Bite Size Review of L'Oreal Extraordinary Oils

I recieved the product line free from Crowdtap for a review/honest opinion. All opinions are my own. 

This is one of my new favorite shampoo/conditioner lines! This product will leave your hair feeling soft and refreshed. 

Recently when my sister visited, I let her sample my shampoo and conditioner and she liked it so much she bought a set for herself! 

This product line truly gives you good hair for an affordable price and I would (and did) recommend it.

Bite Sized Review of Maybelline Better Skin Foundation

I recieved this product for free from Influenster, but all opinions are my own. 

This product is truly a new innovation in powder foundation/concealer. I was impressed with this line and what it did for my skin. It was able to cover all of the dry patches on my skin and give my face almost an airbrushed look! Combined with my highlighter, my makeup is ready for a date with my husband! He thought my makeup looked very nice with the help of Better Skin. I would recommended this product especially to anyone with fair skin- I had not been able to find a foundation shade to match my skin in a while but this product's color was perfect for my skin! 

Meet the Product: Silk Yogurt

I recieved this free for an honest opinion/review from Crowdtap but all opinions are my own! Stay tuned to my Twitter where I will be posting reviews/opinions and uses for this product! Meet Silk yogurt- a dairy free yogurt alternative. I have been trying to slowly have a more vegan based diet and this will surely help. 

This yogurt is perfect for including in recipes like smoothies. Below is my special smoothie recipe treat- perfect for leaving for a working husband! You can find this delicious treat at grocery stores nationwide. I found mine at Kroger!

Meet the Product: Silk Nutchello

I recieved this product free to share my opinions from Crowdtap. All opinions are my own- stay tuned to my Twitter for my opinions/reviews on it and some uses for the product! Meet your new midday treat! The new Silk Nutchello comes in three different flavors- among these is the toasted coconut cashew flavor! 

The product has only 80 calories and is a great treat at work or at home. You can find this new Silk product at grocery stores nationwide- I found mine at Kroger! 

Bite Size Review of Splenda Zero

I recieved this sample free to review from Crowdtap. All opinions are my own.

This product is called Splenda Zero- it is a zero calorie sweetener perfect for on the go use. Unlike the Splenda packets, this product is liquid.

I had a positive experience with this product. It is like using the packets but I feel it is more convenient for on the go use and takes up less space! 

Here is a photo of the product and the delicious tea I made to go with lunch. It is apple cinnamon tea with a splash of cold coffee creamer and sweetened with Splenda Zero. 

This is a photo showing Splenda Zero's convenience for on the go in my travel mug. It is also a good size to be carried in my purse.

All in all I liked this product and would use it again. 

Bite Size Review of Always Radiant with FlexFoam

I have had quite a fun time telling my Twitter followers about this new product I was able to sample (disclaimer- free to honestly review) from Crowdtap! 

This pad "absorbs 10x it's weight" and gives you the "freedom to wear what you want to." I think the most fun part of the product is the design though! These pads have such cute feminine designs ( see below, the pad in my bag) and make a not so fun time of the month a little brighter. All in all, I had a positive experience with the product and Always brand in general. I would use this product again and would recommend.

Meet the Product: Garnier Sleek and Shine Products

I was selected to review these sample size Garnier products for free from Crowdtap and I'm very happy to present to you the Garnier Sleek & Shine line as well as the sheer set spray! 

The Sleek & Shine will work wonders on your hair and smooth frizziness- making healthier and sleeker hair. The sheer set hair spray helps hold even the craziest styles! It helps hair stay in place up to 48hr even! 

I am excited to try these products. Stay tuned to my Twitter to see what I think of these products and photos within this week! 

What are your favorite hair sprays or your favorite shampoo/conditioner sets? 

Bite Size Review of Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration

When Crowdtap selected me to review this product for free (don't worry- all opinions are still my own!) I was very excited! This brand has been one my family has already used for many years but I hadn't tried this particular product yet! 

