Truvia Natural Sweetener

I received a sample of Truvia Natural Sweetener in exchange for my honest feedback.

I have tried a few natural sweeteners and never really cared for any of them so when I was excepted to try this sample I must admit I wasn’t sure if I would like it at all. I drink chamomile tea almost every night to help calm me and get me ready for a good nights rest. I decided to switch my regular sugar I would normally use with the Truvia Sample I received.

Here are a few key points that I found while trying Truvia:

First, I was surprised that I didn’t have to use nearly as much Truvia as I normally use with sugar in order to get my tea to the sweetness I like.

Second, I noticed that there really wasn’t much of a difference at all in the taste of Truvia to sugar, if anything Truvia has more flavor than regular sugar does. After drinking my nightly tea I was convinced that not all natural sweeteners are equal. Although my experience with some of the other brands hadn’t been good Truvia was amazing! I’ve been told that many natural sweeteners only taste good when using them to bake but I would have no problem sprinkling Truvia on my fruit because it taste that good!

Third, Truvia has zero-calories and comes from leaves so it’s better for you than other alternative sweeteners. This was one fact that I really liked about Truvia.

All in all, If you have tried a few natural sweeteners and haven’t had a good experience or if you haven’t tried them but have been wanting to, do yourself a favor and go for the Truvia! You will be happy you did!

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Towelettes Ultra Soft Clothes

I really like Neutrogena and I've always had some great experiences with their products so far. I was at Target shopping one day and had come to their skincare aisle; I saw that the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Towelettes Ultra Soft Clothes Twin pack were on sale, since I trust Neutrogena’s skincare line so far I decided to try it out.

I liked Neutrogena Makeup Remover Towelettes Ultra Soft Clothes, If I was rating this item from 1-5 (5 being the best and 1 being the worst) I would rate it a 4. They are very soft for the most sensitive skin and remove my make-up with ease! The only reason I would give it a 4 is because I wasn’t crazy about the smell. It had a cucumber scent (I believe), although I like cucumber melon scent on many things I can now honestly say I really don’t like it on my face! I normally wash my face after using the towelettes and basically use them to ensure that all my make-up is removed before I wash my face so I don’t really have to smell them for too long. I would recommend them to anyone, the smell may be something that only bothers me and it’s hard to find great make-up removing towelettes that are this sensitive!

Here are some Pros and Cons I found with this product.

Pros:

• They come in a easy to use pouch which is great for traveling.
• They are very sensitive on skin.
• They are gentle enough to use near your eye area.
• Each towelette is a perfect size to use on any face!
• Using disposable clothes are a great way to keep your skin healthy and prevent breakouts!

Cons:

• I personally wasn’t crazy about the scent.

So as you can see from my pros and cons list Neutrogena Makeup Remover Towelettes Ultra Soft Clothes are a great buy! Feel free to ask me any questions and thanks for reading!

 

Cottonelle FreshCare Flusable Cleansing Cloths

I received a sample of the new Cottonelle FreshCare Flusable Cleansing Cloths in exchange for my honest feedback.

I have used several other personal bathroom cleansing cloths in the past and I have never liked the design of the dispenser they come in. Some say the stick to your wall, others say they keep your cloths moist, but I still haven’t found any that had everything I would want from a personal bathroom wipe. What is it that I am looking for? I would want a cleansing cloth that is tuff and wouldn’t rip while I was using it, I would want one that had a great scent, one that had an easy dispenser, a dispenser that was easy to reach and kept my wipes moist at all times, one that was safe to flush and that went with all of my bathroom decor no matter what it was. Well, I just described the New Cottonelle FreshCare Flusable Cleansing Cloths! It has it all! Best of all it looks as if it is smiling at you while sitting nicely on your bathroom counter or where ever you may need them.

Although they may be used mainly in the bathroom don’t underestimate this cloth! It can be used in your childs play room for easy clean up, in your kitchen to wipe down your baby after feedings, anywhere you may need to clean up quickly is where this cloth can come in handy! Best of all, it’s sleek dispenser design makes you feel comfortable having it anywhere in your home. Not just in your bathroom. So, think outside the box for easy everyday clean up and pick up your own Cottonelle FreshCare Flushable Cleansing Cloths.

