Aromata 100% Pure Organic Lavender Oil + Giveaway



For me, Organic Essential Oil is the only way to go!  I have been loving this Organic Lavender Oil  from Aromata.  This Organic Lavender Oil comes from Bulgaria, where climate and untainted fields are ideal for growing and harvesting Lavender (who knew!!).  I have found that the smell of Lavender Oil can change depending on where it's from, if it's pure or not and if it's Organic or not.  This 100% Pure Organic Lavender Oil smells amazing and it's what I have been using in my latest Rollerball Perfume & Salt Scrub creations.  I just did a post on the Fractionated Coconut Oil that I used to make my the perfumes and scrubs with this Lavender Oil so make sure you check that out too!
I have been keeping this Lavender Oil by my bedside and applying a drop directly onto my wrists and massaging it in and also on my pillows to help me relax and fall asleep more quickly.  It also works wonders in my laundry!  I put a few drops into the rinse cycle when I am doing laundry and it leaves a light, fresh Lavender scent!  The possibilities are endless!!

Aromata has generously offered to sponsor a Giveaway and give one of my lucky readers a FREE bottle of their 100% Pure Organic Lavender Oil!  The Giveaway starts 04/28/15 @ 3:00 p.m. PST and ends 05/05/15 @ 3 p.m. PST.  Good Luck!!


You can also purchase the Aromata 100% Pure Organic Lavender Oil on Amazon.com...

Fractionated Coconut Oil by La Vida Essentials



I had never even heard of Fractionated Coconut Oil up until a few months ago and now it seems to be everywhere!  La Vida Essentials sent me their Fractionated Coconut Oil to try out for them and since Fractionated Coconut Oil is the perfect carrier oil I have been busy making all sorts of things.  
My favorite thing to make is RollerBall Perfumes using the Fractionated Coconut Oil and Essential Oils.  It's fun tapping into my creative side and coming up with my own original scents using different Essential Oils.  I also really like making my own salt scrubs which can easily be made using the Fractionated Coconut Oil, Epsom Salt and Essential Oils.
Not only does this Fractionated Coconut Oil by La Vida Essentials make a perfect carrier oil it also can be used by itself as an all over moisturizer for skin and hair.  It leaves skin feeling really hydrated, soft and smooth, it's non-greasy and it doesn't clog pores.


You can grab a bottle of this Fractionated Coconut Oil by La Vida Essentials on Amazon.com.
Also, make sure you check out Amazon for their great selection of RollerBall bottles and all sorts of jars to make it easy to craft your very own bath & beauty products!

Retinol Serum by Amara Organics



Amara Organics has become one of my favorite skincare brands so I was beyond excited when they sent me their Retinol Serum to try out!  
Since I am now in my 40's I think Retinol is a VIP (Very Important Product) in my skincare routine.  For me using Retinol means fewer lines & wrinkles, reduced breakouts, smoother skin texture and less hyperpigmentation and a healthy glow.  I apply this Retinol Serum to my entire face, around my eyes, down my neck and on my decollete.
Retinol helps repair skin by stimulating collagen and speeding up skin cell turnover and revealing new skin.  Which is exactly why you should really only be using Retinol as part of your evening skincare routine.  The last thing you want to do is expose that delicate new skin to the sun which could end up having the opposite effect that you are trying to achieve, it can make you age faster!  You need to protect that new skin so make sure you are applying a sunscreen during the day while you are treating your skin with any Retinol product.
One of the reasons why I have grown to love Amara Organics (besides the fact that they have phenomenal skincare products) is because they only use the best, natural plant-based ingredients available, with no parabens, no alcohol, and no animal testing!  LOVE, LOVE & LOVE!

***Please keep in mind that Retinol products are NOT recommend NOT recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding!***

Go to AmaraOrganics.com for more information or to purchase this Retinol Serum or any of their other products.  You can also purchase on Amazon.com...

Organic Vitamin C Serum by Elleda



I am super excited to share another excellent option for Organic Vitamin C Serum with y'all!  This one is by Elleda.  This Vitamin C Serum contains 72% organic and 98% natural ingredients and a potent mix of 20% Vitamin C, Botanical Hyaluronic Acid and super nourishing Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil.
If you follow my blog then you already know how much I love my Vitamin C Serum!  However, not all Vitamin C Serums are created equal.  A good Vitamin C Serum should only contain all natural and organic ingredients, like this one from Elleda.
I am 41 and have aging, oily, sensitive and acne-prone skin and this serum worked perfectly for me. It firmed, hydrated and plumped my skin.  It diminished my fine lines and wrinkles, helped heal my acne and left my skin feeling rejuvenated.  It also made my Melasma appear less noticeable.   This Vitamin C Serum definitely gets two thumbs up from me!!
The Serum itself is really lightweight and immediately soaks into the skin upon application and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated. 


The Organic Vitamin C Serum by Elleda is also 100% free of parabens and sulfates and cruelty free!  Go to elleda.com for more information and you can purchase the Organic Vitamin C Serum by Elleda on Amazon.com...

Biotin by Number One Nutrition



I have used Biotin to keep my hair, skin and nails healthy and in good condition off and on for years.  I definitely notice a dramatic difference, especially in my nails when I am taking it and when I am not.  
For some reason my fingernails are the first thing that suffers when I stop taking Biotin.  They become way more brittle and they don't grow near as fast as they do when I am taking the Biotin.
I also notice a difference in my skin and hair.  My hair seems more healthy and grows a lot faster and my skin seems to have more of that inner glow and appears more supple.
This Biotin by Number One Nutrition is the maximum potency and value at 10,000 mcg so it's the perfect option if your growing out your hair and nails or wanting supple, glowing skin!


Go to numberonenutrition.com for information on some of their other products and you can purchase this Biotin by Number One Nutrition on Amazon.com.

Argan Oil by Beautease Beauty



If you read my blog on a regular basis then you already know my love of Argan Oil!  Argan Oil is great for skincare, hair care, nail care...EVERYTHING!  I love discovering new brands of Argan Oil that are of the quality I demand in my Argan Oil but at a fraction of the cost that I would normally pay.  
This Argan Oil by Beautease Beauty is a perfect example of that!  Not only is it 100% pure and organic but you can pick up a 5.07 oz. bottle for just $14.95 on Amazon!  
Plus, let's talk about packaging for a minute.  I am not sure why but all other Argan Oil that I have used has been packaged in dark glass bottles.  I've done a little research and Argan Oil can't really "go bad" from sun exposure, which is why some products are packaged in dark glass bottles so I am not sure why all the glass bottles.  While I like the glass bottles and they look nice sitting on the bathroom counter I have to say I was really excited that this Argan Oil arrived in a plastic bottle!  I would always hesitate to pack my glass bottled Argan Oil for trips and now I can pack this one instead and not worry about a glass bottle breaking!
Go to Amazon.com to pick up your own bottle of Argan Oil by Beautease Beauty!
