Beauty



As I get older, I'm more concerned about my skin, fine lines and wrinkles...not to mention the noticeable puffy eyes and bags I've come to inherit from age. This page has some of my favorite facial and beauty products that I have tried and truly love.






COLORFUL FUN BATH THAT NOURISHES YOUR SKIN - TRONCO 5 PIECE BATH BOMBS SET





Oh, how I love my bath!  I am usually half and half when it comes to bath time; half the time I take a shower and the other half, a bath.  But sometimes my bath time just isn't so relaxing, or fun, or even enjoyable.  I'm in such a rush to get it done and get out.  Maybe it's because I had no reason to stay in the bath...I mean, after all, it's just plain water!

Ever since I came upon Tronco's 5 piece bath bomb set, sold by Belanko, I've started to enjoy my baths more and more...spending a little more time in it.  This 5 piece bath bombs set is handmade with natural ingredients, such as: Sea Salt, Mentha Arvensis Oil and more.  The colors are vibrant, fun and the scent...wonderful!  


bath

These little gems come in their own colored see through bag and are packaged and shipped in this cute gift box, making it perfect for gift giving.  Most bath bombs are around the size of 2 - 2.5 oz each, but these are each a generous 4 oz size, allowing you more fizz for your bath and more nourishing oils to better your skin.



This set come in 5 different colors and fragrances: Euphoria Freesia, Clarity Peppermint, Balance Rose, Vitamin C Lemon and Vigor Lavender. I love how cute the packaging is and how neatly the box was, when unpacked.  The box comes with a little card and envelope as well as instructions on how to use the bath bombs.



If you haven't tried bath bombs yet, you don't know what you are missing.  I was one that never used bath bombs, heard about them, but never took the opportunity to use them.  Bath salts - yes, but not these fun little gems.  After my first time using them, I was hooked.  I just love a fun, colorful bath that allows me not only to enjoy the nourishing effect it has on my skin, but the fun colors that it gives my bath water.

TEETH WHITENING FOR SENSITIVE TEETH






teeth whitening kit

If you're like me, you love your wine, coffee and tea.  I can't tell you how much of a wine and coffee lover I am, but my teeth sure can!  Everyone knows, that when you consume enough of these products, your teeth begin to show it.  I have always hated the way my teeth looked, not only because they are not perfect and straight, but they were not as white as everyone else's!  I will admit, I didn't brush them as often as I should have, especially after drinking wine and coffee.



I have tried whitening toothpastes, baking soda and peroxide...you name it. Recently, I was asked to try Smile Brilliant.  Smile Brilliant is a teeth whitening kit that is said to give you a brighter and whiter smile after 7-14 days.  I'm thinking...okay, I will try it, but I'm not going to expect too much from it.  Boy, was I proven wrong!

I am so glad that I tried Smile Brilliant! After just 7 days, I began seeing signs of improvement in my teeth and withing 14 days; they looked as they did 10 years ago...whiter!  I will admit, there were steps I had to go through that I didn't know if I could commit to, but I did it.  I was so impressed with the results, that I've included before and after pictures, below.  As you can see, my teeth are not perfect.  They are not straight, but after whitening my teeth, they do not look nearly as bad as they did.





Smile Brilliant has everything you need to get your teeth back to their whiteness.  Smile Brilliant uses custom fitted trays, that ensures that every angle and every part of your teeth (whether they are straight or not) receives even and consistent coverage.  There is a white and blue putty like mixture that you blend together for a certain amount of time, where it is placed inside a blue mold and you insert in your mouth, making sure every part of your teeth and even up to your gums, is covered.  After leaving in for approximately 3 minutes, you remove the tray and repeat with the bottom teeth. It was that simple.  You then let them rest, rinse with cool water and send them off to Smile Brilliant for them to create your very own trays.

Once you receive your trays, you will begin whitening and desensitizing your teeth.  This is best when done in the evening time, right before going to bed, to ensure that you will not be drinking or eating anything after about 2 hours after whitening.

