Perfumes and Colognes

FFR Featured Post

I’m not a huge perfume fan but I have my favorite, which is also my husband’s favorite, but it is no longer made by its manufacturer. Boo hoo. I am on my last bottle of it. It’s been nearly 20 years since I bought it, at which time I bought like four of them. Let’s just say I have used it very sparingly and for mostly special occasions.

My husband doesn’t always use cologne or aftershave. Sometimes I even have to hint for him to put some on, other times he surprises me. I’ve loved my husband’s cologne since I have known him. He uses Drakkar Noir. Sigh. I get dreamy eyed smelling it on him! (blush!)

Men's Cologne Drakkar Noir

I actually bought him some as a surprise at Christmas time since he was getting low. It was a discount fragrance and an impulse buy while grocery shopping. I’m glad I got it for him because now he can wear it more often!

Did you get any new perfume for Christmas? What is your favorite perfume or men’s cologne?

Coffee Lovers Moody Sisters Review

Coffee Lovers Moody Sisters Review

I was so excited to get a box from Moody Sisters.  They are 100% natural organic materials!  Moody Sisters must have known that I love my coffee.  I received Coffee Body Polish and Coffee Bean Lip Balm.

MS3

With the holiday’s in full swing, Moody Sisters Coffee Body Polish could not have come at a better time!  It naturally reduces the look of cellulite.  I can read and understand all the ingredients – love that!  Check it out – Demara Sugar, Coffee Infused Oil, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Vitamin E, and Essential Oils.  As you can see in the picture below the texture is grainy but, it goes on smooth.   The smell is out of this world, mixed with the warmth of the shower, it smelled like a coffee house in my shower.  When I came out of the shower my thighs were smooth, great product! MS1

 

MS2

 

The Coffee Bean Lip Balm also has minimal readable ingredients and smelled wonderful.  It applied smooth and lasted.  Coffee Bean Lip Balm also left my lips moisturized, which is a plus during the winter.

2013 Stocking Stuffer Ideas

FFR IMAGE

Christmas Stockings were one of my favorite things to open on Christmas day. We did them for several years with the children and just got out of the habit because stocking stuffers were costly having 8-10 Christmas stockings to fill. My mom use to fill them with batteries, makeup, hand lotion, lip balm, maybe a nightie or something rolled up, socks, ribbon candy, shelled nuts that we had to crack ourselves, a huge apple and orange that our hometown’s grocery store only stocked at Christmas time.

Here are my 2013 Christmas Stocking Ideas, most of them personal care products:

800razors.com Collage_

1.800Razors.com, especially for mom and dad. They shave really well. My husband thinks for a disposable razor it shaves the closest he’s ever experienced. I really like mine too. I like that we get to keep the razor and only buy replacement razor blade heads. The razors have lasted quite awhile too. I think we are both still on our first head and it’s been over a month since we received them.

2. Shaving cream to go with those razors!

3. Burt’s Bees lotion. Our oldest daughter has been using this for her dry skin and it helps a lot. When we use goat milk soap we do not even need any moisturizing lotion.

4. Bumble and Bee Organic lip balm. This lip balm has become one of our favorites! Not only do they have lots of flavors but it works!

Ningxia Red USB Thumb Drive

5. Flash Drive. On my wish list is this Ningxia Red USB thumb drive. I think it’s cool!

6. Toothbrush and toothpaste. I know our children would be very excited to each have their own tube of toothpaste and not share with a sibling! It’s the little stuff, right? Same goes for lip balm too.

FFR Goat Milk Soap Humming Bird

7. Our daughter’s handmade goat milk or cow milk soap! It comes scented or unscented and in several different molds. Not all are showing on our sales page.

FFR Kitten Stocking Stuffer Ideas

8. A kitten! An 8 week old kitten would fit perfectly in a stocking and make your child’s day! And no our kittens are not for sale. ;)

What are your top 2013 stocking stuffer ideas?

Robi Comb Review

images (3)images (2)

Head lice problem? No worries ROBI COMB can help!

 

Robi Comb is Pesticide FREE, Chemical FREE, Oil Free, and Reusable 100’s of times!

What is Robi Comb?

images (5)

From the makers of LiceGuard Robi Comb is a patented product that detects and destroys Lice on contact! Simply comb through DRY hair and when the electronic Robi Comb contacts lice, they get zapped and die!

What are the benefits?

  • Detects Lice - Just comb through dry hair
  • Destroys Lice on Contact
  • No Chemicals / Non-Toxic
  • No Mess, No Gels, No Oils
  • No Odor or Fragrance
  • Use Anywhere and Anytime on Dry Hair
  • Reusable and Economical

Remember that the Robi Comb is Safe and Effective
Parents are becoming wary of using dangerous chemical gels, oils and toxic shampoos that poison lice, because of serious health risks! These treatments use chemicals that are harmful to living things, and may cause harm to your children.

In addition, although lice can build up a resistance to pesticides used in other lice treatments, lice cannot become resistant to the Robi Comb. The Robi Comb works when chemicals shampoos fail.

