Sally Hansen Gel Nail Polish

Sally Hansen Gel Nail Polish

 

 

I know, the box is ripped, but that's alright, I would have done it anyway.  I picked up this little gem at CVS for the whopping price of $15.99. I know pretty expensive nail polish, right?  You have one of two options.  Buy each step separately at $9.99 a piece or get a price break buying both steps together.  Besides I had a coupon and CVS bucks to spend. 

 

I love nail polish, I just hate the chipping that comes with it.  It's always the same thing.  You take the time to paint them and wham, your blindsided with chips almost right away.  I ain't about that life!  As such, I thought this might be a great product to try out. 

 

This is a two-step process (really three).  The color I am using is call All Chalked Up.  Which I really like. It's reminds me of a beautiful wild lilac.  Purple hues are the color of fall you know.

 

Anyhow, I digress.  Two coats of the nail color, and make sure you let it dry in between coats.  Remember, patients is your friend during any application of nail polish.  The black bottle is the key to your success, so after your two coats of color have dried, apply the top coat.  No UV light needed...No Fuss, No Muss.

 

The picture below is Day 1

(I'm terrible at painting in the lines)

 .

 

Below you will see a pic of Day 3, still holding up!

 

 

Finally day 13...Keep in mind that I've been pretty brutal to my hands over the past 13 days. Heavy cleaning has been involved, laundry, picking and peeling of stickers and boxes...Not to mention at work I actually put boxes together.  Earlier today I scrubbed the tile in my two person shower. 

 

With all this said, don't hate on this last pic...

 

 

 

My left hand actually still looks decent.  My right hand, not so much!  These pictures are as untouched as my nails.  After the first day I did no upkeep to my nails so I could get an honest look at them regarding the 14 day claim.

 

In my opinion, this is great polish!  Next time, I will do touch-ups to keep them looking fresh.  Over all the polish looked pretty good at about 5 days and the glossy shine was amazing!  My suggestion is to purchase this product in the combo pack which is cheaper and make sure you use a coupon!  I've already printed out a couple to get additional colors for my collection. 



Adovia Intensive Anti-Wrinkle Cream

 

Above is a picture of the product that I ordered from amazon.

 Below is a picture of the product I received.

The product was received in perfect condition and in a timely manner from Amazon.

Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!!!!  If I could go back in time and tell this to my 20 year old self, I wouldn't, I'd scream it in my ear until I knew it had left an impression.

Fine lines, beginning signs of crows feet and dents in my forehead are just the beginning signs of my hellacious spiral into being a mature adult.  Well maybe not mature, but no less an adult!

Adovia Intensive Anti-Wrinkle Cream will now be an integral part of my arsenal against my enemy.  Which of course is TIME and GRAVITY.

I received Adovia Intensive Anti-Wrinkle Cream about a week ago.  It is decent sized at 1.7 fluid ounces in a sleek frosted glass container.  A light non-offensive aroma is noted.  The cream itself is jam packed with Dead Sea Minerals, Seaweed, Anti-Oxidants and Aloe Vera.  A great moisturizer to use during the day, night or both.  I give the cream at least 5 minutes to fully absorb before adding anything else onto my face.  I have combined Adovia's Intensive Anti-Wrinkle Cream with my liquid foundation.  No streaks at all. 

I've been using the cream for about a week now and after every application my skin feels tighter, velvety smooth and just plain healthier.  My husband says I look like I'm in my twenties.  Course, he has to say things like that.  I'd like to think that maybe my skin is starting to look closer to twenty-something, instead of thirty-something.  I even find myself wearing less make-up.   

I personally prefer to use this cream at night as it does not contain any SPF. Even without the SPF this one is defiantly a keeper.  I would like to try other products by Adovia as this one has totally met and exceeded my expectations.   I fully anticipate seeing even better results with continued use.   

