Hydracentials Sporty 25 oz Insulated Stainless Steel Water BottleReview #Hydracentials



We are a very active family.  Between day hikes, jogging, boot camp and Ultimate Frisbee we need to hydrate constantly.  A good water bottle is essential. That is why I was excited to try out a new durable stainless steel water bottle from  Hydracentials.  

Hydracentials Sporty 25 Oz Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle is sturdy and sports a Flip Cap and even a straw. Even more important it is totally BPA Free and Eco Friendly. The perfect companion for hiking, biking, the gym or just hydrating on the go.  It keeps water chilly and fresh so I find I drink more and stay better hydrated.  Thanks to the Double Wall Vacuum Insulation It keeps my fave drink cold for hours even in the heat.
If you are looking for a good insulated water bottle, the Hydracentials Sporty 25 oz Double Wall Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle is perfect for use at the gym, boot camp, in your car, at the office, around your house or anywhere you need to take your fave cold drink.  It even has a handy loop at the top to make it even more convenient to carry. Alternatively, you  can hook it onto backpacks or carabineers during active sports or for school.

I love that it is constructed from durable and sturdy premium quality 18/8 FOOD GRADE stainless steel. The Hydracentials Sporty 25 ounce water bottle is the perfect eco-friendly sports bottle. It is even easy to hold and my hands are petite.  This double wall insulated water bottle is PERFECT for anytime on the go as it fits beautifully in both our car and SUV cup holders. I love that I have no worries about spills and messes while driving too.

Finally I feel like I have found a great replacement for those questionable plastic water bottles! I always worry about the plastic and my health...especially in the heat. Who knows about those toxins and chemicals with the plastic bottles? I feel so much more healthy with this BPA Free, FOOD GRADE stainless steel water bottle. I love that it holds 25 fluid ounces of chilly water for me anytime I need it. 

I also like that the Hydracentials bottle has a flip up spout and straw drinking mechanism so I can choose even on the go! The flip cap top provides single-handed drinking ability which is sometimes necessary with my active lifestyle.  I am lucky if I have one hand free sometimes, you know? I have no worries with this large capacity 25 ounce water bottle.

This is a double wall insulated COLD water bottle. It is made of 18/8 food grade stainless steel water bottle, which is only recommended for use with cold beverages due to the flip spout and straw drinking mechanism. The manufacturer suggest that you DO NOT USE WITH HOT LIQUIDS for safety reasons.  Enjoy it with all your cold beverages though anytime you want!

You can pick up this great Hydracentials Stainless Steel Water Bottle for ice cold water all day long right on Amazon.

Deep Cleansing Facial Oil review #Instanatural


Their Deep Cleansing Facial Oil contains a really gentle blend of ingredients that melt away dirt, impurities and makeup fast. I love using this versus the traditional facial wash. It really makes my skin look and feel great. I like that it cleans without stripping my skin of its natural oils or disturbing the natural pH balance.

Instanatural created this Deep Cleansing Facial Oil with an energizing blend of oils. It gently cleans my pores and I feel like it does a great job to remove dead skin cells because my skin looks smooth and nourished after I use it.  I like using it with just my fingers and but sometimes I use it with a natural facial sponge. Instanatural also suggests that you can use with a washcloth. After you gently rub it in and around all you need to do is rinse it off with warm water.  I notice that it leaves a soft and silky feeling on my skin. No tightness or greasiness. A perfect in-between, my skin just feels comfortable. The company says this is a wonderful option for all skin types and especially regenerative for mature skin (like mine). This is also a great option to calm skin after shaving or sun burns. I find it is very effective to  remove makeup..it gets all the mascara and eye makeup off too.

I love the ingredient list too..a lot of good clean oils in there:  Jojoba Oil Olive Oil Lavendar Essential Oil Pink Grapefruit Essential Oil Tamanu Oil Hemp Oil Sea Buckthorn Oil Geranium Essential oil. You can find this Deep Cleansing Facial Oil on Amazon for convenient purchasing anytime.

