ADOVIA - Dead Sea Salt Soap {Review}


Introducing Adovia Dead Sea Salt Soap which can be used on face and body. Made from all natural ingredients of palm kernel oil, dead sea salts, magnesium, sodium, potassium, demineralized water and natural extract this is the best bar soap that I have ever used for both my face and body. I usually separate the two because regular bar soap dries out skin very quickly and my face is extremely sensitive and this will cause me to break out.

This soap not only cleanses but also continues to keep skin hydrated and moisturized immediately after use. Because of its natural ingredients this soap is recommended for all skin types. Upon opening the box to try this soap (mind you I was skeptikal about using a bar soap on my face), it looked raw and although it was smooth to touch it still didn't look like a regular bar of soap. The smell was invigorating and it captured my attention as soon as I started washing my face. This soap does not lather much so do not expect it to. Too much lather strips skin from moisture whereas this soap infuses your face with moisture and hydration. The process is rather simple to use, wet face/body, wet soap, apply to face and rinse. Your face/body feels soft and smooth to touch. When rinsing the soap off your face/body it does not leave a oily or sticky residue behind which most soaps do.

With all the benefits the dead sea has to offer and the fact that there are no additional chemicals, it is a go to product for beneficial daily. It is sold on Amazon for $18.00 and although it is pricey for a soap, it does not lather much so it will last long. I love using natural products and believe that they are better for you; this soap has proven that even with combination skin you can get a good cleanse that does not dry out your skin.

Adovia - Mineral Lift Serum {Review}

I am definitely a fan of the natural ingredients when it comes to face products in particular. However, Adovia from Cleopatra Choice has been amazing thus far so I decided to test out their Mineral Lift Serum.


 Their products have never given me any problems and I have and will continue to use them. They are high quality and their ingredients are usually all natural. This mineral lift serum is a blend of natural ingredients and modern science in order to get the most effective formula that will maximize lift. This serum contains dead sea water with its minerals, green tea and vitamin c. If you have ever used vitamin c on your face you already know that it rejuvenates your look quickly as it absorbs into your skin. Dead sea minerals is even better with all its healing properties that improves skin elasticity.

The bottle is only about 1 oz but you do not to apply a lot to make a huge improvement. I only squeeze no more 2 pumps and apply in a circular motion. It has a very light pleasant smell and the white gel texture is very smooth for easy application.

As it has been added to my nightly routine, my face has been less dry and gotten a more even complexion overall. As I get older you want to start taking steps to help keep your skin looking young and this is the product that would help immensely.

Get it on Amazon now

Dead Sea Mud Facial Mask - {REVIEW}


The Dead Sea has many benefits so I love using products that contain the dead sea mud and all its natural ingredients. PURE & Essential Minerals Dead Sea Mud Mask is a great and highly recommended mask for all skin types. I have sensitive skin and using this mask roughly once a week to give my face just the extra boost of healing after a hard week. This mask is organic and of course cruelty free (I love animals) so that is an added benefit to the amazing healing formula within.


The texture is thick but can be smoothed onto your face easily and starts working immediately. It may not look great with its dark greyish color but I expect that from sulfuric mud and it doesn't have a scent.


The dead sea mud has over 21 skin healing/reviving minerals that include magnesium, calcium, sulfur, iodine, zinc plus more. These minerals are already present in our body but as we get older we lose them slowly which is why our skin starts to look worn out. Therefore this helps to treat, revive and cleanse our skin to keep us looking young.

This mask has many anti aging properties that tighten pores which you feel immediately once it starts drying. After you wash off your face with the warm cloth you feel that your face has been moisturized fully.



How to Use: 

- Apply a medium layer of Dead Sea mud to the face and upper neck, avoiding the eye area.

- Leave on to dry for 5 to 10 minutes for full absorption of Dead Sea minerals.

- Remove the mask by wetting with warm water and gently rubbing in circular motion for an overall exfoliation.

- Wash away excess mud with warmwater and a washcloth and gently pat skin dry.

When applying avoid eye area


This facial mask is completely natural as seen below:

"Ingredients: Dead Sea Mud, Organic Shea Butter, Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Aloe Vera Juice, Organic Vegetable Glycerin, Organic Jojoba Oil, Hickory Bark Extract, Organic Calendula Oil, Filtered Water, Xanthan Gum, Eucalyptus Oil"

There are no parabens or sulphates, which makes sense that this is a better deal when it comes to facial mask and your skin. This 6oz jar last long with the results you be getting. Get it on Amazon for $29.44 with free shipping for orders over $35.00

Rainbow Bandz Organization Box {Review}



This is the RAINBOW BANDZ ORGANIZATION BOX from Rainbow Bandz. Of course the name says it all, it is an organizer for all your rainbow loom bands and accessories. I have a good size collection of rainbow loom bands of all colors and got really tired of keeping them in clear plastic separate bags. I was so glad to get to try this organization box, so as soon as I received it I started my sorting.
It is a clear box that comes with separate dividers and slotted rows so that you can get the size that you want and need for your bands and/or accessories. This makes setting up your box to your desire very simple. I have roughly about 5000 rainbow loom bands of many different colors that I would have to take from each of the bags to make my bracelets. How annoying that can be..I make the bracelets with my little daughter who loves them on her wrist but between pulling a couple of each color out makes for a mess.
The picture above shows a great example (not mine) of how having rainbow loom bands need to be organized. It is not clustered, visually appealing, color coordinated and of course the best thing is that everything is in one place. Now this example shows equally sorted compartments with one longer compartment for your loom board and accessories.

