About the Author

I'm Michelle Cox -- the owner of Lipstick to Crayons. I’m also a Mom to three kids (a teen, tween and toddler), a professional writer (www.michellemcox.com) and a blogger (www.fromthemom.com). And I love to save money (and help you do the same) via frugal deals and steals, coupons and other thrifty practices. My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.

HUGE Giveaway worth almost $200 from Kymaro! – CLOSED

feature photo

Kymaro Health and Beauty products are designed to help women look their best all the time. I have personally reviewed the Kymaro Body  Shaper, which creates a smoother silhouette under fitted tees and dresses.  I liked how the fabric is soft and lightweight, but it doesn’t roll up under your clothes. And it’s thin enough to be worn with the clingiest of fabrics.

But Kymaro Health and Beauty makes a host of other products, and they’d like to give one of my lucky readers a prize pack that includes more than $180 worth of stuff such as curve control jeans, a mini hair straightener, a backless bra, eyelash extenders and more.  Here are details on the products in the prize pack:

Body Shaper
Kymaro’s New Body Shaper is the fastest way to get your figure back.  You just slip it on and watch as the inches just seem to melt away.  Starting from below the bust line, Kymaro’s New Body Shaper comfortably shapes all your problem areas by hugging your body to create a smooth, bump- free silhouette.  This unique design focuses on your comfort.

Curve Control Jeans
Kymaro® Curve Control Jeans have come up with a solution to fix any body type…the special denim weave contours to your body, the same way shape wear holds you in, but this is all jean. The Curve Control ™ Jeans will shape you and mold to your body lifting your bottom, flattening your stomach, making you look and feel your best.

Kymaro’s ® Mini Hair Straightener
Introducing Kymaro’s ® Mini Straightener – ideal for short hair, bangs, touch-ups and travel! As the size of a permanent market, this flat iron straightens the hair from the root with ease.  But don’t be fooled, just because its small doesn’t mean it’s not powerful.  The mini beauty tool delivers instant styling results with its ceramic heater without taking up too much room. Its 6-inch long, compact and light weight design makes it the perfect styling tool to use on-the-go.

Kymaro Fix My Roots
A beauty tool that fixes your worst hair nightmares in just seconds with no mixing and no hassle! Fix My Roots can cover gray, dark or light roots without flaking or rubbing off! The special formula bonds to your hair and washes out when shampooed.  Fix My Roots is an easy-to-use and mess free tool that applies expert color to your hair with control and precision.  Bring this anywhere and everywhere – if you find a grey or you need a quick touch up, this is your solution!

Kymaro Glamour Eyes Eyelash Extension Kit
Getting eyelash extensions applied at a salon can cost you over $500 and the whole process can take up to 2 hours – but thanks to Kymaro’s Glamour Eyes you can now get eyelash extensions in three different lengths: short, medium, long in less than 10 minutes! With two specially formulated adhesives to bond each extension to your natural lash, one in black and one in white you can create a beautiful and glamour look!

Backless Bra
The KYMARO ® BACKLESS BRA is backless and strapless, making it ideal under tricky styles and dresses. Supportive, seamless and invisible under clothing, the KYMARO ® BACKLESS BRA even creates sexy cleavage like a normal push-up!

Portable Hair Dryer
With a powerful 1875 Watts, Kymaro’s ® Portable Hair Dryer provides maximum temperature and airflow to deliver shiny, smooth, frizz-free locks. The portable hair dryer comes with a concentrator attachment for twice as fast drying time, removable lint filter for easy cleaning and longer lasting motor life.  This lightweight professional grade dryer with a folding handle to facilitate storage and easy travel makes styling fast, efficient and hassle-free!

Sunless Tanning System
Kymaro Sunless Tanning System gives you a natural, healthy looking tan without the embarrassing streaks that scream “I’m faking it!” Used in world class spas nationwide, Kymaro’s Sunless Tanning System is the only reliable option when it comes to tanning.

Rhythm Rocker by Kymaro
Unleash the dancer in you and sculpt the body you’ve always dreamed about with the Kymaro Rhythm Rocker. The Rhythm Rocker replaces boring old workouts with today’s’ Rockin’ Latin, Crunchin’ Hip Hop and Rollin’ Belly Dance Moves. The EZ-grip handles allow you to create your own perfect level of resistance, simply by leveraging your body weight against the tilting action of the seat. Advance at your own speed from easy moves, all the way to extreme muscle extensions that dramatically increase your range of motion.
