InstaNatural Vitamin C Facial Toner Review

This is the first time I've had a toner for review, and a good toner is always a great thing for your skin, IF you can find one that doesn't dry out, break out, or burn your skin. I've found one, Folks! It feels amazing and comes in an convenient spray bottle! You do have to get use to spraying yourself in the face but it's a good trade off. I love the fact that InstaNatural always uses natural ingredients in their products. Every product I've ever received from the has always been top notch. It has really been a blessing to my oily / combination skin and a great addition to my morning skincare routine. WIth their all natural products it provides a gentle and refreshing mist of all natural anti aging ingredients as well as vitamin C, Witch Hazel and Tea Tree Oil. On top of that it's also 95% organic, but without the price tag, Very rarely do you see a great product that works this well, with natural and organic ingredients in skincare. 4 oz bottle for $17, the current Amazon pricing.Get yours by clicking here

Foxbrim Youthful Radiance eye cream Review

Here is the other Foxbrim product I received to review. I love that this product is also organic and has all those ingredients that I recognize and can pronounce like their moisturizer. Youthful Radiance Eye Cream has been formulated to help address anti-aging and eye concerns such as dark circles, puffiness, fine lines and wrinkles. I noticed that only after 4 days of using this product, my dark circles were not as bad as before. That's huge for me, I have a teething 8 month old son and we are back to getting up twice in the night and I also work 6 days a week. My eyes seemed to be less puffy and a bit brighter. It seemed to smooth the wrinkles and fine lines at the corners and around my eyes some also. This is really creamy and feels good on the skin. Just a small amount of this cream goes a long way so this bottle should last a while. I also like the fact that it comes in a pump vs. a jar like most eye creams, you can pump out just the right amount that you need with very little product wasted. I think the pricing is fair and competitive compared to other eye creams as well at $21.95 (current Amazon pricing) I love the fact that this eye cream is organic and all natural, I always try to use organic when possible but sometimes feel that if the word organic is on the bottle that they should charge 10x's the amount for it. It has a good combination of plant-based moisturizers to soothe, hydrate and strengthen your skin. I use this under my makeup during the day and at night after I clean my face before bed. While it absorbs quickly, it leaves my skin feeling refreshed. It also didn't break me out like a lot of other products do.

Foxbrim Complete Anti- Aging Moisturizer

OK,This is my first time trying products from Foxbrim, and I got two products to review from them the moisturizer and the youthful radiance eye cream (review for that to follow soon) !! And I must say I am pretty impressed!! when you have a product as healthy as this is, you cant go wrong with your skincare, you all know me I am all about keeping our delicate skin healthy with Natural Organic products!I can't always use organic usually because of pricing issues, but I found this to be pretty competitive among competitors pricing at just $17.95 (current Amazon pricing) I love that I can read the ingredients list and know what they are and have heard of them before. There aren't 45 letter words that are just chemicals. Some listed ingredients include; Aloe Vera, Sunflower oil, Palm oil, Vitamin E, Jojoba oil, Green tea and Shea butter. When you put all these fabulous ingredients together you have one amazing skin care cream moisturizer I've been using this moisturizer for a couple of weeks and I've really been enjoying it! This moisturizer is creamy and rich. I have combination/oily skin, and this did not make me feel too oily throughout the day. I put it on after my serum and before my primer. The product does not ball up whatsoever - instead it blends in smoothly and completely. I can't really speak to the anti-aging claims, since I've only been using it for a couple of weeks, but I really like what it's done so far. I love that it's made with all organic and natural ingredients and has a money-back guarantee. You can get yours by clicking HERE.

100% organic Raw Shea butter by Healthy life essentials Beauty by Shea

I have absolutely fallen in love with raw shea butter. I had never tried it before. It has a nice light scent and is really neat how it melts using your body heat. It goes on smoothly and evenly and Honestly ya'll, my skin has never looked more hydrated. I work outside 6 days a week/ 52 weeks a year and it takes the biggest toll on my skin. My hands are always dry and during the winter very chapped. I'm applying it directly to my skin and it stays moist all day, I can tell the difference in my hand, especially my knuckles and elbows. Myself and my kids are also always struggling with eczema and it has cleared it all up except the tiniest patch on my oldest son. I'm applying this all over now to get a head start on Winter. As a bonus, If you ever read the nasty chemical labels in your beauty products, you'll think twice about using them, with raw shea butter, you can make so much of your own skincare and you'll know exactly what's in your product and on your skin. I'm a for life customer now. If you want to see great hydrated skin and keep it all Winter long, Get yours HERE. I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com.

Vitamin C Serum by Day by Day Beauty

OMG, Yes it's another serum. The market for these is so swamped with these miracle serums that they give away tons of them for review so their product can be the best, I try all of them for at least 3 weeks before I write my reviews, otherwise it just wouldn't be fair to each company.  Day By Day Beauty has created a nice natural product that glides on your skin easily and smoothly. It only takes a small amount to cover your face and it soaks in very quickly. It’s scent free, and full of wonderful ingredients. This product gives my skin a nice youthful radiant glow and makes my skin so soft and smooth. This product would be good for any skin type, even my sensitive skin. I do find this product helps with my fine lines around my eyes and some of the discoloration I have. It works very well on my dry spots. I always add an extra layer (thin) of this product to any dry patches I have on my face and neck. I also use it on my elbows because it works wonders for my rough dry elbows! It’s not marketed for that, but it does help a lot! I have gone between extremely oily skin to extremely dry skin, especially as the weather changes. I work outside 6 days a week 52 weeks a year, and my skin has taken a beating because of it also I'm at the age where I'm just starting to really focus on my skin since the magical age 30 is coming up just next year.  I was so frustrated with my skin and the back and forth since my pregnancies. I was looking and searching for something, anything that would shrink my pores and even out my skin without the chemicals. Overall, if you are looking for a quality Vitamin C serum, Day By Day Beauty’s Vitamin C Serum is a very good choice! It’s affordable, natural, and works beautifully! Want to try it yourself?

Baltic Amber Teething necklace by Good Karma Zone

I heard about these with my oldest son, but never got one because teething never seemed to bother him much. I now have a 7 month old and he is getting teeth in two at a time. Bless his heart, we've tried everything, tablets, gels, teethers, cold wet washcloths, and nothing really worked. I had this exact product in my amazon cart for a couple days going back and forth as to get it and then I saw an opportunity to review it and was over the moon to get approved. Shipping was fast too. As soon as I got it out of the mailer, I inspected the necklace and gave it several good tugs to make sure it wouldn't come apart easily and it held. Each bead is hand knotted and small enough that if it did break wouldn't create a choking hazard. The clasp screws inside itself, so no pinching or getting caught on neck hair. It's tucks right into his shirt or onesie and he doesn't even notice it, so no tugging. At night I put it on his ankle just as a precaution. Now about how it works. He's had this necklace for a few weeks now. These past few  weeks, there has been a LOT less drooling, he's less fussy, he's sleeping through the night again, he's back to exploring and getting into everything, he's just back to being my happy cheeky monkey again. I took the necklace off of him for a bath (you don't have to but I did anyway) and forgot to put it back on him, he went a couple days without it, on day number 3 his daytime sitter told me to put it back on him, she noticed the difference and said she could tell it was helping him also.

  This is a great product and I would recommend it to any mom. You can get yours HERE.  I'm seriously thinking about getting the other colors, so they would go with outfit changes. We have the cognac color one and it's a nice neutral color. The only problem I have with this product is, My now 6 year old son, is jealous and wants one too because the baby gets a necklace and he doesn't.
