BzzCampaign: UNREAL Candy 54

I received some news about being able to try out some free candy from UNREAL candy a couple weeks ago. You're probably wondering how did I get the chance to try the candy out for free? Well I have been a part of BzzAgent for about 1 year now. With BzzAgent you will receive surveys to match you up with products to try out for the company and once you try out the product you express your opinions toward the product. I received my BzzAgent kit for the UNREAL candy about a week ago. In my kit I just got a coupon to purchase one UNREAL candy of my choice for free and also a few coupons with a Buy one get one FREE deal. I was able to find the candy at my local Walgreens. I decided to try out the UNREAL 54 which is candy coated chocolates with peanuts, which is similar to Peanut M&Ms, they also have them without peanuts. The UNREAL candy claims to have no artificial, no corn syrup, and no hydrogenated oils. Once I tasted the candy I could tell that I did not quite enjoy them as much as I enjoy Peanut M&Ms (which is my favorite). The chocolate coating tasted very like it was very low quality chocolate and it wasn't smooth they I feel chocolate should be when melting in your mouth. The peanuts also tasted like they were raw and they didn't have that roasted, nutty flavor that you expect with peanuts. Another thing I noticed is the outside color of the candy, the colors seem very dull looking, not as vibrant as someone would think. The candy and not very appealing to my eyes and along with the taste I couldn't even finish the small bag of candy! The packaging of the candy is okay, nothing spectacular, if anything it looks pretty cheap with the shiny packaging. I just personally did not like them, I may try out some other UNREAL candies in the future but I'm not sure! I have some more of the Buy One get One Free coupons if anyone may want to try the candy out, I will be more than happy to send you some!

BzzCampaign: BIC Soleil Savvy

BzzAgent is a website that I've been a part of for a couple of months now and I am very grateful to be a part of this campaign! BzzAgent is kind enough to allow me to be a part of the BIC Soleil Savvy campaign where I will receive a free sample of the product. I am SOOO excited to have received another invitation to join another BzzCampaign! I am constantly purchasing razors trying to find the perfect one! Hopefully the BIC Soleil Savvy razors are going to be great for shaving my legs, by getting a closer shave. Once I receive my BzzKit I will have a review on my   thoughts when I first open the package, and also a review once I try out the razor. I will also post pictures so that you can see everything that I receive in the BzzKit!. Check back soon for an update! Hopefully my package comes in soon.



BzzCampaign: Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Insoles

So I recently received my BzzKit for the Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Insoles. I haven't been able to test them out yet but I would like to share what I received in the kit. First I got the insoles (of course), then you also get (8) $5 off coupons to give to friends and family, and also a pamphlet with more information about the product that we received. You also get a letter stating everything that is inside of your BzzKit. My first thoughts about the insoles are that I'm glad that the insoles have a guide in which you can cut so that the insoles fit right into you your shoe. I feel that without that guide you will be more likely to cut off too much of the insole and then you're left with an insole that does not fit correctly. Another thing that I really like about the Kit is that you receive (8) $5 coupons to give out to family and friends. It gives others the opportunity to test out the product without having to dish out the complete cost of the product. I haven't been able to personally test out the product myself but I gave one of my coupons to my boyfriend, because he is constantly on his feet at work, and he has been able to test them out. His opinion is that he did notice a difference when the Dr. Scholl's insoles were first placed into his work boots. (He did purchase the Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Insoles for Work) After a few days he says that they ended up feeling like normal and doesn't notice much of the cushion from the insoles. So that is a down fall so far, hopefully this will not be the case when I try out my insoles. I will update my blog once I am able to truly test out the insoles and I will my opinion on the Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Insoles. Here are some pictures of what I received:

Viva Glam Nicki Minaj!!!

I just got my new Viva Glam Nicki Lipstick in the mail today and I am sooooo excited!!! I am so happy that I don't have to rush to the MAC counters on Thursday and try to beat the crowd! I'm sure that this is going to be sold out when it's available at stores and online. I know you are probably wondering how did I get this lipstick before it even comes out? YES, I did pay for this item with my OWN money and I am NOT sponsored! I was able to get a this lipstick because one day I was searching for more information about when the product came out because I was confused on when actually  came out because some sources said it would come out on February 9th and others February 15th. I did some research and I came upon MAC's website and they asked for your email address and by submitting your email you would receive a notification on when the product would be available. Well I submitted my email and I soon received an email saying that with my special code I could order this lipstick early! Each person that received this email had a personal code so you couldn't share the code. Also they only allowed you to purchase one Viva Glam Nicki lipstick. When I first got this email I was jumping up and down with joy! I will post pictures of the lipstick with swatches. I think that it is a beautiful color, yes it is pretty bold but I love it! I hope that I have the guts to actually wear it! If you purchase the lipstick let me know how you like it and how you like to wear it!

My Diet Experience

So I have been on a diet since the beginning of January! I've been doing really well but recently it has been getting really tough! Since being on this diet I have really changed the way and the things that I eat, I've been eating much healthier, controlling my portions, and also making sure that I eat snacks throughout the day. I've also been going to the gym 3-4 times a week. When I hit the gym I typically focus on cardio, I usually go on the elliptical for about 15-20 minutes then I would go on the treadmill for about 35-45 minutes. I've been sticking to this routine for a while and it hasn't been too bad but recently I have been craving the food that I would typically eat! Oh the temptations! But so far I have been able to stay away, hopefully I can stay on the right track! **Fingers Crossed!!**

BzzAgent

I just recently found out about this website called BzzAgent. All you have to do is take surveys that they give you and eventually they ask you to join a campaign. Some of the campaigns give you chance to try out their products! The reason why you have to take surveys are because they want to help match you up with a campaign that you would suit your interests. I think it's pretty neat. The only thing is, is that you have to be really patient because sometimes it takes weeks for you to even receive another survey. I just recently got involved with a campaign called Smarterer. It is just a campaign where you answer questions about the website, I think that it is pretty interesting because I've actually learned a lot about BzzAgent by answering questions about the site.
I hope you enjoyed this random post!