Did you know that most dentists charge $500 or more for the same procedure?  Smile Brilliant is 70% less and 5 times faster when it comes to whitening your teeth and I'm proof that it works!  I can't thank Smile Brilliant enough for contacting me and allowing me to try their whitening kit.  I can now smile with more confidence, without worrying about how dingy my teeth looks!

This Cocoa Butter shown here, available at TWAA Naturals Etsy Shop, has just that.  It is 100% Cocoa Butter with the addition of Vitamin E and Aloe.  Vitamin E is great for reducing wrinkles and fine lines and is a great antioxidant.

NATURE'S LOVING TOUCH ALL NATURAL BODY SPRAY

Two of my favorite scents of all time, when it comes to body sprays, candles and beauty products, are Grapefruit and Lavender.  I love both of these scents, whether they are single scents or combined.  Lavender is great for calming the senses and can be relaxing.  Grapefruit, well, it just seems to uplift my spirits and every time I get a whiff of grapefruit, it makes me happy!

ORGANIC BODY SOLUTIONS DEFINE BODY SPRAY


This fragrance spray for men is the "Define" body spray.  It's available at OrganicBodySolutions Etsy Shop and is the version of Drakkar. This duplication is very close to the original.  OrganicBodySolutions uses fragrance oils instead of essential oils in their body sprays.  Essential oils are known to have therapeutic properties that can help relieve particular conditions or problems.  Fragrance oils are just that, for created manufactured scents. 










AWAKEN HAWAIIAN PLUMERIA BODY SPRAY

This Awaken Hawaiian Plumeria comes in a 1 oz. spray bottle or roll on.  Both are the perfect size to carry in your purse, anywhere.  I wish you could smell this Hawaiian Plumeria! It's smells so good and I can still smell the scent, an hour later.  But that doesn't matter, because if you're like me...you're probably going to spray, throughout the day!

Awaken Shop Goods has items ranging from crochet bags, blankets, jewelry, body sprays and more.  They are more known for their popular incense burners and have gotten rave reviews.  Awaken's incense burners are hand dipped into a variety of oils that will fill your home with a great aroma. Most incense burners only last 25-30 minutes....Awaken's last 45-50 minutes due to the DPG (Diprophyene).  Go check out AwakenShopGoods Etsy Shop for this body spray and others.







COTTON CANDY SUGAR BODY SCRUB


Let me tell you...I don't know if I've ever smelled a body scrub as scrumptious as this one! It's the Cotton Candy Sugar Body Scrub by Sweet N Salty Bath Shop on Etsy.  

Once I unscrewed the lid and yanked off the protective paper sealer, OMGosh... you would have thought I discovered an addictive drug!  I kid you not...this stuff smells wonderful!  It has a light blue color to it and consists of: Cane Sugar, Almond Oil, Vitamin E, Coconut Oil, Fragrance Oil and Skin Safe Cosmetic Glitter.  I am totally in love with the whole packaging.  The container is a clear container that has black labels with the Etsy Shop's name as well as a label listing the ingredients.






ORGANIC BEAUTY'S BABY CAKES MINERAL BLUSH

Mineral makeup just seems to last a lot longer, which means, you get more for your money.  My Organic Beauty Etsy Shop has this beautiful soft pink rose blush, that is organic, vegan and a shimmering pink color.  Like any other mineral makeup I've tried, it doesn't take much at all to get the right amount of color.

SILBA BODY AND SKIN CARE ALOE VERA & LEMONGRASS BODY SPRAY

Silba Body and Skin Care has this wonderful smelling body spray that consist of both aloe vera gel and Lemongrass.  I've always loved the Lemongrass scent, whether it's in a soap, lotion or body spray.  Silba Body and Skin Care offers this Aloe Vera Gel with Lemongrass Body Spray in a 2 oz. bottle, that combines aloe vera gel, Vitamin E, Distilled Water, Lemongrass oil and Vegetable Glycerin. 


With all these ingredients, it helps to not only soothes the skin, but hydrates it as well.  This spray is great for bug bites, itchiness and even as a bug repellant (I may try this when the mosquitoes come out this summer!)  