I was very satisfied with my experience with the product! It still has all of the things you may already love about the Hawaiian Tropic brand such as the amazing tropical scents, but what really sets this one apart is the lightweight formula. This product feels as if nothing is there! It goes on lightly and is non-greasy. It felt just like applying a light lotion. I also loved that the product is 80 minutes water resistant! Perfect to get in a summer swim before it wears off! 

This product provides 30 SPF protection and is extremely easy to apply and to use. This product is also dermatologist tested for anyone who may look for expert tested/approved products.

All in all, I had a positive experience with this product and I would use and purchase it again. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a non-greasy sunscreen that still smells great! 

Meet the Product post: Garnier Grow Strong

Thanks to Crowdtap I'm trying Garnier's new Grow Strong products! 

These products can help to strengthen hair and help it to grow stronger and even longer. 

I have used other Garnier products before and really liked them- especially the Whole Blends line. 

I have never tried the Grow Strong product line but am very excited to. Look for tweets and opinions about the product on my Twitter channel within the next couple days as I review the products! :) 

Meet the Product: Bloom VoxBox

Here are some of my favorite products from the box :) (I received free to review from Influenster)

My top favorite product from this box was the Kylie Jenner collection polish. I received the blue glitter polish in this box and later purchased the other polishes from Walgreens! I love the shimmer this polish adds to my nails. The dark blue looks pretty over these matte colors. 

This is my Nuxe dry oil sample! This product, sold at Ulta Beauty can be used on the face, body, and/or hair! 

This is my Sunbelt Bakery granola bar which is made with no preservatives and has a bakery fresh taste! I received the chocolate chip flavor in my box!

Here is a complete photo of the box including the rest of the products- Not Your Mother's Plump For Joy, Cutex nail polish removal pads, Secret Outlast Xtend, and a card explaining the different products and their retail values! 

Thank you Influenster for a wonderful box of spring fun! 

Generation Good Healthy Home Party Preparation

*I received these products free to review and to share from Generation Good/ Seventh Generation!*

Thanks to Generation Good I will be hosting a free healthy baby home party to show guests the importance of healthy products. 

Here are a few of the products I will be showing and explaining to others! 

I spent my Mother's Day morning making up these goodie bags that will be given to the guests filled with healthy goodies! 

Here is a completed bag and everything inside of it for the guests! Look at the fun products! 

Here is the mess I created BEFORE I got them sorted out- oops! :) 

Finally, here are the little bags fully completed! 

I can't wait to tell my friends about the natural and healthy products they can pick up today for their families- and sample with these goodie bags! 

It makes me feel so important to be able to tell my friends and family about the importance of coming clean about what's really in products! 

I can't wait for the party to share with them! There will be games to play and more! 

Stay tuned for fun pics of guests with their goodies and pics of some of the fun activities :) 

Bite Size Review of Seventh Generation

Behold the lovely beauty of a natural solution to your families inevitable huge stack of laundry- 

This, my friends, is Seventh Generation's laundry detergent that I had the privilege of trying for FREE through their social group! (But opinions are my own) :)

This product has a lavender scent and fights stains just as a normal detergent but with less chemicals! This product comes in a couple other varieties such as clean and clear for sensitive skin. 

I was impressed with this product. I love that it helps me to do laundry naturally and not use as many chemicals to wash. The scent was very refreshing. I would buy this product again.

I would recommend this to anyone wanting to try natural detergent. 

Bite Size Review of Sunbelt Bakery Granola Bars

I am enjoying the Sunbelt granola bar I received free to review from Influenster today! This granola bar is made without preservatives and has a bakery fresh taste. I sampled the chocolate chip flavor and I liked it. It was a nice sweet treat but not overpoweringly sweet! The bars have 3g of protein too for an energy boost if used as a snack for work.

I really liked the granola bar and I would recommend them! They can be found at your local grocery store! 

Bite Size Review of Not Your Mother's Hair Lifter

I am really enjoying the product that I received free to review from Influenster! This product is made for people like me with thin and fine hair with a lack of volume. This product is sprayed into the hands and applied to the hair from ends to roots. If the product is applied and hair is scrunched you will obtain more voluminous waves.

