Neutrogena Ultra Light Cleansing Oil!

Hello readers! I have not blogged in a while! I recently moved and had a bunch of other unexpected things pop up and have not had the time. I want to get back to blogging and reviewing now! Lucky for me and you, Crowdtap sent me a new product for free to try and review! Neutrogena Ultra Light Cleansing Oil!

This light cleansing oil is for removing dirt, oil and waterproof make up! I have not tried with make up yet, but plan too! I always have the hardest time removing my waterproof eye make up. I do have oily skin though, and I put this cleanser to the test. Check out my before photo.

My face is very oily, especially in my "T-Zone"; forehead and nose.

Here's a photo of me using the product. I've never used an oil cleanser before and was really skeptical about it. It was runny and seemed odd to clean my face with an oil when oil was part of the problem.

It's super easy to use. You just put the oil on with dry clean hands, onto your dry face. Then add a little water and scrub it around. Then wash off with warm water. It came off pretty easily, which was another concern. I thought the oil would be hard to get off, but it wasn't! My face looked really nice afterwards and was really, really soft! I can't stop feeling it!

I honestly don't think I've met a Neutrogena product that I haven't liked before! This ultra light cleansing oil is no exception! I will keep using this!

Cesar Home Delights Dog Food Sampled by my Boston Terrier

I'm part of the Cesar Pack Crowd on Crowdtap and was selected to have my dogs try out Cesar Home Delights wet dog food for free.

I had my 11 year old Boston Terrier Dita Von Paws try the food out.

Dita is normally fed dry food, so she was already excited to have this special treat of wet dog food. We were sent three different flavors of Cesar Home Delights. The flavors we were sent were Pot Roast, Beef Stew and Slow Cooked Chicken with Vegetables. I feel like the chicken is a flavor we would buy again. It looks and smells the most appealing and the chicken seemed to be easiest on her tummy. The first night I cooked chicken and corn for the family and gave Dita her Cesar Home Delights meal in chicken to match!

Dita really seemed to enjoy these meals and the portion size seemed to be about right. For an older dog that is not used to wet food I would not feed them to her very often because it gave her loose stool and bad gas. For a special treat, they worked great and I know she would love to have them again. They seem healthy and they are a great price. Easy to open containers and easy to recycle as well!

Folgers Iced Cafe Coffee Concentrates

I'm a part of the Folgers Fans panel on Crowdtap and was selected to try and review Folgers Iced Cafe Coffee Concentrates for my honest review. They sent me four fantastic flavors! The flavors are Original Latte, Caramel Macchiato, Vanilla Latte and Hazelnut Latte.

These bottles are small, just 1.62 FL OZ., but they have up to 12 servings worth of concentrate in each bottle! Just 10 calories per serving. Of course, you need to take in account the milk that you use. That's right, all you have to do is add a few squirts of this concentrate to a glass of milk! It recommmends two squirts per 8 OZ. cup, but you can do more or less depending on personal taste.

The ingredients in the bottle are super minimal! Just concentrated coffee, water, natural and artificial flavor, ground coffee and Sucralose. This product does not have to be refridgerated! Would be easy to take on the go and would save space put in your cupboard.

Folgers Iced Cafe Coffee Concentrate is super easy to use and very tasty! Pour your milk, Squirt the concentrate in, Stir it, add Ice and enjoy! Tastes like something you could buy at any coffee shop. For an entire container with 12 servings, you're only paying as much as a single glass you would've bought out! The only downside for me is they only come with caffiene and I prefer caffiene free coffee.

Old Factory Hand Poured Soy Wax Candles Review

I was selected to try Old Factory Candles to try out for free, and give my honest review for. I had never heard of this brand of candle before and have not purchased a candle in quite some time, so I was excited to try them out. These candles are scented natural soy wax candles, with cotton wicks and made with premium fragrance oils. The candles come in a sturdy attractive box, are made in the USA and are hand poured!

I was able to select any scent out of the available scents they offered, and I decided to go with their Citrus Grove three pack. This pack comes with Lemongrass, Orange Zest and Key Lime. I thought it'd be a perfect choice for the warmer months!

