Plus how sweet would it be to have the little ones help with the design process of the locket.  Then when they give  Mommy the gift, they can tell her all how they helped design it.  I would be beyond proud of my little man, and husband for thinking about me like that.  I still have the first Mothers Day card that my husband made our Son "write" his name, haha it's just a bunch of lines, but I love it so much.  This, and some flowers would totally make my day.

It was shipped to me within a couple of days!  In a very beautiful black jewelry box that has a black bow on the front too.

If this is something you'd be interested in getting a loved one,  now is the time to buy.  There is even a 10% off Mothers day code that is valid til 4/31/2013.  There are lots of different types of jewelry too.  The code is:  MOM13



Or, Call 877-703-1143

You can enter to win a Sterling Silver Mother’s Day "Mom with Children Heart" Locket along with an 18 inch Sterling Silver Box Chain.

Mothers Day Potted Yellow Rose Review

Disclaimer: I received Products for free to facilitate a review.  All opinions are my own.



I am a huge fan of plants.  Especially ones delivered to me? Alive?? That aren't cut!! I absolutely adore.  Don't get me wrong, I love beautiful fresh cut flowers too, but to me.. the love behind getting something with roots.. is by far the best.  These were delivered to me from ProFlowers.

While browsing the flowers, I kept asking my 2 year old "What flowers do you want to pick out for Mommy?" While all the plants were beautiful, the selection of Mothers Day Plants is huge.

The  hard part really is choosing which one I liked the most!  I really wanted an Orchid too but I didn't know how that would turn out with grabby little toddler hands.  I still would love one! *hint hint anyone that reads this that loves me, hahaha*



Ordering was extremely easy.    After falling for the Potted Yellow Roses I then had the choose which container I wanted.  I could have just got the container it came with that was free with the plant.  Tho, soon as I saw the yellow roses, with the Victorian Tin I just had to have that one.
Check out was easy, I chose 3 days from the order date to have it shipped.  It costs more to ship the next day, and on weekends.  I'm fine with a few days.  To me that is fast! Shipping is usually around $15.00, but keep into consideration, you are picking when you want it shipped (shipping prices vary.) Mine were mailed fast and I didn't pay the extra for rush.

 It also comes with a care instruction card.  First was to take the packing moss out, and give the plant some water.  I sat mine on the counter where it would get some direct light.

Seriously, start to browse, and I am sure there are a few you'd want for your home, and to give as gifts.  It was actually my cousin Liz's birthday this month.  Since I didn't get myself the Orchid, I bought Liz the Teacup Orchid with Chocolates.  That's how beautiful I think these gifts really are.  It was delivered to her in Baltimore, Md the day before her birthday (I chose that day!)

When I bought my cousin her birthday gift, I found some coupon codes right on the website to use for RedEnvelope Coupons.  Or try google searches, even searches on RetailMeNot.com.  I signed up for the emails, and I get % off codes that way too.

Disclaimer.  I received the Potted Yellow Roses for free from RedEnvelope to review.  All opinions are my own.  My personal experience with this company is a great one.  When it is something I really do like, I will buy from later on, and share with family, and friends.  To me, that is what life is about.  My roses made me happy, and the orchids I sent my cousin made her happy, and cry because I'm in Ohio, and shes in Maryland.  We miss eachother, but I know she loves plants too.
