Review: Tisserand Nail Cream, Massage Oil & More

Review: Tisserand Nail Cream, Massage Oil & More

I was asked to review Tisserand’s Blemish Stick, but when I opened the box, I was in for a surprise! 6 other products for me to try out!   Tisserand Intensive Hand and Nail Cream First one I was drawn to- the Intensive Hand and Nail cream. I have dry “old lady” looking hands. I am ALWAYS on the lookout for a good but non-greasy hand... »View more

Review: Tisserand Organic Tea Tree Clear Skin Anti-Blemish Stick

Review: Tisserand Organic Tea Tree Clear Skin Anti-Blemish Stick

When offered to review this product, I had to jump. Being involved with makeup and skin for as long as I have, I’m always up for trying something new. Growing up, I never really had to deal with acne (good genes!)… I really only got breakouts at typical times- right before/after my period, and if I forgot to take off makeup (or used something... »View more

Review: Dropps Laundry Detergent

Review: Dropps Laundry Detergent

Anything that cuts down on the time I spend dealing with their dirty clothes is worth a second look. I recently... »View more

Review: Purex Complete 3-in-1 Laundry Sheets

I admit it – I’ve fallen in love with a  laundry product!  The new Purex Complete 3-in-1 Laundry Sheets are the most amazing invention in laundry to come along since the automatic washing machine.  Since I’m a Purex Insider, they sent me a test pack of their new Purex Complete 3-in-1 Laundry sheets before they were available... »View more

Febreze Noticeables Moroccan Bazaar Scented Oil Warmer Review

Febreze Noticeables Moroccan Bazaar Scented Oil Warmer Review

This week I tried out the new Febreze NOTICEables Moroccan Bazaar scented oil warmer for review.  The packaging says this about the scent: “Inspired by the fragrances of fresh-ground ginger and nutmeg that fill the air in the spice markets of Casablanca.”  With a description like that, who wouldn’t want to smell this scented oil air... »View more
