It is getting closer to time for our baby to arrive, so that means I am at least thinking about packing a bag to take to the hospital.  I know I need to get my things in order, but I am a bit of a procrastinator when it comes to packing.  (I think I get it from my mom, she packs morning of the trip... I am not that bad, yet!) Anyways, I asked a few friends what they thought were must have items and I got ideas like suckers, lip balm and more... One thing I didn't think of, because we have it in almost every room?  Lotion!   Yes!!!!   Being that I have worked with Vaseline for what feels like a million years now, I knew that would be the lotion of choice!   Lucky for me, they have a new (to me...

Vaseline. I had to go in a...

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation. I love lotion.  There is no denying that.  I will always have at least a couple different brands / scents at all times in the house. One - I love the smells of it.  Two - I love the way it makes my skin feel.  Three- I have a slight obsession.  I have been working with Vaseline Lotions for a while now and their products never seem to disappoint.  The latest that was sent to me was their "Intensive Care Advanced Repair" in lightly scented and fragrance free.  I actually have the lightly scented sitting on my nightstand now. I love it.  It is very light, like a milky feeling... and it seems to quickly absorb into my skin.  I normally put it on right as I get ready to go to b...

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation. With the summer in full swing, you know you have a few "must have" items you need... One for me?  Lotion...  I have been so lucky to have the chance to try out the new Intensive Care line from Vaseline.   (We really love the Vaseline brand already... if you remember, Marc is already obsessed with their spray .)   What was funny to me was that I was sent 3 bottles to see which ones I would fall in love with... and I sat them on the kitchen counter to take pictures of them... I came home and they were not there... I asked Marc and he said, he knew that we would be reviewing them and he wanted to go ahead and use them to see what his opinion was about them!  I busted out laughing... as he was...

Remember how I told you Marc was such a fan of the Vaseline Mens lotion?  Well, he was sure enough surprised when I gifted him a nice grooming kit for an early Fathers Day gift!    If you know Marc, you know that he CONSTANTLY has dry hands and is always putting lotion on his hands and feet...   Ever since he received his first Spray Lotion from Vaseline, he always has one near him.  He keeps one by the bed for when he gets ready for bed and when he wakes up.. and then he keeps another bottle in the living room for when he is just relaxing with the family!   Key Features and Benefits: •         A convenient 360° continuous spray lotion that moist...

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation. My mom could possibly have the driest hands I know.  Like sandpaper dry - but luckily I have not had that problem... I try and keep them moisturized and lucky for me, Marc is one to always be putting lotion on his hands too!  I guess it isn't that lucky for him, since he complains of dryness ALL THE TIME.  He is constantly putting lotion on and he ALWAYS packs lotion in his overnight bag.  Since I reviewed the Vaseline Spray Lotion in the past, I was given the chance to review their new Mens Line!   I was excited to do so, knowing how much Marc uses lotion.   Equally as excited was Marc!  He was quick to say "Oh, Thank you!"  and immediately had to try it out.  How about h...

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation. Being a redhead, I burn so easily.  During the summer, I do use more lotions than other times, as my skin tries to soaks up all the extra moisture it can.  I was recently sent a new product from Vaseline.  It was the Spray and Go Total Moisture.   I will tell you, if I was buying in the store, I probably would have went for the Aloe one, but after trying the Total Moisture, I know that this one works great and I will be purchasing it again and again!   The Spray and Go comes in the different lotions: Total Moisture - with Pure Oat Extract  Aloe Fresh - with Pure Aloe Cocoa Radiant - with Pure Cocoa Butter I have loved using it on me... and Broxton has enjoyed it on him as...

Marc works outside... I have mentioned that several times before... I have also mentioned that he shaves his head. Why am I telling you this again? I am trying to point out that yep, he has a lot of skin to keep moisturized! We were able to get a bottle of the NEW Vaseline Mens Lotion and Marc really likes it. He said that with it saying "cooling" on the bottle.. It stands up to its word. He also really likes that it moisturizes his skin without leaving an oily feeling. This is a lotion that Marc recommends... No lie, he said "It felt like it refreshed my skin." So, it must be pretty good! I am having a hard time trying to explain the scent.. It reminds me of a mens deodorant, or maybe the shower gel? I can not figure it out.. but I love it! Wearing this, you really do not need to wear cologne! Just thought I would share this with you... According to the Vaseline Men website: Men’s skin is thicker and oiler than women’s skin - that is why you need products that ...
