Picked up some LA Colors e/s, N.Y.C. New York Color Eye 2 Eye e/s, almay e/s and some other items. To be able to go into a store and pick up makeup that's affordable and good quality. I may not be able to purchase the high end makeup but yet I can still look fab with the non high end makeup. You shouldn't have to spend a fortune to look fab. When the pockets are telling you that you're on a budget lol! It is what it is, cause I feel every woman can look good without the high price tag, which your paying for the name; now on the other hand some products just work and gives us the preformance that we seek out of our favorite product.</span></div><div align="left">This is how my mini haul from dollar tree came about. I wanted to checkout some makeup and I found a treasure trove of name brand makeup at the dollar tree, for instance loreal, revlon, sally henson, bonnel bell, nyc, maybelline.

That it's great in all ways. The taste is amazing and it's very refreshing and minty. I found this water last weekend when I was shopping at Krogers, I saw the chocolatemint and I had to get it along with the peppermint. This water blew my mind and tastes buds, cause it was very pure and real mint flavor as well as chocolate essence to give it it's chocolate taste. <br />
<br />
They start with the best mint in the world. Real mint. Fresh, flavorful, pesticide-free mint grown in Washington State's Yakima Valley. They treat the mint using a double-distillation process that steams the leaves until they reach the true essence of the mint. The company test for taste, and then test again for purity. How cool is that. next, the water is purified using reverse-osmosis, whatever that is, a process that saves all the good stuff and filters out the bad, including salts, impurities, and particles as small as an ion. What's left is a blank canvas, so that the taste of mint is showcased.<br />
<br />
What are the benefits to drinking MetroMint water.... let me tell you.<br />
<br />
1. Refresh : Stimulates the nerves, instantly opening your senses to send a fresh, cool feeling throughout your body.<br />
<br />
2.Relieves: settles your stomach. Consume mint before a meal and increase the flow of digestive jucies. After dinner, mint soothes the lining of the digestive tract.<br />
<br />
3.Relax: Helps fight stress. So drink up<br />
<br />
4.Revere: According to Eastern philosophy, scattering mint around the home is a time- honored way to bring peace in the home.<br />
<br />
5.Renew: Metromint acts as an instant breath fresher. Mint kills bacteria in your mouth and keeps it moist & kissable. Heighten your senses.<br />
<br />
6. Rehydrate: We all know that our body needs water. Metromint<br />
replenishes your essential fluids and restores your aching muscles.<br />

<br />
<br />
A natural eye look for the day doesn’t mean you’re limited to only neutral shades. Try lightly applying a colorful accent shade that you can deepen for evening.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
For a daytime look, apply a thin line of eyeliner along the top lashes and use your highlight and accent colors to softly line the bottom lashline.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Transform this look for night by applying a slightly thicker liner of eyeliner along top lashes or using a darker shade over the existing line. Line the lower lashes with eyeliner as well and softly smudge if desired.<br />
<br />

<br />
Apply another coat of mascara for more dramatic evening lashes. Change your lip liner, lipstick & gloss to bolder shades with shimmer and high shine. While the general rule is to play up either eyes or lips, an evening event is perfect for going glam. So don’t be afraid to pump up the color to make eyes and lips more dramatic.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Illuminate a tired look with a touch-up from the Mary Kay Facial Highlighting Pen under eyes & along the smile lines.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Freshen up your face and help control shine with a little press powder. Or dust face, neck & de`collete with bronze highlighting powder. Give cheeks a touch more color- and let the evening begin!<br />

