Unisex Fragrances - Beauty Encounter Review- 2 Thumbs Up!

I was super excited to do a REVIEW on a Discount Fragrance.  I was sent the Miller Harris Figue Amere.  Love the bottle and scent!  It was listed as a UNISEX perfume so at first I was thinking it was going to smell "manish" and my hubby thought it was going to smell to "pretty" but we were both wrong. This is a product we can both can wear and not question the smell.  The best part is we can get this at a DISCOUNT. 

I wore the discount fragrance to work (as a waitress) which I don't usually do because you don't want to smell too overpowering to the customers. But I felt this fragrance was the right balance and I was right. I had both women and men ask what I was wearing because they enjoyed the scent. I had the bottle in my purse so I sprayed a couple customers and also told them the site they could get it from. I guess it is rare to find something both man and woman can wear and I think Miller Harris Figue Amere is a winner - it a big 2 Thumbs UP!

Miller Harris Figue Amere

3.4 oz Eau de Parfum Spray

Figue Amere was inspired by the bitter, ripe, green figs found on the coast of Ibiza: the curious contrast of fleshy fruit with astringent salt. Top notes of bergamot and mandarin contrast with a heart of narcissus poeticus, rose and green violet leaves on a heady base of cedar, amber and sea moss.

Nothing Gets Between Me and My ITO EN Green Tea Review

I love my coffee in the morning and my Ice Tea in the afternoon. When I got a chance to try Tea's Tea I was very excited.  I got to try two of their flavors: Blueberry Green tea and Jasmine Green tea.  I liked the Jasmine Green Tea a lot.  I drank it after a long walk and boy did it refresh me. I wanted more and looked up on their site (https://www.itoen.com/store-locator) and found a store near by that carried the tea.  The Blueberry one I shared with my daughter- she enjoyed the taste better than I did.  I'm a big Jasmine Green Tea fan so I just think the Blueberry element wasn't for me but it tasted fine.  We recommend these teas and give them 2 thumbs up.


MORE INFO From Company: Yoga + Green Tea = the perfect marriage When we realized that Beth Shaw, founder of YogaFit, was purchasing our Teas’ Tea 2Liter bottles of Jasmine Green tea by the case, and Beth always carries around a 2L Jasmine Green Tea, it was clear that we could not ask for a better brand ambassador. The holistic lifestyle of yoga including the awareness of how you care for yourself body, mind and soul - and the health benefits and wellness of Green Tea is truly in perfect alignment. “Like YogaFit, ITO EN is a leader in their category. ITO EN teas are natural, committed to health and top quality. I LOVE Ito En green tea because it is truly the only beverage that is anti aging, good for weigh management and gives me just the right amount of energy to get through my busy life. I drink it every day,” explains Beth Shaw enthusiastically, "Nothing Gets Between Me and My Ito En Jasmine Green." About the Product: Each blogger will receive a 500ml bottle of our [unsweetened] Teas' Tea Jasmine Green Tea and a bottle of our low calorie [slightly sweetened] Teas' Tea. Teas' Tea Jasmine Green Tea: Authentically brewed, naturally high in tea antioxidants, entirely unsweetened / zero calories, and containing 100% or more of daily value of vitamin C - no wonder Teas' Tea Jasmine Green Tea is Beth Shaw's daily healthy habit choice.

My Little Girl Is Growing Up

I have to watch what I write because she now reads my blog, darn!  For the past 8 years I have been her entertainment and haven't been able to do much on my own- and when I say that I mean it! I didn't mind too much but sometimes I needed a break.  The last couple weeks I actually get to go to the bathroom by myself.  What has changed~ the girl who says she doesn't like kids now has a FRIEND!

There is a girl next door that comes over to see her Granny almost everyday now and as soon as she gets here LIL MAMA is outside and playing ALL DAY.  She actually gets mad at us when we ask her to come in for dinner or come in for the night. But now I can get stuff done without having to hear "I don't have anything to do" or her picking on her brother.  I'm pretty sure he is as excited as I am with her new found freedom.

But a little part (just a lil)of me is a bit sad knowing she is growing up and entering that phase of her life that MAMA isn't a necessity.  So I don't know if I should be jumping up and down or crying.  She did tell me the other night I am her Best Friend so I least still hold that title.

BTW she LOVES when I do her hair.  So at least I can be her stylist.
