Are you a scent nut like I am?  I just love scented soaps and by the way, I am really particular about excellent hand washing skills in my house.  Nothing inappropriate but I insist on everyone washing their hands when they come home from work or school and before eating. It is one of the best things you can do to keep yourself and your family healthy any time of the year.

Dial must have been thinking about me when they created their new line of amazing hand soaps.  NEW Dial® Deep Cleansing Hand Soap is the latest Dial® Brand hand soap that blends a touch of luxury with the superb cleansing power that you know and love.  They are perfect for your own bath, a guest bath, at the kitchen sink or anywhere between.  

I really can't believe how these amazing scents from the Dial Deep Cleansing Hand Soap line truly elevate my everyday hand washing experience. They smell absolutely yummy! They clean really well too.  They are great for everyday and I have been using them for over a week now...my hands feel soft and smell just delicious. The weather finally has warmed up enough for to start cleaning up my garden beds and I always need to scrub like three times.  This time I tried Dial Deep Cleansing Hand Soap and all that soil was off after one washing!  That gentle micro-scrubber power really works like magic. 

Each scent of these premium hand soaps feature super vibrant scents, a gentle micro-scrubber formula that smooths and moisturizes the skin, and a modern, fresh design that adds a bit of special style to your home. I was excited to see that there were three scents in the new line....all of them totally decadent....hard to choose my fave because they are sound AND smell just luxurious! Dial Deep Cleansing Hand Soap comes in Yellow Raspberry and Black Sugar, Water Blossoms (smells like Water Lily), Coconut Lime Verbena.  

I know you are adding them to your shopping list as we speak.  I have to tell you I zoomed right over to Rite Aid to hunt them down as soon as I heard about them.  I think my favorite is Coconut Lime Verbena but all three are scrumptious scents.  Let me know your own personal fave.

Amara Organics Vitamin C is your Facial Skin Secret....ssshhhh!!

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.  

How has your skin been faring this cold, cold winter?  Are you having any skin issues?  It seems like it is all my friends and I talk about is dry, itchy skin and how to resolve it. From our heads to our toes!  I was even seeing dry spots on my face and I mentioned it to my friend at the gym a few weeks ago.  I almost felt a little better when she pointed to a dry spot on her own face and we grumbled together.  The timing couldn't have been better when I was offered an opportunity to try Amara Organics Vitamin C, E, and Hyaluronic Acid Serum a few weeks ago.  I have heard so much lately about the benefits of Vitamin C Serums and how it can increase radiance and brightness--after this winter I need some radiance!

I liked that Amara Organics shared that they are committed to high quality natural and organic ingredients in all of their skin care products including their Vitamin C, E, and Hyaluronic Acid Serum.  They even conduct extensive clinical testing on their products which was comforting to me. They are focused on using organic, non-toxic ingredients that are never tested on animals and that is always wonderful.

Did you know that the anti aging power of Vitamin C + E + Hyaluronic Acid can quickly offer almost anyone brighter and more radiant skin? I just recently learned this myself.  I also liked that Amara Organics informed me that their Vitamin C Serum is safe for all skin types and conditions, including dry or irritated skin, acne, and eczema. It will not clog pores and does not contain parabens or alcohol. My skin can sometimes be sensitive so this was reassuring.

A few ingredients I was super happy to know are NOT in any Amara Organics product:

• No Petrochemicals
• No Parabens
• No Artificial colors
• No Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfates
• No DMDM Hydantoin/Diazonial Urea
• No EDTA
• No TEA, DEA, or MEA
• No Phthalates
• No Methylisothiazolineone

Amara Organics facial serum contains vitamin C and vitamin E, suspended in a concentrated base of pure hyaluronic acid. It sounds super technical but in a nutshell this is how Amara Organics Vitamin C, E and Hyaluronic acid Serum can help you:

• Stimulates collagen levels to bring back skin’s natural elasticity and smooth fine lines and wrinkles
• Neutralize free radicals through the antioxidant combination of vitamins C and E to help reverse damage caused by the sun, pollutants, and cigarette smoke
• Protects your skin from UV damage like age spots, discoloration & fine lines
• Smoothes skin texture and brightens complexion

 

How and when do you use Amara Organics Vitamin C, E and Hyaluronic Acid Skin Serum? Very easy to incorporate into any routine.  I have been using it for several weeks now in the morning.  I just apply a few drops to my face and neck and give it a minute to dry and absorb into my skin. I continue with my regular makeup and moisturizing routine. It has been working well and my skin does look good. My friend Nina just stopped by and out of nowhere she asked what I have been doing since I looked so good (!!!!!) Happy day. I guess Amara Organics has been working for me.  I just taught my older sister and mom about the benefits and they have been using it regularly too.  

1. Cleanse and tone face as normal
2. Apply a thin layer of serum on face, neck, and décolletage
3. Allow the serum to dry and absorb into skin...about a minute or two
4. Apply moisturizer and sunscreen as normal

Scraps of Evidence by Barbara Cameron Book Review and KINDLE FIRE HDX Giveaway

Disclosure:  I received the product mentioned above for free for the purpose of this review. I was not financially compensated for this post.  The opinions are my own, based on my personal experience with the product.  However, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Tess Villanova is a Detective with the St Augustine police force, and has just been assigned a new male partner, Logan McMillan. Logan hails from Chicago and has a distinct personality that added interest to the book right away. I really liked both Tess and Logan together and I think you will too. They are both super professional, Christians, and have both been forced to confront that scary prospect of why bad things happen in our world...over and over again.  The book takes you back to Tess's senior year in high school when she faced the horror of seeing her best friend murdered at the prom. Can you even imagine?  Her sweet friend Samantha was the first victim of a maniacal serial killer.  Then another body is unearthed and the dynamic duo of Tess and Logan are assigned to lead this critical investigation.  Tess is still doing her quilting and this plays into the story...in fact her Aunt who lives in the nursing home has a clue that is going to help but I don't want to say much more and give anything away.
 

The two investigators work closely together to find the serial killer and while they do so they also discover a mutual attraction.  This gets kind of tricky and interesting too! Of course Tess and her quilting guild get in a way sometimes but Logan is persistent. It makes for a great read.  Things become super complicated because they still are working together.  You get a sweet romantic story plus a mystery all wrapped up in one.  What could be better for a beach vacation read or a cold winter weekend? I had a couple of people in mind who I was suspecting as the killer but I wasn't really sure till very close to the end. Maybe you will guess faster than I did. I love mysteries!
