Beauty & her Budget

 A few months ago, I wrote a post about a Tryazon party where I able to try this amazing brand of grass fed dairy  products, Truly. They have some  of the creamiest and most flavorful butters and cheeses that I have ever eaten! Well I had the blessing of hosting another Truly party, this time focused on holiday baking. For the party, I received a great party pack filled with goodies! Here’s an unboxing: During the party we used the adorable cookie cutters to make star gingerbread cookies & some incredibly scrumptious cheesecake brownies!   

 Best way to get restful sleep while up in a mountain cabin ? 🏔 Have some @megafood & cozy on up by the fireplace 🪵 . . Our MegaFood @tryazon party happened last week right before our trip and everyone was so excited for these supplements. This Herbal Sleep remedy is made with Valerian, Ashwaganda, Passion Flower & Hops. It’s made for those who have occasional sleeplessness to naturally get their body feeling rested and tension-free. 😴 . . Take it 1-2 hours before you’d like to sleep and just let your body fall into it’s natural rhythm of calm and rest. It’s meant to not just get you to sleep, but to sleep well. 🛌 . . . #herbalsleep #sleepwell #herbalsleepaid #restorativesleep #ashwaganda #valerian #passionflower #tryazon

  Over the past few years, I have really come to realize just how much work is involved in having pretty waves and curls in your hair. A curly look is not a "woke up like this" or "effortless" look, and it requires the right products! I was so excited when Tryazon posted about a new, CurlKeeper party hosting opportunity and was double excited when I got chosen as a host! If you are new to my page and have not heard of Tryazon before... here's the deal: it is one of the best sampling communities there is, where you get to apply for Parties and receive completely free products to review and share with friends and family. I have hosted several of these parties and I have come to find some of my favorite products through it (Examples: Organic India Tea - a.k.a. best tea ever & Silk'n Infinity - an affordable laser hair removal device that you can use at home!).

 Healthy Baking doesn't seem like a phrase that makes much sense. And when I first tried to think of it, I only thought of the most unappetizing recipes I could think of. BUT, Organic India is on a mission to make healthy conscious living a priority for everyone and that includes eating baked goods that benefit your body instead of harm it. That is why they have brought whole husk psyllium fiber to the US and made sure that it was high quality, and Certified Organic. Thanks to Tryazon, I was able to test three flavors of this fiber as part of a Healthy Baking party!  If you are new to my page and have not heard of Tryazon before... here's the deal: it is one of the best sampling communities there is, where you get to apply for Parties and receive completely free products to review and share with friends and family.

Just a few weeks ago I received an awesome package from Tryazon with some amazing products to test from Rituals Cosmetics. Rituals is "a unique luxury lifestyle brand focused on ancient eastern traditions for body and home". In September, Rituals launched on Sephora.com and is now available for purchase online! The Rituals brand celebrates traditions and rituals with products that smell incredible and feel luxurious. As part of the Tryabox, I received three products, a foaming shower gel, a daily body scrub, and a body cream. The specific line I received in this Tryabox was the Ritual of Sakura line, celebrating the Japanese tradition of honoring Cherry Blossom Trees. I absolutely love all the packaging of Rituals products because they are always very elegant and themed. After using all three for a few weeks already, I have written a quick review on each one: Rituals The Ritual of Sakura Body Cream - I am not usually a fan of lotions, mostly because I tend to feel very oily

  Triple the Fun because this weekend we had a TRIPLE Water Slide Party and it was exactly what we needed to destress from the day-to-day madness of life. I received this waterslide from Bestway , for free, through a community called Tryazon.  If you are new to my page and have not heard of Tryazon before... here's the deal: it is one of the best sampling communities there is, where you get to apply for Parties and receive completely free products to review and share with friends and family.

I was lucky enough to be one of 100 Tryazon members able to host a Spring Swim Party back in May a

 My latest Tryazon party was so yummy, it made us want to go live on a farm. Okay, maybe I am exaggerating, but it really did make us rethink how dairy products should taste. These products were so incredibly rich and creamy, our guests kept coming back for cheese even after the main food dishes were served. I received this party pack from Truly Grass Fed to try their grass-fed Cheese & Butter and share them with others. I decided to combine this party with a very special occasion, my grandmother's birthday. Due to covid, our family really had not been gathering with other people and we hadn't even met up as a family all together since February! It was such a nice gathering to have everyone together again for my grandmother and it was made extra special by the delicious food we served! Before I show pictures of the party, let me show you what was inside my party pack: 4 Free Item Coupons for Truly Grass Fed Cheddar Range 4 Free Item Coupons for Truly Grass Fed Butter Range

