Are you looking to protect your skin during the winter season? As majority of you already know that Winter has some of the harshest weather of all seasons. I know during the winter season I have a hard time protecting my skin. 

I came across a wonderful product that will help protect your skin during the winter season. Brush on Block is a Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Sunscreen. I know what your thinking is why I need this product during the winter season? Whether you are walking your dog, driving to work or skiing you need to protect your skin. 

A fact that you may not be aware of is that snow and ice reflect UV rays and in the winter there is a thinner ozone layer, which means there are more harmful rays hitting the earths surface and your skin. With this new product Brush on Block provides Broad Spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen to help protect your skin. 

What I love this product is it not messy and it is easy to put in your purse and your ready to go. I love products that are mineral based. I was happy that I found a product that can be sunscreen based. I love how this product is easy to apply and no mess. I also like the fact when you apply it, it feel natural. This is definitely a must have product for the holidays. 


Protect your skin and let Brush on Block be your must-have beauty essential this Winter Season.

This year Star Wars is very popular once again for this holiday season. One of my favorite places that I like to shop at is Hammacher Schlemmer. They have about everything you can imagine on their website. 
I was excited when I was able to review one of their toys from their website. I was able to review their Voice Activated R2-D2 robot from Star Wars. My 6 year old son was very excited when he was able to review this product. He has been over obsessed with Star Wars the past year and wants everything Star Wars for Christmas this year. The Voice Activated R2-D2 is a motorized replica of the headstrong little droid from Star Wars films. This robot will respond to voice commands, navigates rooms and hallways. My son was amazed on how this robot can do that. He was excited to see the robot follow him and roam the hallways. What is really neat about this robot is that R2 obeys more than 40 voice commands. For example you can command him to turn around and move forward. My son loves playing games with R2 and playing tag with him. R2 has a infrared sensor where he can go in a room and sear for people. My son loves going around the house and having R2 follow him which is a neat site to watch. I know you are probably wondering how this can happen but with the infrared sensor lets him do that.
This is an amazing toy for children and would make a great holiday present. Make sure you stop by Hammacher Schlemmer and pick up your holiday gifts. They offer a variety of different products.

Are you still looking for the stocking stuffer gift. Well The Amazing Zhus would make a great stocking stuffer for the holidays. I know my children love interactive toys. The Amazing Zhus are mesmerizing mice characters that allow children to astound their friends with fantastical feats of magical and thrilling stunts. 

When my daughter started playing with her new mouse she has a lot of fun figuring out how her new pet worked. We received Dynamo for review. She was very excited because one of her favorite colors is blue. Dynamo is a master of distraction and can seemingly disappear in a flash. He's is also known for his signature lighting bold in his eyes and swirly pattern on his back. 

What is really need that Dynamo can read and respond to the Magic Cards or predict the pea's location in the shell game trick. Which is fun to watch. My daughter has a great time watching them perform tricks and stunts. 

When you find your new Zhus pet you can get one of two kinds. They come in magicians and stunt pets. Magicians come with three magic cards and a magic wand. They will be able to per for the magic tricks as well as performing stunt. There are also stunt pets which Dynamo falls into that category. 

So make sure you pick up one of your Zhus pets for your child stocking. You will not be disappointed. Make sure you connect with them on their media sites below.
