Women's Workout Program by Fé Fit



Have you already started in on your New Year's resolutions?  If your like me then working out and loosing weight is on that list!  I've already got a head start on the New Year and I have been trying to burn off all of those Holiday calories by using this new workout program called Fé Fit.
Fé which is pronounced “fay", is the periodic symbol for iron, one of the strongest elements on our planet and it makes Fé Fit the perfect name for a workout program!  What is unique about this program is that it's made by women for women.  It's designed with a busy mom in mind and it won't bulk you up like some workout programs can.  This Fé Fit Essentials Kit contains everything you need to transform from frumpy to fabulous!  Choose from 28 workouts that are 30 minutes or less and cover Cardio, Core, Upper and Lower Body, Total Body Toning, Barre and Stretch Flow.  All the workouts are easy to follow and they are the kind of workouts that work out all of your muscles, and trust me, when you first start you WILL be sore the next day.  I love that sore muscle feeling, it tells me I'm working hard and going to be seeing some results!
As a busy wife, mother, entrepreneur and full time employee I know what it means to be busy.  I also know what happens when I don't carve out at least 30 minutes a day of "me" time!  Craziness ensues!  Unfortunately, more often than, not 30 minutes in my hectic schedule is hard to come by.  I don't know about you but this year I am making me a priority and that means working out as often as possible and making better food choices.
We as women should all make the commitment to make 2016 our year and commit to taking care of ourselves inside and out!  Not only is the Fé Fit workout program a great option to get you on your way to the new you it's also affordable and definitely worth checking out!  #NewYearNewYou  #FeFitWorkOut

100% Tea Tree Essential Oil by Simply Earth***Mask Monday***



Happy Mask Monday!!  Tea Tree Oil is the #1 ingredient that I like to add when I am doing a Mud Mask.  Tea Tree Oil does so many wonderful things for skin which makes it the perfect ingredient to add to a Mud Mask. (recipe for my Tea Tree Oil Mud Mask is listed below)
The most common uses for Tea Tree Oil are for Acne, Cold Sores, Psoriasis Itchy insect bites, sores and sunburns and it is even used to help treat congestion and respiratory tract infections.  Recently, I have been using it to help clear up the cold/flu thing that has been hanging around.  Since Tea Tree Oil is an antiviral essential oil I just add a few drops to a steaming bowl of hot water, cover my head with a towel and breathe in the vapors for five to ten minutes.  It really does help clear my sinuses and it just feels like it's working away killing off all the germs!
I have mentioned Simply Earth here on my blog before and they use only 100% pure ingredients and there are no additives and their oils are undiluted.  The other really cool thing about Simply Earth is that they donate a percentage of their profits to different causes and this month they are donating 13% of the profits from purchases to The Hope Project to help end human trafficking!  That in itself is a beautiful thing.  I am always behind a company that gives back!

Tea Tree Oil Mud Mask:

1 Tbsp Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay
1 Tbsp Water (the warmer the water the better)
3-4 drops of 100% Tea Tree Essential Oil by Simply Earth

Mix together all ingredients until smooth then apply, preferably with a brush, then let dry for about 20 minutes then rinse to reveal fresh, clean, soft and smooth skin!  If you need more mask just simply add equal parts of the Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay and Water.  You can also add more Tea Tree Oil if you would like it to be a little more intense.
I found the perfect little Mask Mixing Bowl Set on Amazon that comes with bowl, measuring spoons, mixing spatula and brush and I use it to mix all my loose powder masks so be sure to check that out as well (it's only $2.09!).

You can find this 100% Tea Tree Essential Oil by Simply Earth on simplyearth.com and Amazon.com...

100% Pine Essential Oil by Simply Earth



Who knew Pine Essential Oil can be used for such a wide variety of health benefits!  For instance, Pine Essential Oil can be used to help treat psoriasis, eczema, blemishes and other skin issues.  It can also be used to treat pain resulting from things like swollen joints or arthritis.  Just applying some Pine Essential Oil to the affected areas will help reduce inflammation and redness and simultaneously eliminating the pain.
Aromatherapy is another great way to enjoy the benefits of 100% Pine Essential Oil by Simply Earth.  You can combine with other Essential Oils like Cedarwood, Rosemary, Lavender or Sage to make your own Aromatherapy elixir and enjoy the stress relief benefits.  Or just massage in a little Pine Oil on the back of your neck and feel the tension melt away!  It can also provide mental clarity and relieve anxiety.
Are you going to be adding Pine Oil to your Essential Oil arsenal?  As always, only use all natural or Organic Essential Oils like the ones from Simply Earth.  I have mentioned Simply Earth here on my blog before and they use only 100% pure ingredients and there are no additives and their oils are undiluted.  The other really cool thing about Simply Earth is that they donate a percentage of their profits to different causes and this month they are donating 13% of the profits from purchases to The Hope Project to help end human trafficking!  That in itself is AMAZING.  I am always behind a company that gives back!

