Little Snowbird Children's Tea

It is always a pleasure to be able to include my children when I work. My children are all under the age of six so it is sometimes difficult to include them all the time. My oldest enjoys helping dad make scent samples for my candle business. My youngest likes to sniff the candles whenever the new Candle of the Month arrives around the 5th of the month but it is never enough. They always want to do more! With that said, I was so excited to be able to do the review for Little Snowbird Children's Tea. Actually, I should say my children were very excited as they were able to drink some new flavors of tea.

I normally buy the Celestial Seasonings at my local Walmart. These teas do fairly well and come in a variety of flavors that my children love. With Little Snowbird we were able to experience some new and different flavors. We were sent Chocolate Cheesecake, Hot Fudge Sundae, and Strawberry Shortcake samples, one tea bag of each flavor. I was unsure how much one bag would make so I compared with what I normally make with the Celestial Seasonings. My children like Iced Tea so I boiled 2 quarts of water then added the one Strawberry Shortcake tea bag along with the Sugar. We don't use regular sugar but rather the generic sugar like Splenda (Altern). The strength of the tea was perfect and my biggest tea drinker (2 yr old) loved it. My son who is 6 loved it too. My 4 year old could care less but he is the Chocolate milk and juice drinker,rarely drinks tea unless it is all I have available. I normally have to use 2 tea bags with this amount of water with Celestial Seasonings so this tea makes more than my normal brand. This strength was actually stronger than what the children are used too so I decided to take it a little further and make one gallon with the next tea bag, chocolate cheesecake. This batch turned out to be the same strength with one bag as when I use 4 bags of the Celestial Seasonings. They did drink this batch a little slower so a happy median would be somewhere between 2 quarts and a gallon with one tea bag or even using one bag with the 2 quarts.

These teas were for small children but teas for older children and adults are available for purchase along with gift certificates. My children and I were very pleased with the samples we received and I highly recommend others giving Little Snowbird a try. We will be buying in the near future.

Avon

I signed up with Avon over a year ago to buy for myself and for gift giving at Christmas. I never had any intentions of working the business since my primary business with candles keeps me busy. Well, I let the time pass without buying anything from AVON so recently I paid my $10 fee to rejoin. My sponsor had always told me to buy the shampoo every other campaign so I would stay active. Well, I didn't but some exciting news, when signing up again recently I was able to receive the 50% off the first 4 campaigns as I did over a year ago. Nice perk with Avon!

During this recent signup I purchased the shampoo and another product I want to share with you today, the plump pout lip gloss! Lets start with the shampoo, it works wonderfully! I feel like I have been to the Salon every morning. I guess I should have listened to my sponsor. ha
I purchased the 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner which surprised me since I usually still have to use extra conditioner since my hair is so thick. My hair felt so clean and it combed through easily.

Ever since the popular lip augmentation for fuller lips craze began several years back, I have always wanted to make my upper lip fuller but never with surgery. lol forget that! I have purchased several plump pout lip glosses from other companies but I believe I will be using Avon from now on. The gloss comes in several shades and my favorite part is the paint type brush used to apply. All the others were a ball type and never did much for me. I feel like an artist now when I apply the lip gloss. It gives that stingy feeling when first applied like your lips are getting fuller and it last practically all day. I'm confident others will enjoy the lip gloss and shampoo once they haven given it a try.

Like I said earlier, Avon is not my business so please contact Lori for all your lip gloss and shampoo needs. Shop online at her Avon site.