THE SALVY BLOSSOM BODY SPRAYS

Did you know, that there are many Etsy sellers that make their own body sprays/spritzers?  I was curious as to how these smelled compared to the ones I buy in the store.  Let me tell you, the ones I've tried from Etsy smell just as wonderful, if not better!  One of the scents I've tried, was the Peppermint Lavender by The Salvy Blossom Etsy Shop.





You can definitely smell the peppermint and a hint of lavender in this body spray.  The peppermint scent is known to help uplift your mood and is great if you have a cold.  Lavender scent is known to help relax and calm you. Put both these scents together and you have an invigorating clean scent that just makes me happy!  It's not over powering, but I can definitely smell this body spray, once sprayed.












THE BEACH WITCH SEA SALT & FLOWERS COLLECTION BODY SPRAY

This Sea Salt & Flowers Sea Grass- Flowers Spray smells awesome!  I love the scent and it is a scent that I normally go for!  It has a soft & captivating scent of sea grass & flowers, which include a fusion of Fresh Sea Grass, Night Jasmine, Beach Flowers, Sea Salt and other ethereal ingredients.

FORAGED FIELDS MINERAL BRONZER

April, over at Foraged Fields, has a line of organic and natural makeup, that is plant based.  Just yesterday, I used April's Foraged Fields clay based bronzer....and I ain't gonna lie...I loved it!  I actually used the bronzer as a blush and I've had several compliments on how good my makeup looked.

This Foraged Fields bronzer went on so smooth and silky, and it did not take much at all, to give me the blush coverage I needed.  When I first saw the bronzer (I knew I was going to use it as blush), I was wondering, "How is this going to look like blush?  It's brown, almost a clay, dirt like color.)  Well folks, that thought was put aside, as when I applied it, it worked wonders as a blush!














NEFERTITI COSMETICS EXTREME GLITTER LIP GLOSS

The lip gloss shown here, is by Nefertiti Cosmetics Etsy Shop.  It has TONS of glitter power and there are so many colors to choose from.  The possibilities are endless and I found it so much fun to test out each one!  They are fun, small and convenient to carry with you, while on the go and they make a statement.

Shimmering, glittering and so very smooth and moisturizing.  That is what this GLAM BUTTER is all about!  I love the scent of the frankincense and myrrh in this glam body butter.  Oh....and did I mention, it sparkles!  I love a body butter or lotion that just glistens on your skin, making for a fun day or evening, when wearing a that summer top!




This GLAM BUTTER is available at RedLipsStudio Etsy Shop and it's available in a 2 oz and 4 oz. 








JUNE BUG SOAP CO MOISTURIZING CREAM

This 8 oz. Moisturizing Skin Cream that is shown here, was created by June Bug Soap Co on Etsy.  It is a very generous size jar and the best thing is, you get to choose what scent you want added.  I chose Grapefruit, as there is just something about that scent I love.  I love it in candles, as well as bath and body products.

LAVO MICRODERMABRASION CREAM


I'm a big fan of exfoliating my skin.  I haven't really exfoliated my face until here recently and I must tell you, I wouldn't go without it!  I love how my skin feels and looks after exfoliating, especially with LAVO's Microdermabrasion Cream. 


This cream is a pale yellow in color and contains tiny 'grains' of aluminum dioxide crystals, that are ultra fine, that buffs away dry skin and smooths pores and wrinkles.  I absolutely love this microdermabrasion cream by LAVO!  I'm not sure if it's due to the buffing of my skin, but my face has an almost luminous look to it after I've exfoliated.


The cream is creamy, yet slightly grainy at the same time.  It is perfect for most skin types, except for those with sensitive skin and those with problem skin, such as rosacea, open sores, etc.  It does not burn nor irritate my skin and that's one thing I love about this product.  This is the same quality of cream that is used by professional salons and spas, and I can see why!

The LAVO Microdermabrasion Cream contains ingredients such as: aloe vera, sea algae, chamomile, calendula, vitamins A & E, fruit enzymes derived from pineapple and papaya, which break down dead skin cells to reveal a more youthful and brighter skin.  Maybe that is why I think this cream leaves my skin looking luminous.







