Green Mountain Three Continent Blend BzzKit

Green Mountain Coffee(R) Fair Trade Certified(TM)


Hey my lovelies!

What am I here to tell you about today? Oh nothing, just a little something called Green Mountain Fair Trade Certified Coffee. I know I talked to you about Green Mountain coffee before but this is the Three Continent blend. I got to try the Green Mountain Three Continent Blend K-Cups for free for being a BzzAgent… and of course… I am spreading the word about this amazing product.

First, I will say that I love Green Mountain Coffee, and the Three Continent blend is amazing! It is a mixture of Sumatra, South American, and Ethiopian coffees. The ever so delicious coffee blend has a nice amazingly bold aroma and an equally amazing flavor. It is bold and flavorful without being too strong or bitter. It goes down smoothly and helps keep you alert all day.

Second, I love that it is a Fair Trade Certified coffee.  Green Mountain is the number one buyer of Fair Trade Certified coffee beans of any seller on the market. Why is purchasing Fair Trade Certified coffee so important? When you buy Fair Trade Certified coffee you help the bean farmers get a fair price for their product… which in turn results in a better quality of live for the farmers, their families, and their community. The higher prices the farmers get for their beans help them build homes, community centers, and hospitals to improve their communities.

In researching, it seems that only about 38% of people are aware of what exactly Fair Trade Certified coffee is. The simple act of going out and buying a Fair Trade Coffee… which is not any more expensive than non-Fair Trade Certified… you can help the people who are providing you your morning cup of joe.

Green Mountain Fair Trade Certified coffee’s motto is Great Coffee, Good Vibes. Very true words. Get the coffee and send the good vibes out into the world.

That is all for now. Ta-Ta.

Buitoni Riserva BzzCampaign

Hey my People!

So… I know you are curious… What is Stephanie here to tell us about today?

Well, today I am going to tell you about one of my latest BzzCampaigns, Buitoni Riserva! I got coupon to try this product for free for being a BzzAgent. As I have told you time and time again, BzzAgent gives me the opportunity to  try products for free in exchange for my honest opinion.

And…. Honestly…. I love this prouct! I am not the biggest pasta fan. Dry pasta is for the birds. But the Buitoni Riserva, is simply amazing! With the fresh pasta and the delicious combination of filling, it is like eating at an Italian restaurant without paying a restaurant price.

The Riserva has a few different varieties:
-Crab Ravioli
-Spicy Beef and Sausage Ravioli
-Wild Mushroom Agnolotti
-Shrimp Scampi Ravioli
-Chicken Marsala Ravioli
-Butternut Squash Agnolotti

My favorite is the Wild Mushroom Agnolotti! I cooked it with a bacon alfrado and it was surprisingly fabulous! My least favorite was the Spicy Beef and Sausage Ravioli. It just wasn’t for me. And I will be honest… I didn’t even try the Butternut Squash Ravioli because I don’t like squash.

All in all, I highly recommend this product to EVERYONE! Don’t say you don’t like pasta until you try fresh pasta!

Q-Tip Precision Tips

Howdy!

Long time no type. Well, I am here today to talk to give you a little sliver of information about my Something Blue VoxBox from Influenster…. The Q-Tip Precision Tips!

Okay, First off,  Influesnter is an amazing site where you get to test a box full of amazing products for free and write reviews on them. For example… my entire VoxBox included two sets of Kiss everEZlashes, LusterNow! Toothpaste, Urgent RX Relief To-Go pack, Dr. Scholl’s for Her Ball of Foot insoles, and two packs of Q-Tip Precision Tips. Awesome Right!!! However today, like I said, we are going to talk about the Q-Tip Precision Tips.

The Q-Tip Precision Tips are the perfect item to keep in your make-up case at home and a staple to keep with you for your make-up needs on the go. They are designed specially for touch-ups and getting into small spaces and creases. The pointed, precision tip makes it the perfect accessory for all your make-up and nail needs. And, like all Q-tip products, are 100% cotton.

