Organic Argan Oil by Pure Body Naturals-Review



Argan Oil is really a "Must Have", "Holy Grail" beauty and skincare product that I think everyone should have as part of their beauty, skincare and hair care routines.  Pure Body Naturals sent me their 100% Organic Argan Oil to test out for them and it is has been my go to Argan Oil for the past several weeks.
The really great thing about Argan Oil is that you can literally use it for everything, like your entire body kind of everything!  My favorite way to use Argan Oil is to apply it at night as an all over body moisturizer right after I get out of the shower or bath.  My skin stays super soft & moisturized for at least 24 hours if not longer.  I also like to apply to my face at night as a sleep mask and when I wake up my skin is well hydrated and even has a little glow to it.  It also works great on hair, just apply a little to the ends of damp hair to help heal any damage and tame flyaways!


Go to PureBodyNaturals.com for more information on some of their other great products and also go to Amazon.com to purchase the 100% Organic Argan Oil by Pure Body Naturals!

 Plus, Pure Body Naturals has a pretty amazing Lifetime 100% Money Back Guarantee if you are not 100% satisfied in anyway just send them an email and they will refund you in FULL, and there is no need to even return the bottle!

Youth Express Eye Serum by InstaNatural-Review



I think I am beginning to sound like a broken record but I seriously LOVE InstaNatural products!  I have been using their new Youth Express Eye Serum that they sent me and of course I have been loving it!  
Not only does the Youth Express Eye Serum work great but the nice, cool serum feels amazing when you put it on & it also smells like a fresh picked orange. (Tip: keep it in the fridge for an extra cooling effect!).  The serum has an orange tint to it but it's lightweight and your skin quickly absorbs it and it wears perfectly under makeup.
The Youth Express Eye Serum contains a powerful combination of Vitamin C, Plant Stem Cells, Astanxanthin, Kojic Acid, Caffeine, Hyaluronic Acid which helps lock in moisture, diminish dark circles, puffiness and fine lines.

Skin, Hair & Nails Vitamin Complex by uShine-Review


*Skin, Hair & Nails Vitamin Complex by UShine

I have been so impressed with this Skin, Hair & Nail supplement that Ushine sent me to test out & review for them!  I've just been taking 2 capsules a day for the last few weeks and I am amazed at how much my nails have grown, even my hair seems to be a little longer!  I like to imagine that I have really nice nails but the truth is I just don't.  My hands & nails tend to be pretty dry in general & my nails are forever breaking off and I am constantly putting on hand & nail creams.  Since taking this supplement my nails have not only grown longer but they have also become a lot stronger and are not breaking off as much as they did before.

uShine contains Vitamin C, D and B complex vitamins in right proportions that support healthy hair, nails & healthy skin.  So, if you have weak, brittle nails or hair I would highly recommend this supplement!
Go to Amazon.com to grab your own bottle of uShine!

If you are in the market for a moisturizer that does a little of everything then this one that InstaNatural sent me to review for them would be a great option!  The InstaNatural Retinol Moisturizer with Vitamin C has does everything you would want a skincare product to do.  It contains Jojoba Oil, Hyaluronic Acid, and Shea Butter so your skin is well hydrated and Retinol so it helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation.  The Retinol also helps remove dead skin cells that can clog pores so it also helps you maintain a more clear & smooth complexion.  All those benefits are packed into this one little moisturizer!  It's also lightweight & absorbs really quickly so I use it as part of both my morning and evening skincare routines and I have noticed that my skin is more clear, and even toned and of course, well hydrated!

I am a HUGE fan of InstaNatural products and have had the chance to test out most of them and I highly recommend trying out this or any other product.  Go to InstaNatural.com for more information or to purchase the Retinol Moisturizer with Vitamin C.  You can also purchase on Amazon.com.

