Off! Smooth and Dry Insect Repellant

Off! Smooth and Dry Insect repellant.
Now, I live in Minnesota, so we are now into the nasty mosquito season…. The one thing I cannot stand is the pesky little buggers. I would take wood ticks over them any day! (which Off! Repels as well… ) The sound of them buzzing in my ears and the itchy welts they leave behind on me and my children just frustrate me. The last couple of years I have used the Off! Smooth and Dry and it has been by far my favorite as far as insect repellant goes. It smells faintly of say baby powder… it smells nothing like what you would expect it to and I can’t even tell that it is bug spray by the smell. It goes on your skin smooth. It kind of feels like you just poofed baby powder on. Leaves no greasy residue like you would get with other brands, after a while you forget you ever put it on. I use it all the time with myself and my 6 year olds! They usually hate the smell of bug spray and refuse to use it, but with this stuff, they beg to have more put on to keep those skeeters away! You can buy it pretty much anywhere. I usually suggest buying things on Amazon or something because it is cheaper, but with this, it really does not matter at all. It is fairly decent anyhow!  So go buy some and try it out! You will fall in Love!

Sleep Number Review- Mattress

SLEEP NUMBER BEDS

Most people can’t justify spending $2000 dollars on a bed... I understand. However, this is a bed my husband and I bought after our old mattress left us rolling into the middle of it every night. We bought the cheapest one they had. It is the classic series. One of which is shown in the picture on the left.
There are many reasons that I like this bed!
First of all, I am a very indecisive person. I never know exactly what I want. Some nights I like the soft fluffy bed and some nights I like the firm bed… Well with the Sleep Number, you get to choose whatever type that you want. I change it pretty often.
There are two separate chambers, one for my husband’s side and one for mine! It makes sleeping a lot easier when you can have your own firmness.
Being that there are two chambers, my main concern when we bought it was that we were going to feel that hump in the middle where they meet… NOPE!!!! Not there! It’s great!
Another great thing was that we had a puppy chew through the pump cord and they replaced the pump for us free of charge and upgraded us to a wireless controller!
I have had nothing but good experience with this bed. I would suggest it to anyone!!!

Tanning Lotion - HellBent

Hellbent Tanning Lotion

Today's Review is on the Hellbent tanning lotion.
I absolutely love this stuff. I tan during the winter for a couple of reasons... 1. Its WARM! 2. Stress Relief  and 3. If I didn't... I would make the world go blind with my white legs :).
Anyways, I have been using this for a while now, Tanning once a week and the color is there the first time you use it! It is AMAZING!
Now I wont go into all the details of what it contains and this and that but I will tell you my favorite things about it.

  • It Smells Great! None of that nasty tanning lotion smell! It smells like a scented lotion. You couldn't even tell that its a tanning lotion if you didn't know!
  • It has tattoo protector in it to help keep your tattoos from fading. This is great for those of us with a tattoo or two. - It in no way hinders the tanning process.
  • It is a bronzer. Yes, most people have a love hate relationship with Bronzers, But this one is great. No orange color. It doesn't wash off in the shower or shave off when you shave your legs. You can hardly tell what is bronzer and what is tan... Let me re-phrase... You CANT tell!

If this is a product that you want though.... it comes with a hefty price tag if you buy it at the tanning salon because they will charge you $77.00 for it.... Buy it on amazon and you can get it (same size and all) for $29.95!!!! Well worth it! I would even go as far to say that it is worth the $77... but why spend more when you don't need to!! :)
That's all!!!
Try and Enjoy!
