I Tried Lipsense Here’s What I Think

I received a sample of the below mentioned products at no cost in order to complete a review. Any opinions expressed are my own. 

You may have seen facebook friends sharing posts about Lipsense.  You might have a friend or family member that sells Lipsense.  I ignored the info for a while.  Lipstick is lipstick right?  Then a friend of mine who had been going on and on about it had a party and I joined in. I  happened to have some spending money so I bought myself a starter kit.  That’s when I changed my mind.  Not all lipsticks are created equal.

The first color I ever tried was called Brick a medium red that I used strictly for date nights.  I got the clear Glossy gloss and the remover.  Yes it took a little longer to apply the lipstick than regular lipstick because you apply in layers and let it dry.  But it lasts so much longer.  Lipsense doesn’t dry out your lips but rather can help restore lip moisture when used properly.

After I had my starter set I started trying more colors.  The most recent Lipsense color I got from Red Gate Beauty, is called Bella  It’s a beautiful everyday color.  Something I feel comfortable wearing to work.  The below picture is Bella without the Opal gloss on it yet.

I decided to try a new gloss too. I chose Opal and oh do I love it!  I find myself using it with my other Lipsense lip colors a lot because it really adds a pretty iridescent look to my lips.  It definitely helped moisturize and give a plumped look to my lips too.

Red Gate Beauty has 40 colors available and 11 different glosses. Some colors, like Bella, are in high demand and often Lipsense distributers have a hard time keeping it in stock.  Red Gate Beauty also offers free shipping!

If you’re just starting out with Lipsense I highly recommend getting the starter kit.  You get a color, a gloss, and a remover.  You really need the gloss to lock in and protect the lips.  Once you have that starter kit you can go crazy buying more colors if you like.

Need a Halloween Costume? Oriental Trading has a Nice Selection!

I received the below mentioned products at no cost in order to complete an honest review. Any opinions expressed are my own.

We have been getting out costumes from Oriental Trading for a few years now.  The selection is nice, the price is right, the customers service is friendly, and they have costumes for everyone in the family.

My youngest son thought he knew what he wanted to be for Halloween until he saw all the choices Oriental Trading had in our budget.  It took a while for him to decided but he finally decided on the boys S.W.A.T costume.

This boys’ costume came with the vest and fingerless gloves. All we have to add is black pants and a black shirt!

My daughter knew she wanted to be the pink power ranger.  They had a cute deluxe pink power ranger costume that she knew she wanted immediately.  They were both so happy with their costumes from Oriental Trading.  They had so many choices for girls’ costumes too!

The kids love their costumes. They even got into character and struck some poses for me!  Making these great costumes to keep around for dress up play.

Beat the Halloween rush and get your costumes now!  You know how it goes, closer to Halloween costumes sell out and you have to wait for shipping.  Don’t get stuck!

CUJO Business-Level Internet Security for Your Home

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.

We are definitely a connected family.  All the kids have their own Kindle, 4 of the 6 of us have smart phones, laptop, desktop, xbox live,  you name it.   One of the reasons I chose Kindles for my my kids was the ability to set limits, block certain things, etc.  But with my older boys and their smart phones it’s a little harder.

CUJO is a firewall that offers business-level security for your home.  It works on all devices in your home. It’s a cute and compact little device.

 

If you visit the CUJO site there is a video explaining set up.  If you have just a modem you only have to plug the ethernet cable it comes with right into the modem.  If you have a modem and a router or other device you do, what they call, a bridge set up. We had to set ours up in bridge set up.

Unfortunately, I made the mistake of trying to set it up around 11:00 pm at night.  I ran into trouble and the CUJO customer service was not available at that time.  After messing with it for over an hour I decided to discount and set thing up the way they were and try during the day again the next day when I could get customer service. The problem with that is it changes setting in your DNS server so when I removed it and hooked everything back up the way it was, none of our wifi devices would connect to the internet. Between my husband and I and another hour later we got it set up.  That was around 1:15 am lol.

Once it was set up though, there really wasn’t much to do.  CUJO automatically started locating devices with the CUJO app.  It quickly found my laptop, our phones, kindles, and the router.  It take up to 48 hours to find all the devices. It also located the xbox live.

The app let’s you know when someone tried to access a site that is either blocked or is known to contain malware or viruses.  You can choose whether you want to continue blocking the site or unblock it.  I had set my kids kindles so they couldn’t access “adult” sites to include gambling.  My hubby got frustrated because he couldn’t access his draft kings site for his fantasy football team so I unblocked that site lol.

– parental controls for all devices

                  – internet filter

                  – time limits

                  – social media monitoring

                  – pause internet

                  – alerts and reporting

                  – remote administration

                  – user profiles and settings

When you purchase the CUJO firewall device from Best Buy you also get the firewall subscription for as long as you have the device!
