    Star Lash Giveaway!

    Star Lash Studio Giveaway

    A few years ago I was able to review some lash extension serum, and it was nice. If you are looking for longer and fuller lashes this is a great way to get them. 

    Star Lash Studio and Spa uses Xtreme Lashes products ONLY. They are also the ONLY certified Xtreme Lashes salon located in Utah (this can be verified right on the Xtreme Lashes website here). Each and every one of their lashes experts have to be certified to use this product and believe me, this the best product money can buy!

    Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are your ultimate answer for longer, thicker, more beautiful-looking eyelashes. Developed to mimic your natural eyelashes, each Xtreme Lashes Eyelash Extension is individually applied to a single eyelash, resulting in a gorgeous, natural appearance. Using a proprietary adhesive, Xtreme Lashes Eyelash Extensions are only applied by a trained and certified Xtreme Lashes® Lash Stylist. Xtreme Lashes Eyelash Extensions are not traditional false eyelashes, eyelash flares or implants. Safe and comfortable to wear, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are never applied directly to your skin or eyelid. With routine touchups every two to four weeks, you can have amazing eyelashes indefinitely.

    You can truly have longer, fuller, and more bold lashes in no time! We have a friend that receives compliments on her lashes all the time. People truly think her eyelashes are REAL and are in total shock when she tells them they are extensions! If you want to try Star Lash Studio and Spa, you can give them a call at 801-858-0040 and ask for Jenny (she is the owner and she rocks at apply lashes). Plus right now they have a special going on so make sure you head to their Facebook Page to snag a coupon to save $20 off your new set of extensions! SCORE!

    Now onto the Giveaway…

    alernaVites Kids Review!

     
     
    Screen-Shot-2015-10-11-at-3.58.57-PM
     
     
    I received these alternaVites free for my kids to try. I am always looking for healthier alternatives to our every day vitamins that have tons of sugars.  I try to avoid giving my kids anything with sugar. So a long time ago I stopped giving my kids gummy vitamins that we covered in sugar. When I discovered alternaVites, we were instantly in love with our new vitamins. They are delicious and fun to eat. They are also sugar free and they don’t have any types of artificial sweeteners. I have to admit, that I often take these multi vitamins instead of my adult vitamins. I like that thy can be added to foods, and drinks. 

    alternaVites makes a delicious multi vitamin that your children will love. Your kids can pour them into their mouth or you can mix them into a smoothie or yogurt.

    Now alternaVites also offers supplements. In addition to taking a delicious multivitamin, you can be sure your child is getting their daily dose of Vitamin D and Calcium.
     
    alternaVites-Collage
     
    Vitamin D is incredibly important as it can help to support strong bones, teeth and immune function as well as to help absorb calcium in the body. It is known as “the sunshine vitamin” because our bodies produce vitamin D naturally through direct exposure to sunlight. Since many of us are now shielding ourselves from the sun, and Vitamin D can be hard to get from food sources alone, alternaVites Kids Vitamin D can be a great source. Specially formulated for children 4 and older, this product contains 500IU in a delicious Tutti Frutti Smoothie flavor. alternaVites Kids Vitamin D powder can be poured on the tongue where it melts in the mouth (think pixie stick) or mixed into foods or drinks. In addition to the many other great attributes listed below, this formula is also very unique as it is free of all animal products or by-products making it one of the only Vitamin D products that is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans alike. Calcium is incredibly important for children, pre-teens and adolescents as it can help support strong bones and teeth as they develop and grow. It is surprising to note that, even though there are so many delicious foods that provide a great source of Calcium, the majority of girls and boys over 9 years of age do not consume enough of it**. alternaVites Kids Calcium is a wonderful source to help supplement your child’s diet with our delicious melt-in-your-mouth powder form. This formula not only contains 200mg of Calcium, but it also includes 500IU of Vitamin D and 100mg of Magnesium. Together, these nutrients can work to help promote optimal absorption. Specifically formulated for children ages 4 and older, alternaVites Kids powder can be poured on the tongue where it melts in the mouth (think pixie stick) or mixed into foods or drinks. The yummy Carnival Swirl taste made from natural flavors will have your child excited about something that is nutritious and delicious.

    • Gluten Free
    • No artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors or preservatives

    Crib Mattress Giveaway!!!

     

    http://www.ratsandmore.com/2015/11/newton-crib-mattress-giveaway-arv-295.html

    It’s been awhile since I shared a giveaway with my wonderful readers! I am honored to share this Newton Crib Mattress Giveaway!

     
     
     Welcome to the Newton Crib Mattress Giveaway! 
     
    A huge thank you to the sponsor of this giveaway: Newton Rest.
     
     
    And a big thank you, to all of the amazing co-hosts:  
     
    When it comes to baby, it’s all about the best. You want to make sure you have the best products out there, for the safety, and comfort of your baby.  That is where Newton Rest comes in.
     
    See, Newton Rest doesn’t have your typical crib mattress. 
     

     

    The crib mattress has an added feature. This mattress, is a  breathable mattress. That’s right – Newton Rest crib mattress is a mattress that babies can breath right through. Which reduces the risk of suffocation, and SIDS. According to an independent, blind, scientific study, with other non-breathable crib mattresses, the other non-breathable mattress increased suffocation risk by 17 percent!  
     

     

    Also because of the breathable feature, Newton’s crib mattress reduces overheating, and reduces the chance of bacterial and fungal infections – Because the Newton Crib Mattress is 100% washable. That’s right! You can actually remove the cover, and then put the core of the mattress directly into the shower or tub, to wash it. This is the best possible way to remove potential, harmful bacteria. 
     
    When it comes to the safety of baby – That’s where to splurge a little extra. With as much time as your baby will spend in his/her crib, it’s really a place to make sure you have the best, of the best. And Newton Rest has just that. 
     
    The Giveaway!
    Newton Rest is generously sponsoring a crib mattress giveaway! 1 lucky winner will receive a Newton Rest, crib mattress of there own, valued at $295! Entering to win is super easy, with the GiveawayTools form, below:
