Burt's Bees Skin Solutions for Sensitive Skin Review
I received the Burt's Bees Sensitive skin moisturizer and cleanser 2 days ago compliments of bzzagent and started using it immediately.
I will first give you some background about my skin in order for you to understand my situation a bit better. I have severely sensitive skin. I had previously had to stop using the skincare products I was using and visit a dermatologist because my skin got so irritated from a different product that was labeled "hypoallergenic." So, with the issues I've had with certain products (even ones labeled hypoallergenic) I have to be very careful with what I use on my skin.
I was very happy to see that the Burt's Bees Sensitive skincare products are made with 99% all natural ingredients. I was interested to see how this would be different on my face rather than just a product that was labeled "hypoallergenic." The product contains rice extract, aloe, eyebright and white genepi. The neatest thing I found is that this line of Burt's Bees has cotton extract in it.
I have used the Burt's Bees Senstive daily moisturizing cream and cleanser now about 6 times and had no irritation from it. I will actually say that, for the first time in awhile, my skin feels smoother and softer. The products provide my skin with the perfect amount of moisture without making it all oily. I think that this is a product I'm going to stick with for awhile, since I've had such a hard time finding skincare products that don't irritate my skin or cause them to break out. I would recommend this to anyone who suffers from sensitive skin and really has a hard time finding a product that doesn't irritate them.

Lawry's Chicken Marsala Review
I recently was given the opportunity to try some really neat products from Lawry's compliments of bzzagent.com. I received a box of goodies this week that contained lots of coupons, a taco seasoning, a Southwest Chicken Skillet, an Chicken Marsala packet, Lawry's Seasoned Salt and a cute apron. I have used the Lawry's Seasoned Salt for years. It's great on just about anything. We use it a lot on our meats when we grill them. My daughter loves it on her hard boiled eggs.
Here is a photo of some of the goodies that came in my Lawry's bzzkit.
Tonight I decided to use the Chicken Marsala packet that I received. I was a little bit weary that this would be a bit too salty. I have found that a lot of prepackaged seasoning mixes are overly salted. I was wrong. The flavor was really good. It had a really good flavor without being overdone and overly salty. The best part was the whole family enjoyed it. I also love that it took me very little time to prepare. I have noticed now that my son is in school all day by the time I get him home from school I don't have much time to prepare dinner. I think from the start to finish this took me about 30 minutes. The ingredients are simple too. It consists of the chicken, seasoning packet, mushrooms and some water. I served it with a side of rice. I will be honest and I didn't have boneless chicken in the house, so I opted to use boneless lean pork and it came out very good.
I would recommend this if you want a great homemade meal that doesn't take all day to prepare.
Here are some photos of the Lawry's Chicken Marsala.

Row, Row, Row Your Boat Down a Sodastream!
Having one is my dream!
Every single time I see one of these I drool over it! Seriously, it is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen or heard of. Today's daily bzz from bzzagent it for a Sodastream. Ok so what is a Sodastream? It is a machine that makes soda in your own home. It's convenient, economical, and oh we can't forget fun! I can't say how it tastes because I haven't tried it, but I do love the idea that you can flavor your soda to your personal preference. You can't get that from store bought soda. The flavors sound awesome too. They have a "Black Currant and Pear Sparkling Natural" flavor that sounds really good to me. I like the idea of Sparkling Natural soda too for my kiddos. It's a bit healthier. Oh and for those of you interested in other varieties they have things like regular cola, diet cola, sparkling teas (that sounds amazing), oh and energy drinks. So hopefully I will get to be part of today's daily buzz from bzzagent.com for the Sodastream and get to review this amazing product.
If you are interested in trying to get in on today's daily bzz you must be a bzz agent first and then you can tell them you're interested.