I would recommend this for anyone looking for more volume and I would use it again. 

Bite Size Review of Johnsonville Sausage Grillers Product

I really enjoyed this product and my husband had a lot of fun grilling them. I had never tried grillable sausage before and Johnsonville impressed me. I loved the flavor of this product. It was a huge hit at our family dinner. My husband really liked the product. It has a nice taste and the product is one of the best tasting frozen meats I have tried. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for quality frozen meats or dinners. I would purchase these again! 

I received these free to review from Crowdtap. 

Bite Size Review of Arm & Hammer Products

I recieved these free to test and review from Crowdtap. 

I really like the toothpaste and like the flavor of the product.  I like that the product has fluoride cavity protection and enamel strengthening. Enamel strengthening is an important factor to me because drinking lots of tea over time has damaged my enamel. I feel as though this toothpaste is trustworthy and I trust that it will help to prevent cavities and help strengthen my teeth. I would buy this product again. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an enamel strengthening toothpaste.

My favorite part of the brush was that it gives such a deep clean feeling to teeth. This brush gently brushes away impurities from teeth with soft bristles that are easy on sensitive gums. It has bristles with specialty freshening cup for maximum freshness. I like that the batteries and the brushes are replaceable so the product is very long lasting as long as it is taken care of. All in all, my experience was positive and I would recommend this product to a friend. 

Bite Size Review of Papermate InkJoy

These pens are very high quality and I have enjoyed using mine so far. The pens do not smear and are very professional. I used mine to sign documents. The ink looks nice on the paper and is easy to read. The colors the pens come in are great. The pen is easy to write with and the grip is comfortable. I would buy these again if I needed to buy pens.

Bite Size Review of Ink Joy

I was recently given the opportunity to try Ink Joy pens for free via Crowdtap. I must say that I am impressed with the product!

These pens are very high quality and I have enjoyed using mine so far. The pens do not smear and are very professional. I used mine to sign documents. The ink looks nice on the paper and is easy to read. The colors the pens come in are great. The pen is easy to write with and the grip is comfortable. I would buy these again if I needed to buy pens.

Bite Size Review of Rubbermaid FreshWorks

Updated:8/26/16 

I have been using this for several months now on different kinds of produce and will say that it still does work :)

Meet Rubbermaid Fresh Works- the product that could potentially save your produce for longer!

This product, which I recieved free to review from Crowdtap, can help produce to stay fresh and uses venting technology to help produce keep longer. As you can see below, there is a bit of a difference in using the produce saver and not. This product seems to work great for a lot of people on blackberries and strawberry too though I have yet to try it with those. Mine is using lettuce. I would recommend this product to anyone who would like to save money on produce and waste less!

Bite Size Review of Garnier Clearly Brighter Moisturizer

When I first applied to sample this moisturizer on Crowdtap I was hoping it would help with my dry skin patches on my face I get during cold weather. This product did that and so much more! It left my entire face feeling moisturized and has a refreshing scent. I would recommend someone to try this product if they are looking for healthy and moisturized skin. I also like that this product contains sunscreen which can help protect skin from harmful sun rays. All in all this was a great product and I would use it again.

You can notice that the product made my skin look healthier in my before and after photo below.

Bite Size Review of L'Oreal Extraordinary Oil Products

Looking for a product to help with moisturizing your hair? Look no further, here is the Extraordinary Oil line.

The shampoo and conditioner have an amazing smell and they keep my hair feeling soft and silky. My hair feels healthier. 

The oil treatment is perfect to use on my ends which are prone to tangling. I like to apply the oil to my ends because the oil makes my hair softer and easier to brush.

I would recommend the product line to anyone looking to add moisture to their #ExtraordinaryHair and to obtain shinier and healthier hair. Below is the set of products I recieved free to review from Influenster- all opinions are my own.

Bite Size Review of Amopé

I was recently given the opportunity to try Amopé Pedi Perfect foot file from Crowdtap for free.

