Pure and Potent Turmeric Curcumin Extract by True Synergy-Review


Turmeric is no longer just a spice used in curry dishes it's making a big name for itself in the health & wellness world.  Nowadays you can find Turmeric in all kinds of supplements and even body scrubs & other skin care products.
Turmeric has powerful antioxidant effects. It neutralizes free radicals on its own, then stimulates the body's own antioxidant enzymes, it has a potent anti-inflammation response, promotes cellular homeostasis, supports joint, heart & brain health, improves brain function and even benefits radiant skin & hair.
True Synergy sent me their Pure and Potent Turmeric Curcumin Extract to test out for them so for the last several weeks it has been part of my supplement regime.  Since I deal with extensive neck and back issues it feels great to know that I am naturally giving my body a little extra help in reducing pain & inflammation.  It's always better to rely on supplements/food to help manage pain or any other health issue rather taking a handful of over-the-counter or prescription medicine.

For more information & to purchase the Pure and Potent Turmeric Curcumin Extract by True Synergy go to Amazon.com.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com.  Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

L-Arginine Amino Acid Complex Powder by Dalvia-Review



When Dalvia sent me this product to review for them I wasn't exactly sure how/when I was suppose to use it.  The main ingredient is obviously L-Arginine which is beneficial for blood circulation, cardiac health and having the proper amino acids in our body can help us prevent angina, chest pains, blood clots, clogged arteries, high blood pressure, pre-eclampsia (for pregnant women), coronary heart diseases and other heart issues.  Aside from its heart benefits the product can actually help in other health aspects like maintaining balance in the body, wound healing, building muscle mass, growth regulation, boosting the immune system, and many other health benefits.
L-Arginine Amino Acid Complex Powder is typically used for a pre-workout recovery drink.  However, since it also contains lots of really great vitamins like Vitamin B6 and B12 which give you increased energy and aids the immune system I decided to not only drink it before I work out but also drink it in the morning so it gives me just that little bit of extra, much needed energy.  All you have to do is mix 1 tablespoon of the The L-Arginine Amino Acid Complex Powder by Dalvia for each 8 oz. of water and your good to go!  It comes in a Fruit Punch flavor but I think it tastes more like a berry flavor, either way it's a pleasant taste.  It actually tastes similar to some of the other vitamin drink mixes that are out there.  I think L-Arginine Amino Acid Complex Powder by Dalvia a great addition to any health regime and to any workout routine!

Annmarie Gianni Skin Care**The GetAway Sample Kit** Review


I was sent this GetAway Sample Kit to review for Annmarie Gianni Skin Care which includes their Aloe Herb Cleanser, Ayurvedic Scrub, Purifying Mud Mask, Dead Sea Facial Scrub, Neroli Toning Mist, Coconut Body Oil, Repair Serum and Herbal Facial Oil for Normal and Combination Skin.  (Product Descriptions are from AnnmarieGianni.com)

This cleanser is a gentle and cleansing blend of healing herbs and plants. It's pH balanced to enhance your skins natural acid mantle and protect its moisture barrier for clean and silky-soft skin.  It does a great job removing dirt, oils and dead skin with no harsh detergents, leaving your skin clean, nourished, and soft!



This scrub is an exotic blend of Indian herbs, Moroccan Rhassoul Clay and traditional herbal treatments.  This is a soft yet gentle exfoliant that will rid you of dead skin cells, rejuvenating and revitalizing your face.  This scrub is definitely a favorite of mine and I highly recommend. It left my skin feeling clean, soft and nourished all at the same time!



Purifying Mud Mask
This purifying mask is another favorite of mine!  It's a special blend of mineral rich clays and nutritive blue green algae.  The Purifying Mud Mask will cleanse, mineralize and remove impurities from your skin and pores without destroying its fine natural balance.



Another favorite!  This special blend of dead sea mud, siliceous earth and lavender creates a rich exfoliate to replenish minerals, stimulate circulation and remove dead skin cells which makes it a natural alternative microdermabrasion.  I love how my skin felt clean and smooth after using this scrub!


