Put A Ring On It

I was really excited to try this Silicone Ring.  So many professions don't allow rings to be worn at work, and we all have heard the stories of someone getting their ring caught on something and almost cutting their finger off.  My husband is an electrician -- this ring is perfect for him to wear during work hours.  Looks good too!  What do you think? #XhibitYourZeal http://www.amztk.com/xyzliconepromo

No Pain...Just Good Sleep

I bought this Copper Infused Elbow Sleeve and Brace and was able to do so at a discounted price (Thanks Tomoson) in exchange for my honest review.  Which those who know me will tell you that will always be the case.  I have had tendonitis and carpal tunnel for years.  I had surgery for the carpal tunnel on my right hand, but haven't had the left hand done yet.  The tendonitis is on my right arm.  At night my left arm will go numb (and it wakes me up).  I put the sleeve on and ... no pain just sleep!  I don't know how it does it...but it works.  I need to buy another for my right arm because last night I kept moving it from one to the other!  The brace is perfect for putting pressure in just the right spot to keep the tendonitis from aching.  This one is a winner! #wimielbowsolution

A Moscow Mule

What is a Moscow Mule?  It's a cocktail made with vodka, lime juice, and ginger beer.  And it is almost always served in a copper mug.  This sounds like a drink my son would enjoy (I'm not a ginger beer fan).  But I do love the copper mug.  And I found this one that is very unique on Amazon.  Inspired Basics Solid Moscow Mule Copper Mug Hammered Type Moscow Mule Mug .  I did purchase this one at a discounted price in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.  No problem, because I love the hammer copper look, the light weight, and the way it chills and makes drinks feel colder!  http://www.amztk.com/verticalmug  #coppermug

I've Got A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts

Coconut oil has so many uses.  It is great for baking (and healthy for you!).   It makes a great moisturizer (especially when my eczema is bothering me.  And my favorite use if for oil pulling.  In case you don't know what oil pulling is all about; let me enlighten you.  From what I understand, it has been used for this purpose for centuries.  Each morning I take 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and swish it back and forth (pulling) between my teeth.  Sounds totally gross, but it's not.  You do this for 10-20 minutes and then spit it out - then brush teeth as you normally would.  The coconut oil helps collect plaque, bacteria, etc. and you remove it from your mouth.  Although my dentist won't admit this is the reason, since I have been doing this, I have had much better check-ups!  I recently found a new favorite brand 'Healthworks Extra Virgin Coconut Oil '.  It has a much smoother texture and a much better flavor.  It has a pleasant slight coconut scent and taste.  I purchased mine on Amazon.  Give it a try!

This product is now part of my daily routine.


At my last facial, the facialist suggested I start using a Vitamin C Serum. She told me it would help my skin's elasticity and protect against pollutants in the environment and make my skin more healthy and young looking. Well when I had an opportunity to try Naturel Commodity Vitamin C Serum+Hyaluronic Acid I jumped at the chance. I've been using it for over a week and I have to say that this is a product that I will continue using. I can tell a difference in the way my face feels and looks. My face feels softer and more hydrated, and I actually think it looks firmer after using this product. I don't know why I waited so long to try a Vitamin C Serum and I'm so glad I found this one.  Check out my before and after pictures.