VERY ECONOMICAL


The Robi Comb is also a very economical way to kill lice fast. Harsh chemical treatments and toxic shampoos cost between $9 – $15 a treatment. Most shampoos suggest between 2-4 treatments per out-break, per person. Compare that to 1 multi-use Robi Comb that can be used over and over, as often as you like. The Robi Comb can be stored and used repeatedly by the entire family!

 

Our Robi Comb review:

images (6)

We are very fortunate to have NEVER (knock on wood) experienced a lice outbreak in our house.  But let me tell you … if we ever come in contact with the little buggers ROBI COMB would be our first course of action. I am very leery of lice products that leech chemicals directly into the scalp…cannot be good right? The Robi Comb is a great alternative. It is electronic and non-invasive…just comb through the hair and zap the little buggers! Even though I use the word electronic and “zapping” the product does not hurt…at most it just tingles.

images (4) download (1)

 

I also liked that the teeth of the comb are detachable from the product so it is easily cleaned and sanitized for the next user or future uses. For heavy users or people who like to keep things separate… you can buy replacement teeth and each person in your house could have their own “teeth” that just pops into the unit…if you are so inclined (much cheaper than buying a unit for each family member).

download (2)

 

Overall this is a neat product and I am glad that a company has come out with an alternative to the harsh lice treatments that are currently on the market. I also noticed that the product is readily available at the local Walgreens or CVS…so it is SO convenient to get…no ordering online or waiting for shipments…simply go to your local store! Of course the product is available on line to our online shoppers… visit robicomb.com for their whole product line and ordering information!

Oral-B Deep Sweep TRIACTION 1000 Power Toothbrush

Faith and Family Reviews received the following product in exchange for writing a review. While we consider it a privilege to receive products to review, our reviews are our honest opinion and thoughts of the product.

Oral-B Deep Sweep TRIACTION 1000 Power Toothbrush

oral b 1_

My husband reviewed the Oral-B Deep Sweep TRIACTION 1000 Power Toothbrush and even posed for a few goofy photos. He wouldn’t keep still when I took the photos so they turned out a little blurry.

oral b 3_

At first he wasn’t too thrilled that he’d been recruited to review the Oral-B Deep Sweep TRIACTION 1000 Power Toothbrush because he didn’t think he’d like it. However, he ate his words and does like it very much. He said the brush heads are really easy to replace, at least according to him because I didn’t try replacing them for him!

oral b 2_

What he liked about this toothbrush:

  • Because it gives me power….oops, no he said just kidding to that one! (shhh…..don’t tell him I left it in my review! Ha!)
  • He likes the way it cleans the teeth
  • He said it makes his gums feel good (he’s had issues with gum disease in the past so this is a very positive one for him)
  • He said it gets the plaque off his teeth and gumline

The only thing he doesn’t like about the toothbrush is he color. He said it doesn’t say SHAZAM! Seriously, he’s a goof ball, but shhh…..don’t tell him I said that!

Two thumbs up from Robert!

OMG Nail Strips Review

Faith and Family Reviews received the following product in exchange for writing a review. While we consider it a privilege to receive free products to review, our reviews are our honest opinion and thoughts of the product.

logo

Imagine having great nails that look expensive BUT, without the appointment and expense!  OMG Nail Strips bring that to you at a low cost and it’s do it yourself at home!  Hook me up, right?

These super easy nail adhesives are so much fun with little effort.  Pick your favorite design from OMG Nail Strips; rather pick 4 of your favorite designs.  There’s a sale going on right now 4 designs for $20.00!  Tell me where you can go to get your nails done 4 times for $20.00?  Not where I live.

OMG 1

OMG Nail Strips Review

They come in a strip with 12 sized strips.  You need to make sure your nails are clean, apply a small amount of hand lotion.  Wipe the excess and start applying the nail wraps.  File the edges and you are ready to go!  Yes, it’s that easy.

OMG 2

I wore them out to a picnic and one of my friends asked…  “Do they really last?’”  My answer was yes.  After I applied OMG Nail Strips, I peeled and canned tomatoes.  The strips lasted through the scald, cold bath and peeling tomatoes.

OMG 3

The strips last up to 10 days and come off very easy and there’s no drying time.  For a mom & wife on the go these are great and very fun!

Smiley360 – Just For Men Review

I received this product for free from Smiley360 in exchange for my honest review. You can join Smiley360 here!

I have a great husband!  He lets me “test” anything on him.  The most recent item is Just For Men Mustache & Beard.  It’s takes only 5 minutes and the gray is gone!

Just For Men Review

The box contains rubber gloves, mixing tray, brush, Just For Men Color Base, & Just For Me Natural Color Developer.  You’ll need a few additional items found around your house, a timer, old shirt, old towels, and shampoo. I HIGHLY recommend the old towel and old shirt, they will get color on them.  I got color on my arm and it stayed there for a few days, so wear the gloves too!

JFM 4

It’s very simple squeeze the same amount of Color Base and Natural Color Developer in your mixing tray using your brush.  Make sure they are blended fully then using the brush to color onto your dry beard / mustache. Wait for 5 minutes, then rinse until the water runs clear. Then wash facial hair with shampoo not bar soap.

Here’s the Before and After –

JFM 3

jfm 6

It took the gray out and he looks younger.

Just For Men comes in 10 different shades for all hair types.  Just For Men products are available at most drug, grocery, and big box stores.
