Green really does work!

Like so many of us we all think can a more natural and safe for the environment product work just as well on my dirty laundry??  Well Clorox Green works has set out to spread the word and has sent Matchstick out to help them.  Myself and other selected bloggers were chosen to spread the word of  Green. Matchstick a word of mouth marketing company sent out a great kit so that myself and my fellow friends and family could try out the product.

All this great stuff came inside for me to try out and for once i was actually looking forward to laundry day lol.  

Green works came up with the idea to make a product that was sustainable and made from biodegradable ingredients that were also not tested on animals, which is a big thing for me.

So I put the products to the test and I was surprised.  It really did work!  My clothes came out smelling fresh and were nice and clean.  As well the household cleaner worked just as well on those stubborn stains around the house.  I was happy that these new products were safe for the environment but had not lost the power and strength behind the Clorox name.

Now it was time to spread the word and share all the great samples with friends and family.  I received tons of samples as well as coupons for a free bottle of green works!  My family and friends just love it and they all want to use there coupons right away.  "One step closer to a greener world I say".  We can all do our part even if it is just a small step for you, all those little steps around the world make a big footprint of a difference for our planet.

New Bangs

Ok so my hair today was totally pissing me off!  I have been so busy that i have no time to get it cut.  So i cut my own bangs and they turned out great!

Carlsberg Poker Nite

Matchstick gave me the chance to throw a Carlsberg Poker nite by providing me with a really great set.  All I needed now was beer to make the nite complete.  So I headed to the beer store called up some friends and got together for a nite of poker.  Here are some pics  of our nite.

   

Over all the kit was great and the beer was yummy, none of us had tried it before. If i had to improve one thing i would have offered free beer.  Kinda sucked that i had to go out and buy a case since its not that cheap.

Maybelline Pulse Perfection

I received a great Maybelline kit in the mail from a word of mouth marketing company called Matchstick.  Inside was 7 new vibrating mascara's that were for myself and my friends to try out.

At first we were all shocked that it was Maybelline that had come out with such a product and still kept it a such a low price point. So I hosted a get together with some of my closets friends so we could try it out.  One thing we all had in common was how much we liked how smooth and clump free it went on.  The fact that the brush was plastic and not bristles really helped with an easy application.  We all had a great time playing with some makeup while having some drinks and catching up.  

Here are some pics of the event

Love it or hate it

I must say i love it!! 

Bring back that retro 80's 

Ugly Betty out of commission

So networks are making cut backs during these tough times and it looks like we're going to suffer on Thursdays nights.  As I tune in to watch Ugly Betty at 8pm I see that its not airing.  I go to check the TV listings and can't seem to find when the next episode is going to be on. WTF  

So i did a little research and found out that there will be no new episodes until May 7th the earliest!!  I'm really upset that there was no warning that the show was going off air for almost 2 months.  Don't they think that the viewers have a right to know whats going on with the networking schedules.  So instead they are introducing  a new show into that time slot.

IN THE MOTHERHOOD aired last night in Ugly Betty's slot and I was not at all impressed.   First off I was really upset that UB was not being aired, then the replacing show was not even worth me tuning in for.  I thought maybe since Megan Mullally (from Will & Grace) was in the cast it would be a funny show.  Boy was I wrong.  I found the first episode to be quite boring and the humor was just not there.  Maybe because I'm not a mom I found it rather dry, what do you guys think?? Non the less I don't see it lasting very long on any network.  Is it me or has Megan Mullally not been in anything decent since Will & Grace??

As for all you UG fans, I guess we wait patiently until May 7th for our Betty to come back to us.

Oh and just a little tim bit of info.  The show only has about 2 episodes left until the season finale airs.  With the great weather approaching we lose a lot of great TV :(  But the sun is shinning and the city is all ours. Oh well it will just keep us even more excited for the season to come.

Leggings are back and here to stay

Just in case you thought it was a phase, it's not.  Leggings are once again an essential part of your wardrobe for this upcoming season.  Whether it's the casual leggings and T-shirt look or dressing it up with a cute skirt,  there are so many ways to really kick up your look with just a simple change of color.  

Have you got a cute lil black dress that you love to show off?? Well step up your look a notch by adding some really cute leggings/tights in a fun bright color.  For example you can find all the colors your heart desires at American Apparel

Happy Shopping!

Want Glamourous, Dramatic Lashes???

Well, Loreal has done it and at a great price point!

Like most women out there, we are all looking for that perfect mascara.  Loreal has launched Double Extend Beauty Tubes mascara, and i must say I LOVE IT.  I have tried other long last mascara's that wash off with warm water but this one takes the number one spot for sure. Double Extend Beauty Tubes visibly lengthens as well as provides a no smudge, clump and flake free formula. It also comes with a primer so you get even longer and fuller lashes.  The price point is also a big pleaser since most mascara's with this technology will set you back quite a bit. Beauty Tubes sells for $14.99 and if you check out the site below you will get a 5 dollar off coupon. 

HOW GREAT IS THAT

So to all the lovely ladies out there, go on and register at beautytubes.ca (reference code 1hjz)

for your coupon and head out and pick up this great mascara you will not be disappointed.

Its that time agian...

Ok ladies whether or not you have that someone special in your life there is no reason we should deny ourselves from looking sexy! Its time to get out there and buy something pretty, and for those of us who are single at this time of the year what better therapy than shopping to turn that frown upside down.  So i have gone through and found a couple outfits at LaSenza that are really cute and great. There is something for everyone here.

So vote ladies (and gentlemen) what's your favorite look?? A,B,C or D
