It's freebie time! I don't know about anyone else, but I love going to my mailbox to see what freebies are there. Lately I've been receiving a lot of K-Cup coffee offers I signed up for about 6 weeks ago. Not just one K-Cup either, they're four packs! Have you scored any of the freebies offered in the Weekly Round-Up?

There are some free beauty products this week. You can get a free samples of St.Ive's Blemish Control Apricot Scrub. Just upload a photo and follow instructions to create a poster and then submit it to get your sample. Dark & Lovely is offering a free sample of Anit-Reversion Cream Serum.

I'm no fashionista- my wardrobe is typically some variation of a nice blouse with pants tucked into boots- or a belted skirt and cardigan. My hair? That's something else entirely. All my life, I've had to deal with frizzy, curly hair, trying to whip it into something manageable and slightly presentable. Regardless of my outfit choice of the day, if my hair looks good, I'm likely to be in a similar mood.

I'll admit it- I've tortured my hair in the past. A natural brunette, I've endured bi-monthly bleaching sessions at the salon for months, to make my coif a platinum blonde. There's only so much your hair can take before it rebels though, so I went back to brunette, where I battled frizz with flat irons and finally underwent a Brazilian Blowout. For only $300, I had sleek hair for three months. For those of you not familiar with this treatment, the stylist applies a chemical to your hair before sealing it with heat. The Brazilian Blowout removes all frizz, so your hair looks stick straight after drying. Of course, you're literally bathing your hair in chemicals, and recently it has come to light that the treatment contains formaldehyde (the cancer-causing ingredient used as a preserving agent). No thanks.
