Review - Polaroid Image Sunglasses #Travel-Friendly

I find it amazing that I didn't look into sunglasses for our upcoming trip. This makes no sense because we're heading to a country that virtually has no Winter or Fall season, it is Summer all year round. Makes sense, it is located in the tropics. Polaroid was kind enough to provide me with a pair of sunglasses from their Best Under The Sun Collection to review. I chose the Polaroid Image Sunglasses in Matte Black. These sunglasses retail for $110 and are of very good quality. The Polaroid Image Sunglasses are styled after the 80s aviator sunglasses. Aviators were extremely popular in the 80s, and not just in the U.S. There are pictures of my dad in Nicaragua rocking Aviators in many pictures, it was a huge style all around the world. Polaroid Image Sunglasses:

• Polaroid polarized lenses for glare-free vision
• 100% UV400 protection - protects eyes from UVA, UVB and UVC rays
• Comes wtih Best Under the Sun case and microfiber cloth

The sunglasses are very sturdy and well packaged in their Best Under The Sun case for maximum protection. I tried these sunglasses out for about a week but just couldn't get used to them. I adore them but they are far too big for my face. They take up about half my face, no joke. My dad has been wearing them lately and took a huge liking to them. We both love the style, but it ultimately looks 100x better on him. It works out great, as he often has long 1+ hour drives and the sun hits him right in the face, but the sunglasses help out with that problem thanks to Polaroid's polarizaion lens technology.

Polaroid's Best Under The Sun collection has many different styles of sunglasses sure to fit everyone's style. Another paid I adore is the beautiful cat-eye frames from the mid 50s, rightfully names Marilyn. A huge thanks to Polaroid for the opportunity to review their great sunglasses, they will be put to great use under sun on our trip! :)

Giveaway - Freschetta Pizza "Proud To Support Pink"

I recently got the chance to pick up a Freschetta Pizza, we got the Canadian Ham and Pineapple variety. I can't say I'm too crazy about it, did love how fresh it looked right out of their great packaging. Smelled deliciously fresh, popped it in the oven and everyone got a slice. I like my pizza chewy with some crunch, and this Freschetta pizza was just not it for me. It was a little too chewy for my taste, but the sauce, Canadian bacon and Pineapple toppings were finger-licking good. It definatelt didn't taste like frozen pizza.

Freschetta is making a difference in October with their Proud To Support Pink program. The Freschetta Proud to Support Pink program aims to donate $50,000 to the Memorial Sloan-Jettering Cancer Center. From 9/25 to 10/31 Freschetta will donate $1 for every purchase of their specially marked packages of Freschetta Pizzas and Artisan Pizza Crusts. Just visit ProudToSupportPink.com and enter the code found in the specially marked packages.

Freschetta is also holding a sweepstakes where they will giving away 50 Pink iPod Shuffle Players each week! They also will be donating 50 Pink iPod Players to four cancer centers for patients to use during treatments. A great program for a great cause. I personally don't know anyone who has been struck with his horrible disease, but have read stories from many survivors online. There is hope, lets help Freschetta reach their $50,000 donation goal! Here is your chance to win a coupon for a FREE Freschetta Pizza of your choice and + goodies.

What Type Of Face Wash Do You Use?

Ladies, we're taught to wash our face before we go to sleep to remove all the dirt, make up on it. This is good advice, but no one ever told me what to wash it with. When I was younger I used soap, and that is, by far, the worst thing to wash your face with. It dries it up and my skin felt extremely tight when dry. Horrible. Up until a couple years ago, at around 18, that I started experimenting with different types of face wash.

I tried face wash in many different varieties; foam, cream, scrub, etc. I use to buy tubes in the travel products aisle at my store and test them out for a couple of days. The foam-type face wash was useless. In my opinion, they feel so light that you don't feel like you're getting a cleaning at all. Cream face wash felt heavy while washing my face. I do not like it, but the ones with exfoliating beads are a bit better. Scrubs are my type of face wash. I love exfoliating scrubs because you can feel the gritty texture and you know its scrubbing off the dirt, make-up and dead skin cells.

My face is acne-free, with the exception of some blemishes and random small breakouts. My sin is combination dry/oily so it was difficult finding one that worked well. I now use Aveeno's Skin Brightening Daily Scrub and it does wonders. I follow it up with some Sin lightning face lotion at night and my skin looks wonderful. This and plenty of water works wonders. Anyone go through what I did to find a face wash that worked for you?