<br />
<br />
OMG! This is one of the best beauty books that I have ever owned and the fact that you get so much for a great price. I heard so much about these beauty books and seeing all the girls on YouTube creating beautiful looks with them it was a matter of time before I would get me one, went online to order them and there it was <span style="color: blue;"><strong><u>OUT OF STOCK</u>!</strong></span><br />
<br />
<br />
I would get so mad cause I really wanted them but couldn't order them, then I heard that elf is now at Target, I almost lost my mind, I headed to my nearest Target and there they had a very small display for e.l.f., I was like what the hell is this, they didn't have a large selection to choose from, but what I did find is what I been longing for, my beauty books. They only had two books there and they were they Eyes Bright Edition & The Smokey Eye Edition. You know i was beside myself with glee for having these two books in my possession. Got home and checked the books out and fell in love with them off the back. The Eye Brights Edition has 12 of the most beautiful colors in the palette, it comes with an eyeliner in black and a eyeshadow applicator, along with some instructions on applying the shadows, great for first timers whose new to makeup and is a good guide to achieve a fun luck. I did some swatches of the colors for the smokey eye edition and the colors are very rich and pigmented, so that's a plus in my book. There are some matte & shimmer shadows in this fun palette. Here's the inside of the smokey eye edition along with swatches of the colors of this excellent, beautiful palette all 12 colors.<br />

This is a fun an bright eyeshadows that;s great for spring/summer. Colors are just prefect for that flirty and romantic, girlie looks and you can create a vast range of looks that this palette has to offer. To me elf cosmetics has some of the best cosmetics for great prices that we all can afford even on a budget. They are soft, shimmery & matte finishes. Take a look at the swatches from this beautiful palette, and see why so many women love these books.<br />

As far as I'm concern this is just one of the best beauty books out there and the fact that you can purchase these little darlings at a Target store near you, for a small price of $5 and that's a steal in my book. For a small price your getting alot and it's worth the price, cause the payoff is great. When your using these shadows you need to use a base for the color to hold and give you that POP. The shadows are powdery and there's fallout from some of the colors, but that's an over sight that can be over looked lol! In a short period I have become an elf lover and I can't think why it has taken me so long to get on the band wagon, this is just one hell of a company to supply our beauty needs for a reasonable price that's gentle on the check book. I highly recommend this elf beauty book.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The history of cosmetics spans at least 6000 years of human history, and almost every society on earth.</div><br />
The first archaeological evidence of cosmetics usage is found in Ancient Egypt around 4000 BC. The Ancient Greeks and Romans also used cosmetics.<br />
The Romans and Ancient Egyptians, not realizing their dangerous properties, used cosmetics containing mercury and white lead.<br />
Fragrances, particularly frankincense and myrrh are mentioned in the Christian Bible: Exodus 30: 34, Gospel of Matthew 2:11. Ancient Egyptians had a wide extent of make-up utensils. One of them is kohl, which was used to outline the eyes. It is made up of lead, copper, burned almonds, soot, and other ingredients. It was believed that eye make-up could ward off evil spirits and improve the sight. <br />
Even the poor wore eye make-up in ancient Egypt. The production of cosmetics during ancient Rome was usually done by female slaves called Cosmetae.<br />

The cosmetic uses of kohl and henna have their roots in north Africa. Cosmetics were used in Persia and what is today the Middle East from ancient periods. After Arab tribes converted to Islam and conquered those areas, in some areas cosmetics were only restricted if they were to disguise the real look in order to mislead or cause uncontrolled desire. In Islamic Law, there is no prohibition on wearing cosmetics, but there are requirements as stated above. And that the cosmetics must not be made of harmfull substances as to harm ones body.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
An early teacher was Abu al-Qssum al-Zahrawi, or Abulcasis, who wrote the 24-volume medical encyclopedia Al-Tasrif.. A chapter of the 19th volume was dedicated to cosmetics. As the treatise was translated into Latin, the cosmetic chapter was used in the West. Al-Zahrawi considered cosmetics a branch of medicine, which he called "Medicine of Beauty" (Adwiyat al-Zinah). He deals with perfumes, scented aromatics and incense. There were perfumed stocks rolled and pressed in special moulds, perhaps the earliest antecedents of present day lipsticks and solid deodorants. He also used oily substances called Adhan for medication and beautification<br />

