Sleep Pink Party!

I was able to have a Sleep Pink party sponsored by Estroven!

I was unable to get girlfriends on short notice – so instead  I had a party that involved my two little girls and introducing them to people they did not get to meet because the disease took them before they were born.  I want them to know these people and the strong individuals that they were.

I waas able to put them each in pink bedding and some pink PJ’s – we had pink toothbrushes – we had pink kool-aid – and ate pink popsicles before bed!

Here is us setting up!

We had a Christmas for added dramatic fun!

Pink Bedding is a must!

We also had a Pink Cupcake with birthday cake scent for a yummy environment!

Cuddles are the best!

Nothing better than pink toothbrushes to wash away pink mouths from popsicles!

I am not sure how much of the information or picture images of these people they will actually retain. I just know for me it was almost healing to relive the moments I had spent with these people in my life. I still remember and will always. Maybe now my girls will too.

During the month of October, Estroven is providing women with the necessary tools to host a Sleep Pink-themed party on SleepPink.com. The site will allow party hosts to upload photographs of their events, and for every photo, the company will pledge $100 to benefit the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. It will also provide information to help organize the Sleep Pink parties including downloadable invitations, menopause-friendly
drink and food recipe suggestions, as well as décor and entertainment ideas.

Girl Problems Solved by Neuma by Hair Care USA

I love to blow dry my hair, but hate to see what happens after I do! I dry my hair twice a day! Once in the morning and then again at lunch after I have worked out!  Let me tell you about some damage that can happen! When I put my hair in a ponytail it looks like my hair is a million different lengths and is dry and damaged – which it most likely – is hello heat?!

I was given two different products by Hair Care USA to try – the Neuma collection’s Blow Dry Lotion and Smoothing Creme.

Pretty good sample size – huh? 🙂

On my hair I tried the Blow Dry Lotion and let me tell you – I didn’t get any photos of the before – but you can tell by my ponytail after that this stuff is awesome. There is no real damage showing so that to shows how good this product is. It instantly smoothes out my hair!

Per their website: Neuma Blow Dry Lotion – The essential companion for your blow dryer – this weightless formula adds hold, manageability and protection to any blow out. Hair feels soft, smooth and with added shine. Featuring a proprietary blend of plant extracts and essential oils, Phyto Colour Complex™ maximizes colour hue, vibrancy and longevity while Phyto UV Shield™, an exclusive blend of plant nutrients, protects colour from UVA & UVB oxidation. Helps prevent damage from styling and hot tools. Humidity resistant formula soothes hair and controls frizz.

Oh yeah – and check out what it contains – good stuff!

Phyto Colour Complex: A gentle, natural surfactant system that removes environmental pollutants, not colour, from hair. Plant extracts restore natural health and shine while maximizing colour retention and extending colour life.

•  Phyto UV Shield: A proprietary blend of certified organic plant extracts enhance depth of tone, reflectivity and colour vibrancy. Essential oils shield colour from UVA, UVB oxidation and fading.
• Sunflower Seed Oil: Provides UV protection while adding shine and shielding hair from heat damage.

• Sage Extract: Soothes and conditions hair.
• Rose Hips Fruit Extract: Soothes and softens hair.
• Apricot Kern Oil: Helps smooth cuticle and control flyaways while conditioning and adding shine.
• Aroma provided by pure essential oils of Lavender, Mandarin Orange, Vanilla – true aromatherapy.

My daughter is always having issues with her hair looking rough and stringy so I used the Smoothing Creme on her hair. I am not able to use these products so much as my hair becomes really greasy really fast. Abby’s hair is perfect for it though!

BEFORE:

You can see the difference in the before and after and I even think with more uses – the better it will look. It is a great start and better than some of the regular drug store options we have tried!!

AFTER

Per their website: Neuma Smoothing Creme – This unique crème locks in moisture and delivers weightless shine while taming frizz and flyaways. Featuring a proprietary blend of plant extracts and essential oils, Phyto Colour Complex™ maximizes colour hue, vibrancy and longevity while Phyto UV Shield™, an exclusive blend of plant nutrients, protects colour from UVA & UVB oxidation. Humidity resistant formula leaves hair silky smooth with a healthy sheen.

