Burt's Bees Sensitive Daily Moisturizing Cream

I received a full size sample of the Burt's Bees Natural Skin Solution Sensitive Daily Moisturizing Cream for being a BzzAgent. I used it twice daily for a few weeks.  Usually I have really really dry skin around my nose and chin, which gets much worse in the winter, lets just say I was pleasantly surprised with this moisturizer. Retails for 15.00

Pros:
  • No fragrance! None what so ever. Its the best. Sometimes I have a really hard time trying out a product when the fragrance turns me off, so this was the easiest way to not only avoid any skin irritation from the fragrance, but it kept me wanting to use it.
  • It really kept my skin moist all day. I would put it on in the morning before my make up and I was actually able to use powder and not have to use Mac Fix+ to take away any exaggeration of my dry skin. The moisturizer was very light and I was really surprised that it worked so well.


Cons: 
  • None that I can think of right now :)

Burt's Bees Sensitive Facial Cleanser

I received a full size sample of the Burt's Bees Natural Skin Solution Sensitive Face Cleanser from being a BzzAgent. I used it daily for a few weeks.  I usually stick to their lip balm (who doesn't love Burt's Bees lip balm!?!?), so I was super excited to try the facial cleanser. Its a white thick cream that isn't runny.  Retails for 10.00

Pros:
  • No fragrance! I loved this!!! Usually I get turned off really quickly to any type of cleanser that has some type of fragrance, mostly because it sticks on my face and I feel like I can't really wear my perfume. 
  • Didn't dry my skin out. I have tried so many other facial cleansers and they leave my skin really dry, which gets much worse in the winter. Burt's Bees definitely didn't leave my skin overly dry.
  • Light weight
  • It removed all of my make up, including waterproof mascara! Super impressed with that.


Cons: 
  • Can't think of any. Will absolutely be buying this when it runs out.

Doggy Fashion


So about two weeks ago I rescued a chihuahua from a local shelter. His name is Chiquito and he is absolutely adorable. He is already showing signs of loving fashion. I snapped a picture of him wearing his new Juicy Couture doggy track suit.

You Can't Fake Fashion

If you ever shopped for designer bags/shoes/accessories on ebay, then you are definitely aware of how many fakes there are out there.  Over the years ebay has been more active about pulling auctions that are for counterfeit items.  Now eBay and Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) are launching a new campaign called "You Can't Fake Fashion."  50 exclusive totes were made available on the eBay store Fashion Vault.  Designers such as Coach, Betsy Johnson, Foley + Corinna, Calvin Klein, and Judith Leiber.  The designers were asked to take a bag and make it original.

The best part, was that I knew who designed most of the bags just by looking at their signature additions.  Coach had a turnlock, Betsy Johnson made theirs LOUD and colorful with buttons and pins, Anna Sui's had lace and a blue bow, Lily Pulitzer's had bright flowers, Tommy Hilfiger added a preppy nautical touch with a rope for the shoulder strap, and Stuart Weitzman's bag had sketches of shoes on it (and their shoes are TDF!).

They were all priced at a reasonable 150.00 and sold out ridiculously quickly.  Good news is that the regular You Can't Fake Fashion tote is still available for 35.00.
