Majestical Jewelry Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.




I really love great jewelry that makes a statement.  I think a big and bold piece is a fun way to accessorize.  Majestical Jewelry offers a great selection of jewelry for all different tastes.  They offer fashion jewelry, silver jewelry, gemstone jewelry and much more.  They offer necklaces, earrings, and much more.  They offer something for all budgets.  They offer quality jewelry that is reasonably priced.









I received a set from Majestical Jewelry's fashion collection.  They offer so many great fashion jewelry pieces.  Statement necklaces are the newest rage and they have a bunch of these.  Statement necklaces are a large eye catching piece.  They are a great way to accessorize any outfit.  These come in a variety of fun colors too!

I received their Black Floral Fashion Necklace Set.  This is a necklace and earring combo set.  I love the black because it goes with pretty much anything.  This is a chunky large necklace that truly makes a statement.  I love that the chain the necklace is on is adjustable.  This is perfect for adjusting the length depending on your size, but it works well depending on what type of top you are wearing.  The set comes with a pair of earrings.  These are simple pear shaped black drop earrings.  The earrings are a great finishing touch for a put together look.  They are also comfortable to wear.  That really is important to me.  This set can be worn with dressy outfits, but it also looks great with jeans and a top.  How would you wear this jewelry set?

SeabuckWonders Review

I am always intrigued to try new beauty and skincare products.  SeabuckWonders offers a line of skincare and beauty products that are made with Sea Buckthorn Berries.  They use high quality ingredients to create their products.  They are completely organic, are made with Himalayan Sea Buckthorn Berries, they are Kosher, and contain no GMO's.  The Sea Buckthorn Berries they use are high in Omega 7.  It is said that Sea Buckthorn is great to keep you healthy and feeling young.







I was excited to receive this kit and try it out.  This is a 4 piece set that retails for $73.84 and it can be purchased directly from the SeabuckWonders website.  The kit includes a body lotion, facial cream, facial cleanser, and hydrating serum.  This is a great kit if you want to try a variety of the SeabuckWonders products.  It includes everything I need to keep my skin soft and moisturized.  I use the facial cleanser morning and night to keep my skin clean.  It is an exfoliating cleanser that cleans my skin gently.  You simply apply it to your face and rinse.  The serum is a great way to add a ton of moisture to your skin.  This is recommended for use in morning and night.  I also apply the facial cream to soften my skin.  The facial cream creates almost like a barrier on your skin.  The Sea Buckthorn body lotion is perfect for dry areas on  your body.  I actually apply it all over after the shower or bath.

Jane Iredale Makeup Review

Disclosure - free sample provided. 



I love great makeup products that make my makeup routine easy.  Jane Iredale makeup is exactly that because their products work great.  This line of makeup is different though.  The makeup was designed to be good for your skin.  The makeup was created with the idea that it should look great on.  She did exactly that and I was impressed with the products I tried.




Jane Iredale offers a great selection of makeup.  They offer a variety of different color choices too.  They offer foundation, eye shadow, eye liner, blush, lip products, tools and more.  I received two of Jane Iredale's lipsticks.  I was really impressed by how soft the lipstick left my lips feeling.  It does a great job adding the perfect amount of color to your lips, but moisturizes them at the same time.  The lipstick is really easy to apply and glides on super smooth.  The PureMoist Lipstick is also vegan and cruelty free.  They offer a great selection of colors in the lipstick.  They offer colors that will add just a hint of color and also offer darker colors that will give you a more dramatic look.

Oh how I hate dry skin in the Winter.  I am always applying creams and lotions to help my skin.  I want to introduce you to a wonderful product line from Le Beurre Shop.  Beurre products are rich in shea butter.  They soften the skin and keep it moisturized.  This is a line of quality skincare that is homemade.  The day I received these products my daughter was complaining of her arms and elbows bothering her.  I looked at them and they were super dry.  We applied some of the Beurre shae butter body cream.  It soothed her skin and she was no longer complaining.  I even put a small little jar of it in her backpack for school.







The Beurre Shae Butter Body Cream is a versatile cream that can be used all over the body.  It is great to put on after the bath or shower to keep your skin hydrated.  The body cream comes in a variety of fragrances or is even available in unscented.  I personally loved all of the varieties, but my personal favorite is the vanilla and also the lemongrass.  The Beurre Ultra Rick Shea Butter Face Cream is also an excellent product, but this is designed for your face.  It really leaves my face feeling hydrated and helps with dry and chapped skin.  Le Beurre Shop has even created a lip balm.  This comes in a little pot and is great to help dry lips.  It is easy to apply and goes on smooth.  I really like that it fits perfectly in my pocket or purse.

I also got to try a new product that they are coming out with.  This is geared towards treating eczema.  It is a natural product that it perfect for those itchy dry patches.  It worked great and is something I feel good about using on myself or my kids.

