Sweetsation Therapy Sun Si'belle Moisturizing Tinted Sunscreen Hydrates & Protects

The Sun Si'belle Moisturizing Tinted Sunscreen with SPF 30 actually functions more like a BB Cream. It is a smooth, creamy, easily spreadable cream that provides sun protection, skin hydration, and improves the complexion. This product is lightly tinted. It blends easily, absorbs quickly, and improves skin texture. One thing I found is that it is better to use only a small amount, otherwise it can be too shiney. This product really gave my skin a sun-kissed look. It reduced fine lines and wrinkles, smoothed pores and provided a nice glow and healthy look to my face. I also used it on my legs to provide a slight tanned look and it worked perfectly. I definitely enjoyed using this multi-function product and recommend it for light coverage, sun-kissed glow, SPF30 sunscreen, antioxidants and skin hydration.

First BotanyCosmeceuticals Ultra Moisture Magnet Serum Imparts Long Lasting Hydration

This product comes in a white plastic pump bottle. It is a very liquid serum, so get ready to only slowly pump a small amount into the palm or fingers. Because it is so liquid it spreads very easily and covers a large area. One full pump could cover the entire face and most of the chin and neck area. I prefer to use it 1/2 pump at a time to better control the application. It does take a few minutes to absorb. However, immediately you can feel the hydration. The skin plumps, softens and becomes smooth. Fine lines and small wrinkles disappear. The product claims 50X Hyaluronic Acid Strength. I'm not a chemist, so I can't confirm an actual 50X, but the product does seem to draw moisture into the skin in a more long lasting way. I use this nightly under my moisturizer. This double dose of hydration leaves my skin looking beautiful the next day. The benefits remain even after cleansing. Long term use continues the benefits. I definitely recommend First Botany Cosmeceuticals Ultra Moisture Magnet Serum 50X Strength Hyaluronic Acid for hydrating, refining, and smoothing skin care.

NutriONN Helps You Stay Healthy

I was diagnosed with high cholesterol and I was determined to not take any statins as I know several people who have had side effects from them. The last thing I need is another prescription and more side effects. To lower my cholesterol I cut out processed foods, reduced fats and started taking Omega3, Flaxseed Oil, Lecithin and NutriONN Psyllium Husk. I had been taking Oat Bran fiber, but usually that big and dry tablet got stuck in my throat. NutriONN's Psyllium Husk capsules go down much easier and actually work better than oat or rice bran tablets. It is a natural source of fiber, made in the USA, has zero added artificial ingredients and is great for weight loss and heart health. The main thing to remember about any fiber supplements is to drink plenty of water while taking them and between meals. These types of fiber are not absorbed in the intestines and provide a filler so you feel full even as you are eating less. I am very pleased with NutriONN's Psyllium Husk and, even though your results may not be identical to mine, do recommend it for your heart, health and well-being.

Beverly Diamonds For Quality and Great Customer Service

Looking for style? Looking for quality? Look no further than Beverly Diamonds. I received a beautiful ring from Beverly Diamonds. Although it is a simple band with a small stone, it shines with beautiful style. I have had many compliments on this ring and am proud to wear it every day. Also, Beverly Diamonds follows up with great customer service. Sadly, pictures on the website just don't do justice to the beautiful gems and jewelry that are sold by Beverly Diamonds. The ring I received was so much nicer than I expected. I have been very pleased with their products and service and definitely recommend them. While their styles are beautiful, they let you even design your own rings and jewelry. I'm confident that they have or could make anything to suit everyone.

With continued use it keeps the skin hydrated. It is very helpful for dry skin to restore the balance of the skin, preventing it from feeling tight, dry and itchy. Only one squirt is needed for the face, with an additional one for the chin and neck area. I use either cotton balls or even folded tissues to apply the toner.

It has improved my skin texture and my skin is soft even after cleansing. This toner also removes any makeup residue or soap left over after cleansing.

The Detangler Brush Works Like Magic

I have several detangler brushes, but this one is my favorite because it is the perfect size to fit in my hand. I do not know how the detangler brush works it's magic, but it easily, carefully and completely moves through my wet or dry hair without pulling, snagging or clumping up the hair into a knot. It glides through my hair and even helps tame my frizzies. I can even keep it in the shower for use right after shampooing. It is easy to clean and keep clear of lost hair. I used to spend quite a bit of time trying to untangle my hair, often causing breakage and snags. But now I know I can get this brush through my hair in rapid time and have it looking perfect, shiney and smooth. It also gives your scalp a small massage, keeping it feeling great. I definitely recommend this Detangler no matter what your hair length is.

