This is such a pigmented product, and a light tap on the brush goes a long way!

This set is just great for people who are just starting out and want to try this prouduct for the first. Just in time for the holidays so if you are looking for a new product to try put this in you Chistmas list . But hurry this is limited edition so get this set while you still can.

BURT'S BEES REVIEW

I want to start off by saying I am a BzzAgent. I am given the opportunity to sample/try out products for free . In return, I agree to review and share with people my experience and information about the product I'm trying. I spread the "BZZ" aka word of mouth to let people know about the product and my experience with it weather it is good or bad.
 
 
Burt’s Bees was inspired by a remarkable botanical called clary sage and incorporated it into this new line. Clary sage is a lone plant which fights for its life against the elements and not only survives, but thrives in its harsh environment because of its fierce will and exceptional ability to trap and retain moisture. Clary sage is found deep in the windswept hills of the Mediterranean; it promises to quench parched skin, leaving it totally revitalized and healthy looking.
 
 

Intense Hydration Cream Cleanser with Clary Sage – Infused with clary sage, goes on soft on dry skin and hard on dirt and oil, with a mix of clarifying and nourishing botanical. Key Ingredients: Clary sage helps maintain moisture; pro biotic technology to nourish skin; bitter orange peel extract to enhance water retention and cupuacu butter, which provides luxurious texture.

Benefits: Removes dirt, oil and makeup; intensely hydrates skin, rinsing easily without leaving any residue.

I was pleasantly surprised - it leaves your skin feeling clean and moisturized, but not greasy/oily. I have normal to dry skin that can be sensitive at times.The first thing I noticed was that the fragrance is pretty strong, but it smells really good at the same time. You can really smell the citrus in this product. So if you don't like the smell of oranges then you will not like this product what so ever. I love how it felt like I had just applied lotion even though I only washed my face.  I'd definitely consider adding this to my routine.


 
 Intense Hydration Treatment Mask with Clary Sage  – Instantly quenches parched skin. Enhanced with pro biotic technology and formulated with moisturizing mafura butter (rich in essential fatty acids) and tacuma butter (emollient and antioxidant-rich), it leaves skin feeling soft and totally revitalized. Key Ingredients: Clary sage helps maintain moisture; pro biotic technology to nourish skin.
 
Benefits: Provides immediate intense hydration for dry skin, non-greasy; easy-to-apply.
 
 
 

Intense Hydration Night Cream with Clary Sage  – Clinically proven to deliver intense hydration while you sleep for skin that wakes up feeling soft and supple. Enhanced with pro biotic technology, this formula also helps increase skin’s ability to retain moisture and reduce fine lines and wrinkles, naturally. Key Ingredients: Clary sage, bitter orange peel extract, mafura, tucuma and kokum butter (nourishing and restorative).

Benefits: Helps nourish and revitalize skin while you sleep; intensely hydrates dry skin; reduces lines and wrinkles; absorbs quickly and is non-greasy.


Intense Hydration Day Lotion with Clary Sage – Deeply hydrates dry skin, so each day starts with soft, smooth skin that feels great! A non-comedogenic day lotion also reduces lines and wrinkles, for a youthful, healthy glow. Key Ingredients: Clary sage to help retain moisture; pro biotic technology to nourish skin; bitter orange peel extract (known to enhance water retention); mafura butter (rich in essential fatty acids) and tacuma butter (emollient and antioxidant-rich) Benefits: Intensely hydrates dry skin; reduces lines and wrinkles; helps skin feel soft, smooth and look healthier; absorbs quickly, non-greasy and non-comedogenic.
 


PRO'S OVER ALL
I notice I've had an improvement in hydration of the skin, especially since its fall and my skin always dries out during this season. I'm very impressed the way my skin feels so far.

Both the day and night cream are very nice some people might not like because it is a heavy cream but I like wearing heavy cream around the fall and winter season it makes my skin feel so hydrating. It not like it feels heavy at all. i love the way my skin absorbs the product and makes my skin really soft .
 

