Disclosure: I received complimentary product for review purposes. However, all opinions expressed here are my own.

Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum 

We all want our skin to be be fresh and brighter to give it a youthful glow. Especially after the long winter my skin seems kind of dull and it could use something to brighten it up and improve my circulation.

The Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum comes in a beautiful box and contains a 1.18 brown glass bottle with a convenient pump dispenser. I was happy to see that it has a brown glass bottle which helps protect the serum when exposed to light. This serum is great in that it is suitable for all skin types- whether it is oily or dry.

By regularly using Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum the product is known to renew texture and tone, minimizes fine lines, increase elasticity, brighten and plump. deeply moisturize your skin, and even hyper-pigmentation.

I love the effective natural and organic ingredients in this luxurious serum which work together to revitalize your skin's complexion. Below are some of the key ingredients that you will find in the serum.

Gotu Kola: Lessens the appearance of scars and increases skin firmness

Lactic Acid: A natural Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) that increases skin cell turnover, for healthier renewed skin.

Licorice: Lightens unwanted pigmentation and corrects skin discoloration

Argan Oil: Naturally rich in Vitamin E, this oil reduces water loss and protects skin's resiliency and elasticity

To use all you to is pump one or two squirts of the serum and apply to your facial skin after cleansing. First of all, this serum has a kind of light citrus-like scent which is not strong or overwhelming. The serum itself has a creamy like texture which does glide on my skin and absorbs in seconds. It makes my skin smoother right away, without feeling oily or greasy, After using the serum it is recommended to follow-up with a moisturizer which I've been doing.

It's been a little over a week since I've been enjoying using this serum from Valentia. I haven't had any irritation or problem with it at all. I love how it makes my face more glowing and not as dull looking as it was before.

#Amazingly Beautiful Facial A.M. and P.M. Review + Giveaway!

3 winners will receive a bottle of the Amazingly Beautiful Facial A.M.

In the past I never really gave it much thought about what type of ingredients are in any beauty or skin care product. But there are chemicals that are included in lots of skin care products which is scary when you think of it. I've become more aware about the products I use and tend to read and learn more about their ingredients.
.
Amazingly Beautiful Facial A.M. and P.M. face oil serums are 100% natural and pure so there's no worry about anything artificial in them. They include a rare combination of live fruit, nut and plant extracts. These are cold pressed botanical oils of almond, orange, lime, lemon, olive and avocado. The oils feed your skin cells and reveal more youthful and glowing skin.

I was recently gifted with a set of Amazingly Beautiful Facial A.M. and P.M. face oil serums from Trusted Health Products. When I received the box it came securely packaged with a pretty purple ribbon (my favorite color no less) and a personal note inside of the box which was so nice. You also get a custom made label on the bottles with your name printed right on it. This makes you feel extra special and unique!

First of all these products smell so good which make it a pleasure to use. They come in dark colored glass bottles which help to preserve the oils. The white labeled serum is the day face oil serum and the purple labeled serum is for the evening. Below are the ingredients which are included in each serum:

A. M. Ingredients: 100% Pure Botanical oils of almond, orange, lemon, avocado and olive.

P. M. Ingredients: 100% Pure Botanical oils of almond, orange, lemon, evening primrose and apricot.

I've followed the instructions which are to place 2 to 3 drops in your palm and gently spread over your face and neck area. It is not recommended to rub into your skin but apply in a circular motion. It takes a few minutes for your pores to fully absorb the serum. If you use too much you can blot it with a tissue or cloth. The serum can also be used as a makeup remover which I didn't try as yet but is something I'm going to have to try also.

 I haven't had any blemish breakout, but if this does occur it means that your skin is ridding itself of toxins that have accumulated from using chemical laden cosmetics and skin care products. So far I've been using the serums for 4 days and haven't had any adverse reaction but am very happy with the results. My skin feels supple, smooth and more lovely!

For the men in your life Trusted Health Products has a collection which is called The Man! It is also personalized with the user's name as the set which I received are.

