Vitamin C Serum by Applejack Life

*Vitamin C Serum by Applejack Life

For me as a beauty blogger and self proclaimed skincare addict I think Vitamin C Serum is a MUST HAVE product to have in any skincare regime.  Why?  Well, I am so glad you asked!  A good Vitamin C Serum like this one by Applejack Life can do a multitude of great things for your skin.  Used on a regular basis this serum will reduce fine lines and wrinkles, fade pesky spots and it also helps keep skin clear and smooth.  This Vitamin C Serum has exactly what I look for in a Vitamin C Serum.  Plus, it has another skincare ingredient that I love and that's Hyaluronic Acid!  Hyaluronic Acid helps hydrate, nourish and plump your skin.  Love that stuff!

The serum itself is really lightweight so it's immediately absorbed into the skin and it wears perfectly under makeup.  I use in my morning and evening skincare routines and apply to my face, around my eyes, down my neck and my decollete.  Basically, all the spots wear your age shows the most.  You can even use it on the back of your hands to help with age spots!

If you have been on the fence about trying out Vitamin C Serum for yourself wait no more, it really does work and I highly recommend it!  Just make sure it's all natural and Organic like this one!

*Foldable and Adjustable 852 Stereo Headphones by Darkiron

I am no expert when it comes to Headphones and I am not one too spend a bunch of money on such things.  When it comes to headphones my requirements are that they block most of the outside noise, have good sound quality, that they are comfrotable to wear and that they do not cost a fortune.  Thankfully these Foldable and Adjustable 852 Stereo Headphones by Darkiron meet all my requirements and more!

These are completely adjustable, lightweight and they fold up which makes them perfect for travel.  The ear peices are made out of super soft leather so they are really comfy to wear.

Here are the specifications for those of you that know what it means (I sure don't!):

Frequency response 20Hz-20kHz

Sensitivity:-42dB+/-3dBH

All I know is that they work with my iPhone 6, Android tablet and my Dell laptop so they are very compatible.  The other cool feature is that it has a convenient microphone mute button!

I think these would make the perfect gift if headphones are on your list.  They are really affordable, great quality and they come in a variety of colors as well.

100% Pure Copper Mug by Advanced Mixology

*100% Pure Copper Mug by Advanced Mixology

Probably one of my all time favorite cocktails is the Moscow Mule.  The Moscow Mule has been around for ages but for some reason it has made a huge comeback this year.  I love that I can now order my fav cocktail when we go out and the bartender will actually know what it is!

As most of you already know a traditional Moscow Mile is pretty simple and is made with fresh squeezed lime juice, vodka and Ginger Beer.  However, better quality of the ingredients that you use the better tasting Moscow Mule you will have as a result.  

For the ultimate Moscow Mule I like to use a quality Vodka like Tito's or Grey Goose but if your on a budget like I am most of the time you can also use Smirnoff and you'll still get a great tasting Moscow Mule.  I also try to find Organic Limes when I can and use Cock'n Bull Ginger Beer.  After all, Cock'n Bull is the originator of the Moscow Mule, but also it just has a fantastic Ginger tastes that most other Ginger Beers can't beat.  Last but not least you simply MUST have a Copper Mug to serve the Moscow Mule in.  I promise you they DO NOT taste the same when served in a regular glass.  I think the Copper somehow alters the taste of the drink and it just ends up tasting totally different when served in a regular glass.

I recommend investing in at least 2 really nice Copper Mugs.  I actually prefer to drink most of my cocktails in my Copper Mugs so it's not like you would just be buying a special mug for a drink that you are only going to be having every once in a while.  When you serve a drink in a Copper Mug not only does it look cool but the drink will stay really cold and it will have a batter taste overall.  It's so sciencey!

I have been loving this 100% Pure Copper Mug by Advanced Mixology!  It's a large Mug at 16 oz. and it's amazing quality and I LOVE the special box that it comes in and comes with a matching coaster, nice touch!  It's very beautiful, very classy and makes a great addition to any bar!  I have built up a modest inventory of Copper Mugs and this one is definitely one of my favorites and one that I find myself grabbing for when I am craving a cocktail!  

This Copper Mug would also make a really great gift, especially since it comes in such a cool box!  I like to keep my bar accessories in the box. Things like wine glass charms, coasters and drink umbrellas all fit perfectly inside!

