Happy Valentine’s Day! The winner of my Good Earth Beauty Lip Balm set that includes White Chocolate, Bubble Gum and Pink Lemonade lip balms is….Tammy!
Congrat’s Tammy! I have sent you an email!
I’m certain I will be having another giveaway soon…stay tuned readers!
Reduce your risk of missing the mark this Mother’s Day by avoiding these popular beliefs or “Mammoth Mom Myths”:
5. Moms LOVE to spend their free time cleaning! A new mop, dish scrubber or toilet brush will make her feel more loved and needed and oh-so-special.
4. What all mothers REALLY want is to cater to their families 24/7, so give her that honor by wrapping up a brand new serving tray set complete with pre-made hors d’oeuvres to feed everyone in the family (make sure it’s got lots of Dad’s favorite snacks—Mom LOVES to please her man)!
3. Two words: Mom Jeans! That’s right—the kind that really emphasize the backside with HUGE pockets! Moms LOVE to look like their own mothers and can’t wait to ‘fill their mothers’ jeans.’ Make sure you sneak in her closet and find her pants size, and then go up a size or two to give her plenty of growing room—you know, the way she would always buy your shoes a little bigger. She’ll appreciate how thoughtful you were to actually investigate her current size and to anticipate her growing assets to boot!
2. Nothing shows how much you care like a brand new shiny cemetery plot! Wrap up her final resting place with a bright pink bow! Then surprise her with a Sunday drive and tell her you’re taking her to her brand new home! When she sees that plot of land that you painstakingly picked out just for her, she’ll cry real tears of joy. It’ll also fill her heart with pride that you’ve become such an excellent planner and that you’ve taken care of all the details so she can move onto the next life without a hitch!
And the number one mammoth mom myth to avoid…
YIKES! Make it STOP! Reboot! Put on the brakes! So what DOES Mom really want? Something pure – something personal – something pampering. She wants SeabuckWonders! Give her serenity, health and beauty in a bottle with SeabuckWonders’ personal care product line. These natural, non-GMO, cruelty-free, organic products are packed with a high concentration of sea buckthorn oil for maximum results. That means healthier, softer and more beautiful skin for Mom and for all those who add these products to their daily routine. Kick it up a notch by adding in some of SeabuckWonders’ supplements like the Sea Buckthorn Berry and Seed Oils and Omega-7 Complete. Among others, the respected Dr. Mehemet Oz of “The Dr. Oz Show” has been praising sea buckthorn oils and liquid supplements for their profound balancing, soothing and rejuvenating properties. This cherished “super fruit” is rich in antioxidants, essential amino acids, vitamin E, the rare Omega 7, and 190 other bioactive nutrients. (Plus, Moms think Dr. Oz is HOT!) You can find all of SeabuckWonders’ amazing products at www.seabuckwonders.com. Purchase online or find a store in your area, and make Mom happy this Mother’s Day. She deserves it!
LOL!!! I think I’d ground my kids if they got me mom jeans!

Happy first day of Spring! In celebration of Winter being over — thank goodness — I have put together 2 giveaways of fab Spring makeup. If you win Giveaway #1, you get a Tarte package of:
tarte amazonian clay waterproof cream shadow in moss — an olive-green cream eye shadow
tarte maracuja divine shine lip gloss in blissful — a creamy peach gloss
tarte maracuja blush & glow in sunlight — a bronzey-peach cream stick blush and liquid highlighter.
tarte amazonian clay 12-hour shimmering blush in frisky — a shimmery coral blush
The colors are warm, bright and perfect for Spring and Summer! I have tried all of these products and have to say that I love them! The fact that tarte has natural, good for you cosmetics doesn’t negate the fact that their products are long-lasting and gorgeous!
The powder blush is shimmery, but not in a too-young way. I think it is subtle enough for forty-somethings (and above) like myself to rock! The duo of cream blush and liquid highlighter is perfect for face and body (shimmery shoulders, anyone?). The lip gloss is my new favorite. It might look bright in the tube, but it is subtly shiny on. And the cream eye shadow in the lovely green moss would be pretty on all eye colors.
To win, please leave a comment on my blog. I will choose a winner soon — on Friday March 30th — then I will announce a new giveaway! If warm colors are not for you, the next group of Spring cosmetics will have some cooler tones in it.
This giveaway is open for residents of the United States and Canada only. Good Luck!
I am excited to announce the winners of my Mally giveaway:
Christine
K. Elizabeth
Danette
Congrats ladies! I will email you soon and get your first and second color choices.
I will be having more giveaways, so if you didn’t win, stay tuned…