ANAITI ADVANCE AGE DEFYING SERUM

Here is another product, by Anaiti, that is such a great product for your skin.  Anaiti's Advanced Age Defying Serum is a facial moisturizer that acts as an anti-aging serum for your face and neck.  Although the bottle says, For Celebrity Skin, it's not just for celebrities.


I actually use this, not only on my face, but also on my neck.  After being in the tanning bed and being out in the sun, during vacation, it's very crucial to keep my neck looking the best I can, while I age.  This serum is very smooth going on and leaves my face feeling soft.  When combined with Anaiti Instant Wrinkle Smoothing Serum, this duo makes an awesome pair, for your skin.

KORRES VOLCANIC MINERAL MASCARA

If it's one thing I can't do without when it comes to makeup, it's mascara and foundation. Ok, that was two, but anyway, I have to have some type of definition to my eyes.  Without mascara or eyeshadow, my eyes just get lost in my face...literally.  I have small eyes and I need something that is going to make them 'pop'.


Thanks to Net Market on Ebay, they were kind enough to send me a sample of their Korres Volcanic Mineral Mascara.  This mascara is a little different than most, but goes on the same and feels the same as the rest.  The first thing about the Korres Volcanic Mineral Mascara I noticed, was how Black the mascara was.  I love black mascara and it's the only color I use, but this IS really a dark black mascara. Maybe it's because it is derived from volcanic soil...that's right...If you didn't notice the name, this mascara is actually derived from volcanic soil and is also a mineral based mascara.


Does the above raise your interest?  If not, how about this.  It increases lash volume by 600%!  The Korres Volcanic Mineral Mascara goes on smooth, covering every lash and provides a glossy, luminous finish.  It is long wearing, without all that mascara flaking and holds strong, with a flexible feel.

If you are looking for a volume-izing mascara, that gives you 600% lash volume and leaves your lashes looking their best, you need to check out Net Market's Ebay site and grab yours today.  

I've tried this mascara and really like it.  The tube is very unique looking, different than I've ever seen.  The brush is made to where the mascara will not clump and divides my lashes evenly.  It truly is a very black mascara and I love it.

MATRIX BIOLAGE CONDITIONER

I have very dry and coarse hair, therefore, I ALWAYS have to condition my hair.  Now, with that being said, I don't wash my hair everyday because I have dry hair and that can become frizzy.  If I ever forget to condition my hair, I might as well rewash and do it all over again because my hair is not 'fixable' unless it has that soft feel to it.


I was thrilled to have the opportunity, to try the Matrix Biolage Cleansing Conditioner for Coarse Hair. I've seen this in many salons and even had it used on my hair before.  I love the generous sized bottle I received, 16.9 oz and better yet, I love the dispense top.  I hate having to either unscrew the top or try to open the flip top of a conditioner when my hands are wet. All I have to do is give this baby a few pumps and I'm done!  No worries about putting the lid back on or closing the top!

This Matrix Biolage Cleansing Conditioner for Coarse Hair is non-stripping, contains no harsh salts and no parabens.  It's recommended to use 6-8 pumps, depending on hair length and to leave in for at least 5 minutes...to give it time to nourish and condition your hair and then rinse thoroughly.

I absolutely love this conditioners!  It's one of the best I've used so far.  I normally blow dry my hair after washing and conditioning, but decided to leave it up in a towel and then let it air dry the rest of the way while I was sleeping.  The next morning, I had the softest hair ever and even through out the day, my hair still felt soft.  I always trust a conditioner, or a shampoo, when it's advertised and used in a salon.  

The Matrix Biolage Cleansing Conditioner gently lifts impurities from the hair, leaving your hair manageable, while at the same time, deeply nourishes and controls frizz by smoothing cuticle texture.  You won't find any heavy Silicones in this product.

The best part of this Matrix Biolage Cleansing Conditioner for Coarse Hair, is that for the price of ONE BOTTLE, that you would normally pay at a salon or online retail store, you actually receive TWO BOTTLES with the seller of this Conditioner on Ebay.  I've priced individual bottles of this conditioner and they run anywhere between $19.50 - $26.00 a bottle.  Net Market Store on Ebay, is offering TWO bottles for only $27.00.  I call that an AMAZING deal!