So last weekend we did something a bit "crazy". We decided to be one of those families that wears a mask all day long in the excruciating sun just so we could visit Mickey Mouse. Just to give you a bit of history, we are BIG Disney fans in my house. We are annual pass holders, DVC members, and mostly just lovers of all things Disney. There's something magical about just being on Disney property. It's as if the magic is in the air and you can't stay angry or sad for more than a few minutes before you crack a smile. Anyways, back to our covid adventure. When the parks first opened we were still very unsure of how it  would look like and whether it would even be worth going to. So I started paying close attention to my favorite Disney bloggers, specifically Serena (@livingbydisney), and seeing how they were experiencing the parks. For the most part, I heard very similar stories. They said they felt safe, the crowds were very minimal and any groups in the park could b

Telestrations, Upside Drawn Game Nights are a big deal at my house! This is something that has both brought our family & friends together as well as torn us apart (all in good fun of course). Thanks to Tryazon I was able to add a new game to our collection. It's a revamp of a game called Telestrations, which I had never actually played or heard of before this party.  If you are new to my page and have not heard of Tryazon before... here's the deal: it is one of the best sampling communities there is, where you get to apply for Parties and receive completely free products to review and share with friends and family.

Do you love baking? What about Fall? I feel like (mostly thanks to Hallmark) you can't have a real Fall without some baking!! I live in sunny South Florida, so there are no falling leaves, there's no "cooler"weather, none of the usual things that the rest of the States would consider as signs of a fall season. But that doesn't stop me from finding a way to make it fall here, and the way I do that in my home is bringing on the baking! Lots of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, and mostly pumpkin everything!  So what happens when you enter the fall season trying to cut back on all that processed sugar and live a healthier lifestyle? Does that mean you need to cut out the baking? Not at all! There are SO many new alternatives now to make baked goods healthy, low carb, no sugar, and guilt free! Whether it is almond or coconut flour substitutes for flour, or sugar free chocolate chips, you can swap out almost everything without compromising flavor!  One of the brands that c

If you are anything like me (and I happen to think I am semi-normal), than you probably have one to many boxes or containers to store supplies. Whether they are office supplies, crafting supplies, beauty supplies, we sometimes have so much that it's hard to keep it organized. When I applied for this new Tryazon party, I was super excited because the party title was "ELIMINATE THE CLUTTER" and that was exactly what I needed. I needed storage solutions that were organized, effective, and forced me to just keep the good stuff.  I received several incredibly convenient products:  3 Stackable Caddy Organizers  • Includes white frame and three clear containers. Great for on-the-go storage needs. Removable storage containers feature hinged, snap-tight lids. Lids can be removed for easier-access to supplies.  Wheel Base for Organizers  • Roll your stacked caddies wherever you need them by snapping on the Caddy Wheel Base.  Mounting Bar for hanging (interlocking storage organizer

Hi friends 👋🏻 Tryazon hooked it up once again! For those viewing my page for the first time here’s a quick overview of what Tryazon is: Tryazon is a review program that connects its members with quality brands to  test out great products, for FREE, either by giving you a complimentary product to test & review, or sometimes giving you a whole party's worth of products to not just test but SHARE with friends and family so you can review it together with different perspectives.   To learn more, watch this short  video  and then go sign up & start applying for hosting opportunities  (Sign up here)  ! 📝 The host opportunity I was selected for this time was the Silk’n Titan Anti-Aging At Home Treatment Device. If you have been following me for a little while now, or read a few of my previous blog posts, you may remember that I recently did another party with this same brand, Silk'n. These professional scientists and engineers brought the same technologies used in

I promise, I am not talking about you! I'm only talking about all those creepy crawly pests that are constantly lurking and waiting for their chance to infest all that is good. Thankfully, I have some help keeping those pests away this summer thanks to Earth Kind. According to its website, EarthKind is a naturally effective pest control solution that repels pests from infested areas and prevents them from coming back. To learn more about their company watch this video: I love that these products don't actually kill or poison pests, just repel them. Their mission, "preserve the good and prevent the rests" is something worth standing by and I am so glad I was introduced to this company through Tryazon. I received a party pack from Tryazon that brought not just products for me to test but also a few Stay Away Spider repellent packs to share with friends/family. Take a look at my video to see what was in the party pack: We held a pool party just last week whe

SPRING HAS ARRIVED! Of course, it looks very different than usual. Instead of lots of pool parties, hangouts, and BBQ's...we are all stuck at home. Yea, it kinda sucks, BUT there is still a lot of good coming from all of this! We are getting to spend more time working on ourselves, our relationships, and honestly I think I have become way closer to my friends now that the only way to stay connected is having conversations and video calls! No more hanging out in the same room while everyone is on their phones. Now we are on our phones, hanging out and talking to each other. Anyways, one of the things I had been really looking forward to this Spring was the chance to host this Bestway Spring Swim Party through the Tryazon program...
