My Review

This product includes witch hazel so not only does it clear up your skin from acne and cleans your pores out, it can also help to reduce puffiness and swelling. This product left my face feeling clean and fresh. I have also seen progress in the reduction of discoloration spots on my face. My skin feels softer and I have noticed a healthy glow. This product is easy to apply and absorbs quickly into your skin.

The first time I tried La Deessa's Premium Anti-Aging Elixir, I was skeptical, as I am with any new product. I opened the bottle and smelled it but all I smelled was  a bitter aloe or witch hazel scent, nothing bad. I used the dropper to add a few drops to my face and rubbed it in. As it dried I could feel my face getting tighter. It was pretty impressive. I love when a product works so quickly and it's so noticeable!

I think I was expecting a serum so the flowing liquid in the bottle was a bit shocking not that it took anything away from how well it worked!

Rimmel Gentle Eye Makeup Remover

My Instagram
  • Gently removes all eye make up, including long lasting & waterproof make up, with no oily residue.
  • Suitable for sensitive eyes & contact lens wearers.
  • Dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested.
I used this product for the very first time last night and was extremely disappointed with it. It did everything it says except remove my waterproof makeup, even though it says right on the bottle it removes waterproof mascara. I usually love Rimmel's products but this one was very disappointing! I actually hated how poorly this worked. I thought I could trust that this would be as good as all the other products they have but it was NOT. When I tried to remove my makeup with this, it stung! I needed to be really careful to not to get it in my eye but I did and it stung! It was hard to remove my makeup with this and it only actually smudged my mascara and eyeliner but really just pushed it around. I needed to scrub it off with face wash in the shower.

Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Eyeliner

I love this eye liner, it is a great product. It works as both an eyeshadow and an eyeliner. It really is waterproof and lasts all day. But I can't recommend it to anyone because when the first part of the stick is used up, it's not set up to extend so that you can get more of it. It doesn't twist up and it's not easy to sharpen. Even if you have a sharpener big enough for it, the pencil is too sharp and jagged to use directly on your eyes. This is why I give it poor value for the money and do not recommend it. Whatever sticks out in the beginning is all you're gonna be able to use. I've bought two of them now, thinking that the first one was just one in a million, but the second one won't come out either.

McCormick Gourmet Thyme

Versatile thyme adds its warm aromatic flavor to stews, soups, and roasted pork, beef, chicken and turkey. Add it to stuffing, vegetables, beans and jambalaya.

Add 1/2 teaspoon to 4 servings jambalaya, seafood chowder or ground beef for meatloaf.

Pure Green Coffee Bean Extract Weight Loss Product Review


My Instagram

XIUM Green Coffee Bean Extract is Pure and 100% free of any artificial ingredients. Why not trust the brand doctors recommend the most? Green Coffee Bean Extract 800 with GCA provides safe and effective weight loss for all body types. Not a stimulant. Our product won't make you jittery or raise your heart rate like other products that may contain roasted coffee or ephedra.
My Instagram
  • Green Coffee Bean Extract - #1 Doctor Recommended Brand
  • 100% Pure - Easy To Swallow - Rapid Release Capsules - MADE IN USA 200 MG Capsules Pure-Clinically Proven Green Coffee Bean Extract (HCA) Hydroxycitric Acid
  • All Natural Weight Loss Supplement - Zero Fillers, Zero Binders, Zero Artificial Ingredients
  • Made in the USA - Caffeine-Free (less than 1% Caffeine). Non-Stimulating- Effective & Safe, Lose Weight For Male & Female and All Body Types
Pure Green Coffee Bean Extract provides safe and effective weight loss for all body types. Highlighted on the Dr. Oz show HERE.

This product’s weight loss effects are not caused by caffeine. The key ingredient for weight loss in Green Coffee Bean Extract is called chlorogenic acid. Chlorogenic acids works by inhibiting the release of glucose into the body, while at the same time boosting your metabolism and burning fat in the liver. These two mechanisms work together to inhibit the absorption of fat and eliminate weight gain.

Green coffee beans are coffee beans that have not yet been roasted. The roasting process of coffee beans reduces amounts of the chemical chlorogenic acid. Therefore, green coffee beans have a higher level of chlorogenic acid compared to regular, roasted coffee beans. Chlorogenic acid in green coffee is thought to have health benefits for heart disease, diabetes, weight loss, and others.


How does it work?

Green coffee beans are coffee beans that have not yet been roasted. These coffee beans contain a higher amount of the chemical chlorogenic acid. This chemical is thought to have health benefits. For high blood pressure it might affect blood vessels so that blood pressure is reduced. For weight loss, chlorogenic acid in green coffee is thought to affect how the body handles blood sugar and metabolism.

My Review

Don't let the small size of this product fool you it is everything you could ever want! There are five settings to help you spice it up in so many ways. While I haven't been able to try this out with my boyfriend, I think we'll both love it, I already know I do!

