Gourmet Gift Baskets Review & Giveaway!

My goodness Easter flew by so quickly! I was lucky enough to get to review a Classic Easter Bunny Basket from Gourmet Gift Baskets in time for Easter. I got it in the mail super quick- it just happened that a few days later my water broke and  didnt really have any time to enjoy it until now. It is so cute and pretty perfect. Its not too big and not too small. Plus the bunny that was inside is in the cute side as well.

 

Here's what was inside:

Super cute Easter bunny

Dots

Twizzlers

Gourmet Jelly Beans

Nerds

A chocolate rabbit (an Easter basket standard!)

M&Ms and 

some blue Peeps.

My husband and I were pretty pleased with everything inside- though neither of us are fans of Peeps. I think were the only two people in the world who arent fans.. not even of the chocolate covered ones. My favorite was definitely the Dots. I love me some Dots!

Over all I was very pleased with the basket. It had just enough stuff inside and it wasnt all too too Easter'y. Which I think is good for most people since not everyone loves Easter candy specifically. Now that I know about them I think I will definitely be using them in the future. Gourmet Gift Baskets have a T O N of different baskets for everyone. I like that they have baskets that offer fruit and organic produce. They also have military baskets to send overseas to our awesome guys and gals over there. I will totally be using them in the future for all my far away gift needs. :)

TheraBreath Review & Giveaway

About TheraBreath: TheraBreath is a revolutionary premium oral care system created by Doctor Harold Katz at the California Breath Clinics. The exclusive, original formula went on the market in 1994 and has been used by over 1,000,000 people world wide to solve the problems of bad breath and unpleasant mouth taste. In that time, our original formula has gone through dozens of refinements, making it the most complete and effective solution to the embarrassing personal problem of halitosis. Continuing his pioneering research, Dr Katz expanded on the original TheraBreath Toothpaste and Oral Rinse products to address other problem areas in personal care. TheraBreath now manufactures very popular products for teeth whitening, the clearing of tonsil stones, premium periodontal therapy products, specialty chewing gums, and even bad breath treatment systems for pets!Some of you may or may not know that I'm a teeth person. I like good clean, white teeth. Its the first thing I notice about people when I see them. Ive been using TheraBreath toothpaste and mouthwash for about a week now. I wanted to give it a chance. 

My first thought is that I ABSOLUTELY love the packaging. I love the vintage'y/ retro fonts and the colors. If I were to see it in a store it would definitely catch my eye.

Upon using the toothpaste for the first time my mouth definitely didnt like the fact that in the end I didnt have the minty fresh feeling so it definitely took some getting used to. It was still fresh feeling though. I didnt miss the "minty" taste much but like I said, definitely takes some getting used to.

How To Use This Product
Place a bead of TheraBreath toothpaste on your toothbrush and brush thoroughly. Be sure to brush all over - the inside of your cheeks, roof of your mouth, and back of your tongue.
 



I was able to try the TheraBreath mouthwash as well. The two paired well together and comparing TB's to most other washes it was a lot more mild which I like. It wasnt overwhelming like others. Its missing these ingredients: Alcohol, Saccharin, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Benzalkonium Chloride. So im guessing thats why the lack in overbearing mintyness.

How To Use This Product
Use TheraBreath Oral Rinse 2-3 times per day.

Use 1-2 capfuls and gargle thoroughly. Try to let the oral rinse reach as far back in your throat as possible without gagging. Gargle for at least 30 seconds, or as long as you can.

With a new capful of rinse, swish rinse completely around your entire mouth for at least another 45 seconds.



My favorite of the three products are the TheraBreath mouth wetting fresh breath lozenges. They are minty and yummy. The official flavor is mandarin mint. These are Kosher and approved for Diabetics according to the box. They do the job and Im glad I can add these to my purse for those times I dont have anything else to make my breath fresh. Now that my husband is home from deployment I may need some fresh breath more often ;)



Stage 1 uses our pleasant citrus mint formula to quickly eliminate any unpleasant flavors or odors in your mouth. Stage 2 uses the power of Zinc, Oxygen, and Xylitol - our clinical strength active ingredients -to attack the germs that cause bad breath. Stage 3 introduces our proprietary salivary agent to eliminate dry mouth and stimulate your body to produce saliva, a powerful germ fighting agent.

How To Use This Product
Eat a lozenge whenever your mouth feels dry or you experience an unpleasant flavor. Three or four a day should keep your mouth fresh, moist, and free of bad breath.


TheraBreath products can be found at Target, Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Harmon, Bed, Bath & Beyond, and at TheraBreath. Be sure to “Like” TheraBreath on Facebook and Follow TheraBreath on Twitter. TheraBreath is giving one lucky winner two full size products: TheraBreath Toothpaste and TheraBreath Oral Rinse.

InvisiBUMP Review and Giveaway (ends 2/18)

So the other day my husband asked me what my favorite "pregnancy purchases" had been and I instantly knew my favorite purchase.

The invisiBUMP!

Ive got a lot of hand-me-downs in the way of maternity clothes. Most of which dont exactly fit perfectly but im cheap and I dont want to buy more pants Ill only wear a few months. In comes the BUMP. I remember at the beginning of my pregnancy wanting to wear tight shirts to show off my belly but since my pants didnt fit I couldnt because I had a huge belt outline. I discovered the BUMP a few months ago and it has seriously been a life saver! Now I can wear my tight shirts to show off the belly AND my pants that are too big for me without feeling frumpy. 

My favorite things about the InvisBUMP:

• Its adjustable so it will fit most any belly bumps.
• No bulge = a sexy bump

and my most favorite thing about it:

• You dont have to take it off at the airport!

With my thinnest belt you can still see frumpy belt underneath

With the invisiBUMP! No lines. Just awesome smooth-ness.

I am so glad I made this purchase. You should too!

BUY

Right now when you buy 2 belts you get a free Rock Candy belt for free! Its PINK!
