MagiCream Neck & Face Wrinkle Cream by Asana Beauty.  This is another nice facial cream.  I had no negative issues from it and it was not greasy to the touch.  My skin soaked this right up.  The only con I can see at this point is I am going through it really fast.  It does have a pretty strong scent, but it is a pleasant scent so I had no issues with it.  If someone has issues with smells though you might want to keep in mind this is scented.

CSCS Advanced Face Serum 20% Vitamin C + E Ferulic Acid 1oz #CSCSferulicacid

 I am sharing with you today another product by CSCS.  This one is their Advanced Face Serum with 20% vitamin C & E, Ferulic Acid Serum.

I like this.  I feel a tightening to my skin when using it.  The serum is on the thicker side which I also like.  A lot of the C serums I have used are really thin and watery, so thicker is good in my opinion.  It just doesn't seem like I use as much and it doesn't go all over the place.



My skin soaked this right up and it was not sticky which is another thing I have found with C serums is some of them tend to be on the sticky side

I applied this straight out of the shower and also would reapply it before I went to bed.  My skin is very sensitive and I had no issues with this product at all.

Today I am going to share with you one of my favorite things to use and that is Essential Oils.  I love them!!  I have always used strictly NOW products essential oils in the past.  I have been contacted by other companies recently though to try their products and I have been extremely pleased.

This one is by GoPure.  They sent me a bottle in exchange for a honest review.

I love it!!  It smells awesome.  They have a glass eye dropper with theirs which I REALLY like the convenience of that.  I tend to use "too much" without them.

Lavender Oil has been an essential item in our household for the past 22 years.  It reversed the venom effects of a recluse spider bite and has been a shelf staple in my household ever since.

If anyone gets bit by any kind of bug (including mosquitoes) I am pulling out the lavender oil and applying it to the bite like ASAP!!!!!

There are so many wonderful uses for this oil you don't even want to get me started.  Helps Improve Mood, Helps fight Insomnia, Calms the Mind and also helps neutralize Stress and Anxiety.

If you have a child who is fussy and not feeling good -- put a couple drops on their sleeper and it will relax them.  I have done this many a time!!

I definitely recommend you checking out this oil.  Country of origin is Bulgaria.
You can grab your own bottle here and don't just take my word for it -- check out the other reviews on Amazon!!!

Enjoy!!!!!

Mark You Calendars -- Tax Free Weekends



I know it is something we become so used to paying we automatically add it on to our totals in our heads.  In Citrus County it is 6%, but the tax rate here in Florida really varies depending on where you are at. 

I know when I have visited over by Disney and got my total on my bill it would throw me because I was used to adding 6% in my head and I paid 8% over there.  It is amazing how much difference even that 2% can throw your figures when you are calculating in your head.  I am scanning my receipt at the end going -- what just happened and sure enough bottom line (tax) was higher.

So.........

If you have any big purchases coming up might want to schedule them for the tax free weekends in your area!!

Check them out here

Florida is not on the list yet, but rumor has it -- it will be in August.

100% Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum 2oz #cscs




Hey -- Wanted to share another product with all of you. 

This is a Pure Hyaluronic Serum.  It is suppose to improve roughness and add hydration to the skin.  It is on the thicker side when you drop it on your fingers.  I had no problem with it running all over the place like some of my serums have done which I feel like is a plus.  I use about 4-6 drops for my whole face and neck.  Once it dries you can feel a tightening feel to your skin, but it is not uncomfortable.

I have used this and at times have not even had to add a moisturizer which is a good thing.  Even though it tightens it doesn't feel like a drying tightening -- I hope that makes sense.  The serum is non greasy which I like as well.



The bottle says to use it twice daily.  Once in the morning and once in the evening.  I have mainly been just doing the morning on mine.  My wrinkles didn't get here overnight so they are not going to magically disappear overnight - LOL


Ingredients : De-ionized Water, Sodium Hyaluronate, Isothiazolinones as preservative.

Here is some additional information straight from the company

NATURAL & ORGANIC; the CSCS Hyaluronic Acid Serum has been formulated with high-quality hyaluronic acid that has been scientifically proven to possess fill-in properties to help improve skin texture and brightness for a youthful, radiant appearance.

100% USDA Organic Ultra Hydrating Face Moisturizer #trynouveauorganica




Hello everyone!!  Well it has been a noisy rumbly day and I wasn't sure I should even be on my computer, but it has settled down outside now and I wanted to get some more reviews out there for you.

I was contacted by NOUVEAU/ORGANICA to try out their Ultra Hydrating Facial Moisturizer.  It is 100% Organic and Vegan.  YAY!!  Good for the body!!