Chinese people began to stain their fingernails with gum arabic, gelatin, beeswax and egg from around 3000 BCE.] The colors used represented social class: Chou dynasty royals wore gold and silver; later royals wore black or red. The lower classes were forbidden to wear bright colors on their nails.<br />

In Japan, geisha wore lipstick made of crushed safflower petals to paint the eyebrows and edges of the eyes as well as the lips, and sticks of bintsuke wax, a softer version of the sumo wrestlers' hair wax, were used by geisha as a makeup base. Rice powder colors the face and back; rouge contours the eye socket and defines the nose. Ohaguro (black paint) colours the teeth for the ceremony, called Erikae, when maiko (apprentice geisha) graduate and become independent. The geisha would also sometimes use bird droppings to compile a lighter color. <br />

</div>In the Middle Ages it was thought sinful and immoral to wear makeup by Church leaders, but many women still adopted the fad . From the Renaissance up until the 20th Century the lower classes had to work outside, in agricultural jobs and the typically light-colored European's skin was darkened by exposure to the sun. The higher a person was in status, the more leisure time he or she had to spend indoors, which kept their skin pale. Thus, the highest class of European society were pale resulting in European men and mostly women attempting to lighten their skin directly, or using white powder on their skin to look more aristocratic. A variety of products were used, including white lead paint which also may have contained arsenic, which also poisoned women and killed many. Queen Elizabeth I of England was one well-known user of white lead, with which she created a look known as "the Mask of Youth". Portraits of the queen by Nicholas Hilliard from later in her reign are illustrative of her influential style.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">During the early years of the 20th century, make-up became fashionable in the United States of America and Europe owing to the influence of ballet and theatre stars such as Mathilde Kschessinska and Sarah Bernhardt. But the most influential new development of all was that of the movie industry in Hollywood. Among those who saw the opportunity for mass-market cosmetics were Max Factor, Sr., Elizabeth Arden, and Helena Rubinstein. Modern synthetic hair dye was invented in 1907 by Eugene Schueller, founder of L'Oréal. He also invented sunscreen in 1936.</div><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Flapper style influenced the cosmetics of the 1920s, which embraced dark eyes, red lipstick, red nail polish, and the suntan, invented as a fashion statement by Coco Chanel. Previously, suntans had only been sported by agricultural workers, while fashionable women kept their skins as pale as possible. In the wake of Chanel's adoption of the suntan, dozens of new fake tan products were produced to help both men and women achieve the "sun-kissed" look. In Asia, skin whitening continued to represent the ideal of beauty, as it does to this day.During the 1960s and 1970s, many women in the western world influenced by feminism decided to go without any cosmetics. The anti-cosmetics movement was an outgrowth of this; feminists in this movement object to cosmetics' role in the second-class status of women, making them mere sex-objects who must waste time with cosmetics. Cosmetics in the 1970s were divided into a "natural look" for day and a more sexualized image for evening.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Modern developments in technology, such as the High shear mixer have facilitated the production of cosmetics which are more natural looking and have greater staying power in wear than their predecessors.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Cosmetic deodorant was invented in 1888, by an unknown inventor from Philadelphia, and was trademarked under the name Mumm. Roll-on deodorant was launched in 1952, and aerosol deodorant in 1965.<br />

