    New Snack Alert @Crunchiesfood

    People who snack all day long are call grazers. Some studies say that it is better to graze throughout the day rather than eating big meals. What do you think? My mom never eats snacks but both my husband and I are major snackers. He loves chocolate chips and I love savory, salty — cheetos anyone?? But lately, we have been on a mission to find healthy snack options like almonds and fruit.  When I got these from Crunchies, I was really excited to try them!

    The sweet corn is really tasty. It is slightly sweet, a bit salty and the small pieces make the bag seem to last forever. It is not like popcorn and it is not like corn nuts. They are totally different.

    The only thing taken out of the veggies through Crunchies’ patented freeze-drying process is water. No additives, no preservatives. That means no added sugar, no oil, no sulphur. They’re wheat-free, gluten-free, and GMO-free, but rich in fiber and nutrients. Less water equals more flavor and a satisfying crunch that both kids and adults love.

    Car Adventures with @surefitinc

    National Dog Day is on August 26 but for dog owners, dog day is everyday!  We were so lucky to get a car for the summer from Tai’s mom and we have been fully taking advantage of it. The seats are leather and we needed something to cover the seats properly.  I have tried different things like fitted bed sheets, towels and canopy type plastic ones and nothing has worked as well as the Sure Fit.



    There are quilted padded parts and the straps are sturdy and will not move. In the past I have used ones that have velcro and it never held when the car or the dog moves. The Sure Fit cover is also waterproof!  This is important when it comes to grass stains, mud, water etc… If you take your dog to the beach, camping, hiking or park – protect your car seat with this!  It looks way better than an old bed-sheet and can be machine washable as well.

    Extend the practical and stylish solution of waterproof suede to your vehicle to protect upholstery. Laminated backing and bound seaming prevent leaks, while all-over 4” box quilting and lofty 5 oz. polyester fill add cushiony comfort. The bench seat cover extends over the sides and front and is held in place with an adjustable horizontal back strap and vertical sliding straps. The bench seat cover is available in two sizes to fit automobiles, SUVs and vans: Medium (48”-54” seat back) and Large (58”-64” seat back). 100% polyester with 100% polyester fill and 100% polypropylene backing. Machine washable.

    Better than Sex Mascara by @toofaced

    I remember when TOOFaced was a new brand and didn’t have 30,000 followers on Twitter and a slew of celebrities who loved it. I LOVED TooFaced from when I first found this brand and I STILL love it!

    At a Sephora event at Bauble Bar last month, I got a sample of Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara. I am kind of a mascara snob, you know like – gimme diorshow or hit the road buster kinda girl. BUT I have to say… I do love trying new products!

    photo-3This mascara has a mega brush, fiber and is slick, perfect and frames your lashes in a neat a full way.  It is a great nature, no-raccoon eyes mascara that is my new go-to!

     

    The Better Than Sex Mascara Hourglass-Shaped Brush was designed after discovering the bust-waist-hip ratio of an iconic silver screen Blonde Bombshell held the secret to the perfect brush silhouette that separates, coats and curls each lash to voluptuous perfection. One coat of the carbon black, collagen-fueled mascara formula and lashes are full, defined and stretched to unbelievable lengths. Two coats and lashes are even more luscious, curled and dramatic. Three coats and achieve the most intense black, oversized, multidimensional lashes possible! A mascara so amazing…it’s Better Than Sex!

    If you are looking for a new primer, try the Primed & Poreless – gorgeous and it’s the perfect way to get streak free bronzer during the summer.