It also comes with a dropper, to make it easier to dispense the lemon essential oil sparingly.

FACES BEAUTIFUL BRUSH ON LIQUID MINERAL MAKEUP

I love makeup!  And I especially love a foundation, that I find, that gives me a flawless look, a total finish and doesn't look caked on or bring attention to my fine lines around my eyes.  I'm always looking for that perfect foundation.  To me, a perfect foundation sets the grounds for the rest of your makeup to look perfect and well blended.


Faces Beautiful has a brush on liquid makeup, that is mineral based and goes on with a squeeze of the tube.  I will admit, this is the first I've seen a foundation, that you just brush on.  I was kind of leery at first, when I seen how this liquid mineral foundation was applied.  At first I thought...This is not going to go on and blend smoothly.  Boy was I wrong!  I loved how easy it was to apply and even more, how well it blended!


Yes, at first, I may have squeezed a little too much onto the brush, but then I found, that was easily solved.  All I had to do, was brush the foundation all over my face, until well blended and then took the extra and applied it to where I needed more.  The makeup was a perfect color and tone to my skin, as I have light to medium skin, so I ended up with the Radiant Beige.  What I also love about this makeup, it was neither too greasy, oily or thick.  It was the perfect consistency, for me.


The tube has an On/Off cap.  When you want to apply the liquid mineral makeup to the brush, turn the cap to On.  When you have dispensed the right amount of makeup, then turn the cap to Off.  This will prevent any extra from coming out of the tube.  The brush part of the foundation does not need to be cleaned or washed.  There's no need in using your fingers or a sponge to smooth the foundation out, as this is all taken care of by the brush.

To me, this is pretty close, if not better, than the Cover Girl BB Tinted Moisturizer I am using now.  I love this stuff!  And the makeup stays on all day!  Faces Beautiful Brush On Liquid Mineral Makeup gives you that flawless look, is water-proof and improves the texture of your skin.  They have three color tones you can choose from.  Radiant Beige for Sallow Skin, Healthy Nude for skin with a little pink in their skin and Sun Glow for those who are very tan, Indian or Hispanic.

You can purchase your Faces Beautiful Brush On Liquid Mineral Makeup, HERE.  I can honestly say, this is one of the best foundations I've used in a long time!








SKINNY TEATOX


Lately, I've been a little on the sluggish side, not too bad, but not enough energy like I used to have several years ago.  Blame it on age, blame it on getting on blood pressure meds, or just plain, not being active.

After using the Skinny Teatox for about a week, I've noticed a difference in my energy levels. I'm not saying my energy level is through the roof, but I have had a little more energy than before.  I really love the name...Skinny Teatox.  It's very catching and the label on this product is very appealing.  

I received a 14 day supply of both the Morning Skinny Teatox and the Night time Skinny Teatox.  The Morning Teatox can be taken every morning, in place of your morning coffee or just as an extra drink.  This Morning Skinny Teatox contains caffeine and will give you the energy needed and help aid in weight loss as well as increase your metabolism,  if followed by a proper diet and exercise.

The Night time Skinny Teatox is for the evening time or right before bed.  This teatox does NOT contain caffeine, but will act as a detox for your body.  Keep in mind, you will probably have to get up and go to the bathroom after 4-8 hours after drinking it.  This teatox is to help eliminate and rid your body of waste and will cause bowel movements.  It's recommended to take the Night time teatox every other night.

Both Morning and Nighttime teatox comes in a sealed package.  The Morning teatox is loose tea leaves.  1 tsp is placed in the cute little strawberry tea strainer, to let steep for at least 2-4 minutes.  The Nighttime teatox comes in a form of a tea bag and only 1 bag per cup.

BIOQUE CLEANSER AND REFINISHER

I can't tell you the last time I've used a facial cleanser to clean my face.  What I have normally used were, facial makeup remover cloths, facial cleansing soaps and yes...even oil!  That's why I was so excited to get to try the Bioque Cleanser and Bioque Refinisher!  

