Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion Body Care

My skin has been incredibly dry this season. I’ve been itching all over and it’s embarrassing! A co-worker and I were talking the other day and saying how our hands were so dry that they looked like old, wrinkly hands. Not attractive at all. I recently tried Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion Body Care. I love Moroccan oil and I’ve used it on my hair, but never on my skin. If you’ve ever used Moroccan oil products you know that they usually aren’t cheap, I love how women everywhere have access to premium products infused with authentic Moroccan argan oil at a great price.

New Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion Body Care products are clinically proven to moisturize and have a light, luxurious fragrance infused with authentic Moroccan argan oil, a lightweight miracle oil known to be rich in nutrients and antioxidants. The easy to use body oil is my favorite. I can pop it in my purse and anytime I need a quick moisturizing I’m good to go! D7K_4403

You can see below how quickly and easily Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion Body Oil works on my hands:hands

Bit by the Bynto Bug

D7K_4186

I’ve read about a lot of things you can do with Bynto lunch storage to make eating lunch fun for your kiddos.  It’s crazy how fun little shapes and stickers can make eating fun for a 3-year-old.  Actually, since I used this the first time he wants his lunch in it every time.  I received some fun goodies from Goodbyn and had so much fun playing around with making lunch!

Do you pack lunches for your kids?  If so how do you make it fun and what do they like to eat?
D7K_4189

I’m giving away one lunch set from Goodbyn to get you started on your Bynto journey!

Just answer this question?

HOW DO YOU MAKE LUNCH FUN FOR YOUR KIDS?

Heck, that you want to watch.

Crafting Sparkly Ornaments

D7K_2531
On the weekends I usually like to do a fun art project with Connor.  It’s our special time together, and I have always loved being creative.  So we decided to make some snowflake ornaments with Crayola Model Magic.  We just flattened out the model dough and then used a snowflake cookie cutter to make our ornaments.
D7K_2533 Then we let them dry for about 24 hours.  After that we added some sparkling gemstones and glitter glue to make them EXTRA sparkly 🙂D7K_2536 D7K_2547 D7K_2550 We also made a little bear that lives in the gingerbread house too.

D7K_2552 Connor drew me a picture of a snow village with the Crayola Slick Stick Crayons.  These crayons are amazing and glide super smooth on paper.  We always break crayons, so I’m loving these because they are hard to break.D7K_2555 D7K_2561That’s my creative boy!  Look at that snow village right???  The kid has mad skills.D7K_2575
Here are our magical creations!  Aren’t they so pretty!  I just poked a hole through the top and tied some string to them & hung on the tree.  D7K_2646 D7K_2647 D7K_2649