When I first got this in I had to put it in the refrigerator because it was totally liquid.  It didn't take long to set up though and in my house for the most part it stays pretty solid





This is not a moisturizer I can use in the mornings and I don't even know that it is meant to be.  I have extremely dry skin and I still have not figured out the correct amount to use for daily use without it looking shiny on my skin.  At night -- no problem -- no one sees it - LOL and I use it pretty generously.  My hair is greasy by morning from it, but that does not worry me because I know it has to be awesome for the hair as well.  Nothing a quick shower doesn't rectify.

Maybe I am so used to my other moisturizers and the amounts I use with them I may be just still over doing it for the daytime.  It is extremely hydrating and the list of ingredients are awesome!!



I do not care for the smell on this one the way it comes and I added rosemary or lavender oil when using it.  I like it that way.  According to their site it has a [Light, Natural Scent] No added fragrance or strong scent, especially great for babies and children.  My personal preference was to add the essential oils like I mentioned above.

The jar says to use a pea size amount when applying and to use more if your skin is dry.  So, this little 2 oz bottle is going to last a long time for me even though I have dry skin (although it is getting much better).  Especially since as I previously mentioned I will only use it at bedtime.

Here is some more technical information straight from the company

If you are a GUY -- Leave the room -- this post is JUST FOR THE LADIES #diamondcup


Ok, this is a different type of post than I normally get into.  I will warn you right off the bat it is a bit on the gross side - even for the ladies.  As my title states this post is "Just for the ladies" -- Guys if you are reading this you can exit now.......
 

I have always been more on the "private side" when it comes to this subject so if I wasn't so concerned about the subject to help others I would just keep it to myself and my family.

Ok -- All guys should have left the room already -- if you are still here -- Scat!!!!!  What is wrong with you -- you are not invited!!!!!

Isn't it funny how the brain works when someone tells you "you can't read something" all the sudden you want to stay for the entire thing even if you have normally only ready 2 lines of every other post on this blog because they are boring - LOL!!!



I was contacted a couple weeks ago from Tiger Elite to try their product The Diamond Cup.  I was initially a bit turned off, but after doing some extensive research I decided to give it a try.





I guess I have long been aware of the chemicals that are in feminine products, but have never thought about them seeping into the pores of the skin and into our bodies and thus contaminating us with chemicals we would not want to have any part of.

I have family members that have had allergic reactions to pads for a long time.  Because of their allergies to these products they have never even attempted tampons.  Between that and the TSS issue I have never liked to use them, but have when necessary.




The product I was sent was a reusable menstrual cup.  I had attempted one of these years and years ago and it was a no go!!  I don't even remember the brand, but it is was extremely uncomfortable and annoying and I had to immediately remove it.

This cup after boiling and sanitizing was soft and I didn't even notice it after the initial insertion which I will admit has an extreme learning curve to it which I don't think I have mastered yet.  They have 2 different sizes.  One size is for women who have had children and one is for women who have not.  They are made of medical grade German engineered silicone.


 I used the C fold, but there are a couple other folds I have found out about since using it that I am going to attempt next time to see if it might be easier.


I was actually truly surprised using this.  Once inserted (you do not insert these as far as you do a tampon) I didn't even feel it!!  I experienced no leakage whatsoever which actually really surprised me.


Even through the night -- no leaks!!  The first couple of days during the day I emptied way more often than I would have even had to - just because I was not familiar with them and was basing it on how often I normally had to change a tampon.  So, that in itself made it more uncomfortable then it would have had to be since the worse part is the insertion - LOL!!  Also want to mention that I usually had some leakage with my tampons and always had to use a liner with them as well and they (tampons) in my opinion are very very uncomfortable.

Here is a little info from the company

The Diamond Menstrual Cup is a safe, effective and economical alternative to traditional pads or tampons.  Average woman will spend over $2400 on sanitary products and use over 11,000 tampons in their life.  this product can be used for up to 15 years with proper care. made of medical grade German engineered silicone. Comes complete with a beautiful tiffany style box and bag for storage.  Plus, our company donates and contributes to organizations who provide sanitary feminine hygiene for women in third world countries who are shamed or abused due to their period. 

Back to me and my opinion

Once you get past the ooh gross part of having to rinse it out every few hours - it actually eliminates the grossness of having pads in the trash can.

They state that you can wear it for up to 12 hours.  I have not gone this long yet, but did wear it about 8 hours overnight.  Worked great and there was no odor when cleaning and rinsing the cup!  I did find that for me it was easiest to insert it when I was in the shower.  Of course this will not always be an option, but for the most part this works out good.

So, after doing research on this, tampons and disposable sanitary products it has got me on a new line of work producing my own washable sanitary napkins and panty liners as well which I will blog about once I get the pattern mastered that I like.

Anyway -- sorry if this subject grossed all you ladies out and if there are still men in the room -- well you are just a gluton for punishment and seriously need to think about your state of mind for reading through all this!!

I was sent The Diamond Cup free of charge in exchange for my honest opinion.  I was impressed and feel like as I become more familiar with the best way of inserting I will like it even more!!
