New York Color Lipshine Review

I am loving the NYC Liquid Lipshine that Influenster recently sent me as a product test with my voxbox. NYC products are affordable (.99 - $4.99) and there are plenty of color choices to match your needs.

NYC Liquid Lipshine retails for $2.49 and is well worth the low price. I like the soft-tip wand that is unlike most lip glosses I've tried. The color is highly pigmented, but very subtle to wear every day. It contains Vitamin E and is available in 10 shades.

The shine was not too glossy or sticky, which is the worst feeling from a lip gloss.

The color and shine lasted longer than I expected and I will definitely be wearing this to celebrate New Year's tonight!

Check out the New York Color website for product information and the variety of products to match your style!

*I received the following product as a part of Influenster's product testing program. However, all opinions are my own and are based on my feedback after using the free product.*

Tyler's Coffee Review


Tyler's Coffee recently sent me their regular coffee product to review and it was one good cup of Joe. They recommend using a french press to make the coffee in order to get the best aroma and flavor, but since I have a Vietnamese coffee press I made the regular coffee they sent me with my press. It's great using coffeemakers too!

  • Acid-free coffee that is good for teeth enamel
  • Reduces Acid Reflux
  • Limits heartburn, indigestion, bloating
  • Does not irritate sensitive stomachs
  • Interstitial Cystitis Network Approved
Tyler's Coffee comes in regular or decaf. They're made from Brazilian Arabica beans.

If you have sensitive teeth like I do or love coffee, but it often irritates your stomach, give Tyler's Coffee a try. 

I was surprised at how strong and flavorful this coffee tasted! 

If you're interested, you can purchase directly from their website
here: 
                    Tyler's Coffee Products

One pack of Tyler's coffee makes about 18 cups of coffee. 

Based on the aroma, taste, and how many cups of coffee I've made from just one small pack, I highly recommend their coffee and rate the product 5 out of 5.


Just Dance 3 Review




Just Dance 3 was given to me during Thanksgiving, and I've been addicted ever since. I worked hard this year to lose 16 lbs. and finding ways to maintain my weight hasn't been easy!

I lost the weight from June - October using the My Fitness Pal app for the iPhone. You can also use the website if you don't have an iPhone. (See my "Lose Weight" blog post for more info.).

Just Dance 3 helped me lose another 2 lbs. in the past month. It keeps me active on those days when my regular workouts are too mundane and routine. For each song, you get "sweat" points and when added together, can be the equivalent of walking, jogging, or swimming for 30 minutes.

I'm not compensated for this review in any way, but I've had so much fun and such a positive experience with this video game that I want everyone to know about it!

The Wii is pricey, but well worth it for your family. Your kids will love this game - exercise while having fun. Get your entire family to play!

iCaughtSanta Review and Giveaway


Want to show your kids proof that Santa was in the house the night before to deliver their Christmas gifts? Catch Santa "in the act" on iCaughtSanta.com. Here's how you can get the proof:

  1. Upload any image where you want Santa to be "captured"
  2. Create the photo by choosing the Santa pose and border you want
  3. Share the photo by downloading, emailing, or sending it to your nearest print center
It's that simple! 

iCaughtSanta is a great idea for kids to be able to see Santa in action. It makes Christmas a more magical time. No more making dad dress up as Santa and risk getting caught by the kids!

You can also choose to create photos with other icons besides Santa! I'm definitely going to use this site for upcoming birthdays and events.

What do you think of this idea and how excited would your kids be to see Santa in their homes?
My dog was caught taking off his ugly sweater so he's getting a lump of coal for Christmas! Just kidding I love my dog :)


As a bonus, iCaughtSanta has provided me with 5 codes to give away to 5 lucky winners. Each code is valid towards 1 Santa photo ($9.99 value). 

Flash giveaway will run from Dec. 14 - Dec. 17 (11:59PM).
