Rock On! Giveaway

Things that we've always collected are: Rocks, Arrowheads, Fossils, and Mineral Specimens.

We got the spelling of our son Mica from the mineral Mica, which is a shiny silicate mineral with a layered structure, found as minute scales in granite and other rocks, or as crystals. It is used as a thermal or electrical insulator.

We have arrowheads hanging up in shadow boxes in our hallway.

I was super excited to review and giveaway Rock On! The Geology Game of Brains and Sheer Determination


What the Set Includes:

  • A Fun Learning Game
  • A 15 Specimen Rock Collection
  • 60+ Small Polished Rocks
  • Cards with Fun Facts on Rocks and Minerals
  • A Hard Plastic Carry Case

The Game

Mica liked the set because Mica is in it. He enjoyed playing the game with me as well. The game reminded me of bingo.

There are 5 levels for up to 6 players. The game is educational. It's filled with science. It's meant for elementary ages, and beyond.


If you don't care for games, it's just cool to look through the rocks and minerals. 



 


The rocks are fairly small, and are all polished.

The set comes with card to help identify everything. 


Cost:

Mineral Hygienics Review

I am excited to share with you products from Mineral Hygienics.  I don't have a lot of make-up. It's nice to get a package in the mail full of girly things; especially since I have all boys in my life.


Included in the box:
  • Sheer Perfection Silk Translucent
  • Sheer Mineral Foundation Fair
  • Sheer Mineral Foundation Fairly Light
  • Mineral Enhancer Cool Kiss

About Mineral Hygienics:
  • They are the highest rated cosmetic across the world. Why? Because they are loose powders formulated from crushed minerals that are extracted from the earth.
  • All their products are long lasting.
  • All their products contain fewer ingredients. This helps with anyone like myself that has allergies.
  • Completely free of irritants such as talc, bismuth oxychloride, dyes, parabens, mineral oil, salicylates, carmine, synthetic fragrances, methylparaben, petro-chemicals, and many other questionable chemicals. I happen to have issues with sulphites. With make-up like this there are no worries.
  • All their products are natural.
  • They have been featured in a lot of well known sources such as: Women's Health, America's Bride, The New York Times WebMD, and more.
  • They have free shipping with any order over $75. 
  • Their mini starter kits are $29.99 and their full starter kits are $59.99.
Choose your skin tone: 
Their website gives you tips based on what skin tone you have.

My face is Fair to Light.

Fair - My face has a tendency to burn easily. My sensitive skin can show redness and I get some freckles on my nose in the summer time. I look best with cool, icy tones - particularly those with blue or pink undertones, because these are colors found in my skin.

Light - My skin tans with sun exposure, but I still have to be careful not to over expose yourself. I tend to burn, and then turn tan.

My Dad has red hair, so this is where I get my Fair to Light skin complexion. 

What are my thoughts?
I love that they have tips all over their website! It's great that that you can buy their product individually and in kits. I love knowing that they are allergy safe. I did not feel like I was coating on make-up. It's really natural feeling.
