Viva Vantage Paper Towels: A New Experience #teamvivavantage


So a while back, I was in my kitchen cooking breakfast for the family. It was a usual morning with unusually exceptional weather for a fall day. I was looking forward to getting everyone fed and out of the door; eager to enjoy a nice day. In a rush, everyone ate and was out of the door but unfortunately for me, I was neck deep in a hot mess. I mean, how do eggs end up drug across the floor or syrup spilled down the side of the bar stool? 

Not wanting to spend my entire morning cleaning, I decided to skip the mop and broom routine with a new approach. I had recently heard all the hype about how Viva Vantage paper towels and decided to try them out. This morning was a perfect time to pull out my cleaner and see exactly how good the paper towels could hold up to this mess. To my surprise, as I begin to scrub the floor, the Viva Vantage paper towels not only held up, but they seemed to stick to the grim and pull it up like a magnet. The same story goes for the rest of the kitchen, mess after mess was gone in a matter of a few minutes! You couldn't believe the relief I had at not having to drag out the mop and scrub brush. 

If you don't believe me, look out for the #teamvivavantage hype on Facebook or Twitter

Are you excited to see what everyone is talking about? Well here's your chance! Viva Vantage has given me special permission to give my readers a great coupon for $1.25 off a product to try. Isn't that great? Viva Vantage wants new users to see their product in action and they are ready to provide you with a quality product for years to come. Highly rated over Bounty paper towels, Viva Vantage offers you a paper towel that fits your everyday needs at a great price!

I've had so much fun sharing my great experience with you! Do a favor and click the twitter & facebook links above to share this great offer with your readers and friends!

PetArmor Plus IGR: Review

Nothing comes close in life, than companionship, loyalty & just having a good friend to rely on. For some people, its a high school best friend, for others its a significant other, but for me, it's my fur babies. For the last few years I have had the joy of experiencing life with 2 boxers, and trust me, nothing is better than having a dog. A dog will great you after a long, stressful day at work with the biggest smile; it makes me instantly happy to see my little guys so happy and excited to see me. I would do anything for my boys.

With that being said, their health and well being are very important to me. Like most dogs, my boys love to be outdoors; living in West Virginia makes it a must to be outside most of the time. Running through the hills, playing in creeks and rolling in grass are just a few of my boys favorite things to do. As an owner, I can't ignore the dangers that are out there, with all the bugs and disease's. To keep ahead of the game, I use PetArmor Plus IGR to protect my boys from a number of problems.


PetArmor Plus IGR uses the same main ingredient in other costly brands; Fipronil is the number one Vet recommended ingredient to combat fleas, ticks and lice. Save yourself some cash without sacrificing quality. 

I used PetArmour Plus IGR on my dogs, and you can certainly tell the difference from past brands used. My dogs didn't even notice the application of the medicine, and within weeks I noticed they weren't digging into their fur, like EVER. My boys weren't uncomfortable at all after being out doors, and the best thing is that the treatment lasts for months before the need for another application. If you love your dog, than you need this stuff. Again, this medicine kills fleas, ticks, lice & their eggs so your dog isn't being used as a breeding ground for disgusting pests. This also prevents the spread of diseases from the carrier pests.

PetArmor Plus IGR also contains another amazing ingredient called Novaluron which is an insect growth regulator (IGR). This ingredient instantly kills eggs and stops the regrowth cycle for new infestations. Safe, friendly, and healthy for your pet, this product will save you time and money and keep your pet loving life.




PetArmour Plus IGR comes in three different packages, based on the dogs weight, so make sure to pick up the correct package. Each pack contains 3 treatments, use one treatment per month, this will give you 3 months of treatments per package. 


  • 6.5 to 22 lbs.
  • 23 to 44 lbs.
  • 45 to 88 lbs.
  • 89 to 132 lbs.


  • PetArmor Plus IGR can be found instore or online from Walmart.

    For more information, please visit PetArmour's official website.