Hosting a Holiday Party soon?  Here is my must try recipe for a Festive Moscow Mule...

Festive Moscow Mule

1/2 ounce lime juice

2 ounces Cranberry vodka

4 ounces ginger beer

1 ounce Organic Cranberry Juice

5-10 Frozen Cranberries

(In preparation you will need to freeze a small bag of Cranberries) Add a few ice cubes to your Copper Mug and pour ingredients over ice then add a few frozen Cranberries which will help keep the cocktail cold, plus it just looks festive!  Finish it off with a Lime wedge and voilà you have a Festive Moscow Mule that's delicious and refreshing!  Your party guests will be impressed!

Frankincense Essential Oil by Simply Earth

*Frankincense Essential Oil by Simply Earth

Frankincense is best know for being one of the things that the wisemen brought to Jesus.  The wisemen brought Frankincense because it was something that was frequently used in worship  It's highly fragrant and was considered a pleasant offering and because it's a symbol of holiness and righteousness.

In today's world Frankincense Essential Oil is used for a wide variety of ailments thanks to it's therapeutic benefits.  This Frankincense Essential Oil by Simply Earth is 100% pure and natural and there are no additives, it's unfiltered, undiluted with no fillers.  A little bit of Frankincense Essential Oil goes a long way and it's best when used in moderation.  

Just smelling Frankincense can invoke feelings of peace and relaxation and adding a few drops to your bath water can great way to de-stress, improve circulation and can even help relieve pain and inflammation.  I mix a few drops of Frankincense Essential Oil with a carrier oil like Fractionated Coconut Oil or Jojoba Oil and massage into my stiff neck, joints and other muscles.

Since Frankincense Essential Oil is also a powerful astringent it can be used to help reduce blemishes, diminish the appearance of large pores and it can even help prevent wrinkles.  Use a carrier oil like Jojoba Oil and mix about 6 drops of oil to one ounce of the Jojoba Oil and apply it directly to the skin.  I would recommend you do a small test patch area first so you can make sure you are not allergic.

So, that's usually how I use my Frankincense Essential Oil but it can be used for many other things

I've been loving my Essential Oils by Simply Earth because they are 100% pure and natural, great quality and because they give back!  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!  So, not only are you getting great quality oils but you can help give back to causes that really matter!

Essential Oils are part of my everyday life and some I use more than others and Peppermint Oil is definitely one that I use everyday.  I keep a rollerball of Peppermint Oil at my desk so whenever I need to focus, feel a headache coming on or just need a little pick me up I rub some Peppermint Oil on and I almost instantly feel better.
This Peppermint Essential Oil by Simply Earth smells amazing and I love the way it feels when I put it on the back of my neck.  I love how I can feel the tension melt away and my muscles relax.  For instant gratification I put a little dab just under my nose and the fog in my head clears and my sinuses open up.  Feels wonderful!  Peppermint Oil has a ton of uses and is very therapeutic, it's hands down my favorite Essential Oil.

Dog Grooming Clippers with Massage Brush by RollinPets

*Dog Grooming Clippers with Massage Brush by RollinPets

We are fortunate enough to have two adorable furbabies, a male Chocolate Lab named Kosmo and a female Silver Pitbull named Karley.  However, with furbabies comes great responsibility and part of that is trimming their nails.

Truthfully, they run for cover when they see the nail clippers come out, especially Karley.  However, using the Massage Brush that came with this set of Dog Grooming Clippers by RollinPets made things a lot easier and way less stressful for everyone.  While my husband clipped their nails I used the Massage Brush and it really helped calm them down.  I think it will take several more times of nail trimming sessions using the Massage Brush for them to really be comfortable and less stressed but so far I am excited that it really did help them not be as scared.  So, once they start associating the Massage Brush and the Nail Clippers together we won't have to chase them down for a trimming sesh!

The Nail Clippers themselves are well made with heavy-duty Stainless Steel and also has a nail guard which is a nice safety feature that prevents cutting off the nails too short which is always a concern of ours.

I also love that this set comes in a convenient bag to store everything.  Now, I can just hang the bag up where I keep their leashes so everything is in one place.  I love it when things are in order and in their place.
