Nescafe 2-in-1 Coffee+Coffee mate Creamer Review for Smiley360



I'm a Smiley360 member and I got this product for free to taste and give my reviews.I got to taste test the French Vanilla Flavor. It is very easy to prepare and with in seconds a hot, creamy, sweet  and delicious  beverage is ready to drink.

Take 6-8 oz hot water in a Mug and add 2 Tbsp of NESCAFÉ with Coffee-mate, stir thoroughly and VoilĂ  the beverage is ready no need to add sugar and creamer is already inside it. Enjoy!

 I work at a School and  it is almost impossible for me to leave my workplace to grab a cup of coffee from a coffee store because you never know how long it will take for them to make your your order. You never know how long it will take to cross the street.The K-cup Coffee maker in our place is being used by a lot of people so I kind of feel that  it might have lots of germs on it. then there is an issue with storing creamer separately and then grabbing the k-cups and the creamer  running to the coffee maker. If I miss to pick one of these items then I have to race back on a time crunch. None of that any more.

So, this product will definitely be used by me a lot. All I'll have to do is take some hot water in a Thermos from my home and quickly make this yummy beverage. French vanilla flavor comes out very well in this Product you can taste it and smell it. Storing one jar is easier than storing k-cups separately and the  creamer separately.

Thanks Nescafe for coming up with this new idea and thanks Smiley360 for letting me try it.

Vaseline Intensive Care Review for Influenster

Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Fragrance Free Lotion

As a member of website called Influenster, Influenster I get to try free products and give my opinion.I'm not compensated in any other way besides getting free products to try.All the opinions are  solely mine or provided by my family members.

This time I got to try a full sized bottle of  Vaseline Intensive care Advanced Repair Fragrance Free Lotion, for free. I had been a long time fan and user of their petroleum Jelly and some other products. But I was not at all aware of their this new product until I got to try it from Influenster. I'm glad that I got to try to see it if I like the product or not.

This product is clinically proven to heal very dry skin in 5 days.I have somewhat dry skin and it gets worsen during the cold winter months when the air is extremely dry and very cold. I have to keep applying some lotion all the time.

This lotion has Micro droplets of Vaseline Jelly and it is combined with their highest levels of moisturizing Glycerine. My kit came with a skin test patch of before and after  use. My skin tested for Dry skin as I had thought, then I use the lotion for 5 days (during this period I didn't use any other lotion or moisturizer.

I was very pleased with the results and when I tested my skin again I found out that it indeed had become soft and wasn't so dry any more. I'm not sensitive to fragrances in my lotion but  I would recommend it to people who can't tolerate fragrances in their personal care products.

I found this lotion to be fast absorbing and non-greasy. I sometimes have issues with a greasy lotions because they soil my clothes but I didn't have any such issue with this lotion.

SECRET OUTLAST COMPLETELY CLEAN CLEAR GEL



Hi My Blog Readers,
                      I'm a BzzAgent and as a BzzAgent I get to enjoy free Products  to try from leading Companies and give my honest opinions.

                     So,this time I got to try Secret Outlast Completely Clean Clear Gel. I had been a solid deodorant user my entire life and I had never tried the Gel type Deodorant so obviously I was excited, skeptical and lots of others emotions were going through my mind. One fine day my free full sized product came to my house.It was a 2.7 oz container and not a travel size container.I was very happy.

I opened the lid to take a first whiff and I liked the fresh , clean scent that was little bit leaning towards sports deodorant type of smells.Since I didn't realize what scent I was going to get until it came to my door so I was very surprised how much I loved the scent.I would definitely try to use their Powder Protection scent.

My concern with Solid type of Deodorants were that they would dry up and the whole stick would fall apart. This problem will definitely get solved  and I loved the scent so that's a good thing. I sweat a lot but not excessively so this product is perfect for me.However at my School I have my own control and heating and cooling system(In fact the whole building and all the rooms are centrally controlled by the district except my room.

I crank up the heat when kids are not in my room because I'm the only one in the Library but when students come to me it gets very warm quickly and it gets sweaty that's when the problems of odor comes to me. I carry a travel size deodorant in my purse all the time so that I can quickly go to the restroom and apply it again.

When I tried this product I refrained myself from re-applying the deodorant because I wanted to check how long does the scent and the effect of freshness from Secret Outlast Gel, last.


I didn't do the 48 hours test but it did pass the 8 hour test for me and when I was heading home I was still feeling fresh and the deodorant smell was there ,it was faint but it was there. I also tried it with a black shirt on and my guess was that there will be a wet sticky spot there but guess what the product dries up really fast.

Here are some of the facts about this product that I learned and would love to share it with you:
1. It spreads easily and evenly not leaving blobs behind.
2. It has fast drying ingredients for the product to dry out fast after application and not having to wait for it to dry and we don't end up having a wet patch on our clothes.
3. Its water based formula helps the active ingredients in it, to enter sweat glands faster than other products.
4. No white marks of course as I said earlier.
5. 48 hour protection because the PH of Secret Outlast Gel minimizes the odor causing bacteria to form.
 I was at Macy's  departmental Store yesterday , shopping. I wanted to buy something to wear for the Christmas. They had some shirts really marked down to $11.00 so I started searching a good looking shirt that was in my size.They had some black and some green ones there. I didn't like the green color's T shirts' shade. I love wearing Back but because of the fear for ugly white marks I used to limit myself from buying black colored clothes.