Pure Rose Water by Skin Daily Skincare Solutions-Review



I love me some Rose Water and this one that Skin Daily Skincare Solutions sent to review for them not only works really well it also smells really amazing!  Pure Rose Water is one of those skincare products that I would choose to take with me if I could only take a few beauty/skincare items.
Pure Rose Water is a multi-tasking product that can cleanse, tone and hydrate the skin.
I use it primarily as a toner in both my morning and evening skincare routines after I wash my face.  The Rose Water soothes my skin, balances it out and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated.
Pure Rose Water is made by distilling rose petals in pure spring water.  Nothing else is added to it, it's just 100% Pure Rose Water, no alcohol to dry your skin, and no preservatives, only pure rosey goodness!  Love it!

LAVO Microdermabrasion Cream Exfoliating Scrub-Review



You all know that I LOVE a good exfoliating scrub and this one that LAVO sent me to review for them is awesome!  The LAVO Microdermabrasion Cream Exfoliating Scrub is super creamy with little crystals that buff away at dead skin cells.
I like to use this scrub at least twice a week and I usually make it part of my nightly routine.  I apply the scrub to my clean, damp face and gently massage product into skin for about 2 minutes.  What am I left with?  Amazingly smooth and soft skin!  It will also help reduce fine lines & pore size, help decrease acne scars, blemishes, sun damage, and other scarring for glowing skin.

Go to lavoskin.com for more information on the LAVO Microdermabrasion Cream Exfoliating Scrub and their other products.  I have also been using the LAVO Deep Cleansing Oil and it is fantastic as well!  You can also purchase straight from Amazon.com.

Peptide Complex Serum by Foxbrim-Review



Foxbrim is another one of my favorite skincare companies that have some pretty fantastic products.  They recently sent me their Peptide Complex Serum to test out and review for them and it has become one of my favorite products in my skincare routine.  
This Peptide Complex Serum is full of skin loving ingredients like, Peptides, Hyaluronic Acid, Witch Hazel and Jojoba Oil and they all help heal and repair your skin.
I have been using the serum primarily on my neck, decollete and shoulder area since I was testing out a few other products on my face and have had some great results.  I don't really have any wrinkles...yet... but I do have those annoying neck lines that most people have and it seems like those have actually faded a little bit, plus the skin in my decollete area looks more toned as well!  The serum is lightweight and absorbs really quickly and is great for all skin types.


Go to Foxbrim.com to check out some of the other products they have to offer and got to Amazon.com to purchase the Peptide Complex Serum (make sure you look up the other reviews I've done for Foxbrim products by using the search feature on my blog).

BioGanix Pure Caralluma Fimbriata-Review


I just recently discovered this supplement a few months ago and I have kept it as part of supplement routine ever since!  The Pure Caralluma Fimbriata that BioGanix sent me to review for my blog is excellent quality and I have had great results with it.  Caralluma is an herb that contains pregnane glycosides, (whatever the heck that is!) which helps block an enzyme that produces fat.  As with all the supplements I take this one is also all natural, safe, with no filler, binders, no GMO's or stimulants and no side effects.
The Pure Caralluma Fimbriata by BioGanix has given me some much needed extra energy and has also helped control my appetite.  This was a little life saver during the holidays!!


Go to bioganix.com for more information on the other products that they offer and you can purchase the Pure Caralluma Fimbriata on Amazon.com.

Age-Defying Retinol Serum by InstaNatural-Review



InstaNatural has done it again!  InstaNatutal is one of my favorite brands and the Age-Defying Retinol Serum that they sent me to review is another great product to add to the growing list!  This serum makes a great addition to any skincare routine because it is packed with the ingredients we have all come to know and love.  Not only does it contain Retinol but it also has Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid and also Vitamin E.  All of those ingredients make for a powerful little serum that will help protect against the signs of aging, reduce the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, dark circles and hyperpigmentation, smooths & evens complexion.  The serum works for all skin types.
I like to use this serum as part of my nighttime skincare routine.  I apply to a clean face after I have used my toner and like to apply it when my skin is still a little damp.  The serum is really lightweight as sinks into your skin really quickly.  I love that this is a multi-tasking product that helps with all of my skin issues!

