Protect Your Boots with Booty Shapers - Review & Reader Giveaway

Sponsored by Tomoson.com

I love boots, especially tall boots, but they can be a MESS to store in the closet.  The tops flop all over the place and, worse yet, that "flopping" can lead to creases depending on the type of leather/material and how long your boots have been stored.

Well, now there is a simple solution that someone really should have thought of sooner - - Booty Shapers.  They are super simple to use, just inflate the shaper and insert into your boot.  It will stand straight up in your closet, taking up less space and protecting your boot.  They are also great for keeping your boots in shape during summer storage and while  traveling.  And, since they are so lightweight, they won't add any extra weight to your luggage.

Buy It:  The suggested retail price is $9.99 and they can be purchased through nationwide retailers or online.  A few of the stores selling them are:  Amazon.com, Organize.com, Bed Bath & Beyond, CVS, Annie Sez and more. 

Win It:  One lucky Beauty by Jinxy reader will win their own package of Booty Shapers.  To enter, just check out Booty Shapers here and then fill out the form below.

Briefly Lightweight Underwear - Review and Reader Giveaway

Starting to write a review is usually very easy for me. I start by telling you about a product and what it's used for and then tell you how I like it. In this case, I'm having a hard time starting my review of Briefly Lightweight Underwear because it just has SO many uses that I don't know where to start. To begin, Briefly is 100% cotton lightweight underwear rolled up and individually wrapped. This convenience factor leads to SOOO many uses. They are small enough to keep one in your purse, glove box or desk drawer for instances when you need a spare pair. They're great for travel since they take up little space and weight in your luggage. You can keep them on hand for guests or include in care packages. This is just the tip of the iceberg....see more uses here.

It's one think to make underwear that is useful and convenient, but the real plus is that Briefly is also SUPER comfortable!  It's so light and breathable.  I'm really impressed with how comfortable they feel and they still look cute even though they are comfy (which isn't always the case with comfy panties!)  They are available in a variety of styles including bikini and thong for women and briefs and boxers for men, as well as kids styles. Pricing is very reasonable at $4.99 for a basic bikine or thong 3-pack or $6.99 for pastel 4-packs or men's 3-packs. 

With every pack sold a pair of Briefly 100% cotton underwear is given to disaster victims and local shelters through their Briefly Cares program. You can also make a donation to help in the efforts $1 = 1 pair. They deliver them directly to local disaster shelters, give them to reputable organizations such as the Red Cross and hard working individuals and independent charities like the Airline ambassadors and BadDivers.com who donate their time and resources to get help directly to the areas needed.

Buy It:  You can buy online at BrieflyUnderwear.com.  And, just for Beauty by Jinxy readers, you can take 10% off your order when you enter coupon code Jinxy1 at checkout. 

Win It:  Five (5) lucky Beauty by Jinxy readers will each win two packs of Briefly Lightweight Underwear.  To enter, just visit BrieflyUnderwear.com and then fill out the form below letting us know which which style you like most AND where you would like to see Briefly Underwear sold.

Uwaduhi - The Designer Fashion Accessory for Your Uggs - Review & Reader Giveaway

Do you love your Uggs? Well, now you can make them even more versatile and show off your unique sense of style with a new designer fashion accessory - Uwaduhi!  Uwaduhi is a premier collection of designer boot accessories designed to be worn over many types of boots, including Uggs® Brand and Ugg-type boots. It’s a way to change the look of your boot without having to buy a new pair! 

They are made from a variety of quality and exclusive materials including faux fur, feathers, genuine suede, jacquard ribbons, tassels, beads, and much more. They help you to embellish and individualize your boots in a distinctive and stylish way.

You don't have to stick to only your classic Uggs either.  Uwaduhi can be worn with classic tall, short, mini, cardy, or bailey button sheepskin boots.  You can even wear over top of leather boots or cowboy boots! Wants to skip the boots all together?  Try them with your favorite jeans and a pair of clogs.

I received Uwaduhi to try out myself and I liked them as soon as I opened the package.  The faux fur had such a nice "high quality" feel to it and the embellishment was so unique.  They were very easy to put on my boots - only took a few seconds.  As soon as I tried them, it was like I had a whole new pair of boots!  They're really a great way to extend your footwear wardrobe with only a minimal investment.
