Plexus Slim Before & After's

Hey y'all!!

I wanted to do a different kind of blog about Plexus Slim. This one will be mainly Before & After pics. Someone is more more likely to want to try a product after seeing results from people whom have tried the product. That's what originally motivated myself to begin taking Plexus products and becoming an ambassador. My dear friend began her Plexus journey and lost almost 30 pounds in a short while and she looks great!

Enough of the chit chat and let's see some Before & Afters, shall we?

Plexus Slim has helped many person's who struggle with weight loss and other ailments. Many people stop taking medications because they feel so much better while on Plexus! In fact, my good friend who introduced the product to me, was scheduled for neck surgery and a week prior to surgery she canceled it! Yes, I'm not even kidding. I was shocked too. She has had no pain and hasn't even taken her pain medicine since being on Plexus Slim. Her health is much better, as well as her weight!

I have experienced an improvement in my energy, my motivation to get the weight off, and I eat less portions of food now! Seeing what Plexus has done for others and what it is doing for me, I have also begun to eat healthier and no longer crave sweets!

Losing Weight with Plexus Slim

Ok, y'all. It's no secret that it's hard to stay healthy and slim in today's world.  There are many things to do and sometimes exercise and eating right isn't something that stays on your mind while you're running the kids around, doing errands, and not putting yourself first.  Especially for me!

I used to be a good weight, I averaged around 120-130 pounds for the most of my teens and early twenties.  I could get my butt into a size 2 jean about two years ago.  Unfortunately, my weight has caught up with my age, and it's seemed to rise.  Since I haven't been working, I must admit...I've packed on a few pounds. Or ten. Or...twen,.....-irdy.  It's taken a toll on me, and when I look in the mirror I'm just not as happy and confident as I was a couple of years ago.

I have tried many things, diet fads, pills, groups, etc. Nothing seemed to work.  Every time I saw myself, it made me depressed; therefore, causing me to want to snack. Yes, I'm well aware that this isn't the way I should have dealt with my depression. Yep, I'm aware it's what also causes me to not lose weight.  Many people struggle with weight loss and I'm here to let you know about what I finally found that WORKS for me! And, if you give me a chance, I'll bet it will work for you.


I recently was introduced to a product called Plexus Slim. Plexus Slim is a small packet that you simply pour into water, shake, and drink every day.  It's natural and safe. Plexus Slim has no caffeine or added stimulants and does not require you to miss meals or take drink shakes that taste like chalk in a bottle.  Plexus Slim helps by burning fat, not muscle, as well as helping to keep blood sugar, cholesterol, and lipids (also known as fats) at healthy levels.  

Along with taking Plexus Slim, I also take the Accelerator.  Accelerator is also a Plexus Slim product that works as a companion to Plexus Slim to help boost the weight loss effects of Plexus Slim.  The Accelerator is not a necessity for Plexus Slim to work, but rather an option to those who want to gain quicker results.  Unlike Plexus Slim, Accelerator does have caffeine in it. If you're caffeine sensitive, I wouldn't recommend adding this onto your plan.  Each Accelerator pill contains about as much caffeine as a cup of coffee.


I began taking these products about two weeks ago and have lost 8 pounds already.  Plexus Slim + Accelerator has increased my energy, reduced my snacking, and has cut my meal portions in half! I get full before I finish my dinner plate! I was never more excited about a product until I tried Plexus.  Plexus Slim also offers a variety of other products as well.  Recently, a new "Boost" was added into their product line-up, which is supposed to be better than the Accelerator.  I can't wait to try that once I'm out of my Accelerator!

I have even been feeling much better that my husband now takes Plexus Slim as well and he loves it! We both drink our Plexus Slim in the morning and feel great throughout the day.  I encourage anyone who has had weightloss struggles to please check out this product on my website! (www.plexusslim.com/mccranie) It works for me and I know it will work for you! Let me help you on your weight loss journey! We can do this together! I still have a long ways to go, but together we can kick fat in the butt!  OH! And I still have those size 2 jeans.  They will be fitting me soon! *wink wink*

Benefit They're Real Push Up Liner

Before I begin with the new Benefit eyeliner product, I wanted to inform you all that while I do love me some makeups, I am HORRIBLE, absolutely dreadful when it comes to applying eyeliner. It has just never been my thing. I have shaky hands and before I begin, I'm already expecting it to be hideous. And, of course, it always is. I have tried many brands, types, and kinds of eyeliner and there isn't one product that I have found to help my incompetence of applying eyeliner.

