Disney’s Christopher Robin Film & SunRype Family Sweepstakes

How many of y’all got really emotional when y’all saw the preview for Disney’s Christopher Robin In Theaters August 3? Meeeee…. For us millennials this was a huge part of our early childhood.. And now we get to share it with our own children.

If you haven’t seen the trailer it shows the soft hearted Christopher Robin we remember from our childhood but with adult dilemmas and during his most trying time is reunited with his old stuffed animals buddies. They quickly realize Christopher Robin needs their help to rediscover the joys of time with loved ones. If that doesn’t tear you up I don’t know WHAT will..  I won’t be missing out on this one, my kids are already eager to go see it. And they don’t even know the years of love behind it.. 

This will teach our kiddos the same lessons it taught us as little ones – Cherish those we hold so dearly to our hearts.

Now, I’m sure y’all have heard me mention them before but my favorite to-go snack company, SunRype, has partnered with Disney again! They are holding a Disney’s Christopher Robin Prize Pack sweepstakes where 6 winners will be chosen EVERY week! Entrants will have a chance to win prizes like a Petunia Pickle Bottom Winnie the Pooh and Friends backpack, 4 Fandango movie admission codes to see Disney’s Christopher Robin, a digital code to download the film’s soundtrack, a picnic blanket, a honey pot mug, a feature film poster and of course, a variety of SunRype snacks!

How amazing is that?! Enter here for your chance to win!

Virginic – Purity Perfected

It’s not very often I post on beauty products but I’ve fallen in LOVE with Virginic. They’re a company that is extremely proud of the natural purity their products contain.

They’ve got 100% pure essential oils, deodorants, hair care, oral care, face and eye serums and MORE. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I strongly believe that it is equally as important to be cautious of what you put on your body as it is for what you put in it.

Our bodies absorb through the skin – So if you’re putting harsh chemicals on your face, hair and in our mouths don’t you think that would be negatively impacting your body?

This is why I’ve been so obsessed with their products lately. I’ve been using their essential oils for diffusing, their Jojoba/Argan Oils for my hair, their face and eye serum for my under eye bags (I hate them so much!) and their charcoal toothpaste to maintain my white teeth! All while feeling good about the fact that it’s all 100% pure and natural!

I also love their staff – They’re all so friendly and passionate!

So if you’re looking for a great new natural skincare company I highly recommend them to everyone!! Use my code KARALIZ3 on their site for $3 off any Virginc product! 😊

Wanted to tell y’all about the amazing jewelry I received from Mamas Jewelry! I got some pieces for myself and my Mother and SO happy I did. She loved the pieces and thought they were WAY more expensive than they were!

Whitening Sensitive Teeth at Home

Disclosure: Some of the links below are affiliate links, meaning at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.

Anyone else drink an exorbitant amount of tea and coffee?! Well, I’m a Mom so yeah I sure do. As much as I absolutely love it, it has caused my teeth to lose it’s pearly luster which has definitely hit my self-esteem a little.

So after using the same whitening toothpaste for the past 2 years with minimal results I decided I needed to look elsewhere for a solution! I’m sure you’ve seen all of the celebrities on Instagram with their whitening LED posts – They look promising but the at-home light is not the same frequency as the dentists’ so it definitely doesn’t whiten nearly as effectively so decided that was out of the question.

Same research, the strips seemed great but they create issues with not staying put long enough to have lasting effects as well as causing extreme sensitivity in some cases. (Which all whitening products do because of the gel but it sure wouldn’t be enjoyable for with those with super sensitive teeth like myself!) And the widely popular charcoal is just too abrasive for teeth – It can erode enamel regardless of how fine it is.

With all of these options I decided there was only one I really wanted to give a shot – Whitening Tray Kits. They are custom fitted to your teeth for a complete whitening coverage, are safe for gums and enamel and are the same methods dentists use. But there are companies out there that use the same dentist methods without the huge bill!

That’s how I found Smile Brilliant – It’s been a complete game changer!! I bought their T6 Sensitive System for average stains for only $175. It comes with one custom set of custom trays, 18 whitening applications and 18 desensitizing applications..

You begin with creating your custom trays with the paste they provide and it only takes 15 minutes! You then send in your molds and they create a perfect fitting tray and you can begin your whitening journey!

My teeth were sensitive the first few days but the desensitizing gel nipped that in the bud real quick! And my gums never felt sensitive! I am so happy I decided to go with Smile Brilliant the first time instead of trying other methods I was already second guessing..