Organic 28 Day Detox Tea by YSEKU ORGANICS




After the Holidays is the perfect time to start a detox!  I like to do a detox about once a month anyway but I usually do a pretty intense one at the end of the year or right at the beginning.  It just depends what my schedule is like during those time frames.
This Organic 28 Day Detox Tea by YSEKU ORGANICS is a great way to do a detox.  This tea has
key ingredients like Green Tea, Peppermint, Green Roobios, Lemon Peel and many others that work together to help your system remove toxins and impurities while also providing antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.  With this 28 Day Detox Tea you will also find that it helps reduce your appetite and you will have increased energy levels.
I like to drink my Organic 28 Day Detox Tea by YSEKU ORGANICS first thing in the morning to help get my metabolism going and so it helps keep my appetite in check.  I also like to have a cup around 1 p.m. or 2 p.m. in the afternoon for a little pick me up.  It smells great and has a great taste with a little kick to it.
While I haven't been loosing any weight while I have been drinking this tea for the last few weeks (I don't consider waste weight loosing weight) I have definitely felt more invigorated and I have had a lot more energy.  The best thing is that I don't find myself reaching for a sugary afternoon snack and my appetite is sufficiently suppressed!
I would recommend to start using this Organic 28 Day Detox Tea by YSEKU ORGANICS at the first of the year when you are planning to start all your other New Year's resolutions.  I really think it will help you feel more energized, help keep your appetite in check and combined with some healthy eating and a workout plan I know it could really help you loose those few pounds you have been wanting to loose!

Face Moisturizer by Spirit Naturals


I thought I my age I wouldn't be dealing with oily skin anymore.  Wrong!  Even at 42 I still have very oily skin.  People always tell me it's a blessing and that it will help keep me looking younger longer but for me it's just a big pain.  I am constantly trying out products that will help me keep my oily skin in check.  For me, it's all about finding the right moisturizer that balances out my skin.
For the last few weeks I have been using this Face Moisturizer by Spirit Naturals and so far I have been really impressed! What I like most about this moisturizer is that it's made with all natural and Organic ingredients like Jojoba Oil, Hemp Oil and Vitamins B5, E, and B12 which is important for me and my skin.
This lotion is lightweight, is quickly absorbed and leaves skin feeling nourished and hydrated not greasy or oily at all.  It really helps balance my oily skin and prep it for makeup.  One pump is enough to cover my entire face and neck so a little goes a long way which means the 1.7 oz. bottle will last me a long time!
So far so good with this Face Moisturizer by Spirit Naturals!  It has helped keep my oily skin in check while keeping my skin hydrated at the same time.  I also have not experienced any breakouts from this which happens sometimes with moisturizers.
I would recommend this moisturizer for all skin types!

True Glow Eye Cream by Valentia



As a beauty blogger you can probably imagine that I am slightly obsessed with skincare and you would be right!  One skincare product that I think you should start using as early as your late teens is an Eye Cream.  A good Eye Cream can make all the difference.  You really start showing your age around your eyes first (at least that is where it's most noticeable first) and it's why the earlier you can start using an Eye Cream the better.
When looking for an Eye Cream you should pick one that only uses quality natural and Organic ingredients like this True Glow Eye Cream by Valentia.  This True Glow Eye Cream contains Organic Rosehip Oil, Vitamin C, Astaxanthin and Arnica among others.  Combined these ingredients helps brighten up dark circles, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, helps tighten and smooth, reduces puffiness and leaves eye area feeling well hydrated.  Everything you want from a good Eye Cream!
The cream itself has the appearance and feeling of a thicker cream but once it's applied it is instantly absorbed into skin and it wears perfectly under makeup.  Once pump is all you need for both eyes, a little goes a long way.  For best results I gently dab in the True Glow Eye Cream by Valentia all around my eye area and if I have any of the Eye Cream left over I will also use it on my neck!
This Eye Cream has everything that I look for in a great Eye Cream and more!  You can purchase the True Glow Eye Cream by Valentia on Amazon.com...