Cornucopia Brand 8oz Cobalt Blue Bottles Are So Much Better Than Plastic

This product comes as a two-pack spray bottle. The blue glass provides extra protection from oxidation from the sun and strong light. This is especially helpful for products containing essential oils. Some essential oils can actually degrade plastic bottles over time. I make my own cleaning products, so these bottles work perfectly when I add lemon, peppermint, tea tree, neem and other oils. For my cleaning I usually use vinegar, and really hate the smell. Now that I can use a glass bottle I can add as much essential oil or fragrance as I want without fear that it will degrade, soften or create leakage from the bottle.The sprayer works very well and has several settings; wide spray to cover a larger area, narrow stream for focused spraying and off to keep the products from evaporating. My only issue is that the sprayer is rather loud when spraying. They are easy to fill and easy to use. I definitely recommend this product for all your spraying needs.

The Jaylie/Spivler Enterprises, LLC Mini Blue Salon Nail Files Work Great On Acrylics and Natural Nails

These cushion nail files are 120 grit on one side, for smoothing, and 240 grit on the other, to rapidly file natural or artificial nails. They are very convenient to carry in a pocket, purse, or to have in the car or around the house. They show minimal wear, even after using them on a full set of acrylic nails. The thing I like most about these files is that the price is so reasonable that I can carry some and also give some to others. This keeps my nails healthy and protects me and others from any nail disorders. These are also great in the salon, allowing me to give each customer their own file after manicures and pedicures. I definitely recommend these files and the others, with a variety of grits and sizes, from Jaylie on Amazon.

VIA Cosmedics Sea Whip Cucumber Detox Soothing Gel Refreshes and Revitalizes Your Skin

I loved this gel. It is beautifully, lightly scented, applies and spreads easily, and rinses off quickly. I use this before I shower, letting it partially set before going into the shower, then letting the steam from the shower help to open my pores. After rinsing completely and patting dry, my skin is luminous, hydrated, impeccably clean, smooth and soft. My pores seem minimized and my skin tone is improved. It also seems to remove any built up dirt, pollution, or makeup that might have remained on my skin. It really does feel like it has detoxed my skin, taking away all the environmental residue and leaving behind clean, clear skin. I do find that the longer I leave it on, the better my skin looks. I definitely recommend this wonderful gel to clean, hydrate, and improve your skin.

FineNaturals Premium Dark Organic Cocoa Is Strong and Flavorful

I love cocoa and chocolate. I was excited to compare the FineNaturals Dark Organic Cocoa with other cocoas that I drink. I found the flavor in this cocoa to be very rich, very strong, with a deep chocolate flavor. It is so flavorful that it could even be used and enjoyed without any sweetening. I compared the FineNaturals cocoa with another organic cocoa. Again, FineNaturals had a much stronger, deeper chocolate flavor. I finally compared it with a mass market cocoa. The FineNaturals had a much more flavorful taste, bringing with it undertones of vanilla and an underlying sweetness. This is a pure, dark cocoa. There is no bitterness, grittiness, or unpleasant aftertaste. It is enjoyable to drink this cocoa or even to use it in baking. I definitely recommend this cocoa for depth of flavor, enjoyable taste, and organic goodness.

OZ Naturals Age Defying Tinted Sunscreen Has Multiple Functions To Improve and Protect Skin

I have used many products by OZ Naturals and have found them all to be high quality, with positive results. Their Age Defying Tinted Sunscreen is no exception. It has many of the functions as a BB/CC cream. It goes on easily and spreads well. The light tint gives skin on the face and neck a sun-kissed glow. It does take some time to fully absorb, but then additional face makeup can be applied. It forms a smooth base for makeup and keeps the makeup from running. Additionally, it moisturizes the skin, leaving a dewy finish, hiding fine lines and wrinkles. It makes the skin soft and smooths the texture of the skin. It lessens the appearance of acne scars, discolorations, and uneven skin tone. I love that it provides all these benefits in addition to providing much needed sunscreen. I use this cream every time I go outside. I love the results and feel it truly makes my skin look better. Even after cleansing, my skin remains soft, smooth and hydrated. While your results may not be identical to mine, I definitely recommend this Age Defying Sunscreen to protect and beautify your skin.

Inspire Yourself!

US Art Supplies Small Canvas Assortment is a great way to get back into art and craft. The panels are a firm board that is nicely gessoed. I found that acrylic and even watercolors worked well on them. The various sizes have inspired me to start small projects. It is so much easier to face a 4"X6" canvas and I've found that it helps me to think and plan for the small space. I had a project where I am building a 3D diorama from found objects and the canvas provided the firm base that I needed. It held up very well even with water-thinned paints and glues. I definitely recommend these high quality canvas boards for your artistic and crafting projects.

