Cetaphil Moisterzing Cream Review

I love getting new creams to try. Especially for dry skin.
When I first opened the jar and smelled it, I was happy there was no heavy scent. That meant that my husband could use it too. And if I put it on my face, my driest areas, it wouldn't irritate me.

The consistency is really thick and wonderful. If you don't like putting your finger into a jar of product, they also offer squeeze bottles. 
For this particular cream the price ranges from $8.99-$15.99 depending on size.
I read the info on their website. Tried it for a couple days on my hands, feet and face. Not to mention on my husband and daughter. My hubby has rough hands from working all night, everyday. And callouses on his feet from his boots. My daughter has no real dry skin except on her head. That's from me and I didn't use this on it cause it's in her hair. 
How did it work? Did we all like it?
Great and yes!! It didn't take away my husbands callouses on his feet but it did help make them softer and his hands less rough. He doesn't like making them too soft. It ends up making them easier to cut open or some such. I don't complain.
As for my daughter, shes already super soft. So we just stick to regular lotion. I'm hoping if it helps with my Eczema, I'll it on her scalp as well.
My hands and feet have never felt softer. I actually put away my Neutrogena hand cream for this... If you know me, that means something. As for my face, oh my goodness gracious... It feels so good! And not at all greasy. No heavy scent, no scent period. My face looks soft. No more visible dryness. You used to be able to see patches of dry skin on each side of my nose, right under my glasses. Very obvious! Now, it's smooth and looks healthy. I love it. 
Thank you Cetaphil and Influenster!!
Will be buying a bigger size as soon as I get close to running out. Or before and keep this small one in my purse! Any questions? Ask away!



I received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster, but all opinions are my own.

Happy New Year and More

It was a very busy ending of the year for all of us. So many Holidays and everyone wants to party. We didn't 'party' but we did celebrate with family. It was amazing and my daughters first year to spend with everyone. She had a blast. Now on to the new year and hopefully a better schedule. I went and bought a huge planner from Walmart, cause I'm fancy like that. I also don't want to waste $50+ on a big name one, I don't know if I'm going to use all the time. Start small and work my way up...
As for this month, my daughter is turning 4 on the 14th (So proud and sad!) and her party, with a Frozen theme, is the 16th. So again, we'll be busy but not too bad. 
After that, no more birthdays until March.
Which is also when we hope to take our annual family vacation. I have a surprise location to take my hubby and our daughter!! It's going to be so fun. 
Okay, on to today and what I'm going to be doing for the next couple of days.
Writing some reviews for two boxes I got from Influenster. I'm going to get a new Subscription box this next month and sadly cancelling my Ipsy. I like trying new products all the time but prefer buying my own makeup and things for my skin type. I LOVE when I get my Ipsy bags on the mail but I want a little break. I will probably end up getting more in the future but for now, I want something different. I'll be getting a book subscription. Not sure which one yet. 
Will let you know when I get it! 
I'm still going to try to upload a post at least twice a month, if not more. It is one of my goals and I write it down on my planner to remember. I need organization skills. I used to better at this when I was in school. I need to start now so I'm better at it for when our girl starts school.
That is all for now. Will have some reviews up soon. Maybe more than one a day. 
Hope every one had great Holidays and hearts open to the new year!!

Really fast month and New blog?!? (Short post)

It seems like this whole year has flown by. And that's not always a good feeling to me. There was a lot more I wanted to do and get done. Luckily most of it can still be done. 
On to preparing for Christmas, and a birthday this January.
Plus our family trip next year. A lot on my mind and some time on my hands.
I have considered posting on here about my weight loss journey and all that I do. I'm still thinking about it. There isn't much information I can give you, I obviously don't know everything.
But just to track my progress, keep me in check, and help with my goals. As I always say, this is more of an online, not too personal, diary thingy lol
I post a lot of this kind of stuff on my Instagram centered toward that journey.
My other Instagram is my personal, and nail account. And makeup lol
I'm all over the place... I need more organization in my life.
Anywho, I have a lot of planning and online browsing for presents and some travel ideas.
I like buying some stuff early to try to save money and not blow a whole check at once. 
It's not always fun having Christmas and then her birthday :)
OH!! And I know I don't post all the time but for some reason this site hates me sometimes and I can't find any of the posts I actually do post. Especially the more I post. I might also be looking into moving my blog to a different site. Not sure yet...
Thank you for reading and have a great weekend!

Very Confused

I have written a post every single week and hit publish. From my laptop, not my phone. And they are no where to be seen... Not in my drafts, not copied down anywhere either. They are just gone... I'm actually really upset about this. I know it's not something huge or terrible but it means something to me. Usually when my posts don't get uploaded, it's my fault. This time, I have no idea what happened. I saw them on my list, saw them published, and now they're gone. Even the end of September post! I feel bad but I know it's not that big of deal. I just want to be more consistent, for my own sake. I will make another post next week also. This one is from my phone. I also emailed support l, just to make sure it wasn't something I did and could be fixed. I'm still so new to this and I've been blogging for years lol I have a bunch of photos to post and plan on taking so much more! Especially the ones from my Fall photo list. I will sign off for now and hopefully this stays posted.
