"Stopain..and Go" GIVEAWAY with Review (ENDED)

Winner is Sarah L

As the temperature drops and the snow piles up, there's no better time to try out the Pain- Relieving products from "Stopain Cold".  Did you know it is estimated 76.5 million Americans suffer from incidences of pain, especially in the cool Winter months?

A few hours of shoveling the 40+ centimeters (that's almost 16 inches by the way!) in our double driveway last weekend and I was "aching" to give their cool, refreshing gel a try.  The first thing I noticed was its fresh menthol scent.  It was quickly absorbed into my skin and once I curled up on the sofa with a steaming cup of hot chocolate, I was feeling relaxed and refreshed, just like after a good workout at the gym.

The active ingredient in Stopain is menthol which is recognized by the FDA as an analgesic indicated for the temporary relief of minor pains and stiffness of arthritis, muscle aches, strains and simple backaches.  Stopain also contains peppermint oil and eucalyptus oil recognized by the FDA for their analgesic properties.  Extra-Strength Stopain formulas also contain glucosamine and MSM, essential nutrients that support joint health and mobility.

Stopain is also proud to be a Proceeds Sponsor of the Arthritis Foundation with a portion of the proceeds from every unit of Stopain products sold donated to the Arthritis Foundation (with a minimum contribution of $25,000!).

Decorating Facelift On A Budget!

Getting back to the never-ending redesign of our daughter's bedroom, I wanted to share the amazing makeover of the old fireplace that's in her room.  It takes up an entire end wall when you include the bookcases on either side but for me the exposed redish brick inside the fireplace wasn't working.

(Sorry I didn't get a before photo but this is very close to how it looked)

After a quick tour around the basement of one of our better tile shops, I found just enough marble tiles in their cheap ends to transform her fireplace with these:

Here's how it looks now:

Big impact on a tight budget!

(Oh and the decorative basket holds artwork, no fires for her!)

CAPTIVA Swimwear GIVEAWAY with Review (ENDED)

Winner is Theresa M

If you're wondering how to show off your curves on a tropical vacation or at the nearest swimming pool this Summer, check out the figure-flattering swimwear from CAPTIVA's new collection!

Yes, those fabulous gals of Body Wrap are at it again, this time bringing us another incredible line of swimwear!

I was so excited when I was given the opportunity to review not one but TWO of their feminine and colorful swimsuits.  The CAPTIVA collection is so beautiful but I managed to narrow down my selections to the Pensacola and Coquina Bay lines:

Here are the pretty styles I chose:

From the Pensacola Line, I have the Reef Halter Tankini with matching Breeze Skirted Bottom and from the Coquina Bay Line, I have the Suncatcher Bandini with removable straps and matching Sea Orchid Skirted Bottom.

These are super soft and made with a nice blend of elastine so they are comfortable to wear without feeling tight.  They are lightweight making them quick drying and perfect for packing.  The tops are lightly padded without that uncomfortable stiffness you find in other swimsuits and I love the vibrant colors and bold patterns.  

Here's a sneak peek at some of their striking patterns and styles:

Fabulous Prints!

Stylish and Sexy!

Figure Flattering!

 Also Offering

 A Line For Full-Figured Gals
