Bella & Bear Reviews

I received "The Pluckers"Tweezers Set and the "Brush On You" Detangling Hair Brush & Comb Set by Bella and Bear for free in exchange for honest unbiased review of the product. 

First of all, I would like to say how professional this company is. A little while back the company provided a promo code for a set of people to purchase and review the product but someone leaked the promo code on social media and as you would have guessed it, hundreds of orders were placed. The company was forced to cancel all orders and approved bloggers had to wait additional time to review the product. As a special thank you for our patience the company allowed us to review the detangling brush and comb set also. This was very generous of them and for that I thank them! 

These products are amazing. The design on them is very chic and sophisticated and the products work well. The tweezers come in a beautfiul little case and include the Slant Tweezers, Pointed Tweezers and Flat Tweezers. These tweezers are perfect for Ingrown Hairs, Eyebrows, Chin Hair, or any other place you can think of and are even great for removing splinters! I l absolutely love that this set includes three different shaped tweezers because this ensures that it will cover all my needs. My favorite tweezers are the slanted tweezers! I find that I can pluck my hairs easily and it doesn't pinch my skin. The pointed tweezers are perfect for stubborn ingrown hairs which unfortunately I am prone to and I find that the flat tweezers are good for plucking hairs in general. These tweezers make a great stocking stuffer.
The brush and comb set is AMAZING!!! No lie, I am in love! I have never encountered a brush that works well with my hair. I have really curly hair and if I put any kind of brush on it it will instantly turn puffy and/or frizzy! Trust me curls and brushes are not friends; that it until now. I was a bit skeptical to brush my hair so naturally I tried out the comb first and I loved it. It didn't pull my hair and it made my curls bouncy. Sure there was hair on the comb but my hair falls out a little everyday so that was expected. The next day I  reluctantly tried the brush and was surprised when it worked beautfiully against my hair. In fact, I dare to say that I think I love the brush more than the comb! The brush detangled my hair and also made my curls bouncy and even defined them. I loved the way it left my hair feeling and looking that I locked the look with some hair spray to keep the look lasting all day! This set is wonderful and I truly encourage you to try it. You will not regret it; with the cutest designs ever and great customer service you really can't go wrong! 
Before I started combing my hair 
Detangles flawlessly!
How the comb left my hair looking :)  
Before I brushed my hair 
Really detangles hair without the pain!

Erase by Luxurience Review

I received this Erase by Luxurience Microdermabrasion Scrub in exchange for my honest unbiased review of the product. 
Erase is a new microdermabrasion scrub sold exclusively on Amazon. It is a hypo-allergenic skin rejuvenating scrub using the same microdermabrasion process as expensive spa treatments, which helps to stimulate collagen production to make you look younger. It illuminates dull skin, lightens skin discolorations & reduces pore size for more radiant looking skin. No one has time to go to the spa all the time and more so spend all their money on one spa treatment, because let's face it, to get good quality spa treatments requires you to dish out most of your money. Not anymore though because Luxurience is making its point to bring the spa to you at a low cost. 

 I love that this product is made in the USA and is FDA certified. There are not too many products that are made in the USA anymore which is sad so this makes me happy to learn that this product was made here. According to the company, this scrub exfoliates dead skin cells, unclogs pores, eliminates blackheads while also diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkle, but all while being super gentle to your skin. This means that if you have sensitive skin you will be able to enjoy this product. To amplify the effects of this scrub they recommend using their anti-aging moisturizer afterwards. The company has provided me with a free sample that came with my order. When these two products are used together they provide an amazing effect and leave my skin feeling super soft and pampered. I do not own a large bottle of their moisturizer but am considering purchasing one although a little goes a long way so the sample might last me a while. 

Application is simple; after wetting my face I applied a small amount of the scrub onto my face in a circular motion and left it on for the suggested time frame which was 2 minutes and then I washed it off with a damp cloth. The microbeads in the scrub were super soft against my face yet I noticed a clean surface after I washed it off so they must've worked and the scrub does not have an offensive smell to it. It is very gentle yet effective. Once my face was dry I felt that it became very soft! I absolutely love products that work instantly! For best results it is recommended to use the scrub 2-3x's a week. I use it on the start and end of the week to make it easy for me to remember. I highly recommend this product to everyone as this is not only a product for women; men deserve to be pampered too! 
As a special bonus for my followers the company has generated a special promotion for you. You can use the code ERASE430 for 30% off of Erase. Just click on the link http://gizmotrk.com/erase-promo and it will send you straight to Amazon so you can purchase the product. The code would discount $7.49 off the already low price of $24.95 making your total $17.46!! Ladies and gents, you should definitely take advantage of this deal! 

