Exfolimate for exquisitely clean skin: a Review #exfolimate


 
I am always looking for something to improve my skin especially my facial skin. I have found that sometimes the most simple ideas are the most effective. Exfolimate is a new breakthrough in skincare technology tools that I recently had the opportunity to try out. Have you tried out different skin exfoliators? This is totally different! It only takes a minute every day to experience fast rejuvenation and deeper cleansing. The idea is simple but totally ingenious and an easy way to really rev up any beauty regimen to transform the complexion. In addition to deeper cleansing, Exfolimate provides enhanced exfoliation and superior moisturization. 
 

Exfolimate has a patented smooth edge micro groove technology that gently releases dirt
and oil embedded beneath your skin's surface.  Sounds kind of Star Wars, right? The company has shared with me that Exfolimate radically deep-cleanses to dramatically improves tone and texture, while reducing pore size, oily patches, dry areas and even improve visible signs of aging.

Exfolimate works in multiple ways to help your skin:
  • Superior moisturisation
  • Cleanses, refreshes and revives skin
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Leaves skin feeling softer and looking brighter
  • Improves skin tone and texture
  • Reduces dry spots and oily patches
  • Increases the absorption of skin care products
  • Safe for all skin types


After I use Exfolimate I find my skin gets super clean. It feels and looks better because it is free of pore clogging elements so I actually find that I get improved absorption of my creams, lotions and serums. The wonderful part is that it is safe for all skin types. Sometimes my skin can be sensitive but I had no problems using Exfolimate. I find that it leaves my skin feeling softer, brighter and more refreshed.  You can conveniently find it on Amazon and check it out for yourself.

Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream review #BodyMerry



I love my beautiful hazel eyes. They change color with the light and I always get compliments on them.  That is what I want people to notice when they look at my eyes. Lordy, I don't want them to focus on any kind of fine lines or things that might reveal my age. I keep all of that really close to the vest! If you want your eyes to express everything but your age then you might want to consider an eye cream that I recently tried called Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream.  Body Merry is a comprehensive solution for all of the offenders including dark circles, wrinkles, puffiness, crow's feet, fine lines, dryness, sags or bags.

Now I don't like using harsh chemicals or products that might irritate my skin. Who needs that headache?  
Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream is perfect for the delicate eye area since they use only natural and organic ingredients. I found it to be very gentle but I woke up looking refreshed each morning.  That is a perfect blend for me.

Body Merry Eye Cream has an amazing combination of elements to help keep your eyes looking fresh like the latest in peptides like Matrixyl-3000 and Tripeptide-5.  They also craft Body Merry Eye Cream with an ocean based Retinol and botanical Hyaluronic Acid. They know that people like me need serious help so they also included several key antioxidants, organic vitamins and minerals, pure plant oils. They did not forget the botanical actives like Aloe, Witch Hazel, Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter, Vitamin C, Cucumber, Beeswax, Jojoba Oil, Tamanu Oil, Green Tea, Licorice, Eyebright, Avocado Oil, Flax Seed Oil, Rose Hip Oil, Lemon, Lemongrass, Vitamin B5, Lavender and Chamomile as well. You have a treasure trove of ingredients to bathe your delicate eye area in moisture to keep it looking soft and fresh every single day.


Body Merry suggests that you follow their usage guidelines for best results
  • Clean and dry your skin before use.
  • A baby pea sized dollop is sufficient for both eyes, so start with that and add more if needed
  • Dab the cream with your pinky along the contours of your eyes to the cheekbones, at the outer corners and underneath the brows.
  • Use on eyelids to help to keep kids fresh looking and lifted. Dab the cream into the crevices at the corners as well.
  • Apply Body Merry with a gentle circular motion to your eye area
  • Let the cream absorb for a minute or two (or longer) before applying make up.
  • Body Merry can be used on the face and neck as well as on your hands--space saver when traveling
  • For best results, use morning and night. You can see results in as little as 5-6 weeks.
Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream works beautifully on all skin types which makes it an ideal option.  This luxurious cream leaves skin looking and feeling firm, plump and youthful. This is a great cream for quick and long-lasting results even better...those compliments!  You can find Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream on Amazon too so shopping is easy anytime day or night.

This lovely body wash is infused with coconut water and a refreshing mango aroma. I was able to try it too that night, thank goodness she didn't use it all up on me.  It left my skin replenished and hydrated.  I would love to use this every time I  shower and I have been using it all week.  My skin is always so dry I need every little bit of help I can get so I was thrilled to hear about this new product from Dial.

Organic Golden Flax Seed for good health: a Review #goldenflaxseed


You know that I am the healthy and fit mama by now. Well, if you had an 80+ year old mama yourself who keeps herself in tip-top shape it would motivate you too. I really find I have to work harder to keep my body in great shape and I rely on supplements and things like Golden Flax Seed to help me out a little bit. The nice part about Golden Flax seed is that it is the perfect option to get Certified Organic Omega 3s for Vegetarians and Vegans. This was always an issue for my husband since he is vegetarian. Now you have a great way to add those Omega 3's into your diet if you follow a Vegetarian or Vegan lifestyle. I still like to sneak in some lean meat, chicken and fish here and there but I need my Omega 3's so I love my Golden Flax seed.

I recently had the opportunity to try out an organic, non-GMO American grown and processed Golden Flax seed that is actually packaged in downtown Chicago from eSutras.  I love to support US based businesses so I was thrilled to check them out. I love that this Golden Flax seed is non-GMO.  That makes me feel wonderful.

This is so easy to use too...you have three options with this easy to handle 8oz container: Flip Top, Sprinkle or Pour to your desired amount!  Studies have indicated that Golden Flax seed can help heart disease and has the potential to lower cholesterol.  It has been shown to have high levels of Alpha linoleic acid as well. This is one type of Omega 3 fatty acid, similar to those found in fish such as salmon.




A best practice is to grind flaxseed in a coffee or seed grinder in order to enhance their digestibility and increase their nutritional value. I have an extra grinder that I use for nuts and seeds. They are very inexpensive and great to have around the kitchen. If you are going to add ground flaxseed to a cooked cereal or grain dish eSutras suggests doing so at the end of cooking since the soluble fiber in the flaxseed can thicken liquids if left too long.

Ideas for flaxseed recipes are everywhere from Pinterest to Instagram. Some of the ways I often use Golden Flax Seed is to sprinkle ground flaxseed onto my hot or cold cereal like oatmeal.  I always add a bit of ground flaxseed to my homemade muffins and bread recipes. A fave and fast flax seed energy shake for breakfast is easy too. Add ground flaxseed to a blender along with a frozen banana, a bit of spinach, some almond milk (or dairy milk) and some fruit. Try blueberries, cherries, peaches or whatever is available and blend it up with some ice. You can also sprinkle some ground flaxseed on cooked vegetables for a nice, nutty flavor.  The possibilities are really endless. You can even add a tablespoon of flaxseed oil to smoothies to give a delicious treat a fiber boost!



I was impressed with the quality of the Organic Golden Flaxseed that eSutras sent me. It tasted fresh and ground up smoothly.  I used it in a smoothie that I shared with my little one. She thought it was yummy and so did I. I plan on baking some banana chocolate chip muffins later this week and you can bet they will have some Golden Flaxseed in there (shhh, don't tell hubby he loves it as long as I don't tell him what I have hidden inside my treats!).  The container is convenient and stores well. I am happy that eSutras Organic Golden Flax seed is available on Amazon since it makes my shopping very convenient.