Dr. Scholl's ® For Her Comfort Insoles

 I received this product complimentary in return for my honest review. Dr. Scholl’s for Her Comfort Insoles: Retail for $12.49

These insoles are amazing! This is coming from a woman that loves her heels but hate what it does to her feet! I also have two bad knees but still haven’t learned my lesson and continue to indulge in my love for shoes, mainly heels are my true love! I think this comes from me only being 5’1 and wanting that extra couple of inches that heels give me. So when I decided to try Dr. Dr. Scholl’s For Her Comfort Insoles I was hoping these insoles would be the solution to my problems with heels and shoes in general! I like that Dr. Scholl’s For Her Comfort Insoles can be used in a variety of shoes, from heels to boots these insoles will come in handy! They absorb the shock and impact on your heel of your foot and helps to protect the ball of your foot area. They also give my knees the pain relief I truly hoped for!

Here are some tips for keeping your insoles in good condition:

• Make sure you wipe down your Dr. Scholl’s for Her Comfort Insoles after you remove them from your shoes and before you insert them into another pair. This will make sure they keep there adhesiveness.
• When your not using your Dr. Scholl’s For Her Comfort Insoles keep them in a zip lock bag, this will make sure that dirt, lint, and/or anything else, wont ruin your insoles by coming into contact with them.They will be ready for the next time you are ready to use them!
• These work best in shoes that have sides to them. If you wear them with open sandal’s you will see the sides on the Dr. Scholl for Her Comfort Insoles a little. They are clear so if you have a wide foot they may not show as much. These insoles only cover 3/4 of your foot so you wont see them near your toe area.

So if you are like me and are in need of some extra comfort in your flats, boots, heels or anything else you put on your feet Dr. Scholl’s For Her Comfort Insoles may be the answer to your prayers!

Tips:

Make sure you wipe down your Dr. Scholl's for Her Insoles after you remove them from your shoes and before you insert them into another pair. This will make sure they keep there adhesiveness.

TruMoo Chocolate Milk

I received my free vouchers to try Trumoo Milk in the mail in exchange for my honest feedback. It was delivered with great timing since it was shopping day and I was heading out to go grocery shopping (go figure).

First, I would like to say that we normally make our own flavored milk with chocolate syrup so we were new to Trumoo. When I returned home with the groceries in hand, walked into the house and I spotted my youngest looking at me, he always knows that when I go grocery shopping I normally bring home snacks and things he loves. My son loves milk, so when I returned home with Trumoo’s Chocolate and Strawberry Milk and he spotted the containers through the bags (he knows what milk containers look like no matter what kind they are) he ran towards me with excitement! Scared I was going to be tackled I surrendered the Gallon and Half Gallon over to my 8 year old and watched him check out what they were, quickly snatch a cup from the cabinet, pour a large cup of chocolate milk, and gulp it down! He has seen the Trumoo Milk Containers at the grocery store and has asked me in the past for them so he was very excited to see he finally got what he had been asking for. In only a couple of days he has managed to go through over half the gallon alone, milk lover is an understatement. With Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, my little boy is now complete with his new best friend, the Trumoo Chocolate Milk Gallon!

My oldest son was allergic to milk when he was growing up and never really became a fan (he has now grown out of his allergy), knowing how he isn’t much of a fan of milk (and because I was never a fan of regular milk myself) I decided to purchased the Trumoo Strawberry milk for him and myself to try (which was the only way you could get me to drink milk growing up). Of course my 12 year old was reluctant and continued to argue with me about his true hatred for milk. I finally convinced him to try the Trumoo Strawberry Milk and loved the smirk that was left on his face after his first swallow! His face said it all “Mom, you were right, this milk is amazing!” Isn’t this what all of us Mom’s wait centuries to hear from our kids? I humbly smiled and let it be with a hug, but in the back of my mind I was thinking “Wow, I just got him not only to drink milk but to enjoy it?!?”

Since then I have caught him on numerous occasions sneaking in the kitchen for a glass of Trumoo Strawberry Milk. I went to get myself a glass this morning and noticed there was only a little left. I guess both my boys are now Trumoo Milk lovers!

Thanks Trumoo, you saved me from ever having to buy another bottle of Vitamin D for my oldest son and you made me a hero with my youngest son! Trumoo rocks!
