Upopby Padded Bikini Set


This is what it was suppose to look like...

And this is what it actually looked like...


I wanted to love this swimsuit so bad but I advise every one to take your exact measurements and check the size chart that is listed and not just wing it and assume it's going to fit because it's the size you always get. 

I am small chested (B cup) but have curvy hips and a butt. The top was way to big and saggy in the front as you can see but inch wise it fit perfectly around my body. The bottoms were way too small. So small I didn't want to take a pic of them. They fit well in the front but when I turned around a whole lot of cheek was hanging out. 

Otherwise the material is good and it also comes with padding that can be removed in the top which is always a plus for a small chested person like me. 

By the way I got a large and normally wear a size 10 in jeans or large in yoga pants!

A Horrible Razor Experience

UGH, MY NIGHTMARE

So I finally decided not to be a broke bitch and actually buy a pricier razor than my Schick Disposables. It's one of those purchases you always put off because you're afraid of the unknown aka wasting your money. Well, needless to say, my worst leg shaving fears came true. My experience was so horrible I actually felt the need to blog about a damn razor!

Meet Schick Hydro Silk

Schick Hydro Silk


He's a tricky little fellow. You see, I chose to buy him because he was the more expensive version of what I currently use. My cheap Schick razors actually work pretty well but have a couple tiny flaws that I thought their big brother would probably fix.

I get him in the shower and apply my shaving cream as usual. I begin to shave with him and the first thing I noticed was the only positive thing I can say about this damn thing. He felt so buttery smooth against my leg as I shaved. Yes buttery was the exact word that came to my mind in that moment. I seriously considered I didn't need shaving cream to use this thing.

Then I rinsed my leg off...

It burned REALLY EFFIN BAD!

Now I wanted a razor that shaved close to the skin but not one that shaved so close that my shins and knees felt like they were on fire! Before you all judge me, I did exfoliate my legs the day before with a coconut scrub and I use lotion everyday!

But wait, there's more...

I decided to continue to my other areas just out of curiosity and because I done threw my old razor away. Let me just tell you, the thing was not made to shave in the downstairs area. The head of the razor was way to big to shave down there and had me in fear I was going to cut myself. Needless to say, I finished that routine half assed.

The last attempt to do this razor any justice was my arm pits. This is probably the thickest hair on my body and usually the most stubborn to completely remove. I said to myself, "Well this razor has like 6 blades on it, so it's got to be the best razor I will ever use to remove my thick dark under arm stubble."

WRONG

It didn't do any better than a razor with 3 or 4 blades. Like c'mon, are you for real? I thought that is why there were more blades. I thought this is what I was spending my hard earned dollars on. I couldn't even tell my boyfriend because I didn't want to hear I told you so!
Lesson of the story, don't bitch about having to buy the cheap-o's.

P.S. Baby you were right ;)

Baby Lilly's First Halloween Costume




I decided against buying a cliche costume this year. The thought of shelling out $50 for something she will only wear once just didn’t sit right with me. Plus, I just wanted it to be simple and cute.

The package came vacuumed seal which was nice because that is rare a seller goes that far to ensure your clothing is protected when you buy online. 

The onesie can also be used more than once and was made with great quality material. This was a big reason I chose to buy it. The headband was also amazing and super stretchy and durable. The bow was secured well and didn't pop off even after all her tugging. The tutu was good. Not the best I’ve seen but got the job done for a toddlers costume and was durable as well. I did have to sit there and separate all the pieces on the tutu which I am assuming is because of the vacuum seal smooshing the mesh together. This is the only reason I rated this outfit a 4 instead of a 5. I do wish it had come with come little leggings or leg warmers.

This seller also has other Halloween outfits you can buy for babies and toddlers. They also have clothing for other holidays and seasons like Christmas. They are super affordable, high quality, and offer fast shipping options on Amazon Prime.

Happy Halloween 2016


Happy Halloween Everyone!


It's my favorite time of year again and Lilly's first Halloween!
I was to lazy to dress up this year or put together a costume but my baby Lilly is going to steal the show anyways in her dark ballerina costume!

Did you get our sister sites monthly newsletter this morning? If not go sign up now for next months newsletter at To Give And Get

In the next few weeks, I am going to be revamping this site and To Give And Get.
Much like my hair, I feel the need to change with the seasons. 
Everything you know and love will stay the same around here but the look will change as well as some of the writing style.
It was recently revealed to me by my sneaky boyfriend that I haven't been true to myself and blogging the way I actually speak. I feel like I have been selling you all short on my personality and who I am. 

Anyways, I hope everyone stays safe, has fun, and gets the bejeezus scared out of them ;)

Orgain Organic Plant Based Protein Powder - Sweet Vanilla Bean




This protein shake is pretty good compared to other powder protein mixes I have tried. I mixed it in a Ninja blender with water. For the sample size I got it said to only mix with 4 oz of water for the whole package which I thought was not enough so I used 8 ounces of bottled water because I actually wanted to drink it not just taste it. 

On the plus side, it was not gritty at all and blended really smoothly. I had the vanilla flavor and it tasted really good and just the right sweet for an organic mix. 

The only concern I had was after I mixed it and poured it in a glass there was a large amount of froth or foam at the top which didn't taste good and didn't settle much while drinking. Not sure if it's because I used more water than suggested.

(I received this product as a sample from Influesnter. All opinions are of my own.)

Mondaynoon Lucky Four Leaf Clover Pendant Necklace




I am so happy this necklace came just as the description said it would. 

The actual necklace and the product picture match perfectly. It is so shiny and sparkly and very true blue in color. The chain is adjustable and allows you to get the perfect length for anyone's neck. The pendant is a tad bit bigger then I thought it would be but not overpowering big. I would consider it a medium sized pendant. 

It lays really well against your chest and is not too bulky. Sometimes the necklace kinks a little when your being active but it easily unkinks and the chain is very strong in comparison to some other necklace chains out there. 

I will for sure be checking out all the other jewelry from this company because this is a nice high quality made necklace!


Ecvtop 120 Neutral and Warm Color Eye Shadow Palette




This eye shadow palette costs $18.99 and I was very pissed that it was a waste of money. 

The colors in the palette are very beautiful and I was so excited to have so many neutral warm colors to use in one kit. I like to keep my makeup natural and anything to save space in my home, when it comes to make up, is wonderful. 

I was so disappointed when this arrived because A LOT of them were broken inside even though the delivery box was not damaged and the palette was protected by another box and bubble wrap.
This leads me to believe it was probably broken before it left the warehouse.

I returned it and got my money back with no hassles. 
I didn't even bother to unwrap the plastic wrap to try the actual product because I didn't want it to spill everywhere or risk being accused of possibly doing this myself and not getting a refund.

Will not be purchasing any more makeup products from this company. This product would have for sure been worth the money if it would have arrived in perfect condition and I probably would be raving about it right now!
