The Skinny:

I love reviewing things. Not only that, but I am a walking AND talking billboard. I am always more than willing to discuss a new product I have found. I often strike up conversations while shopping with complete strangers. I pride myself on always being as professional as possible. I will never speak ill out of malice or non-agreement. When you work with me, you will never have to worry about having an uncomfortable experience. I always encourage you to contact me if you feel un-easy about a review/giveaway. I will NEVER write a bad review. If I encounter a problem with the item, you will be the first and only to know.

I accept most items. Full size only (unless otherwise stated from the beginning.) I do not pay for any items or shipping. I do accept paid advertisements and reviews.

the mini Beach bird has been activly online for about 3 months, has over 200 GFC follows, over 200 subscribers, and over 200 twitter follows. I also have had over 2000 Visitors with around 1200 Absolute Unique Visitors with over 3500 page views. Most are female, in between 18-75, and make a life out of being a mother. As well as over half my readers being "green" or ecologically friendly.

Unlike many blogs, I DO happily accept and review/giveaway adult material (18+).

*These items may be reviewed by a personal, professional associate of mine. I have many close friends working in marketing, product development, magazines, and other everyday areas. If I feel their professional experience is a better judge than mine, I may approach them to do the review for me. I will then hold a personal interview with them to gather information on the product and their experience. You will be notified first, and all final reviews go through me first.

Is what I do ok with you?

About My Policies:

I require a full-size version of the product. (Unless otherwise stated from the beginning)
I am willing to do review only, but I greatly prefer to host a giveaway.
I am NEVER willing to put forth money for a product. I will NOT pay for any shipping or handling charges. (Please contact me directly if you have any questions about this matter.)
