*Julienne Vegetable Peeler by RAAYA

I've been on a huge veggie kick lately and creating some really cool looking salads with my new Julienne Vegetable Peeler by RAAYA!  This peeler comes with 4 different types of blades so that you can really customize your dish.  It can also be used for cheese.  I even made a really fun vegetable & cheese platter using this peeler.  You can also use it to make unique garnishes for cocktails.  The possibilities are endless and only limited to your imagination. 

The Julienne Vegetable Peeler by RAAYA is made from high quality stainless steel and is really easy to use.  Clean up is also really easy.  Just rinse peeler and use the included brush to clean off and excess and put it the dishwasher.  This is a fun utensil to add to any kitchen!

Hydrolagen with Hydrolyzed Collagen by Hydrolagen

*Hydrolagen with Hydrolyzed Collagen by Hydrolagen

This Hydrolagen with Hydrolyzed Collagen by Hydrolagen just might be my new favorite smoothie ingredient.  I love adding interesting and beneficial ingredients to my smoothies and this is definitely one of those!

Basically, this is a supplement that contains some really great and necessary vitamins combined with Hydrolyzed Collagen to assist your body in creating new tissue.  How is that beneficial?  That means it can help reduce the signs of aging and help skin retain its elasticity.  It can even help with joint pain and prevent joint degeneration!

Even though I am 42 years old I have been taking fairly good care of my skin since I was about 15 which means I don't have much in the way of wrinkles except for some fine lines.  However, I am all about prevention!  Adding this Hydrolagen with Hydrolyzed Collagen to my daily supplement routine and into my smoothies is definitely about prevention for me.  I've been using it for a few weeks now and my skin does look more supple and I am hoping this Hydrolagen has something to do with it!  This will continue to be part of my supplement routine and favorite ingredient in my smoothies!

Retinol Moisturizer by New York Biology

*Retinol Moisturizer by New York Biology

This Retinol Moisturizer by New York Biology has been the perfect addition to my evening skincare routine! Using this moisturizer every night has help keep my Melasma (hyperpigmentation) in check while also keeping my skin nice and hydrated.

I've been testing out this Retinol Moisturizer on my neck and decollete for the last several weeks.  I have pretty extensive Melasma on my neck and decollete and it's hard to keep it in check.  I wear sunscreen everyday but sometimes it's just not enough.  Incorporating this Retinol Moisturizer by New York Biology into my evening skincare routine has really helped.  Not only has it help lighten and brighten my skin and Melasma patches but it has also helped keep my skin hydrated and nourished.  My fine lines are also less noticeable!

It's perfect to use everyday as a nighttime moisturizer.  It could also be used as a daytime moisturizer if you wear a sunscreen with a high SPF since the Retinol can make your skin sun sensitive.  This Retinol Moisturizer has such a low dose of Retinol (2.5%) it is one that could be used on sensitive skins so I would recommend this for all skin types!

*Super Vitamin C Serum by Lift Care

Of all the skincare products that I use and test out I still think a good Vitamin C Serum just can't be beat.  A good quality Vitamin C Serum like this one from Lift Care can help with a multitude of skin issues.  Also, most Vitamin C Serums are affordable, you don't have to spend a fortune to get great results.
This Super Vitamin C Serum by Lift Care is lightweight and easily absorbed and will leave skin feeling hydrated, soft and smooth.  Within a couple weeks of continued use you will notice a more even skin tone and you will also start to see that fine those annoying lines are less noticeable.
I use this Vitamin C Serum in both my morning and evening skincare routines.  I like to apply it to freshly cleansed and toned skin and while my skin is still slightly damp.  Make sure to apply this serum and all other serums, oils and moisturizers on not just the face but neck and decollete as well.  I also recommend following with a good quality moisturizer and sunscreen as well.  Skin always need extra added moisture and protection, even if your skin is oily!
I would recommend this Vitamin C Serum for all skin types.

10 Piece Makeup Brush Set by Beauty Lally

*10 Piece Makeup Brush Set by Beauty Lally

I wasn't sure what to expect from this 10 Piece Makeup Brush Set by Beauty Lally but I am happy to report I am really impressed so far!  

First of all, I LOVE that they come in a nice, quality case.  It makes it super easy for travel and I will definitely be bringing these with me on my trip to Santa Barbara in September.

The brushes themselves are also really nice.  They are made with quality synthetic hair that is super soft and feels nice against the skin.  They do a great job at picking up product and easily blending it out.  The best part is I haven't had any issues with hair falling out or breaking off, which is a major pet peeve of mine when it comes to brushes.  I will also say that I have paid a lot more for other brushes that I have that are not near as good of quality as these are!
The 10 Piece Makeup Brush Set includes every type of brush you need to create a flawless face and even a few extras!  I would highly recommend this brush set for anyone in the market for a new set.  It's really an affordable, nice quality brush set that includes a nice travel case and a nice compact mirror.  Plus, you have two color choices.  Traditional Black or Brown Wood.

Spot Reducer by MaxLife USA, Inc.

*Spot Reducer by MaxLife USA, Inc.

I have long suffered from Melasma (hyperpigmentation) and I have tried dozens of creams, serums, lotions and potions that promise to help lighten up my spots.  Most of them work to one degree or another but it's nice when you come across one that really delivers!

I've been using this Spot Reducer by MaxLife USA, Inc. for a couple weeks now and I have already noticed a marked improvement in my spots.  It contains a lot of different ingredients that I've never heard of before but truth be told, I don't care because all I know is that it works!

Like most creams of this types it does take a little while before you start to see results.  It took a good 10 days of me using it twice a day before I really noticed a difference.  However, the end results are worth the wait!

The only other negative I can say about this products is that it has a very unpleasant smell.  I can get past it since I love what it does for my Melasma but if your sensitive to smells then I would pass on it trying this.  It's just not a nice smell at all.  :(  Other than that, it's worth checking out!  

Just make sure to use sunscreen when using this or any other lightening product to protect that fresh new lightened skin!

Quick Dry Microfiber Camping Towels by Rallt

*Quick Dry Microfiber Camping Towels by Rallt

These Quick Dry Microfiber Camping Towels by Rallt really the perfect towels to take camping or hiking.  The towels are really light weight and come in their own mesh bags which is perfect for throwing in a backpack or with other camping gear.

The towels dry super fast.  All you need to do is wring out any excess water and then hang dry.  They seem to dry almost instantly.

I recommend washing the Quick Dry Microfiber Camping Towels by Rallt before you use them and not using any sort of fabric softener.  When they are ready to be washed again just throw them in with the rest of your laundry.  However, instead of putting the towels in your dryer save on the electricity and just hang dry them!  After all, they dry super fast!
