Chicago Diva On A Dime

     If your wondering where I've been. Ive been having a Fibromyalgia flare up. For those who don't know. Almost a year ago I was diagnosed as having Fibromyalgia at the age of 33. I had fallen and started having pain. However, I thought the Doctor was wrong. How could I being so young have this disease? Especially after reading the symptoms, I thought that cant be me.  I just have back pain but as I paid more and more attention to my body I noticed I had quite a lot of the symptoms. As time progressed so did my symptoms. I went from pain to insomnia to chronic pain to hair loss and just hurting all over.      I think the biggest misconception is people say is: "well you look ok". Of course I do! Its not like Fibro is a rash everyone can see. Its inside your body, which makes some people doubt the severity. At least for me on a bad day. It hurts worst then the 2 days of labor I was in for my son. Trust me its that BAD!!!   ...

As a member of Influenster I received the Jadore Voxbox, with Boots Botanic Ionic Clay Mask in it. This is my first time trying their products. However, I do use masks quite frequently.      So what did I think of this product? Its great.

     As a member of Influencer I received the Dove Vox box. So what was in my Vox box you may ask? It was Dove Advanced care deodorant with nutrium moisture. I was wondering what the big deal about the moisturizer was. I mean it is for your arm pits. Well what I didnt know is 36% of what you remove when you shave is skin. WHAT? Over a 1/3 of that is skin you mean? Wow!      So after shaving I started using the Dove and I have to say my skin looks smoother and after. And now after 3 shavings I do notice a difference. Its amazing how great it looks. Thank you dove and Influencer.

     The people of Skin & Co were nice enough to let me try their new line of anti-aging products before they hit the market. It is known as the New Truffle Therapy Anti-Aging Skin and Body Care line. Skin & Co used luxurious Umbrian truffles for this line. Yes rare Italian Truffles plus hyluronic acid, shea butter, argan Oil and panthenol in these new products. So what does all that do you may ask? I know I did... It neutralizes free radicals, that lead to age damage and wrinkles. Also it repairs past damage and stops future damage to your skin.      The products I received are Truffle therapy face cream and truffle therapy serum for the face. They also make gommage and a cleansing foam as part of the anti-aging skincare line.  For their body care line I was sent Truffle Therapy body gel and body milk.           Truffle Therapy Face Cream ($68.00) is proof that sometimes us divas should splurge on our ...

     As a member of Klout I received a Klout perk from Freeman beauty, it was three packages of their facials. Cucumber facial peel off mask, Avocado & Oatmeal facial clay mask, and Charcoal and black sugar facial polishing mask were the three varieties. The idea of the #MymultiMask was to try different masks on different parts of your face. For example use one for oily skin on your Tzone and a renewal one on the rest of your face.       I seen so many good things about the Charcoal and black sugar facial polishing mask that I tried that on it's own. It won an award thru Allure magazine even. So I wanted to see how good it is... I have to say my face felt amazing after it! My skin was softer then it felt in a long time and even my dry areas felt great. I will be picking up a large size bottle soon. Yes it's that good.      I did avocado and oatmeal mask with the cucumber mask. I used the avocado mask on my Tzone and the cucumber mask...
