Review: Nicki Minaj’s Myx Fusions flavors in Coconut, Peach and Moscato

In honor of National Moscato Day I want to tell you about Myx Fusions! I don’t normally go for products endorsed or associated with Celebrities but Myx Fusions is an exception.

Nicki Minaj released a refreshing fruit infused moscato beverage with three flavors in Coconut, Peach and Moscato, of course! I have tried all three flavors when they were first release two weeks ago at my local food store. The drinks are sold in New York for $9.99 and are available in a 4pk each contain 5.5% alcohol (soon to be sold worldwide). Needless to say I have been coming back for more since then, click here to find a retailer near you. I love Prosecco (a light, dry, fruity sparkling wine) but when I want something sweeter I pick up some Moscato (a light, sweeter, sparkling wine), you’ll love moscato if you are Riesling or Sweet Red Wine fan. Myx came at the right time, just as the weather begins to warm up and when people tend to pick up chilled fizzing bubble drinks. The Moscato flavor is blended with natural fruit juices that gives it that delicate sweetness. This flavor is very versatile, subtle enough to pair it with pasta, seafood dish or ending the night along with dessert. The Peach and Coconut flavor is what a summer fruity fizzing bubble drink should be! The Peach brings out the peachy aromas normally found in moscato but with a pop of flavor that’s fun and satisfying. The coconut is not something I thought would mix well but it works in so many ways. The coconut is not overpowering and accommodate the hints of apricot, vanilla and honey. As I was enjoying these flavors on many occasions it didn’t leave me wanting dessert afterwards, that’s saying a lot since I have the biggest sweet tooth. When I was in the mood for dessert it did pair perfectly with cookies or cheesecake. I hope Myx Fusions makes a larger version of the bottle because I can see it being used to make great mixed drinks, spritzers or tropical fruit sangrias. Bring on these delicious drinks, cheers!

Review: YummyEarth Organic Lollipops, Hot Chili Pops

Happy Cinco de Mayo Everyone! YummyEarth Lollipops were first given to me a few years ago by my mother. I told her a few times that I enjoy organic products and being the great mother that she is, most gifts she buys me are organic. Then as soon as I finished my first YummyEarth Organic Lollipops bag I was in love with this company, see how they make these yummy pops.

So when YummyEarth sent me a package of their Hot Chili Pops to review (featuring two flavors, Chili Lime Lambada and Chili Mango Mambo) I was more than excited. As I tasted the mango I was very impress with the flavor, a burst of juicy ripe mango with the mix Natural Hot Chili gives the right amount of heat. I love spicy food, specifically mexican cusine, so since I have a high tolerance it still gave me a great kick. I shared them with a friend who is sensitive to spices and she thought it was the right amount of spice and sweetness, perfect contrast in taste.

The Chili Lime Lambada pop is just as balanced in flavor making it equally as enjoyable but a bit more refreshing. I love the taste of citrus but it’s rare to get naturally derived juices into candies. This is why I love YummyEarth, they make it possible for you not to worry about what you are consuming. I do not really eat any other candy because most of them have preservatives and artificial flavors and it turns me off. These lollipops are hot enough to be enjoyed anytime and a great tip: can be used if you have a stuffy nose or during a cold since it can help. Summertime is here so colds are probably not in your near future but Margaritas and Mexican food is, Enjoy 5 de Mayo!

Review of The Honest Co. Home and Baby Products, Get 40% off your first Bundle!

The Honest Co. create safe, eco-friendly, beautiful, convenient, and affordableI products for the whole family! I was one of the lucky people in the US to have had access to their products at a physical store since last year and can’t say enough great things about them!

Product for family: Shampoo + Body Wash, Lotion, Healing Balm, Detergent and Hand Wash. I know a lot of people want to debate that the additives found in most of our products cause no harm but why take the chance. I don’t underestimate the possibility that they are causing harm because after getting 100% assurance your products are safe like at Honest, you won’t go back. Shampoo + Body Wash really get you clean (Plus Baby safe) and the lotion is great and never irritating. Heal Balm is actually very versatile to use on minor cuts & scrapes, dry skin, razor burns and baby’s bums. I used the Detergent to spot clean and it’s super effective. The Hand Wash made with organic lemongrass oil and grapefruit seed botanical extracts to protect, clean, soften hands and smells so refreshing!

Products for baby: Baby wipes, Diapers. The amazing thing about the products stated above is they are baby safe so there is no need to buy two different sets again. I love their baby wipes, I use these to wipe my face clean of makeup and dirt, it’s so amazing. More importantly it’s best for my baby, with all the natural ingredients I can trust because even some of the so called “natural brands” might have additives they try to sneak in. I started off as a huggies/pampers mama for the first few months but after doing a lot of research I am never going back. Last November I brought the Honest diapers for my baby (now 1 year old) and her skin has improved, has never had a rash since! This definitely has something to do with absorbency and chlorine free materials which are, shockingly enough, other diapers are full of. These eco-friendly, sustainable and very cute diapers (with lots of patterns to pick from) give you and your family peace of mind which got me excited enough to want even more of the products growing by the day.

