Little Green Lice Guard Collection: A Back to School Basic





I don't like bugs, and neither do my girls {or my hubby for that matter}. That might seem like a "duh!" statement, but last night we just watched an episode of "Ridiculousness" on MTV where some IDIOT actually reached out to touch a huge poisonous spider and then had the audacity to be shocked when the spider bit him. No matter whether you are like me and completely averse to all things creepy crawley or an amateur entomologist {insect enthusiast}, any sane person knows to be wary and take precautions against parasitic, disease carrying, poisonous, or simply nuisance causing insects. It is in that vein that I am happy to share this inventive, preventative, hair product for your precious little ones from Little Green! {Products sent for consideration}


Quickie Giveaway: Restock Your School and Office Supplies with BIC!


 I don't know if this is common in other households, but in the Smith house, we go through school supplies very quickly. It probably has to do with the slight obsession that the girls and I have with pens, paper, and office/school supplies in general, but whatever the case, we love pens-and this selection from BIC is no exception! So I'm ecstatic to be able to offer one lucky lovely to same selection to replenish your school supply stores. {Products were sent for consideration}

Fall Into Beauty with L'Occitane's Lavender Bounty!





The Lavender fields of Provence have just finished a wonderful season. Capture the aromatic essence with L’Occitane’s Lavender Collection, and let the fresh scent transport you to the hills of the south of France. I'm usually not a big fan of lavender scents because they come off chemically to me. But L'Occitane has found a way to bottle up the herbaceous flower  in such a way that it is just like plucking a sprig from one of the lavender bushes in my front yard. {Product was sent for review/editorial consideration}

Mani Monday with London and New York Color Top Coats!




The other day when I decided to add an accent nail to my mani {featured here},  as is most often the case when the lil bits see me painting my nails, they want their's done too. For the most part I allow them to pick their own polishes and Lo somehow picked two top coats from NYC New York Color-274 Matte Me Crazy and 276 Big City Dazzle {both sent for review}. I tried to explain to her that they were both meant to go on top of other polishes, but she was quite insistent over her selections. I couldn't really blame her either; what little girl doesn't want a hot pink, sparklelicious manicure? Plus these super (and inexpensive at $1.99 a piece) polishes dry in 60 seconds (a must when you're dealing with little people who want their nails done but don't have a good grasp on the concept of staying still) so I acquiesced, and commenced to painting her tiny digits.