CON'S
I would have to say is the citrus fragrance in the face wash. It is sometimes bothersome at times no matter how little I use I just can get over the smell of the orange peels. It is too much of a kick to me.

OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS PRO LIP SET








 Stalker

 Stalker is a true blue based red
 Grandma 
Grandma is a classic coral
Melange
Melange terracotta neutral

Vintage

Vintage is a deep burgundy



Pretty Boy


Pretty Boy is a super-rich fuchsia


OCC LIP BRUSH


I was so excited to get these. They are very bold, very pigmented. They have great lasting power. You definitely only need the most tiny tiny little bit to cover your entire lip. They dry to a matte finish also they do end up staining your lips even with makeup remover. It does not feel too sticky at all. However if you apply too much it will feel very gooey, and bleed quite a bit. Just use this product in moderation, and not only will it last you forever, but you'll love it on. Just know if you're not into full coverage matte lip color, it's probably not worth the hassle of having to mix it with other products. I think this is a great kit for people who want to start off use this product more bang for there buck. a value of 49.99 for five lip tars is not bad at all and the great thing about this set these lip tars are full size which is amazing. 


This kit is only be sold at Sephora online here is the link below:

GREEN MOUNTAIN COFFEE REVIEW




As a BzzAgent, I received free samples to try of Green Mountain Coffee in exchange for my review.
First of all, I have to admit I was a bit hesitant about trying a different coffee. I normally drink Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks coffee yum,  I’ve tried a different coffee types of coffee but sometimes it seems to be bitter and I couldn't drink it.I was pleasantly surprised Green Mountain wasn't bitter at all. In fact, it was very comparable to my Dunkin donuts/ Starbucks. The price was also pretty much the same. 

I can never start a work day without my coffee. By the time it hit 12:00 I already feel run down tried an just feel like I am dine for the day. 

Also whats so great about  Green Mountain it is Fair Trade Certified. Fair Trade helps farmers get a fair price for their beans, improves working conditions, assists in protecting the environment, and supports community developments such as new schools, roads, health clinics and safer drinking water. Which I am all about giving back and helping other. 






As you can see I was sent

1. Wild Mountain Blueberry
2. Sumatran Reserve
3. Vermont Country Blend
4. Colombian Fair Trade Select

and some coupons to give out

If you love eating blueberry muffin you might like to try Wild Mountain Blueberry. As soon as you start to brew this one it will fill the whole house with the aroma of blueberry muffin baking in the oven. As for taste wise the blueberry flavor does not over power the taste of coffee. I think it really compliment each other.

The Sumatran Blend was a very bold taste. It was too dark and rich for my liking not my kind of coffee too much of a nutty taste to it 

Vermont Country Blend and Colombian Fair Trade Select seems very similar in  the level of roast but the flavor was slightly different. 



Overall I would have to say that Wild Mountain Blueberry is my favorite hands down. Pairing with a nice warm muffin on the side doesn't have to be a blueberry. lol


Pro's
1. Delicious, flavor coffee for just about anyone one. Just have to find the right flavor that suits you
2. Made easy and quickly there is no hassle or mess.
3.Less expensive then a cup from a local coffee shop.
4. Also Fair Trade help local farmers get a fair price for there beans which will help improve working condition and protect the environment and support community.

Con's
1. The only con I was able to get is when I had my friends try it they wanted for themselves lol. I was like look here is a coupon get your own.

This product can be found at

Walmart
Bed bath and Beyond
Target
GreenMountainCoffee.com
Keurig.com

are just a few places where they are sold

TOO FACED THE RETURN OF SEXY


Too Faced was right in the money when the came up with this palette. With fall up in full swing and the holidays coming what girl wouldn't want this palette in there collection. I can tell you this it a lot of shimmer and glitter so if you are not that type of girl then this palette is not for you. This palette is for someone who wants to shine like a start are wants to grab everyone attention when they walk by ..... LOOK AT ME I AM A STAR LOL..