It thrills me that we send out little packages of fun on a daily basis, and people can’t wait to run to their mailbox to see if their May Book has arrived yet. I never imagined I would be doing this, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.”
    Mica May, Designer/Owner


    As a college student I love to have cute notebooks for my classes, plus they are hard to lose! May Designs is really one of the best things I've found in a very long time! On my search for a custom notebook I was very happy to find May Designs. I'll first start off by saying May Designs is a company with an innovative website that allows you to customize your own notebook, and not just notebooks they offer everything from day planners or budget planners, even wedding items! 

    Their online web tool helps your come up with a one of a kind design you are going to fall in love with!

    Studio Gear Cosmetics: Holiday Smokey Eye Palette



    ''Studio Gear Cosmetics is a prestigious cosmetics brand featuring a full collection of professional makeup brushes, revolutionizing complexion formulas, and a wide selection of color products for the eyes, cheeks, and lips. This is a line created true to the concept that every woman deserves professional high quality cosmetics at a reasonable price.'' - Studio Gear


      

    I love the holidays and gathering with friends and loved ones. One of the best parts to me though is making sure I rock the season in style. Who doesn't love to look their best when they are around all the people they love and care about, and I am no exception. Lucky for me Studio Gear was awesome enough to send me this gorgeous smokey eye palette to make sure my make up was on par with the rest of the festivities. Just like Christmas lights I love to sparkle and shimmer.


    Smokey eyes are all the rage and you can never go wrong, so this little palette is going to come in handy for alot. Date nights, girls nights or just going to the store, rock the best smokey eye with the Studio Gear Holiday Smokey Eye Palette. As you can see above the palette includes a step by step guide for users that may be new to blending different shadows. I love the blush that is included because it really makes the eyes pop. You can use any of the colors separate or mix and match for different looks, its very versatile and great for all occasions!




    My favorite aspect about this product is the fact that my eye make up lasted all day, without any touch ups and it still looked great when I was ready to take it off. It didn't smear or leak and I didn't have any problems, which was great, who likes constantly checking to make sure their make up hasn't smeared? As a first time user I will definitely be ordered more. The eye shadow is pigmented so you don't even have to user a primer! Add some gloss and mascara like I did and you are ready for a great day time look, or splash some red lipstick for a sassy night out, so many options!

    Right now you can grab this palette at a holiday special price of just $25! I also recommend you check out their other amazing kits and brushes, from the reviews I've read on the website alot of people are falling in love with Studio Gear.

    DottieBox:Etsy Finds Delivered to Your Door!


    *I received a mini-box in order to get a firsthand account of the products offered. All opinions are my honest opinions and I was not compensated to provide a positive post*

    If you are like me, handmade items can hold a very special place in very special hearts. I have always appreciated the time and love that artisans put into their items, the quality is above and beyond compared to corporate sponsored companies pushing mass produced items under our noses. I love coming across new artisans and their works and DottieBox helped me do this my sending me their minibox, which is a smaller version of their full sized box. Dottiebox offers a really cool monthly subscription full of really cute items.



    Dottiebox is very proud of the artists they feature in their boxes and spend alot of time researching on the internet to find just the right products they want to feature in their boxes. This really helps small artists advertise some really fun products you may not know are out there. On top of that the packaging is really some of the cutest I have ever seen. Each box is hand wrapped and packed and comes out really cute!



    In my minibox I received some really awesome anchor coasters from Dinglewood Design & Press , they offer hand stamped items for all occasions, anything from holiday cards to wedding invitations. I also received a super cute bottle of nail polish from Guilty Glitter. One thing I really love about Guilty Glitter is that they are a cruelty free company and all  of their nail polishes are free from dibutyl phthalate, tolune, and formaldehyde, all of which are very harsh and toxic chemicals.


    I was very impressed with the quality of the items I received. If you are interested in becoming apart of DottieBox head on over to their website and check out their options and support up and coming artisans!