Both of these sets would be a great gift idea for Christmas or any other occasion!

Check out Trusted Health Products on their website and on Facebook.

Retseliney Advanced Retinol Moisturizer + Advanced Retinol Serum ~ #Review

Retseliney Advanced Vegan Organic Retinol Moisturizer + Advanced Retinol Serum ~ #Review

I love using organic and natural products, especially when they are going onto my skin. Who wants to put nasty chemicals with names you can't pronounce on your body? Not me, that's for sure. I've become so much more aware of the ingredients in products and definitely want what's better for my body. 

 Reseliney Advanced Retinol Moisturizer

 Reseliney Advanced Retinol Moisturizer is a product that has a high 2.5% concentration of Retinol (Vitamin A). As you may or may not know, Retinol is helpful in reducing the appearance of those pesky wrinkles and fine lines that seem to crop up. I'm all for that, because I've noticed a few of these in the last few years and want to ward them off as much as I can.

Some of the other ingredients in this moisturizer are Vitamin E and Green Tea. These are great antioxidants and have been known to reduce cell damage and and fight free radicals. Vitamin B5, which is also called Panthenol has healing properties that aid with skin problems. There is also Shea Butter, which makes your skin softer and smoother. Thankfully, I really don't get blemishes much anymore, but found out that Retinol can also help with this problem. This happens by unclogging your pores and removing your dead skin. It's also effective for eczema if you happen to have a problem with that. 

Here is  a full list of the ingredients:

Organic Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera), Organic Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower Oil), Isopropyl Palmitate (Palm Oil), Pentylene Glycol, Phospholipids, Retinol, Polysorbate 20, Potassium Phosphate, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Cassia Angustifolia Seed Polysaccharide, Glyceryl Stearate,Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Organic Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba Oil), Wildcrafted Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea), Wildcrafted Resina Propoli (Propolis), Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexyl Glycerin, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, (97% Natural/71% Organic), Nut free formulation

I love the pretty pink and white pump container of the moisturizer. The pump dispenser makes it easy to apply the product and so much more sanitary than dipping your finger in a jar. The moisturizer is a light creamy texture and really sinks into my skin quickly. I didn't really notice any scent to it either,  just a nice clean moisturizer. I've used it a few days and have noticed a slight improvement in my skin already. My skin looks a bit brighter and my complexion is not as dull looking. It also helps to keep my skin soft and smoother.

If you're looking for a great organic and natural moisturizer that is chock full of good ingredients with then you'll want to try it out. You can also wear it under your makeup and on your neck and decollete area! Retseliney Advanced Retinol Moisturizer is reasonably priced for $21.00 on Amazon.

Retseliney Advanced Retinol Serum 

As with the Retseliney Advanced Retinol Moisturizer, the Advanced Retinol Serum is made with  premium organic and natural ingredient ingredients with no  parabens, fragrances or sulfates. It is also safe for any skin types.

The Advanced Retinol Serum includes Vitamins E, A and Green Tea, which altogether are a great combination of antioxidants. The Hyaluronic Acid Serum helps to keep your skin from drying out and keeps your skin hydrated and moisturized. Vitamin A stimulates collagen and also improves your skin's elasticity.

It is a nice clear unscented serum which dries very quickly and doesn't leave any sticky residue on your skin. My skin just drinks it up and I love the feeling of it. It helps to make my face firmer and brighter. It is recommended to follow up with the Moisturizer after using the Serum.

 I love how by using both of these products they really make my skin look brighter, healthier and more even toned so far. It makes me feel good that I'm using some natural and organic quality products, and that don't have harmful toxins in them. They also can be used by women and men alike.

OZ Naturals Retinol Serum ~ #review #retinolserum

If you read my blog you might know that I love trying out beauty products, especially when they work so well! I like to change up my products and am always trying out something new. When Oz Naturals asked me to try out their Retinol Serum I was like, sure will!

