LEMON OIL


LEMON OIL
 This stuff is awesome! I put it in my aroma defuser and it gives my home an uplifting citrus scent. I really like this because it is ingestible. I love being able to put a few drops of this in my water without having to buy a lemon just for a glass. I just put 2-3 drops in this and it tastes fabulous! I have put it in my water and in my ice tea and it gives it a great lemon taste. This is a 4oz bottle so it will last a long time! I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Cellulite Cream with Caffeine and Seaweed Extract


Cellulite Cream with Caffeine and Seaweed Extract


With the caffeine in this it makes it great! You can really feel your skin come alive and tighten up. I can feel the caffeine working and it feels like my circulation is better in the areas that I used this on. I used this as a body wrap where I would apply this to my stomach and thighs wrap it in syran wrap and wear it over night it really helps. I am not a big seaweed fan because of the smell but I had no smell or any lingering scent from the lotion. I can see a difference in my skin where it is tighter and with the wrap it helps to tighten the skin and loose some of the water weight so its a win win.

Peptide Complex Serum


Peptide Complex Serum


This serum has many uses to help with wrinkles fine line and crow feet. For me what intrigued me is how it is to help with is how it is supposed to help skin discoloration. I have splotches of my legs that I have had my entire life that are darker than the rest of my skin tone. I started putting this on the splotches and it has helped fade them and make the skin tones match. I was surprised that it did. I wasn't super worried about the splotches but thought I would never see them match. This worked great on them! I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

ORGANIC Argan Oil


ORGANIC Argan Oil
 
Organic argan oil is a great oil that I have been using on my hair for awhile now. It helps ad a great shine to my hair without making it feel greasy or oily. It has really helped my hair in heal against breakage and haven't noticed as much breakage. I also use it on my nails to keep them looking great and hard and not breaking. This stuff you can use everywhere I use it on my face as well for acne breakouts and to help clear up my face it works great. A little bit of this goes a long way and it has a nice smell to it.  received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Dr. Song 20% Salicylic Acid Gel Peel


Dr. Song 20% Salicylic Acid Gel Peel


This acid peel really does the trick. Now I must warn you before you apply fully to your face you want to do a small test patch first because for me this worked wonders but for my friend who did it with me it gave her a small sun burnt effect but still worked as it was intended. This stuff really helped my face though it cleaned out my pores and cleared up blackheads. It helped fade acne scars and clear up the breakouts currently on my face. It left my face feeling softer and looking clean and clearer. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Essential Oil Diffuser


Gurin Spa Vapor Advanced Wellness Instant Healthful Mist Ultrasonic Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser

 
 
This is a gorgeous little oil diffuser is great for its size. It has a great design and look of it. I like how you can set how long you want it to run from 30,60,120 & 180 minutes. Not only does it put a great scent out but it puts moisture in the air which helps tremendously since I have been sick. It came with a lavender oil which smelled lovely and loved how the machine diffuses the oil. It is easy to open and close the container. It comes with a small cup with a spout to get the right amount of water and easily able to pour it in the machine. The machine is 100% noise free and you don't hear anything coming from the machine. You can turn the led light on or keep it off which is nice but it has 6 great colors to choose from and makes the machine match any décor. This is a great oil diffuser and looks great and keeps my home smelling nice. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Kleenex®

Kleenex®

Okay lets be serious here the cold and flu season is definitely  upon us this year and everyone is always in need of some Kleenexes! I was given an opportunity by Crowdtap to receive these samples and review them. What could be better free stuff of something I was going to buy anyways and the ability to try a different kind of Kleenex I probably wouldn't have bought before.
The first box the blue one on the left is a new product I hadn't seen nor heard of before I was given the opportunity to try it thanks to Crowdtap. It is an anti viral tissue. It helps tarp the germs in the tissue. As always you get the awesome quality from Kleenex of the soft but strong tissue that doesn't break and holds in the germs. As for the second box the green one on the right it is Kleenex infused with aloe which worked wonders for my nose as it was red and sore from being sick and blowing my nose so much. It helped so much by soothing my nose and giving it some healing moisture that I needed! Kleenex has always been the only tissue my family has used since I was little and will always be in my home. To sweeten the deal of this great product click on the link posted below to get $1.50 off the purchase of 2 boxes!

