Review: Mira-Skin Hyaluronic Serum
Monday, November 30, 2015
Although I am only in my 30's I am trying to combat wrinkles and fine lines before they come. I do not mind getting older but I definitely do not want to look it!! LOL! I was recently given the chance to sample Mira-Skin Hyaluronic Serum.
Mira-Skin™ Hyaluronic Serum is a unique combination of high-quality,
short-chained hyaluronic acid, which promotes regeneration and supplies
your skin with the following valuable nutrients and antioxidants for
ultimate hydration:
• Collagen
• MSM
• Vitamin E
• Omega 3
• Vitamin A
• CoQ10
• Frankincense
• Alpha hydroxy acid
THE POWER OF SHORT-CHAINED HYALURON PROVIDES:
· immediate, visible and natural results
· skin hydration, wrinkles filling, volume restoration
· short-chained hyaluronic acid deeply penetrates the skin and bolsters up from the inside out
· hyaluronic acid is a natural component of the skin
· 9 additional vital substances
What’s great about our hyaluronic serum?
Mira-Skin™ Hyaluronic Serum (50 ml bottle for $159) deeply moisturizes and hydrates the skin while activating collagen production. It boosts the power of your own skin care products and can be combined with them for ultimate skin hydration.
As this graph shows, hyaluron rapidly decreases as we age:
My thoughts:
I have been using the hyaluronic serum for a bit and I am impressed. The serum is very smooth and only took two drops for my entire face. I love that it dries very quickly and has no smell. It took about two weeks to see results but I am very pleased. My skin is so much softer and I have noticed less breakouts since using it. The small fine lines I have are becoming less noticeable as well.

Marie Ernst Beauty Bars
Monday, November 30, 2015
Marie Ernst™ offers an innovative two-in-one approach to beauty bars without limiting the benefits of either element. Marie Ernst™ Pumice Bars are made of 15% organic pumice, which allows a gentle exfoliation. Marie Ernst™ Moisturizing Bars are made with ingredients like olive oil, cocoa butter, shea butter and essential oils to guarantee superior hydration. Combined, the two components work as a cohesive unit to give you the ultimate sensory experience in skin care and body treatment.
The idea of two halves making a whole was inspired by yin and yang—a concept that was demonstrated by the founder David Jenkins’ parents Mary and Ernest, the company’s namesake. He witnessed the strength that they achieved as a happily married couple of over 60 years and was inspired to create a fine soap that works the same way—stronger together than apart.

NEWSFLASH: John Frieda Hair Care 2016 New Launches - Available NOW at Target.com
Tuesday, November 24, 2015
JOHN FRIEDA® COLOUR REINVENTION. RETHINK EVERYTHING.
UNIQUE BREAKTHROUGH INNOVATION THAT ALLOWS YOU TO ALTER YOUR HAIR COLOUR RIGHT IN THE SHOWER IN JUST MINUTES
These game-changing haircare innovations won’t be released by John Frieda® Hair Care
until 2016, but you can get them at Target.com for a limited time, starting today
They’re the kind of hair care innovations you dream about – products that let you wash in brighter or deeper tones in minutes, perfectly blur regrowth to give your colour extra mileage between touchups, and conjure up satiny-soft, air-dry waves you can run your fingers through. And while the majority of these products won’t be officially available until 2016, you can get these John Frieda® innovations online through a target.com presale event, starting today.
You choose the effect: With revolutionary, in-shower treatments that take your hair up to 1 shade lighter or darker for just $9.99, John Frieda® Hair Care is changing the hair-colour game.
· If you’re a natural or colour-treated blonde, the brand’s new Go Blonder In-Shower Treatment (the newest product in its celebrated Sheer Blonde® line) instantly lifts blonde hair up to 1 shade in just one wash, to help you maintain a bright, natural-looking blonde. And it works all over, softening dark roots and lightening blonde tones to give you believable, shimmering colour from root to tip. The peroxide-based lightener lifts melanin from the hair cuticle to brighten strands and is designed to be used once a month or 1-2 times between your colouring cycle.
Meanwhile, the John Frieda® hair care experts have completely reinvented its Brilliant Brunette® collection, with treatments, shampoos and conditioners that let every brunette customize the shade of her dreams – whether warm and honey toned or dark and rich – right in the shower.
· Made with a proprietary technology, New Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Brighter™ In-Shower Treatment instantly lifts brunette colour up to 1 shade, bringing out its lighter, warmer dimensions.
· As with the John Frieda® new in-shower treatment for blondes, it’s designed to be used once a month. Both formulas deliver gentle, all-over permanent lightening without radically altering your colour. Bonus: They’re refreshingly easy to use (no precise application required), with built-in toners to ensure perfect, natural-looking results.
· New Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Deeper™ In-Shower Treatment instantly darkens hair by up to 1 shade, locking in rich, cool brunette colour with dimension and shine. The semi-permanent formula can also be used to refresh fading brunette hues. Use it after shampooing, once or twice a week.
For both brunette in-shower treatments, the John Frieda® hair care experts are introducing complementary shampoos and conditioners.
· New Brilliant Brunette® Visibly Deeper™ Shampoo and Conditioner ($9.99 each) gradually infuses cool tones to keep brunette shades fresher, longer.
· Conversely, the new Visibly Brighter™ Shampoo and Conditioner ($9.99 each) gradually brighten & illuminate glowing brunette tones for a natural looking, sun-kissed glow.
· At the same time, the brand is launching an entirely new product, Root Blur™. In four palettes, it’s a temporary root cover-up that lets you blend your ideal colour match to disguise dark roots or grey regrowth instantly and seamlessly.
· And – under the brand’s legendary Frizz Ease® banner – it’s also reintroducing Dream Curls® Air-Dry Waves Styling Foam, an innovative air dry styler that gives you beautifully defined, touchable waves without a hint of crunchiness.

Review: Blade Buddy
Tuesday, November 24, 2015
I was recently given the chance to try out Blade Buddy for my blog. My husband and I both purchase a lot of razors every year.
What is Blade Buddy?
Blade Buddy maintains the sharpness of your razor blades, saving you money, reducing waste, and eliminating nicks, cuts, razor burn and ingrown hair.
Blade Buddy maintains the sharpness of your razor blades, saving you money, reducing waste, and eliminating nicks, cuts, razor burn and ingrown hair.
My thoughts:
I was so excited to try this out. Usually within a week or less of using our razors they go dull. As I am sure you know, the last thing you want to do is shave with a dull razor. I am amazed at how easy it is to use and how well it works. When you glide your razor up Blade Buddy’s micro-honing
grooved surface straightens the edge back into alignment, restoring the
sharpness of your blade. One blade gives you a consistently close and
comfortable shave, each and every shave.
It does a great job and I have been using the same razor for two weeks. I love that I will be able to save money and use it on other things my family and I need. The great thing is Blade Buddy works with all the major brands: Gillette, Schick, BIC, Dorco, Dollar Shave Club, Harry’s…

Review: QTee Leopard Love flip flops
Monday, November 23, 2015
At QTee, they believe customized apparel should be fully fashion forward. No more uncomfortable t-shirts, lame graphics or unflattering cuts. No more buying shirts the department stores pick for you each season. At QTee, you have full control. You pick the fashion, you pick the graphic and colorize each t-shirt to be exactly how you want. It’s that simple! QTee shirts are as unique as each girl’s individual closet, and that’s how fashion should be.
QTee was kind enough to give me the chance to customize a pair of flip flops. Leopard is one of my favorite prints so I chose the Leopard Love flip flops to match my leopard print shirt I already own!
My thoughts:
I LOVE my flip flops! They were kind enough to send me some black straps so that I can change them out from the white straps. QTee makes it easy to customize anything you want from flip flops, shoes, apparel, and accessories. Check out my wish list just to give you an idea of what they offer!

Review: ja-vie camouflage flats
Monday, November 23, 2015
JA-VIE offers stylish flats with superb arch support and flexibility. They are made of
patent-pending technology. These shoes combine the softest double-ply mercerized cotton knit "sock" with lightweight jelly outsoles and cushioned leather insoles. The result is a second skin fit with dynamic flexibility and maximum support for your feet. I received a pair of Camouflage Flats for review.

The result is a second skin fit with dynamic flexibility and maximum support for your feet. I received a pair of Camouflage Flats for review.
Unfortunately these flats were too small for me. I did try them on and was amazed at how comfy they are. My step daughter LOVES camouflage so I gave these flats to her. She LOVES them and has said they are very very comfy. What I love most about the flats is that they are machine washable! We live in the country and on rainy days our driveway is very nasty. All you have to do is remove the leather insoles, place the shoes in a laundry bag and launder on the cold setting, remove the shoe and line dry. When the shoes are dry just re-insert the leather insole and you are good to go! The greatest part about Ja-vie flats is that they come in solids, prints, lace, island, and gingham so I know you will find at least a pair or two that you will LOVE!

CapriClear is the ideal all-natural hypoallergenic solution to soothe and moisturize dry, flaky skin to reduce itching and irritation for people who are sensitive to ingredients commonly found in other products.
