Smartypants Vitamins: Teen Guy and Teen Girl Complete Vitamin Giveaway

SmartyPants Vitamins: Teen Guy and Teen Girl Complete Giveaway

When I was young I did not like to take vitamins and I did not understand why it was important to take them daily. As an adult, there are many vitamins that still make me wonder and question their purpose but by and large I have a good idea of the things that my body needs.

As a teenager, not only did I not know what my body needed, but I did not give it much consideration. As it turns out I could have eased some growing pains had I just taken an all in one vitamin like the new SmartyPants Teen Complete Vitamins.

Eazee Deshedding Tool for Pets by Foolee Review

Brushing and Spending Time With Maggee and the Eazee Deshedding Tool – Review & Giveaway

If there is one thing on earth Maggee loves more than just about anything is brushing. When we adopted her from our local shelter one of our first priorities was to get her adjusted to the brush.

Each night we diligently brushed her, making sure we did not hurt her, or press to hard. Our goal was to make brushing a pleasurable thing and something she looked forward to, rather then fear. It took about a month or so, but she soon learned that no matter what brush, she loved it. As her guardians this made us happy, we knew that if it was fleas or knots, she would allow us to brush and inspect her.

Since that initial month we have been on a search for the one brush that she loves over the others. Also, since she has super dense fur our brush options can be a little limiting. When I saw the new Eazee Deshedding Brush I knew we had to give it a try, for Maggee. Continue reading

QuickZip: Zip-On Fitted Sheets Review

Making the Bed the Easy Way with QuickZip: Zip-On Sheets and a Giveaway

The one household chore that is as tedious as it is necessary – changing the bedroom sheets. No matter how many times I try, the sheets always get pulled up from the sides, or the sheet ends up a crumbled mess.

I have often thought that there must be an easier way and it turns out I was right. When I saw an email from QuickZip about their Starter Sheet Set, I was curious if these sheets would be an easier solution than the current option.

Live Clean: Fresh Water Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner Review

Live Clean: Fresh Water Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner Review + Giveaway

Being a San Diego resident, if there is one thing that we do not see often it is rain, which can be a downside. The smell after a fresh rain is second to none and leaves the ground and the area around smelling fresh and clean.

One of my favorite scents is rain/fresh water. When the scent is able to be bottled up and put into a shampoo and conditioner, than you have a clear scent winner. Since I am such a “Fresh” fan I was curious if the the Live Clean: Fresh Water Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner would meet the scent expectations i had. I will give you a hint – it did!

Buffalo Range: All Natural Buffalo Treats Review

Buffalo Range: All Natural Buffalo Rawhide Treats Review & Giveaway

As a pet guardian I am a firm believer that as “guardians” it is our job to make our pets have the best life possible. This could be from giving them attention when they want it, giving them the best food available or making sure the treats they have are pure.

As much as we love our pets, we are unable to communicate with them. Due to this we are responsible for making their food decisions for them. When I look for treats, my goal is to give them the most pure products with ingredients I can pronounce.

When I learned about the new Buffalo Range All Natural Buffalo Rawhide Treats I knew that I wanted Meadow to have the opportunity to try them since I had read that they were natural and did not contain preservatives or fillers.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair: Color Guard Shampoo & Conditioner Review

Keep Your Color With Schwarzkopf Color Guard Shampoo and Conditioner – Review and Giveaway

I remember the day it happened. It was a sunny day and not a cloud in the sky. Despite the lack of clouds above, As I do each morning, I went to brush my hair and discovered that the day I had been dreading was finally here – my first grey hair appeared.

As memorable as this moment was, it was not a complete surprise since I had long suspected that I would gray earlier than most of my peers. Since I had always had this suspicion I began to color my hair while I was still a teen.

One problem I have always encountered when I color my hair is that the color tends to fade and lighten much earlier than I would like. Also, since I recently colored my hair, it was the ideal time to give the new Schwarzkopf Gliss Color Guard Shampoo and Conditioner a try.

Summer Salads at Wendys

Summer Salads at Wendy’s & Gift Card Giveaway

We all know the logo – the girl with pigtails with the collared shirt – she is Wendy. Wendy is the ubiquitous mascot to this international fast food restaurant. Since I was a young girl, I not only knew the logo but also knew the exits that they were located on frequently traveled routes. When I was young my father would enjoy stopping here, while I found the food not as tasty as other burger places, plus I wanted my toy in my meal. As I have gotten older and my tastes change, I have come to enjoy Wendy’s in a way I could not appreciate when I was young.

A couple of weeks ago I was watching television and saw advertisements for a new salad with strawberries and mangos. I was curious how this fruity flavor would play against the lettuce and chicken.

I decided to reach out and within a couple weeks I was given the opportunity to sample Wendy’s Summer Salads as well as thier other salads and three seasonal drinks that use Honest Tropical Green Tea as a base.

PupBox: 9 Month Old Box Review

PupBox: 9 Month Old Box Review + Box Giveaway

When I was young we adopted a dog and while I tired puppy raising I was young and did not know what I was doing. I had little guidance, and due to my age, I was practically being raised with my puppy.

As pet guardians, we want to do the best for our pets and give them the best life we can. The downside is that we do not speak puppy and knowing what they need or want at each stage of their lives can be difficult.

As regular readers know, we are Shark Tank fans, and last year I saw a company featured that focuses on that special time in your puppies life. The PupBox Subscription Box is a monthly box tailored to the age and developmental stage your puppy is at.
