H! I'm Canda, welcome to GlamRiver! I'm a forty-something blogger from sunny Central Oregon. Here on GlamRiver you will find me sharing my love of beauty & skincare products along with my other obsessions like essential oils, health & fitness, fashion, decor, furbabies, hiking, outdoors, travel, positive vibes, people and even cocktails & food!
Here is another beautiful piece by Silver Masters. This is another one of their Sterling Silver Anklets but this one has a cute Heart accent. Just like the other Sterling Silver Anklet I purchased from them this one is also made from 92.5 percent quality silver and 7.5 percent quality copper. It has a beautiful sparkling finish and looks great with just about anything type of outfit.
These pieces look especially pretty against nice, golden tan skin. They are really the perfect summer accessory! This one would also make a great gift idea as well. So pretty!
Since silver is prone to tarnish make sure it cleaned on a regular basis in order to prevent discoloration.
You can find this beautiful Sterling Silver Anklet with Heart Accent by Silver Masters on Amazon.com...

It's really nice quality and is made from 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper and has a brilliant silver shine to it. I also love the design. It's simple and elegant and goes with just about any look.
It's been awhile since I've worn an anklet and this piece is definitely an inspiration to start wearing one again. It would also make a really great gift idea! Just Beautiful.

I'm always a little skeptical of Deet Free Mosquito Repellent products. Even though I am not a fan of Deet it seems to be the only thing that really keeps the Mosquito's away. However, I thought I would give these Mosquito Repellent Patch by Justified Laboratories a go and see how well they worked.
Overall, they are ok. They are certainly not the worst Mosquito Repellent product that I have ever tried, however, they are not the best either. I tried using these on a long hike where I knew we were going to run into some serious Mosquito's and applied a total of 4 patches but unfortunately they only helped a little and I had to resort to my traditional spray that contains Deet. On the other hand, I also tested them out in our back yard where we tend to get a handful of Mosquito's and the patches seemed to work a little better. So, I think they might work for the occasional Mosquito but when you are surrounded by a few hundred or more I think it might be best to choose something with Deet.
These Mosquito Repellent Patches by Justified Laboratories are a great idea and smell a ton better than Deet infused sprays but they just didn't seem to stand up to a serious swarm of annoying Mosquito's.
If you would like to try these patches out for yourself you can find them on Amazon.com...

I thought this bracelet was such a cool concept and couldn't wait to get one! However, I ended up a little disappointed. I don't usually do bad review on my blog...I really only like to share products that I like and enjoy using. Nonetheless, I thought I would share my thoughts about this Activity Tracker Bracelet by UNIQEE.
First of all, I really like the bracelet. I like the way it looks and feels and like I said, I think it's a great concept. The only problem is that it doesn't fit! It fits if you wear it like a normal bracelet but it's being advertised as a Activity Tracker Bracelet that you can wear over the Activity Tracker and it falls short. Like literally, it falls short. Once you place it over the Activity Tracker it's not longer enough to cover the tracker and you are not able to snap it closed.
Now, I do not have abnormally large wrists. They are normal size, maybe even on the smaller side if anything so it's really unfortunate that it doesn't fit. I checked Amazon to see if anyone else was having this issue, thinking maybe I just got one that has a defect but sadly no. A lot of the reviews were saying the same thing. It's seems it may just be manufactured for adults that have child like wrists. So, if that's you then this is a really cool Activity Tracker Bracelet. However, if your like me then don't waste your money. :(
If you would like to pick one of these up for your kids (lol) you can find it on Amazon.com...

I think was watching an infomercial when I first heard someone say "Real people, real results!". Now, that saying truly has meaning to me!
This Instant Eye Lift by Dynamic Innovation Labs is the real deal! The pictures above are of my husband and the before and afters are taken less than 1 minute of each other. This stuff is seriously amazing. I wanted to use a before and after picture of myself but because I have taken such good care of my skin over the years, even at 42 years old, I thankfully don't have enough wrinkles to to really see the results on film. I obviously noticed a difference in my fine lines but that was just not translating through to pictures. Luckily, my husband volunteered to be my model! He will be 50 in October and I think he looks great for his age but he literally does NOTHING to his skin, he takes a shower and that's where his skincare begins and ends. However, that makes him my perfect model! You can clearly see in the before picture that he has quite a few fine lines, wrinkles and crows feet around his eyes. Then, in the after picture they are just...gone! It's like magic!
What exactly is Instant Eye Lift? Well, science is a great thing and the people at Dynamic Innovation Labs are to be thanked for creating Instant Eye Lift. It is a firming and lifting product that contains Veegum, an ingredient known for its tightening and firming properties that also consists of nourishing and skin loving minerals. The instant (hence the name) you apply it you can feel it working as it tightens and firms the skin taking the years off and leaving you with firm, de-puffed, smooth and wrinkle free skin! You truly look YEARS younger...in an instant!
The results last several hours and in fact my husbands results were still noticeable the next morning. I am not sure what the long term results are, however, as with most skincare products the longer you use them the more you will benefit.
By now you are probably wondering, what's the catch? The catch is the price. It retails for $395.00 (ouch!). While it's a seriously amazing product it definitely hits a very high price point. For most of us $395.00 is way out of our price range. However, it's definitely not something you would use everyday so you could save it for those special occasions and really make it last. You could also get some close friends together and you can all go in on it! It's up to you to decide if it's something you need in your life but one thing is for sure, it is magical and it WORKS!
If your dying to try it for yourself Dynamic Innovation Labs does offer FREE samples and by free I mean you have to pay the $5.99 shipping and handling but it is SO worth it. What are you waiting for? Head over to dynamicsonic.com right now and order your FREE sample of magic!

You don't need to be a fitness fanatic, body builder or weight lifter to benefit from a good quality BCAA powder like this one by Vitality Max Labs. My workouts of choice are hiking, walking, Barre3 and Yoga and I love what BCAA does for me.
BCAA are branched chain amino acids and are essential for the growth and repair of muscles and tissues which is why it makes sense that body builders and weight lifters like to use BCAA's. However, I especially like to use this BCAA powder before I go for a hike and before my Barre3 workouts. I feel like it helps me push through fatigue and I definitely notice that I'm not as sore after a workout or hike when I am diligent about using my BCAA. I just add one scoop of the BCAA Powder by Vitality Max Labs to a small shaker bottle full of water and ice, shake and drink up. It has a great fruity flavor and it even smells yummy too!
Without a doubt if you are a fitness fanatic, body builder or weight lifter then you should be using a quality BCAA powder like this but even if your not it's worth checking out!

First off, don't let the word acid in Hyaluronic Acid fool you! Hyaluronic Acid is the exact opposite of what one would normally think acid to be. 100% Pure Hyaluronic Acid like this one by Vernal helps keep skin hydrated, plump and can even help us look younger!
The unique thing about Hyaluronic Acid is that one gram can hold up to 6 liters of water, that is why it is so effective. It also occurs naturally in the human body and in fact, babies are born with a very high level of it and it is what helps give them their plump, smooth skin.
Obviously, as we age we start to loose the amount of naturally occurring HA in our bodies which is why being able to apply a topical HA to our skin helps re-hydrate it and help it look and feel soft, smooth and can even help firm sagging skin.
Since HA is relatively inexpensive it would definitely be a product that I would recommend for anyone with aging skin, which is basically everyone. Plus, it works great on all skin types, even oily and acne prone skin. In fact, those types can really benefit from the added moisture.
So, if you haven't tried Hyaluronic Acid yet what are you waiting for?!
