Lumina Skin Lightening, Illuminating and Soothing Facial Serum


Lumina Skin Lightening, Illuminating and Soothing Facial Serum ($29.00, https://www.amazon.com/Lightening-Illuminating-Serum-Anti-Ageing-Preventing-Luminescence/dp/B00HKX2NUK)

I had a really hard time getting this serum to work for me. Whether I used it on damp skin after cleansing, or dry skin, I just could not get this to rub in completely, it always ended up leaving my face really greasy, which is a bummer because I really wanted this to work for me. As far as I can tell, it did not make any difference in my skin. I had tried another product from this company that I really liked, so I was bummed when I could not get this to work. But just because it did not work for me, does not mean it won't work for you, as every person's skin is different, so you never know.

I received this product free of charge, in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

New York Biology 100% Pure & Natural Tea Tree Essential Oil


New York Biology 100% Pure & Natural Tea Tree Oil ($12.50, https://www.amazon.com/Tree-terpenin-4-ol-Australia-100%25-Natural/dp/B01IG3UGF6/ref=sr_1_11?m=A3K94VWQ8DVMOE&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1470327949&sr=1-11)

You can do so many things with this oil. Use it on acne, to get rid of skin tags, or to get rid of dandruff. It can also be used as an all-purpose cleaner, and it helps with bug bites.

I am currently using it to help clear acne at the moment. I just soak some tissue in the tea tree oil, then dab it on my face wherever I have a blemish. The liquid is really runny, and the smell is really strong and lingers, but it goes away eventually. It also kind of has a cooling sensation, so I guess that's how you know that it's working. I really like how this product was not tested on animals, and that it came in a dark glass bottle, so as to preserve the oil. It also comes with a dropper, making it easier to apply the tea tree oil wherever needed. In my opinion this is a well-made product, and I look forward to exploring how it can be used in the future.

New York Biology 100% Pure & Natural Peppermint Essential Oil



I decided to jump on the essential oil bandwagon, and the first oil I chose to try was New York Biology 100% Pure & Natural Peppermint Essential Oil, ($14.50, https://www.amazon.com/Peppermint-Essential-Mentha-Furan-Natural/dp/B01IG494QC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1470332686&sr=8-1&keywords=peppermint+essential+oil)

This oil is very versatile and can be used for many things. 

 -it can be used to make an excellent bug repellent, mosquitos especially hate the smell of peppermint oil

 -it can be used to help to relieve indigestion, just rub 3-5 drops of it over your stomach and sound your navel

 -it can be used to help reduce symptoms associated with heartburn or acid reflux, just a drop into distilled water, or add it to a cup of tea

 -it can be used to help relieve headaches, just rub a drop on your temples, forehead or the back of your neck

I ended up using it as a natural energy pick-me-up. I was getting pretty sleepy in the afternoon, so I dabbed a drop on my nose and the back of my neck. And you know what? It worked! I stopped feeling sleepy, and felt more alert.

In my opinion, this is another quality product from New York Biology. I trust their products. Every time I get a product from them, it is always top quality, and this time was no different.

I received this product free of charge for my honest opinion.

I Max Wrinkle Reducing & Lifting Cream Review


I got this cream because I was curious to see if having EGF in a face cream would make it work any better than the creams that I had already tried in the past that did not have any EGF in them. EGF or epidermal growth factor, is a polypeptide that may help increase collagen production.

The directions say to apply this to cleansed skin and massage it in for 2-3minutes, so I set a timer for two minutes and massage away. I think it really helps to massage your face for at least one minute. I have tried other creams in the past where I did not massage them in at all, I just applied them and let them dry, but with this cream I feel that the massaging really helps it to penetrate more. I have only used this for a little while, but I am starting to see results. In my opinion, this cream really does work. The longer you use it, the better your results will be.

Secure-Tots Magnetic Safety Locks Review


I absolutely love these child safety locks from Secure-Tots! This kit comes with four magnetic locks, that can either be applied with double-sided stick tape or self-tapping screws, and a magnetic key that also has double-sided stick tape so it can be safely stored out of reach when you're not using it. Mine is on my fridge.



The best part is, is that you don't even need to have handles on your doors, in order to use these. And installation is a breeze. You just line up the magnetic lock and key and install them wherever you want to on your cabinet door, then just use the key to lock the cabinets and you're good to go. Everything is concealed and nothing is exposed on the outside, so your little one is not tempted to mess with your cabinets. I definitely recommend these to anyone who is looking for a quick and easy way to child-proof their cabinets. *I received this product free of charge, in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.*

OmniGreen Labs Dietary Fiber Supplement Review


The recommended total dietary fiber intake is 25-30 grams a day. And I know that I don't get anywhere near that amount, so I am always on the lookout for a dietary fiber supplement that will help me to reach that goal. It has to be able to dissolve completely, not affecting the taste of whatever beverage I put it in, and it also has to be effective. And that's exactly what OmniGreen Labs fiber powder does. Not only does it dissolve completely, leaving no clumps behind, but it's also very effective at getting things going.    
  
It come with it's own little scoop, making it super convenient to use. Just scoop out one spoonful, let it dissolve, and you're good to go. Best part is, it does not affect the taste of your beverage. I just add it to plain water, and it does not make it taste any different. You can't even tell that I added anything to my water.  

This is such a fast and convenient way to add more fiber to your daily diet. And you can start out small, just using one scoop a day until you get used to it. I did not experience any discomfort while taking this, but if you have a sensitive stomach, you could start out with just a half a scoop a day, working your way up to a full scoop a day. I recommend this fiber supplement, I think it does a nice job at helping you to achieve your daily fiber goals. *I received this product free of charge, in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.*
