I love to garden and that is no secret. The key for me is getting an early start with the seeds. One of the flowers that I just adore is sunflowers. There is something so fascinating and almost prehistoric about them that just ales me want to grow them every year. Someone, or some others apparently love them just as much though and that can be problematic. Who? That is a question you might ask. Not a friend....those vexing squirrels. Chick-fil-A has given me an easy solution though. Even better, the solution is green.
As a Chick-fil-A Mom, I am fortunate to receive some goodies here and there and one of them recently helped to facilitate this review. I had one of their delicious salads and I had a challenge to recycle the container. The timing was perfect as the squirrels had recently raised my sunflower seeds that I had planted in a little peat pot on my porch. Of course I was quite irked until I realized I had the perfect solution. My Chick-fil-A salad container already has vent holes and a cover to keep out prying and hungry squirrels.
I added a bit of festive spring flower decor, potting soil, water and my sunflower seeds to my Chick-fil-A salad container and covered it lightly. A perfect squirrel proof mini seed starter pot that is as green as it can be. Thanks Chick-fil-A for my little greenhouse. I will keep you all posted as the sunflowers grow tall and beautiful!

I
love it....Beauty Box five has the fun beauty ideas for every day of
the year whether it is spring, summer, fall or winter. My little blue
box from BB5 helps me manage to keep it all together at work and at home
to freshen up my glam look no matter what the day holds for me. BB5
shows you how you can squeeze in quality beauty time into even the days
you gotta speed things along with a few little special products. Check
out all the trendiest of autumn fashions now that the long, hot days of
summer are starting to fade! Don't forget to share your fave finds and
share with friends too. Take a peek at a few beauty goodies to go along
with your pretty fashions and maybe grab a few extra for friends. A BB5
subscription makes a great gift any friend would appreciate all year
long.
Everyone
loves getting the inside scoop. I like trying new beauty products from
sunscreens to lipsticks and find that I often find new faves. That is
one of the great things about BB5. You can try lots of new things and
sub in new favorites without being stuck with a huge bottle of this or
that. I happens to the best of us even with green intentions. Sometimes I
look at a product in the store but I worry it might not be for me and I
don't want to spend all that money if I don't know that I really like
it. Who needs something else to sit on the bathroom shelf or take up
more room in a drawer? I would always feel guilty. Every once in a while
you get lucky and the store has a sample or perhaps a beauty company
sends you a sample and you get to try it first. That is the premise
behind BB5.
The
ideal solution for all of us is brought to you by Beauty Box 5. They
understand and created their great beauty sampling box program. Beauty Box 5 is an amazing subscription beauty box sampler that
is delivered right to your doorstep (or mailbox) filled with a
combination of 5 brand new cosmetic samples monthly, quarterly or
annually. You can start out at just $12 a month or save more by getting a
longer subscription. Signing up to receive Beauty Box 5 each month is a
great new way for anyone from teens to moms to sample new cosmetic products and
see what works for you. Each month they include tips and tricks for
the products on the back of this little card below to help you get the
most out of your beauty samples each month.
Beauty
Box 5 is always on the lookout for the latest new items to make the
best matches for your own personal taste and lifestyle. The prices are
reasonable too. You can get a Beauty Box 5 monthly for $12, quarterly
for $30 or annually for just $99. Shipping is always free. A fun way
to check out lots of the new beauty stuff out there without a whole lot
of $$ investment. The great part is that if you like something, you can
just up and buy the full size item, right? Much better than buying a
full size you-know-what-beauty-item and paying a fortune and then it
sits in the makeup bag gathering dust because it doesn't work for you.
Beauty
Box 5 mixes it up with their brands and keeps things adventurous. They
source from a mix of niche, luxe, regular drugstore, vegan and
eco-conscious brands. One month you might get hair care, nail care,
makeup, skin care, fragrances or even beauty accessories or a mix of any
of the above. I love the suspense! You will get a carefully curated

What is summer without heading to the beach? I love spending time at our family beach house. We are right on the beach so we spend hours relaxing or running on the beach and dipping our feet in the water. Of course I start my day at home with clean skin and a good SPF sunscreen every single time. Skin protection is a must in our home but even with a good sunscreen skin gets dry when you are outside in the sun and surf all day. Pure, natural skincare from the French Alps, evian® Facial Spray is beneficial for any skin type at any age but especially in the summer. Days at the beach can really dry out my skin. evian® Facial Spray as a convenient and
necessary “must-have” makeup and skincare item for hot temperatures,
travel, and the many unexpected elements of summer that can leave us
parched and dry. I am careful with the sunscreen but if I get a small sunburn from a spot I missed (darn it!) I know evian can help add moisture back in to my skin there as well. I just tuck a bottle of evian® Facial Spray right into my portable soft side cooler that I bring to the beach. I can reach in a spray it on my skin anytime for a cool mist of refreshing natural skincare all day long.
I keep evian® Facial Spray on hand all the time to keep my skin looking fresh and dewy no matter what I am doing. evian has a unique, balanced, mineral content and exquisitely
fine micro-droplet mist that allows skin to better absorb its hydration and keep a fresh, natural look. This favorite of
skincare and makeup professionals is affordable luxury for me and you at its best. I love that it is available in three convenient sizes too. I can stash a container in my beach bag, in my purse or even in my backpack. evian® Facial Spray is leak-proof
and environmentally friendly too. It comes in a 1.7 oz. travel size (TSA approved), 5 oz. for beach tote or purse
and an economical 10 oz. for use at home. evian is a classic
beauty secret that comes all the way from the French Alps. No other
water has the same
mineral content as evian. It is my summer beauty secret that keeps my
skin looking fresh and dewy even after a day at the beach. I know I can
head out to dinner or walk along the boardwalk and look gorgeous and fresh anytime. I like how I can pull my evian out at any time and give my skin a spritz and freshen up too.I love the feel of my skin when I spray my evian. The exquisitely fine mist produced by evian® Facial Spray penetrates and
rehydrates the upper layers of the skin naturally. evian has a unique
mineral balance along with exceptional purity which is perfect for sensitive, dry, normal or oily skin. It leaves my skin feeling
refreshed and looking radiant. This is my go-to summer beauty secret. I keep a few bottles on hand at my beach house so I have it on hand for myself and my guests all summer long.
The reality is that the sun and salt water just pull that moisture from your skin. An easy way to keep your
skin hydrated throughout the day is by using cooling and refreshing evian®
Facial Spray. Don’t forget sunscreen though! A
bit of fascinating history with evian that I didn't know. evian Facial
Spray was originally introduced in France in 1962 at the
request of doctors for use on burn patients. It was the first facial
water spray in France and was introduced as the first facial spray in
the United States in 1978. evian is the only
facial spray to be carried by many prestige retail stores and websites
including
Nordstrom and Sephora. Thanks to its gentle and unique
mineral balance, the benefits of evian® Facial Spray go far beyond
refreshment. Get smart before you hit the beach or shore and pick up a bottle or two of evian® Facial Spray and add it into your summer skincare
routine.
I
like that I can feel confident using evian anywhere on my face or body.
The French Government has extremely stringent standards for approving
mineral waters as suitable to drink. Evian Facial Spray is the only
mineral water spray in the USA to contain such a water and the only one
with a companion drinkable bottled mineral water. The Evian