I'd like to add a little advice to all the twenty-something's running around in the world today.  Trust me, when your in your upper thirties and freaking out because your knocking on forty's door, adding Adovia Intensive Anti-Wrinkle Cream now to your beauty regimen will be beneficial to your face and neck.  Plan ahead for what you know will inevitably take place.  Preemptive strike people!  Say no to wrinkles, age spots, crow's feet, and bags.  I'm not saying that women are not beautiful naturally, because we all are.  I'm not saying run out and get plastic surgery and/or Botox either.  I am saying that moisturizers, serums and creams are a much less evasive way to fight off Father Time and his bag of tricks!

Excelerol 90

 

 Excelerol 90

I received the product in perfect condition and in a timely manner from the seller. 

With every added birthday candle on my cake, not only do I get the gift of age, I also receive the gift of more responsibility.  As such, I am tasked with remembering all kinds of details with regards to running a family.  I need to remember to pay bills, balance the checkbook, drop off and pick up the kids at a plethora of varying activities , give the pets (all 4 of them) monthly  medications, different doctor's appointments, not to mention do all the grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, organizing, get to my part-time job and work on my blog!  I have a lot of distractions, all the time.  Heck, as I type this one of my favorite distraction's is jumping all over me, singing in my ear!  You get the drift...My brain can use a little help in the focus and recollection departments.  

 I've been taking this supplement for about 2 weeks.  Some improvements have been dually noted regarding attention and memory.  I feel more on task and ready to get things done.  No jitters or side-effects to speak of.  I expect to gain more development with continued use.

My Fast Acting Advil couldn't have come at a better time.  My poor daughter recently had to undergo the extraction of 4 impacted wisdom teeth.  Of course they sent her home with prescribed medication, but she was also in need of supplemental pain relief.  Fast Acting Advil helped to control the pain.

 

Thanks Advil  #FastAdvil #Sponsored 

Valentia Even Glow Serum

 

I received the above product timely and in perfect condition from the Seller.

 

I LOVE THIS SERUM!!!  First of all the key ingredients all promote wonderful things.  Things that your fairy godmother would grant you.  Faster regenerating skin, protection from environmental stressors, activates collagen production for a younger, firmer and brighter you!  Seriously, this Vitamin C Serum smells great.  If I were to ask you if Vitamin C has a smell, what would you answer.   Oranges, right  This is exactly what Valentia Even Glow Serum with 20% Vitamin C smells like.  An Orange.  After I washed my face, I followed the directions and shook up the bottle really good before applying.  I put a small amount on my palm to start.  As soon as I started applying the serum to my facial skin, I immediately noticed the smell of citrus.  After the application it felt a little sticky.  I gave it a few minutes to soak in and that's when I noticed a glow.   This Serum may me the One! 

 

I must admit, I've tried a lot of beauty products lately and I think all of them have great attributes.  I think its good to alternate products   

 

No joke, after applying Valentia Even Glow Serum I used a moisturizer and that was it.  No make-up.  It felt great.  I felt great.  My skin felt great!

Organic Matcha by Kiss Me Organics

I recently received Organic Matcha by Kiss Me Organics to try out with my diet.  I decided I was going to add this to my already fully packed ritual of Garcinia Cambogia and Green Coffee Bean Extract to really kick my weigh-loss into overdrive!


I awoke this morning and decided I would start my day off with an Organic Matcha Latte. Tasted great.  I added a little whipped cream to it but hey, a girl's gotta live a little, right! The real test was trying it out Au Jus.  I decided to mix a 1/2 tsp of Organic Matcha into a bottle of water.  A little put off (and afraid) of the now green and murky look of the once clear and crisp looking water, I proceeded with caution.  I hesitantly took a whiff and a swig with eyes clenched tight expecting to spit it out!   To my surprise and utmost gratitude their was no taste or smell.  Tasted just like good ole plain water.

I will have to expeiriment longer with the product to see if I notice an improvement to my skin's health but I must admit increased energy and focus were dully noted!
