About the Author - Olivia Hardin realized early on how strange she was to have complete movie-like character dreams as a child. Eventually she began putting those vivid dreams to paper and was rarely without her spiral notebooks full of those mental ramblings. Her forgotten vision of becoming an author was realized when she connected with a group of amazingly talented and fabulous writers who gave her lots of direction and encouragement. With a little extra push from family and friends, she hunkered down to get lost in the words. She's also an insatiable crafter who only completes about 1 out of 5 projects, a jogger who hates to run, and is sometimes accused of being artistic, though she's generally too much of a perfectionist to appreciate her own work. A native Texas girl, Olivia lives in the beautiful Lone Star state with her husband and their puppy Bonnie. Connect with her Online - Blog * Goodreads * Twitter* Facebook

Rescue Bands Review

Rescue Bands are fashionable, but are also a great accessory for the adventurer.  A Rescue Bands make fun accessories that that cute and stylish, but it's made with 550lb parachute cord.  So what does this mean?  This means that the Rescue Band could in fact be unraveled and then used in an emergency situation. The best part about the Rescue Bands are that they are really cute.  They actually remind me of friendship bracelets, but are much thicker.  The price of the Rescue Band products range from $8.99 to $39.99.  

I received 2 Rescue Band bracelets to try out.  The first thing I thought was that they are really fun.  I received one of the Get Buttoned Rescue Bands (as pictured) above.  This bracelet retails for $16.00.  I really love the button on this one with the leaves.  The best part about these are that they come in a variety of sizes.  I personally have a small wrist and have a hard time finding bracelets that don't fall off my wrist.  I also received a Rescue Band from the Beaded Series in Solar Orange.  This bracelet is also really cute.  I like that it has a little slide that makes it easy to adjust.  The little heart bead that is on it is really cute too.  This bracelet also comes in a variety of size options and color options too.  Rescue Bands come in so many style options that it is really easy to find one that you like!  They even make custom items if there is something that you would like, but don't see it offered.  They also sell paracord by the foot too.

Rescue Bands are also available in keychains, necklaces, pet collars and luggage tags too.  They offer a large variety of great products.  What is your favorite that they offer?

Mineral Hygienics Review and Discount Code

Mineral Hygienics has a great line of mineral makeup that is completely natural.  I was really interested in trying it out because I prefer natural products.  I have sensitive skin and find that many products can irritate my skin.  Mineral Hygienics was created because they wanted to start makeup company that offered skin friendly products.  I was also impressed when I found out that Mineral Hygienics was created to help create acne.  I think this is awesome.  I personally have a hard problem with many makeup brands because it causes breakouts.  Mineral Hygienics is unique because it's good for your skin.  It also is made with a minimal amount of ingredients too.

Mineral Hygienics offers a nice selection of products.  I personally tried out the foundation, finishing powder, kabuki brush and bronzer.  I love that Mineral Hygienics offers a nice selection of color choices for the foundation.  I know sometimes it can be difficult to pick out a perfect color, but with Mineral Hygienics it is easy.  I am pretty pale and I matched my skin somewhere between the fairly light and light shades.  I personally am so glad I picked these 2.  I will say that the best part about this is that you can blend 2 shades also to make a perfect match for your skin.  That is exactly what I did.  The foundation goes on smooth and it feels light.  It doesn't irritate my skin and best of all it gives you great coverage.  I applied this with the kabuki brush and it was so easy.  You simply shake a little foundation in the lid, dip the brush, tap it and use the kabuki to apply it.  I also used the warm kiss bronzer.  The bronzer is excellent because you can add a little sun kissed glow to your face.  I personally used the bronzer like a blush and loved the way it looked.  I finished my look by applying some of the finishing powder with the kabuki.  This is a great product that I am going to continue to use!  

I also love that Mineral Hygienics offers some really great full starter sets and mini sets too.  This is a great way to get a variety of items to try out.  

Mineral Hygienics has also offered my readers a savings of 10% on their orders.  You can use the coupon "mommieoftwo" at the checkout to take advantage of this.  The coupon code will be valid until September 18th.

Colby's Kettle Corn Review and Discount Code!

We love eating popcorn, but it really can be a challenge to find a healthy popcorn that tastes great.  There are many out there that taste great, but they are loaded with fat and calories.  That's not something I can eat on a daily basis.  I found out about Colby's Kettle Corn and couldn't wait to try it.  Colby's Kettle Corn is available in 4 flavors.  They offer Cinnamon Sugar Sensation, Salty Sweet Addiction, Chili Cheese Obsession and White Cheddar Passion.  We sampled 3 of the flavors - Cinnamon Sugar Sensation, White Cheddar Passion and Salty Sweet Addiction.

I first let my 7 year old sample the popcorn.  He is what I call a popcorn addict.  If he likes it then I know it's good.  He loved all of the flavors.  His favorite was the Cinnamon Sugar Sensation.  I went ahead and tasted all of them and liked them all too.  My favorite was also the Cinnamon Sugar Sensation.  There are a number of reasons why i like this one.  It has a really great flavor.  It's not overly sweet and it has no salt added to it.  So of course I had to see how bad it was for me.  I was shocked to see that in a 1 1/2 cup serving it was only 52 calories.  This is really low for a snack.  It also contains only 3 grams of fat and 3 sugars.  This is definitely a snack that I feel great about eating and giving to my family.  The Salty Sweet Addiction is also excellent.  It is very good kettle corn.  It has a great balance of flavor from the sweet and salty.  The White Cheddar Passion is also really good.  My husband liked this one the best.  It has a really good cheese flavor.  This one is a little higher in fat, but it still only has 8 grams.  What flavor sounds the best to you?

I was really pleased when I looked at the ingredient list on all of the varieties of Colby's Kettle Corn.  The list contains words I can actually pronounce!  It can be difficult to find products that are made with quality ingredients like this.  The Cinnamon Sugar Sensation contains only 4 basic ingredients.  These include - Popcorn, corn oil, sugar and cinnamon.  Colby's Kettle Corn is gluten free, a good source of fiber, vegetarian and contains no preservatives.  You can purchase your own directly from their website too!  They also have a promotion running that will give you 30% of your order if you are a new Colby's Kettle Corn customer.  You can also connect with Colby's Kettle Corn on Facebook to learn about special promotions.

For just a limited time Colby's is offering 50% off of your order by using the promo code FrugalMommie at the checkout!