This pretty palette holds 15 generous pans of color-coordinated neutrals, passionate purples, and sexy greys. Also included; a full size Perfect Eyes Eyeliner pencil in Perfect Black

The eye shadows can all be used wet or dry, and will give a little bit more of a sheer, candle-lit look once you start blending them when dry, but still look pretty stellar. What makes them come alive is when you amp up the color with a mixing medium or water, so the options are pretty much endless when you start combining the wet/dry finishes and shades together.





Exterior: Too Faced ‘The Return of Sexy’ Eyeshadow Palette




Interior: Too Faced ‘The Return of Sexy’ Eyeshadow Palette




 
 

The Ingénue

  • Ingénue — brown gold glitter
  • Innocent — dark copper
  • New in Town — golden shimmer
  • Casting Couch — dark chocolate
  • Naïve — iridescent cream
 


 
 

The Icon

  • Icon — wine plum shimmer
  • Divorcée — cool grey pearl
  • Hopeless Romantic — plum satin shimmer
  • Primadonna — amethyst purple shimmer
  • Pink Diamond — matte shell pink




 
 

The Bombshell

  • Bombshell — grey silver pearl
  • Hollywood — pewter
  • Maneater — rose tea shimmer
  • Beautymark — onyx silver shimmer
  • 7 Year Itch — off white pearl

CON'S
Like everything there is aways a con this palette is not a fit for everyone. While there’s a mix of finishes in the palette, you’re going to find that it’s predominately glimmers, shimmers, and pearls. If you’re a more subdued matte or satin lover, this may not be for you. Very pretty, nonetheless


This products can be purchase at Sephora store or there web site which the link will be down below

Glade Expressions® Collection Review



I want to start out by saying that I had received this product for free through Buzz agent. This does not change the fact just because I had gotten it for does not mean that I will not give you my honest opinion on the product. I will be truthful and fair. This images that you see was taken off from of google and also some of the basic info like ....founder of the company, Fragrance that is available

Long-Lasting Cotton and Citrus Scent Fills Your Home
The Cotton and Italian Mandarin scent fills your home with the warm, earthy fragrance of revitalizing honeydew and pear, lily of the valley, white jasmine, and sandalwood.

Decor-Friendly Dispenser Is Easy to Use
This white, vase-like holder blends with your decor, fitting in on a coffee table or shelf so a scent refresh is always close at hand--simply peel off the label after purchase. Squeeze the top of the holder to spray a fine mist.

Recyclable Refill Canisters
Refill canisters, which can be installed in three easy steps, are made of recyclable aluminum. The mist uses 100 percent natural propellant.

About Glade and S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc.
S.C. Johnson, maker of the Glade family of products, was founded in 1886. This family-owned company has passed through five generations of Johnsons, growing from a small producer of floor wax to the maker of brands like Pledge, Windex, and Ziploc. SC Johnson was founded in Racine, Wisconsin, and is still headquartered there.

What's in the Box
Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist holder and Cotton and Italian Mandarin refill.

The Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist Spray comes in several scents:

Pineapple & Mangosteen  spray smells tropical like a blend of freshly cut pineapples and hint of tangy mangosteen, creamy coconut and passionflower.

Lavender & Juniper Berry  smells like lavender blended with fresh juniper berry, eucalyptus and rose.

Cotton & Italian Mandarin spray smells like a blend laundry detergent and citrus, honeydew and sandalwood.

Fuji Apple & Cardamom Spice smells like ripe sweet pears and apples blended with cinnamon and clove
 
 

I selected Cotton and Italian Mandarin. If I had to describe its smell in a few  words, I would say that it reminds me of a fresh wash a laundry.  I was a little worried that it would smell too much like perfume, but it does not. It is a very light scent, and it did the job I wanted it to do. The bottle itself is elegant and good looking, the shape is pleasant to hold, and it produced very fine mist. This air freshener is awesome it has a wonderful aroma that makes me want to do the laundry all the time. LOL

This is exactly what I want from a room freshening spray.

