There are plenty of flashlight apps out there, but I really believe that this has the strongest light. I tried the iLights app against my old flashlight app I had on my iPhone, and really thought it was much brighter. I’ll admit it may be my imagination. I tried both in a dark closet, because I am all about product testing for you guys!
It’s a pretty simple app, and best of all, it’s free. It also has a strobe light feature. I use the flashlight app a lot on my iPhone, whether it is in the middle of the night, power failure, or just trying to find something I dropped in the floor of my car!
From the developer:
The best FREE flashlight and strobe app using the iPhone 4 / 4S / 5/ 5s camera LED flash!
*** Super Bright, Hot White LED Lighting***
The LED flash provides a true, single point light source, unlike those other apps that simply control the iPhone screen.
Features:
* Fast loading
* Flashlight – Turn the LED flash ON (torch mode)
* Adjustable strobe speed
* Up to 10 flashes per second! 10 Hz!
Uses:
* Find your stuff in the dark just like a real flashlight
* Throw a party anywhere with the strobe light!
Disclaimer: Continued use of the flash may dramatically decrease battery life.

I never tire of finding new ways to cook chicken. I think I have made chicken 473,393,812 different ways so far.
Here’s a easy, yummy recipe, Weight Watchers friendly at only 5 points plus per serving from laaloosh.com.
Milk Chicken
- 2 lbs skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 6 fillets
- 2 cups 2% milk
- 2 tbsp light butter
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 5-6 garlic cloves, whole
- 1 small cinnamon stick
- 1/3 cup fresh sage leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Place a large, oven safe pot (like a Dutch oven) over medium high heat, and melt the butter. Salt and pepper the chicken generously, then place in the pot, and to brown on each side (about 3-4 minutes per side).
- Remove pot from heat. Add in the remaining ingredients, cover with a lid, and place in the oven, and cook until chicken is cooked through and is moist and tender, about 40 minutes.
This dish is great with chicken thighs in place of, or in addition to, the chicken breasts. Just remember to factor in an extra Point or two. 🙂

If you are looking for ALL DAY coverage on your pretty little lippies, look no further than Maybelline Superstay 24 Color. It truly does last a long time. I apply in the morning, and then just add a little gloss or balm over it throughout the day. It comes with the lip stain on one end and clear lip balm on the other. I must say it is very dry by itself, but it doesn’t appear dry to anyone looking at you, so even when you haven’t had a chance to add a little gloss to it during the day, it still wears like armor! It ain’t goin’ no where! Eat, drink, kiss, whatever, it stays on!
These are the three shades I have. I still am looking for the nudest color for the summer, which appears to be from looking at the chart to be So Pearly Pink. I haven’t been able to find it in the any of the stores I’ve hit. The colors above from left to right are Timeless Toffee, Perpetual Plum, and Wear On Wildberry. I decided to show you what three of the colors look like in real life so you can compare to the chart of colors that Maybelline provides.
The doe-foot applicator wand is great too, especially if you have thin lips like me. My lips are the only thing on me that is thin and I wish it were the only thing on me that was bigger! The applicator aids in completely covering the lips without going outside the lines. And the color doesn’t transfer onto anything once it’s dried. I hate when I end up looking like a little old lady with the lipstick on my coffee cup or glass!
You can find this at any drugstore, superstore, or online, as usual, and it runs around $8-9 per tube.
From Maybelline:
NO OTHER LONG WEARING LIPSTICK LASTS LONGER. Period.
Our Micro-Flex formula glides on and looks gorgeous all day
Meet the 24-hour lip color that stretches the limits of longwear:
- Micro-Flex formula glides on and looks gorgeous all day
- No crumbling, no caking, no fading, no feathering, no transferring
- 2-step lip color in one pack
Apply the liquid lip color to your clean, bare lips. Allow a full two minutes to dry, then apply ultra-conditioning balm to seal in softness. Reapply balm as needed. Remove with an oil-based makeup remover.