First of all, the Bioque Facial Cleanser smells amazing!  It's not a loud or over powering scent, but it's almost like a citrus scent...very pleasant.  What I've also found out, is that it doesn't take much of the cleanser, especially if you use a facial spin brush to clean your face, as I do.



The Bioque Refinisher is also another awesome product.  Once you  have cleansed your skin, the Bioque Refinisher is then used.  This product contains little granules that exfoliates your skin.  After using this refinisher, my face looked and felt so smooth!!!  You could tell the dry, dead skin cells were gone.  

The Bioque Refinsher contains Yucca, that gently cleanses and purifies the skin, without  contaminants, while also helping with acne prone skin.  The Bioque Cleanser gently cleans and foams away the dirt and grime from your face and can be used daily.  Both products contain this amazing citrus smell, which I love!

Directions for Skin Cleanser: 
Use before applying serums, creams, moisturizers and make-up and at the end of the day to remove all traces of grime. Rinse face with lukewarm water. Place a pea-sized amount in palm, lightly rub hands together and smooth over face in gentle circular motions--starting from the bottom and moving upward. Rinse and pat dry.

Directions for Skin Refinisher: 
Use after the cleanser.  Using small amount in palms of hands, massage with slight pressure over entire face area for several minutes.  You will feel a minor abrasive exfoliating agent working against your skin.  Rinse vigorously, until skin is smooth and no grit remains.  Your skin should be refinished in this manner at least two or three times a week to remove dead graying skin cells so that your newest and brightest outer skin cells are revealed.

You can try both of these products by visiting the Official Site for Bioque Skin.








AMARA ORGANICS RETINOL SERUM

Amara Organics has been one of my favorite brands I've used.  They offer many beauty skin products and this Retinol Serum is one of them.  The Retinol serum does not leave my skin feeling oily, greasy or dry.

You've probably heard a lot about Retinol.  That's because, it's the #1 dermatologist-recommended anti-aging ingredient.  Retinol has been proven to help with anti-aging, such as improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving you with a more firmer, smoother, wrinkle free skin.



I don't know about you, but this all sounds good to me and anything with Retinol, I'm all game for!  What you may not know, is that Retinol is an extremely effective treatment for acne.  Not only is Amara Organics Retinol Serum great for reversing the signs of aging, but it can also help with acne issues.

 Amara Organics Retinol Serum Provides The Best Results:

  • -Repairs skin on a molecular level to erase fine lines and wrinkles
    -Stimulates collagen for firmer, smoother skin
    -Speeds up skin cell turnover to fade brown spots, discoloration, and acne scars
    -Improves texture and tone for a smoother, softer, more radiant complexion
    -Unclogs pores to clear up acne and prevent future breakouts
 What I love about this product....no animal testing!  

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Apply a small amount of serum with fingertips to entire face, neck, and décolletage after cleansing and toning. Allow to dry. Follow with a moisturizer. Apply at night and use sunscreen daily as retinol increases sun sensitivity. For first time users, apply every other night for first few weeks until skin adjusts.

EXFOLIMATE

I tried the Exfolimate for the first time, a couple days ago.  At first, I wasn't sure how these little tools cold exfoliate, as I was used to a SCRUB to exfoliate my skin.  These tools looked so simple, and was hesitant to believe these could actually exfoliate my skin.


After the first use, I did find out, that these tools DO WORK!  It doesn't take much pressure, hardly any at all, and you actually go over your face and body with these tools, at a 90 degree angle.

These white Exfolimate tools has a little groove embedded in them.  I found this made it easier to hold, grip and control the Exfolimate.  The Exfolimate also comes with a long cord, to insert into the tiny hole near the top of the tool and to hang in your shower.  I personally, do not use the cord, as I keep these little gems near my bathroom sink, to when I get ready to exfoliate my skin before applying facial products and makeup.

Skin care professionals suggest that you should first exfoliate your skin before applying any facial products for a more effective result.  Exfoliation stimulates the skins. natural ability to renew and repair itself by removing any dead skin cells to reveal newer and fresher skin.  

