Product Review for Beeutiful Creations

I was given the opportunity to review some items from Beeutiful Creations, a maker of hair accessories for girls. I have been blessed with two boys, so I had to enlist the help of a friend! Her little girls were so excited to help! It could not have gone any better- one loved the dainty little ribbon bows, while the other wanted the flower clips! They were even kind enough to model them for me! :)


The bows consisted of a ribbon-lined alligator clip. This ensured a no slip grip, as well as kept it from snagging or pulling hair!
The best part is that they are only $1 each or two for $1.50! Yes, you read that right!!

            
The custom hair flowers are equally spectacular! At only $4 each, they have so many possibilities! While they were originally created as hair accessories, my model wanted to try it out as a bag accessory! They could also be clipped to a dress, a back pack, or anything else you can think of! They are even large enough for adults to wear. This would be a great addition to a mother/daughter outfit!

Other available items include korker bows, smaller flowers, and seasonal specialties!Custom work is also available to coordinate any event! head over to Beeutiful Creations today and design yours! Make sure to let her know who sent you!

Page Review for The Gray Deer

Girly nostalgia. Sophisticated flare. Arthritic stitches of love...

These are some of the words shop owner, Liz, uses to describe the items in her Etsy store. I could not agree more. Each of the seven pages of the online store is filled with items just begging to be purchased! Little girls will love the handmade pose-able dolls or the matching pig tail bows for their hair.



Moms will love the unique figurines made from spools to the one of a kind jewelry pieces. There is even a sale section full of items all at 30% off! If you are looking for a gift for a special little girl, you don't need to look any further. Head over to The Gray Deer and start your shopping. Don't forget to include a hand painted gift bag to gift your item in!
 Liz is currently a happily married stay-at-home mother of two. She is a Midwest girl through and through, born and raised in Chicago, and now living in Northwest Missouri. You can also join her blog at http://thegraydeer.blogspot.com/ to see all the stories behind each collection! Leave her a message and let her know Little Bee Buzz sent you!

{Review} Kristi B's Norwek

A little bit about Norwek
Finding ways of not only cutting the harmful chemicals from your cleaning but completely replacing the chemicals with plan tap water! How? They have taken the micro fiber cloth to an all new level by adding silver particles to do the hard work in place of the chemicals.
Product: Lint Mitt
Nice small size to tuck into your car glove box or purse to remove lint on the go. I first thought that I really don’t have an issue with lint but with 3 dogs I have an issue with hair! Started off with a big project the coach (yes our dogs are allowed on the couch). It was a bit much to jump right in and start using the mitt so I vacuumed first to get the bulk and the mitt took care of the rest of the hard to remove hair. I also used the vacuum to clean the hair off the mitt as well easily picks up hair and this was used as a quick clean. I was running late for work when I realized my dog had slept on my uniform took a few seconds to quickly remove all the hair. After a few uses toss the mitt into a laundry bag(Norwek has one for sale) and in with the wash it goes to get a good cleaning, just skip the bleach and fabric softener.
More Products:
Love the concept of the mops with pads that can be tossed but feeling guilty about all that waste? Check out Norwek floor system they have both wet and dry system to use. May be a bit pricey but think of all the money you will save when you don’t have to go out and buy more replacement pads. Or how healthy and clean your house will feel when you ditch the old school mop!
There is a product line of organic personal health care, packages for cleaning cars, a mirco cloth for cleaning glasses and so much more.
Check out the website:

I would definitely suggest not only this product but this company to a friend!

{Review} Shake Your Way To Healthy!


Body by Vi Shakes

I have just finished a strawberry breakfast shake sent to me by Ashley Graham and I feel full and a nice bundle of energy. Let me point out that I feel full but not bloated and the energy feels more natural then what you would get from an energy drink!

My blender was on the fritz but I just added the shake powder (which smells amazing) to 8oz of milk and then added the Strawberry flavor. There are multiple flavors for those who, like me, get bored with the same flavor over and over. Flavors include Strawberry, Chocolate, Banana, Peach, and Orange. I was shocked at how easy it was to mix the powders with out a blender. I added some ice just to keep it cool and the overall texture was very nice no grit and it was smooth. I am sure if it is blended with some more ice it would be just like an ice cream shake. If you don’t care for milk shakes then just use a shaker method as I did. It has now been 4 hours since I drank the shake and I still feel full. It has been almost 9 hours since I drank the shake and I still have a good amount of energy, I have been working in my garden all day which is a real pain because it is all digging out over grown weeds in the hot hot sun!

