Yumi Beautiful Vitamin C Serum with Aloe Vera, Hyaluronic Acid and 14 Organic Extracts-Review

*Yumi Beautiful Vitamin C Serum

Yumi Beautiful is another brand that I have come to love.  I did a review on their Rose Hip Oil and I am currently testing out their Asteria Anti-Aging Serum and not only do they make great, quality products I also love their packaging, they look & feel expensive and they look really pretty sitting on my bathroom counter!
Yumi Beautiful sent me their Vitamin C Serum several weeks ago and I have been testing it out on mostly my face in my morning & nightly skincare routines.  The Yumi Beautiful Vitamin C Serum is the prefect blend of Vitamin C, Aloe Vera, Hyaluronic Acid and other natural ingredients.  The serum is clear and slighty thiicker than water, it's also very lightweight and absorbs really quickly.  It leaves your skin feeling moisturized and really soft and because it's so lightweight it's perfect to wear under makeup.

Go to YumiBeautiful.com for more info and to check out their other products and you can also purchase on Amazon.com.

Ultra Lift Treatment by Foxbrim-Review

*Ultra Lift Treatment by Foxbrim

Foxbrim is another skin care company that has become one of my favorites and I love it when I get to try out their new products. (You can read some of my other Foxbrim reviews here.)  I have been using their new Ultra Lift Treatment that they sent me for the last several weeks & I have been really happy with the results.

I have been using the Ultra Lift Treatment on my neck & decollete area and I have noticed that the lines on my neck seem less noticeable and the skin tone on my neck & decollete area is more even.  Unfortunately, I have some Melasma on my neck and decollete and because the Ultra Lift Treatment has Panthenol in it which helps exfoliate dead skin cells and to reveal fresh, new skin & helps diminish the look of my Melasma.  The Panthenol also helps plump, moisturize & heal the skin.  The Ultra Lift Treatment by Foxbrim also contains other quality, natural ingredients like Vitamin A, Peptides and Hyaluronic Acid.  The Ultra Lift Treatment is very lightweight and absorbs quickly into the skin and I love that little goes a really long way! 

Go to Foxbrim.com to check out some of their other products and go to Amazon.com to purchase the  Ultra Lift Treatment by Foxbrim for yourself.

It couldn't have been more perfect timing to be able to test these out!  With the Cold & Flu season in full force around the office these bad boys were put to good use.

I loved taking this to my Barre3 class with me.  Not only did it quench my thirst, it replenished all my electrolytes!

Love, love, love this lotion!  This stuff is awesome for super dry hands & feet, it absorbs quickly and leaves your skin feeling really soft.

Swiss Miss Simply Cocoa

This cocoa taste just like the one mom used to make from scratch!  So yummy :)

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick

Loved this lipstick!  It's super creamy and left my lips feel soft & moisturized.

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lip Liner

Another great product from Rimmel!  This white lip liner helps keep your lipstick from smudging and bleeding for up to 7 hours.

Rimmel Scandaleyes Rockin Curves

My favorite Rimmel product!  I love this mascara.  It coats every last lash and doesn't clump!

Clairol Hair Food

This product was totally new to me and it will be something that I re-purchase when I run out.  This made my hair feel really soft and more manageable.  Loved it!  Plus, it's Paraben & Mineral Oil free.

Klamath Blue Green Algae is a new to me and since I haven't heard much about I did a little research and found out that it's a great source of protein, with about 6 grams in each 100-gram serving and it includes all the essential amino acids.  Not only that, Klamath Blue Green Algae Supplement by BRI Nutrition also provides modest amounts of several important minerals, including calcium, iron, potassium and magnesium, as well as small amounts of zinc and phosphorus.  The algae also contains vitamins A, C, E and several of the B vitamins, including thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin B-6 and folate.  I have been taking the Klamath Blue Green Algae Supplement that BRI Nutrition sent me to test out for them and I have been enjoying the benefits of it.  I feel like my energy has increased and I even seem to be more alert.  With all my sleeping issues I need all the extra energy & alertness I can get!  I know all the vitamins and minerals in the algae are really good for my overall health as well.

Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive by Monat-Review

*Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive by Monat

I have really been enjoying testing out all of the different hair oils that are on the market right now.  I have had a chance to test the entire spectrum of hair oils from low end to high end and I definitely have my favorites.  One of those favorites is the Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive that iFabbio & Monat sent me to test out for them.

First of all, let's talk packaging!  We beauty bloggers love our packaging and the packaging for the  Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive does not disappoint.  The bottle for the Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive looks & feels high end & luxurious and I love that you just have to press the "button" on the top of the lid to draw the oil into the dropper, it's a very cool & innovative feature.

The Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive is actually a dual oil that can be used on your hair & skin.  The lightweight oil is unique blend of  11+ molecular ingredients, that includes vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, beta-carotene, omega-6 fatty acids, nutrients and amino acids, suitable for all skin and hair types.  All of these ingredients have been proven to mimic the body’s own natural oils to reduce hair thinning, prevents further damage and adds volume and shine.  The Capixyl™, is a special ingredient that is powered with Red Clover Extract, a gentle emollient that reduces scalp inflammation, strengthens and thickens hair, and hydrates the scalp to stimulate natural, noticeable hair growth.

I have only been using it on my hair for the most part, however, I love rubbing any remaining oil into my skin after I have applied it to my hair and it leaves my skin feeling really soft and supple.  The oil is very lightweight & has a light, almost citrus scent to it and when I apply it to my hair it's quickly absorbed and makes my hair feel silky, soft and leaves it looking shiny & healthy.

Since I have been using the Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive on my hair for several weeks now I have really noticed how my hair feels & looks healthier than it did before I started using it, proof to me that the Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive works!  For me, this oil is like magic in a bottle!  The Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive does come with a hefty price tag of $99.00 but like I said it's magic in a bottle and apparently magic is expensive!

Monat has a lot of other hair care products that I would love to try and if they work even half as good as the  Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive then they are bound to be pretty fantastic.