It's quite sad, yes I know. I'm 28 years old, love makeup, and I can not perfect eyeliner. I practice, practice and practice some more and it just doesn't work for me.  I really hope I'm not the only one out there like this. Am I? Please, someone tell me I'm not! Comment down below if you're someone like me who has struggles of applying eyeliner and what are your tips for applying eyeliner easier!

Everyone has probably at some point or another seen the above picture floating around on the internet. Every time I see it, it's like a mockery of my life. It's just sitting there laughing at me, taunting me with it's awful truth!

When I heard all the hype about Benefit Cosmetics They're Real Push Up Liner, I knew it was something I had to try. All the beauty guru's and reviews I read, it seemed like finally there is a product I just may know how to use! The product promises it gets closer to your lash line, the ease of application is better and so you won't be screaming into your mirror that your liner is uneven or just plain wrong.

Benefit Cosmetics had a couple of ways to get your hands on the new liner earlier than it is expected to be released.  One way was a contest they ran on Twitter to make a funny statement about eyeliner and add the hashtag liner crimes at the end. I tried to enter a couple of days, with  no success and on the third day of my trying I finally got picked to win! I couldn't believe it, it was the only thing I had ever won. I won with this comment,
"My eyeliner is so bad I'm wondering if I passed out and my son drew on me with a Sharpie. Makeup problems.#linercrimes @BenefitBeauty" 

The second way you could earn a chance to grab They're Real Push Up Liner early was to "Get in the Line to Fine".  Benefit gave people a chance to log onto thelinetofine.com and watch short videos, share the page to gain early access and get your shot at purchasing early.  I did this as well, and pushed my way to the front of the line, and bought my liner after only three days of 'being in line'.

When I finally received my eyeliner, I couldn't wait to see if this was the product I had been waiting for all my life. I felt like my son when he gets Christmas cards from people in the mail!  My husband didn't understand my excitement, but of course, he never does when it comes to makeup.

The packaging was super cute, as always with Benefit Cosmetics!
When I twisted off the top of the liner, I immediately noticed the soft, pointed tip that everyone has been raving about! It's soft, smooth, and flexible! It comes with a little orange topper type thing that you remove before your first use.

The instructions say for the first use, you have to twist the bottom a few times to get the gel into the pen tip. I feel like I was twisting forever before I saw product come out. But, hey, that's a small bump in the road for gorgeous eyeliner, right?  I was quite pleased at the ease of application to be honest. It didn't turn out as horrific as most other times I try and I didn't even have to remove it and try again! I know that with practice I will get better and, perhaps...dun dun dunnnnnn Do a cat eye! I know, I know....don't fuss at me. Yep, I can't do a cat eye either.

The gel is almost dry when you apply it, so you don't have to worry about it smudging. It is a deep, matte black which I love as well.  No wonder Benefit has been raving about this, as well as other Beauty Bloggers. This stuff is amaze-balls!  For an eyeliner newbie, whom is still not sure how to apply and perfect liner, this stuff is awesome! I will continue to use and practice! If you're an eyeliner expert or an eyeliner Newb like me, you're sure to fall in love yet again with Benefit Cosmetics! I highly recommend this eyeliner! 

I'll get back to you all very shortly when I perfect the sexy cat eye! Now, log onto thelinetofine.com to get your opportunity to buy this liner before it hits stores! If you can't now, I suggest when it gets in stores, you better RUN! I'm sure this is going to be flying off shelves everywhere when it gets stocked!

Thank you Benefit Cosmetics for the Twitter contest AND the opportunity to purchase the product early!

Playtex® Sport® Fresh Balance™

What does every woman need? Ok, well most times unless you've gone through the big 'M' or other medical issues....What is it? Tampons. Yea, sorry if you don't want to hear about it, but let's get real. We need it. Thank you mother nature, Eve, whomever or whatever you say when that 'time of the month' comes around.