Here is what the company has to say about the product:

  • Your radiant, glowing skin is waiting to be revealed! Our proprietary rejuvenating microdermabrasion cream contains the same crystals as spa treatments at a fraction of the cost without machinery - in the comfort of your home!
  • Our rich, non-greasy emollient exfoliates dead skin cells, unclogs pores, eliminates blackheads while diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Renew your skin with a scrub that removes impurities, improves skin tone, texture and elasticity while stimulating new skin cell regeneration, giving you the smooth skin your friends will be jealous of!
  • Enjoy the healthy glow the sun gives you but hate the aging sun damage that comes with it? Our powerful yet safe and effective exfoliator with continual use will help reduce sun damage, acne scarring, lighten skin discoloration and age spots.
  • Reveal your skin's irresistible radiance with the rest of the Luxurience anti-aging products for sensational, healthy skin that will have your skin turning heads! 100% No Questions Asked Guarantee!
Our Premium Microdermabrasion Scrub can help you realize more vibrant, younger looking skin by:

Foxbrim's Hyaluronic Acid Serum Review


I received Foxbrim's Hyaluronic Acid Serum in exchange for my honest unbiased review of the product. 
I've been using this serum for a while now and I love the way it makes my skin feel. Makes it feel young (I mean, granted, I'm only 23, but at my age I'm only growing older not younger), soft and beautiful! It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling hydrated. It is not sticky to your face at all when you apply it. Like I said, it absorbs pretty quickly leaving you with the softest of soft face! This serum also leaves your skin feeling and looking more even and gives you a perfect glow. I absolutely love the smell of this serum; it is one of my favorite qualities of this serum.  It has a rose petal smell to it which I absolutely adore! Just smelling it makes me feel super relaxed and after I apply it to my face I feel a calmness while reaping the benefits of the hyaluronic serum. This serum is great too because it has a perfect consistency. If and when you buy this, you will notice that this serum is thick and has value to what you paid for; it is not watery at all! 
You may also want to take note of the ingredients involved in making this serum (Provided in this review down below). They are safe ingredients so you can rest assured you are not harming your face. The company claims that this product is ABSOLUTELY PURE: For you that means NO parabens, NO additives, NO fillers. Not Tested on Animals. Nothing you don't want and everything you need! Even more so, Foxbrim's Hyaluronic Acid Serum promises a fresher, brighter complexion and the offer a RISK FREE MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. If you aren't 100% satisfied with your results they will provide you a full refund. You really have nothing to lose. Take advantage of their sweet deal. Their serum was originally priced at $59.99 but has been heavily reduced at $16.69 for a 1 oz/30mL bottle and can be found exclusively on Amazon. 

Here is what the company has to say about the product:

Zep Cleaning Like A Pro Review

I am part of the Crowdtap Community and was accepted into the Clean Like A Pro Zep Sampling event and was given things to try for fee. Here is what I got. 
Clean Like A Pro Zep Sampling:
5 SAMPLE SIZES TOTAL, INCLUDING:
  • Zep Quick Clean Disinfectant (2)
  • Zep All-Around Oxy Cleaner and Degreaser (3)

The All-Around Oxy Cleaner & Degreaser is a Perfect Stain Remover- This is truly an amazing product!! I absolutely love it. It takes out stains from grime to paint on clothes and cleans sticky surfaces and more just perfectly! I love that it was able to save my jacket from paint. I accidentally got paint on my Colombia jacket while my boyfriend was painting the kitchen and was so upset. The jacket is fairly new and I couldn't believe that I had gotten paint on it! My boyfriend began the "I told you you were going to get paint on it but you kept saying you'll be careful" speech. I didn't want to hear it. Instead I wanted to get the stain out! I had received the Zep sampling kit a few days earlier and thought why not? I honestly did not do this intentionally. I mean, I'm all about promoting a company if I like their products but to get paint on my jacket intentionally for a product's sake is ridiculous! What if the product didn't work? But was so relieved when Zep was able to handle the job and restore my jacket! I mean, Zep really pulled through for me and in the best way possible! I spritzed the areas that I had gotten paint on let it sit for a few minutes and then vigorously scrubbed with a simple paper towel and the paint began to melt off. I don't think I had to scrub so hard to get the paint off but the fact that there was paint on my jacket on the first place set in the panic LOL. This product is fantastic!! It is truly a keeper and I truly recommend it!

