FarFaria App Review and Giveaway

I was so excited for the chance to try out a new educational app for my kids. My kids are constantly looking out for new apps. FarFaria is an app that get any child into the world of books. Literally. FarFaria, is a land full of books that can be enjoyed in different ways. The app reads or sings to you, or read to your self. They also incorporate books that are part of the Common Core standards. As a person that works with young children as well as has her own, any way to spark that interest in reading is great!

 FarFaria is a free app, but with low cost subscription cost. If you look t the amount of money you are saving instead of buying books or other reading products it's worth it. And I don't say that about many apps. I RARELY pay for any app.

 I am using the app on my iPad. I believe it works on apple and android devices, but not Amazon currently. So for this review I figured the best was to see this app was in action, instead of pictures. After you watch the video enter for the chance to wins 3 month subscription to FarFaria!

Azure Naturals Ultimate Vitamin C Review

I've never tried vitamin c for the face before and was a little scared when it said hyaluronic acid was in it! But after some research the hyaluronic acid helps the vitamin c work on your skin.

                                   



Azure Naturals describes the benefits of the ultimate vitamin c as, "one of the fastest working and most effective vitamin C serums available. Perfect for Sun Damaged Skin, Fades Sunspots Improves Discoloration, and Helps Protect Against Future Damage. Refines Skin Texture, Visibly Plumping and Firming Skin, Stimulates Collagen Production, Reducing Fine Lines and Wrinkles."

They also want you to buy with confidence. "Made in the USA With The Highest Quality Natural and Organic Ingredients Available: 98% Natural, 72% Organic. Contains No Alcohol, No Parabens, Gluten Free, Plant Based, No GMO's, Cruelty Free and Never Tested On Animals! Key Ingredients: 20% Vitamin C + Vitamin E + 11% Hyaluronic Acid + Ferulic Acid. Also contains Organic Aloe + Advanced Amino Complex + Organic Jojoba Oil."

If you don't absolutely love any of our products we will give you a full refund, including shipping, no matter where you buy the product!"


After about a week I saw a difference in my skin. It was a little brighter and my fine lines were a little less noticeable. I also noticed that when I did get any pimples they healed very quickly.


                                    


The serum it's self is a bit watery and looks like you squeezed and orange into a bottle. The smell is a light citrus smell! It goes on smooth and dries pretty much instantly, so you can start your everyday face routine.

Azure naturals has given 3 of my readers a chance to try it for free! You can enter down below! Good luck!

    Crave Naturals Brow and Lash Kit Review

    I received this product for review from crave naturals to review. All opinions are my own.

                                     

    This kit has the cutest package! You can definitely keep the kit in the packaging. These two tools are a necessity for any beauty routine. I'll show you how I used them.

                          

    I groomed my eyebrows in an upward direction with the spoolie, which can be used also for your lashes. And then I used brow powder on the eyebrow brush. The eyebrow brush is soft, I normally prefer a stiffer brush, but this one does work well.

                                    

    Excuse the no makeup pics! I used the lash comb to unclump some lashes. The lash comb went right thru the lashes and separated them. 

                                     

    And for the final brush, you can use this for your brows also. It's up to you!

    Overall I did like this product, but what sold me was the packaging. So I know your thinking, I can get these anywhere for really cheap. Yes, I agree. But, with crave naturals you are getting a higher quality kit. I have had these come with brush kits and they literally fall apart from the first use. These are made sturdy and would recommend getting these to add to your makeup brushes.

    You can get a kit for your self just follow the directions below!

    1. Go to amazon.com and search eyelash comb.
    2. Find the brow and lash kit and add it to your cart.
    3. Before finalizing the order, use promo code: QQMSRCOC to receive 25% OFF your order.
    4. Reviews are appreciated.


    Make those  brows work!

    Pure Sol Konjac Facial sponge review

                  

                                   
    I loved the bamboo charcoal version of this sponge so much, that I wanted to try out the original Konjac facial sponge. Once again I'm excited to try an Eco friendly sponge that is 100% natural and biodegradable.

    The following pictures are close up of the packaging, so you can read more details about the sponge.
                                   

                                  

    The sponge itself comes dry and compact, just run it in water and it plumps up full and soft.
                             
                                  

                                  

    This sponge can be used with or without a facial cleanser, but I chose to use one. You only have to put a small amount because it suds up a lot. The sponge gently exfoliates, it's not rough at all. While I do like this sponge, I like its bamboo charcoal sister better. It works better for my skin. I think the original might be better for people that don't have pimples or oily skin.

    You can pick one up at amazon.

    Have you tried a pure sol Konjac facial sponge yet?
