Smartfood Selects

Smartfood Hummus Popped Chips, Feta Herb, 40-Count

Out of the flavors I've tried - the Feta Herb Hummus popped chips from Smartfood Selects are my favorite.  They are filled with flavor and are filling too.  These are becoming the staple snack in my house as everyone is enjoying them.  Lower in fat-calories-carbs than other chips, popped chips are the way to go.  Feta Herb is a unique flavor, but one that will grab you from the first chip!

Review: Tide Pods Detergent

Tide Pods Detergent, Spring Meadow, 69-Ounce, 77-Count
New Tide® PODS™ have a revolutionary three- chamber design that cleans, fights stains and brightens all in one. Just pop ‘em in to give your laundry a clean that is seriously deep down and thorough.

Review:  Easy to Use & Gets Clothes Clean 

These pods are really easy to use, especially if you want to cut down on the mess that can come with liquid and powder detergents. The Tide PODS get thrown into the drum with your clothes, even if you have a High Efficiency washing machine. The only drawback comes with the fact that one pac = 1 load. There is no option of pouring less detergent when you are only washing a few things. I often have a smaller delicate load of laundry and wouldn't use this pack during that wash cycle because of the size and the fear of putting this in with delicate clothing.

REVIEW

Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Insoles are like little cushions just for my feet.  As a nursing student, I'm on my feet at clinicals for long hours.  I've used Dr. Scholl's Insoles before, but the Massaging Gel ones are new to me.  I love these things.  Not only are my shoes fitting better, but my feet aren't throbbing and aching after 12 hours on my feet.  The only drawback is that I have to adjust them a little before I put my shoes on each day as they don't stick in place perfectly well, but that's a minor thing considering all of the relief they are providing me.

Product Review 

I love the scent of Garnier's Sleek & Shine Shampoo and Conditioner.  I'm partial to products that smell great while using them and then linger just a little bit, a light scent, nothing over heavy or overly obvious.

This product helped to create a smooth look to my hairstyle and provided the extra shine I needed to battle some of the dullness.  I also color my hair and this didn't strip away the color any faster than it normally fades out and helped to keep the softness and the shine in.  I will definitely keep using this product!

Review: LARABAR Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip

LARABAR Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip

Product Information from Larabar
Everyone’s favorite flavor combination - peanut butter and chocolate come together for "WOW!" inducing deliciousness. But this bar is also nutritious. This bar has 15% DV Fiber and the peanuts are a good source of protein. Add simple, 4-ingredient Fair Trade Certified chocolate chips and you have one outstanding gluten-free treat.
Ingredients:
• dates
• peanuts
• Fair Trade™ chocolate chips
• salt

Review
I haven't tried a Larabar before, but it tasted pretty good. It is on par with the taste of some other protein bars I've had...probably better since it doesn't have the fake manufactured sweetness that other bars have. The only thing that pushes me away from it is the amount of calories in one bar. This is definitely a meal replacement bar for me, not a snack bar because of the amount of calories.  Even then it is higher in calories than some other meal replacement bars that I have tried.  The best part about a Larabar, any Larabar, would be the ingredient list.  I know what every ingredient is, I can pronounce them.  No added unnecessary things such as coloring or preservatives.  This is a big bonus as to why I would buy them and feel safer eating a Larabar in comparison to those other meal replacement bars.

Review
I haven't used press-on nails in ages and now I remember why. Yes, they were super easy to use. But most of the sizes in this container were too big for my fingers so I looked like I had a ghetto-fabulous manicure. I wouldn't have ever picked this color (Joy Ride, a fuchsia pink), but I gave the nails a try anyways. They were really uncomfortable and tight feeling on my fingers, I couldn't handle it for very long. I had no success peeling them off, so I'm inclined to believe that they will stay stuck on and last for a good while. Once I put the nails into nail polish remover, they came off in a few seconds.

Check out the website for Impress Manicure to see all of the colors and designs available.
