{Win a Spa Getaway for 4 from Bloom.com}

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Bloom.com for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

So, I have a couple of issues I want to talk about today. 

Issue #1:  I'm getting older!

This is no surprize, really.  And I don't really have an issue with the number or anything -- 39 in October, woot, woot!  What is bothering me is that my face is different.  I look in the mirror sometimes and think, "Who is that mess?"  My skin is a different texture.  My {mostly-gray-really-but-still-brown-thanks-to-L'Oreal} hair is a different texture.  The makeup colors and finishes I have always used look . . . weird, for lack of a better descriptive word.  Lots of people told me this would happen.  I just didn't believe it, I guess.  I feel like I went to bed one night all youthful and dewy skinned and woke up the next day all dry and dull-looking.

How do you know what to do when this happens?  Obviously I need new products, but which ones?!  I don't want to waste a ton of money buying things all willy-nilly, hoping to find something great.  I don't have the time or the budget for that.  I was pretty dang excited to find Bloom.com.  Bloom.com is a social beauty network that will "revolutionize" the way we all find and buy the right products.

I logged on and used the Best4You Beauty Finder tool.  It asks for different information depending on the product you're looking for -- birthday, skin type, etc. -- and then recommends products.  It gives you the Best Overall, Best New, Best on a Budget, Best Natural and various other best picks.   Bloom.com has 10,00 items from over 150 top brands, so there is bound to be something you'll like.  You can also read unbiased feedback on the products from other Bloom.com users.  That is exactly what I need!

Even cooler is the fact that your purchases will come with free gifts AND 10% back in Bloom Dollars.  {First time purchasers will get 30% back on their first order!!}  With that issue on its way to being solved, let's look at

Issue #2:  I need a vacation!
I know, I know.  I just got to go on a girl's cruise with a bunch of friends in January.  It's more than anyone could ask for, but if I'm being totally honest, I wanna' get away again.  Bloom.com to the rescue again:
