Be ready for the holidays with Smile Brilliant cariPRO™ Ultrasonic toothbrush #sponsored @smilebrilliant #smilefearlessly


I bet you have seen those ultrasonic toothbrushes in the stores or clicked and looked when you were shopping online but just never made the decision to buy one yet. Some of the big brands are pretty pricey. Smile Brilliant cariPRO has recently made it a lot more affordable for anyone to up their dental game and get the latest technology. It definitely makes a difference for clean teeth and healthy gums in my personal experience over the last week or so. Who doesn't want to have a beautiful celebrity smile? Smile Brilliant gifted me with a cariPRO Ultrasonic toothbrush recently so I could see for myself how effective their newest technology really is. 

I have been using a big name ultrasonic toothbrush for years because my dentist actually recommended me to do it. He said ultrasonic toothbrushes really do a better job cleaning your teeth thoroughly. I need to have a bright, white smile every single day so I budgeted for it since their really weren't other options. After recently trying the Smile Brilliant cariPRO, I wish that it was available back then. The Smile Brilliant cariPRO does just as good of a job cleaning as my fancy pants big brand ultrasonic toothbrush! It is full of features that my big name toothbrush has too.  

I spend my days visiting important clients and a fresh, white smile is important. I want people to focus on my words, so I want to make sure my teeth are clean, white and healthy.  I am careful about caring for my teeth and gums so I brush with a gentle whitening toothpaste and floss daily. I started using my Smile Brilliant cariPRO about a week ago and it works every bit as effectively to clean my teeth comfortably and thoroughly. I like that the cariPRO has a sleek, modern design that is easy to hold. It charges quickly and takes up minimal counter space.  I like using my cariPRO at night because I can take my time and floss my teeth first and then thoroughly clean my teeth before bed. It is interesting that if I feel my teeth after brushing with the cariPRO I can feel the difference versus when I use a manual toothbrush on those super rushed mornings. When I have the time I try to exclusively use my electric toothbrush in the am too.  My teeth feel so much cleaner and smoother when I use the cariPRO because it is so much more effective at removing plaque.  You need to see for yourself. 

Smile Brilliant cariPROUltrasonic toothbrush has 5 different brush modes too. I had to pay a lot more for this feature back when I bought my big name brand years ago. My dentist recommends the sensitive mode for everyday since it is the most gentle mode. Sometimes I need a more deep cleaning and it is a cinch to switch and try the Clean, White, Massage or Gum Care modes. The White is great if you enjoy red wine or colas since it really does a deeper cleaning of the tooth surfaces. The Smile Brilliant CariPRO comes neatly boxed and includes everything you need to get started with cleaner, healthier and whiter teeth.  Your charging base is included as well as two brush heads.  It takes about two minutes to brush properly with the cariPRO and see the best results. 

I find that when I use an ultrasonic toothbrush like this cariPRO, it keeps my teeth cleaner and I can get in and out of my twice a year dentist visits much faster with fewer issues. My teeth are cleaner and it seems to leave less chance for cavities to form since all surfaces of the teeth are super cleaned. Smile Brilliant provides a 2-year warranty on their products too and they really want complete satisfaction so if you don't love it like I do, they will take it back. Trust me, you will want to keep it.
This Smile Brilliant cariPRO™ Ultrasonic toothbrush effectively cleans teeth quickly. Once your cariPRO is charged up it stays charged for several days too. I will be taking it with me on vacation this fall and winter and it is definitely coming on my upcoming business trip. I already marked in my calender when I started using it since I try to change the electric toothbrush heads about every three months.  

Smile Brilliant cariPRO™ Ultrasonic toothbrush is so easy to use, anyone from teens to adults can use it too. This would be a great gift to give with the holidays coming. If you have a friend or a family member (my oldest sister!) who is still using a manual toothbrush this would totally be a welcome and useful gift. You can pick up this Smile Brilliant Whitening Smile Brilliant cariPRO™ Ultrasonic toothbrush online for easy shopping anytime. Use the coupon code: 20glamamama for 20% off your purchase!

OVERCOMER is in theatres now! WIN free tickets for you and a friend #overcomermovie #Flyby @flybypromotions

OVERCOMER is in movie theatres now!



Have you ever struggled with anything in life? Of course you have. We all have. Sometimes struggles seem unsurmountable until they are not. I always say, as my dad taught me, keep taking steps through the darkness until you see the light. The light always comes but you have to have the courage to make it through the darkness first. Faith is critical. Overcomer is an amazing movie that will inspire you to hope and dream.

Life changes overnight for coach John Harrison when his high school basketball team’s state championship dreams are crushed under the weight of unexpected news. When the largest manufacturing plant in town suddenly shuts down and hundreds of families begin moving away, John must come to grips with the challenges facing his family and his team. Urged by the school’s principal to fill-in and coach a sport he doesn’t know or like, John is frustrated and questioning his worth ... until he crosses paths with a student struggling with her own journey.


Filled with a powerful mix of faith, a twist of humor, and a ton of heart, the Kendrick Brothers return to theaters with OVERCOMER, their newest feature following FACING THE GIANTS, FIREPROOF, COURAGEOUS, and the #1 box- office hit, WAR ROOM. The inspiring family film stars Alex Kendrick, Priscilla Shirer, Shari Rigby, Cameron Arnett, and introduces Aryn Wright-Thompson. Opening nationwide on August 23, OVERCOMER dares to leave you filled with hope, inspired to dream, and asks the question: what do you allow to define you?



