Help for thin or thinning hair

Aging and changing up your skin care routine.
This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.
Overall I was very happy with this cream and found the best time to put it on was after washing and drying my feet. I usually put it on before turning in for the night so it can work while I sleep. What I love about this cream is that it is made in the USA and is animal cruelity free.
Currently I have been trying out lotions and creams for my body, hands, feet, and face to see what will work best for my aging skin. I think we have most of them narrowed down but I can say what works for one person may not work for you. Everyone I have spoken to has suggested a different cream or lotion to try that worked best for them. Hardly any of them worked for me.
No one suggested this for my feet I found it by doing this review. You just never know where you answers will come from. If you are dealing with dry skin don't give up there has to be a product out there that will work for you.

From Dry to Supple
My daughter has been dealing with sore dry cracked lips. It really came out of no where an in the middle of the summer. Nothing seemed to be working. We were lucky enough to be able to try out pureauty naturals collagen lip mask which if you look from the first treatment to day 9 of treatment you can see just how much her lips have healed.
Of course I am no scientist to know if the lip mask really did anything or not but we were using our regular lip balms with no results and the pictures and her smile are enough for me to encourage me to keep this on hand in the future just in case.
We love that it is made in the USA, is cruelty free, and is easy to apply. It has a minty scent but didn't cause any irritation to my daughter while using which is a big factor when you are trying to heal something. Lips are so delicate.

Remove Makeup with no Chemicals
I am always trying to replace chemical items with non chemical items when ever I find a good product. My daughter has been asking for one of these micro fiber makeup remover cloths for quite a while. I am glad I was finally able to get her one and one for myself.
What I love about this is that it is reusable over and over again. This is microfiber so I suggest washing in a laundry bag and hanging to dry to keep it in tip to shape. I can't compare them to other brands because this is the first we have had but so far they have worked well for us.
If you are interested you can get this 2 pack set below.

Putting on Makeup just got easier
Add caption |
The 5x side is great for brows, or getting stray hairs that don't belong on our face. I love that I can see up close so I can be sure to get my eyeliner on well.
I also love that this works with Batteries 4AA (not included) and an AC adapter which is included. You can change the brightness of the light with just a turn of the knob so you can see what your makeup will look like in different lighting. Now I just might try some new eye shadow looks for a nice date night with my husband.

Quick Comeback Masque
What was really neat that this is a product comes so you can mix it yourself. There is a pod with liquid in the top and a bottom chamber that has what looks like a piece of cotton. When you are ready to do your mask, you push down on the top which breaks the seal and it mixes with the cotton ball like item to make a gel which you put on your face in upward strokes.
This was easy to put on with plenty to do your whole face. You leave it on for 15-20 minutes then wet and rub in, then rinse off. My face felt amazing after, very smooth, and I could feel it had become more firm. I did miss a few spots when I rinsed but after video below I did go back and rinse again. Before bed I added my regular facial cream but no other facial treatments. My face more then a week later still feels great.
I would buy this again as it does what it says and would love to try more of Alana Mitchell products in the future.

Ashley Bridget to the rescue
I know there are others like myself who go back and forth all day from having their hair down to having it up in a ponytail or messy bun. I hate having a ponytail around my wrist because they aren't really stylish and they often leave a mark on my easily bruised wrists.
With a hair tie bracelet like this one from Ashley Bridget you can have style and function as well as versatility. You can wear it with the open side up or down, change the color of the band to match your outfits, and alway have a hair tie with you for those moments when it is time to get your hair up and out of the way to get down to work.
If you are looking for a great gift for a teen or anyone you know who love to wear ponytails this comes in a nice gift box that really shows you care. I love my bracelet and wear it almost everyday. It gives me complete freedom to know I have a hair tie with me when I need it.

Charcoal for Teeth?
Monday, July 31, 2017
Feathers Everywhere
My daughter like myself prefers to wear French hooks over posts earrings. She has a nice pair of peacock hair clips that she already was given a year or more ago, so getting these earrings made her say hey they look like my hair clips. Sure enough they are both from the same company. Awesome, because they have lived up to lots of use over the time she has had them.
Growing up when I was a teen I always wanted my hair died to look like feathers. To me these earrings are even better because they blend in with your hair and can be taken off or on when the mood strikes.
These earrings were handcrafted like many of the items I see on their site. This means a bit of love have gone into each pair.

KAMOTA beauty makeup sponges
I love that this set comes with 3 full eggs and 3 eggs with a flat side. I love the flat eggs for getting near to my eyes, lips, ears etc, while the full eggs are used all over my face and neck. Very soft to use on your delicate facial skin.
Remember to wet your sponge so it does not soak up so much makeup that it is wasting it. You will see the sponges are bigger and soften once used in the right way. When I told my daughter they are meant to be wet when used she was amazed and has said it made a big difference in how the product goes on, as well as using a lot less of her product to do the same job she was doing dry.

Instapeel
Instapeel is super easy to use. Just hop in the shower or bath and let skin get moist for at least 5 minutes and then open your packet up and put a little on your fingertips. Once on skin then rub back and forth till skin stops peeling. What I like most about this item is that it only attacks dead skin and not the new skin that is already there. This was a big concern for me and the reason why I used it on my feet first instead of my face.
To be honest besides using facial products and masks I am still concerned with using something like this on my face but after seeing tons of videos etc I would go with this form over all others at this time. This can be used on your face, feet, elbows, knees, etc.
I am going to give one of these packs to my husband to use on his elbows and hope to update at a later time the difference before and after for those as well. It will be interesting to see.
Earthen Instapeel can be found on their site or at my affiliate link below

BEESSENTIAL
I shop at Shop Rite all of the time and have never noticed their product so I am going to make sure that I look extra close next time I am there to see what they have in stock and if I still can't find them I will as customer service.
My lips feel so smooth and this is not drying like I have found some lip balms to be. I know they aren't supposed to make your lips feel dry but some actually have this effect on me. So far Beessential lip balm just makes them feel better.
Right now on their site this scent or flavor because it is flavored is not available but they have lots of other scents or flavors to pick from as well as their whole product line including gift baskets filled with a mixture of of their products.