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia; font-size: x-large;">E<span style="font-size: small;"><strong>very woman wants flawless skin, fortunately, a woman's skin doesn't have to be truly</strong></span></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia; font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>flawless to look like it is. The first steps to creating a perfect finish begins with concealing imperfections and I have just the trick to put the cover on some major imperfections.</strong></span></span><br />
<strong><br />
</strong><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong> ****<span style="font-size: large;">HOW TO HIDE MINOR SCARS</span>****</strong></span><br />
<strong><br />
</strong><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>You have to understand that pores allow </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmetics" rel="wikipedia" title="Cosmetics"><strong>makeup</strong></a><strong> to hold to the skin, and scars lack pores. A little prepping is necessary to conceal a scar.</strong></span><br />
<ul><li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Dab </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisturizer" rel="wikipedia" title="Moisturizer"><strong>moisturizer</strong></a><strong> only on the scar</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Apply a thin layer of powder one that matches your </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_skin_color" rel="wikipedia" title="Human skin color"><strong>skin tone</strong></a></span></li>
<li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Using your ring finger pat lightly around the edges to blend</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Dust with powder to set</strong></span></li>
</ul><strong><br />
</strong><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong> ******<span style="font-size: large;">SHADOWS</span>******</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>I found that the best way to brighten a shadowy area on my face is to use a Facial Highlighting Pen from </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.marykay.com/" rel="homepage" title="Mary Kay"><strong>Mary Kay Cosmetics</strong></a><strong>. It's a wonderful product that I feel every woman should have in her makeup bag. Never use a </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concealer" rel="wikipedia" title="Concealer"><strong>concealer</strong></a><strong>, at least I don't when I need to brighten a shadowy area. Mary Kay's Facial Highlighting Pen has </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light" rel="wikipedia" title="Light"><strong>light</strong></a><strong> reflecting </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigment" rel="wikipedia" title="Pigment"><strong>pigments</strong></a><strong> and sheer luminosity that concealers lack to me. The pen unlike concealers goes on after foundation is applied. Your shadowy areas would be...under the eyes, in the corner of the eyes, bridge of the nose, chin, corners of mouth. A little goes along way.</strong></span><br />
<strong><br />
</strong><br />
<strong><br />
</strong><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong> ******<span style="font-size: large;">DARK CIRCLES</span>******</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Those nasty </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_circles" rel="wikipedia" title="Eye circles"><strong>dark circles</strong></a><strong> around the eyes are a hot mess, but you can cover them up and help diminished them all together. Let me share my secrets!</strong></span><br />
<ul><li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Apply concealer at the edged of the dark area and extend up, never go below the dark area or you'll lighten the area your trying to match. Be sure to include the inside corner of the </strong><a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye" rel="wikipedia" title="Eye"><strong>eye</strong></a><strong> lids if necessary. I do to blend everything together to match.</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Using your ring finger to pat lightly the edges to blend</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>For serious dark circles, get a concealer 1 or 2 shades lighter than your skin tone</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>For long term benefits I would highly recommend Mary Kay's Timewise Targeted-Action Eye Revitalizer, which provides long term benefits.</strong></span></li>
</ul><span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong> **********</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia;"><strong>These are just some of my tricks that I learned and use to achieve my flawless face. I'm a loyal user of Mary Kay Skincare and when I'm mentioning a MK product is because I use them and know what they can do. Not only do I use the products I also sell the products. I would never ask you to use a product that I haven't tried. I hope that you find these tricks useful.</strong></span><br />

Love everything and it works beautifully!!(:<br />
<br />
<em><strong><span style="color: blue;">Benefit To Go "stay put don't stray" set</span></strong></em> is a travel size and it was $10 from <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.sephora.com/" rel="homepage" title="Sephora"><span style="color: blue;"><em><strong>Sephora</strong></em></span></a>.com and I also got a few samples as well. For this to be a travel size I love what these products has done for my makeup since I started using it . The Stay Don't Stray Primer is wonderful and I'm loving it so much that I'm going to order the full size bottle if they had a bigger size.<br />
<br />
Just wanted to try it out without paying alot of money and then having to give it away if I didn't like it. Glad that I trusted myself enough to go with my first mind and purchase it and try it. Haven't tried my samples just yet, but boy I'm digging what I have, I'm the one who picked my <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_sample" rel="wikipedia" title="Free sample">free samples</a> and I chose some really cool products to try & review. I got one of my favorite designer's fragences....<span style="color: blue;"><em><strong>Versace Bright Crystal</strong></em></span> Parfum, <span style="color: blue;"><em><strong>YSL Yeves Saint Laurent Parisienne</strong></em></span> & <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.michaelkors.com/" rel="homepage" title="Michael Kors"><em><strong>Michael Kors</strong></em></a><em><strong> </strong></em><a class="zem_slink" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=34.1,-118.333333333&spn=1.0,1.0&q=34.1,-118.333333333 (Hollywood%2C%20Los%20Angeles%2C%20California)&t=h" rel="geolocation" title="Hollywood, Los Angeles, California"><em><strong>Hollywood</strong></em></a>.