These air freshener canisters from Glade Expression are refillable.

I love the fact that you simple buy a refill can of spray and screw it into the bottom of the canister. This is a unique design in an air freshener can. It looks similar to a tulip at the top of the can, you squeeze the top of the can that looks similar to a tulip and it releases a spray of air freshener. You can peel off the label and have a nice looking little canister of air freshener to sit on your counter or table top because it looks nothing like an air freshener can.

 PRO’S

The overall design is very unique I love the fact that it does not look like and other air freshener I have ever seen before. Glade really thought outside of the box.
it very affordable for the consumer

You can find it just about anywhere

 Con’s

Don’t get me wrong I do love the scent but I feel like it does not last as  long like is should

Hard to get (it is not Glade it fault but it took me a while to find it not because they didn’t sell it but it was out of stock. I guess there was some kind of sale or there was a lot of buzz agent in my area. LOL

Where is this product available?
Target
Walgreen
CVS

UNREAL CANDY UNJUNKED




Hey everyone I want to state that  I’m a BzzAgent. I was asked by BzzAgent to try Unreal Candy and give my honest opinion about the product. If you are interested in becoming a Bzzagent just sign up here, and don’t forget it’s free to sign up.

First before I tell you what I thought about Unreal Candy I’m going to tell you what it is. Unreal Candy was the idea of Nicky Bronner, a 14-year-old kid who set out to prove he could unjunk candy. Unreal candy has NO Arificials, NO Corn Syrup, and NO Hydrogenated Oils which is some of the junk in candy that helps it be produced cheaper but makes it unhealthy. As of right now Unreal Candy has 5 different flavors (Chocolate Candy Shell Peanuts, Chocolate Candy Shell, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate Caramel Peanuts Nougat, and Chocolate Covered Nougat).

Now it’s time for me to tell you what I thought of each one. I tried four out of the five flavors:

Unreal 54 (Chocolate Candy Shell Peanuts) – This candy can best be compared to peanut M&Ms. The color is different but I like it, and there is a reason for the unique colors…they are actually colored with cabbage and beets. I thought it was pretty cool that it was colored with food instead of a dye. Finally the taste, the most important part of any candy…I liked this one it wasn’t the same as M&Ms but it was right up there with it.

Unreal 41 (Chocolate Candy Shells) – This candy is best compared to M&Ms. I have the same opinion with the packaging and look of this one as the peanut version. When it comes to taste I actually liked this one more then the peanut one which is odd because normally I would always pick peanut M&MS over regular ones. Unreal 41 is really good.

Unreal 77 (Chocolate Peanut Butter) – This candy is best compared to Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.  I still noticed they had the logo on the bottom of the cups which I thought was a nice touch. I thing I like this one more then the rest of them. I guess because I'm such a big fan of the reese butter cup.  
Unreal 8 (Chocolate Caramel Peanuts Nougat) – This candy is best compared to a Snickers. The package was nice as always. I could smell it as soon as I opened it and thought yum this smells just like a snickers. Finally the taste, the taste was awesome it was really close to tasting like a snickers.

There is also a flavor I haven’t got to try yet called Unreal 5 (Chocolate Caramel Nougat) which is compared to a Milky Way bar. Maybe I will try soon. They didn seem to have them at my store.
All 5 of the Unreal Candy has between 150 – 200 calories.

Overall the candy isn’t great in my opinion but it isn’t bad either it’s just kind of average. If you are looking to eat healthier and don’t want to give up sweets then I think this may be the candy for you. Try it for yourself because everyones taste is different and you may have different opinions about it than I did. If you have tried it let me know in the comments what you thought about it.
