New Pacifica Island Vanilla Fragrance Review

I love Pacifica's perfumes and I have reviewed for them before. They sent me their new scent in Island Vanilla. They also sent me a sample of my all time favorite scent Waikiki Pikake.

I am normally not a vanilla fan but I knew I would like this one. I was sent their solid perfume and it retails for $9.00.

Island Vanilla Solid Perfume

Inspired by the unique magic of Tahitian vanilla, this sensual blend sets sweet and sultry vanilla absolute, with honey-jasmine notes and a touch of fruitiness, against a deep and beautiful base of tea.

 

A modern take on the most ancient form of fragrance, Pacifica's dazzling new Solid Perfumes are made with organic soy and coconut wax and Pacifica's signature perfume blends with essential and natural oils. Delicate and sensuous in Island Vanilla, they're adorable, affordable, totally portable and perfect for layering!

The sample retails for $2.00 and it comes in the same tin this is the Waikiki Pikake scent.

Waikiki Pikake Solid Perfume - Sample

A homage to the lush wooded and flowered paradise of old world Hawaii, this hauntingly beautiful blend combines sweet Pikake - a delicate, exquisite jasmine flower native to Hawaii - with sensuous and velvety sandalwood.

From Brook

A modern take on the most ancient form of fragrance, Pacifica's dazzling new Solid Perfumes are made with organic soy and coconut wax and Pacifica's signature perfume blends with essential and natural oils. Delicate and sensuous in Waikiki Pikake, they're adorable, affordable, totally portable and perfect for layering!

Here is the difference from the full size and the sample size.







I love their products and I can not wait to try more. My family members love the Waikiki Pikake when I wear it and a few of them have bought it. I can not wait to try more products from them.

Kregel Christmas Board Book Review

I love Christmas time and I also love children's books. So this review is one of my favorites. This is coming from Kregel and I was sent 3 Christmas Board Books for review.

The first book I want to talk about is Baby Jesus by Karen Williamson and retails for $7.99.

Explore the concept of faith in an approachable way with this fantastic board book that retells the Christmas story. The colorful tabs, which feature a character or object poking out from between the pages, give children a clue to the rest of the scene and prompt them to pick a favorite. With enjoyable illustrations and child-friendly text your favorite preschooler is sure to love this new addition to the Candle tabs series.

I love the tabs and all of the animals and I really like how colorful it is. Great book!

Next is My Very Little Christmas Story by Lois Rock and retails for $4.99.

 

A colorful rhyming retelling of the Christmas Story—ideal for early learners hearing the Christmas story for the first time

This engaging retelling of the Christmas story is told in appealing rhyme with bright, playful, paper-collage illustrations. The small, chunky board book format makes this especially appealing for little hands.

I was sent a boys outfit in size 18-24 months which their size says 140.

First is the long sleeve shirt.

It is made of really soft materials and fits great.

 

Front                                                               Back

 

The pants are really cute too. They are different and like none that I have ever seen before.

 

The legs have different colors inside so you can roll them up. The waste band is stretchy and the blue look like a second lair. They are easy to pull off and on with no use of buttons or snaps and the fit is great.

 

They also have cute accessories and here is a cute set of a scarf and a matching hat for a little girl. I also believe that the sizes run a bit small as the little one shown is in 12-18 and the pants fit just right.

 

This are great products and you should check them out.

Dezign With A Z Review

If you are like me and you love to change up a room then this is a great review for you. This review is from Dezign With A Z. They have wall decals and wall stickers such as modern, animals, floral decals, kids rooms, writables. I choose to review one of their trees decals called Spring Tree. This one retails from $58-$358. The one I will show retails for $198. Everything was all on a few sheets when I received it and they even gave extra butterflies.

This decal is totally customizable. I choose the color of the tree and the leaves. You can even pick the direction you want the tree to face.
This is the room Before....

I wanted to add a tree behind the crib for a while now and I was excited to get this project started.
First we put up the tree. It wasn't easy as it wanted to stick to the paper and wasn't coming off of the paper as easy as the instructions had said it would...

You are supposed to use the pink scraper included to go over it and then it will stick to the walls....It wasn't that easy it took both of us I had to slowly peel it from the back by hand and they stick it to the wall myself.

I really like it and now to add on all of the leaves. There was no right or wrong way to add them and I decided to have them go all the way to the cornor of the wall.

And this is the finished after....

So here is the before and after side by side..

I LOVE it!! It is amazing what you can do with a little paint and a sticker. I even have extra leaf ones in case i want to add more later. Next time you want a little change in any room of the house check out Dezign With A Z!!

You can also check them out on their FACEBOOK and TWITTER.

Boba Air Review

Today's review is from Boba Family.  I was sent their newest carrier the Boba Air and it retails for $65.00 stay till the end for a coupon code.

The Boba Air is a great carrier and I was really surprised how small it was when I opened the package. It comes in its own pouch and makes a easy ft for the diaper bag or car.

100% Nylon - easy to store and keep clean

Compact, light and self=storing - just 0.7 lbs

Features sleeping hood and handy zippered pocket

Carry on front or back

For Children 15 - 45 lbs

I love all of Boba's products and this is a great carrier for the use and the price. It only comes in black right now and it is as easy to use as all of their other carriers.

 

The pouch makes as a pocket which is great for your cell phone or your keys and money I like to go on walks with it or in the stores. It is easy to put on as a front carrier and only take a few seconds.





Here are the back straps.

 It took me a little help to get her on my back I'm sure with some practice I can get really good at using it for the back. Rainie liked being on the front better but here is a back shot.

I cant say it enough how much I love Boba's products. I have tried their Organic Boba carrier and their Boba pack and I have really liked them both. For all of my followers here is a coupon code for 10% off just enter code Tryingtogogreen10 for It is valid until November 17^th