All-Around Oxy Cleaner & Degreaser
Versatile multipurpose cleaner with Oxy action to tackle tough stains and Degreasing action to break up grime. Perfect for daily use in kitchens, bathrooms, and throughout the home, yet safe on delicate materials such as upholstery and granite. Great on the following stains: Red wine, blood, fruit juice, food stains, urine stains & dirt. No harsh fumes!

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
  • Quickly cleans virtually any hard or soft surface
  • Powers out stains & grease
  • Safe on granite, upholstery and more
  • No harsh fumes
See more at: Zep's website

I also tried the Quick Clean Disinfectant and I love it also! It left my bathroom sparkling clean and I loved that. I loved that all I had to do was spray down the surfaces I needed clean and then with a wipe of a towel the surfaces were clean. It left a shiny appearance and left the bathroom smelling fresh. The best part is that when you clean your house with this disinfectant, it kills 99.9% of bacteria in just 5 seconds which is just amazing! Everyone loves to protect their family and have a clean home and Zep helps you with this great product. It isn't just great for the bathroom though. Use it for the kitchen sink, or anywhere else in the house you want to keep germ free. I especially love to spray the door handles around the house because to me those are the germiest and with flu season coming around you can never have too much of this stuff so stock up! Definitely another great product by Zep! 

Quick Clean Disinfectant
Clean, Disinfect, & Deodorize, in one easy step. Quick Clean Disinfectant Kills 99.9% of bacteria in just 5 seconds*. Additionally, Quick Clean kills Rhinovirus, causative agent of the common cold.

I had a great time sampling new products and after this mission I definitely have a positive perception of this brand. Only after joining Crowdtap had I started to see Zep products in Home Depot and Lowe's. They were probably always there and I had never noticed them but now I see this brand everywhere and I can honestly say that I will definitely be buying these products once my samples run out. I had a fun and positive experience and maybe you will too after trying them out!

Foxbrim Youthful Radiance Eye Cream Review

I received the Youthful Radiance Eye Cream in exchange for my honest unbiased review of the product. 
Immediately after applying the cream under my eyes I could tell that it was working. First off, I felt a cooling sensation under my eyes. Almost as if the cream was telling me it was doing its job. I noticed a change. Before application I felt around my eyes and they were slightly puffy and afterward once dried I felt them again and felt a dramatic change. My under eyes were completely flat! I mean, it was in a matter of minutes that this occurred and it was my first application of the product! amazing!! 


I only have lipstick on; no other makeup on my face (Just the eye cream)
I've been using the eye cream for some time now and while I am not noticing any dramatic change with my dark circles, I can honestly say that the eye cream works beautifully for reducing the puffiness under my eyes. After application of the product my eyes look more alive and feel soft.

This eye cream moisturizes my eyes while also making them look alert and healthy. I love that application is easy and a breeze. The pump allows for easy application and allows you to get just the right amount of product you need for your eyes. I also love that this eye cream is safe enough to wear under makeup. It can be used in the morning or at night and can be used as a facial moisturizer. 

The company claims that this cream is scientifically formulated to effectively address all anti-aging and eye care concerns and I absolutely love that. These concerns include dark circles, puffiness, fine lines and wrinkles and it is also proven to lessen swelling, add luminosity and smooth wrinkles under eyes. I am not currently concerned with wrinkles but dark circles and puffiness are major concerns of mine. I love that this eye cream takes care of my concerns and makes me look beautiful. I am confident that after more time of using this product that my dark circles will diminish (after all, all things don't work overnight). I definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for an eye cream to solve their eye issues as mentioned above. 


Also, what is awesome about this product is that they use all natural and organic ingredients in their product. 