 First of all, Oz Naturals Retinol Serum contains 2.5% Retinol, which is the highest concentration of Retinol that you can get without a prescription. It also includes Astaxanthin and Vitamin E which are powerful antioxidants which help to maintain the health of your skin. Altogether these ingredients are known to reduce hyperpigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles. It also helps with improving texture and tone.

This serum's molecular structure penetrates the lower layers of your skin to help produce collagen and also help with the elasticity of your skin. It comes in a brown glass bottle with a pump dispenser. I always like pump dispensers because they are neater and less messy.

To use first you cleanse, exfoliate and pat dry your skin. Apply toner before the serum. All you need is a small amount to cover your face, neck and decollete. Then allow to dry and follow up with a moisturizer. It can be used daily and under makeup.

I've used it for a few days and am loving the results so far. My skin loves how it soaks up the great ingredients and leaves it feeling smooth and glowing. It's safe to use and does not contain alcohol, parabens or sulfates. I also like that it is cruelty free and 72% organic.

The company stands behind it's product and if you aren't satisfied within 30 days you will get an entire refund of the purchase price with no questions asked.

Belitae FRESH-C Vitamin C Serum Review + Giveaway

I'm always looking for products to beautify my skin! What woman doesn't, right? Anything to help keep looking as youthful as I can and I'm all for it! When you get to a "certain" age like me, you need all the help you can.

Recently I was introduced to a new product called FRESH-C Vitamin C Serum by Belitae Organics. They state that when you apply Vitamin C topically, it is 20 times more effective than taking a vitamin capsule. Now that's impressive! I hate taking pills all the time anyways and this is so much easier.

I hate to admit, but I've noticed some fine lines on my face. The FRESH-C Serum is supposed to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and and wrinkles so this is a big plus in my book. It also promotes the synthesis of collagen and elastin and correct the appearance of sun-damaged skin.

The FRESH-C Vitamin C Serum I received came in dark blue glass bottle with a dropper which was sealed. This was nice to know that it had not been opened before. It also has an attractive label which catches your eye. It is formulated with STAY-C50, which is proven to be a more stable and bioavailable form of Vitamin C, which is unlike any other serum! This Vitamin C serum bio-converts to L-ascorbic acid with the enzymes on the skin so it is available when needed. 

I like how this serum absorbs quickly into the skin and my face feels more firm since I've been using it. All you need is to gently massage 2 to 3 drops onto your face and neck twice per day. Allow it to absorb into your skin before putting on any moisturizer. 

It also has made my facial skin look a bit brighter and fresher looking. I love using this serum and am going to continue using it for my daily skin regimen.

The FRESH-C Vitamin C Serum is made in the U.S.A. and has 98% natural and 72% organic ingredients. There are no added fillers and it is a cruelty free product. Belitae offers a 100% money back guarantee also! You can purchase a bottle for yourself on Amazon.

Meaningful Beauty Crème de Serum - {Review}

Meaningful Beauty Crème de Serum - {Review}

Since I am a women I don't really like to tell people my age all the time, unless it's at a doctor's office or somebody that really needs to know. Sometimes I let someone guess how old I really am for a little game and lots of times they guess a lot lower than I am or maybe a few years. This makes me feel good, because you are what you feel and I feel pretty good for my age, I'd say.

Anyways, I like to look as good as I possibly can and try out new beauty products. Recently, I was really excited to be able to got a #MeaningfulBeauty Vox Box which contained Cindy Crawford's Meaningful Beauty Crème de Serum for testing purposes from Influenster. I've been trying this little beauty product for a couple of weeks and like the product quite well.  It has a pump application and is a nice smooth texture and goes on my face smooth and silky.

Meaningful Beauty Crème de Serum makes my skin feel softer and there is no greasy feel to it at all. It glides on your facial skin and is easy to smooth on. Also a little goes a long way. I've been putting it on in the morning under my makeup and in the evening after removing my makeup. I'm feeling satisfied with Meaningful Beauty Crème de Serum and was so happy to be able to get to try it out.