Body by Vi has created packages for easy shopping based off of what your health goal is. There is a Balance Kit to help get your health back on track, a Shape Kit to help you slim down, a Core Kit for total nutrition, and a Transformation Kit to really blast that stubborn fat away and it will do it fast! You can also buy items separately and they offer much more then just the shakes. Examples are all natural cookies, Antioxidant Supplement, Anti-Aging and Energy Supplement, and multiple performance drink mixes that can be added to shakes or to other drinks through out the day! Take some time to check out all the products on her website. shake4free.bodybyvi.com

If you chose the Transformation Kit take before and after photos and enter your story for a chance to win multiple prizes! The grand prize is a trip to Hollywood for a complete make over (you are going to need some new clothing for your new healthy body!) and a cruise. You can also get your challenge kit for free if you refer 3 customers to join the contest with you. Get the products for free and the support of 3 of your friends to take the challenge with you.

If you fall in love with the products then join the team and start making an income off of it! You can not only make a little extra income but you could also win a BMW or if that isn’t your style then you can go on a vacation instead! Help customers lose weight, make some money to do with as you please, and win some extra prizes.

I also wanted to share Ashley’s story! She is selling these shakes and using them herself to get her sexy back. Ashley is a proud mamma of twins and since she started the shake she has lost one pants size and 10 pounds all from just drinking a shake for breakfast which is less then $2. How much money do you spend on breakfast? Do you even eat breakfast? (which is really bad for you) Do you skip food and just grab a coffee at your favorite coffee house? I bet your coffee cost about $2(maybe more) and I bet it doesn’t fill you up, leaving you hungry all day.

-----------------------------


To start my review of this company I will first and foremost point out the initiative businesses show by having their products reviewed.  Having your product reviewed by a "mom" blog or "housewife" blog is the modern form of product endorsement.  
 
Customer Interaction:  CEO/Founder Kristi scores a 10 out of 10! She was quick to respond via email, friendly and professional.  We were "right down to business", there was no hesitation or delay period.  Though I had my choice of eyeshadow colors to sample I asked Kristi to suggest one based on a quick description of my complexion, eye and hair color.  And I must say, she chose greatly!

Shipping Turnaround:  SUPER fast!  I received my sample in 3 days! 

Product:  Incredible.  I received a full size sample (not just a smudge on a card) of Mineral eye shadow in Cafe Au Lait. A coppery warm color. 


(Sorry, I really need my brows done)

Now I am FAR from a makeup artist.  In fact I taught myself to apply makeup as my mother passed away before I started using it.  So basic & simple are definitely my style.  Here I'm just wearing the Cafe Au Lait shadow, dark brown liner and mascara.  

The color Kristi suggested went great with my fair complexion and dark blue/green eyes. 


The color had a bit of shimmer to it without being too loud.  It was light enough to use for day or it could be dressed up for evening also.  

Now, I noted on the KmS website that they boast about staying power.  And I must say AMEN!  This shadow stayed PUT through my "preggo in summer" sweating and a nap!  No creases, no flaking, no smudging or fading.  I put it on in the morning and it was exactly the same that night.  Very Very impressed. 

I was also impressed with how lightweight it is.  This was my first experience with mineral makeup. I noted right on the jar that it contains only: Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide, Mica, Iron Oxide and Kaolin Clay.  

KmS offers a large variety of Eye Shadow Pigments:




As well as lots of other cosmetics and skin care--all at "Mom-budget" friendly pricing!  I will definitely be looking to her for my makeup purchases in the future.

{REVIEW} Hair Brained Creations

 



A note from Ali, the shop owner:
It started in March of this year, and I started this business because I wanted so extra income for me and my family. AND I'm completely in LOVE with crocheting :) I have 5 kiddos 4 of them 5 and under :) and I wanted to be a SAHM but try to supplement my hubby's income so that he wasn't working 16 hour days! :). It really was an accident I posted one of my creations on FB with a cruddy phone pic and it just went BOOM! I have been SO blessed I have met the nicest people on FB and have some really great FANS and FRIENDS!
 
 
 
Our Review:
We received several bows & bands from HBC. I was immediately impressed with the friendliness of Ali-the owner-and her readiness to spread the word about her fantastic business, even if it meant giving out free products! Everyone loves freebies, so having the willingness to provide them to your fans creates loyalty and boosts morale.
I noted the soft quality of the materials used and the quality craftsmanship that went into each item.

Each of the hair clips can be attached to a crocheted headband, giving you several options and styles with minimal pieces.
 


 
HBC offers several color options and styles-with nothing TOO over the top. Simple designs that can be worn on a daily basis, for outside play or dressed up for parties.

As a business HBC is always running promotions, offering prizes, sponsoring giveaways and helping out the fellow-business-owner via Flash Auctions on the Wall.

All in all, the Little Bee finds this business to be 100% BUZZworthy.
