I travel frequently for business via train and plane. I need a comfortable pillow. The Enzo travel pillow has some great features and benefits which set it apart from many of the other pillows out there. I love the way it helps support my head and neck and lets me relax without worry that I am going to get a neck kink. This is a true luxury pillow made of velour--75% Cotton and 25% Polyester. Velour is a thin multi-layer fabric that gives the pillow a  luxurious feel for comfort. It has 4.5D density that gives you full comfort of memory foam and freedom to move your neck.

The Enzo neck pillow gives you maximum lower neck support with center spine. It even has cervical neck support; It has a button lock holds it in place; ideal for home, car, train, office or even airplane. I really appreciate that 10% of all earnings in profit will be donated to raise awareness about global warming by partnering up with World Wildlife Organization. All proceedings will go to its 'ADOPT A POLAR BEAR' program. This is a program that works to save polar bears from losing their natural habitat.

I like that the cooling gel keeps me comfortable, reduces neck pain and muscle tension while traveling. Enzo uses a thin layer A grade of cooling gel. This cooling gel is highly absorbent preventing your neck from getting overheated and the thin layer allows you to feel the full comfort of memory foam. The special visco-elastic material is designed to rebound slowly and conform against pressure. Rebound time for for high end memory foam is 3-5 seconds. This premium 4.5D pillow averaged at 3 seconds (best score for memory foam).

Enzo makes a soft and super comfortable pillow that even comes with a travel bag so you can truly take it anywhere. It really feels comfortable against your skin and prevents hot spots which can get uncomfortable.  The best part is that it packs away in seconds. It tucks right into the sleek bag too...perfect for storage. That means it doesn't take up unnecessary space in my carry-on baggage or at home. It is super lightweight too. The Enzo Travel Pillow neck pillow weighs in so light when packed away inside the luxurious bag. This pillow doesn't weigh me or my baggage down.The Enzo neck pillow is ready when you need it and provides a comfortable resting surface to reduce stress, nap or sleep on the go. This pillow is non-toxic, hypo-allergenic and easy to tote anywhere. This super soft memory foam pillow folds down smaller than an average too. You can get more information on the

Beauty Box 5 October Need a Little Pink Me-Up? #wipethatfaceoff #ferrocosmetics #stylistyle #shopknotty #nubar @beautybox5

Disclosure: I was not financially compensated for this post. I received the products for review purposes. The opinions are my own, based on my personal experience with the products.

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.  Each month 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 marvy products.  Check out all the trendiest of autumn into winter fashions now that the cooler weather is rolling in! Don't forget to share your fave beauty and style finds with friends too. Take a peek at a few beauty goodies to go along with your fall 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 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.

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 blend of travel, full-size and deluxe samples from their most current collection.

As always It was chock full of amazing goodies that I could not wait to try. There were items for my hands, face and body tucked in there this month.  Lots of special items to keep me looking fresh and alluring wherever the cool fall days take me from work to play.  They take me all over too but hopefully not too far from home. We will have to see. I am one busy mama as always.

The first item in this box is a HappyFace Makeup Cleansing Cloth.  All those workouts each day (and sometimes twice a day) require me to keep my skin clean so I don't get any breakouts. This machine washable cloth is a winner since it is eco-friendly and reusable.You don't need to use cleanser either. Yup. It gets all the makeup and dirt off fast. It might be a good solution for you too. I have heard about these cloths but had never tried one before. I like it and it seems to be gentle on my skin. I like that it is designed and tested in the US, but I have to note that it is made in China.  Retail: $3.99. 

Pretty in pink for the month of October! Ferro Cosmetics has the next product in the box with the Pink Rhinestone Kabuki Brush and it is ideal buffing on my mineral foundation, powder, blush or bronzer wherever I go this fall.  It is adorable with rhinestones and the pink topped brush. What a fresh take on the usual makeup brush that gets lost in my cavernous purse or makeup bag.  It is very soft and I find it works well to get a natural look from my bronzer and mineral foundation powder. Naturally I stashed it right in my purse but this one I can find easily whenever I need it. This could be a cute beauty gift for a friend along with a nice bronzer for some winter color. Let's not forget our friends this season. A deal at $25.00.

