For my Bzzagent assignment to try out the new Glade Expressions line, I got the Pineapple Mangosteen oil diffuser. I don't normally go fruity, but it smelled better than the lavender juniper, which on paper I'd normally choose first.
Also, I really liked the bamboo panels, probably half the reason I chose it.
I set it on my mantel in the room where our dog spends most of his time. It has scented both that side of the family room and migrated into the living room next door. I'll probably try all of them, just to be fair. I couldn't find the fragrance mist starter kits in my local grocery store, so I couldn't try it. I'd love to try the Cotton and Italian Mandarin. I like clean linen and white scents, so I will keep looking out for it or get it online.

Morningstar Farms
Three Bzzagent projects on the go at once, how exciting!
Goodness knows it's hard to get vegetables into my routine. Especially beans! Since I have the least issue with black beans, I decided to try the spicy black bean burger. You can't go wrong with spicy, and you can't go wrong with cumin. I love it. It's a healthy way to fill a sandwich, if you ask me. I mean, beans, brown rice (which when brown is considered a grain rather than a starch) and bulgur (also good for you)? That last item was a pleasant surprise to find in the ingredients list.
So I made one with Jalapeno Cheddar bread, Swiss cheese, jalapeno ranch power dressing, and tomatoes. Very, very yummy. 73% less fat than a beef burger. 'Nuff said.

Followup: Garnier Dark Spot Treatment
As a dedicated Bzzagent, I've been using the Garnier Dark Spot Overnight Peel at night for nearly a month now. I am loving what it does for my face.
I've not noticed a significant reduction - yet - in dark spots, because you need many more weeks of cumulative effect for that, and my dark spots are stubborn. But, the most immediate result was that my skin is smoother. Just....smoother. I scrub less in the shower. I can even skip daily scrubbing, and use a softer sponge rather than the hard mitt I was forced to resort to daily.
The pores on my face are shrinking, so I have fewer fat deposits in the pores of my nose and chin, two areas I had to focus on every day before starting on the Garnier Dark Spot treatment.
So, an alternate benefit for a product named for something else, but it was a problem that had been frustrating me. For this reason I will continue using and purchasing Garnier Dark Spot Overnight Peel and maybe even look into the matching products.