The sample bag with all my cool samples I have a sample of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_decay" rel="wikipedia" title="Urban decay"><em><strong>Urban Decay</strong></em></a><strong>'s</strong> Pocket Rocket Lipgloss and <em><strong><span style="color: blue;">Too Face Cosmetics</span></strong></em> Bronzer in Sunny. Have to admit that I was blow away with this product and can't wait to try out the rest of the line. <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh_My_Goddess%21" rel="wikipedia" title="Oh My Goddess!"><span style="color: black;">OMG!</span></a> This stuff is great and I don't advise anyone to sleep in their makeup because of the <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" rel="wikipedia" title="Bacteria">bacteria</a> makeup leaves behind (yucky)! Guilty in the first degree :-) yes I slept in my makeup last night and when I awoke, to my surprise my eyeshadow was still as fresh and crease-free! Well you know I was in shock cause my eyeshadows from past never trutly stayed on and wasn't crease proof.<br />
<br />
My primer of choice was <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.marykay.com/" rel="homepage" title="Mary Kay"><em><strong>Mary Kay</strong></em></a><strong>'s</strong> Eyeshadow Primer and it's good but it dosen't hold the shadows for long and my colors aren't as vibrent as the Benefit Stay Don't Stray Shadow Primer. I'm not talking bad about a product that I happend to own, just a fact and opinion of my own experience using it with different shadows like <em><span style="color: blue;"><strong>Nyx, MAC, L`oreal & L.A. Colors</strong></span></em> eyeshadows and other makeup that I may wear. I believe it works really really well with Mary Kay Mineral Eyeshadows only, cause they give off a soft look and it's not to over bearing and over powering to the wear /looker. If your a lady out there that loves Mary Kay like myself- you can understand or maybe not; that all primers don't work well with other products or for you. As an Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay, I truly do love all their products, some just don't work for my skin and I inform all my clients of that. I have normal/dry skin and I use products that are for my <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_skin" rel="wikipedia" title="Human skin">skin type</a>- yet sometimes it's hard to let go a product that you love, but yet you have to when you nolonger find that it works for what you need it to do. That's why I'm so not worried anymore- cause I found a product that works and I see the results for myself -even early in the morning, still looking fab!<br />

This what my eye looked like this morning after using Benefit Stay Don't Stray Eyeshadow Primer,<br />
shadow is very fresh looking and not one single crease or fadeness of the colors, still vibrent. Highly impressed with this incredible products. Litittle goes along way and this just proved the point. Just wish that Benefit Cosmetics would make a deeper color for women with daker tones. That's one down size. You have to blend, blend, blend to get the coverage you want. I also used the primer as a concealer.<br />