I have tried a lot of other InstaNatural products and I have really loved them all and I highly recommend them.  (make sure you look up all my other reviews on InstaNatural products by using the search feature on my blog)

Fitness Friday***New Series***

Fitness Friday

Happy Fitness Friday and Welcome to my new series which will replace Tone It Up Tuesday's.  I will still be doing posts about the Tone It Up girls simply because I find them inspiring but I will also be including other workout guru info, workouts, supplements that I am taking and anything else fitness related.  If there is something specific you would like to see a post about just leave me a comment below.
I decided to change it up a bit because 2014 was a rough year and I totally fell off the fitness wagon.  I had a lot of back issues that left me unable to workout for months at a time.  I am finally feeling like I can hit it pretty hard so I wanted to get 2015 off to a good start and the Tone It Up girls are doing their annual Love Your Body Challenge so I thought I would start out with sharing some info about it.  (Plus, there are prizes involved and who doesn't love prizes?)



The Love Your Body Challenge is a 45-day, 100 Mile challenge to get you in shape by Valentine's Day.  This year Katrina & Karena promise that we will workout harder than we ever have, all we need to do is fully commit to ourselves and our dreams!  It’s an average of 2.2 miles per day. You can walk them or jog, run, stairmill, swim, elliptical, whatever type of workout you want to do.  Here are a few examples:
Biking: Divide your miles by 3. ex. 9 miles = 3 miles
Swimming: multiply by 3! ex. 1 mile swim = 3 miles
Beach Babe DVD: 40 minute HIIT = 4 miles


So, set your goals, get organized and take your before pics!  Get the full details here and make sure you sign up! #LoveYourBody


Yalmeh Glorify Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion-Review



I have been loving all the products that Yalmeh has sent me to test out and review for them!  The most recent one is the Yalmeh Glorify Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion.  If you follow my blog then you already know that I think Vitamin C is a "must have", "holy grail" product to have in your skincare routine.  That's what makes the Yalmeh Glorify Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion a perfect addition!  It's a powerful antioxidant, it protects and prevents the formation of free radicals in sun exposed skin.  It also helps lighten spots, discoloration, refines skin texture and reduces wrinkle formation as well as existing wrinkles.
As usual, I always apply my serums, oils, creams & lotions to my face, neck, decollete and even my shoulders.  I have also been using this on my hands as well!  I am really bad about being neglectful of my hands (even though I have loads of hand products), I just always forget so I have been trying to just apply what is left over to top of my hands at the very least.  The lotion is really lightweight so it absorbs really easily & completely into the skin and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated and not at all greasy.  It also wears really nice under makeup.
Get more information on all the Yalmeh products at Yalmeh.com and you can also purchase the Yalmeh Glorify Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion on Amazon.com.

Beautonics Derma Roller-Review ***


I think the Derma Roller has become my favorite beauty tool, next to my Clairsonic!  Beautonics sent me their Derma Roller to test out and review for them and it has helped keep my skin clear, diminish old blemish scars and has also helped get rid of my hyperpigmentation.  I love this thing!
I use the Derma Roller on a nice clean face but before I apply my skincare products.  I love how you can feel all your skincare products skin deep into your skin after using the Derma Roller.  I really think it makes all skincare products way more effective.  You also only need to use it about once every 2 week but I tend to use mine more often than that.
What is a Derma Roller?  A Derma Roller is a skin needling device with many small surgical needles. Derma Rollers come in needle lengths between 0.13 and 3 mm. The needle diameter (thickness) is approximately 0.25 mm at their base.  This Derma Roller is a 1 mm.  Does it hurt?  Not really, but you can definitely feel the needles going into your skin!  However, it is well worth it!

If you are serious about your skincare then I highly recommend you add a Derma Roller to your routine!  For more information and to purchase the Beautonics Derma Roller go to Amazon.com.
