This Frugal Family

I have loved Sprout for a while now.  Sprout is a pencil that has seeds, for you, to plant.  I love this product.  Instead of throwing away your used pencil, you plant it, and get beautiful flowers, herbs, or even trees.  This time around, we got Spruce trees.  I know they will make beautiful trees, in the future.  For now, they are pencils, and my son uses the pencils for school.  I also received a yellow pencil that is Daisy flowers.  I’ll be planting it in the spring. Jacob, my 11-year-old, loves using Sprout.  He likes that he can plant it, as well.  My daughter, age 25, loves that she can take them to school, and let her kids try something green.  She’s a teacher at a great school, and the kids love this concept.  She has already taken a few, and planted 1, to my knowledge. Sprout has now started making make up liners too.  These are amazing and give you the perfect look every time.  Amazing colors with a beautiful look, when done.  Again, you’ll be able to plant the seeds, in the tip, when you have used the makeup pencil to the end.  Two uses out of…

I love Mineral Hygienics so much.  It’s new to us, and it’s so refreshing.  I don’t have that feeling of heavy makeup on my face, when I’m wearing it.  It leaves me feeling fresh, and not at all like a caked monster.  I love the way it goes on, nice and easy.  Not a powdery look at all.  And, the make up is all water resistant. It’s so easy to apply, especially with the instructions that were included in the starter kit.  There are 15 starter kits to choose from.  One for each skin tone.  I have fair skin, so I use the fair.  Mineral Hygienics makes it so easy to choose your colors. The kit pictured above comes with the following items, in your choice of shades: Your Mineral Hygienics Starter Kit includes: 2 shades of Mineral Hygienics SPF Foundation Mineral Hygienics Warm Kiss mineral enhancer Mineral Hygienics Sheer Perfection – Translucent finishing powder Flawless Face Mineral Brush Full Coverage Kabuki Brush Wonder Cover Concealer Brush Detailed How-To Guide For new customers, you can get a sample of their foundation, and you can upgrade by adding other things to your sample.  This is a great way to test your…

COSTOFFS I received my Costoffs’ Makeup case last week, and immediately stored all of my makeup in it.  It’s so nice to have everything in one place.  Yes, I have a ton of makeup.  In my defense, it didn’t all start out as mine, the colors I adore were given to me, by a friend. The 4-in-1 Rolling Cosmetic Case holds everything I need in one place.  The top (take off) case, I put all of my Dipsy Dip merchandise in.  (If you’re a fan of This Frugal Family, you know I’m a consultant.)   The next tray, I put all of the makeup that would fit, the next tray, the rest.  And, the bottom, I had many makeup travel bags, that I put all in the big compartment. Everything I have fits beautifully.  I couldn’t ask for a better product.  I love the color, and the style.  And, I love the fact that everything is held, with ease.  I can pull it around, on it’s wheels, with no problem. The compartments are a great size, with the bottom one being even larger.  I love this Cosmetic Case, and am so proud to own it.  What makes it extra special to…

Divaderme cosmetics are so great.  I gave this product to my mother in law, who has very thinning eye lashes.  This is due to health problems, but she uses her Divaderme every day.  She loves it.  She says she feels like her lashes are fuller, when she has it on. I was sent the Fiber Wings Mascara II, which is a clear mascara that seems to give the lashes a lift.  I was also sent Lash Extender II, which she agrees, definitely makes the lashes appear longer.  My mother in law says she’s been looking for a product like this, since 2010, when she was diagnosed with cancer.  She has super thinning hair, every where.  So this makes her feel more beautiful than she already is. The following is for the Lash Extender II: PRODUCT FEATURES Instantly lengthen and volumize lashes up to 1000%. Create full, lush lashes without harsh chemicals or artificial ingredients. Instant gratification with long-term benefits all in one bottle. Safe for contact lens wearers. Divaderme also has other makeup, like a brow extender.  We didn’t get to try this out, but she would’ve loved it, as well.  She says she will be purchasing it, soon.  You can…

My daughter, and I, love Models Own.  It’s so sensual, and fabulous.  They have loads of products, that we just had to try, and we have our favorites.  You, too, will love Models Own, once you try it. The Liquid Eyeliner is my daughter’s favorite.  She wears it, to work, everyday.  It enhances her eyes, and makes her eyes more beautiful than the already are.  I like it, too, but have a different favorite.  She says she gets so many comments on her eyeliner, and she tells them all, “It’s Models Own”.  This Eyeliner defines and contours.  Perfect for a big interview, or a last minute date.  The I-Definer Liquid Eye Liner is $8.99. My favorites, let me break this down, is the eye pallettes.  Not just one, but all of them.  I love having eye shadow on my eyes, and Models Own has some awesome colors.  The eye pallette, pictured above, is my fave, but the blues & greens are just as amazing.  Take a look on their site, to check out the eye pallettes.  The Eye Shadow Pallettes are $14.99.
