Tetra Pak Carton Soups Review



I have been eating canned soups all my life and was perfectly content eating soups from a can… that is until I was able to try carton soups. After trying the tetra pak chicken noodle soup for the first time, I was amazed at what a difference being packaged in a carton meant to the flavor of the soup. When soup comes from a can, you detect a hint of aluminum in the flavor or the soup which let’s face it is a bit gross... well I can tell you right now that this is NOT the case for carton packaged soups and as an added bonus, they take up way less space in your pantry!


I am now officially a fan forever. Hooray for carton soups! I will definitely be stocking my pantry with these for the winter!!!

Thanks for reading!!!

Psoriasin Review

When I was about 13 years old, I began to see the beginning stages of proriasis symptoms appear on my skin. Up until a few years ago, my psoriasis was pretty mild and not too noticable... around 2008 my symptoms became so bad that my skin felt as if it were on fire in the areas of my body where the psoriasis was most active and I itched like crazy all over... especially during the colder months of the year.

I have tried many prescription treatments, usually which have steroids in it. I have also tried natural treatments such as coconut oil, honey, aloe, apple cider vinegar, etc. While the natural treatments did help, my symptoms were so severe that it never seemed to make my psoriasis completely go away.

About a month ago I was in the car with my family looking in the passenger side mirror at the rash on my face ... I was ready to cry because of how horrible I looked. You couldn't even see my face, all you noticed was the rash on my face. It was all red and splotchy looking. My hubby told me 'there has to be something over the counter at the store for that by now'. We had previously looked at the store for a non-prescription treatment with no luck besides natural products such as aloe, apple cider vinegar, etc. ...when we arrived at the store to look, I was so happy to see that I had more options. We discovered psoriasin while looking at the few products they had there for psoriasis. This product is specifically made for those suffering with psoriasis which was obviously what I was looking for. What intrigued me the most was the fact that it not only got rid of the rash, but also prevented it from coming back.

I picked up a box of the psoriasin gel and took it home to try. I noticed practically immediate results! I used some before bed that night and then again in the morning ...and twice more throughout the day. On the third day... my face was pretty much clear! It smells a bit stinky (the product has tar in it) but it is still worth it in the long run in my opinion. I was so happy to have my face back and I have been using psoriasin since. I have also tried the ointment which costs a bit more but has lasted me alot longer.

I give this product 4 out of 5 stars... taking one point away only because of the slight tar smell.

Kyani Review

First of all, for those who are not fimiliar with Kyani... Let me introduce you to their main products.

Kyani Products


  • Kyani Sunrise - A powerfull and vitamin rich, nutritional beverage made from Alaskan blueberries, which are very strong antioxidants.
  • Kyani Sunset - An omega-3 supplement made from Wild Alaskan sock-eyed salmon. Kyani Sunset is very good for your heart, skin, hair and is great for maintaining healthy cholesterol and lowering blood sugar levels.
  • Nitro-FX - A nitric oxide product that is made with the superfruit Noni which assists every cell in the body. Nitro-FX helps boost your energy level and can improve sexual health.
These are only brief descriptions of these products. You can read more about these products and their health benefits HERE.

My Review

After learning that both my sister and brother became Kyani distributors over a year ago, I was very intrigued with Kyani and the company. I then decided to do some research of my own, reading up on each product and their health benefits. I also discovered that the Kyani Medical Advisory Board includes three very distinguished doctors that have extensive understanding on the power of nitric oxide, the antioxidant potency of Alaskan blueberries and tocotrienols, one of the key components of Kyani Sunset.

I decided to try the products with the help of my brother and boy was I amazed! After trying the Kyani products, I realized a few things about my health which I didn't really notice prior to trying Kyani. One of the things I noticed was my boost in energy... that part is very true! ...and the best part is that Kyani is made from all natural ingredients, so I didn't need to feel guilty about what I was putting in my body.

Another thing I noticed was that Kyani helped me with my sleeping patterns. I used to have issues falling asleep until an hour or two after laying down. After Kyani, I can go to bed shortly after laying down and I wake up feeling great! I used to have a hard time waking up in the morning.

I give Kyani 5 out of 5 stars... I will definately continue using Kyani products!

The Company

If you are considering becoming a Kyani Distributor, you can read about the company founders HERE.

Based on my research, Kyani is a growing company that has a tremendous amount of funding and has a good management team leading the company. The company also has good products with a solid compensation plan. So if you are seeking a health based network marketing business, Kyani may be the solution for you. If you would like more information on how to become a Kyani distributor, CLICK HERE.This was my review on Kyani products but remember ...while there are very reliable sources that backup what these products are said to do, it's important that you do your own research so you feel good about what the products are about.

Lemon Bundt Cake Candle (by Angie) REVIEW

I was fortunate enough to be one of the first to review a candle made by fellow mom, Angie Beechan. I had previously purchased a candle from Angie when she was an independent consultant of a known candle company. Angie later became inspired to create her own candles and after responding to a post on Angie's Blog, I was able to try out one of her splendid creations.




My Review

I recieved my package on Wednesday and as I opened it, I noticed the mason jar had a wonderful clear design on it which cannot be seen on the image above. The jar's design is pretty but it could probably use some form of label on top of the jar cover perhaps (which I am sure Angie has plans to add in the future) ...just to add a splash of contrasting color.

I have been burning the candle for 4 hours at a time for the past 2 days. I noticed immediately after lighting the wick for the first time that there was a pretty decent amount of scent embedded in the candle. The Lemon Bundt Cake scent made me hungry hehe. The candle did have some bubbling while the wax was heated, but in a way... I feel like it added to the whole 'handmade' feel that the candle had going on ...and the candle even looks like a dessert when the wax is hardened, which again made me hungry hehe.

One of the things that impressed me most about the candle was its burn time. It seems to have a very long burn time life. As I stated earlier... I have been burning the candle for 4 hours at a time for the past 2 days and the candle jar is still more than half full!

I am loving Angie's Lemon Bundt Cake scented candle and I can't wait to see what else she has planned for the future. I would totally recommend this candle to my friends...

Great job Angie!

Avon Advanced Techniques Haircare Review

I have tried many Avon products over the years but more so after becoming a representative for Avon myself. I find it extremely handy with the free shipping for reps to buy my families everyday items such as shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, etc.

I have really long hair which has been very difficult to maintain. A couple of years ago my hair had started to get really dry, frizzy and difficult to brush, especially when I didn't use any conditioner. I have used many brands of Shampoos & Conditioners promising results for dry and/or damaged hair. Brands including Vidal Sassoon, Aussie, Suave, TRESemme so on so forth. I have also used dandruff shampoos like Head & Shoulders, Denorex, etc. for my dry scalp.

One of my absolute favorite product lines that Avon has to offer is their Advance Techniques Hair Care products. I often use the 2-in-1 Anti Dandruff Shampoo & Conditioner and the Intense Repair Shampoo & Conditioner. I have also tried the treatment products like the Cello Shine Treatment and the Intense Repair Hair Mask.

I just need to say that after using these products on myself ...my hair has not been this soft in years! I can even run my hands through my hair without it getting caught in a tangle and it doesn't hurt to run a comb through my hair. I absolutely LOVE Avon's Advance Techniques Hair Care Collections. They even have a couple of new collections for blondes and brunettes (which they currently have a special going on at the moment for - radiant brunette collection only).

I would really recommend Avon's Hair Care Collections especially to those who have tried hair care products and have been dissapointed in the past. It has made a world of difference for my hair.
