Teen Vogue recently declared that the backpack is making a comeback. When I had an opportunity to review a Yak Pak backpack, I just couldn’t refuse.
I received a cute, durable backpack with a musical pattern design. I could see myself using the backpack to tote around clothes to the gym, as an overnight bag, or as an alternative to a purse for outdoor events.
The best part about Yak Pak backpacks are how affordable they are. With Yak Pak, you don’t have to break the bank to look good! Yak Pak backpacks retail between the affordable price of $25- $45 and are sold at popular national and boutique retailers, like Tilly’s, around the country!
If you’re in the market for a fabulous and affordable backpack, check out Yak Pak. These are also awesome gifts for teens and tweens.

I was recently given a sample of SmartMouth 12 Hour Mouthwash to review here at Dolce Beauty. I was very intrigued by this mouthwash, which does not contain alcohol, that claims to maintain fresh breath for at least twelve hours.
The secret is apparently in the dual product formula that actually comes in two separate squirt containers to be blended directly before use. You just pump four squirts of each formula into the provided cup to combine. Then, swish for 30-60 seconds, and enjoy your fresh breath! Sounds easy enough, right?
I really liked the fact that this mouthwash did not contain harsh alcohol. It does contain zinc and other active ingredients, though, so it may leave a “strange” feeling at first. This goes away very quickly and the fresh breath does really last. I also liked the minty flavor.
SmartMouth also comes in gum, toothpaste, and mints. You can learn more about SmartMouth products here. They also currently offer a $2. off coupon.

I do not live in the Los Angeles area, but if you do, you may want to look into this Los Angeles Dermatologist. In L.A., there is a high level of pressure to stay fit, young and beautiful.

That amazing scent from Burt’s Bees Lemon Cuticle Cream is replicated in their Lemon & Vitamin E Bath and Body Oil ($8). I love the lemony fragrance of this 100% natural oil, and think it is a great moisturizer for any skin type. It is a light body oil that you can apply directly to your skin after showering, or add to your bath water for a relaxing soak.
The ingredients in Burt’s Bees Lemon & Vitamin E Bath and Body Oil are:
Prunus amygdalus dulcis (sweet almond) oil, citrus medica limonum (lemon) oil, triticum vulgare (wheat) germ oil, tocopherol, rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf extract, glycine soja (soybean) oil, canola oil
I love the fact that they use light oils like sweet almond oil so that it isn’t heavy or too slick to use regularly. I received a press sample of this product and am loving to use it. I’d totally buy it once this runs out. If you’re a lemon lover like me, you won’t be disappointed in this awesome little bottle.
