I don't know about you girls, but there are two essential makeup products that I simply can not live without. I like to always have mascara on my lashes and color on my lips! I feel like when I have these two things, I look presentable enough to run quick errands or answer the door when someone rings. They put a little spring in my step and make me feel somewhat girly, even in my faded jeans and a tee.

Today, I thought it would be so much fun to give away a gift set that I also have, and LOVE. I received mine for Christmas and after I experimented with the great products, thought I would give one away to one of my special bloggy friends.

You're going to love it.

I really enjoy Sephora's sampler gift sets. They take their favorite products from that year (this, being lip products) and put them all together so that you can try via trial and error and find something that might change your life! I also received the mascara gift set, and I found some I liked, but I ultimately stayed with my tried and true Dior Blackout.

Here is a description!

What it is:
A set of seven of Sephora's most talked-about lip essentials in one exclusive collection.

What it does:
This set of minis includes everything you need for a perfectly pink pout, from juicy lip glosses and a lasting lip stain to a precision liner and lip-tingling lipstick.

This set contains:
- 0.01 oz Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Stick in Amsterdam
- 0.1 oz Tarte Rise & Shine Gloss Duo in Mauve
- 0.12 oz Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lipgloss in Wallflower
- 0.28 oz Lancome Juicy Tubes in Moulin Rose
- 0.14 oz Smashbox Lip Enhancing Gloss in True Color
- 0.14 oz Josie Maran Argan Natural Volume Lip Gloss in Precious
- 0.02 oz Sephora Collection Nano Lips Liner in Candid Candy

Here is how you enter:

1. Leave me a comment telling me your MUST HAVE makeup product.
2. Post on your own blog about the giveaway and enter again!
3. Tweet/Facebook it, enter again.

GOOD LUCK! :)

Miracle Sleeper

2010-07-14T18:34:00.001-07:00

Every single night without fail, I do my nightly routine of prepping for bed and when I slip into my soft sheets and lay my head on my plush pillow, I immediately reach for my Brookstone sleep mask and slide it across my lids.

A few minutes later, I am drifting off into Dream Land where I'm eating planet sized cookies and trees made of licorice. It's lovely, really.

I have told you before and have even done a giveaway of these a year or so ago, but I am absolutely IN LOVE with this sleep mask. I have owned plenty of sleep masks in my time and none of them suffice. After experiencing this little delight, no other mask will do.

It's incredibly soft.
It is the perfect fit.
And it will change your life.

Honestly!

You will never sleep the same again!

Sometimes, when I have a really bad headache, I'll slide it across my forehead and walk around the house with it. It feels SO good and gives the perfect amount of pressure.

So, I am choosing one very special commenter to give their very own Brookstone sleep mask. You will even get to choose which color you want! :)

All you have to do is leave me a comment!
If you post on your own blog, Facebook or Twitter about the giveaway, you can enter again.

Answer this: Do you remember your dreams?

(Every single morning, I can vividly recount every single dream I had the night before. Husby, however, says he never dreams...and if he does, he has no recollection of it. This blows me AWAY!!!)

So what about you.... do you dream?

Winner announced Monday morning (I'll be away from my blog for the rest of the week). Thanks for playing!

Country Bob's!

2010-02-25T18:44:00.000-08:00

I am so far behind on Reviews, and for that, I apologize!

Back in October, Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce contacted me, sent me two bottles and asked that I review their product.

My chance to use it finally came and let me tell you what, the sauce is FANTASTIC!

We used it on fried steak, but I think it would be tasty on just about anything. It wasn't too strong, which was great for a girl like me who isn't a big sauce girl.

It gave the fried steak just the kick it needed. Yum! My mouth is watering just thinking about how good it was. No....seriously!

I am thoroughly impressed with the company. They are family owned and operated and they aren't afraid to give credit where credit is due, claiming Christ as their CEO. I just love that.

When I run out of sauce, I will definitely purchase Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce from here on out. It's deeeelish.