This intimate massager was designed with women in mind although it is intended for both solo use and with a partner. It is considered a waterproof sex toy and is safe to use in water including in the shower.

The KY® Intimacy Range was designed as an intimate massager line that can be used anywhere on the body. If you are using the massager for stimulation of the genital area, then using a condom is recommended to keep your massager clean and help prevent the spread of bacteria/microorganisms. The massagers can be easily cleaned with soap and warm water in accordance with the instructions in the leaflet.  If you are using a massager on one area of the body, make sure that you clean it properly before you use it on another area of the body.

Many people find using lube with a massager a real revelation. It lets the massager glide over the body - easily giving a more intense feeling. KY Jelly™, Yours +Mine™ and Warming Jelly™ lubricants are perfectly safe to use with all types of massagers and wash off easily with water.

If you're up for something new, try using this to stimulate your nipples while you're significant other stimulates you in a different way. Add some lube and use it on your clit while you're alone. And if you're feeling really kinky, use lube and try something new on your ass, one of my favorites. ;)

Sweet'N Low® Not-So-Naughty Egg Nog - Recipe Party



My Instagram
The ‘skinny’ versions of the popular holiday favorites use Sweet’N Low® instead of sugar to sweeten without the caloric guilt... and it is oh-so-yummy! I whipped up some new, Sweet'N Low® inspired recipes and invited over some girlfriends to enjoy every sip over some quality girl time! A holiday party was perfect for this! 

The package I received included:

  • 20 Two pack samplers of Sweet'N Low
  • 1 Sweet'N Low tote bag
  • 1 Sweet'N Low purse hanger 
  • 1 Sampling insert
  • 1 Recipe card


The recipe was for some super easy and festive Not-So-Naughty Egg Nog made with Sweet'N Low! Let's face it, none of us want to gain weight over the holidays so why not give this low calorie egg nog a try!


Ingredients

  • 4 pasteurized eggs
  • 12 packets Sweet’N Low® zero calorie sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 5 cups cold skim milk
  • Pinch ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Place eggs, Sweet’N Low® and vanilla in blender container.
  2. Cover and blend on medium or high speed 10 seconds or until foamy.
  3. Add milk. 
  4. Cover and blend another 5 seconds. 
  5. Pour into a 1 1/2-quart pitcher. 
  6. Sprinkle individual servings with nutmeg.

In my recipe I used almond milk rather than skim milk. I'm not lactose intolerant, however I am not a fan of the texture of milk. The flavor of the vanilla almond milk added to the recipe nicely.

For your warning, if you're not a fan of the aspartame flavor and after taste, Sweet'N Low is not for you. While this egg nog is lower in calories than other recipes it has a STRONG aspartame flavor and it really put me off.

After three days in my refrigerator, the Not-So-Naughty Egg Nog was rancid. I opened the container and nearly threw up again. It smelled VERY bad and was separated completely (see image on the left.)

Check out more recipes from Sweet'N Low HERE. Drinks, main dishes, desserts, anything imaginable!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free from Crowdtap.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

NutriRevolution Caralluma Fimbriata Extract 1000mg Review


My Instagram

What is Caralluma Fimbriata?

Caralluma fimbriata, is an edible cactus found in India shown to suppress hunger, enhance physical endurance, burn fat, and improve muscle tone. Has been used for centuries to help tribes survive famine, drought, food shortage, and long hunting trips.
 

How long should I take Caralluma Fimbriata to see results?

While each person is different, you should see positive results within the first few weeks.

My Instagram

Has Caralluma worked for anyone? Does Caralluma really work?

Caralluma Fimbriata was found to significantly suppress appetite, reduce waist circumference and increase weight loss in adults who took the supplement over a 4 week period. On average, the participants lost 7.5 pounds and 2 inches off of their waist circumference.

My Review

Before I was offered this product to review I had never heard of Caralluma. Now we have all been hearing about Garcinia and how wonderful it is for weight loss, but this is something no one has been talking about. Apparently Caralluma fimbriata contains pregnane glycosides, a phytochemical that blocks the enzyme citrate lyase. When this enzyme's activity is stopped, your body cannot produce fat. So, Caralluma Fimbriata blocks the enzymes responsible for breaking down and producing fatty acids in the body. I admit I don't know what all those enzymes are about, but I do know that this is worth a shot to see if it works. You only need to take 2 capsules twice a day as a dietary supplement - so you can take it with your regular meds and see if it works. NutriRevolution's Caralluma is 100% natural and pure with no additives or binders, It is made in the USA in accordance with the FDA regulations.

I totally recommend this product to those wanting to shed a few extra pounds along with diet and exercise, lets face it this isn't a miracle pill that will let you eat ice cream with all the toppings for every meal and still lose weight. But it works. Plus there are no bad side effects with this product  unlike some weight loss products. I received this product free in exchange for my honest review.

If you want to buy a 60 capsule bottle, get it on Amazon for $11.57 HERE.
