Holiday Gift Giveaway Sponsor Spotlight: Theo from Scentsy

Scentsy is known for their wickless wax and warmers. Scentsy was started in 2003 with the idea of using a light bulb to warm scented wax instead of a flame. You can read more about how Scentsy started by clicking here.

Scentsy has expanded their line to include stuffed animals. I know what you’re thinking, stuffed animals? Enter, Scentsy Buddies. Scentsy Buddies are cute little animals for children with a pocket to hold a Scent pack available in 15 scents.

Roarbert the lion Scentsy Buddy

There is a selection of these cute little guys. Think of one of these little Scentsy Buddies peeping out of your child’s, grandchild’s or niece/nephews stocking. Another great idea would be for babies. Think about getting one of these cuddly buddies with a french lavender scent pack to help the little ones sleep, or buying one with the New Born Nursery scent pack for the new mom. Another great idea, sneak one of these into you’re child’s bed christmas eve night and let them wake up to a cute surprise.

It doesn’t have to be for children though. (I’m really wanting one of these.) I’m thinking about one of these in the living room for a subtle way to add fragrance to the room.

Theo is a Scentsy consultant, and she has been so generous as to offer one of my readers a gift certificate to be able to purchase their very own Scentsy Buddy for the Holiday Gift Giveaway Hop Dec. 1-5!

Don’t wanna wait to see if you’ll win one? I don’t blame you, you can order one from Theo now: https://bewickless.scentsy.ca/Home

Udderly Smooth review and #giveaway 11/26—CLOSED

You may have seen the cute Udderly Smooth® cow spot bottle on the shelf at a store near you. It has an odd name but it’s a great product. I remember my mom having a bottle of the udder cream in the kitchen when I was younger for her “dish pan” hands. My mom also collected cow things so…

Udderly Smooth® is owned and operated by Redex Industries which is family owned and operated. They have been in business for over 30 years. Udderly Smooth® was originally made for use on dairy cows under harsh conditions. Their selection of products includes the udder cream, Shea butter foot cream, Hand and body moisturizing lotion, Extra care cream with 10% urea, chamois cream with shea butter, Odor ConQueror and their country cream. The prices on the Udderly Smooth® products are very affordable. To give you an example, a 32 fl oz bottle of the udder cream is only $8.75 on their site! Most of their products are available in several sizes as well.

I had the opportunity to review several Udderly Smooth® products. I got to try the Udder Cream, Shea Butter foot cream, and the moisturing lotion. I get terribly dry skin the winter. It’s already starting with all the dry heat. Also, washing my hands so much at work cause me to get dry and sometimes cracked skin on my hands. I immediately tried the Udder cream for my hands. It was a nice, what I would consider medium thick, cream with a light scent. The scent reminded me something of lilac. I felt instant relief on my hands.

After my usual evening shower, I tried the Udderly Smooth® Moisturizing Lotion. It’s in a generous sized 16 fl oz pump bottle. At first I was disappointed because it seemed to be pretty watery. I prefer thicker lotion as they seem to moisturize my skin better. For a thin lotion though, it did moisturize pretty well. The Moisturizing lotion also contains Vitamin E.

Then I tried the Shea Butter Foot cream. It’s in a 10 oz tub with a pump. It felt wonderful on my feet. In particular, on my dry heels.

All of the products are made in the USA as an added bonus.

You can find out more about Udderly Smooth® and look over their products on their website: www.udderlysmooth.com

Thanks Veterans!

My husband is a veteran of the Iraq War. Some of the stories I’ve heard from him are almost unreal. I can’t imagine dealing with some of the situations my husband and so many other veterans have. It’s because of our veterans that we have so much today.

My husband’s service has made him realize how important the little things are in life. He passes this wisdom over to me. His stories make me understand how lucky we really are. I don’t know that everyone knows what our veterans have done for us. I hope that maybe you’ll take a moment to thank a veteran, maybe donate to a local veterans home/hospital, or in some way honor the veterans of our great country today.
