COVERGIRL VoxBox #goBloom

I was lucky enough to receive the #CoverGirl VoxBox from #Influenster which features their brand new mascara LashBloom by LashBlast. It comes in a cute Barbie pink tube. The packaging is very girly.

 I haven't been a fan of the other LashBlast mascaras in the past. I'm more of a Maybelline girl, however, I was pleasantly surprised with this one. The brush was easy to handle and I no trouble applying a nice first coat to my lashes. I always curl my lashes because they have no natural curl. 

I'll let the picture speak for it's self. I'm extremely happy with the results. #goBloom

******I received this product complimentary from #influenster for testing purposes.

Xoxo,

Low Cost Cloth Diapering

I've been cloth diapering for over a month now. I decided to get a low cost option just in case it didn't work out. I decided to purchase the bumGenius Econobum Cloth Diaper Set which includes 3 One Size covers, 12 cotton prefolds and a wetbag. I found that toysrus.com had the best price $49.99 with free shipping. These diapers can go from newborn all the way up to about 30lbs. These are just a basic no frills diaper, but they do what they're supposed to.

Venus Snap VoxBox from Influenster


I recently received my VoxBox from Influenster and I'm pretty excited to share what I got and my experience. I received the new Venus Snap with Embrace on-the-go razor. It's super cute and easy to use. I love that it's small enough to fit in my purse and the case it comes in is sleep and smooth. I found that the tiny handle was not as sturdy as I was expecting but other than that I am vert happy with it. It's conceived especially for summer vacation. You can slip it in your purse and beach bag and take it anywhere.

What to get a 3 Month Infant for Easter?

When I my 2 year old daughter had her first Easter she was nearly 6 months old. My son on the other hand is only 3 months for his first official holiday, Easter. I tried not to overthink about what to put in his basket as he's so little he doesn't need much and he isn't going to remember. His basket actually turned out better than I thought and is actually for cute. Here's what he got:

1.) Easter themed Onesie that says "I'm ready for the hunt." $3.25, Walmart

2.) 2 Fisher Price rattles/teethers (one is an elephant and the other a lion). I'm not sure the exact price as I received these free when I created a baby registry, Target.

3.) A Baby's First Easter Stuffed Bunny. $3.50, Dollar General. I was unpleasantly surprised when I got home and seen the price of this. When I decided to pick this up, it was in a box labeled $1 with a bunch  of others just like it. Thank you DG for this because I wanted to spend an extra $2.50. Uh well. 

The Easter grass and basket were given to me, FREE!

The chocolate bunny you see is for my daughter. 



There you have it! Enjoy!

Here's a few things I picked up for my son and daughter from Kohls. I printed off a coupon for $10 off a kids apparel purchase of $30 or more and used it.  It brought my balance from $44.94 to $33.94.

 All the stuff I got for my daughter is by Jumping Bean and it's in size 4t.

3.) Cute as a Bunny Kitten Tee