 This Nubar Nail Polish Mini is the perfect way to add some pretty pink color to your fingers or toes anytime. Pink is perfect for Pinktober or any month at all. Sometimes all those dark colors get a little bit old. If the pretty pink color didn't get your attention I don't know what will. This is priced reasonably too so enjoy...pick up a few other Nubar colors to add to your different looks all year long.  This would also be perfect as part of a super cute little treat tucked into a gift bag for your best friend, your girls.  At this price I can collect a few more. Retail: $4.99  

I love my lip color. I am always happy to add to my collelction anytime at all. that adds dimension because it really defines the eyes. Styli-Style Perfect Pout Long Lasting Lip Balm Stick is an ideal option for your dry lips because it adds color and moisture. I use lip balm most every day even on the weekends.  My everyday makeup routine includes moisturizer, mascara, a bit of eyeliner and lipgloss or balm. I am thrilled because this one goes on smoothly so I can swipe on some defining color in a flash. Even if I am in a rush my lips add a bit of pretty to my look.  Perfect on my busy days when I just want perky, defined lips that last. I am looking forward to using this one during the fall. A good deal at $4.99.

The final item in this precious box is package of Knotty Hair Ties in a Think Pink shade. These are lightweight hair ties that prevent snags, defend against breakage and keep that dent away. These ties look so much cuter than regular hairbands too. They are even sophisticated enough to style a pony for work and a whole lot easier on your hair than pins and standard hairbands. This girl loves her hair to be carefree sometimes so these are heavenly for me.  I don't have a ton of time so I am thrilled that it only take a few seconds to style a sophisticated pony that looks stylish and has some flair.  A secret beauty steal at $4.00

Disclosure: Powered by Brandbacker

I am always looking for quick solutions to help me look fresher and to keep those fine lines at bay. I don't have a wealth of time though...as a busy mama with a career it can be a real challenge. That's why I was hopeful to hear about a new age defying technology that uses a powerful combination of ingredients to come to my rescue. TelomErase Triple Telomere Targeting Serum uses the latest technology. This amazing serum a 6-in-1 multi-corrective that erases, tightens, brightens, blurs, moisturizes and can support regeneration. It contains a powerful combination of novel ingredients available to visibly reduce the appearance of saggy skin, dark circles, fine lines, sunspots, redness, pore size and slack skin. These are all issues I see in my 40's and I don't like any of them. Who would? I was really excited to find a simple solution like TelomErase Serum that I could buy online anytime.
 

How does this serum work? Recent data suggest a correlation between telomere length and integrity with overall health and skin condition. The company shared that protecting telomeres is a novel strategy to maintain healthy skin. Reviv Serums also shared data from Harvard Medical School that indicated telomere shortening is a root cause of cellular aging. Telomerase is an enzyme that appears slow or even reverse telomere shortening. This naturally happens as skin ages unfortunately.  The recent development of a sensitive and efficient telomerase activity detection method has  made it possible to quantify telomerase activity. TelomErase Serum is a novel beauty solution that contains three age-erasing telomere targeters: Cycloastragenol + Renovage® + Telosomyl®. These are the latest solutions in cosmetic chemistry to target telomere stabilization. They are simple and effective solutions that really work.

I am always looking for innovative ways to keep my skin looking younger without any kind of surgical intervention. This is state of the art skincare at its best and most simple. I noticed a difference after using TelomErase Serum and was impressed. It is gentle and feels great on my skin. The results are quick and effective. My sister tried it as well and was thinking we have to get this for our mom. I really like that it doesn't involve a major project to use and takes only a few seconds to get great results. I am so busy I don't have time for involved beauty products or routines. TelomErase Serum is so easy to incorporate into my beauty regimen. I can't wait to see how it looks jumping forward a few more weeks or months into the holidays. Take a peek at the video below for more information from the company.

evian® Facial Spray’s Bon Voyage Sweepstakes so you can travel in style #evianspray @brandbacker

Disclosure: This post is powered by Brandbacker. 

I remember using evian ®Natural Mineral Water years ago as a professional brand new to the workforce. It really helped me look and feel more sophisticated and professional. evian is a classic beauty secret that comes all the way from the French Alps. evian actually starts as rain and snow high atop the French Alps after which it filters for over 15 years through glacial rock and sand to a deep underground catchment just outside the town of Evian-Les-Bains, France. Unbelievable but true that the water contained in the spray is tested 300 times per day to insure quality and the consistent unique mineral content. I love that it is guaranteed to be the same every single time. No other water has the same mineral content as evian.

