Biore Pore Stripes and Warming Cleanser

I recently won a Biore Prize Pack from one of my favorite blogs, Justina's Gems (also check out her blog's facebook). She does a lot of great giveaways, frequently in collaboration with my friend Jessica's blog InTruBeauty (and check out her facebook too). I have to say, this prize came in the mail at the perfect time. I gave birth almost three months ago and my hormones have been all over the place for basically the last year of my life. My skin looks worse now than it ever did as a teenager. Adult acne is not something I ever expected to be dealing with! The Biore products I won, the Warming Anti-Blackhead Cleanser and the Deep Cleansing Pore Strips do a wonderful one-two punch to improve my skin. I love the warming cleanser, it feels warm and tingly when you first apply it and it was great little exfoliating beads to truly deep clean your skin. Using the cleanser was a great way to prep my face for the pore strips. I used to love using the pore strips back in high school and college when I had blackhead issues, but I haven't used them in recent years because I didn't need them.. until now! They work just as great as I remembered, and my skin feels soft and clean using both products, and my skin feels like it can actually breathe now instead of being clogged with oil and dirt. I love these products and I'm thrilled I won! If you want to win great prizes like these, please check out the blogs I mentioned above. They both do frequent giveaways with amazing prizes and you could be the next winner!

(Don't mind my chipped nail polish - it's hard to find the time to give myself a manicure!)

This is the beginning..

Hello and welcome! I am completely new to the blogging world so bear with me until I get the hang of this. My intentions is for this blog to be a place for me to discuss and review the free stuff I find, whether it be samples from around the internet, or products I receive from Bzz Agent, and so on. I might use this for other purposes as I think of new things I want to share with my readers. I also spend a considerable amount of time earning points on sites like Swagbucks and MyPoints so I might use this space to update my progress and give some tips on how to make some legitimate extra spending money from these and other similar programs.
