Tide to Go Review #TidetoGo #contest @influenster

Disclosure: I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

I have always had the kind of job that has me working out of a company car. I have a professional career and have to dress accordingly. Actually, my industry has always been on the conservative side. It used to be skirt suits ALL the time back in the day.  It really got old fast especially in the winter. Then, years ago pants suits became acceptable. Big improvement. Now conservative dresses, pants suits, skirt suits or a skirt and a dressy top all are just fine. My dry cleaning bill is a nightmare though. I really try my best to buy clothes that I can wash in cold water and hang to dry.  During the day I have to be prepared for anything though. You should see my car...I could probably do surgery from the backseat I am so well prepared. All that thought includes my Tide to Go pen.  Stains happen. Often. Be ready when they do with the Tide to Go pen and worries go away fast.

Recently I was running around from client to client trying to tie up loose ends before the 4th of July holiday.  I realized I needed to eat so I stopped at a little deli for a cup of healthy Split Pea Soup.  I was wearing a tan dress and of course I spilled a little on my dress in my rush to eat quickly and get to my next appointment.  I sighed and took a deep breath, finished my soup and ran back to my car. I grabbed my handy Tide to Go pen and dabbed away.  The stain was history in less than two minutes.  By the time I got to my next client you could not see a thing.  It works beautifully.

Add the Tide to Go pen to your shopping list or if you have your phone handy add it to your shopping list app.  You will be happy you did...maybe even pick up two one to stash in your purse and another for the car or a friend.   Let me know how it works for you.

Azure Naturals Ultimate Retinol Anti-Wrinkle Serum and Giveaway #azurenaturals

I really prefer using more natural products but I need powerful ingredients for my skincare. I am no spring chicken and I need some help here and there. I was excited to hear about Azure Naturals and the fact that they provide high quality facial skincare and anti-aging products using natural and organic ingredients whenever possible. They have shared that they are committed to delivering the finest skin care system. Azure wants every single client how their skin looks after using their products. I am always looking to improve my health and skin so any solutions or ideas are great for me. I definitely know from personal experience that high quality retinol (vitamin A) based products like Azure Naturals Ultimate Retinol work and are effective.

I learned a few years that retinol, is simply one of the most effective ingredients for reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Retinol also known as Vitamin A is proven to improve pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, skin texture, skin tone, color, as well as increase your skin's hydration levels. Ultimate Retinol is the most advanced retinol product currently available on the market.  Azure has designed a delivery system that allows very high strength 2.5% Retinol to be used around the eyes. The best part is that this is even gentle enough to be used by people with sensitive skin

 

Sadly, cellular renewal happens continuously when we're young, but as we age the skin's ability to renew itself slows down. Retinol has a very small molecular structure that allows it to deeply penetrate your skin activating collagen and elastin. Applied at night Ultimate Retinol can help to increase your skin's moisture which promotes effective cellular turnover. I love that this is made in the USA with the highest quality natural and organic ingredients available.

• 97% Natural, 72% Organic
• Contains No Alcohol
• No Parabens
• Plant Based, No GMO's
• Cruelty Free and Never Tested On Animals

Take my sage advice here and start using Ultimate Retinol in your late twenties or early thirties. Don't wait. Early use of retinol can combat fine lines before they become apparent. If you don't have prior experience using high quality retinol products like Ultimate Retinol start slowly and be consistent with your use. Apply a small amount of retinol serum every other day, after a couple of weeks you can begin applying more frequently as your skin adapts. I use it at night to let my skin rest. Always use a good SPF 15+ during the day under your makeup too. Just like exercise, it is very important to use your skin care products consistently. If you do experience any irritation decrease usage for a few days and work your way back up after that.  All Azure Naturals products are backed by our 365-day, 100% Hassle-Free, Money Back Guarantee.  They shared with me that if you don't absolutely love their ULTIMATE RETINOL Anti Wrinkle Serum they will give you a full refund, including shipping, no matter where you buy the product!  Who can't appreciate that kind of guarantee?

Eye Gel for Reducing Eye Puffiness, Dark Circles, Wrinkles and Fine Lines Around Eyes Review #adovia

I am always on the lookout for eye creams that can reduce dark circles, eye puffiness, wrinkles and fine lines around my eyes.  I recently tried something new to me from Adovia that was gentle but really made a difference in my eye area.  Adovia is so confident their Mineral Eye Gel it will work for anyone that they even off a money back guarantee if you don't feel like you look 10 years younger. It is infused with Dead Sea Minerals, Vitamin E, Vitamin C and Aloe Vera for maximal benefit. I definitely saw a reduction in the a.m. puffiness and dark circles around my eyes the first morning. I was fairly surprised because I have tried so many products---some of them very expensive too.  I feel like I looked fresher and more well slept when I woke up too. 

I have noticed the dark circles continue to look less prominent as I have used it for almost two weeks now.  I just look a little bit younger and more refreshed. It definitely helps when you make sure you get 8 hours of sleep too but unfortunately that doesn't always happen. That is why I am happy to have my Adovia Mineral Eye Gel to help!

Lip Gloss Collagen Review and Giveaway #BestLipGloss

My lips always get so dry. I have tried so many lip glosses over the years, some better than others.  I recently found a real keeper in this Collagen Booster Lip Gloss. It comes in a teensy little container that fits in an even bag or even a jeans pocket so you can have it with you whenever you need it.

It is no surprise that Inventia believes it is naturally one of the best lip gloss products on the market! Collagen Booster Lip Gloss is a special lip care product that clearly restores skin’s protective barrier, protecting your lip from drying out. The collagen lip gloss feels light and but seriously smoothes and can even regenerate lips.

I like that you only need a tiny dab to smoothe and soften your lips. I have been using it a.m. and p.m. And my lips look and feel fantastic. As am added benefit it has a slight mint flavor so you feel more confident and fresh. I like this so much I would actually consider tossing some of my drugstore lip balms and switching to Collagen Booster Lip Gloss. You can find it right on Amazon so it is easy to stock up. 

I keep it on my dresser so I can remember to apply it morning and night.  I love the petite size. It will fit right in my travel bag and it is definitely coming along on my upcoming business trip in a few weeks.  I am not looking forward to the trip and being away in the humidity filled South East but I am glad I will have soft, moisturized lips!
