Review and Giveaway - Vaseline Sheer Infusion

I first noticed Vaseline Sheer Infusion when it was (and still is) a FREE after RR item at Walgreen's. They are $6.99 and when you purchase one you get a $6.99 Register Reward, essentially making the item FREE. Use the $1.00 off coupon from last Sunday's paper (10/18) and make $1.00. This deal is going on through 10/31. While still contemplating making this purchase myself, I was approached by Rocket XL to test all three types. They also have generously given me 3 full size bottles to giveaway to one lucky reader. Details below following the review...

Scent is an important factor for me in choosing a lotion. I like something that smells nice and works well. Vaseline Sheer Infusion comes in three scents:


Vitamin Burst - is a citrusy fresh scent


Botanical Blend - it a more flowery scent


Mineral Renewal- is a lighter flowery scent (I liked this one the best!)


What is different about Vaseline Sheer Infusion is that it claims to reach all three layers of skin - top, core, and deep down. I tested the lotion in the following situations:


Right before bed: When I woke up in the morning my skin still felt hydrated as if the lotion had just been applied.


My husbands dry knees and elbows: Holy cow! My husband has always had problems with dry knees and elbows. I give him regular "treatments" with different skin lotions and potions. The Vaseline Sheer Infusion seemed to soak in and cover better than other lotions I have used. My husband commented that his knees and elbows felt smoother the following day without having to reapply. Not bad!



My daugther's dry upper arms: My daughter has always had dry upper arms. I applied a small amount on her skin and even now a few days later they feel much more smooth and hydrated.


I would say that Vaseline Sheer Infusion is definitely superior to other lotions I have used in the past. It is more expensive, however, if you can use a coupon and stock up when it is on sale, it can be an affordable addition to your skin regimen.


Hurry by 10/31/2009 and go to Walgreen's and get some FREE after Register Rewards - and go HERE for a $1.50 off coupon, making this a MONEY MAKER!


Or you can just win some here :)! Here are the details of this GIVEAWAY:


I am giving a three pack of Vaseline Sheer Infusion lotions to one lucky reader. This will include all three scents in the 6.8 oz size.

Computer Issues are the Worst!

Our computer has been out of commission for over a week now and I have been going crazy! Okay, not really for a while I enjoyed it - until it was time to go grocery shopping. A computer is a must to find coupon matchups, etc.

Well, we purchased a new computer this week and my hubby just set everything up...so I'm back to blogging. I have a great giveaway coming up and some fun things to share. Please stay tuned...

Works for me Wednesday - Photo Organization

I have always had this dilemma about how to store our digital photos. We purchased our first camera when my nephew was born and we sorted our pictures by family and events (i.e. a folder for my brother's family, a folder for our family, Christmas etc.). When we had our first child we had a folder for his 0-6 months, 6-12 months, etc. When our second child came along we had a dilemma because we started a folder for our daughter. Most of the pictures had both kids in them so we were feverishly trying to put copies in each folder and basically we failed miserably.

We were still using that system when I recently attended an Enrichment Activity at church where we talked about taking photos and photo preservation/storage. I was really impressed by my friend Maggie's explanation about how she stores photos. First of all she has six children and is (or at least seems to be) super organized. Her method just made sense. So much that I went home and reorganized all my photos - and I love it! Now all of our photos are organized by year. That's it. Now that it is 2009 everything gets dumped directly from our digital camera into that folder. Then at the end of the year, I will copy all of the photos onto a disc and store it in our safety deposit box. That if our computer crashes, our house burns down, etc., etc., etc,. I will have all of our photos tucked safely in a secure location. It works for me!