Natural Seaweed Powder


Certified Organic & 100% Natural Seaweed Powder
 
This product is for some but not others. I liked the effects to it with a body wrap on how it helped smooth my skin tighten it and make it feel and look better with tighter firmer skin. The issues I had with this product is the smell and look of it. It looks greenish/brownish and looked like baby poop. My biggest issue with it that I didn't like is the smell. It smells very fishy like which of course is something that would happen considering it is seaweed powder but the smell was so strong I couldn't stand it. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Amour Scents

Amour Scents Candles

I was given an amazing opportunity to receive an Amour Scents candle. Inside every candle their is a jewel of some sort. Could be earrings, a ring, or a pendant for a necklace. Before I get into the jewelry lets start with the candle. These are all 100% American made and eco friendly. They have many different scents to pick from which made it so hard for me to choose a scent. I choose apple pie and it made my house smell amazing and just like an apple pie was being baked as it was burning. The smell wasn't over bearing and made it to strong but gave a nice smell throughout the house. Now to the fun part. It took me about 5 hours of burning to get to the jewel in the candle. Picture below are photos I took throughout the process of waiting for my treasure to be revealed!
 





The jewel comes protected wrapped in foil as you can start to see it appear through the wax. Once it was loose I was able to take a pair of tweezers and pull it out.
 






 After unwrapping the foil you can see that the ring that was in my candle was well protected in a plastic baggie as well and pulling it out it was absolutely gorgeous. All of the jewelry that comes in the candles are pure 925 sterling silver! I loved having this opportunity and it was such fun waiting to see what would be inside my candle.

This is a durable, strongly made mesh. It comes with all the mounting hardware and easy to set up. This clasps back together after you go through it and my puppy loves going through the doors opening and closing it since he can do it on his own. The mesh is very strong and doesn't look like it will break at all or easily. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Kitchen Grinder Set


Kitchen Grinder Set by bobuCuisine
 


These are darling and perfect! They looked great on my table at Christmas this year and had so many compliments on them. The base is a heavy glass that is well constructed. These don't come filled but in the end what it costs for the stuff to fill is a better price in the end game and it is better that you can refill them instead of buying a set that is only the first filled. These have a heavy duty lid that screws to the base. There is a protective cover that protects the grinder top. I think that is one of the best features it keeps stuff from splattering into the top and makes me feel secure that germs and all of that stays out of the grinder. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Nutritional Yeast Flakes


Nutritional Yeast Flakes


Nutritional yeast is a super food that is full of vitamins and other nutrients that are all non synthetic. This is an ancient Egyptian super food that is great for you. It will help keep you and your family healthy by giving them some all natural ingredients that will keep them strong and healthy. I made some awesome spicy mac and cheese with this. Instead of using processed cheese I used this and it was great.
 
Here is the recipe I used.
 
  • 8 oz.  of your favorite pasta
  • 1 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or your favorite unsweetened non-dairy milk
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 heaping tablespoons flour (spelt, rice, tapioca or all-purpose)
  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder
  • mineral salt, to taste

  • Cook your pasta according to package. Drain and place back in pot, set aside.

    In a small/medium sauce pan, heat oil over medium heat, add flour and whisk to incorporate. Continue whisking and cook for 2 minutes. Add milk slowly, whisking constantly. Turn heat to low and cook until sauce thickens, about 8 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Stir in nutritional yeast, salt, garlic powder, chili powder and chipotle powder. Stir until everything is incorporated and smooth again. Taste for flavor. 

    Add sauce to the pasta, toss well, add more milk as needed and serve right away.

     
     
    This is a great vegan product as well for someone who lives a vegan lifestyle. I loved the taste of it but for some it seems it is an acquired taste to it. I received this product in exchange for my honest review

    An amazing sleek looking scale. It is tempered glass and looks great. You can program up to 8 different people on this scale. You press the set buttons and you will choose your height weight and age. It is really great to track your weight loss. I love how it breaks down each thing.

This has a clear screen with a bright blue background so you can easily read it. It is slim and has a fantastic design to it and looks great in my bathroom. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

    AYL StarLight - 300 Lumens Ultra Bright LED Lantern


    AYL StarLight - 300 Lumens Ultra Bright LED Lantern


    This truly is an ultra bright lantern and I am extremely impressed and in love with this. I am big into camping and am always looking for cool stuff to take with on camping trips or to have in my car for emergencies. This has toped the list at my favorite! This takes 3D batteries and is extremely bright with a lot of power. It has 3 different settings low (which is brighter than most lanterns at their highest setting) and high which is extremely bright and didn't think the lantern could get much brighter. It also has a flashing warning light to it as well. I like that it has a hanging hook to hang the way it is shown in the picture it also has the ability where you can take the lantern top off and hang it from a hook that is on the bottom of the  base. It will hang upside down as a light as well. This is a great item to have in your vehicle and on your camping trips. It is very sturdily built, well made and durable. It isn't super heavy so it is easy to carry with for camping trips and small enough to fit under the seat of my truck in case of an emergency. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.
     

    The picture is of the lantern on the low brightness setting! It gives twice as bright on the high setting!
