My skin journal part II




Well, I have now been using the Burt's Bees hydration line (given to me, FREE, courtesy of Bzzagent) for two weeks and I am really happy. This has been such a dry week in Colorado and my skin is acting like it is the middle of June! It is fresh and dewy looking and my makeup is not caking to my face like it usually does. What impresses me the most, is that this is such an easy line to use. There aren't 5 different products and waiting in between each one to apply. I simply wash with the amazing facial cleanser and then apply a night cream or a day moisturizer depending on what time of day it is. I am loving how wonderful my skin feels too. Nobody mentions how awful dry skin feels - they just notice how it looks. I hate that tight awful feeling when I smile. But that has faded remarkably in the past two weeks and I am really happy. Here is my newest picture to show how great my skin is doing! It looks younger and so much healthier.

My journal with Burt's Bees Intense Hydration line




Well, I started using this line given to me to sample courtesy of bzzagent for free about two weeks ago and I am late posting this journal, but here is what wrote and how it is going... Just starting this hydration line and so excited to maybe see these flakes of skin disappear. Here is my first picture before using any of the line and it's kinda hard to see my skin but my chin always has little flakes of skin that become even more prominent and nasty when I put makeup on. Sometimes I try leaving my makeup off that part of my face to hide my problem. But that just feels odd. So here's to hoping this journey is a good one.

SmartFoods




This is by far my favorite campaign yet that I have been accepted to promote for BzzAgent! I LOVE chips and I LOVE snacks! So I was delighted when I was offered this campaign. True to what I expected, these snacks are fantastic. And guilt free and actually good for you! I could go on and on. It is so rare to find a snack that has such admirable qualities. The most important aspect of any snack is the taste - if I am going to crave something, it has to have lots of flavor and be something I want to keep coming back to over and over. I think honestly, this is more important than any healthy aspect whatsoever. If I want a snack, it needs to taste great! So these chips pass that first test. But what makes them better than any other snack is that are indeed healthy. They are made with real herbs and spices to create unique tastes without as much sodium as some chips, and they are all natural and very light so that they are easier on the calories too. I think they were roughly 40 to 50 calories less per serving than most chips. That is huge! Almost 1/3 of the calories have been slashed from these chips.


The other thing that really impressed me was the fact that they have fiber! I don't know that many chips that have a reasonably high percentage of daily fiber in their chip. Since that is something that we all could use more of, how fantastic to be able to get a serving of fiber when snacking. There are even some vitamins and minerals in these chips! Win and win!


I am very impressed and would highly recommend this chip to anyone who enjoys snacking and even more importantly, trying to snack in a healthy way. These are tasty and lower in calories and fat than most chips. I thoroughly enjoyed this campaign and know you will enjoy this snack if you give it a try. Here is a picture of my husband enjoying his healthy munchies.