With the use of Exfolimate, you no longer have to mess with any scrubs or loofahs.  Exfolimate gently releases dirt and oil embedded beneath your skin's surface and gives you a more deep cleanse that can improve your tone and texture, while reducing pore size, oily patches, dry areas and visible signs of aging.  All it takes is about a minute or two a day to exfoliate with Exfolimate.

Exfolimate comes with two tools, the smaller one for the face and a larger one for your body. 
These tools are perfect and safe for all skin types.  If you would like to experience what these Exfolimates can do for you, you need to head on over to their Amazon page and order your's today.  I can honestly say, I use these every morning and LOVE them!

FOXBRIM'S NATURAL HAND AND BODY SOAP

Having hand soap nearby is very important and convenient, especially when working in the kitchen.  I am constantly washing my hands while I cook, mainly, because I always have flour, oil, batter or had touched chicken with my hands.  You could say I'm a messy cook, but I try to clean up as I go along, not after cooking is done.

Foxbrim's Natural Hand and Body Soap is currently sitting on my kitchen sink.  I love the pump bottle, as it makes it very easy to dispense soap into my hands instead of having to open a bottle or grabbing the Dawn from underneath the sink.

Foxbrim's Natural Hand and Body Soap comes in a dark, 8oz bottle and has a dispense pump.  The yellow label on the bottle makes it very noticeable, especially if you are the type of person who wants to store in underneath the sink once you're done in the kitchen (I used to do this all the time, but found it easier to just leave it out.)



It doesn't take much of the soap to clean your hands.  I barely pushed down on the pump and got a dime size, which is plenty. The soap is so silky and smooth and cleans really well.  I didn't notice any scent to the soap, but this soap is 100% natural and 98% organic, making it the perfect hand and body soap without all the additives.

VIRGIN ARGAN OIL

The Virgin Argan Oil, by North Coast Products, is one of the first bottles of Argan Oil I've received that comes in a generous 4 oz bottle.   I'm so thrilled about this, because the 2.7 oz bottle that I currently have, has lasted me around 3 months and it's still over halfway full!  I know this bottle will last twice as long, if not longer.



The first thing I noticed about this Virgin Argan Oil, is that it's in a very dark bottle with a dark label...very nice labeling.  The second thing I've noticed, it that instead of a dropper, it has a pump spray...very different than what I'm used to, but good.

Argan Oil has become popular lately, due to it's moisturizing benefits for hair, nails, skin and face.  I use the Argan Oil, nearly everyday for my face, as I love the glow it gives to my skin, especially when I've applied makeup and the makeup tends to hide the natural glow of my face.

The North Coast Product, Virgin Argan Oil, is shipped from Morocco, cold pressed and is certified organic.  If you have brittle nails, this Argan oil can be your solution.  If you have dry brittle hair, adding a few drops to damp hair can give it some moisture and give your hair that shiny look.  

The Virgin Argan Oil is not greasy nor oily and absorbs into the skin quickly. This Argan Oil has no added fragrance, no added color and has not added preservatives or chemicals.  The Virgin Argan Oil is perfect for everyone, even those with sensitive skin.  And one more thing...this Argan Oil is not just for women, but men can use it too.  Men, you can use it as a conditioner for your beard as well as a moisturizer for your dry hands and nails.

BEAUTY ADDICTS RELATIONS LIP GLOSS

I recently was offered to try and review Beauty Addicts Relations Lips Lip Gloss Quad.  The lip gloss comes in four shades in one compact, which compliments each other.  There are four (4) different quad compacts: Express, Glow, Motivate and Seduce.  I received the Express Quad and absolutely love the colors!  These colors of the Express are ones I normally lean towards and wear, when it comes to lip gloss or color.




The Relations Lip Lip gloss retails for $30.00 at Beauty Addicts website.  
The lip glosses are made with Shea Butter, Aloe Vera and Vitamin E, which not only hydrates your lips, but protect them and give you a long wearing, soft creamy color.  

The Beauty Addicts Relations Lip Lip Gloss Quad comes in a purse size compact with a mirror for those easy touch ups while on the go.  The lip gloss covers my lips completely and hardly needs reapplied during the day.