They off a free E-book on Aromatherapy that they e-mail to you upon request! Check it out! AROMATHERAPY E BOOK!

The candles have a light fragrance and don't seem to fill a large room individually, when you walk close to them burning you can smell them however. I think these would be a great candle for a bathroom or a bedroom. Sometimes it is nice to have a scented item that is not overwhelming. The candles are all white and in nice glass jars with tasteful labels.

Each candle is 4 oz. each and seem to have a lot of burn life in them. They also burn very evenly which is important for not only the look of the candle, but the longevity of it.

These candles are a bit pricey, normally $40.00 for a set of 3. They are currently on sale on Amazon for $27.97 and ship free with an Amazon Prime Account. Check them out here on Amazon for more information or to purchase them. Also feel free to check out their website for more information! Old Factory Candles Website!

Johnsonville Grillers - Bacon & Cheddar Pork Burgers!

My favorite kind of product to sample and review! Food! Thanks to Crowdtap, I was selected to review Johnsonville Grillers pork burgers! They have many flavors to choose from, but when I saw Bacon & Cheddar I knew that this was the flavor for me!

Johnsonville Grillers are frozen pork patties. They come in a 6 pack and are just over $5.50 a box from Walmart. A pretty good deal in my opinion. I wasn't sure what to expect from these when I was selected, but I was very excited to find out! We decided to do a little family barbeque with my husband, son, mother in law and I.

The first thing we noticed about these Johsonville Grillers is that they grill up a lot quicker than your traditional beef patty does! My corn wasn't even done being chucked (only 4 ears) and they were telling me to hurry up and get some plates!

They looked and smelled great! The best part is they already had bacon and cheddar in them, so I didn't have to worry about slicing up cheese or cooking bacon. Which is also a money saver with the bacon! I had lettuce and tomatoes ready to go, and condiments. I forgot to get out the pickles and cut up my red onion - but honestly the burgers were so good it didn't matter in the end!

The moment of truth. My turn to bite into my burger.

It looked good, smelled great, and it was a decent sized burger!

The color is a bit different than your normal burger because it is pork. The texture is pretty good and it is a hearty patty. It was very juicy and it had a mild bacon and cheddar taste, but enough to know it was there. I was happy that it was not a weird synthetic taste like some things get. I would buy these burgers again, and probably will for my summer cook outs. They are only available at one store in my area so far but since they are frozen they are easy to buy in bulk and stock up on! Check out this handy product locater! Find Johnsonville Grillers HERE!

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Boosters Facial Cleanser

Today I tried out the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Boosters Facial Cleanser that Crowdtap sent to me to try for free for my review.

The bottle and color of the cleanser is pleasant, and the size looks like it will last quite a while. The smell of the face wash is very light and you have to try to smell it. The odor is a bit like a antiseptic soapy smell. The wash is a bit more liquid than I expected, but not so much that it will slide off of your hand or face. It foams easy and feels nice on the skin.

After washing the face wash off, when my face was still damp, it felt a bit sticky. After I dried my face off all the way though, it left my face feeling really soft. I like that this cleanser didn't seem to dry my face out at all. I feel very clean.

I will continue to use this oil free face wash and see how my face feels.

CareFree Acti-Fresh Body Shape Liners (COUPON LINK!)

I was chosen by Influenster to receive a free 20 pack of CareFree Acti-Fresh body shape regular pantiliners.

These are unscented, which I most prefer, though they do have an added odor control ingredient; that does have a light smell to it in my opinion. It says it has an 8 hour odor control system.

Included in my box was a 50 cent off coupon, and I'm happy to say that this is printable from their website! And the best part is, with 50 cents off any CareFree product, this makes the 20 count pack of pantiliners only 44 cents at Walmart!!!! Click HERE for the coupon.

These liners are thin enough to put in your pocket or wallet. They have a very feminine design so they are unmistakeably feminine products. The liners aren't very long, and they are comfortable for everyday wear. I did think that they made great added protection while using a tampon.

At less than a dollar a pack, these are a good deal and are a quality product. Two thumbs up.