I must say that this product has impressed both my husband and I. This product gives a professional quality pedicure and helps get rid of dry skin within minutes. 

The file gently gets rid of dry skin with no pain or doscomfort. The file is rechargeable so it can be used over and over again.

I would recommend this product to anyone looking for softer and healthier looking feet. This product truly gives results and is a great value.

Bite Size Review of Garnier Olia

I was recently given the opportunity to host a party for free for Garnier Olia.

I would definitely recommend the product. It is made with natural oils and does a great job of covering greys.

I distributed Garnier shampoo and conditioner samples to guests and offered them a box of Garnier Olia hair dye to try too. 

One guest dyed her hair with the red shade and was happy with the change. 

Each guest was happy to learn more about Olia and to view and sample the products.

Thank you for the opportunity to host, Crowdtap & Garnier. I would recommend Garnier products, as they are of great quality.

You can find Garnier Olia at a store near you today!

Bite Size Review of Seventh Generation Free & Clear

This is a product I recieved three free samples of from the Generation Good community. Two to try in my own laundry and one to share with a friend. (Which was given to my mother as my little sister has very sensitive skin to detergents.)

This product is very highly concentrated so a little goes a long way for my laundry. This product left my clothes looking and feeling clean and I can feel good knowing a lot of the chemicals in detergent are left out of this product.

This product was very easy to use and I did try the product for two loads. Each load came out clean and didn't irritate the skin of any household members.

I would recommend this product to anyone who has sensitive skin and is worried about skin irritants in detergent.

Meet The Product: Seventh Generation Free & Clear

Here is a "speed dating" introduction to this product.

This is Seventh Generation's Free &Clear detergent. This detergent is perfect for those with skin allergies or those who can't have heavily scented products.

This is a 4x ultra concentrated formula to save money on detergent. A little goes a long way with this one.

The detergent is also energy efficient. The product can be picked up at a grocery store near you today.

I recieved these free sample packs from Generation Good.

Bite Size Review of Garnier Whole Blends

Hello everyone thanks to Crowdtap I am able to provide a bite size review of the new Garnier Whole blends. I received samples of the product to give out to friends and to try. 

I had a tea party and was able to distribute the samples there. I gave out a couple of each of the three kinds of shampoos/conditioners.

My favorite whole blends product was the Coconut Water & Vanilla Milk. This product left my hair feeling silky smooth and not frizzy. 

I would recommend this product especially the Coconut Water variety if you are looking to have softer and more moisturized hair!

Bite Size Review of Secret Outlast Xtend

I had the opportunity to sample this new secret brand deodorant from Crowdtap and I am very happy with the results.

The protection lasted all day as you can see in the photo below. There was no residue left after applying the product.

The scent of the product is clean but not overpowering.

This product keeps sweat at BAY all DAY! I would recommend this product to any of you that find yourselves always on the go and always moving.

Thanks Crowdtap!

Bite Size Review of Listerine Vibrant White

I was able to try Listerine vibrant white through crowdtap and I love it! This product will give you results quickly on whitening your teeth. I was able to remove a lot of my surface stains due to tea and coffee. The product started working effectively within just five days. I find that this product works quicker than others it would be compared to and I would definitely recommend trying it if you are looking to whiten your teeth! 

Meet the Product: Mucinex

Thanks to Crowdtap my husband and I are going to try Mucinex medicine! 

This is Mucinex Fast-Max! Both day and night medicines in one so you will only need to buy one box to meet your needs- I thought that in itself was really convenient and money saving because I usually buy a box each of day and night. 

These capsules will help treat your body and help dull symptoms of cough, congestion, aches, sore throat and more! You can pick up this product at your local grocery or pharmacy today :)  

Neutrogena

I had the chance to sample Neutrogena moisturizer and makeup wipes from crowdtap 

The moisturizer was wonderful- it did not break my skin out. I blended the light and darker color to match my tone better

The makeup wipes removed my makeup very quickly. They also had great packaging to prevent them from drying out which is a problem I had with other brands. 

I would use these products again. I really enjoyed the way they work.