Suddenly I had a song on lips and I guess that I gave a thumbs up to myself because now I had a deodorant that would eliminate my problem of white marks. So I'm going to have a fun time wearing it with any embarrassment or  with out having to refrain myself from holding my arms up. 

This is the Picture of my beautiful Black T-shirt.




Give it  a try and I bet that you will love it as much as I do.

Arla Dofino Cheese Reviews for BzzAgent



Arla Dofino Cheese Reviews for BzzAgent

I'm a BzzAgent which means that I get to try various products for free and give my honest opinions. So far I have tried over 20 Products in the past 2 years and I have several more to try. Visit www.bzzagent.com to learn more about it. BzzAgent sends me free Products or free product coupons and then I try them over a period of time and submit my reviews to help other people learn about these Products.

As you can see from the title that this time I tried Arla Dofino Cheese. These Cheeses are sold in Fred Meyer's, Kroger,QFC and several such stores. Visit their website for lots of info about their cheeses and also get recipes from there .http://www.arla.com/en-us/


I love Havarti Cheese and I have tried this type of cheese made from some other brands but I had never ever tried Arla Dofino Havarti Cheese. In fact I had never even heard about this cheese before I got in to this Campaign and thank goodness that I did this review. Now I know about these delicious Cheeses.

Arla Dofino besides making  Havati (Havarti comes in flavors like Creamy Dill,Caraway,Jalapeno sliced or in blocks) makes lots of other variety of cheeses like Edam, Fontina, Gouda.

HavartiGoudaEdamFontina

I couldn't find any other cheese besides Havarti Creamy Type so I'll be talking about Arla Dofino Creamy Havarti Block Cheese. This Cheese can be had a snack or can be used in Cooking too.For snacking it is easy to slice or cut in to pieces and for cooking I grate it for it to melt evenly and I can spread it easily.

Arla Dofino Cheeses are manufactured naturally using very little ingredients and there are no added Hormones, Preservatives or Artificial Coloring.The Creamy Havarti has Pasteurized Milk,Salt,Microbial Rennet and Cheese Culture. It is as simple as that and it has no mysterious sounding ingredients that I can't identify or even pronounce or spell it without looking.Their packaging is also going to be 100% recyclable by 2020.

I tried it as a snack with Crackers, Rustic Bread and Crisp bagel chips since all these items had different textures and taste so I wanted to see how each one tastes with Havarti Cheese.I sliced it in to thin slices and topped it on these items and ate it. It went very well with all these snacks that everybody is familiar with. The cheese was creamy but still had texture wasn't the spreadable kind of creaminess , was wholesome and delicious. It wasn't very strong and wasn't too mild either. I'm not very fond of strong tasting cheeses so if you are some one like me that can't stand sharp cheese taste then this might be a perfect fit for you too.

Here is my platter:
The next evening my Husband e-mailed me that he has to go out for dinner with a group of people that have come to his workplace from their Texas branch.So I decided to make Grilled cheese Sandwich using Arla Dofino Creamy Havarti Cheese because I wasn't sure how the final product will be.Normally when I make Grilled cheese sandwich I put slices of beef steak tomato and few leaves of basil but I wanted to concentrate on the taste and texture and melting quality of the cheese so I decided not to put anything. I absolutely loved it and I left one piece for my just in case  he would want something later before going to bed. It turned out that he didn't like the food at the restaurant so he wanted to eat something at home.

I gave him the left over piece and he totally liked it and wanted to have it the next day for dinner  with some tomato soup since it was snowing a bit and it was extremely cold so this would have been our comfort food to fill up our belly and feel cozy and warm,

I felt that I still haven't baked anything with it. So, one night I decided to make baked Penne pasta.I started looking for a recipe but most of the recipes that I saw needed ingredients that I didn't have it at home and it was very icy on the streets so we were not  going anywhere. We had a snow day that day so it was a very lazy day and we wanted something very satisfying.

Here is what I made with Arla Dofino Creamy Havarti.

1 cup Boiled and drained Penne pasta (I mixed some elbow macaroni also in it because I had very little quantity of both).
some chopped onion and garlic (I would have put vegetables like Mushrooms, Zucchini if I had them).However I did make it again using these items but we were so eager to taste that I didn't take any pictures.
1 small can of tomato sauce (thanks for my couponing I had some canned tomato products in my pantry)
1 Cup grated Havarti Cheese

I sauteed onion and garlic in olive oil until they were soft and then added the tomato sauce.I let it simmer for a little bit until the sauce became slightly thick.Then drained Penne pasta was added and mixed thoroughly. I buttered a baking dish and poured the mixture in it. I spread the cheese on top and broiled it in the oven on high heat for 5-7 minutes. It came out very well, it was simple but extremely delicious. My husband normally doesn't talk much about the food that he is eating and always says that he eating it which means it is good.But this time he complimented me on preparing it.He also told me that we need more of Arla Dofino Cheeses and we need to look for some other variety.

I hope that you will love these cheeses as much as we do in our household. There are some awesome recipes on their website so enjoy trying them.