Key Ingredients include:
+ Vitamin C & E
+ Green Tea
+ MSM
+ CoQ10
+ Grapeseed Oil
+ Tamanu Oil


Comes in two sizes: 15mL (pictured) costs $14.99, 30mL costs $20.99; both available through Amazon Click the picture if you would like to purchase one or know more about the product 

Here is what the company has to say about the product:

  • THE COMPLETE ANTI-AGING & EYE CARE SOLUTION: Scientifically formulated to effectively address all anti-aging and eye care concerns. This includes Dark Circles, Puffiness, Fine Lines and Wrinkles. Proven to lessen swelling, add luminosity and smooth wrinkles under eyes. Our customers rave about how quickly they've seen results - in days not weeks!

Hidden Valley Ranch Feast Review

I am part of the Crowdtap Community and was accepted into the 2nd Annual Hidden Valley® Ranch Feast Hosted Party event and was given things to try for free. When people think of Hidden Valley® Original Ranch®, most usually think of salads and salad dressing, but Hidden Valley® Ranch is so much more than that! It is an easy way to put a twist on mealtime, with delicious dishes that everyone will love. I was like most people and never thought I could make a delicious meal out of Ranch or Hidden Valley's® seasoning mix but I was SO wrong! 

On Crowdtap it says that provided with the kit are:
1 Bottle of Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing
1 Dip Clip (for you)
5 Dip Clip (for guests)
3 Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing & Seasoning Mix (for you to make 3 recipes)
3 Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing & Seasoning Mix

Here's what I actually got:
1 Bottle of Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing
1 Dip Clip (for me)
10 Dip Clip (for guests)
13 Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing & Seasoning Mix
10 Recipe cards (front in English and back in Spanish)
11 Save $1.00 on any (1) Hidden Valley® Dry Dressing or Dips Mix coupons to share with guests 
1 Size large Team Ranch T-shirt (for me)

I think I made out pretty good if you ask me! ^_^ 

I was to host a party and share recipe tips and ideas, and enjoy a variety of dishes made with Hidden Valley products. Sounded good to me except one problem. My guests were no shows!! (I will not mention names but you know who you are). I understand the weather was icky as it tends to get here in Philadelphia but a heads up would have been nice. Nonetheless my family enjoyed the recipes I prepared for them. I turned it into a family gathering party and we still enjoyed ourselves and completed the activities outlined by the mission from Hidden Valley® via Crowdtap. 

I made three recipes all with the Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing & Seasoning Mixes. I made Grilled Ranch Chicken with Corn Salsa, Original Ranch® Roasted potatoes and Hidden Valley® Glazed Baby Carrots. I prepared the meals as instructed per the recipes. I did not want to alter the recipes because I wanted to taste for myself how good these were going to turn out. Later I can alter the recipes or make something else delicious but for now I stuck to what was in front of me. I went to Walmart and bought the rest of the items I needed for the recipes and started to cook. (I am in no way affiliated with Walmart, it was just a convenient place to go to get the items I needed). The recipes were very simple to follow (I did not break a sweat!). It was too cold for my liking to grill outside so I turned on my indoor grill. I put the potatoes in the oven for about 40 minutes at 450 degrees and proceeded to my carrots which only took about 5 minutes to cook. I, however, left them on just a little longer on low heat (glad I did because the Ranch mix began to get thick like a gravy). As the carrots were heating up I put the chicken on the grill and discarded any remaining marinade that was left over. I grilled the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side making sure that I didn't touch the chicken during this time so they could achieve the grill marks on them ^_^
Started the chicken marinade and let stand for 30 minutes or so
Next I worked on the potatoes and put them in the oven for about 40 minutes in a 450 degree oven 
Then I put the carrots in the pan and let on low  stirring occasionally while  I finished the chicken  
Put the chicken on the indoor grill for 5-7 minutes each side
Making sure to leave alone during that time so the chicken achieves the grill marks
Didn't forget about the Corn Salsa which took less than 5 minutes to prepare (Super easy!)
It was now time to eat. Everyone served themselves and we sat down to eat. Everything was so delicious! I am a great cook (Not to brag or anything; you know, we are all biased on our cooking and think we are the best LOL), but really the food turned out terrific!
 It was all so delicious and the food did not taste similar. I thought it would because all the recipes called for a packet of Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing & Seasoning Mix. Thankfully though, all the recipes had their distinct taste and it all turned out for the best. One of my favorites was the Corn Salsa. It was so refreshing to have a packet of Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing & Seasoning Mix without it tasting overwhelming. It was just the right amount of kick of flavor and it went so well with the chicken. I can see myself making this salsa on a regular basis for my other recipe favorites. Very tasty! After we ate we completed the activities assigned to this party. 

