Bee Sili Oil and Sauce basting Brush

This is one of them items that you did not know you wanted until you actually get one. I love this little basting brush. I have recently started trying to lost weight and I actually think this is going to help!!! It will at the very least help me control how much oil I use from here on out, which is healthy for everyone!!

If you have never seen these before they are so cool and easy to use.
All you have to do is fill it with oil.
On one side there is a spout that you pour your oil from.

Then on the other side is a silicone brush that you spread the oil around with.

You cannot get any easier than that!!!!

I received this for free in exchange for my honest review.

Through the Dark- Electric glitter poppy lip gloss that glows to neon red-orange under UV light 
Kiss You- Orange glitter rush lip gloss that glows to neon yellow under UV light 

Taken - Powerhouse glitter pink lip gloss that glows to neon orange under UV light

I love the way they are contained in the box.. there are the guys on the cover and you can decide which one that you want you use. All the boxes have the same make up in them and so you do not have to choose which palette you use.

I love how the colors are so vibrant and how they work for many skin types. You can use one color or you can use several. Depending on your day time look and your night time look you can create a look for any time and any occasion!!

Let me start by giving you some information about Sephora.

Sephora is a visionary beauty-retail concept founded in France by Dominique Mandonnaud in 1970. Sephora's unique, open-sell environment features an ever-increasing amount of classic and emerging brands across a broad range of product categories including skincare, color, fragrance, body, smilecare, and haircare, in addition to Sephora's own private label. 

Today, Sephora is not only the leading chain of perfume and cosmetics stores in France, but also a powerful beauty presence in countries around the world. 

To build the most knowledgeable and professional team of product consultants in the beauty industry, Sephora developed "Science of Sephora." This program ensures that our team is skilled to identify skin types, have knowledge of skin physiology, the history of makeup, application techniques, the science of creating fragrances, and most importantly, how to interact with Sephora's diverse clientele. 

Owned by LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, the world's leading luxury goods group, Sephora is highly regarded as a beauty trailblazer, thanks to its unparalleled assortment of prestige products, unbiased service from experts, interactive shopping environment, and innovation. 

Sephora stores – Sephora operates approximately 1,900 stores in 29 countries worldwide, with an expanding base of over 360 stores across North America. Sephora opened its first U.S. store in New York in 1998, its first Canadian store in Toronto in 2004. Sephora's North American headquarters is located in San Francisco, with corporate offices in New York and Montreal.

Sephora.com - Launched in the U.S. in 1999 and Canada in 2003, the foremost beauty site on the Internet is also Sephora's largest North American store in terms of sales and selection of products and brands. 

Beauty Insider - In 2007, Sephora launched a client loyalty program as a way of thanking clients with special products, exclusive information, and an all-access pass to personalized beauty. The Beauty Insider program is available in Sephora stores nationwide and at www.sephora.com. In 2009, Sephora launched V.I.B. [Very Important Beauty Insider], a premium level for Beauty Insiders giving clients access to exclusive gifts, event invitations, and early access to select products. 

Sephora inside JCPenney - JCPenney began opening Sephora inside JCPenney stores in October 2006. That original launch has turned into a phenomenon. Today, there are Sephora locations in JCPenney stores nationwide. These stores are smaller than a normal store with approximately 1,500 square feet but they are located in the center of the store and feature the signature Sephora look and beauty offering.

Measure Pro IRT20 Temperature Gun

My husband has been asking for one of these for awhile now.... I received this one for free in exchange for my honest review. The infrared temp gun is amazing. It actually uses laser technology. MeasuPro offers a unique version of the infrared thermometer to make it easy to get a precise temperature reading with no direct surface contact necessary. Using advanced laser technology, you can aim the temperature gun on any spot and get an accurate reading even on moving targets. This non-contact infrared thermometer has been designed for a broad range of uses including automotive diagnostics, HVAC service, electrical troubleshooting, cooking, and food preparation. When using it around the kitchen while cooking or baking this thermometer eliminates the need for messy direct contact in order to measure. It is ultra-efficient and easy to use. Features advanced ergonomic design and rugged construction for industrial environments, the finish is made of rubber oil and is sweat-proof.
 
The unit looks a lot heavier in the pictures than what it actually is... I weighed it at less than 6 ounces. It also comes with its own 9 volt battery and has a 7 second hold before turning off - more than enough time to read the display yet be really conservative on the battery.
It is super easy to use, just point and hit the trigger!!
I hope you like this as much as I do... you get this product on Amazon  here.
