Somnis by Somnis Sleep Aid

*Somnis by Somnis Sleep Aid

I've talked about my sleeping issues here on my blog before.  It's an on-going struggle for me but fortunately I have found a few natural supplements that have really helped.  

One of those supplement is Somnis by Somnis Sleep Aid.  Somnis is a safe, non-habit forming and all natural sleep aid.  It helps me fall asleep fairly quickly and I stay asleep for at least 5 hours and for me that is HUGE!  I wake feeling refreshed and without any of that fogginess that usually accompanies other sleep aids.
Although I still take my Ambien when I really need a full 8 hours of sleep this Somnis is a much better alternative to use on a regular basis.  Somnis contains a unique, premium blend of proven ingredients including: Melatonin, Gaba, L-Tryptophan, and Vitamin B-6 and does not contain any fillers.

Purelygreat Cream Deodorant ~ Giveaway

*Purelygreat Cream Deodorant

I have been really trying to go the "all natural" route as much as possible and Deodorant has been high on my list.  I've tried a couple of different brands and most recently I have been using this one from Purelygreat.

This Purelygreat Deodorant is a creamy, natural and aluminum-free deodorant.  It smells great and keeps me smelling fresh!  It's made with essential oils, baking soda, corn starch and vegetable glycerin so it allows your skin to breathe and release toxins.  It's a great, natural alternative!  Also, a little goes a long way, one jar is 45 grams and lasts about 2-3 months.

Something to keep in mind is that this is a Deodorant, not an Antiperspirant.  Unfortunately, I am a somewhat of an excessive sweater.  So, I find myself still needing to supplement any Deodorant with my regular Antiperspirant as needed.  This has been the same with all of the natural Deodorants I've tried.  The whole idea is to allow your body to sweat since it's the way our bodies release toxins. so I'm okay with that but sometimes I still need the Antiperspirant.

Have you been wanting to make the switch to an all natural Deodorant as well?  Lucky for you, Purelygreat is sponsoring a Giveaway and will give one lucky reader their own jar of Purelygreat Cream Deodorant!  Giveaway starts 04/21/15 @ 6:00 p.m. PST and ends 04/28/14 @ 6:00 p.m. PST.

*Vitamin C Serum by Life Essentials Skin Care

Are you still on the fence about Vitamin C Serum?  Well, it's time jump off the fence and onto the band wagon!! Vitamin C Serum is the "Holy Grail" of skincare as far as I am concerned.  There is no other product that not only targets several skincare issues but also delivers results.

Liquid Garcinia Cambogia With Green Coffee Bean by Healthnex Supplements

Liquid Garcinia Cambogia With Green Coffee Bean by Healthnex Supplements

Garcinia Cambogia & Green Coffee Bean Extract are two weight conscious supplements that have always worked for me in the past and that I take on a semi-regular basis for weight maintenance.  However, this supplement is a first for me.  This is Garcinia Cambogia AND Green Coffee Bean Extract in one AND it's in liquid form!  Putting this supplement in liquid form ensures faster absorption and I think it's genius!

All you need is 20 drops, twice daily to help suppress your appetite and boost metabolism.  The taste of it is sweet and tart all at the same time and I like to take if first thing in the morning and then again around lunch time.  I love that it's in liquid form so I can just keep it in my purse and that there are no pills to swallow!  Like I said...genius!

If you are looking to loose weight, need help controlling your appetite or want to boost your metabolism and you haven't tried Garcinia Cambogia or Green Coffee Bean Extract then I highly suggest you try this combo out!

YouTrim by PuraLabs

*YouTrim by PuraLabs

I just recently started trying out this YouTrim by PuraLabs again.  I started taking it over a month ago but had to stop almost right after I started because I ended up getting really sick with Walking Pneumonia, Bronchitis and a Sinus Infection, so NOT fun!  Since I had to take anti-biotics, cough syrup and decongestants among other things I had to stop taking all my usual supplements.

Anyway, I've been taking it again for about a week now and it seems to be working great.  I'm sure it would work even better if I would actually remember to take the 2nd dose in the afternoon!  I am so good about taking my supplements in the a.m. but I always get too busy and forget in the afternoon!  However, I love that it gives me the extra energy I need in the morning and when my usual 10:00 am cravings usually start I've now noticed that I don't get that nagging feeling for at least another hour or so.  That is a HUGE help since I tend to want to grab something someone brought into the office and it's usually something I shouldn't be eating!

