Leather Conditioner & Cleaner Review

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

Leather products are great because they really give you such joy for years and years. From leather couches to purses, shoes and even skirts, they just feel wonderful and clean up fast. It is important to care for them properly and clean and condition them with a good product. I recently was able to check out a trio of products from Leather Nova which have all my leather goods looking like new.  Leather Nova Cleaner does a great job of cleaning and freshening up any kind of leather.  I had several pairs of shoes that were in need of some serious cleaning and this had them looking great. I followed up with the Leather Nova conditioner and I was so excited to go out to work every day this week with clean, shiny shoes. I wore a different pair of heels every day so I could enjoy my clean shoes. The company shared with me that it is super for cleaning all types of leather, vinyl & plastic. It comes in a large 18 oz spray bottle so it lasts and lasts. It gently and safely cleans ALL types of leather surfaces, including purses, shoes, sofas, chairs, car seats, etc. It even comes with a free microfiber towel for cleaning.

Leather Conditioner-Apply this to restore and bring back the luster of almost any leather surface.  This works beautifully after you have first cleaned the leather. It restores your leather and it also prolongs the life of your leather surfaces. All my shoes look brand new after cleaning and conditioning them with Leather Nova. The wonderful part is that it works on all types of leather,vinyl and plastic surfaces. Leather Nova is super for shoes, saddles, purses, sofas,chairs and even leather car seats. It's made from high grade polymers and is completely non-toxic. As a bonus it comes with a free applicator pad.

Leather Conditioner and Cleaner -This is the time saving 3-in-1 product from Leather Nova. I love how it cleans, conditions and restores all your leather goods back to the original fresh, glossy look. It also comes in an 18 oz bottle so lasts forever. It's great for cleaning and conditioning your leather products in one step. It is super easy and fast to use. You just apply the product directly on the leather item or the applicator pad and wipe away.  

You can buy these great leather cleaning products on Amazon to make your life super simple.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Uth Anti-aging Formula Serum a Simple Smoothing Solution Review

Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and  believe would be good for my readers.

Sometimes I feel like throwing up my hands and just saying, "I give up." It gets that challenging to keep the wrinkles and fine lines at bay sometimes. I don't know, you hit your 40's and it is so much work. Really. I know you are in the same camp with me, sister. If there was something simple, I would get less discouraged.  The timing was perfect when I heard about a new, simple anti-aging formula called Uth Serum. It actually IS a SIMPLE SMOOTHING SOLUTION.

Uth is a totally new product that is formulated for 2014.  None of those complicated regimens that just left me overwhelmed. It is a simple little jar. Very easy to use. They tell me that new Uth Anti-Aging Serum fights aging while improving the health and beauty of the skin.  They use an exclusive proprietary ingredient called RETEXTRA^®. This special ingredient makes this formulation unique, safe, and very effective. Uth is the only anti-aging product that currently contains this novel retinoid.  

Personally, I like that Uth is not irritating since my skin can sometimes get fussy.  It has no smell and is totally colorless too.  Not greasy at all either. It feels totally revolutionary when you put it on. It glides right on your skin and absorbs very quickly.  It has a silky, powdery sort of finish that feels really different and elegant. Elegant is actually the best way to describe it. My skin feels and looks smooth after I apply it. 

Uth shares with me a bit of information about their innovative Anti-Aging Serum:

• Dramatically smooths fine lines and wrinkles in just 7 days
• Patent pending advanced retinoid formula
• Not irritating to the skin
• Significantly improves skin health and tone
• Leaves skin with a radiant glow
• Silky smooth and powdery application

I have been following the instructions which suggest applying in the morning and at night to freshly cleansed skin. Apply to face, neck, upper chest and on the backs of the hands.  Very simple and easy to follow.

I like the small size of the jar too. It is easy to toss in your purse for a quick touch up or for travel. No problem fitting the jar into that quart size zipper bag and keeps travel light. That is an eternal problem when I am traveling for business so I am thrilled to have a lightweight solution that doesn't fall short for me. I like the fact that the Uth serum provides a bit of a glow so even after a long plane ride I can still look fresh and ready for work too. Let me know what you think.

NIGHTLINE’S Dan Harris’ 10% HAPPIER Kindle HDX Giveaway!

  I received the product mentioned above complimentary for the purpose of this review.  The opinions are my own, based on my personal experience with the product.

A little bit about the book:

After having a nationally televised panic attack on Good Morning America, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure, involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists. Eventually, Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant, insatiable voice in his head, which had both propelled him through the ranks of a hyper-competitive business and also led him to make the profoundly stupid decisions that provoked his on-air freak-out.

We all have a voice in our head. It's what has us losing our temper unnecessarily, checking our email compulsively, eating when we're not hungry, and fixating on the past and the future at the expense of the present. Most of us would assume we're stuck with this voice --- that there's nothing we can do to rein it in --- but Harris stumbled upon an effective way to do just that. It's a far cry from the miracle cures peddled by the self-help swamis he met; instead, it's something he always assumed to be either impossible or useless: meditation. After learning about research that suggests meditation can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain, Harris took a deep dive into the underreported world of CEOs, scientists, and even marines who are now using it for increased calm, focus, and happiness.

10% Happier by Nightline anchor Dan Harris embarks on an unexpected, hilarious, and deeply skeptical odyssey through the strange worlds of spirituality and self-help and discovers a way to get happier that is truly achievable.

My thoughts after reading it:  I have tried a few times over the years to do meditation but never really gave it a total go.  I have such a stressful career and I thought that 10% Happier was an excellent book on how meditation helped to calm the voices Dan's head and how it can help me and you and almost anyone that is willing to really try it out.  You know that voice...the one that says we aren't working hard enough, or that chides us for the stinking cookie this afternoon. This book explained the benefits of meditation in a easier to understand way.  Dan Harris started practicing meditation after having a full blown panic attack while delivering the news live on air. After some research and discussions with different people, Dan decided on trying meditation. It is interesting that he shares some of the solid scientific information about the benefits of meditation too.
It actually shows why meditation is helpful even to lower your blood pressure and it could possibly make you 10% happier...thus the apt title for the book. He shares his story and it is funny and serious at the same time. It is an interesting book and it has spurred me to try meditation again....I recently started yoga and meditation would also be a good addition for me.
