Campbells Go (TM) Soup

I received a free sample of the New Campbell’s Go Moroccan Style Chicken with Chickpeas Soup in exchange for my honest feedback.

The Campbell’s Go Moroccan Style Chicken with Chickpeas Soup was delicious. I found many details that made this soup not only delectable and but found myself constantly craving for more! The packaging was very thought out and made well with the pouch being able to go right into your microwave for easy cooking and clean up!

Here are several Pros I liked about Campbell’s Go Moroccan Style Chicken with Chickpeas Soup:
  • The vegetables tasted extremely fresh.
  • The Chicken was made of Real White Meat Chicken Breast.
  • The spices were bold and exciting.
  • The packaging was made to easily warm up and eat anywhere.
  • The packaging goes directly into the microwave making it perfect for work/school lunches.
  • It’s very affordably priced.
  • The Campbell’s Go Soup’s state they serve about 2 people in each one but had much more in my opinion.
The Campbell’s Go Moroccan Style Chicken and Chickpea Soup had a sweetness with a strong kick. If you like a sweet and spicy mix with perfectly even notes you will love this soup! If it’s a cold winter night, your sick and craving a bowl of soup, just a soup person, or just like to try new foods, the Campbell’s Go Moroccan Style Chicken and Chickpea Soup is an absolute winner in my book!

Centrum Flavor Burst Multivitamin Chews

I received a free sample of the Centrum Flavor Burst Multivitamin Chews in Grape Flavor in exchange for my honest feedback.

I have always hated taking multivitamins because they are normally large pills and I notice I get terrible burps at times where I taste the vitamins all day long! But since I am a mother of two school aged boys and they are constantly bringing home every germ they come in contact with at school I find myself always sick unless I take some kind of vitamin, so I though I would give this a try. Let’s face it, I’m not getting any younger and the older I get the more my body needs vitamins!

I’m so glad I did! The sample came with two grape flavored vitamins. I took them in the morning so that I could see if I had any stomach issues. When I took them I immediately loved that they were chewy like candy. They also were sweet and the grape flavor reminded me of a grape skittle but a little bit chewier. Although they were chewy it was too chewy and didn’t take long to break them down enough to swallow them.

Hours into the day I did even remember that I had taken them which was pleasant being my past experiences with multivitamins made sure to remind me that I had taken them for hours! I was continued on with my day with a smile. Before I knew it bed time came and I couldn’t believe that I still had no stomach problems at all! No nausea, stomach ache, burps, nothing! I have tried many different brands of multivitamins and have never had a good experience. I never thought I would be able to take normal multivitamins. Even when I was pregnant the only vitamins I was able to handle were children’s chewable vitamins.

Since my experience with Centrum Flavor Burst Multivitamins I have purchased a bottle and started taking them daily. I have been taking them for a couple of days and I am still having nothing but great results. I have also recommended my husband to take them and he enjoys them as well. I am very happy that I was able to find a multivitamin that my body could handle taking on a daily basis. I have recommended many people to try them as well and I have also posted this information on my Facebook and Twitter accounts. I am so excited to let others know and hopefully I will be able to help someone else become healthier that was in the same situation as I was in. I am now convinced that not all multi-vitamins are created equal!

CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation

I received a coupon to redeem for a bottle of the New CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation in exchange for my honest feedback. 

After reviewing the different colors that were available I selected the Natural Tan 860 and felt this color would best match my face. When I returned home I immediately washed my face so that I could try my new foundation. After washing my face I applied L’Oreal’s BB Cream and then L’Oreal’s RevitaLift Miracle Blur. I opened the bottle of CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation because other foundation’s I have used in the past didn’t have the pump feature that this bottle has. I dabbed a little bit of foundation in several areas of my face and then blended it into my face first using my fingertips and then finishing with a sponge applicator paying close attention to under my eyes and around my jawbone making certain that it was blending well. I was impressed with how well it blended with my natural color and the matte finish it left my face with. 