John Boos Cutting Board Review and Giveaway 3/17 CLOSED

Disclosure - free sample provided.



I have a pretty small kitchen, so I am always looking for ways to use my space wisely.  I recently received a very large John Boos Cutting Board and this has really helped me use my kitchen space.  The cutting board covers most of the area on one side of my sink.  This is really nice because I can prepare, chop, or do whatever I need in that area.  It is so much more convenient than pulling out a small cutting board every single time I need to cut something.




John Boos is a company that has been around since 1887.  They are a provider of gourmet products and food service equipment.  They offer both quality wood and metal products.  They offer a selection of items that includes butcher blocks, cutting boards, work tables, and more.  Their products are truly impressive and you really can tell that they are made with quality in mind.





I was given an opportunity to choose a cutting board.  I chose the 2 1/4 inch thick reversible cherry wood cutting board.  I opted for a very large size of 24 x 18.  The board is a great working space.  It is nice and thick too.  The board itself is not just useful, but it is beautiful.  The wood it is made of is really stunning.  Each board needs to be oiled prior to use.  They also suggest oiling it every so often to protect the board.  It is very simple to oil the board too.  The oil used seals the board, but also makes it shiny.  I use my board to prepare and chop all the time.  The board is something I know I will get so much use out of.

You can learn more about all of the beautiful cutting boards that John Boos offers by visiting their website.  You can also purchase these amazing kitchen products directly from their website.  You can also connect with John Boos on Facebook and Twitter.

Papa Murphy's Pan Pizza Review #PapaMurphysMNO

Disclosure - free sample provided.



I was recently given the opportunity to try Papa Murphy's Pan Pizza.  I was very excited because we just had a location open up near us.  Papa Murphy's offers Take 'N' Bake Pizza.  What does this mean?  Everything is done for you except the baking.  Why do I like this?  My kids always want pizza.  When I order from delivery, I never know how long it will take for them to deliver it to my house.  Papa Murphy's is a nice option for busy moms.  You can pick up the pizza earlier in the day.  I just pop it in the fridge until I am ready to cook it.  You simply pull the pizza out of the fridge, and bake it.  I think it tastes just as good as delivery pizza too.  It's much fresher than frozen pizza.  It was a big hit in our house.  I really like that they also offer great sides.  I was impressed with how fresh the salads were.  I had to pick one up to try!  They also offer desserts that you can Take 'N Bake too!  I was also very pleased with the price of the items.  Papa Murphy's offers a quality product, but at a very reasonable price.






I ordered a Papa Murphy's Pan Pizza.  I chose the pepperoni as the topping.  I was impressed with the generous amount of cheese and pepperoni on the pizza.  The sauce was great too.  It had the perfect amount.  I personally do not like too much sauce or too little.  The pizza was easy to cook too.  The crust fluffed up and had a really fresh flavor.  I also really liked that the crust wasn't overly greasy.  Papa Murphy's offers a variety of toppings too that you can choose from to top your pan pizza.  I can't wait to try some other great flavor combinations.  What would you choose?

Denny Mike's Sauces and Seasonings Review

Disclosure - free sample provided.

I love to bbq year round.  It is one of my favorite types of food to eat and prepare.  What kind of sauces and seasonings do you use to make preparing bbq food better and easier?  I want to introduce you to Denny Mike's.  They offer a line of great bbq products.  They offer sauces and seasonings to flavor your meats.  They even offer gift sets that are perfect for those that you know that love bbq.  These are nothing like your sauces and seasonings that you typically buy in a regular grocery store.  These were created by bbq champions.  You really can tell the difference in the taste and quality.





Sauces
I love bbq sauce, but I typically don't put it on my food while cooking.  I typically use it for dipping after meat has cooked.  This works well if you have people in your house that don't eat bbq sauce.  Denny Mike's bbq sauces are perfect for this.  They are a great way to finish your bbq'd meats.  I love Denny Mike's Hot 'N Nasty BBQ Sauce.  This sauce has a wonderful amount of heat.  It's great on chicken, beef, pork, and more.  This sauce gets it's heat from habaneros.  I also really like Denny Mike's Sweet 'N Spicy BBQ Sauce.  This is their signature sauce and it has a really nice balance of sweetness and heat.  I like that it's not too sweet though.  





Seasonings
Denny Mike's also offers seasoning rubs that make flavoring your bbq easy.  You simply shake on the amount that you want on your meat and rub it in.  Their Pixie Dust Seasoning is a universal seasoning blend.  It can be used on a variety of meats, veggies and more.  I also really liked their Chick Magnet Seasoning.  This was a perfect way to season my chicken before I put it on the grill.  It gave my chicken a wonderful flavor, but didn't make it too salty.  

You can learn more about Denny Mike's Sauces and Seasoning by visiting their website.  You can also order directly from their website.  You can also connect with them on Facebook.