This picture is what my organizer looks like. I have large amounts of bands and therefore my compartments are not as equally divided. However I now have organization with my loom bands which makes enjoying quality time with my daughter less stressful.

The great thing I love about this organization box is that it really isnt necessarily for only rainbow loom bands but I can see you using it as a jewelry case also. It snaps close really tightly so that what is inside will remain in there. It is also very durable because mine has taken a couple of tumbles without even moving the bands around. Everything stayed in its compartment.

It retails on Amazon for $9.99 (free shipping for customers with prime) with a money back guarantee. You will be very impressed with the quality and ease of this box.

Enjoy!

EBOOK - Argan Oil: Quick Guide to Best Uses of Argan Oil for Hair, Skin and Nails - {Review}


Ebook - Kindle Version
Author: Ana Valeri
38 Pages
$2.99 on Amazon
Brand: Bebelush

This ebook is a short yet very informative book that tells in great detail about the benefits of Argan Oil aka Liquid Gold. At the beginning of the book you learn about the origins of argan oil, how and what the moroccan women used it for. Ana Valeri (author) goes in to the detail of the tedious process of getting the argan oil out of the nut kernels.

Before reading this book I heard lots of benefits of argan oil but the way Ana Valeri explains (with detail) each ingredient found in the argan oil that I really came to understand why argan oil is called liquid gold. Within the argan oil you get vitamin e, polyphenols, essentail fatty acids and many more which are all good for the skin, hair and nails.

This book also has do-it-yourself hair and skin homemade masks that are less expensive and more effective than buying. After reading this book, I do not believe you will ever go back to using anything but the real thing. Argan oil by far is one amazing oil with great benefits such as heals skin infections, alleviating itchy scalp, clearing acne, nail strengthening plus many more.

Nothing natural never comes cheap but before buying into the cheaper substitute think about the loss of all the great benefits.

Dead Sea Salt Deep Hair Conditioner - {Review}

I have fallen in love with the brand Adovia. Their products are great and work amazing based on all I have used thus far. I am now using their Dead Sea Salt Deep Hair Conditioner along with their shampoo.

If you follow my blog post or even have heard about the dead sea, you would  know about all the benefits that the minerals from the dead sea has to offer. This conditioner contains a blend of dead sea minerals, wild flowers and essential oils to protect your hair and keep it healthy.

I currently use it in conjunction with the sister shampoo and this leaves my hair soft (manageable) and looking naturally healthy. It smells great and has a silky texture to touch which makes me feel like I am putting in a premium product which I love in addition. 


This product has slowed the appearance of dandruff and flaky scalp. With the added moisture I do not worry about passing a comb through my hair and having white flakes all across my shoulders. 


Much attention should be given to the number of minerals that are in this bottle from magnesium to calcium to sulfur and iodine plus many others. All these help in the rebuilding process of getting back healthier hair. For those who have sensitive scalp like I do, it should not affect you in any way (because I myself have sensitive scalp)

Get it on Amazon for $18.75 with Free Shipping.

LITTER GENIE - Cat Litter Disposal System

As a member of the Litter Geniuses crowd on Crowdtap, I was chosen to sample the LITTER GENIE - Cat Litter Disposal System and with 2 cats I was stocked. I am used to having 1 cat around for years and recently (within the past year) my family brought in another cat name Judy. Now I have the older cat named Meimei and the younger cat named Judy which we taught to use the litter box (what a hassle).

Lazy Meimei


When I received it, the first thing I thought of was our diaper genie, which was a must have for both of my kids ages 5 and 19 months. And right away I said "dang", "duh" why didnt I think of this idea. I clean out my cats litter boxes at minimum three times a week and that means my kitchen garbage pail needs to be thrown out very often. With this new Litter Genie, we are now able to throw out kitchen garbage less per week and therefore less hassle. With all the cat litter being put into this genie, makes the clean up less frustrating and the smell is closed out quickly.








Judy & Meimei





The Litter Genie is actually pretty decor friendly with the white and grey color it blends nicely with my cats for sure. It comes with its own scooper and a side slot to keep it in. It is also small enough with a handle on the back to move around easily.

This is a very convenient must - have for all cat owners. You can get it on Amazon for $14.99 with free shipping for Prime customers and they now have a $5.00 off coupon at check out.



Disclosure: I received this product compliments Crowdtap to test and give my review based on my own assessment.
