In Honor Of The Ta Ta's Giveaway Hop! #Rafflecopter Giveaway

In honor of this pink month, I have gone as pink as I can!  I have a prize package from Simply Eden and Bombay Fashions!

    Bombay Fashions is the premier online one-stop destination for affordable fashion jewelry and accessories!  They recently introduced the Bella Collection, a large selection of statement earrings, bangles and necklaces!  Although prices vary, the average price of the pieces is $20!  Very reasonable, if I do say so myself!  Their earrings in the Bella Collection average only $5.00, but they are so cute and there is such a big selection. With the way I lose earrings,  this would be a smart idea.  I could buy a few pairs and not be out too much if I were to break up a pair here and there. 



    One celebrity who really likes Bombay Fashions is Oprah Winfrey!  She wears the orange gold bracelet ($13.39) for her current publicity shot for her OWN Network.  She has also worn many of Bombay Fashions for her "O" Magazine cover shots!  
    Right now, to celebrate the festive season of Diwali, which is now here, Bombay Fashions is automatically taking off an additional 25% from all merchandise, which will be automatically deducted at check-out!

Jeremy Robinson's Great #Kindle #Giveaway Blog Tour!


     I am a lucky participant of the Jeremy Robinson month-long blog tour.  He will be visiting 28 blogs during the month of October, one for every week-day.  I'm #28 and therefore, he will be visiting me on October 28th.  He will answer 3 questions I posed to him about writing.  He writes for several genres, including Horror, Young Adult Literature Science Thriller (Chess Team Universe or Chesspocalypse), and Humor.  
    At the end of this month, he will be giving out two kindles purchased at Amazon.com!  One will be given out to a random newsletter subscriber and another one will be given out if one of his books reaches the Amazon best-seller list (top 100)!  Check out THE SENTINEL!
    To enter, go to his blog, check out his books, sign up for his newsletter and tell him that #28 sent you!  (That's me!)  'Cause if I send the most subscriber's, I'll get an Amazon gift card!  Woo hoo!!! 
    Also, stop by on the 28th to see what questions I asked him and what his answers to me will be!  I've always been curious about the book-writing process so my questions will have something to do with that.  Jeremy ought to have some knowledge on the subject since he has authored 11 books so far and is working on at least a dozen more!  (OK, I don't know if it's a dozen.  I do know that he's working on at least several.)
    Winners will be announced on Twitter, Facebook, his blog, my blog and his newsletter (which you will hopefully be signed up to!)

Murad Skin Review and Giveaway!

When looking for a good skincare product, I look for a few things--one of them is company reputation, another is track record and yet another is cutting edge technology that is effective.  Murad seems to have all of those things.  That's why I thought I'd give it a shot. 

Complete Skin Renewal Set
Renewing Eye Cream











I was able to try the Renewing Eye Cream and the Complete Skin Renewal Set.  That is a total of 5 products and I will tell you which two were my absolute favorites.  
Renewing Eye Cream:  This cream is very dense and has substance.  A little bit goes a long way.  I really love it and it is one of the two products that I very highly recommend.  It is the best eye cream I have ever used.  It seems a bit pricey at $73, but it ships for free and a little goes a long way, so it will last a long while.  I noticed a difference in the elasticity around my eyes and the dark circles were diminished.  

The Complete Skin Renewal Set ($42) consists of Refreshing Cleanser, Perfecting Day Cream SPF 30, Hydro Dynamic Ultimate Moisture and Complete Reform.  All of the products were excellent (!!!), but the one that stood out above the rest for me was the Complete Reform.  Again, I noticed the firmness of my skin, namely the jaw area and the neck area, take on a measured improvement and I was quite impressed!  When I put it on, there is just the slightest tingle.  Complete Reform is a "patented treatment shown to increase the firmness of the skin by 61% after just one application while also improving skin texture to reveal softer, smoother skin."  Buy this product in it's full size for $67 with free shipping and enter the code COMPLETE for an additional free gift from Murad.

Murad has a great beauty blog called 'Skin Deep' that is well-updated and quite informative! Today's article is about 3 must-have ingredients in an anti-aging product.  Check it out!

Without further ado, Murad would like to give someone the same products I received for their own use and enjoyment, a $115 value.  To enter, please complete the mandatory entry of  being my GFC Follower and also visit Murad and find a product you'd like to try different from the ones I mentioned. Leave your product find in the comment section along with your GFC Name.  Then proceed through the rest of the Rafflecopter Entry form for more entries if you'd like to increase your chances of winning!
