I contacted Brea  creator of My Lip Stuff after reading a review of her all natural  cruelty free  lip products, and just had to try it out for my self, after experiencing  dry cracked lips due to the harsh weather of the Midwest, My daughters also  who are “addicted” to  constantly putting on lip glosses, balms, chap sticks, as a mother I was concerned about all the “Chemicals” that  they were putting on their lips, Well alas  My lip stuff is all natural, chemical and cruelty free. You can see for your self how MY LIP STUFF came about and Brea’s Journey to create this amazing Lip Stuff HERE.

MY REVIEW.

I was truly amazed how My Lip Stuff glided on and not goopy and gloppy like most other lip products that I have tried, My lips feel smoother , My Lip Stuff glides on and comes in amazing flavors,  My girls loved all the flavors that we tried so much we don’t have a particular flavor that we prefer  over the others.

And with the ingredients being all natural, and animal cruelty free  is a plus in my book.My Lip Stuff is MidwestMom and Kidlet approved

Winter Wonderland~ NOT

   Posted by: MidwestMom   in Blogging

I was hoping for some snow but never realized that we would get this much, Friday morning while taking the kidlets to school it started with flurries then by midday more came  so much that school was let out early that day, Then from Friday late after noon till about Saturday night it kept coming like some one is shaking a snow globe of the Earth over and over, Uggh  I’ve had a enough of this white stuff not to mention   having to dig out of this stuff. And the possibility of  sliding like a shuffle board puck :-) . People were not driving with the most caution and brains  I was in fear of my car parked on the side street. Thankfully  I did not hear of any accidents in my area , Saddened that a woman lost her life in TN due to a tree falling on her house.

My car caught in the “Storm”

Crappy Customer Service

   Posted by: MidwestMom   in Blogging, Children, Family, Writing

I have experienced crappy customer service before but this one takes the cake. Earlier today I took the Midwestmom Kidlets  for a haircut  to the same place that we have frequented for the past  three  years. My oldest daughter went first and  just as the lady was just about done , The owner  asked who was next  which was my youngest daughter, This is when all hell broke loose . The Witch I mean the owner blurted out  to my daughter and my self and in front of ten other people waiting to receive service “ I’m not cutting her hair  it takes too long and you are just too lazy to take care of her hair and then come her expecting us to comb and cut it” Okay for 1. My youngest daughter has thick curly hair ( think Shirley Temple) and 2. We Comb her hair on a daily basis and 3. Who the hell does she think she is calling me lazy if any one is lazy it is her and 4. There are no signs stating they have the right to refuse service . Now I could see the Witch owner refusing service if  my daughter had lice or some sort of skin condition but she does not fall under any of those circumstances. So we went to another Salon and they were more than happy to accommodate us . Also  I wrote a letter of complaint to the State Cosmetology Board

The Gift of Giving

   Posted by: MidwestMom   in Blogging, Cape Girardeau Missouri, Children, Events, Family, Family Life

I have taught my Children that it is always better to give than receive ,   When my oldest was five and in Kindergarten now eleven  and in Middle School, She took upon her self with no encouragement from me or her father  that she wanted to do something special at   Christmas time for  the firemen/firewomen that just visited her school, She took her earnings from  her good   grades and we went to the store to purchase stuff to make cookies with, Moved by her generosity  I included other items  to help fill a small wicker basket. We made the cookies and then filled up the basket  with the other goodies and went to the Fire station near our home in Florida   She went up to the door grinning from ear to ear as she presented her gift to them, Now  6 years later  that tradition still continues,  My youngest daughter “Cheezin” with Missouri’s’ finest:-)Christmas with firemen 002

Where she thinks of this stuff who knows :-)