TEADORA NOURISHING BODY CREAM

I had the opportunity to try Teodora Beauty products, not once, but twice.  The first was the Teodora body scrub and now, the Teodora Nourishing Body Cream.  The Teodora Nourishing Body Cream is the same scent as that of the Teodora Body Scrub...Rainforest at Dusk.

The Teodora Nourishing Body Cream, Rainforest at Dusk, has an amazing smell!  It's different than any lotion I've tried, scent wise, and leaves your hands and body, silky smooth.  The Rainforest at Dusk as a calming and relaxing scent that you just can't help fall in love with.  It has a Flowery, smooth aroma with a hint of fruit that soothes and revitalizes your senses after a long hard day.  If I could take a bath in this stuff, I would!

The best thing about Teodora's products...they dedicate part of the proceeds of their products to help fund a program the company has trademarked as "Earth for you. You for Earth."  Funding a philanthropic exchange between the U.S. and Brazil to support youth education, leadership development, health, and rainforest conservation.

With all of these great things about Teodora, I'm very proud to have had the opportunity to not only try, test and review their products, but to know that I'm using a product that is dedicated to help with amazing things for the future!

VALENCIA EVEN GLOW SERUM WITH VITAMIN C

What gal doesn't want even skin tone, smaller pores and a brighter overall appearance?  I know I do and that was exactly what I got when I used the Even Glow Serum by Valentia.  When I first opened my bottle of this Glow Serum, I was instantly met with a very pleasant citrus orange scent.  The scent was so pleasant and invigorating that I couldn't get over how nice this serum smelled.



The serum has is slightly thick, like most natural serums are and it had a light orange tint to it, although, it does not go on your face orange, or with any color, at all.  I instantly noticed the tightening of my face after the serum dried.  This serum does not leave a sticky, greasy feeling and it instantly gave my complexion a little glow.

TEADORA NOURISHING BODY POLISH

I can say, that I've never used anything besides soap or body wash when taking a bath or shower.  I usually tend to stay away from soap, as I don't like the drying effects from it. That is why I was happy that I was chosen to try out Teadora Nourishing Body Polish by Teadora Beauty.

Teadora Body Polish comes in two different scents...Rainforest at Dawn and Rainforest at Dusk. 
 Rainforest at Dawn


Rainforest at Dawn has an earthy, bright and sparkly citrusy burst of lemon and bergamont, mixed with fresh florals, basil, woods and eucalyptus...perfect for waking up in the morning.

Rainforest at Dusk has a smooth floral scent that is sexy and has hints of Rose Absolute and Geranium blend, with a little orange and coconut to relax and sooth you after a long day at work.  This is perfect for unwinding at night and gives you a relaxing twilight in the forest.


Rainforest at Dusk


Here are a few suggestions, by Teodora, for using this body polish:

 • We recommend you use the polish no more than two to three times a week to get rid of dead skin, ingrowns, or imperfections without over-exfoliating.
• For stronger exfoliation, rub two to three squirts of polish in the area you want to exfoliate prior to turning on the water.
• Leave it on your skin for a minute or two while you focus on other areas of your body.
• Turn on the shower and rinse if off.
• Repeat with water running for more sensitive areas.


You can also use this, just like a body wash.  The scent that I had chosen, Rainforest at Dusk, has a very inviting and mellow scent, that has a subtle relaxing note to it.  It left my skin feeling soft and removed any dry skin I may had have.  

The body polish has Acai' seeds and Amazonian White Clay, which are two ingredients that help remove dry skin and give your skin that polished look.  I suggest if you want glowing healthy looking skin, you MUST try these Teodora Nourishing Body Polishes!  They have a wonderful smell and give great results.  It's like having your own home spa treatment! 

You can find out more about Teodora and their beauty products at: Teodora Beauty.
You can also find this Nourishing Body Scrub at: Amazon-Rainforest at Dawn and Amazon-Rainforest at Dusk. Each tube is 6 oz. and range from $31.75  to $34.00 on Amazon.