The tip is not exactly stiff, but it is durable enough to preform precision work on eyes and nails. I used them on my eye make-make up just today and they worked better than my actual eye liner brush. They also helped touch up my lipstick. I love love loved them! I also have a friend how have the Q-Tip Precision Tips to do zebra stripes on her nails. They looked amazing! I am totally doing it. But in personal experience with nail polish, they worked great at removing my little nail hickups. Unlike regular Q-tips, the Precision Tips helped me control exactly where I wanted to remove the nail polish errs, and not mar what I wanted to keep pretty.

So, to all you make-up savy girls this is a must have item. You can find them at any Wal-Mart, Target, CVS, or Walgreens… Even Amazon!  I highly recommend. For more information check out their website at: 



Ciao for now!

Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge BzzCampaign





Howdy Do Blog Peeps!

So I am here again today with more to talk to you about another of my newer BzzCampaigns, the Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge. For those of you who do not remember or who do not yet know, I am a Bzzagent and I got to try this product for FREE (in the form of a BzzCampaign) in exchange for my honest opinion and spreading the good word.

So… The Garnier Hydra Recharge! You’ve all seen the commercials. It claims that it keeps your hair soft, and weightless for two days. It also claims to moisturize in one minute. Well… Does it???

The verdict: YES!!!

I was completely surprised at how soft my hair was after using the Hydra Recharge Shampoo, Conditioner, and One Minute Moisture-Plenish. My hair is not exactly course, but it is not fine and manageable by all means. But, compared to other conditioners that I have used that promise the same kind of results, this one far exceeded my expectations.

As a few additional notes, the scent is very pleasant. I think it smells like pears and apples, and is very light… even though it is kiwi and gojo berries. (Sidebar… so happy I can use this because I typically allergic to kiwi). The shampoo is incredibly, INCREDIBLY thick and will last you forever because you need to use so little. Just make sure that your hair is very wet when you use it.

Wanna try? You know you do! Go to Garnier Hyrdra Recharge to get a $1.00 off printable coupon and find out more about the Garnier Fructis Hydra Recharge hair care line. 

Also, don't forget to sign up for BzzAgent. Try new products for free and have fun doing it. 

Well this is all for now, I am going to finish watching Last Cake Standing... wishing I had a piece of cake. lol.

Ciao for now!

Garnier Olia BzzCampaign




Hello all!

How are y’all doin’? So… spring is here and I know many of you are ready for a change from the winter drab. That is why I am here today! To let you know about one of my latest BzzCampaigns… Garnier Olia Hair Color. As always, I will let you know that I got to try the Garnier Olia for free for being a BzzAgent and spreading the good word about the product.

Okay, to be honest, I can’t use it. I did the strand test and I ended up having an allergic reaction. It was sad too because I got the Darkest Violet and I thought it would look amazing on me. But, my aunt was there to save the day and let me use the dye on her and it turned out amazing!

So here are the facts:

Garnier Olia uses an exclusive 60% oil blend of natural flower oils and no ammonia to help maximize the coloring process. The unique oil blend helps propel the colorant deep into your lovely lox to keep your hair moist and your color rich and long lasting. It also has excellent grey coverage. It  is also available in 24 amazing shades to cover everyone.

Needless to say, even though I can’t use this product, I highly recommend it. I have heard great things about it and I have seen the color up close and think it looks amazing!  So, go to your local Wal-Mart or Target to find the color that works best for you.

Also, go to BzzAgent.com and sign up to become a BzzAgent and get to test products for free and have fun doing it!

Schick Hydro Silk BzzCampaign

Schick Hydro


Hey my People,

It is I, once again… sorry it has been so long. According to my doc I am supposed to restrict my computer time…. And my eyes and brain agree. BUT… I could not pass up the opportunity to  let you guys know about my latest BzzCampaign. The Schick Hydro Silk razor. First, the normal information:
I got to try the Schick Hydro Silk razor for FREE for being a BzzAgent. All I have to do is spread the good (sometimes not so good) word on the product.

Now, on to the good stuff.

Every girl knows that when it comes to having smooth, silky legs, not just any razor will do. I have always been a fan of Schick razors and have used my pretty pink Schick Quatro for years, so I jumped at the chance to try the Schick Hydro Silk. I will admit, I experimented with Venus Razors before and I wasn’t too horribly impressed, and would always run quickly back to my Schick.

