Hello! I am back with another Carmex review. Since, I am a member of the Carmex Blog Squad I always get sent any new or upcoming products to test out, and I love it because Carmex makes really good products. They also always send me really cute kits to try out and to send to my lucky readers.
Anyway, this time was no different. They sent me a very neat kit full of Carmex goodies and it came with the new Pomegranate flavor lip balm stick.
The kit came with a beach bag and six flavors of lip balms! The flavors include original, cherry, strawberry, vanilla, lime twist, and pomegranate. Which I think is enough lip balm to last me for the next few years!
These lip balms are very popular, but if you have never tried them they are ultra moisturizing. They go on very easily and smoothly. I really like that they are made with SPF 15 water resistant sunscreen. They are the perfect lip balm for the beach and this summer heat. It's like putting sun block on your lips, so you know that the skin on your lips are being protected from the sun's harmful rays.
Speaking of the beach, I finally got to go to the beach today! I haven't been able to go yet all summer. So, I was super excited to go today and I was so thankful that Carmex sent me this lovely kit. I used the Lime Twist lip balm on my lips and I used the handy beach bag as well. I loved the little zippered bag that comes attached to the beach bag, I was able to keep my cell phone and headphones protected from the sand in there. The bag was plenty big enough to keep everything I wanted to bring, including my beach towel, sunglasses, hat, water bottle, clothes, flip flops, and sun lotions.

DVD Review: “The Smurfs and the Magic Flute” (& Giveaway Ends 8/5)
BY CHER
The Smurfs and the Magic Flute
Released: August 14, 2012
Studio: Shout! Factory
Running Time: 71 minutes
ABOUT:
A magical flute is just what Court Jester Peewit needs to play delightful tunes that make everyone in the kingdom dance – until the dancing turns dangerous. Sir Johan tries in vain to recover the musical instrument, but a thief named McCreep beats him to it, intending to use the flute to steal gold from the King’s subjects. It’s the Smurfs-to-the-rescue when Papa Smurf devises a plan to create a second magical flute, and Peewit and Sir Johan go on a great adventure to find McCreep, win the musical duel and save the kingdom!
MY THOUGHTS:
I loved the Smurfs when I was younger and I love how they are bringing them back to life on DVD! We actually watched this movie as a family and my boys thought the Smurfs were so funny! I will say they were a little anxious and disappointed that the Smurfs didn’t appear until after 30 minutes, but when they did it was smurfing-fun! If you are looking for a strictly – Smurf movie then this may not be the right one since it is only half-Smurfs (and I don’t remember some of the popular Smurf characters like Smurfette and Gargamuel being in it either) but it is a classic cartoon movie and entertaining in itself. We will be watching this again!
BUY IT: You can buy “The Smurfs and the Magic Flute” wherever DVDs are sold or check it out online for $14.93.
WIN IT: (1) US winner will receive the DVD “The Smurfs and the Magic Flute”

Looking for another easy way to be GREEN? Re-Play Recycled Products have got you covered!
Re-Play recycled HDPE products are manufactured, assembled, packaged and tested in the USA! In fact, they are primarily a south-eastern USA operation – all the better for reducing their carbon footprint.
Re-Play REALLY is made from Recycled Milk Bottles!
After your community recycler hauls away your empty milk jugs and other recycling items, they are flattened and sorted. Their supplier carefully sorts and selects the appropriate containers, grinds them up into flakes, which are thoroughly cleaned, dried and color sorted. Then the little flakes are melted and made into pellets for shipping to their molder. He mixes the recycled pellets with a batch of colorant pellets, and then magically molds each Re-Play item. Voila!
Spill Proof Cups - Made from recycled milk jugs! These colorful spill proof cups are perfect for kids on the go. The one piece, easy clean silicone valve keeps your child's travels leak-free! Not only are they better for your child, they are better for your environment! •FDA-approved recycled plastic •Dishwasher safe •Easy Clean Silicone Valve •Durable and lightweight •Tested for safety •BPA-Free •Made in the USA
Utensils -
