My Not So Perfect Lyfe

CapriClear recently gave me the chance to sample CapriClear Moisturizing Spray.
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.

My thoughts:
I love this spray and use it daily just as soon as I get out of the shower. I have also tried it a few times while shaving and it works great! It is a great natural product and works great for dry, flaky skin. I suffer with eczema and from time to time have a flare up and it has really helped my irritated skin. I love that it is colorless and odorless, doesn't stain clothes, and dries quickly.

As we find ourselves transitioning our shoes from summer sandals to sky-high stilettos, our feet are definitely feeling the wear and tear of the changing of seasons. Luckily, COMPEED- the newest solution for relieving blister pain instantly-has got us covered! I was recently given the chance to test COMPEED for myself.

It's no wonder 97% of European women who rated and reviewed COMPEED said they would recommend it to a friend, and now the products are finally available on this side of the pond.

COMPEED® Blister Cushions feature hydrocolloid technology that fits like a second skin and stays on all day long to relieve blister pain instantly. They are very easy to use and are great to carry in your purse. I went shopping one day and I could feel a blister coming so I immediately rushed to the bathroom and removed the backing and applied it to the area hurting. You just have to give a light gentle push and its on. I love them them and wish they were around years ago. COMPEED will definitely come in handy around the holidays when I am shopping. I will be sure to have some handy in my purse!

You can find COMPEED at Walgreens

This Matcha is a famous powder tea made from ground Gyokuro green tea from Izu province in Japan. Only the most precious top grade hand picked Japanese tea is used for our Matcha. It is whisked with hot water in a bowl to make a frothy healthful beverage. Match is traditionally drunk in "Japanese Tea Ceremony". This tea contains high concentration of polyphenols that have powerful antioxidant properties. A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that polyphenols may help prevent cancers, lower the risk of heart disease, and strengthen our immune system.

Some of my favorite matcha tea recipes are:

Matcha Chai Latte

• 1t chai spices: cinnamom, clove, allspice, ginger and cardamom
• 1t Matcha
• 1 cup almond milk 

 Chai in this context is a mood, a dusting of flavor to warm up your soul and palate. As always we encourage you to find your own ritual. This is our recipe improve for Matcha Chai Latte. Warm milk in a sauce pan over low heat. Add chai spices and stir occasionally until flavors express. Prepare matcha as a tea with water. Strain milk into a cup and combine with matcha. You may add your choice of sweetener at any point. Another option is to add matcha powder directly to the milk.

Matcha Tea Smoothie

• 1/2 cup yogurt
• 2 tbsp honey or sugar
• 1/2 cup ice cubes
• 1 tsp ingredient grade matcha 

 Blend ingredients together in electric blender. Pour into a tall glass.

 Southern Breeze Sweet Tea is sweet tea inspired by the South itself. Sweet as the scent of magnolias. Relaxed as a well-worn porch swing. Refreshing as a secret swimming hole. Southern Breeze Sweet Tea is a bottomless glass of hospitality and refreshment, made with real tea leaves in a bag that you hot-water brew, steep and chill. It’s everything Southern sweet tea should be and more – the sweetener is already in the bag and it’s zero calories so you can enjoy it with thirsty abandon. I received a sample of their Original Southern Breeze Sweet Tea.

My thoughts:

Sweet tea in the south is a must. I make at least a gallon of tea every other day. My husband loves it! I was hesitant if the tea would be any good since it already has sweetener in the tea bags. I will say its so nice to not have to measure sugar and it taste great each time I have made it! If you are a true tea lover then I highly suggest you try Southern Breeze Sweet Tea. You will not be disappointed!

Pure Care’s all-natural product line includes an all-purpose cleaner, glass cleaner, bathroom cleaner, a dish soap and laundry detergents with a variety of fragrances. They use essential oils such as cedar, patchouli, citronella, lemongrass, eucalyptus, citronella, and clove among others to fill your home with some of nature’s most inviting scents. These essential oils have been known to relieve stress, boost energy levels, induce relaxation and enhance mental performance. I received samples of their PureCare Air Fresheners Pure Bliss, Pure Harmony, Pure Energy – 3 pack & 100% Natural Liquid Dish Soap Made with USDA Organic Soap Berry.



All natural, non-toxic air fresheners, formulated using Mother Nature’s purest scents. Not only do their air fresheners freshen up any room, a light spritz in the air delivers unique aroma therapeutic benefits that include feelings of bliss, harmony and increased energy.

 

My thoughts: 

If you know me, you know I am a huge fan of anything that will make my home smell good. I am excited to try out these air fresheners as I have never tried any with aroma therapeutic benefits. The scents are very light and not overpowering. My favorite was the pure energy which is a sweet eucalyptus scent. I feel safer using these products and will be tossing out my aerosol cans!


Soap Berry dish soap is much more than just a powerful grease cutting, non-toxic dish soap. Soap berries (soap nuts) are very special little fruits and besides being known for their natural cleaning abilities, they’ve been us

ed for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine to treat skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis and acne. We’ve also included aloe vera, known for its centuries old medicinal qualities. The end result of this special combination is an exceptional, natural dish soap. 

 

My thoughts:

I am a sufferer of eczema so I have to be extra careful of what type of dish soap I use. One thing that I love with this soap is a little goes a long way. It did not leave my hands dried out like other dish soaps. I was also very impressed at how well the soap cut through grease. I will definitely be repurchasing more once I run out.