I love the feel of my skin when I spray my evian. The exquisitely fine mist produced by evian® Brumisateur® penetrates and rehydrates the upper layers of the skin naturally. Consider the source of the evian water.  It has a unique mineral balance along with exceptional purity which is perfect for sensitive, dry, normal or oily skin. It leaves skin feeling refreshed and looking radiant. This is my go-to travel beauty secret. The leak-proof canister is the ideal product to take on any trip. 

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. I remember that!  I feel like everyone knows the evian brand name but I wasn't aware The Wilkes Group has been the exclusive worldwide distributor for 36 years. Evian is the only facial spray to be carried by many prestige retail stores and websites including Nordstrom and Sephora. If you have vacationed recently, you may have seen or restocked your supply at one of the many luxury resorts and hotels such as Four Seasons that also carry evian.

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 brand can be found now in over 120 countries worldwide.

The Wilkes Group is giving away a Longchamp "Le Pliage" backpack, in stylish, durable, water-resistant nylon topped with a textured leather handle and logo-embossed flap, which retails at $125. It is filled with one 10 oz., one 5 oz., and a trio of travel-size evian® sprays (over $175.00 total value)

Plus, three runners-up will receive a Longchamp pochette toiletries case, with embossed leather trim in durable, water-resistant nylon, accented with goldtone hardware, which retails at $50, and filled with a trio of travel size evian sprays (over $70.00 total value) This giveaway is hosted by the Wilkes Group. Winners will be chosen at random. You can enter the giveaway here.

BYOU Be Your Own You Magazine for teens and tweens Review + a subscription giveaway #giveaway @byoumagazine

If you have a tween girl you know just how challenging everything can be these days. The ages from 8-14 come with so many changes for girls. Many of the role models, magazines and social networks out there have a lot of information that is just not so suitable for their consumption. What is a mama to do that is looking for some good reading material to feed to her tweens? I am not talking about food either, I am referring to information and entertainment. BYOU Magazine offers a great solution! I like that the magazine bridges a wide range of ages and the stories are great for girls from pre-teen to teenagers. Each issue of the magazine kept her occupied for hours between the articles, the B-Smart puzzles, exercises and games to work on your brain and the crafts. She really loved the crafts...each issue has a seasonally appropriate craft that is not too complicated but interesting enough to keep their attention for a while.

BYOU channels positive messages of self esteem and sprinkles them gently throughout the magazine. BYOU shares lots of great positive entertainment models and blends the stories with education, crafts and fun along with a bit of silliness to balance it all out. The ultimate goal is to empower girls to make their own decisions and to make positive choices.  I love how they seek out healthy role models that teens and tweens look up to and feature them in articles.   BYOU touches on real issues that catch the interest of girls like my daughter. They address those things that they want answers to like how to manage a bully or what to do with friendship issues.  They also focus on staying healthy and moving your body.  The whole essence of the magazine is structured around positivity but in a way that is colorful and keeps their attention.

My tween really enjoyed the issues of the magazine that we received.  Each issue featured covers with teen celebrities like Kelli Berglund. Kelli shared her experiences and positive messages about how she lives her life. My daughter recognized and knew all the celebrities. I was impressed with the stories and the positive role models. The stories and tips the celebrities shared were positive and reaffirmed the ideals we teach in our own home. They all focused on education, personal achievement and following a straight path. The stories and interviews were upbeat and lighthearted...the messages came across in a friendly manner. BYOU magazine is a great resource for tween and teen girls for fun stuff too. Issues had age-appropriate crafts that my daughter loved the B Smart puzzles and quizzes. Those are always a hit...I remember loving puzzles and quizzes in my own teen magazines. It is fun to see the results! 

You can find out more by checking out BYOU Magazine online or checking out an issue in your local bookstore. You can subscribe annually for $17.97 a year or save by getting a two year subscription. You can even choose a digital subscription for less on the BYOU site.  Meanwhile, don't forget to enter my Rafflecopter giveaway for an annual subscription to BYOU magazine.a Rafflecopter giveaway