FSL Al13 Heavy Bass Aluminum Earbuds Provide Great Sound for Music and the Spoken Word

I wanted an Earbud that would give me great sound when I listen to music, but also provide that same great sound when I was listening to audio books or podcasts. I love turning the bass up on my music. I also love the clarity of sound. The FSL AL13 Heavy Bass Earbuds fit the bill for all of the above. These earbuds, which come in a small velour bag for storage provide excellent sound, with heavy bass and great high notes. They help to provide noise cancelling and work on all my electronics. One great advantage is having a flat cable for each earbud. I've never used a flat cable before, but it works well to keep them untangled, even after I've folded them up for the storage case. It also helps them to stay tangle free when moving around with the earbuds in my ears. These earbuds come with 3 sizes of rubber eartips. This is excellent because one of my ears takes a small and the other takes a medium for comfortable fit and noise cancelling. I definitely recommend these earbuds for daily use for all your sound products. They are well made, comfortable, and provide exactly the range of sound I needed.

Keeva Tea Tree Cream for Acne and Every Skin Care

I have used tea tree oil for it's healing, antiseptic, antifungal and health benefits, but one of the things that is frustrating is that it is a thin oil and every time I use it, it seems to go everywhere. It also takes awhile to absorb. I was very excited to see that Keeva has made it available in a cream. The Keeva Tea Tree Cream absorbs easily and quickly and leaves a wonderful minty, cooling feel to the skin, even after it is absorbed. It increases skin softness, decreases fine lines and wrinkles and increases skin healing, while soothing irritated or blemished skin. Only a small amount is needed to revive the skin and heal. For blemishes, dotting on Keeva, then patting gently until it is absorbed, works the best. It works rapidly, healing blemishes and scratches. It also seems to reduce under eye circles. I have also started to use this Keeva Tea Tree Cream for the backs of my hands that often get dry. I am very pleased with this general all purpose product. While your results may not be identical to mine, I definitely recommend Keeva Tea Tree Cream for the health of your skin.

ISA Professional Organic Extra Virgin Argan OIl For Hair, Skin and Nails

I have used products from ISA Professional before and have liked all of them. This Organic Argan Oil is no exception. This lightweight amber Argan Oil spreads easily and absorbs quickly. It is not greasy, sticky or oily on the skin. I also mix 2 dropperfulls of the oil in my hair conditioner so my hair and scalp benefit with every time I shampoo and condition. The great thing about Argan Oil is that a little goes a long way. One or two drops does all 10 of my nails and cuticles. If I am styling my hair and need a bit more shine and manageability, I put just 3 drops in my palms and rub my hands together and then through my hair. This is also a great nighttime treatment for my face and neck. Again, using only a few drops covers my face, chin and neck area. I wake the next morning with soft, smooth skin that stays hydrated. It smooths fine lines and wrinkles. The best part about this product is that it is 100% Argan Oil, there is nothing else, and this is Organic Argan Oil, making it free of any pollutants, fillers, chemicals or additives.

Amara Vitamin C Cleanser Is Gentle and Effective

This cleanser has many advantages over other cleansers. It is made in the USA and it is cruelty free. It also does not contain harsh chemicals, such as sulfates parabens, dyes or fragrance. It basically has no smell when you use it. Because it is sulfate free it doesn't lather quite as much as other cleansers, but it removes makeup or other creams and serums on your face. I use it in the evening to wash my face. Once I have rinsed, I find my skin is soft and there is no feeling of dry skin, flaking, or itchiness. It does an effective job removing foundation, blush/bronzer, and eye makeup, including mascara. The softness of the skin lasts even after the cleanser is rinsed off. This is due to the healing power of Vitamin C, Rosehip Seed Oil, Tea Tree Oil, and Organic Aloe. The Aloe helps heal, the tea tree oil helps keep the skin and pores clear, the Vitamin C and Rosehip Seed Oil return natural moisture and hydration to the skin. I definitely recommend this cleanser to assure your skin and pore are fully cleaned and healthy.

Beauty By Shea/Hydracentials Raw Organic Unfiltered Shea Butter Makes Beautiful Body Butters

I had not used raw shea butter before, but wanted to try my hand at some body butters. I found a number of recipes online and after reading them all decided to make one of my own. There are numerous questions about how to make a body butter. Most recipes say to melt the shea butter, but that could lead to graininess. I decided that I would just use room temperature raw shea butter and go from there. So this is the recipe I came up with:
4 oz. room temperature Beauty By Shea Raw Organic Unfiltered Shea Butter, mash this up in a bowl with a spoon
2 tablespoons base oil (I used fractionated coconut oil for this), mash this in
10-20 drops of essential oil, mash this in
Then break out those arm muscles and rapidly stir with a spoon until it starts to resemble whipped edible butter. This did not take long, perhaps a minute or two.

