I am one of those people that take great pride in my skin. As I have gotten older, little things such as fine lines and wrinkles have started to bother me. I recently was introduced to a new product I had not been too familiar with before,  Day by Day Beauty Vitamin C Serum. Since I am the type of person who is always willing to try something new for my skin, I decided to see how it works. After cleansing my face in the morning, I applied a few drops of the serum to my problematic areas on my face which are my forehead, cheeks, chin, and neck areas. I instantly noticed how well the product easily absorbed into my skin without leaving a shine or greasy residue left behind which I especially like. The serum did not burn my face nor did it leave any redness which makes this suitable for sensitive skin.

After about a week of applying the product both day and in the evening before bedtime, I noticed how my fine lines and wrinkles started to appear more settled as my skin seemed to be more smoother and I was thrilled with having to not worry about adding extra foundation for once. I felt more confident then ever before that this product actually made my appearance more youthful and radiant. I even received several compliments from strangers while out and about which made my day!

Children's Claritin Mom Crew Playmaker Playdate

Disclosure: "As a member of the Children's Claritin Mom Crew, I received product samples and promotional items to share and use as I see fit. No monetary compensation has taken place and any opinions expressed by me are honest and reflect my actual experience."

I love this time of year since summer is right around the corner. Now that the kids are out of school, it was the perfect opportunity to plan a fun play date to kick off the start of summer.

Since both my family and friends as well as their children suffer from allergies, it was great to be able to not only make this fun event all about the kids yet also share my enthusiasm for what "Children's Claritin" has done for relieving our most annoying allergy symptoms by being able to share with my guests some valuable coupons towards their purchase as well as a few other goodies to take home with them.

I planned the playdate for an early afternoon at a nearby park that featured a nice picnic area as well as water features so that the kids can have fun getting wet when they wanted to cool off. Everyone brought their own picnic lunch where I served homemade strawberry lemonade and we made Smores for dessert.

The kids did a craft where they made a summer themed door knob decoration and all had a great time!
When it was time to go, all the moms left with a Children's Claritin spring tote, refrigerator notepad with the Children's Claritin logo, and last but certainly not least, a high value coupon for $2 off their next purchase of Children's Claritin.  

It was a fun time had by all!

NEW BURT'S BEES BRIGHTENING DARK SPOT CORRECTOR with DAISY EXTRACT

Disclosure: I received this product sample for free since I am part of Glamour Magazine's Glambassador program. My opinions in regards to the product are therefore my own.

I am one of those people who take pride in her appearance especially when it comes to my face. I always make sure to never leave the house without applying sunscreen and never go to bed at night without removing my makeup. Even with taking a proactive approach to my skin, I notice as I age, my complexion appears a bit blotchy and a few dark spots have appeared which have become quite bothersome to me.

I was excited to see that one of my favorite skincare brands, "Burt's Bees" has put out a great new product that targets the appearance of dark spots and evens skin tone for a brighter, more luminous complexion.

The first time I applied the product which is a very light, non-greasy serum that quickly absorbs into your skin, I instantly felt like my skin tone appeared more radiant with a natural glow. Besides the product benefits I have mentioned, the scent is really quite pleasant as it reminds me of walking through a field and smelling a fresh daisy since it contains daisy extract.

After several weeks of using the product, I started to notice that the few dark spots that were ever so noticeable seemed to diminish quite a bit in appearance so that meant less cover up needed since you can barely even tell that the dark spots were even there.

This product is suitable for all skin types especially for people with sensitive skin as it will not irritate your face after you apply it.

So if you are bothered by annoying dark spots and/or just want to have a more even skin tone along with a brighter, more luminous complexion then give New Burt's Bees Brightening Dark Spot Corrector with Daisy Extract a try.
