NYX Shine Killer Review

I bought this product because it had the words "Shine Killer"
 It was a product I have been looking for a product that would take way that oily shine I had on my nose and hide it. I read the box and looked at the before and after picture, I dislike having my nose look shiny while the rest of my face looks great. My oily nose really stand out during the summer months.

I used the NYX shine killer twice and the claim that it will eliminate that oily shine is false!! This product doesn't stand up to what it claims to do.

                                               If you look at the tip of my nose its shiny.



I will still continue to use this a primer it goes on silky smooth.
 So I'm off to find a product that will  but not sure if I will find one.

Thees opinions are my own. I was not compensate by NYX do do this review in any way.

of 7 beautiful Grandchildren, their safety comes #1 and these candles in the LED Hanging
Lantern or Tea Lights both provide.

Light your porch, deck or home for Halloween with this festive indoor/outdoor lantern that can be hung or stand alone.

Eclos "Dare To Be Bare" 2 Week Challenge Review

Hello, I took the "Dare To Be Bare" 2 week challenge through a Klout Perk I got free.
 I received  three Freeman Eclos products to use during this challenge.

 Let me tell you a little about this product.
"The Eclos uses Apple Stem Cell technology from a rare swiss apple that has been harvested since the 1800's . They say this apple helps maintain longevity in both life and nutrient value and helps control the sign of aging skin".

During this 2 week challenge this was my routine..
I started with the Eclos am + pm skin prep cleaner I used this twice daily in the morning before I did my daily makeup routine and in the evening to take off my makeup. I really love this cleaner it took off all my makeup without leaving my skin over dry or tight. I really like the container that this prep cleaner comes in. It so easy to pump the prep cleaner into your hands as oppose to trying to open a flip cap with wet hands.

Next I applied the Eclos am + pm Moisture Therapy Regenerative Cream again twice daily. This cream is a rich medium weight moisturizer that helps smooth and brighten your skin and that's exactly what it does. My face looks really fresh and brighter. It has a great scent and I do believe that it also reduced the appearance of my fine line wrinkles. I'm super happy about that! We all want to fight the signs of aging.

Lastly I used the Eclos Daily Hydra Primer SPF 30 only in the morning before applying my makeup. This is actually a great Primer to use. This Primer helped to even out my skin tone and minimized my fine lines. My makeup looked so flawless when I used this Hydra Primer daily.I haven't used any other primer more then I have this.

This blended into my skin beautifully.

I'm happy that I was given this opportunity to take this "Dare To Be Bare" 2 week challenge.

 Here is my after picture I'm excited to tell you that my skin hasn't looked this great in a long time. Sorry I don't have the before pictures but you can find them on my Instagram page by clicking here pbkup 

If you want to see more twitter  posts check out this hash tag  #eclosgobare

My opinions are my own. I was given a free product or sample because I'm a Klout Influencer. I am under no obligation to receive the sample or talk about this company. I get no additional benefits for talking about the products or company.

RYOBI 40 Volt Cordless Chainsaw Giveaway

RYOBI  40 VOLT CORDLESS CHAINSAW

Holiday Contest and Sweeps

with the help of a group of amazing blogs shown

below, brings you this terrific event just in time for

the Fall cleanup. This will be a great deal easier for

the lucky winner of this event using the Ryobi Cordless

Chainsaw.

RYOBI 40 Volt Cordless Chainsaw Giveaway

The masterful company of RYOBI has been kind enough to provide 

this amazing chainsaw to one lucky winner of this giveaway. I had

the experience of reviewing and trying out this product and I defiantly

give it 5 stars. With fall coming this is the only tool you will need when

cutting down or trimming small branches or trees.It easily cut down

branches 3-4 inches in diameter with ease. There is no need to use force

when cutting, just set back and let the chainsaw do the work for you. 

After cutting 10 3-4 inches in diameter branches, I also easily cut through

some larger branches around 6 or 7 inches in diameter with no problem. After

all this work you would think the battery had to be almost dead, well that

is far from the truth. The Lithium Battery still had half of it charge left to go

as well as the oil was at the same stage. One of the amazing things about 

this saw is it is very quiet and light to carry. Other saws would have woke

up the entire neighborhood, not only that, your arms would have been sore 

from using a heavier gas machine or tugging around a extension cord from

the corded models. I love the tool less chain tensioning feature that makes

adjustments a breeze

If your looking to cut downs large tree that belong in a forest than this saw is

not for you. But if you want a tool that starts in a second every time and is capable

of cleaning and trimming up small to medium branches around your house then

this should be the only chainsaw you will ever need for these purposes.

Ryobi takes cordless technology to the next level with the new 40V Lithium-ion Outdoor Series. Designed for the perfect marriage of Power and Convenience, this chainsaw is powered by a 40V Lithium-ion battery. That means fade-free performance, maximum power, and maximum run time. All backed by a 3 year warranty. The Ryobi 40V Lithium-ion Chainsaw gives you a great reason to enter the Cordless Age.

No more having to stretch extension cords across your yard or worry about running out of gas with this

top of the line chainsaw.

40V Lithium-Ion battery 
Quick charger fully charges your battery in less than 2 hours 
12 in. bar and chain 
Tool-less chain tensioning for simple adjustments
