Have You Tried This Yet? (Giveaway!) #YaProbasteEsto

Our P&G luncheon at Hispanicize2013!
 NOTE: This is a sponsored post, which means I received product and/or compensation for reviewing the products, event, and writing this content. However, all opinions are my first-hand, honest experiences!

Last month was my best 30 days of 2013...so far! A big part of that was because I spent a week in Miami, Florida speaking on panels for Hispanicize 2013. In between those sessions, I signed up for the P&G's ¿Ya Probaste Esto? campaign. It translates as "Have You Tried This Yet? The mission of the campaign is to educate consumers on all the different products that P&G manufactures. I had no idea they had so many! I was lured in because these are all items I've always wanted to try, but hadn't had a chance to yet.


We attended a luncheon that was led by style expert, Irma Martinez. She talked to us all about shopping for clothes that flatter our figures, as well as an overview of the many P&G products. We dutifully listened while eating salads and fluffy cheesecake! 

I'm not a huge fashionista, I was more excited about the cleaning goods. Here is a tip from moi...you know my glittered floor? I use the Swiffer Wet Jet to clean it each week! So I was beyond excited when P&G sent us a huge box of goodies to try out, and yes, the Swiffer Wet Jet was in there. Oh! Okay, so later on during the conference, I saw that Swiffer had a booth so I entered a drawing to win a ginormous gift basket of Every. Swiffer. Product. Guess what? I WON! So now I have two Swiffer Wet Jets to use, my studio is going to be super sparkling, lol!


Here is the contents of the goodie box they sent all the attendees.
OMG, they are all the gourmet items I've always wanted to try! Scroll down, I'm giving away all this away to one of you!
 Once the luncheon ended, we were each given a Target gift card to shop for clothing that flattered our shape. I'm a curvy girl, and I snatched up this cotton frock immediately! Being a hopeless craftaholic, I think I may end up dyeing it? Maybe not. It's pretty as is, regardless, it's perfect for summer! Thank you, Target and P&G!

 Now that all the excitement has settled down, I'm looking forward to busting out the Downey Unstopables scent-boosters. Not for their intended use, though, lol. I want to make sachet pouches! They are little yummy-smelling beads that dissolve in water. I've heard of people using them for foot soaks, putting them in the garbage disposal and more. But my fave is using them to freshen up a closet or work area. Hope to blog that soon!
Here's another cool thing I picked up from the event. This collar! totally DIY-able! I love how it is trimmed in chain and then accented with assorted crystals. You can unhook it and use it with any outfit.

By the way - P&G and Latina Mom Bloggers are hosting a Twitter party on Tuesday, May 7th at 6 pm PT. Sign up HERE if you want to join and win prizes. I say, go for it! Here is more info about the Have You Tried This Yet? campaign! Check it out! You see videos and best of all, sign up to receive free samples!