What makes the Schick Hydro Silk different? The Hydro Silk has five independently supported  blades that help hug your curves and makes it easier to shave around one’s ever so difficult ankles. Also, there are no big moisture bars like the Venus does. Instead, it has water activated moisturizing serum that is dermatologist tested to work with all skin types, even sensitive skin like mine.

The downside… even with the water activated moisturizing serum, I would suggest that you still use a shave gel. And…… that is about it.

Anyway, I suggest that you give’er a try. And to make it a little bit easier financially, like Schick Hydro Silk on Facebook to get a $4 off coupon at this link:

That is it for now, dear friends. My eyes are telling me that it is time to stop starting at this screen.

Ciao!

Neutrogena Hand Cream BzzKit

Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream

What's up, my people!

So... you know how I love telling you guys about all the amazing products I get to try for free? Well, BzzAgent sent me this amazing product... Neutrogena Hand Cream. As always, I must tell you that I am getting to try this product for free in exchange for me spreading the word.

Okay, I am very skeptical when it comes to lotions. As everyone knows, you never know what you are going to get when you try a new lotion... Will it be too liquidy? Will it provide long lasting moisture? Will it stink to high heaven? You never really know. I was the same way before trying this lotion. I have horribly dry skin and even the best lotion I've used still didn't provide long lasting moisture and my dry, rough, scaley skin never really changed. Enter Neutrogena Hand Cream.

I was amazed by this product from the start. First, I did a scent test. As I am sure you all remember, I am allergic to most smells. I'd read that the smell of the original was strong and quite unpleasant. Well, I am here to tell you, the reviews are wrong. Granted, I will say that if you are accustom to the smell of the "original" original, then you may not like the "new" original. It does have a slight perfume-y scent, but it fades quite quickly. And, the Fragrance Free actually had NO smell to it, which is crazy because 99% of unscented things still stink.

Next, I did the feel test. It is not really a lotion, it seems more like an ointment. Still, it feels silky and smooth. It takes a minute or so for it to completely absorb, but it is not excessive.  A little bit goes a long way... remember that. Don't go out and buy it and think that you need to use the same amount you would use of any other typical lotion. A 2 oz. bottle should last you for about 200 uses. 

Finally, the results.... My hands and elbows feel AMAZING!!!! I live in North Dakota where the cold air kills your skin. My hands typically look a good 5-10 years older than they actually are. Also, I have a serious issue with dry, scaley, and painful skin on one of my elbows, and that dry skin has completely healed in just a couple days. CRAZY! My elbow had been painfully dry for years with no real relief... but the Neutrogena Hand Cream actually HEALED it. Just one dab repairs dryness, chapping, splitting nails, dry cuticles, scaliness, and roughness. How does it repair all these issues? It is the FIRST hand cream to heal with concentrated glycerin. 

Needless to say that I love this product. I think that above all of the products I have tried, I would suggest this one the most. No one wants dry, nasty skin. So, go to the store and buy some Neutrogena Hand Cream... like.... NOW!

:)

Stella Artios Bzz Campaign

Stella Artois

Hello and Happy New Years, my dear friends.

Sorry it has been so long since I have been on here. Still sick... go figure.  Anyway, I was going to get this blog posted a few weeks ago but, better late than never.

So this Bzz Campaign is for Stella Artios. As I always, I want to remind everyone that I got this fabulous Stella Artios Chalice for free in exchange for spreading the good word about Stella Artios and the 9-Step Belgian Pouring Ritual.

A lot of people don't know and/or don't believe that the right glass and the right pour make all the difference in a drink. The chalice and the pouring ritual really do make a big difference when drinking Stella Artios. I tried the Stella from the bottle and it was alright... kinda Heineken like. It had a bit of a skunky after taste and fell flat quickly from the bottle.

However, from the Chalice there was a slight sweetness that was missed when I had it from the bottle. The bitterness was light and hardly noticeable.  It also had a great hoppiness to it.

All in all, Stella Artios is a fantastically delightful drink. Take a gander at the 9-Step Pouring ritual below and then go to town.

Also don't forget to go to BzzAgent.com and sign up.

Have a good day!