If you like try the products stated above like the ones my daughter is opening in the pictures you can Get their Free Trial. You can also use PlumDistrict40 to save 40% off your first bundle at checkout or talk their the amazing customer service if you want to apply it to an order later down the road.

Review: Bobby Van’s Steakhouse and Deal $125 for $200 worth of Dinner at their Broad st Location

I am getting some of my wisdom teeth taken out today! Needless to say I made sure my last meal would be epic. Where did I have my last meal? Bobby Van’s. Please let me live vicariously through you and get this Deal!

Bobby Vans is the epitome of class and sophistication but let’s get to the meat of the review, FOOD! I have visited both their 54th Street and Financial District location (my favorite), happy to report that both are equally great in customer service and in Quality of food. The waiters are superb, extensive knowledge on wine and which wine complements each dish. Insider tip: on Saturdays the Financial District location sell half off all bottles of wine! I always start with the Crab Cake, no filler here as this is crabby cake is on the opposite end of the spectrum, worth every penny. The porterhouse is something I love to order, perfectly cooked every time, I recommend you get it cooked medium. For sides I order mac & cheese with lobster and sautéed mushrooms. If you are in the mood for something light I suggest you go for the lemon pepper jumbo shrimp entrée, comes over a bed of rice. When you take a bite out of that you’re going to want to scream for joy, it’s just that good. The gallery below are dishes I highly recommend.

As many times as I go to Bobby Van’s, I’m constantly mesmerize by the decor, especially considering it’s rich history. When you’re seated here you will always be treated like royalty and I just love that. It’s a great place to go and nothing gets better than being at one of New York’s most traditional Steakhouses!

Review: Burberry Brit Eau de Toilette for Women and Deal $29.99 for 1.7 or 3.3 Ounce (54% Off) Free Shipping

Here is a Deal that will leave you smelling so irresistible that you better get use to all the compliments you will be receiving. You must grab this Deal Amazing: $29.99 for Burberry Brit 1.7- or 3.3-Ounce Eau de Toilette for Women (Up to 54% Off) Free Shipping! Here is my review on the Burberry Brit Perfume.

I recevied this as a gift in 2008 and fell in love with this fragrance. I use it to entice as it is very sexy, flirtatious and alluring. This perfume is great year around and works in different climates. The scent is fresh and clean, never overpowering. It stays on in heavy humidity while I am in back home in Miami and yet it is so warm and cozy during the cold months in NYC. This spicy scent almost smells ‘natural’ like what you would smell like after washing with body wash or your hair with shampoo. You can smell some almond, lime, pear and a dash of vanilla mixes well with the mahogany wood, amber, and tonka bean. It smells exactly the same in bottle as it does after it is first applied and after it settles. I recommended this to all my friends and it seems to work on everyone body chemistry which helps it last long. One bottle seems to last many months and One bottle actually lasted me a year when I was using it almost every day.

Enter code MBRE13 in shopping bag. Offer expires March 17, 2013 at 11:59 pm (EDT). I recommend any of the bliss triple oxygen products! Here is my Review on “bliss triple oxygen + C energizing cream“:

You will love the texture of this moisturizer but what really gets your attention at first is the smell of a delicious light citrus scent. When you touch it, the consistency is between a gel and a cream. This moisturizes my combination to oily skin so well, with no breakouts and reduces oil. Never leaves your skin greasy and helps any flaky dry areas too! The directions say that you can rub it until it is absorbed but sometimes when I am in a rush I do not have to let the moisturizer dry before I apply my make-up. That’s a bonus for busy ladies everywhere. My skin looks healthy and so much brighter! A jar would last you about 3 months, if you plan on using it morning and night. I have to say that this product is worth every penny!

Anyone would love a Cheryl’s Cookies Sparkling Snowfall Gift Set

Happy New Year Everyone!

Cheryl’s Cookies Review: Sparkling Snowfall – Assorted Cookies (chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, christmas sugar cookies and buttercream frosted holiday cookie cut-outs). If you’re a fan of soft cake-like cookies then buttercream frosted cookie cut-outs are prefect. All their flavors (including the Chocolate Cookie with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting) weren’t too sugary or too rich . The buttercream layered chocolate sandwich cookies were delectable.

The White confection pretzel clusters were delicious and sets itself apart with its crunchy texture. Their Chocolate chip cookie was no different than your run of the mill cookie. Overall I know most people would love these cookies (I tested them in the office). Kids love them as well! All of them are individually wrapped and stay fresh within 5-7 days. You can freeze them for up to 6 months.

ALWAYS CHECK THEIR WEBSITE, THEY ALWAYS HAVE LOTS OF COUPON CODES!