ABOUT PROVIDENT FILMS
Provident Films, a division of Provident Music Group, a Sony company, develops, produces and markets faith-based films. A pioneer in the genre since 2006, Provident Films’ partnerships include Sherwood Pictures/Kendrick Brothers (WAR ROOM, COURAGEOUS, FIREPROOF and FACING THE GIANTS), The Erwin Brothers (WOODLAWN, MOMS’ NIGHT OUT and the $83 million box office surprise, I CAN ONLY IMAGINE), Kirk Cameron (CONNECT) and Graceworks Pictures (INDIVISIBLE released Oct. 26, 2018). For more information, go to www.providentfilms.org.
ABOUT KENDRICK BROTHERS PRODUCTIONS
Kendrick Brothers Productions is the company of brothers Alex, Stephen and Shannon Kendrick that exists to honor God and share the truth and love of Jesus Christ through movies, books, curriculum and speaking. By blending engaging stories with doctrinal integrity, the Kendricks seek to encourage and inspire audiences with resources that positively impact their lives and strengthen their faith, families, and personal relationships.
2018 marks the 15th anniversary of the release of FLYWHEEL, the Kendrick Brothers’ first feature film. Produced with a shockingly modest budget of only $20,000 and intended for Albany, Georgia residents where the brothers served on staff at Sherwood Baptist Church, FLYWHEEL went on to sell over a million copies in DVD format.
“We’re just amazed at what the Lord’s done with it,” says Alex Kendrick.
2018 also marks the production of the Kendricks’ 6th film, OVERCOMER. Between those two milestones, the Kendricks’ first film and the production of their latest film, the Kendrick Brothers’ body of work has been credited with creating a subcategory known as faith-based films.
With more than $150 million in box office receipts across five films plus millions more in DVD and on-demand sales worldwide, the Kendrick Brothers are recognized as leading the genre.



WHY IDENTITY?
“The movie OVERCOMER is about identity, an issue that everyone deals with. Everyone needs to answer the questions: ‘Who is God?’, and ‘Who am I?’, and the Scriptures deal with both of those things. When a person discovers who they are in Christ, it opens up an understanding of how they can live that out in a daily basis in what they do in their relationships with others,” said Stephen Kendrick.
“When we started the process with OVERCOMER, Alex began to unpack this idea of a cross-country runner who’s dealing with the issue of identity, and at the same time, I’d been studying Ephesians 1 and 2. We can see how the Lord was paralleling our paths to specifically make this movie.”
“Cross country is a very difficult sport. From the time you start, you do not stop or pause until you cross the finish line. And in many regards, that’s like our life; that’s our journey of faith,” said Alex Kendrick.
“As people are walking out of the theater, we hope that they begin to ask questions about where their identity is found, because too often we find it in our circumstances, in our titles, in what other people are saying about us, in our jobs, in our positions or awards. Those things can be taken away,” said Stephen Kendrick.
“I hope moviegoers will realize their salvation is about much more than just having a ticket to eternity. They were actually given a brand-new identity. Which means, they have access to spiritual blessings, they have an inheritance, they have all this stuff that’s available to them, this side of eternity. And when you realize that, that means the decisions you make, the relationships you have, the trajectory you choose, the ambitions that you hold, all of that stuff will reflect, and be indicative of your brand-new identity. That changes and transforms the way you live,” said Priscilla Shirer.
WHAT IS AN OVERCOMER?
OVERCOMER in many regards, is a discovery of who we are in Christ, who gets to determine our identity and what we have to overcome to embrace the life God has for us,” said Alex Kendrick.
“Overcoming is about powering through and realizing that on the other side of it you are stronger and more courageous than when you started,” said Shari Rigby.
“Being an overcomer means you keep your head up and you know that you’re going to get through it; you figure out a way to get through it, you keep your faith strong, you get through it, and you just thank God,” said Aryn Wright-Thompson.
“Being an overcomer means there is pain, discomfort, inconvenience, life’s tough, and yet you have joy and peace and all the stuff that you can only have if there is an anchor in your soul,” said Priscilla Shirer.

Apollo 11 The IMAX Experience is in theatres now!




If you are a fan of space travel or just love history, this movie is a must see.  Apollo 11 features never before seen large format footage of the historical mission to land on the moon led by Commander Neil Armstrong and pilots Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins. This movie is truly cinematic event that was 50 years in the making,  This is a movie that should only be experienced on the big screen.

This isn't what you would expect with all the typical historical interviews and nonsense. You don't see old movie clips. You actually experience the whole Apollo 11 mission itself. Wait till you see the rows and rows of techs sitting at ancient computer screens. The reality is that these were the state of the art at the time. It's like you took a step back in time and it is totally fascinating on the big screen. Todd Douglas Miller directs the movie and you will be impressed with how it was played out.


You hear Walter Cronkite in the background on and off throughout the movie along with the NASA techs and announcers speaking into these enormous headsets. It is so transformative to keep hearing that voice from beyond. You see these fantastic images of the liftoff, the landing and the departure from the surface of the moon and you become transfixed.  The moments are so thrilling even this many years later including that descent back through the Earth's atmosphere. You might find youself holding your breath. 


Apollo 11 is a must see for anyone that loves history, space or just a well directed movie about a fantastic event. You  will be wowed by the way Miller directed the movie with these startlingly vivid images in living color and how history unfolds before your eyes. You will feel transported to another time, almost like one of the lucky spectators in the parking lot watching the liftoff and landing. Get to the theater before it is gone.
