ElureI've always been plagued by my freckles and other signs of sun damage on my face.  I wish I would have practiced better sun protection when I was younger, for now, my skin is definitely paying the price.  If you suffer from pigmentation issues, but have nowhere to turn, Elure Advanced Lighting Technology is a new topical cosmetic solution.

This system utilizes a natural enzyme technology that temporarily reduces dark-colored pigmentation that is marring your skin.  Elure’s gentle formulas work to correct this discoloration.  Want to learn more about the products that can deliver serious results?  Then keep reading to learn more!

DOLEAre you a busy mom with a family that's always on the move?  These days, a hectic lifestyle definitely seems to be the norm and not the exception, which can make healthy eating next to impossible.  I love finding delicious grab-and-go options that are both healthful and portable.  That's why I was all ears when I learned of the new DOLE Fruit Crisps.

These pocket-size snacks contain all natural fruit, are made with whole grain oats and come in three yummy varieties: peach, apple cinnamon and apple pear.  Not only did I have the chance to sample these new fruity concoctions, several of my friends and family did too.  DOLE allowed me to throw a small get-together where we all feasted on the new DOLE Fruit Crisps while painting Easter eggs for the holiday.  Keep reading to learn more!

STMIn the age of technology, I must admit that I cannot take a trip lasting more than a few hours without my trusty laptop.  Of course, I usually carry my camera and iPad wherever I go too.  Because I'm constantly toting these expensive electronics around, I rely heavily on a quality travel bag to protect them on the journey.

STM is an Australian company whose main mission is to design stylish bags and accessories that protect your precious technological devices whenever you hit the road.  I had the chance to review one of their newest creations, the Impulse Medium Laptop Backpack.  Keep reading to learn more!

I reviewed the Impulse Medium Laptop Backpack in Gray from STM, which retails for $99.99.

Hapari SwimwearI am so excited to have found the perfect place for a swimsuit this year!  This summer will probably be the most challenging for me, since my body is FAR LESS than perfect.  As you may have read about in some of my previous posts, I'm currently on a mission to lose at least 15 pounds thanks in part to my recent diagnosis with Hashimoto's disease.

Now, believe me, I would rather not frequent the pool right now, but the weather has been gorgeous and a 4-year-old just doesn't understand that we can't go to the pool because mommy has nothing flattering to wear!  :)  Thank goodness I've discovered Hapari Swimwear!  Ladies, if you're less than happy with your physical appearance right now and are wanting to cry when the word "swimsuit" is even mentioned, then please read on!

P&GWhen I go grocery shopping each week, I notice that my cart is filled with many of the same brand name products on each and every trip.  These items have long proven themselves in my household and there's no way I would consider switching to anything else just to save a few cents.  Upon closer inspection, I find that many of my family's most trusted brands have one thing in common...they're from Procter & Gamble.

From beauty and health to home and beyond, P&G’s brands make every day just a little better for billions of consumers around the world.  Venus razors, Pantene shampoo and conditioner and Tide detergent are just a few out of dozens of P&G products I simply couldn't be without.  Not to mention Cover Girl cosmetics, Febreze air fresheners, IAMS pet food and Cascade dishwasher detergent.

If you love P&G products too and depend on these household essentials to make your life a little easier, then keep reading to learn how P&G wants to share, love and celebrate the best of what they have to offer with you!

Celebrate with Hershey'sIn my house, we're having plenty of fun right now preparing for one of our favorite annual visitors...the Easter bunny!  There's eggs to boil and decorate, pictures to draw and decorations to make.  Of course, all parents also have one other task to complete on their own each year...making the infamous Easter baskets for your children.

I love including a wide variety of items for Riley in her Easter basket, such as fun Spring socks, new Spring fashions for her dolls, brightly colored hair accessories, Spring-themed crafts and activities and of course, CHOCOLATE!  When I think of the perfect variety of Easter chocolate and other assorted candies, only one brand immediately springs to mind...HERSHEY'S!