Influenster sent me this product complimentary for testing purposes and I will say that I got more use out of this the first week I opened my Spring Vox Box than any other product.  What? I said I was being real on this one. Playtex Sport Fresh Balance tampons.

Playtex Sport Fresh Balance tampons are designed for women who are active or have a busy lifestyle. It has a 360degree Sport Level Protection that was designed to fit a womans body while it's on the move, while protecting from leaks.  You're able to be active and play your sports, be attentive to your children, or just your everyday lifestyle without the worry of an 'accident' happening. The applicator is contoured also, so there is ease of application and you're comfortable doing so.

These tampons also offer odor protection with their "Odor Shield technology". It's designed to neutralize odors so you don't have to be concerned about the not-so-fresh moments. Yes, it happens. Women, you know this! It's not the most flattering thing we'd like to remember, but this tampon helps with that problem! If you're not a fan of scents, I assure you this isn't like someone sprayed perfume on your tampon and shoved it in a wrapper, let it sit on a shelf, and waited for someone to purchase. I couldn't smell any kind of perfume or light scent, but I did notice it really helps with 'un-fresh' moments.

The packaging on this tampon is actually really cute when you open the box.  Most wrappers are bland, or just have the 'size' on the wrapper. This packaging has cartoon characters of women doing sports, hence the Sport tampon! It's really adorable and easy to open with two flaps at the top to pull apart the wrapper.

If you're a woman seeking the ultimate comfort and a worry free 'time of the month' this tampon is for you. It keeps up with your demanding lifestyle whether you do sports, a stay at home mom, career woman, it does not matter--this tampon meets every woman's needs!

Kiss everlasting French Manicure

In a previous post, I explained a little about Influenster and my involvement with them. One of the items I received in my Spring VoxBox were Kiss Everlasting French Manicure nails.  I was able to finally use them and will now give my full, honest opinion and how I put them on.  (I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes). Please view my Spring VoxBox post on how to participate in Influenster and other programs they offer! It's free to join for anyone!



When I first opened the package, I noticed there were different sizes so you can custom fit any finger nail. Each size has a partner nail. (Two pieces for each size) They are numbered on the 'easy application tip' for reference and ease of application. Along with the artificial nails there is glue to adhere the nail to your actual nail.  You can't first see all the nails in the package, but after opening the clear plastic piece the others are lying in a square dip in the back. Also included in the opposite side of the clear pack is a small nail file and a wooden cuticle pusher to help prep your nails prior to application.

To begin, I first measured each artificial nail up against my real nail to see what piece would fit properly.  It's easier to do your nails quicker if you have already set them aside and know which artificial nail will go on your real nail, versus gluing one on and then finding the next, gluing that on, etc, etc.  After finding what pieces I would use on my nails, I trimmed my nails to the appropriate length for this type of manicure. These Kiss nails are short length, perfect for everyday wear and a busy lifestyle. I then filed my nails and made my nail bed smooth so the glue would adhere better and hold the artificial nail.
Having prepped the artificial nails already, the application time was a breeze. It didn't take long at all for me to complete my manicure.  I put a couple dots of nail glue on my real nail and then picked up the artificial nail from the tip and placed on my nail. I pressed down on the nail for about ten seconds per nail to ensure it was stuck. When the nail is stuck, I then took the tip off.  The tip of the nail really helps with holding the nail and making sure it's properly placed onto your nail. You gently bend the tip back and forth for it to come off.

After completing both sets of hands, I used the nail file included to gently file the tip of the artificial nail to get rid of any bumps that may have happened due to bending the 'guide tip' off the nail.

 I must say I was quite impressed with the ease of doing this at home manicure. It was a lot less time than I would have spent at the nail salon.  The nails look quite nice, and truly look like salon quality.  These would be great for someone attending a special event, or just want a fun night out and don't want the hefty price tag of a salon manicure.  Also, these do not damage your nails like acrylics do! This product retails for around $6.49 with is a ton less than a salon manicure which ranges from $25-$35. 

So far I have had the nails on for 6 days and have no problems with them coming loose or chipping.  I haven't had to break out the extra glue or extra nails to fix any problems. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone seeking a quick manicure without the fuss and cost of a salon. 

Take back control of your life and your TIME with Kiss Everlasting French Manicure!
