MARCH FAVORITES


Pink iPod Nano- 5th generation 8GB

So, I got this iPod (my first, I know I’m about 10 years late on the iPod train) with the help of my husband a couple of weeks ago and I gotta say I LOVE it!! I never felt as though I really needed an iPod before for the simple reason I would rather read than listen to music. However, this iPod doesn’t just play music. It also takes picture, video, and has a pedometer. So far I have used all of these features and they are all great! This iPod has an internal flash memory which stores up to 2,000 songs, up to 8 hours of video or up to 7,000 digital photos, because of this I felt there was no need to get the 16GB model. This new model also has a new FM radio tuner and a built-in mic which lets you capture a thought, a reminder, a class lecture, or any audio recording you want with Voice Memos. All in all this is a great little gadget, I bought mine at Best Buy for $133.99.


Clarisonic Mia-Skin Cleansing System-Pink

Due to all of the wonderful reviews I decided to give this a try this. To be honest I would pay anything for clearer, healthier skin. Here is the blurb from Sephora about what it claims to do.

Here are some of the benefits this revolutionary skincare tool delivers:
- Removes makeup six times better than traditional methods.
- Clears pores and reduces the appearance of pore size.
- Cleanses so thoroughly that skincare products absorb better.
- Creates noticeably healthier looking skin.

When I purchased this at Sephora the associate there told me to give it at least three weeks for my face to “purge” all the impurities it’s been storing away. My face doesn’t have too many break outs regularly, my skin just always appears congested. After just 10 days I notice a difference in my skin. I wouldn’t say it is a huge difference, but my skin is smoother and my pores do seem smaller and the amount of blackheads and white heads seem to be less and less every time I look in the mirror. At $150 I am not sure it is worth the investment yet. I am going to give it another week to see if my face continues to purge and become clearer.

24
Okay, I have loved Keifer Sutherland since The Lost Boys, but his very popular show 24 just never appealed to me, until now! We can now stream the first 7 seasons through Netflix (another love of mine) it so is much easier to watch shows like this. Well my husband and I gave it a try and we LOVE it- we have watched the first season in one week- if you haven’t watched it you need to give it a try!!

Seche Vite

Another product I decided to give a try based on all the great reviews I read about. I bought mine at Target for $9.95, kinda pricey for a top coat but I figured I would give it a try. This is truly one of the best top coats I have ever used, better than any Sally Hansen or OPI product I have used before. Within just 2 minutes my nails are bone dry, I can do anything without worrying about my wrecking my nails. On top of being quick dry this top coat also protects my nail polish from chipping for about a week.
