Introducing New Burt's Bees Lip Balm Flavors‏

Hey everyone,

Inspired by nature’s purest ingredients, Burt’s Bees has moisturized, nourished and hydrated your lips for over 30 years with the original Beeswax Lip Balm. Throughout the years, Burt’s Bees has been adding flavors varying from Coconut and Pear to Eucalyptus and it won’t stop now. Introducing Burt’s Bees newest Lip Balm flavors – Wild Cherry and Vanilla Bean.


Wild Cherry Moisturizing Lip Balm, (burtsbees.com, $3.30): Made with rich cherry oil—cold pressed from cherry seed kernels—this balm’s sweet, natural flavor with just a hint of tartness will invigorate your senses and pamper your lips.

Vanilla Bean Moisturizing Lip Balm, (burtsbees.com, $3.30): A luxuriously complex and comforting lip balm bursting with all-natural vanilla. Couple that with moisturizing Shea Butter and soothing Vitamin E, and you’ve got a true treat for happy lips.

I received both of these new flavors to try out, and I have to say they are true to their descriptions! Wild Cherry is perfect for those moments when you need a pick-me-up, and Vanilla Bean is great at soothing your lips during these cold winter months!

XoXo,
Whitney

Publix Progresso Soups

Hey everyone!

Discover the Homemade Taste of Progresso!


With winter upon us, sometimes there’s nothing better than curling up with a warm cup of soup. Don’t have time to create your favorite soup from scratch? Progresso makes it easier and tastier than ever to get that home-style soup flavor. With tender chunks of white meat chicken and quality ingredients, Progresso soups taste like homemade.

Be on the lookout for exclusive savings on Progresso soups starting December 4!

I got to try out the Progresso Traditional Chicken Noodle Soup and the Traditional Creamy Roast Chicken Herb Dumpling Soup.  Both of these soups were absolutely delicious, and I plan to keep these stocked in my cupboards throughout the winter season for quick meals on the go!

My favorite way to eat these soups is while watching my favorite Christmas movie on the couch, with plenty of crackers!

Hey everyone!

Just the other day, I received an exciting package in the mail from It Cosmetics containing their new Your Most Radiant You 5 Piece Collection! This kit will be available for 24 hours only as Today's Special Value on QVC and QVC.com on October 14th at midnight EST! This set is a must-have and would be perfect for all makeup lovers out there. Plus, with the holidays coming up, you can easily break apart the set and give individual items to your friends as gifts!



Buff on your Celebration Foundation Illumination to achieve a flawless face in 30 seconds! Gently swirl circles in your powder using the Heavenly Luxe Double Airbursh Foundation Brush, the dust onto your skin in circular motions for a naturally flawless, airbrushed finish that looks and feels like silk.
 

This velvety, full coverage foundation is infused with a blend of anti-again skin-loving ingredients! Celebration Foundation Illumination is your 30 seconds to flawless full coverage plus that look of perfect lighting all in one compact!
 

With the Heavenly Luxe Double Airbrush Foundation Brush or your favorite It Cosmetics Blush Brush, swirl the brush into the CC+ Radiance Ombre Blush and lightly dust over the apples of your cheeks using light, upward, sweeping motions for a flush of gorgeous color and radiance. For a more intense color, apply a second dusting of blush.
 

To add light to your cheeks, dip the edge of your brush into the highlight side of your blush and apply to the top of the cheekbone.
 

Line and define your most beautiful eyes. Gently and effortlessly glide the automatic No-Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner onto your upper and lower lash lines or inner rims for beautiful definition that lasts. 
 

Next, It's your lashes and extensions in one step! Starting at the base of your lashes, hold the Hello Lashes Extensions Mascara brush horizontally, then wiggle and sweep the brush up and through the tip of the lash. 
 

To add volume, length and separation to your lashes, go vertical! Holding the brush vertical, use the lash ball detailer to define each lash on the upper and lower lash line.

You are beautiful, you are one of a kind, you are IT!

XoXo,
Whitney