IPhone 5 Armband - Pro Athlete Quality Review #MuvUSA



I am way into fitness and working out as you might already know, ahem, ahem. If you are one of my loyal Glamamama readers you always hear me talking about boot camp, jogging, yoga, pilates and more. I like to switch it up regularly. One of the things I really enjoy is jogging down by the beach (AKA the shore)  I like to listen to music while I jog but I never really could decide on a holder or band for my iphone so I have always jogged sans music. I always felt like something was missing especially when I saw other joggers and bikers with armbands enjoying their tunes. In comes an opportunity to check out the MuvUSA iPhone 5 armband.  This is an armband that is designed to perform and last and it was pretty clear even when I took it out of the package.

 A few tidbits about the muv armband to consider:
  • The premium red stitching puts this armband in the best class of quality, durability and style.
  • The superior Velcro will remain intact and will ensure that the band does not slip off your arm, even in the most intense workouts.
  • All of the openings are also reinforced and hence tear-resistant.
  • The ultra soft neoprene ensures full comfort and no damage to your skin.
  • It protects your iPhone from damage and is usable in any condition because it is waterproof and sweat resistant
  • The touch screen protector is slim and highly sensitive, so you can use your touch screen with no hassle.
  • The high-visibility reflector allows you to run or exercise outdoors at any time during the day or night.
  • The key holder and the 4 openings at the back provide great convenience. 


It has been so much fun to run with music in the past week.  I love how easy it is to use the touch screen with the muv armband. It makes me so much more motivated to run with my fave music.  It is really light and fits perfectly to my arm. I am pretty petite though so I use it at the tightest setting. It even has a slot for a key and four openings so you can use them for your headphones.
 

IPhone 5 Armband is available on Amazon so you can get a move on your exercise regimen and pump up the volume in a day or two, right to your door!

Dr Song Exclusive Vitamin C Serum Review + Giveaway #drsong


Dr Song Medical is a medical cosmetic laboratory that originally manufactured products for professionals, doctors, and medical facilities.  Dr. Song recently made their high quality products available directly to the consumer like you and me. I love that I can save money by eliminating a unnecessary visit to the dermatologist and buy my skin care direct from Amazon.  Dr Song Medical products are made in the USA. They are FDA compliant and a provider of professional products so I feel good about using them.
  
Dr. Song Vitamin C Serum contains 20% vitamin c, boosted with vitamin E, hyaluronic acid and aloe vera for a smooth velvet finish on the skin that many other vitamin c serums cannot replicate.  This vitamin C serum has been refined through rigorous testing from dozens of doctors and professionals within the cosmetic industry and comes with a 365 day money back guarantee.  Don't
forget that for the best shelf life you should store away from sunlight and extreme heat.  It is easy to add Dr Song vitamin C into your everyday skin care regimen too. Use it once per day and remember that little bit goes a long way and only a thin layer is needed. This high quality serum greatly enhances any moisturizer, so make sure to apply a good moisturizer immediately after using it. If using with Retinol or Retin-A, apply the serum first and allow to dry for 10-15 minute before applying for the best results. 
 
I noticed results after a few days but Dr Song shared with me that immediate results are not totally uncommon. Don't worry if you don't see a super fast change.  You really need to use it for at least 30 days to see optimal results.  I like that this product is safe for all skin types too. It felt good on my skin and I did not experience any irritation.

How do you use Dr Song Vitamin C serum? It is very simple. You just wash your face and pat it dry very gently. Apply a thin layer of serum and allow it a minute or two to dry. That is what I do.  Finish your beauty care regimen by applying a good moisturizer once the serum has completely dried.  I like that it is a light, non-greasy formula so it feels natural and dries fast.  You can find Dr. Song Vitamin C Serum on Amazon for easy purchasing from home too.
