I love anything that is Anti-Aging. As I get older, I notice more fine lines, puffy and tired eyes and a less-glowing look to my face. I got the pleasure to try the La Deesa 20% Vitamin C Anti-Aging Elixir, and although I've only been using it for almost a week, I love the instant toning and tightening this amazing Elixir gives to my face. Not only that, but the healthy glow I have, even under makeup, makes me happy!
The La Deesa 20% Vitamin C Anti-Aging Elixir has these following claims:
* Help fight and protect your skin against Oxidative damage
* Healing and protecting against sun damage to over exposure to sun (Vitamin C benefit)
* Diminish fine lines
* Diminish wrinkles
* Diminish dark spots
* Increases your skin's rate of cellular renewal
* Visibly plumping and firming your skin (I have already witnessed this!)
* Fade age spots
* Improve discoloration
All of these benefits from using the La Deesa 20% Vitamin C Anti-Aging Elixir is enough reasons to try this amazing product. After continued use, you will start to see the minimizing of fine lines and wrinkles. I plan on using this product until it's gone and hope to come back with the results.
The Anti-Aging Elixir also has 11% Hyaluronic Acid, Advance Amino Complex, Organic Aloe and is 72% Organic. I already love the way it makes my face feel and look. I love the healthy glow I get from using it and the tightening feeling I instantly feel.

Busy Weekend
As Christmas is nearing, now is the time when all the Christmas parties, decorating and shopping pop up. This weekend, I have a work Christmas party that I will attend, 45 minutes away. These parties are always so fun and fun packed to attend. Dinner and Social hour, awards and then dancing afterwards always makes for a fun Saturday.
BUT....before I go on this Christmas party adventure, I must get another one of my DIY Christmas swags done. I just went to my Dollar Tree yesterday and purchased one roll of green garland, several sprays in red and gold and some red ribbon. My plan is to make a decorative garland swag above one of my doorways. Of course, I will rely on Pinterest to help me!
All in all, I spent around $8.00 for a bag full of items to do my swag. Not too bad. I hope to post a picture when it's all done. Just last week, I went to the same Dollar Tree and purchase the same amount, but an additional green garland, to make a long fireplace garland. I had a bag of pine cones, different sizes, that I brought back with me from Florida this year. I weaved in some white lights, added the pine cones, here and there and added some red holly berries. PRETTIFUL! I was so pleased by the outcome!
I will admit, it takes me awhile to get into the Christmas spirit, but as the holiday nears, I am getting more excited. I love to decorate, mostly DIY projects, and add more each year. Christmas dinner is also a big thing. This year, instead of going to my family's home, I will be doing Christmas dinner at my house, welcoming any family member who usually stops by for a plate.
Christmas dinner will consist of: Ham with Pineapple, garlic mashed potatoes, deviled eggs, chocolate pie, pecan pie (maybe) and several fixins I may come up with.
What are your plans for the holidays?
WISHING EVERYONE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Konjac Sponge infused with French Green Clay review
The teardrop shaped Konjac Sponge makes it so easy to get around the eye area, as well as the nose, and leaves my skin feeling so soft and looking like it had just been buffed. The Konjac Sponge infused with French Green Clay, by Oleavine, is 100% natural, biodegradable and Eco-Friendly. This sponge gently exfoliates (which explains the clean, glowing look of my face after I used it), cleanses and contains no harsh chemicals and is naturally pH balanced.
The directions states, that you do not need to use any facial cleansers with this sponge, and it's true. The sponge is so soft, that it's gently enough for a baby. I couldn't believe how soft and gentle it was...it was like it was infused with it's own moisturizer, which it isn't, but it left my face feeling and looking so clean.
The 100% plant based Konjac Sponge infused with French Green Clay is perfect for sensitive skin as well as tackling those blackheads and breakouts. The directions on using this sponge are: let it soak in warm water until it's fully saturated. DO NOT WRING out, but gently squeeze between your palms and then cleanse your face. Once you are done, squeeze any access water from the sponge and hang to dry in your shower, by the string/cord that is attached to it. THAT'S IT!
I would definitely recommend this Konjac Sponge for your every day beauty regimen. I can't wait to use it again, tonight!