I have really been into Toning Mists lately and I have added this one to my list of fav as well.  This toner is a soothing, refreshing mist that helps bring your skin back to perfect balance.  It soothes sensitive skin, improve the appearance of your skin, as well as reduce the size of pores.


I am sure this is fantastic product as well but unfortunately the sample size wasn't really enough to use more than once so it's hard to give an opinion on only one use.  However, I'm sure it's fabulous!  It's an organic daily moisturizer, which can also be used as a massage oil, is a unique blend of oils that are infused with nutrient rich herbs to nourish and hydrate your skin.  It also contains essential oils that will help you stay heart centered and calm.



This is another sample size that I was only able to get about 2 uses out of so I can't really form an opinion about but it has great reviews on their website!  The Repair Serum is carefully formulated to transform your skin naturally.  Using vegan stem cells derived from oranges, they have created a new way for your skin to build collagen, repair itself and prevent aging.  This active blend of stem cells, along with Superoxide dismutase (SOD), a powerful antioxidant, will make a noticeable difference in aging skin when used continuously over the course of 30-40 days.  This serum is high in Vitamin C and has the essential oils of Lavender and Sandalwood, which are skin-lightening and balancing.


Herbal Facial Oil
I was also only able to get about 2 uses out of the sample but I really did enjoy how it made my skin feel after application!  This herbal oil is formulated for those who have sensitive to normal skin.  It is a sensitive moisturizer and is calming and gentle on your skin.  Its potent blend of antioxidants and moisturizing oils are a pure spa treatment for your skin and will leave you with a glow that others will envy.  Our herbal facial oil for normal and combination skin is perfect for those with sensitive skin, will help balance the complexion of those with combination (oily/dry) skin, and will leave your face refreshed and hydrated.

Overall, I am really impressed with the entire Annmarie Gianni Skin Care line and there are definitely a lot of products that will be a re-purchase!

Bio'Sensiya Rejuvenating MultiVitamin Night Time Serum-Review.



I have been all about serums and facial oils lately and I have been loving this night time serum that Sweetsation Therapy sent me.  The Bio'Sensiya Rejuvenating MultiVitamin Night Time Serum helps support healthy skin function and also helps maintain firmness.  With ingredients like 1.5% of Vitamin A (Retinol), Vitamin C and Vitamin D it targets the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, improves appearance of pigmentation, skin texture and tone, as well as boosts skin hydration.

I have been using the Bio'Sensiya Rejuvenating MultiVitamin Night Time Serum in my nightly skincare routine for several weeks now and I noticed a definite improvement in my skin overall.  I use it on my face, neck and decollete and I love the look & feel of my skin in the morning.  It feels really well hydrated, the texture seems to be more smooth and it has an overall glow to it.  This serum is a definite Must Have!

PureSouth Naturals Vitamin C Serum-Review



If you follow my blog the you already know I am a huge skincare fanatic and I am always on the hunt for the next best thing in skincare.  With all of the product testing that I do I have found that without a doubt, Vitamin C Serum is a MUST HAVE for every skincare routine, especially for anyone over 20.  You are never too young to start taking care of your skin!
I was sent a bottle of Vitamin C Serum by PureSouth Naturals to review for them and even though I am fortunate that at 41 I don't really have any facial wrinkles yet I definitely have pigmentation issues due to my Melasma.  PureSouth Naturals Vitamin C Serum is a great anti-aging, anti-wrinkle treatment that also helps with hyperpigmentation issues.  
I used the PureSouth Naturals Vitamin C Serum on my Melasma spots & old acne spots twice a day for a few weeks and there is a clear and noticeable difference in the spots.  Not only are the spots less noticeable and my skin texture is more smooth.  Since the serum also contains Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin E Serum it also leaves the skin hydrated and more supple as well.  PureSouth Naturals Vitamin C Serum delivers great results which makes it a great choice for a Vitamin C Serum!