You'll get to pick 5 samples for your choice, please don't miss out on this wonderful product. You'll have a blast with this set- earse past is another product that I have to get in full size. Each of the pots is the perfect size to fit in your purse or in a plastic baggie to get through airport security. Wish the Stay don't Stray came in a slightly larger size...this stuff is amazing holding onto shadow and under eye concealer literally all day. Erase paste works great if you use powder over it to set it. The eye cream color is nice and neutral for everyday wear. For the price you can't beat it.This set is so cute and fun. There is actually enough amount inside each one of the bottles even though this set comes in a mini trial size. Loving all of it. Infact, I ordered another set and it should be arriving next week. Can't wait :-)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQKP8jK7C9nUhyphenhyphen9v0ehrA9jk9TDneF5EZymvgJaRSZ4m-Z8TDTXRHmOfRaBTt-bruP4R49g7cLVLNXVDPhB1IXFa19auhBL8A3CTDzKDHcKbkOYkdSXZ78fEITGqVVmhiv3x1k6IEAD3-n/s1600/SDC12098.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" rw="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQKP8jK7C9nUhyphenhyphen9v0ehrA9jk9TDneF5EZymvgJaRSZ4m-Z8TDTXRHmOfRaBTt-bruP4R49g7cLVLNXVDPhB1IXFa19auhBL8A3CTDzKDHcKbkOYkdSXZ78fEITGqVVmhiv3x1k6IEAD3-n/s640/SDC12098.JPG" width="512" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I hope that you out there read this and check it out yourself and see what the rave is.

<br />
What can I say, this is what I do in my spare time- design jewelry for friends and myself. This is a piece that I saw in a magazine and I liked the wood look and my god had to recreate this wonderful look in my version. It's a three (3) piece set that a good looking casual set to wear with jeans an a white wrap blouse. Or war it with a a nice brown or tan suite for work or evening however you choose to wear it, you'll get compliments from this exquisite red wood necklace set. <br />

<br />
If you love everything Asian then this is a set that will have you in style with a hint of Asian bliss. Asian Flair Bracelet Set is the perfect bracelet for that complete look or just to have that dash of color. Goes great with jeans or your best black suite. I have received a lot of buzz with this cute number. Working on the necklace to have a complete set.<br />

<br />
These big rocks reminds me so much of the Flintstones that I had to call it Bed Rock. Colors are blue & brownish tan spakles thatgives this piece a grand and classic look. It's not heavy on the neck and it's on streatched cord to give it that elastic feel without tugging or pulling.<br />
One of my very favorite pieces.<br />

Pearls of colors <br />
This piece is for that classy event or dinner party or a night on the town with your girls or that special guy. Having the pearls all in a cluster like ball gives the piece a fun feel and classy look. Wear ith something fun and watch how classic you'll look.<br />

I've been drinking <span style="color: #000066;"><strong><em>Silk</em> </strong></span>Chocolate Milk for about 2 years and use it for just about everything I can think of that I would use whole chocolate milk, but the <em><span style="color: #000066;"><strong>Silk</strong></span></em> milk is smooth and creamy and goes down easy.</div><br />

<div align="center">I went grocery shopping yesterday at Wal-Mart and boy did they have a sale going on, but I had to get the<em><span style="color: #993300;"> </span><span style="color: #000066;"><strong>Silk</strong></span></em> Pure Almond Original Almond Milk along with the chocolate and vanilla. My whole family loves the flavors and they like the fact that we can use it for recipes as well as ice cream. Really had this thought that I wouldn't like it cause I make my own almond milk and i was really taken back with this product. I enjoyed the almond milk very much- love it in my coffee and in my almond bread. If you haven't tried this milk I suggest that you run to your nearest store and pick some up and enjoy the refreshing taste of <span style="color: #000066;"><em><strong>Silk</strong></em></span> Pure Almond Original almond milk. Have it frozen and a little slushy, use as a coffee creamer, in your cereal, oatmeal or any kind of recipe that you have that calls for milk. You gotta love the fact that it's only 60 calories a serving and for someone like myself whose on a diet I want something that good tasting & good for my body and almonds are a great source of antioxidants that helps you look & feel good and live your best. This is why I love this milk so much. Wonderful to give to kids and giving them all the vitamins they need. Now if your allergic to nuts this milk is made from almonds. I caution you to use your best decision when <strong><em><span style="color: #000066;">Silk </span></em></strong>Soy milk there may be traces of nuts in the milk. I just wanted to share this review of <span style="color: #000066;"><em><strong>Silk</strong></em></span> Pure Almond Original Milk and I hope that this helped someone out there. All just my opinion of what I love about this milk.</div><br />
