5 Steps to Flawless with Rimmel London

In the quest to find good makeup, I've tried hundreds of products from dozens of brands at every price point.  There are basically two factions in the makeup world, the high-end "prestige" brands that are sold in department and specialty stores, and the "drugstore" brands that are sold at mass retailers and drugstores. There used to be a very distinct quality difference between the two factions, but in recent years, that line has dissolved quite a bit. For the most part, the "prestige" brands are still very good quality, but the "drugstore" brands are starting to show some of that same quality, but are staying very affordable.

Shark® Rotator® Powered Lift-Away™ Speed

Wondering what to get your Mother, or perhaps your wife for Mother's Day?  Let me give you a big hint!  Get her a Shark® Rotator® Powered Lift-Away™ Speed.  Usually, I am not a fan of giving or receiving a vacuum cleaner as a gift.  But, this would be my one and only exception.

I was ecstatic to receive my Shark and I had JUST VACUUMED with my other vacuum.  Well, I thought I had vacuumed until I quickly went over the floor with my Shark® Rotator® Powered Lift-Away™ Speed.  Much to my surprise, the Shark cleaned way better than the vacuum I was using,  WAY better.  My floors are going to love me from now on,  because I plan on using the Shark® Rotator® Powered Lift-Away™ Speed FOREVER!

Avocado season is in full swing and the price of these delectable fruits has come down to a price that makes it friendlier to making guacamole.

Vera Mona Color Switch Review

Building and maintaining a decent makeup brush collection can be a rather costly endeavor. It can also be a rather drawn out process of buying and buying and buying until you find brushes that you are completely happy with. I have around 15 eye shadow brushes, but I only use 3 different ones. One I use for all over and transition colors, one I use for the crease and outer V, and the third I use for blending. Since two of those brushes have to pull double color duty, I had to get a towel and spend several minutes rubbing the brushes back and forth until I got the color out of them. I found myself lamenting having brushes with excellent color pick up. My eye shadow application time was triple what it should have been.

House Monkey

If you have an active family, or a large family, you have probably encountered some snafus when it comes to managing and organising. Who has to be where, and whose night is it to do the dishes? One minor error and the answer to those might both be Little Johnny. Mom might end up doing dishes at 2 am because it's the only time she has free since Little Johnny was at soccer practice.

Minecraft Story Mode Review and Giveaway

Photo provided by Telltale Games

A lot of families out there have at least one member who was bitten hard by the Minecraft bug. My family has suffered greatly with the joy of Minecraft. We have been addicted from the first time we played it on Xbox 360. A few years and hundreds of hours and millions of blocks placed later, we are still just as addicted, playing on Xbox One. When we heard about Minecraft Story Mode by TellTale Games, we knew we were going to have to have it. The idea of a playable story featuring the pixelated blocks we all have grown to love, was a very exciting one. My husband and I have played a few other TellTale Games releases, and we've always quite enjoyed the game play and story lines. Most of TellTale's games aren't family-oriented, so we have never played them with the kids. Minecraft Story Mode is rated E10+, meaning it is appropriate for anyone over the age of 10.

Lash Factory Secret Word Page

Drinks are on me.

One of my favorite things about warmer weather, is sitting outside in the evening with a good book, or some good company, and a delicious cocktail. I'm not a fan of very many beers, or wines. I'm a liquor girl, so I need a good sippin' drink in order to keep from getting snoggered before the end of chapter 1. If I'm by myself reading, I stick to simple drinks. My go to is a whiskey sour. If I've got some company though, I like to serve something with a little more pizzaz, something that looks pretty and tastes delicious. Who doesn't like to impress their guests with their bartending skills?