Oh and more good stuff!

PaperDirect – Oh My!

Birthday Cards, Business Cards, Post Cards – OH MY!

PaperDirect is your one stop shop for everything! As you know (or may not know until now!) we are expecting Baby #3! I am already thinking about showers invitations (for fun not gifts), birth announcement post cards, fun holiday cards with a belly to be shown off, and so much more!

I am already a busy mom/student/full-time employee and have limited time and schedule – so PaperDirect will be perfect for all my ideas!

Right now I am focused on the fall here in Alaska as it will be our first one here! I am the crazy lady who likes to send notes to the family around holidays as we are busy and are aways from family and friends – so a I try to send out a letter of what we are up to and make it fun all the while! I also find that some places to purchase stationary skip the fall and head straight to Christmas so let me tell you how excited I was when I saw the selection of Fall Border Papers!  I found two that made me smile and I might have to alternate which ones I print and send – which do you like best?

By all means through check out all the Fall Border Pages they have to offer – 4 pages worth to browse through! Oh My!

I also have been invited to help with my daughter’s  class outings and I really thought it would be neat if when we go to the Hay Ride this fall that we can have a Fall Banner to put up on the table where out class lunches will go and we will be sitting – trust me, 5 year olds need visuals!  I mean – really, how neat are these? They would do great for fall festivals and bazaars!

Now – Since baby is still on the brain – I had to share with you the cutest of cute baby announcements – I LIKE!

Review: Rob Keller MD – OGF & FANTASTIC OFFER!

I was a gymnast for about 9 years and then rode horses for another 7 – through all of that body bashing I was doing – I developed aches and pains at an early age. Moving to North Carolina helped some as the heat was a bit of a relief – then we came to Alaska and with cold came back the aches and pains. *sigh*

Then I was introduced to the ORIGINAL GLUTATHIONE FORMULA™ by Rob Keller MD

What sold me on trying this product was the list of benefits:

Enhances Immune System Function

Toxin Elimination

Increases Energy and Endurance

Improves Internal Organ Function

Enhances Brain Function

Promotes Healthy Skin

As I get older I look for help with multiple of these listed benefits – why not try it all with one product instead of 10?

When I got the bottle I was instructed to take 6 capsules at once, instead of 3 in the am and 3 in pm. I am not going to lie the smell of this product is not pleasant. I was able to get them down by plugging my nose and with each day it got easier. I am not very good at swallowing pills all together – so please keep that in mind! The reason behind this is so that I wouldn’t forget to take them later and so that I could get the full benefit.

Learn about the many benefits of Original Glutathione Formula™

Glutathione is a vital tri-peptide consisting of Cysteine, Glycine, and Glutamine. These amino acids are naturally manufactured in every cell of your body with high concentrations in the heart, lung, liver, spleen, brain, muscle and skin tissue. Glutathione functions as both an antioxidant and an antitoxin for your body, attracting free radicals and toxins like a very powerful magnet. Glutathione boosts the immune system and helps reduce the damage of free radicals on your cells.

Although Glutathione is naturally prevalent in every cell of your body, starting in your early 20’s your body’s natural production of glutathione starts to decline by as much as 10% – 15% every decade. Additionally, stress, exercise, infection, injury and environmental toxins can also reduce your body’s glutathione levels. To increase your body’s natural defense against pre-mature aging and cellular damage you must increase your glutathione levels.

Flu like feelings, running nose, slight itchy skin, headaches etc. This is NOT an allergic reaction, this is the heavy metal toxins being released from your body. I was told to just keep taking the capsules. The symptoms I had – were merely a runny nose and I honestly wouldn’t have cared for the relief that I began to feel after about 8 days of taking these. Sincerely. I even got a few other added benefits of sleeping better ( I usually have restless leg syndrome and whether or not this is a benefit – I noticed a difference) I also felt less aches, and pains (my main focus) – so this product was a success!

I think if I was able to continue to take it longer I might have been able to give more benefits – but as I am now pregnant I have gone off all supplements and extras. I will; however, look back into using this product once I am at a point of no more breast-feeding. And at $39.95 on auto-ship, this isn’t that bad of a price for the relief it provided!

**Plus – I was told even dogs can take it for joint relief!**
