Giveaways 4 Mom

11 May

As you all may have guessed I am getting more into the niche of product reviews and giveaways. However, I sat down and thought about how unfair it would be to you to jeopardize working from home topics. To me it seems that the giveaways and reviews were starting to take over this website so I have decided to create a whole new website for strictly savings & deals and reviews & giveaways. Right now it is still in the beginning phases but I have a few giveaways that will be taking place next week that you will not want to miss out on. So, I suggest subscribing to the new website to be ahead of everyone else.

Do not worry thought this website will still be updated frequently and more than likely I will be still alerting you about the giveaways that will take place on Giveaways4Mom but when other mommy bloggers post giveaways on the site that I am not participating in only Giveaways4Mom subscribers will be alerted.

Check it out for yourself and it you like it feel free to spread the word to your friends: Giveaways4Mom.

Secret Clinical Strength Review

5 May

As many of you already know I write for Yahoo Contributor from time to time even though I do not make much money. However, now it has finally paid off. Recently, I received a free full size sample from Secret through them. I must add that this new deodorant is right on time. I already use Secret so I had no problems at all testing out this new product for them.

As you can see from the pictures Secret Clinical Strength looks very similar to their other secret brands however this one is for sensitive skin. Also, just like any of their other deodorants it comes with the guaranteed satisfaction. The box reads, “This product is guaranteed to provide prescription strength wetness protection when used as directed.” Also, for those of you who actually purchase this product you will have 60 days of purchase to send it back for a refund. The refund should be received in 6-8 weeks yet I doubt that you will be needing to send in back.

 

My Personal Opinion About Secret Clinical Strength Sensitive Skin

Personally I like this product. The directions say it works best at night so I use this deodorant after I bathe at night then in the morning I use my Lavender Secret deodorant. The deodorant has a pleasant smell and it does not leave white marks on my skin. So obviously, that is another plus but I would not expect anything less from Secret anyways. I can also say that I believe it is dermatologist tested because I have very sensitive skin and this brand did not cause any itching or anything of that nature. Also, I have noticed that is also seems to make the skin under my arms smoother too.Overall, I would highly recommend this product to others and at this time I have no complaints about it at all.

As mentioned in the beginning I did receive the Secret Clinical Strength as a free sample. However, these opinions are truly my own and I am not being compensated for leaving this review.

 

Sell or Be Sold Book Review

4 May

Sell or Be Sold: How to Get Your Way in Business and in Life is an excellent book that can be purchased on Amazon. Back in March I received a review copy of the book and I must say from the very first page it had my attention. It is a book I would recommend to work at home moms and anyone else who is looking to go into business for themselves but has a few doubts.

What I Liked About The Book

When I think about what attracted me to the book the most there are just so many things that come to my mind. I will also like to say that Grant did an amazing job when it comes to this book. Below are some of the features that I want to highlight:

 

  • The book is broken down into easy to read sections which makes it not only easier to read the book but it draws you in more.
  • The things that are discussed in the book are actually things that we can relate to. For example, Grant mentions that everything in life has to do with selling which it does. It does not matter what job you are shooting for you are going to have to sell yourself. So, why not become a sale’s person and cut all of the extra things that come along with other jobs.

Additional Comments

Overall, I am satisfied with the book Sell or Be Sold and I highly recommend to anyone. As a matter of fact, when I started reading this book it was my inspiration to start focusing more on Affiliate Marketing and I can also say that my Affiliate Marketing earning are starting to increase even though at this point in time they are just gradually increasing.

 

Last, I was not paid to write this review. Instead it is an honest opinion that is coming from me that I thought I would share with my readers.

Lansinoh Baby Bottle Review

3 May

As many of you know I have become a Twitter party addict and I make it a goal to attend at least one a week to chat about topics that interest me and connect with others who share these interests. Back in April I was fortunate enough to attend the Lansinoh Momma Twitter Party  and I happened to be a winner of one of their new bottles that has just been released. This bottle was a perfect win for me because as many of you already know I am expecting baby number 3 in September so this is one less bottle that I have to buy :) I have received it and I thought what would be a better idea than to share what I think of it so far with other expecting mothers. Obviously, I have not had the chance to use it yet but this review lets others know what I like about it so far. Once tested I will update the review. Many may not have heard of it before like me because sometimes being a work at home mom can cause us to be out of tune with things.

My Personal Opinion:

Before I begin explaining what I think about the Lansinoh mOmma Feeding Bottle, 8.4 Ounce I want to go ahead and say that this is an honest review. I was not asked to review this bottle nor am I being compensated for it.

The first thing that stroked my interest in this bottle was the shape – yes I am an appearance person. As you can see from the picture it has a distinctive shape and personally I have never seen another bottle like it. Also, I like the fact that it is small because newborns obviously are not going to be eating 8 ounces at a time. Lastly, from observing the nipples it seems as though they are going to be perfect when it comes time to make the transition from breast to bottle. Currently, I have no complaints but as I mentioned earlier I will be updating the review after the baby has arrived and had the chance to try it out.

My Second Interview

2 May

As many of you know I have been labeled as a freelance writer for over a year now. About 6 months into my freelance writing career I was asked to do an interview. At that point in time I was not very established and felt honored to be given the opportunity. Now here I am a year and a month later and I have been asked to do a 2nd interview for 1099Mom. 1099Mom is a great website to check out in general. So, you can probably imagine how honored I felt when Linsey asked me if I would like to do an interview for a fabulous website. The interview turned out great and I figured you guys may want to check it out. Also, while there be sure to take a look around the website in general. It is full of amazing information and she has also conducted other interviews with people from various niches.
