New Perfume? No way...It will just give me a headache,...

I got an email from Influenster earlier this month about a new VoxBox. I was too excited, until I got the message telling me it was a fragrance. I thought great, I cannot just do any fragrance. I am one of those lucky people that get headaches from certain scents. Shopping for a new perfume is a long progress of trying it, cleaning it off, getting a headache or not. So I dreaded it.

I received it it today. Ralph Lauren's Tender Romance, I got it free to sample and test.

From the Sephora description:
Notes: 
Ginger, Pear Accord, Bergamot, White Magnolia Accord, Jasmine, Ginger Lily Accord, Cashmere Woods Accord, Benzoin, Musk. 


The Musk, thankfully was not much. It is a very sweet light scent. Main thing for me, no headache. I actually really like it! It's almost a bit fruity which I love, and will compliment my sprays as I like to mix fragrances.

I must say, this is a must try for anyone wanting to try something light, sweet, and a bit romantic for the spring season.

Influenster Voxbox Spring Fling Edition

 My Influenster #SpringFlingVoxBox



I received the following box in the mail from influenster. These are items that I get to try for FREE!! All I have to do is review them and tell my friends about these great products.



   The first item that I tried from the box was the Mascara from RIMMEL LONDON. Scandaleyes retro glam. Very nice product for the price. I still prefer my Benefit's They're Real, but this is a close second. It gave a very retro looking full eye lash. Very nice for a grocery store brand mascara. See the below photo.

I then tried Nivea's Skin Firming Hydration lotion. I will have to continue using it to really see how I like it. I want to really see if it firms up the skin within 2 weeks like it claims. I did like the feel of the lotion and the smell.



 
 I have yet to try the nail. To be continued...

 Playtex. I cannot say more. They are the best at what they do. I use their regular Sport tampons previously, so when I received them I was very happy.  These tampons had an added scent. It helped you feel more at ease when working out during girl time. The scent not too much. I will use these again and will buy them. I work out 4 days a week, and these will help me stay on my game, even during that time of the month.

Got 10 minutes?? Got a Quick & Easy Meal for you!



Quick, Easy, & Tasty


Thanks to BzzAgent & Kroger I got the opportunity to try an amazingly easy meal for my family from Kroger for FREE. This will be my new go to meal when I want something that is not only quick and easy, but very tasty too.

What did I get? Garlic Bread, A Frozen Skillet Meal, and a Ready to make salad.

First I made the Garlic Bread
Pre-heated the Oven, place it on a cookie sheet & baked it in the oven. It only took 8-10 minutes. I actually let this bake while I prepared everything else. It worked out perfectly!


Second I made the Salad.
I chose the House Salad with Bacon. It included everything you needed for the perfect salad.
It only took a few minutes to make!


Here is What the Kit Looks like in the Store
It included Ranch dressing, Cheese, Croutons, and Bacon
The Salad Was Delicious
You can find this in the Frozen section
 Lastly, I made the Skillet Meal by Kroger. I was very surprise on how easy it was to make. I chose the Tuscan Pasta. I thought it would go best with the garlic bread, and I was right. It was very good. It had chicken, Asparagus, and a creamy sauce. I would highly recommend this meal in particular. I have been craving a good Italian meal, but a restaurant is always pricey. I know the next time I need my Italian fix, I will be driving to Kroger. 10 minutes, and done.
This is when I first put it in the pan.
Almost done




On the plate, yes this meal fed 3 adults.

Kashi Hummus Crisps, #GotitFree



This is my very first post. Very fitting as I start a new journey of healthy. I am currently training to jog a 5K in the future. Originally it would be in a year, but now I have a goal of 8 months. I really want to do a color run. Wish me luck.

As you can see by the above photo, I am posting to describe a new item I got to try via Buzz Agent program for FREE. It's by Kashi. It's Hummus Crisps. I got to try the Olive Oil and Sea Salt. I was impressed. They will be a very nice healthy treat for me on my new journey. I LOVE hummus, and I am looking forward to trying other flavors.