Activity #1:
Poll your guests on their knowledge and love for Ranch. 
1. Have they ever used a Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® product in a recipe before?
2. Did they like the the Hidden Valley® dishes served today? 
3. Will they purchase Hidden Vakkey® products in the future?

1. No one in my household has ever used Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® in any recipe ever. They weren't even aware that this was possible. (LOL)
2. They liked all the recipes I had prepared for them. They especially liked that although I made all three recipes with the packets, that all the recipes tasted different. They were afraid that all the food was going to taste the same, but thankfully it didn't. They especially liked that the corn salsa had a dry packet in it and they liked the taste it yielded. All of the food was delicious and spectacular if I may add.  
3. They are definitely open to buying Hidden Valley® products in the future. In fact I told them that they could probably purchase the products in Walmart (which we like to frequent; I remember seeing these ingredients there) and they were happy about that. 

Activity #2:
Using the Ranch dishes you've shared ad tasted as inspiration, have a group write down as many recipes/foods they can think of that will be even more delicious with a zest of Ranch. After the allotted time (we suggest 60 seconds), share your ideas (there's no idea too whacky!) and vote on the top ten. 

Here is what we came up with as out top 10 delicious dishes with Ranch:
1. Lasagna 
2. Chicken Parmesan 
3. Ranch Potato Salad
4. Cheese burgers (incorporate the Ranch in the meat mix)
5. Oven cooked French fries (add the mix with the fries and pop into oven and add cheese) YUM!
6. Popcorn (incorporate the mix in the popcorn and drizzle with favorite topping such as salt, butter, honey, etc.
7. Creamy Ranch Mashed Potatoes 
8. Ranch Taco Dip 
9. Ranch Mac & Cheese
10. Ranch Pasta Salad

I am convinced that I will continue to make more yummy recipes with Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing & Seasoning Mixes. the mixes added great taste and depth to my food. It is definitely worth trying at least once. Thank you Crowdtap and Hidden Valley®  for this great experience! We had a blast!

Foxbrim Complete Anti-Aging Moisturizer Review

I received this Complete Anti-Aging Moisturizer in exchange for my honest unbiased review of the product. 

This is a Retinol containing moisturizer. Yes, it is an over the counter Retinol cream and you don't need a prescription from the dermatologist to obtain it. Cool right? Retinol is a form of Vitamin A, which is one of many ingredients found in various topical skin care products. It is widely used because it has many benefits toward the improvement of your skin's health. Some benefits of Retinol include clearing acne, diminishing wrinkles, lightening discolorations and imperfections, and it can even shrink your pore's size. 

I absolutely love everything about this moisturizer and the way it makes my skin feel. I love that this moisturizer is very light which helps it to sink into my skin absorbing almost instantly. After application you will feel your skin noticeably tighter; this is normal. This is the moisturizer's way of telling you it is working. I also love that it comes in a pump bottle for two reasons. One being that you won't waste product because you control how much product comes out of the bottle and two, because unlike other moisturizers where you have to dip your fingers into the product, with this product you will not run into that problem. You will not have to worry about contaminating your face or your moisturizer and can always rest assured that each application of the product is clean and free of germs and bacteria. I also love that the company states that they ONLY use 100% Natural and Organic Ingredients. No parabens or additives. Not tested on animals. Everything you've come to expect from Foxbrim.


Key Ingredients include:
- Vitamin A (1% Retinol)
- Vitamin E
- Aloe Vera
- Shea Butter
- Jojoba Oil
- Green Tea

Here are some points to remember:

If you are going to use this cream or any cream containing Retinol in it and you use it during the day you want to make sure to use SPF. The sun and Retinol don't mix and therefore can cause bad skin reactions so to avoid this use SPF coverage or simply use the product at night which is what I do. Besides, the skin regenerates at night while you're sleeping and this product will help your skin so using this at night will help you obtain all the benefits of this moisturizer. Also, it is safe to use this moisturizer under makeup so go ahead and get beautified while reaping the benefits of this moisturizer! 

Here is what the company has to say about the product:
