Tea Sampler by Enjoying Tea ~ Giveaway



I love, love, love TEA!  I drink tea almost everyday.  Sometimes I drink hot tea, sometimes cold, sometimes in the morning and sometimes at night and sometimes all of the above!
I was sent this Tea Sampler by Enjoying Tea and I have loved trying out all the flavors.  The samples of tea that they sent me included Jasmine Green Tea, Keemun Black Tea, Roasted Mate Chai, Earl Grey Black Tea, Organic Slimming Oolong Tea and Vanilla Rooibos.  My favorite flavors were the Jasmine Green Tea and the Roasted Mate Chai!  So good!  I was familiar with some of the flavors but a few were new to me like the Keemun Black Tea and the Organic Slimming Oolong Tea which were also delicious!  It's immediately obvious that the tea is very high quality because as soon as you open a canister you can smell the lovely scents emanating from within!  Each flavor has it's own unique scent and taste.
This Tea Sampler by Enjoying Tea is not only a great way to try out new flavors of quality tea but it would also make a great gift idea for any tea lover or someone just starting to enjoy tea.  Each tea comes in its own square tin canister and fit perfectly into a decorative box.  It's also very reasonably priced at $21.98 considering I was able to get a few cups of tea from each little tea canister!  You can find 20 different combinations of Tea Samplers on Enjoyingtea.com so you are sure to find something for everyone and there is such a wide variety that I'm sure you'll find something for even the most experienced tea lover!


Go to EnjoyingTea.com for all your tea needs and try some of their Tea Samplers out!  Plus, EnjoyingTea.com is also sponsoring a Giveaway and 1 lucky winner will win a Tea Sampler of their own!  The Giveaway starts 07/01/15 @ 3:00 p.m. PST and ends 07/09/15 @ 3: p.m. PST.  Sorry, U.S. residents only!

Trilane Retinol+Vitamin C


Two of my favorite skincare ingredients are Retinol and Vitamin C.  This moisturizer by Trilane provides the best of both worlds!  You get skin-renewing antioxidants and age-fighting ingredients that help your skin look and feels years younger!
The Trilane Retinol+Vitamin C moisturizer also contains Squalane which is a oilless oil and is supposed to be lightweight, clear, odorless and non-comedogenic and provides intense hydration and makes skin feel soft and smooth.
I am 41 and I have obvious age concerns, however, I also still have very oily skin so I have to be very conscious of what I put on my face.  I think the Squalane was a bit too intense for my face.  While it did in fact leave my skin feeling super soft I think the intensity of the hydration was a bit too much for my already oily skin so it took a really long time for the product to absorb.  However, I continued to use it as under my eyes, on my neck and decollete and loved the results!  Since it contains Retinol, which can make skin sun-sensitive I decided to only use it as part of my nightly skincare routine.  I like to apply the Trilane Retinol+Vitamin C right after I cleanse my skin, while it's still damp and massage it in, it only takes a drop or two and it automatically feels moisturize and super soft!  After just 1 week I noticed a difference in my skin texture, tone and my fine lines were even diminished.
With Trilane Retinol+Vitamin C you will notice a vast improvement in your skin.  It will look and feel more soft and smooth, your skin tone will be more even, fines lines and wrinkles will be reduced, hyperpigmentation will fade and your skin will look luminous!

Tosca Clarifying Shampoo ~ Giveaway



I am pretty picky about what I use on my hair, especially since one of my best friends owns a hair salon.  Since my best friend does own a hair salon that means I have access to a lot of different brands of hair care products and I have tried most of them.  While their are a lot of really good hair care products out there I definitely have my favorites.  My favorites include brands that are Organic, Sodium Chloride free, Sulfate free and Paraben free.  I have found that those are the brands that my hair responds best to.
So, I was really excited to try out the Tosca brand since it is totally new to me!  Tosca is all the things I look for in a brand.  It is made with 100% Certified Organic Botanical Extracts, 100% Sodium Chloride free, 100% Sulfate free and Paraben free.  It's also good for the environment since it's water soluble and biodegradable.  I tried the Tosca Clarifying Shampoo and it left my hair feeling soft and clean but not stripped and my hair also seemed to have a little more shine it it.  I compared this to a similar but much more expensive brand of shampoo that I use and I was really impressed that it did just as good of a job at cleaning my hair and leaving it hydrated and soft for less than half of what the other brand cost.  I also love that the Tosca brand is also Cruelty Free!
Tosca has an entire line of hair care products so I am looking forward to trying out some of their conditioner as well!  Plus, Tosca was nice enough to sponsor a Giveaway for me so TWO lucky readers can win a FREE bottle of Tosca Clarifying Shampoo to test out for themselves!  The Giveaway starts 07/01/15 @ 1:00 p,m. PST and ends 07/08/14 @ 1:00 p.m. PST.  The Giveaway is open to U.S. and Canadian residents only.

