PhantomFit Resistance Loop Bands-Review




Need help with your workout?  Try these cool PhantomFit Resistance Loop Bands! PhantomFit was nice enough to send me a pack of their Resistance Loop Bands to test out and I have been testing them out like a crazy woman.  
Talk about perfect timing, these bands helped motivate me & help me get back on the workout wagon that I had fallen off for various reasons but most of them are just excuses.  I have some serious back & neck issues so working out with the Resistance Loop Bands is perfect for me because it's low impact and I am far less likely to injure or re-injure myself than I would if I was using traditional equipment.  I was even able to incorporate the bands into my Barre3 workouts!  I have to say, one of my favorite things about these bands is that you can get your workout in while watching your favorite T.V. show, trust me, if I can find an excuse not to work out I will find it so I need all the help I can get to eliminate every possible excuse!
I also love that you can also take these little bad boys anywhere with you, they even come with a handy little bag to store them in.  Since you can take them anywhere with you there really is no excuse not to be able to squeeze in a quick workout where ever your travels may take you.  
The PhantomFit Resistance Loop Bands are super lightweight and they are made out of  durable latex that is snap resistant.  PhantomFit also guarantees the quality and if it snaps, they will send you a replacement!  Check out the PhantomFit.com for more information and Amazon.com to purchase the Resistance Loop Bands.

Purely Holistic Phytoceramides Skin Therapy Supplement-Review




If you read my blog you already know that I take a lot of supplements, I figure I need all the help I can get!  The main thing I always look for in a supplement is that it contains 100% natural ingredients & that it doesn't contain binders or fillers.  
Purely Holistic sent me a bottle of their Phytoceramides Skin Therapy Supplement to test out for them and I was more than happy to do so since it's 100% natural & didn't contain any of those nasty binders or fillers, PLUS it's supposed to be like a face lift in a bottle!  While I am not sure I need a face lift at 41 I was more than happy to test these babies out!
To be honest I have never really heard about phytoceramides before so I did a little research and found out that phytoceramides have been proven to hydrate, thicken and bind the skin from the inside out.  This reverses the aging process that naturally occurs with skin making your skin fuller, thicker while reducing wrinkles and crow's feet.  Sounds pretty fantastic to me!
I am fortunate in that I have very few wrinkles at 41 and I swear it's because I take really good care of my skin (skin care addict alert) and I while I know diet has a huge effect on your skin I also believe that taking supplements like this one from Purely Holistic is the key to great skin.  
I have been taking the Phytoceramides Skin Therapy Supplement for the last several weeks but since I don't really have wrinkles I can't really say I've noticed anything in that department but one thing is for sure, given the great reviews & clinical studies that prove phytoceramides combat the signs of aging I am sold and I will continue to use Phytoceramides Skin Therapy Supplement and win this little war on aging!


You can purchase a bottle of Phytoceramides Skin Therapy Supplement on Amazon.com.  Also, make sure you check out the PurelyHolistic.org website to get more information on the Phytoceramides Skin Therapy Supplement & their other products.

DearNature Health Garcinia Cambogia Review + Giveaway



I am already a fan of Garcinia Cambogia because I really do think that it works!  So, when DearNature Health sent me a bottle of their Garcinia Cambogia Premium X to test out for them I was more than happy to help out!  
I have talked about the benefits of Garcinia Cambogia in previous blog posts and how they have helped me not only loose a few pounds but have made it easier for me to maintain my weight.  
A huge benefit of using Garcinia Cambogia Premium X is that it has given me increased energy (which I desperately need!) and it helps suppress my appetite (which I also desperately need!).  Some other added benefits are that it helps decrease belly fat and improves mood & well being by increasing serotonin levels and who doesn't need all of that?
As with all the supplements I take I make sure that they don't contain any binders, fillers or any other artificial ingredients and Garcinia Cambogia Premium X is free of all those nasty things!

Here is your chance to try Garcinia Cambogia Premium X and experience all the great benefits for yourself!  DearNature Health is giving away 1 FREE bottle of their Garcinia Cambogia Premium X to one of my lucky readers!