The result was perfection. I should have added a bit more essential oil, but the body butter was gorgeous. I put it into small containers. One of these I took to a friend who is recovering from surgery. Her skin had gotten so dry and flakey in the hospital and at home. I rubbed this body butter onto her skin and it immediately penetrated and I could see that it removed all the flakes and rehydrated the skin, without being greasy. I definitely recommend this Shea Butter from Beauty By Shea. I am a novice at making things like this and was so pleased that it worked perfectly the first time out, even though I had made up my own recipe. This Shea Butter is easy to measure and easy to work with. While your results may not be identical to mine (I think some body butters may be more difficult than others and may be affected by your weather, humidity, and temperature), I do believe you, too, can make your own body butter for a fraction of the cost of the "department store" brands.

New Radiance Naturals Professional Hyaluronic Acid Serum Rehydrates and Smoothes Skin

New Radiance Naturals Professional Hyaluronic Acid Serum is a slightly rose scented, thick serum that glides on, spreads easily and absorbs quickly. It comes in an amber glass bottle with an eye-dropper. The full benefits of rehydration and smoothing are reinforced by using this at least daily, if not twice a day. One dropper is all that I use to cover my face, with half a dropper full for my chin and neck. I can literally feel it relaxing dry, tense skin. It is slightly cooling and refreshing too. I apply this in the morning, wait for it to absorb and then apply my makeup. Since it absorbs fully, my makeup stays in place and my skin remains hydrated all day. In the evening, I wash my face and use a toner, then apply the serum so it keeps hydrating overnight. This product also has additional ingredients that help support a healthy skin, such as Organic Aloe, Vitamins C and E, Wildcrafted Herbs and Essential Oils. I definitely recommend this Hyaluronic Acid Serum as part of a daily skincare regimen. Over time, I've seen how it improves my skin and keeps it feeling and looking great.

Leven Rose Organic Jojoba Oil for Skin and Hair

Leven Rose Organic Jojoba Oil is a light and delicate oil. It is unscented and comes in an amber glass bottle, which protects against pollutants and oxidation from light. Best of all, it is 100% Organic. This is a rather dry oil, and it doesn't leave a greasy or oily residue. I wanted to try it in different situations to see how it worked for me. I added a few drops to my conditioner after shampooing and it left my hair soft and manageable. I rubbed it into my nails and cuticles. After cleansing I used it on my face. It removed the last bit of my makeup and absorbed readily into my skin. It showed immediate hydration and smoothed fine lines and wrinkles. I also used this to make a whipped body butter:
2 oz room temperature Raw Shea Butter, mashed, then add
1 T. Leven Rose Organic Jojoba Oil, mash again, then add
10 drops of Essential Oil, stir rapidly until it is all incorporated and forms a soft, whipped butter consistency. Use a small amount daily to revive dry skin. I made this for a friend who was recovering from surgery and rubbed it into her skin and it helped to rehydrate the skin and stop flaking and itching. She also said she planned to use it for her eczema patches.

Overall, I was impressed with this Jojoba Oil. It benefits hair, face, and skin all over. I love that it is Organic and unscented. It blends well with other ingredients to form body butters, hair conditioners, dry oils, and skin creams. I definitely recommend Leven Rose Organic Jojoba Oil for a quality product with many benefits.

IGNITE Garcinia Cambogia Kickstarts the New You

Garcinia Cambogia is described as an appetite suppressant that also burns fat, and increases metabolism. Serotonin levels are also increased which often works to make people feel less hungry. Garcinia Cambogia is an extract from the rind of the tamarind fruit and the active ingredient of this is hydroxycitric acid (HCA). This is a product that has gained attention after a famous television doctor implied it was a wonder pill for weight loss. This product, IGNITE, by Opti Nutrients contains 60% HCA. This is pure and natural, with no GMOs. It also contains a blended formula of ingredients to support the fat burning hormone, Leptin and Potassium Chloride to support and increase the absorption. You take 1-2 capsules 30 minutes before a meal (assuming 3 meals a day).

So the big question is, does this work? I found that when I was taking IGNITE with a full glass of water my appetite was indeed reduced. I was able to eat smaller portions and feel just as full. I didn't have late night hunger attacks and my cravings were also reduced. I had no side effects and felt a slight improvement in my activity level and mood. The more moving around I did, the more calories I burned and I did lose several pounds while taking this product. Sometimes it is necessary to kickstart the activity level from couch-potato to moderate-mover. In a country plagued by obesity, we need to re-examine our motivations for eating and rein in our over- or unnecessary eating. This is a product that can help. Overall, I was satisfied with the results. While I can't guarantee that anyone else will have the same results as I had, the product helped me keep my appetite down and my activity up.