Collagen Eye Mask by Beneleaf




I think it's pretty well known by now that I am a huge skincare addict!  Even though I am a fanatic about skincare I have only been using Eye Masks for the last year or so.  Eye Masks are my favorite thing to use, especially if I have a special occasion and I want my under eye area to look puff free and dark circle free!  I have a few favs that really help reduce puffiness, hydrate and reduce dark circles and these Collagen Eye Masks by Beneleaf are definitely one of them!
These Eye Masks are made with cutting edge of skin care technology and contain Hydrogel that is identical in structure to our skin cells.  Upon application the Eye Masks go to work and the potent, skin loving ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid sink into the deepest layers of the dermis leaving it tighter, more hydrated and more smooth.  Dark circles and puffiness disappear! and the results last for a few days not just a few hours!

These Eye Masks are not only perfect for a special occasion or a night of relaxation but they also make a great gift idea!  I have a girlfriend that's getting married next week and these are going in a pre-wedding day goodie bag I am putting together for her!  
Go to beneleaf.com to purchase or for more information and you can also purchase on Amazon.com...

NeoStrata Foaming Glycolic Wash


This NeoStrata Foaming Glycolic Wash is AMAZING and I think it's a "Must Have" item for anyone dealing with uneven skin tone, rough skin texture and congested pores!
This Foaming Glycolic Wash is formulated with 18% Glycolic Acid and 2% Lactobionic Acid which helps exfoliate dead skin cell, unclog congested pores, smooth out skin texture and stimulate cell renewal which also helps eliminate fine lines and wrinkles, leaving your skin looking and feeling clean, clear and rejuvenated.  It's also soap-free, fragrance-free. dye-free and pH balanced.
I use the NeoStrata Foaming Glycolic Wash as part of my morning and evening skincare routines.  I apply to wet skin, massage in and then I let the product sit on my skin for about 15-20 seconds before I wash it off.  I feel like letting the product sit on my skin for those extra 15-20 seconds allows the Glycolic Acid and Lactobionic Acid to really work their magic.  If you have sensitive skin this product may not be for you and may cause undue irritation.  However, if you don't have sensitive skin this product IS for you and I highly recommend it!
I love NeoStrata products!  I have tried a few of them now and have several others on my wish list! Their skincare products are professional grade and deliver professional grade results!

42 Bees Professional Slant Tip Tweezers ~ Giveaway



A great pair of Tweezers can make ALL the difference!  I LOVE these Professional Slant Tip Tweezers that 42 Bees sent me to review for them.  Not only are they comfortable to use but the grasp super fine stray hairs really well.  
I have naturally thin and blond eyebrows and I always get those really fine stray hairs that you can hardly see until they have something like eyeshadow on them and then they really stand out. They are super annoying but these Tweezers are able to grab hold of those fine hairs without breaking them and pull them out with ease.  I also love the little eyebrow comb at the other end so you can comb out your brows to make brow shaping easier.
The 42 Bees Professional Slant Tip Tweezers are made from high quality durable stainless steel so you know that these are Tweezers will last a really long time and not loose the tight gripping action.

Would you like some new Professional Slant Tip Tweezers?  42 Bees was nice enough to sponsor a Giveaway so that one lucky reader can win their very own Slant Tip Tweezers!  The Giveaway starts 06/30/15 @ 12:00 p.m. PST and ends 07/14/15 @ 12:00 p.m. PST and is open to all U.S. and Canadian residents!

Aztec Gold Chia Seeds



Chis Seeds are one of my favorite foods!  Mostly because they are a super food and they are a great source of valuable nutrients and antioxidants for only a few calories.  Chia Seeds are the number one ingredient in almost all of the smoothies that I make and I love to add them my salads and hot cereal as well.
Chia Seeds can help you loose weight by reducing food cravings and by preventing some of the food that you eat from getting absorbed into your system.  They can also help you feel full faster and longer because they can absorb 10 times their weight in water.
There is also evidence that it can help reduce high blood pressure and can also be beneficial for those with Diabetes because Chia Seeds slow down how fast our bodies convert carbohydrates into simple sugars.  They also have higher levels of OMEGA-3 & 6 essential fatty acids than Flax Seeds and are easier to digest.
The Aztec Gold Chia Seeds are from Jalisco, Mexico which is the original and premier origin of Chia Seeds.  The Chia Seeds are grown in ideal conditions, high altitude, rich climate and red soil to create the best possible Chia Seeds.  They are also Certified Kosher.