Exfolimate the Exfoliating Tool-Review



What a cool product!  I am a huge believer of exfoliating and all the benefits that it provides so I was thrilled when Exfolimate sent me their awesome tool for exfoliating.
How does it work you ask?  Basically, Exfolimate uses innovative micro-groove technology etched into the smooth metal edge of the tool. The micro-grooves gently lift and remove lingering skin cells and debris to unveil younger, fresher skin!
I love that they include a separate tool for face and body.  I use mine in the shower following the instructions of gently gliding the tool along the contours of your face/body at a 90-degree angle & to remove the dead skin and debris, simple run the tool under warm running water.  Your skin instantly feels amazing afterwards, so clean & smooth, much more efficient than any body scrub I have ever used!  The key is to use a really good moisturizer immediately after exfoliating.  I also totally recommend using this product if you use a self-tanner.  The Exfolimate preps your skin and allows the self-tanner to absorb better, more evenly and then you don't end up with any streaks or blotchy patches!


Every beauty & skin care lover should have this as part of their tool collection!  You can order your own Exfolimate from any one of the retailers listed on the Exfolimate.com website or Amazon.com.

Even Glow Serum - Antioxidant Skin Treatment - 20% Vitamin C by Valentia Skin Care - Review



I have been really getting into facial serum & oils lately and I have been trying quite a few over the past few months trying to find the perfect one.  I have seen the Valentia brand on Amazon.com and I even have it on my wish list so I was beyond happy when the brand sent me a bottle to test out or them.
The first thing you will notice about the Valentia Even Glow Serum is the packaging,  You immediately feel you are getting a luxurious product when you open the simple yet elegant gold & white box.  Thankfully the packaging itself does not disappoint.  The product looks and feels like exactly like you think it should.  The formula itself feels luxurious and it's creamy orange in color and it has a light texture and it's non-greasy.  As a added bonus it smells orange blossoms! 
 I have been applying the Valentia Even Glow Serum in the morning to my freshly cleansed skin & before my moisturizer (always apply oils & serums before all other products) and I have noticed my skin looks more renewed, refreshed and even toned.  Needless to say, I love this stuff!

According to ValentiaSkinCare.com website the Even Glow Serum promises to:
EVENS SKIN TONE: Vanquish dark spots and skin discoloration, replacing uneven and ill-textured skin with smooth, wrinkle-free skin that leaves you looking flawless and ageless.

INCREASES GLOW & RADIANCE: Revitalize your skin with essential fatty acids that leave skin smooth and radiant. Smooth skin capable of reflecting light will give your skin a youthful glow and a brilliant shine for that well-rested and refreshed look.

ABSORBS RAPIDLY: Moisturizes skin due to the capacity of the hyaluronic acid to absorb water, thereby increasing fluid between cells, giving your skin a smoother and younger appearance. This intense water absorption means no more dry, peeling or cracked skin, even in extreme weather.
BOOST COLLAGEN PRODUCTION: The presence of Organic Rosehip Seed oil increases collagen production so your skin retains the elasticity responsible for a youthful appearance and prevents skin sagging associated with aging. Enjoy smooth and supple skin that takes years off your appearance.
REDUCES WRINKLES & FINE LINES: Reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles with the help of our foundation 20 % Vitamin C. Special ingredients such us Sea Buckthorn oil plump up the skin, which reduces fine lines and wrinkles in the skin so it is smoother, clearer and younger.

Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream-Review



I am really picky when it comes to eye creams and I always seem to be on the hunt for a new one to try out.  So, when Body Merry sent me some of their Age Defense Eye Cream to try I was more than happy to test it out for them.  
First impressions are everything and I have to say that I really liked the packaging for the eye cream.  The Age Defense Eye Cream comes in a great little bottle with pump that allows you to dispense just the right amount of product needed.  Of course the most important thing is the actual product and thankfully that was pretty awesome too!  I have been using the eye cream for a few weeks now and I'm pretty happy with the results so far.  I use it every morning & I love that the light cream absorbs really quickly into my skin and leaves it soft & smooth and takes away my morning eye puffiness.
The Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream is filled with lots of Antioxidants, Natural and Organic components like the ones listed below:
Aloe, Witch Hazel, Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter, Vitamin C, Cucumber, Beeswax, Jojoba Oil, Tamanu Oil, Green Tea, Licorice, Eyebright, Avocado Oil, Flax Seed Oil, Rose Hip Oil, Lemon, Lemongrass, Vitamin B5, Lavender and Chamomile and they have also packed in cutting edge peptides like Matrixyl-3000 and Tripeptide-5 with an ocean based Retinol and botanical Hyaluronic Acid. 

 I also love that this product is proudly made in the USA in an advanced, cruelty-free, FDA registered & GMP compliant facility.  Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream also offers a 100% 90-day Money Back Gaurantee so you really can't go wrong trying it out.  You can purchase your own bottle of Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream at Amazon.com on sale now for only $19.99!