My confidence is back and my Husband has told me constantly how white and beautiful my teeth look! A HUGE self-esteem boost! Now I drink my tea/coffee through a straw and I don’t care how silly I look – I’ve got to keep these pearlies white! 

Another random perk of this system is now that I’ve got these custom trays I use them at night for my constant nighttime teeth grinding and don’t have to spend the extra money on another set of trays!

Lucky for y’all, I am collaborating with Smile Brilliant to give one lucky reader of mine a $149 Smile Brilliant Credit towards which ever Whitening System they choose so they too can experience the joy that comes from being able to #SmileFearlessly ! Giveaway ends May 19th – So get those entries in and be sure to enter your email address! Enter HERE!

Open to USA, UK, Australia and Canadian Residents.

Their kits range from $139 to $189 depending on the type of system you’ll require and with my code: SIMPLYKARALIZ20 you can take off an additional 20% ! This is an amazing value when considering the price you’d be charged at a dental office!

Again, I am SO happy I chose Smile Brilliant as it’s completely changed my dental habits and my confidence – Try it for yourself, I guarantee you won’t be disappointed!

Dr. Jacobs Naturals

As y’all know I love all things natural and eco-friendly. And Dr. Jacobs Naturals is JUST that. They’ve got some amazing castile multi-purpose soaps that I’ve been using for my face and shower soap and it’s been incredible!

They’re made with naturally derived scents and oils which leaves a lingering and long lasting smell after use. I’ve completely replaced my normal soaps for them as this weather is causing me extreme dry skin and it’s helped a TON!

I do believe it’s just as important what you put on your body as it is what you put into it because it’s still being absorbed and certain chemicals can be detrimental to your health in the long run!

That’s why I love finding these new products to help steer my family’s lifestyle into a more natural and holistic direction! Try Dr. Jacobs Naturals for yourself, you won’t be disappointed – And the prices are totally fair 😉 They’re also currently running free shipping on all orders over $20. Use code FREESHIP20 at Checkout!

Good Buy Gear

Ever have such an amazing experience with a company that you want to tell the world about them? That’s what this post is about. For parents living in Colorado, you’ve GOT TO TRY Good Buy Gear! They’ve got some AMAZING products with a unique twist. They’re an online infant/toddlers/children’s consignment shop that picks up the items and delivers!!

I had things PILLING up in my garage from the kid’s past bedroom decor, to toys, books and more. I wasn’t having luck on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace and honestly felt uncomfortable meeting people whenever doing a sell without my Husband home – So decided to try something new. I had heard of Good Buy Gear from another Mom and decided to check it out.

They’ve got some AMAZING products at such incredible prices!! I was able to get quite a few gifts for the kids for Christmas but most importantly.. I was able to make some room in our garage! I scheduled a pick-up appointment time to come grab my items and they made it SO easy for me! They did the research for descriptions, they clean up the items if needed AND find a great price to sell it at that people would find appealing (They run the prices/posts by you first before posting them!)

Their Huge Warehouse in Arvada!

This is exactly what adapting to the future looks like! Making a consignment store online with the convenience of delivery/pick up is SO perfect for people who would be using this website – Parents with Busy Schedules!

Try it out!! There’s SO many amazing gifts for your kids AND a $10 gift code (TRYGOODBUY)

I just spent $42 on some amazing gifts!!! 😀 Can’t wait! ❥

Groupon Coupons

If you’ve been following my shopping posts long I do NOT like to pay full price. I worked in the retail world long enough to know there are almost ALWAYS coupons somewhere! So anytime I’m shopping I always check for coupons and almost always find one! Who doesn’t love a good deal?! (Leaves you feeling way less guilty about spending 😉 )

My favorite coupon site is Groupon – That’s where I love to find my favorite local deals so figured they’d also have the best coupons and they always do! I’m currently most excited about their Finish Line coupons as I used to work there as a store manager (And that’s where I met my Husband 😉 ) and still loveee their products! Especially with Back To School coming up, have got to get these quickly growing kids new kicks!

Groupon has both in-store and online coupons when available such as their current online promo code for Finish Line for an extra 25% off AND flat-rate shipping – That’s a killer deal for some sweet new shoes! (They also display the current sales going on – So convenient)

I’m probably a little biased when it comes to Finish Line but I use their deals myself and love the ease the Groupon coupon’s page provides! I highly recommend checking it out next time you make ANY purchase – Online or in-store!
