Activated Charcoal Powder by Zen Charcoal

*Activated Charcoal Powder by Zen Charcoal

Chances are you have probably heard about Activate Charcoal in one form or another, unless of course you've been stranded on a deserted island for the past year and then maybe this is the first time your hearing about it!

Activated Charcoal has many uses but primarily my interest lies in the ways you can use it as it pertains to beauty and skincare, for obvious reasons.

Truth be told this is my first experience with the powder version of Activated Charcoal.  I have used countless beauty products like masks and Konjac Sponges that contain Activated Charcoal but I have never experienced in it's raw form.

One thing you should know about Activated Charcoal Powder is that it is very, very messy!  It's actually not a big deal but just know you'll need to give everything a good wipe down when your done.  My favorite thing to do with this Activated Charcoal Powder by Zen Charcoal is to make a detox mask.  You can really customize the mask depending what is going on with your skin but I like to mix the Activated Charcoal, Water (sometimes I use Rose Water or a little Apple Cider Vinegar), Aloe Vera and if I am really wanting a good detox I will add a few drops of Tea Tree Oil but you can add any essential oil.  Depending on how thick you want the mask to be you simply add less or more water.  I mix everything really well, apply to skin using a brush (way less messy) and then let it dry for 15-20 minutes and rinse off.  Skin feels clean, soft, smooth and detoxed!  It's one of my favorite DIY masks!

Tip:  I purchased a DIY Mask Bowl set from Amazon it comes with a small bowl, measuring spoons, spatula and brush all for the low, low price of $2.21 + free shipping!  It's been a life saver and I highly recommend getting one for yourself if you like to mix your own masks like I do!

Pick up your own bag of all natural Activated Charcoal Powder by Zen Charcoal on Amazon.com and get detoxed inside and out!

Power Pearl Probiotic by Well State

*Power Pearl Probiotic by Well State

Taking a Probiotic is a good thing and during this time of year it's actually a great thing!  I rely on a good, quality Probiotic like this one from Well State that I have been taking to help keep my immune system healthy.  Not only will a Probiotic like this Power Pearl Probiotic by Well State help support your immune system but it can also help improve your energy level and also help balance out your digestive system.  It can possibly even help shed a few pounds by balancing out your digestive system it can also improve your metabolism as a result.
I wish I would have started this round of Probiotic sooner because it probably would have helped me from getting this nasty cold which then turned into a sinus infection and ultimately Strep Throat.  I've been under a lot of emotional stress lately due to a death in the family so I should have known that my immune system was going to be affected and started taking this Probiotic sooner.  However, since I ended up being put on antibiotics it's became the perfect time to start taking it.  I definitely attribute my being able to get over all my issues a lot sooner because I started taking the Power Pearl Probiotic by Well State.  I think it also helped give me so much needed extra energy to power through work when I otherwise would have been at home and in bed.
This Probiotic contains zero sugar, preservatives, GMO, nuts, wheat, gluten, lactose, chemicals, yeast, soy, iron and no artificial colors.  Nothing but the good stuff!  I really recommend this for anyone needing an immunity boost or if you have any digestive or intestinal issues.

Neem Oil by Oleavine

*Neem Oil by Oleavine

While I've used Neem Oil in the past it's been awhile so I decided to take a second look at it.  I didn't know much about Neem Oil other than it worked really well as a therapeutic treatment oil.  So, I decided to do a little research and found that Neem trees are actually native to India and other parts of Asia.  They are known as a Margosa Tree in English and their botanical term is Azadirachta Indica.

Neem Oil has been used in India since thousands of years and is used in many medicines for its disease fighting properties.  Another thing I didn't know that I find fascinating is that every part of the Neem tree is beneficial and can be used because of the anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-parasitic
properties they contain.
Who knew it was SO beneficial!  I have been using this Neem Oil by Oleavine for just about everything lately.  However, our favorite way to use Neem Oil in our household is to treat my husband's Eczema (works amazingly well for Eczema), for minor cuts and scrapes, bug repellent and it works amazingly well on Acne flare ups!  I will warn you and say that Neem Oil has a very distinct smell and it's not all that great, it's a cross between earthy and antiseptic smelling.  I don't mind the smell but my husband isn't crazy about it at all.  But, I guarantee the benefits are totally worth it!
Neem Oil can help reduce redness, inflammation and swelling, removes impurities and tightens pores, helps to lighten hyperpigmentation, deeply moisturizes skin and it can even diminish fine lines and wrinkles!  Plus, it's great for all skin types and is non-comedogenic.
Overall, Neem Oil is a great product to have around.  It has countless uses and the best part is it's all natural.  I highly recommend this Neem Oil by Oleavine for it's superior quality.  It's 100% natural, cold-pressed, unrefined and solvent-free.

You can pick up this Neem Oil by Oleavine on Amazon.com...which by the way is a HUGE bottle and since a little goes a long way will last forever!

Tamanu Oil by BEAUTYOILS.CO

*Tamanu Oil by BEAUTYOILS.CO

I thought I have heard of every oil out there but this Tamanu Oil was totally new to me.  Apparently it's been around for centuries and the Polynesians revered it for its remarkable skin healing properties.  Tamanu Oil by BEAUTYOILS.CO is clearly more of a therapeutic oil.  It's fairly thick and has a woodsy/earthy kind of smell to it and a little goes a long way.  Because this oil is know for it's healing qualities this would be one oil you want to have around and would make a great addition to a First Aid Kit.  It's naturally abundant in fatty acids and possesses anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti-fungal and antioxidant properties which makes it perfect for treating all kinds of skin issues like minor cuts, scrapes, burns, acne wounds, skin ulcers & sores, athlete’s foot, psoriasis, sunburns, rashes, bug bites & stings.  However, you can also use it on scars to help heal them and on areas prone to stretch marks.

We used this oil on my husband's Eczema and it really helped relieve the itching and irritation and it also cut the healing time down by about half.  So, I would really recommend it for that.  I also used it on a few face demons that I had and it also seemed to cut down on the healing time on those as well.  This is a great, general use and therapeutic oil that I am happy has found it's way into my medicine cabinet!
