Nutra Nail Review

I have always had problem nails to where they wouldn't grow and when they did grow they would usually break at a certain point so I could never get them to all grow evenly. I had a friend recommend nutra nail and since I have never tried it I decided to give it a go. I went to my local Walgreens and picked up the nutra nail growth serum with green tea and acai berry antioxidants. It's a serum that you put on your nails but it's something you either rub in or allow it to sink into your nails so it was a little different than what I am used to as far as growth serums go. I applied it and my nails just soaked up this serum and any leftover I rubbed in to my nail and cuticle. Nutra nail advertises that you will have longer and stronger nails within 5 days of using it.

The directions tell you to use it twice a day so I did exactly as the directions stated. I used it in the morning after my shower and in the evening right before bed. Within three days of using the product I could see some growth and by the end of the fifth day I saw a dramatic difference in the way my nails looked and felt. They are definitely longer and stronger :) I am very happy with this product because it has done a world of good with my hard to grow nails. I have also noticed that my nail tips are whiter and the pinks in my nails look healthier so that is an added benefit. I have now been using nutra nail growth serum for a little over three weeks and I have nice nails that are longer and stronger. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who has nails that are hard to grow. I will never be without this product! Thank you Nutra Nails you are my lifesaver :)

My Scentsy Review

I am in love with my scentsy and I truly didn't think that I would love it this much , that is until I got one and now I am addicted! I know that this post is out of content to what my blog is about but I just can't help raving about scentsy. 


I have been contemplating on spending the money for a scentsy warmer and some scents to try it out but I just couldn't help thinking "But what if I hate it" type of feeling so it took me four months to finally break down and spend the money and boy am I glad I did. 


I love making my home smell good and I have always been a big fan of everything from candles, room sprays to plug ins by glade. But through friends and youtube I found that every person I spoke with or watched on youtube reviews that scentsy was a wonderful investment. So the week before last I ordered a scentsy warmer and three scents. 


The warmer I purchased is very cute (it's a nice pink with cute flower designs all over it). I believe mine is a full size warmer if I am not mistaken. I chose three different scents which are called Happy Birthday, Lemon Coconut Chiffon and Sugar Cookie. I am in love with all three scents although I feel that the sugar cookie is more for the Fall and Winter months. All three scents smell wonderful and even my fiance who HATES scented candles and sprays LOVES these scentsy fragrances. 


The scents come in brick form and all you have to do is break one or two off and melt in your warmer. I use two little blocks and I am finding it is lasting all week long and I have my warmer on for several hours everyday of the week. When I want to change scents I just melt the one I have and then put it back in the plastic pack and it re-solidifies and I can use it again so I feel that I am not wasting it. 


I plan on ordering more scents for each season because that is how much I love it! They also sell different hand creams, body lotions, room sprays in the same scents as the soy wax. I encourage everyone to try out scentsy because it really is wonderful and if you love different scents to make your home smell pretty then you will LOVE scentsy. I don't sell scentsy so they did not pay me to do this review. I bought everything pictured below and this is my honest review on this wonderful product. If you want to order your own go to www.scentsy.com :)

Target Summer Bag of Freebies 2012!

Well I finally got in on the fun with this freebie from Target and I must say that I am completely impressed. I have never gotten in on time with any of Target's free sample bags so when I finally got this one I was excited. Well it's here (it actually came in the mail last Friday). The samples I got in the bag are: 


*Tresemme split ends remedy shampoo (deluxe sample)
*Tresemme split ends remedy conditioner (deluxe sample)
* Aveeno Living color shampoo (sample packet)
* Aveeno Living color conditioner (sample packet) 
* Garnier Fructis color remedy shampoo (sample packet) 
* Garnier Fructis color remedy conditioner (sample packet) 
* Neutrogena Ultra Sheer sun block (deluxe sample) 
* Revlon color burst lip butter in the color peach parfait (small sample) 
* Target's coupon book with several coupons 
* Beautiful blue makeup bag (very cute) 


I have to say that this is the BEST freebie of samples I have ever gotten and I am the queen of getting free samples lol. I am always looking for free samples so I can try new products before I actually invest in buying the full size product. I have wasted a lot of money in the past with buying full size products only to hate the product and I end up either throwing the product away or giving it a way and in this tight economy I decided that I needed to change that. Out of all these samples I have only tried the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer sunblock and in fact I own the full size product because I love it so much. So this deluxe sample will be put to good use when I go on vacation this summer. The other products I am currently trying out and so far I love the Revlon lip butter and the Aveeno shampoo and conditioner. The rest of the samples I have stashed away in my sample box for later use :) 


So did any of you get a chance to get the Summer Target sample bag? Let me know what you think of all the freebies by commenting. I love to hear other's opinions so I am looking forward to hearing from everyone.


Here is my Target bag and it's contents: 

 I hear that Target will be giving away some Fall Target sample bags so I am looking forward to trying to get that bag as well. Happy Sampling everyone!!
