Show and Tell

Got two fun packages in the mail recently.

First, my sis-in-law Becca sent me SOAPS OF AWESOMENESS.

Actually, they’re from Hydromissions, a company working to provide clean water in developing countries. Proceeds from the soaps fund their mission.

Not only is the soap funding a great cause — it’s also great quality, made from fair trade shea butter, goat’s milk, honey, and other natural ingredients.

Thanks, Becca, for my super-cool random gift!

Second, I received my BzzKit for Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion with SPF. (As a Bzz Agent, I get free samples of certain products so I can try them and tell people about them. I have to be honest about the products, though, even if it means trashing them.)

I was so excited when I signed up for this campaign. I love Aveeno products, but I hardly ever buy them …. I have a hard time splurging on myself (despite the fact that most of their products are under $10).

Extra points to Aveeno for including a full-size bottle of the moisturizing lotion in the BzzKit. That made me feel pretty special, although I know I’m just one of hundreds of BzzAgents.

But look, there’s more! Aveeno also sent me trial sizes of their moisturizing lotion with SPF, so if you want one, let me know. Two catches — you have to be somebody I know in the Nashville area (no shipping this time, I’ll give it to you when I see ya) — and you have to tell me what you think about the product.

I love mailbox treasures. Especially unexpected ones. They really brighten my day.
