Pure Resveratrol Extract by Island Vibrance



I recently read about the importance of taking Resveratrol to help support Anti-Aging so of course I had to try it our for my self and see what all the fuss was about!  First I did a little research and found out that there is compound called Polyphenols that is found in the skin and seeds of red grapes as well as some other fruits and berries which is what makes up Resveratrol.  Polyphenols are not only great for your overall heath but are also an effective supplement for anti-aging, rejuvenation of the skin and is also known to help with acne issues.
I've been taking the Pure Resveratrol Extract by Island Vibrance for a few weeks now and while skin seems more supple it's hard for me to pinpoint if that's a result of my skincare products or the supplement.  However, since this supplement is 100% safe and natural and contains zero fillers or artificial ingredients I am going to to continue to take it as part of my everyday supplement/skincare routine.  After all, great skin starts from within and I'm going to let the Pure Resveratrol Extract works it's magic!  Plus, I also read that it helps burn extra calories!  Bonus little side effect if you ask me!
You can purchase on islandvibrance.com (their Coconut Colon Detox is great too!) or Amazon.com...

Peppermint Oil has has a lot of different uses and it has become a staple in my skincare routine and my go-to remedy for headaches.  When using any essential oil I recommend that you use the highest possible purity and grade like this Pure Peppermint Essential Oil by goPURE Naturals.

For my headaches I like blend the Pure Peppermint Essential Oil with some Franctionated Coconut Oil and put in a Rollerball Bottle so whenever I feel a headache coming on I can just place a little on my temples and my headaches usually subsides within a few minutes.  Or, I also use it on my neck & shoulders if they are feeling stiff and stressed to the relive pain and tension.

There is no need to use harsh chemicals to get rid of wrinkles when you can use Hyaluronic Acid!
Hyaluronic Acid is naturally occurring in the human body and babies are actually born with a high level of Hyaluronic Acid which is what makes their skin so plump and smooth.

Argan Oil by goPURE Naturals



I talk about Argan Oil all the time here on the blog.  It is simply a "Must Have", "Holy Grail" product and should be a part of everyone's beauty and skincare routines.
There are a few things that identify a good quality Argan Oil like this one from goPure Naturals.  It should be from Morocco (it's endemic to Morocco anyway) and it should be 100% pure & certified Organic like this one from goPure Naturals.
Argain Oil is non-greasy and does not irritate the skin and can be used to hydrate hair, skin, nails and even cracked heels!  It can even be used on oily, acne-prone skin.  That's why Argan Oil is also known as "Liquid Gold", there are just so many uses for it.  It's seriously amazing stuff that I use everyday!
Believe it or not Moroccans also use Argan Oil to dip bread in or drizzle on pasta.  I have yet to consume Argan Oil but it's definitely something that is on my to do list!
Go to cleopatraschoice.com to grab a bottle of this Argan Oil by goPURE Naturals or you can also purchase on Amazon.com...

Jojoba Oil is one of those oils that you see as an added ingredient in a lot of skincare & hair care products and for good reason.  It's known for it's great "balancing properties" which makes it a perfect for use in skincare products because it can effectively balance human oil production by signaling to your body if more is needed or by supplying ample moisture.  It can be used by itself as a cleanser, makeup remover or a moisturizer for your face and the rest of your body.  It also works great as a treatment for signs of aging, acne, psoriasis and eczema.  Jojoba Oil works wonders on the hair and can be used as a deep conditioner.
This Organic Jojoba Oil from Foxbrim is exceptional quality.  I have very oily skin and I have been using it as a makeup remover, pre-cleanse wash and as a moisturizer and I've been loving the results.  It definitely leaves my skin well balanced, soft and hydrated.  The Jojoba Oil is lightweight and absorbs quickly when used as a moisturizer.  I have also been using it to treat my split-ends and help smooth out flyaways!

Fitness Friday-21 Day Fix & Tone It Up


Happy Fitness Friday!  
I am finally getting back on track after being sick for what seemed like EVER and my girlfriend and I decided to do the "21 Day Fix" to get back in the swing of things.  Naturally, I consulted Pinterest and started a "21 Day Fix" board so I will continue grow that board as I find valuable and relevant pins.  I found a few really good pins from healthyrevenge.com (see above) so that's a really great website to check out if you are interested!
Also, I did a blog post awhile ago..."Using Pinterest To Stay In Shape" and then I have a "Food" board which I use it to pin healthy recipes that help me stay on track too.  (Beware...there are also some not-so-healthy recipes on my Food board!).

I am also really excited that Tone It Up started their Bikini Series so I signed up for that as well and they just released a new workout video, The Mermaid Workout so make you check that out too...




Are you getting back on track and getting ready for Summer too?  What is your go-to Fitness & Weight Loss plan?  I would love to hear about it so leave me a comment below...
