REVIEW : GIRL LANE AUTUMN ESSENTIALS PACK

These two are back with another video review for Girl Lane

 

 

 

The Blurb from Girl Lane:

 

Summer is sadly behind us, and may have left young skin with sun damage, flakiness or thickened, "weathered" skin. And winter is just around the corner, the season that is the harshest of all on fragile skin.

Girl Lane have put together the perfect autumn essential skincare must-haves for your girls' to help protect their skin from cooler winds and feel at their very best!

The sun may feel less powerful, but it's rays can still be damaging. UVA and UVB can cause skin cancer, pigmentation and early aging (wrinkles) and the sun is not discriminating. No matter your skin type, the sun will damage it. Always apply a daily face sunscreen for protection.

Intensive Hydration Mist

High in Aloe Vera, the Girl Lane Hydration Mist is soothing and moisturising for the face and body. Using a hydration mist as part of a daily routine and also after swimming or sports, will combat dryness and also prepare the skin for the harsh cold of winter. Hold the spray 10-20cm away from the face and spray twice a day and reapply when needed.

 

 

RRP $11.99

High Protection Sunscreen

The sun may feel less powerful, but it's rays can still be damaging. UVA and UVB can cause skin cancer, pigmentation and early aging (wrinkles) and the sun is not discriminating. No matter your skin type, the sun will damage it. Always apply a daily face sunscreen for protection.

 

 

RRP $9.99

Tropical Pap Paw Lip Balm

The cool Autumn breeze can quickly lead to chapped lips. Start protecting lips by applying a moisturising balm each and every day. Buff the lips with your toothbrush to gently exfoliate for soft, supple skin.

 

 

RRP $5.49

Gentle Cleansing Wipes

Girl Lane Face Wipes will clean and help remove dry skin from the face. The wipes contain Aloe and Chamomile for increased hydration and softness. A simple and convenient alternative to face wash, girls find them handy to pop in their school or sports bag, for a fuss free clean on the go!

 

RRP $6.99

REVIEW - Crayola Color Alive

Brought to you by Nuffnang and Crayola School holidays
Rainy day
What to do??
Enter Crayola's Color Alive


All you need is a Crayola Color Alive book,
Crayons (you can use your own)
And an electronic device that can download the app from
the Apple store, Google Play store or the Windows store. 
Now don't go thinking that this is just another colour in book
Because it isn't!!
4D interactiveness (is that even a word yet?!)
Means you the Crayola Color Alive books can do so much more.

First step is to colour in.
(You can use the app with the uncoloured pages as well!)

Next step is to download the app.
It's free and available in the app stores
Or via the QR code on the Crayola Color Alive books.



Choose the book you used.  

  Then it's play, play, play!  

  Take selfies or add characters to your photos.
Bring characters to life with cool 4D effects



Each pack comes with a special effects crayon.
This little crayon has magical powers, through the app,
That allow you to add special effects to the image -
Comic symbols for Marvel Avengers, fire for Mythical Creatures,
Ice sparkles for Disney Frozen and pixie dust for Enchanted Fairies.

 
The packs available are

Crayola Color Alive Mythical Creatures

Crayola Color Alive Disney Frozen

The girls all enjoyed the packs and giggled away
As they interacted with the characters on the app.
You can make the characters grow, move
And even see them from up, behind and upfront.
Save your characters and use them in backgrounds you create yourself.
Yep, lots of fun
And not just for school holidays

Or rainy days!

REVIEW–Fujifilm Instax Share Smartphone Printer SP-1

I am excited to be able to share with you a review of the
Fuijifilm Instax Share Smartphone Printer.
This printer is so easy to use all you need is

1. The printer
2. A Smartphone/Tablet with the downloaded “Instax Share” App

Yep that is it!!!

Here is a video I put together,
of how to use the printer
And me printing out my first Instax photo
(nervously I might add!)

This printer is really easy to use
And so very portable.
I’ll be back later with more on this very cool gadget.

REVIEW – Little Live Pets

47 sleeps till Christmas.
Yeah I know!!!
How is the present hunting going?
Have you started yet??

Our girls have been dropping hints,
Formulating lists
And eyeballing all manner of catalogues.
A while back they spied a tv commercial for the popular Little Live Pets
By the toy brand Moose Enterprises.

So imagine the delight of our girls when an email hit my inbox
Asking if we would like to review one of these adorable creatures.
How could I say no?!

And so “Cheeky Charlie” arrived
With a very cute note from the PR ladies.

I left the box on the dining table
And waited for the girls to find him after school

They were all very excited
And he was soon brought to life and given a test run.

He sings,
He whistles,
And he can even repeat what you say!

Having him made me think about a Great Aunt of mine.
She used to have a budgie and would teach him all manner of whistles and phrases.
Meeting “Cheeky Charlie” made me think how perfect a Little Live Pet would have been for my Aunt.
He could have visited hospitals.
He wouldn’t need to have his cage cleaned.
He wouldn’t even fly away if the cage was inadvertently left open.

But enough of my words and thoughts
Let the real reviewers have their say.

Little Live Pet Birds are currently available in Target, Toys R Us, Kmart, Big W, Toyworld and Myer

There’ll Always Be Sunshine

Very excited to share that I was asked by the lovely Anita Rodway to do some guest work for

FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/FlutterbyDesignsAus
STORE: http://flutterbydesigns.bigcartel.com/

I just love Anita’s products (see the wood veneer and flair) and had fun making a few things.

For this page I’ve pulled bits from my “I WANNA PLAY WITH THIS” stash,

Added a sprinkle of fun

And a whole lot of heart.

I like where that little journey took me.

You can see how I put this page together, in this video

 

Did I mention it was a lot of fun??
That’s what the Flutterby Design products are.
Fun!
Thanks Anita for allowing me to guest for you.

Love Is Louder

Over the last couple of days I’ve made a couple of videos,
For various things,
And it’s inspired me to make some more “Behind The Page” videos.

This video is showing the steps in creating this page

Inspired by the words of Kid President and a blurry photo.
Can’t ignore that type of inspiration!!

But I am all buckled in and ready for the ride.

Happy New Year everyone.
Stay safe, stay cool.

Just Give Me A Fork And A Spoon

What’s your favourite meal?

I love breakfast

But I seriously do love a good lunch

A lunch with my love would top TOP top the list!

And a lunch, with my love, somewhere new

Would have to top TOP TOP that list!

And if I get to make a scrap layout about it
Even better
And if I make a video to share…
Yep, that’s a whole new list to top!

But hey, that’s what I did

So that makes me quite a few lists that I’ve topped!!

What does one do when they have a clean desk?
Make it messy again?
Or make a video?
Or both?!

Just some close ups of a page I created this morning

As I made a video to share.

Inspired by a clean desk

And a story that was waiting to burst onto paper

So here is the page

and here is the video

And as always,
Thanks for visiting!
