I am doing a small giveaway of a few products I bought to try.
Normally when I try new things I always buy a second to give to a friend so we can try it together. This gives me someone to compare it with. Keeping with that spirit I went to Bath and Body Works across the border and bought a few candles (for those of you that know me you know I LOVE to burn candles). Bath and Body Works had a hugs sale happening but because I've never bought from them before I only bought small trial sized candles, until I get a feel for their products and decide if I officially like them or not.
One of you will get to try three of their scents with me :) Isn't that exciting?

Contest closes May 15th @8pm Pacific Time and is open internationally
I found a few more goodies to throw into my Christmas Giveaway Basket.
I realize they're nothing to ooh or aaah over but I'm not sure why I didn't think of adding something like this before.
Being a Body Shop lover they had a sale for travel sized shower gel. I have an obsession with small things...little things. Little people, little accessories...they're so cute!!
That being said I'm gonna throw in these two shower gels.
I also found this really cute ring at Icing's by Claire's.
I LOVE jewelery and I thought this was really funky!
And lastly because I'm such a firm believer in saving our planet and I practice the three R's religiously, I will include this strawberry reusable bag.
So there you have it, three more things to add to my Christmas Giveaway....remember this?
If you haven't already entered don't forget to do so.
I've been working on this giveaway for quite some time now and I know it may not seem like much but I've been buying a few things here and there as I saw fit for this giveaway.
You will find a little bit of everything in this goody basket and once the winner is randomly picked I will wrap it up for the season :) Good enough to keep for yourself or good enough to give to your mom, sister aunt or cousin.
You will find an array of makeup, bracelets, nail polishes, eyelash curler, Lush bath bomb, a pair of sunglasses and so much more, but let me stop rambling and just show you.
This is my way of saying thank you to all my loyal followers.
God Bless!

I wanted to say that I absolutely adore music, all kinds!! Well okay maybe not all kinds. I'm pretty open to most, but the heavy Rap and the Heavy Metal just makes me want to bash my head in so I choose to stay away from it. For the most part music is my life. I listen to it, I sing it, I try to compose it on my dusty key board, I Guitar Hero it, I LOVE it! It's everywhere I go and I can honestly say that my life would be very boring without it. Anway, I wanted to play a little game with you all that will result in one lucky winner winning a $30 gift card to HMV. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have deciding to create this game. (If somebody else has already done this before, my bad! I didn't feel like doing research to check, either way who cares, it's all for fun!)
NOTE: This is not part of my monthly contest, this is just for fun and because I was bored! :)
The Game
On my blog you will see a Pop Out Music player. There are 15 hand picked songs one each from a particularly famous movie from way back, to now. I realize some songs may have been used in tons of movies but I'm almost positive these are specific to certain movies. (Keep in mind, there are NO wrong answers!)
The Rules It's pretty basic. Name the movies these songs has been made famous for/used in.

With Softlips Organic Lip Balm you too can have kissable lips in minutes.
The key to great looking natural lips, is having healthy lips.
With summer right around the corner I've come to the realization that though a lot of us pay special attention to our skin, not so many of us take care of our lips. Our lips do all the talking for us. They pout, they kiss, they eat, they drink. When you think of everything we do in a day, our lips absorb a lot.Why not thank them with a conditioning lip balm that's organic and is sure to have them kissably ready in minutes?
THE GIVEAWAY!
I will be giving away three wonderfully flavored Softlips Organic Lip Balms. Pomegranate, Acai Berry and Peppermint, and just for good measure I'll throw in a Strawberry Reusable Bag.
Entry Requirments:
Let me know what your favorite lip product is and why.

Contest Closes June 25th at 8pm Pacific time. Open to Canadian and US residents only.
Say no to paper or plastic and bring your own bags to the store.
Reusable bags are an environmentally friendly way to shop, and with cute designs like these, how can you resist?
I first fell in love with these reusable bags when I went to the National Womens Show in Toronto last year with my cousin and my mom. They ALWAYS have great give-aways, samples, and neat ideas so it was the place to be for me.
What I love about these bags is that they're tiny and very convenient! I simply loop them through my purse straps and off I go! Or, if you want to be a little more tactful, throw a few into your purse or bag, they really don't take up much space at all! I always carry one with me, because you never know when you'll need it, and trust me, they carry quite a bit.Not to mention they're very cute and fashionable and they make a great gift!
THE GIVEAWAY!
I will generously be giving one lucky reader three(3) of these fabulous bags.
Entry Requirments:
1. Let me know what you do to help the environment.
