Azure Naturals ULTIMATE RETINOL Anti Wrinkle Serum Review and Giveaway

Image
Azure Naturals ULTIMATE RETINOL Anti Wrinkle Serum! Now that I am in my 30s I started to think about using Anti-Aging products. But with so many on the market how was I to choose. Well after watching a show on TV (I won't say who), I heard Retinol was the way to go.    Retinol improves: Pigmentation Fine lines Wrinkles Skin tone  Skin texture  Color Increases your hydration levels.  What makes Retinol so great? Cellular renewal happens continuously when we're young, but as we age the skin's ability to renew itself slows down. Retinol has a very small molecular structure that allows it to deeply penetrate your skin activating collagen and elastin. Applied at night ULTIMATE Retinol will increase your skin's moisture, promoting cellular turnover and renewal. Why try Azure Naturals brand? Made in the USA With The Highest Quality Natural and Organic Ingredients Available: 97% Natural, 72% Organic. Contains No Alcohol, No Parabens, Plant

Companies that give out Freebies

Image
As many of you know I have written a few blogs about the companies that I get Freebies from. However, in the last year or so a lot has changed. Some companies I loved then have not sent anything since then. While others I disliked are now sending me tons of stuff. This blog will just contain links and names of the companies. Later this month I will review each. But this will get you started. Please note that most of these companies require you to do a few surveys in the beginning. This is of course to see what products they will send you. For example if you have only teens, they do not want you testing diapers.  Companies I have personally used or tried: Influenster-  www.influenster.com Smiley360- https://smiley.socialmedialink.com/home Crowdtap-  http://Crowdtap.com BzzAgent-  http://bzzagent.com She Speaks-  http;//shespeaks.com Klout-  http://klout.com Vocal Point-  http://vocalpoint.com       My Last Blog Post below about these sites is below.

Tasty and Easy Mexican Yellow Rice recipe. Kids love it!

Image
Easy Mexican Yellow Rice with kid friendly option. I've always made yellow rice. Most people call it Mexican rice. Either way its a family favorite. When my son was younger, he did not like that I added chopped red and green peppers. So my Best friend recommended I add corn. I could still sneak in some veggies and get him to eat it. Yellow rice pictured with homemade Pico de Gallo! Ingredients: 2 tablespoons of butter, I prefer unsalted 2 cups of white rice Long grain 4 cups of water 1 packet of Sazon with Coriander and Annatto, I like the Goya brand one.  1 cup of canned corn- drained Powder Chicken base- to taste. I usually start with whats recommended for 2 cups of rice and work my way up. Because brands vary so much. I will explain later how I decide. This is the Sazon I use. Cooking directions: In a Large pot (at least 2 quart size). Place the butter in pot on medium heat.  Once the butter starts to melt add th

I am a coffee addict. I have been drinking coffee for as long as I can remember. When I was offered to test the Java Factory variety pack and host a giveaway. I was ecstatic. I got to try some great coffee and share it with all of you.  *Please Note these cups do not work on the 2.0* The flavors included in the Java Factory Variety Pack are:  Wakey Wakey- A Light roast Smooth Caffeinator- Medium roast Dark And Handsome- An Extra Bold roast Da Bomb- Double caffeinated Extra Bold Roast Dark roast Choconut- Chocolate and Coconut flavored coffee Vanilla Dream- Vanilla and Toffee flavored coffee  My Review of each flavor:  Wakey Wakey- This is the lightest roast. I did like it but it was my least favorite. I prefer a darker roast. Smooth Caffeinator- This was the First flavor I tried. Its a great smooth coffee. This is the perfect anytime coffee. Not too bold but too light either. Hence the name medium. Haha! Dark and Handsome- What girl doesn'

Summer Sun in the middle of Winter: Glow 2 Go review and Giveaway

Image
Glow 2 Go As some of you may know I have VERY pale skin in the winter. My Mother is fair skinned with blond hair and blue eyes, and my Dad the opposite. He has the olive skin and dark features. So I have Moms skin and Dads dark hair. Id make a great Goth girl.  Every Winter I have pale pasty skin. I use to tan at a salon but I don't have the time. So when I found out I can test Therma Labs new Glow 2 Go towelettes at home, I was excited and a bit nervous. I have become streaky and orange from other tanners.  But after seeing that its the Number 1 brand on Amazon. I felt relieved.  Especially after hearing they have a 100% Money Back Guarantee. That is how confident they are you will love them. I did!  What makes Glow 2 Go a Winter Must have? It works great! A package contains 20 half body towels, instead of 10 full size. That means you get more bang for your buck. Not everyone wants a full body application especially in the Winter. I usually want just legs or

30 Day Workout Challenges 2015: Butt and Abs *Repost*

Image
     As you may know I tried this challenge last year. However, due to many factors I stopped on the 9th or 10th day. But it is a New Year and the Number 1 Resolution is weight loss I'm trying it again. I'm not going to give you the "New Year New me" speech! But it's a great time to start the Challenge! Especially since the Ab challenge is little hard to read, so starting on the first day is easier! I did choose these challenge because of the gradual increase. Which should help us both. I also picked these challenges because you get a day off every 4 days which is about when I really need it! Of course with all workout plans ask your Doctor first! But if he/she says it's ok! Join me! I personally won't be posting before and after pictures but I will give a weekly progress report!       *I also installed two new apps to help with dieting from the Play Store (I currently have an Android) 30 Day Fitness Challenges and joined Spark People.
