Yes To Cucumbers Travel Towelettes Review!

Yes To always has giveaways! One of their more recent giveaways was their Mighty (Big) Mini Giveaway. I've entered countless giveaways and never did win, always so sad =(. They say they email winners, so when I didn't receive an email for this giveaway, I figured I didn't win this one either. But when I got home on Monday, I checked the mail and there was a package for me. I wasn't sure what it was, as I ripped it open I saw YTCU travel towelettes! Along with a card saying "Congratulations!". I was very excited! I stuck these babies in my purse and I love them! I've, of course, used the YTCU towelettes before, but I've never had the travel ones. There are 10 in a pack. Very handy in my bag! You never know when you may need one. I usually use oil blotting sheets on the go, but I use one of my organic Yes To towelette's everyday. I suggest/recommend these to people who are on the go, but could use a pick me up. They make me feel so refreshed! Not to mention any oil on my face gets wiped away and my face is left smooth and hydrated.

Avon Brush Review!

A few months ago I was really interested in a brush I saw in an Avon book. It was just a regular brush, but it had this removable piece that was supposed to help pull all the loose hair it collected out. I went ahead and ordered it since it was like $7. I was very disappointed when I got it. I never use it and never will! It's so HARD! There is no give at all, no cushion. It's horrible. I tried it once and it hurt my head. I barely put any pressure. Horrible horrible brush! If you see it in an Avon book, avoid it! It sounds better than it is.

Hallmark Kitten Bowl Review!

Hallmark had a Kitten Bowl on Superbowl Sunday. I finally got around to watching the 3 hour event last night. It was the most adorable thing in the world! Granted I did start to get a little bored, but who doesn't love watching cute little baby kitties playing with toys and each other. When they got a toy into the end zone, it counted as a touchdown. They had 4 teams. The first 2 teams faced off, then the second 2 teams. Each of the winners then faced off for the championship. It was adorable. I really liked the ref too, he was cracking me up! The kittens were brought in from a no kill shelter. They said they do Kitten Bowls all over and people attend and then adopt the kittens afterwards. So sweet! They had trivia with celebrities too. For instance, I knew that male cats were called Tom Cats, but I never knew female cats were called Molly Cats. How cute! I also didn't know that tabby cats and black cats have the hardest time getting adopted in shelters. Since they're so "ordinary". The funny thing about that is, we adopted kittens from a stray cat. We feed the strays in the area. She had her kittens elsewhere, but ended up moving them into our backyard. Before winter started, we moved them into the basement. Since we have another cat that we know for sure doesn't have feline leukemia. It's hard to know if strays have it or not since they live outside. So after a few months we got some money together and took the little boy to be fixed and tested. He came back negative! Friday (if weather permits) we're supposed to be taking the little girl to get fixed and tested as well. We already moved them into the house. Back to my point though! The little boy is a black tuxedo cat and the little girl is a tabby. I think they're absolutely adorable! They may be doing another Kitten Bowl on TV next year!

Amazon Silicone Case Deals Review!

I already bought like 8 cases from Amazon.com since they're dirt cheap! All the silicone cases I have were $1.25 and the gel flex case I have was a little over $6. So last night I was browsing again, just to see if there were anymore cheap silicone ones with colors I don't have. So I ordered a purple one for $1.25. And there was also this awesome deal where you could get 2 silicone cases (I ordered blue and white) and 3 screen protectors for $4.99! All together after shipping it only cost me $12.18! Can't beat that! It says it should ship out today and be here Friday! I'm in the midwest though, and we're having a snow storm as we speak. So not sure if they'll be delivered on time or not. *Fingers crossed!*. I adore silicone cases since they fit my Blackberry Curve perfectly! Not to mention they protect your phone. I also love that they're one piece instead of 2 pieces you have to put together around your phone. Those are SO HARD to get back off! Silicone ones you just slide right off/on. I highly recommend them. And yeah, 11 cases seems ridiculous, I know lol. But again, they're dirt cheap! Not to mention I love having options and I change my case every few days. Sometimes weekly.

Yes To Grapefruit Towelettes/Body Scrub Review!

I mostly wanted to let you guys know what an AMAZING deal I found at Target! I always hit the natural aisle, whether I need something or not. It's always worth a look, in my opinion. Especially since sometimes they have sales and deals! So as I was looking, I looked up where the YTG towelettes are and I saw a YTG body scrub attached to it! I had to do a double take. It was the last one too! So I grabbed it to get a better look at it. You pay the $5.99 for the towelettes and get the scrub worth $9.99 for FREE! I had to snag that deal! I'm not sure how long this deal is going on, or even if it is anymore, but you have to check it out if you're at Target. I know $5.99 for 25 towelettes is a lot, I'm on a budget, so I really do know that. But organic is worth the extra money, in my opinion. Plus really you're paying $5.99 and getting almost $16 worth of products! So worth it! I haven't actually tried the scrub yet (I'm currently using my YTG body wash). I'll do a separate review on that when I try it! But again, you have to check out the natural aisle at Target and see if the deal is still going on! 
I've done a review on the towelettes before, they are WONDERFUL! They smell amazing and these ones are exfoliating. They have little, almost pillow looking, little squares all over it to help exfoliate. I love how my skin feels so refreshed, soft, and hydrated after using them. I adore everything I've tried from the Yes To line. Especially the towelettes!

Yes To Grapefruit Rejuvenating Body Wash Review!

These first came out last year. I was at Target checking out the natural aisle. I saw all the new body washes Yes To had. So I got them all lol. I tried the YTCU first. This is the second one I've tried. I absolutely love it! The scent is fantastic! It's a thin consistency, but it lathers up very very well! I do have a problem with the caps, so I always twist them off and slowly pour some on my loofah. It doubles as a bubble bath too, which explains its consistency. I'm a shower person, so I just use it as my body wash. It leaves my skin feeling beautiful and there is no residue. I feel super clean! It's also 95% natural, which I love! I was fortunate enough to get a coupon for $3 off any of their body washes. I think I'll use it to try the Yes To Blueberries. I haven't bought that one just because it has lavender in it and I hate lavender! But I'm curious how my skin will feel with it. I think I can get over the scent to see what kind of benefits it brings to my skin. I highly recommend these washes to any and everyone!

*I got mine at Target for $8.99. You get a 16.9 oz bottle.

Up & Up Bath Tissue Review!

For the longest time we were Charmin people. One day, a long time ago, I was shopping at Target and needed to pick up some toilet paper. As I'm looking at all the brands I see the Up & Up store brand. It was only $12 for 24 double rolls. So I got it. I think this toilet paper is just as good as Charmin. The Up & Up double roll is twice the size of a Charmin roll. It's also strong, yet gentle. I use it for my make up also. I think this toilet paper is awesome. I also got my mom to switch to it! Great price and great quality. Don't let the price fool you!