The next day I was going on a 12 hour field trip with my son and his 2nd grade class. This would be the real test if this foundation could last a full 12 hours in sunny Florida, with the humidity, at an amusement park. I went through the same steps I had taken the day prior when applying the CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation. I also applied my Mineral’s loose powder that I normally wear, as well as a little bronzer on my cheeks and eye area and finished with clear gloss.
Several hours into the field trip we all had stopped to take a bathroom break. I went to grab my powder out of my bag as a habit of needing to refresh my makeup during the day, but when I went to apply it I noticed I didn’t need to and put it away. A couple of hours later, after lunch, I went to the rest room again. When I looked in the mirror the only thing missing was my gloss! I was very impressed, but still had my doubts. As the day went on it became very hot, it was the middle of April and it happened to be a very hot day. Although I was sweating from the heat my makeup was still withstanding the day. At the end of the day when I returned home and went to go wash my face I took a few minutes to stare at my reflection in amazement with the reality of the situation; my makeup looked almost identical to what it did when I applied it that morning. Not only did the CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation prove to be all that is in its name by outlasting the day and staying fabulous but the bronzer I applied that morning was also nearly perfect. My bronzer has never made it a few hours into my day before which made it clear that the foundation was an excellent primer as well.  

I have now been using the CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous for over 2 weeks and I am still amazed at the end of each day. I’ve also noticed that more and more I am leaving the makeup bag at home, because I don’t need to refresh my face several times a day as I use to have to do. I can be confident that when I apply my makeup, it will outlast even me!

Here are some Pros and Cons about the New CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation:

Pros:
·         It works well as a primer, making sure your other makeup stays on all day too
·         It has an amazing matte finish
·         It blends well with your natural skin color
·         It stays where you apply it all day long for outlasting results
·         Evens your skin tone, giving you a smooth look

Cons:
·         It didn’t work well for me as a concealer on darker blemishes
·         It dries quickly which may not be suitable for everyone
·         It isn’t very moisturizing for people with dry skin; but great for people with oily skin

L'Oreal RevitaLift Miracle Blur

I received a free sample of L’Oreal’s New RevitaLift Miracle Blur in exchange for my honest feedback.

When I first received it in the mail I was excited by all the different benefits it had for my skin and was very anxious to try it. As a mother of two boys I can assure you that my skin isn’t what it once was before kids; daily stress, aging and make-up use doesn’t help my skin look any better either! The next day when I was getting ready to leave the house for the day I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to try it out. My skin was fresh out of the shower clean and dry to my combination skin I must first apply some kind of skin care moisturizer. I applied L’Oreal’s new BB Cream which I also received as a sample. I then applied the RevitaLift Miracle Blur to only half of my face. I noticed that the lines around my eyes, my smile lines, and my dark circles around my eyes, were all noticeably improved. I took the time to see if my husband could point out which side of my face had the RevitaLift Miracle Blur applied and which side only had the L’Oreal BB Cream. He was able to point out the side that had the L’Oreal RevitaLift Miracle Blur immediately. I was very impressed. I continued with my make-up regimen as normal of course making sure to apply the RevitaLift Miracle Blur to the other side of my face first.

We then left the house for the day, our first stop was church. The real proof came after service when I ran into a friend, she noticed that my facial appearance seemed younger and more refreshed looking. I took the compliment with a smile and shared my secret with her. She was grateful for the tip and couldn’t wait to try it herself after seeing how flawless my skin looked. This isn’t an easy task in our state of sunny and humid Florida. I’m lucky if my face continues to look nice after even leaving the house. But getting a compliment hours after applying the RevitaLift Miracle Blur let me know that not only did it seem to smooth out my lines and give me a flawless appearance but it was able to withstand the humidity and heat as well.  

I have now been using L’Oreal’s RevitaLift Miracle Blur for about two weeks and these are the Pros and Cons I found during my experience: 

Pros:
  • Immediately gives your face a flawless look
  • Smooth’s out fine lines and wrinkles
  • Helps with dark circles under your eyes
  • Stays looking flawless and giving you coverage for hours
Cons:
  • Seems to leave a sleek finish on your face which could make it difficult if you applied it over your eye brow area and then want to fill in your eye brows
  • It has a scent, I didn’t mind the smell but others may
  • It will burn your eyes if you get it to close so be sure to use caution if you will be applying it near your eye area
  • Although there are a couple of Cons I don’t believe any of them outweigh the Pros of L’Oreal’s RevitaLift Miracle Blur. I haven’t found a product that has come close to giving my skin such a flawless look. I am very satisfied with the product.