Today's Frugal Tip
I had decided that it was time to take care of my squeaky back door once and for all! That back door of mine has squeaked and made a very noticeable sound for about a year now, and I couldn't take it any longer!
I kept thinking about buying some WD40, but didn't know how much that would cost and didn't want to buy something that was going to cost me more than finding something that would solve that problem, cheaper.
Low and behold...I got to thinking! If WD40 is a lubricant and it coats door hinges and stops the squeaky noise...couldn't oil do the same thing? I mean, oil is a lubricant and I always have cooking oil on hand, so I decided, why not, it couldn't hurt.
What I did, was poured a little oil in the cooking oil cap and dabbed my fingers in the oil and applied it to my door hinges. Just to make sure I had it well coated, I carefully poured the remaining oil, from the cap, onto each hinge. I WAS AMAZED! Yes, I don't get excited over very many things, but I was so proud and surprised this little trick worked! Who needs WD40 when you have cooking oil on hand?
Then I got to thinking...maybe this won't last long, maybe this will last for a day...maybe two days. NOPE! It is going on a week and two days and still, no squeaky doors! The only thing is now...I can't hear anyone coming in the back door.
WHAT FRUGAL TIP DO YOU HAVE TO SHARE? I WANT TO HEAR THEM.

Colon Cleanse Review
Hera Prime Colon Cleanse capsules claims to do the following:
*Promote Digestive Health
*Promote Weight Loss
*Boosts Energy
*Eliminate Toxins Naturally
The directions states to take two capsules in the morning, with your first meal. If your body can tolerate it and you have no problems what so ever, take another two capsules in the evening, with your evening meal. I've done this for about a week to a week and half and as much as I hate to say this, I couldn't really tell any difference. I was expecting to possibly "go" a couple times a day...which was not what happened. I expected to maybe lose a few pounds...again, didn't happen, but most of all, I was hoping it would relieve some of my bloating...still not sure about this.
As usual, I went at my normal time in the morning (there was no change in this) and although I took two capsules in the evening, I didn't see any change after I went to bed.
I know that everyone's body is different and that everyone's body reacts a different way and not everyone will have the same result. I'm thinking I may be the one that didn't have any results. NOW....I will tell you, that AFTER I missed a day or two of not taking these Colon Cleanse capsules, it seemed like I "went" a lot easier and had a better outcome.
I'm not saying these Colon Cleanse capsules wouldn't work for you, I'm just saying, they didn't work for me...not that I could really tell. If you are interested in trying the Colon Cleanse capsules for yourself, you can purchase them through Amazon.
I plan to stop taking these Colon Cleanse capsules, and see if I get, maybe, better results. Maybe once you stop taking these capsules, is when they finally work. I will keep you posted.

Youth Express Eye Serum Review
I was honored when I was asked to try Youth Express Eye Serum, as well as the Youth Express Eye Gel, in return for a review. How could I say NO?! My first thought was, "Well, I might as well try it, what do I have to lose?" Let me tell you...I was so glad I did. I have been using this product for about a week or so and have noticed that the fine lines around my eye area have somewhat diminished a bit.
I'm not saying they are totally gone, but I am saying that they are less noticeable. The product claims that it can take up to 8 weeks to see a very noticeable result, in most customer's cases. I can't wait to see what this product will do then!
At first, I was a little alarmed, or taken back, by the bright orange color of the Youth Express Eye Serum. But, the citrus smell was wonderful and after applying just a little drop under each eye, it did not leave any orange tint, color or residue. The Youth Express Eye Serum made my eyes feel hydrated and smooth and did not cause any irritation at all. I love the smell of this Youth Express Eye Serum as well as the results I am beginning to see.
The Youth Express Eye Serum is said to restore the youthful appearance around the eye area and has these key ingredients:
* Vitamin C
* Plant Stem Cells
* Hyaluronic Acid
* Caffeine
* Passion Flower
* Matrixyl 3000
* Kojic Acid
* Niacinamide
* Astaxanthin
If you want to get that youthful eye appearance, diminish fine lines and reduce the puffy look of your eyes, head on over to Amazon-Youth Express Eye Serum and Amazon-Youth Express Eye Gel to try both products. I think you will be pleased with the results.
