Stopain Review & Giveaway

For the past 8 years I have tried every pain reliever on the market I’ve tried heat packs, cold packs, pain patches, and every kind of gel ever made. So when I was asked to review Stopain’s topical pain relief products, I was glad to try it out.

 The Stopain products come in three forms: gel, spray, and roll-on. I decided to go with the roll-on to try out!

 

I found the product to be helpful in relieving muscle aches and lower back pain. I would consider the pain relief results to be comparable with those with  BioFreeze or MaxFreeze but with a few perks. The Stopain didn’t have nearly the smell of other topical pain relievers. I could smell it when I put it on but it went away quickly versus smelling like I took a bath in BioFreeze. I also liked the convenience of the roll-on! It was nice to be able to keep my hands clean so I wouldn’t smell it on my skin all day. Also, the roll-on was easy to toss into my purse without worrying about it leaking (which has been an issue in the past with other topical treatments I’ve tried). All-in-all, I was very pleased with the product and would definitely purchase it again once this bottle runs out!

 

Another reason to like Stopain products is that they donate a portion of every purchase to the Arthritis Foundation

What better way to kick off the week than with a giveaway!

 

If you have been a reader long, you know that I love pictures! Especially after being gifted my Nikon DSLR. Whether its formal shots (like at a studio) or snapshots around the house I love them all! I think its a trait I inherited from my mom. She could totally be on hoarders for pictures of the grandbabies. She talks to them and kisses them. Maybe we need to sign her up for Intervention instead. Now y’all know where I get my craziness from but I digress.

 

I have two problems that interfere with my love of pictures:

1- An almost 3 year old who doesn’t slow down long enough to snap a shot or she will be doing something cute (like singing)  for 20 minutes but as soon as the camera comes out she stops. She’s realized that our phones have cameras too. Nuts.

2- Energy or lack-thereof. When I first became a mom, I went crazy buying scrapbook supplies to start Abby’s lifebook. Not sure where I thought all my free time was going to come from but I had good intentions. Unfortunately those scrapbook supplies sat in my closet for months. Oops. I did manage to get some money back when I sold them on Craigslist when I accepted the fact that I would never be a scrapbooker or so I thought…

 

Then I heard about a wonderful invention called digital scrapbooking software. It is a great way to create a scrapbook of your memories without the hassle and expense for traditional scrapbooking. Another perk of digital scrapbooking? No clean-up or storage required! I loved how completed scrapbook pages looked but I hated dealing with finding a place to store the papers, embellishments, scissors, etc that would be organized and convenient. I would have much rather spent the time I took to unload and pack up my supplies with my family so when I was contacted by MyMemories to try out their software I was stoked!

 

MyMemories Suite  is a “complete digital scrapbooking solution that provides a comprehensive powerful set of creative tools no other scrapbook software can offer. With its intuitive workspace and enhanced time-saving features, this application is perfect for a beginner to create a complete album in minutes, or to empower the design pro to build a scrapbook album masterpiece.”

 

I love that this scrapbook software is completely customizable to your skill level! You can choose to build your pages from professionally designed templates or create completely on your own using a wide variety of papers, embellishments, and text! Here is a sample of what I was able to create in a matter of minutes:

My Memories Digital Scrapbook Software Giveaway

 I loved that there was a wide range of paper, fonts, and embellishments available so I was able to put my personality into the layout. I would classify myself as a girly-girl but not a sweet girly-girl if that makes sense. I love pink but like to take my pink with a little edge on it! Grays and black of course are other favorites! I chose to not go with pink on this page because I loved the blue matched up with the gray houndstooth! I am officially in love with this software! Did I mention that there was nothing to clean up? :)

 

Now its  your turn to have some fun! One lucky reader will win her own copy of MyMemories Suite Software! Here is how to enter:

1- Check out MyMemories.com and then come back here and tell me what digital paper pack was your favorite! **MANDATORY**