You Trim works by boosting your metabolism, keep you feeling fuller for long periods of time while also increasing your energy levels.  I like that You Trim is full of ingredients that I have come to know and trust to work.  I am excited to see what my results will be by the time I finish the supplements.  I will keep you posted!

Check out youtrimweightloss.com to order, full overview and all the details!  You can also order on Amazon.com...

Vitamin F by Chantilly Natural Health & Nutrition

*Vitamin F by Chantilly Natural Health & Nutrition

Vitamin F is another supplement that I have recently added to my supplement & skincare routines.  Vitamin F is essential for healthy hair, skin and nails.  It also helps boost the immune system and can even help enhance your mood among other things,  Vitamin F is also only obtained through diet so if you are deficient a supplement like this one from Chantilly is a great option.

A few signs that you might be Vitamin F are:

• Dry skin, acne or skin disorders such as eczema, psoriasis or rosacea 

• Dry hair without luster and hair loss 

• Brittle, slow growing nail 

• Allergies 

• Low energy levels 

• Weight gain 

• Digestion problems, bloating, inflammation, constipation 

• Depression 

• Inability to sleep

I have been taking Vitamin F by Chantilly Natural Health & Nutrition for a few weeks now and overall I just seem to feel better.  It's always hard to tell with my hair, skin and nails since I have a pretty solid hair & skincare routine but my overall mood does seem to be much better and so does my energy level.  I am going to continue taking it for the next couple weeks and see what other results I have.

I have to say that I also love the packaging.  The vitamins come in this cool tin can and then the vitamins themselves are in handy little packets so you can just throw them in your purse!

Go to enzymevitaminhealth.com for more information or to purchase the Vitamin F by Chantilly Natural Health & Nutrition.  You can also purchase on Amazon.com...

Pure Resveratrol Extract by Island Vibrance

*Pure Resveratrol Extract by Island Vibrance

I recently read about the importance of taking Resveratrol to help support Anti-Aging so of course I had to try it our for my self and see what all the fuss was about!  First I did a little research and found out that there is compound called Polyphenols that is found in the skin and seeds of red grapes as well as some other fruits and berries which is what makes up Resveratrol.  Polyphenols are not only great for your overall heath but are also an effective supplement for anti-aging, rejuvenation of the skin and is also known to help with acne issues.

I've been taking the Pure Resveratrol Extract by Island Vibrance for a few weeks now and while skin seems more supple it's hard for me to pinpoint if that's a result of my skincare products or the supplement.  However, since this supplement is 100% safe and natural and contains zero fillers or artificial ingredients I am going to to continue to take it as part of my everyday supplement/skincare routine.  After all, great skin starts from within and I'm going to let the Pure Resveratrol Extract works it's magic!  Plus, I also read that it helps burn extra calories!  Bonus little side effect if you ask me!

You can purchase on islandvibrance.com (their Coconut Colon Detox is great too!) or Amazon.com...

Argan Oil by goPURE Naturals

Argan Oil by goPURE Naturals

I talk about Argan Oil all the time here on the blog.  It is simply a "Must Have", "Holy Grail" product and should be a part of everyone's beauty and skincare routines.

There are a few things that identify a good quality Argan Oil like this one from goPure Naturals.  It should be from Morocco (it's endemic to Morocco anyway) and it should be 100% pure & certified Organic like this one from goPure Naturals.

Argain Oil is non-greasy and does not irritate the skin and can be used to hydrate hair, skin, nails and even cracked heels!  It can even be used on oily, acne-prone skin.  That's why Argan Oil is also known as "Liquid Gold", there are just so many uses for it.  It's seriously amazing stuff that I use everyday!

Believe it or not Moroccans also use Argan Oil to dip bread in or drizzle on pasta.  I have yet to consume Argan Oil but it's definitely something that is on my to do list!

Go to cleopatraschoice.com to grab a bottle of this Argan Oil by goPURE Naturals or you can also purchase on Amazon.com...
