TheMagicLift Wrinkle Filler

I have wanted to try the Magic Life Wrinkle Filler for quite some time. The first time I tried this product I used just a little bit without makeup on. I could tell a difference in just a short time. My under eye area tightened up a bit and I did notice a small improvement with the bags under my eyes- they were actually reducing!

The next time I used the Magic Lift product, I used my power foundation over top of it after it dried and it worked very well. I couldn’t tell that I had used the Magic Lift product and my face looked so great, for once.

I haven’t tried the product with liquid foundation yet, but will eventually and update this review. I typically just use powder foundation and eye makeup. But that being said, this product worked well under that and lasted for most of the day. I was pretty impressed with the results I achieved and loved the way my face looked after use. If only the results were permanent!


I really like this product and love that it comes in little containers. You just need to twist the cap to get the product out and once you are done with the product, you can turn the cap around to pop back into place for future use. This is a great way to save product as there isn’t any waste.

This product is a great way to temporarily reduce the look of wrinkles, fine lines, and bags. If you want to look great for an event, or just to go out, this product will work wonders for you!

I did receive this product for free or at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. I was not compensated in any other way and all opinions are my own!

YALMEH Glorify Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion


About:

Yalmeh Glorify Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion is a powerful antioxidant. It protects and prevents of the formation of free radicals in sun exposed skin. Lightens spots, discoloration, refines skin texture and reduces wrinkle formation as well as existing wrinkles. Vitamin C is rapidly gaining popularity in skin care. It is appears to be just as effective as ascorbic acid in the stimulation of collagen production.

Vitamin E helps skin look younger by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant. It also helps protect skin from harmful free radicals in the environment.

LUXURIOUS FEEL AND RESULTS WITH VITAMIN C LOTION: The Vitamin C lotion has an advanced formula for the delicate skin to reverse the signs of aging. It is soft and feels soothing when you put it on your face. In fact, some have described the feeling as luxurious. It is not greasy. 

Formulated for Quick Absorption. Vitamin C has proven to be an essential ingredient in restorative skin care.

Review:

I’ve been enjoying Yalmeh products and this one is no different. This particular Yalmeh product came in an orange tube with 15 grams of a nice white creamy lotion. The lotion had a lovely scent to it, almost floral.

Yalmeh’s Glorify Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion Goes on my skin very smoothly and doesn’t feel greasy at all. It also absorbs quickly and leaves a pleasant scent afterwards. You only need a very small amount to cover your face, which is nice. A small tube will last a long time.

I did not have any skin irritations or reactions to this cream and would imagine it would work fine for those with sensitive skin. It’s a very gentle cream and really does a great job at hydrating and moisturizing your skin.

Overall, I really enjoy using this cream and will continue to use it as I love that it’s natural and organic and works beautifully. It keeps my skin soft, moisturized, and healthy looking.

Review:

I’ve been using Pure Luxe Essential Lemon Oil for a couple of weeks now and so far I’ve been very pleased with it. I love that it’s completely nature with no added chemicals or water. This is a very large 4oz bottle filled with pure Lemon oil.

Once I opened the bottle I could smell the strong lemon scent, and I was quite happy. I love the scent of lemons and it always makes me happy. I really like that they have the oil in a dark bottle to help it to last longer. The lid on the bottle was easy to open and close and it comes with a dropper lid to use with the product to dispense the oil.

Lemon oil can be used for a variety of uses: household cleaning, dull skin, acne prone skin, digestive problems, and much more. I like to use it on my skin, I like to add it to water in a spray bottle to spray and sanitize surfaces (just a few drops to the water), and another use I found for it was to put a few drops on a cotton ball and tuck it in my refrigerator to help eliminate odors. It works wonderful for all of these as well as so many more uses.

You can actually just google uses for lemon oil and find a ton of uses for it. Some people add it to perfumes, use it in candle and soap making, some people use it in recipes, etc. The uses for lemon oil are endless!

Pure Luxe has a wonderful Lemon Essential Oil and they see it in a very large bottle that will last you for a long time! You can use it in so many ways, that there will surely be no waste!

LAVO Microdermabrasion Cream/Exfoliating Scrub

About:

LAVO's brand new Microdermabrasion Cream gently grinds away dead skin, helps reduce fine lines, treat sun damage, blemishes, and acne scars. It does an excellent job buffing away dry flaky skin especially during those cold winter months. The cream contains moisturizers and fruit enzymes to keep face hydrated and from drying out. It is a very light non greasy emollient cream.
The cream contains super fine aluminum crystals (feels like fine soft sand on a beach) that really polishes up your skin and actually making your skin lighter and brighter without the use of chemicals.

This is a professional quality microdermabrasion product; like the ones used in many spas across the US and around the world. Use it at home 1-2 times a week.

This product is very simple to use- Just scoop out with finger and rub with a circular motion on face for 1-2 minutes. Your skin will be very soft and will have a nice glow.

Made in USA

Note: Not for use on Rosacea, pustule acne (pimples), open sores, and other skin ailments.

Review:

I first tested this microdermabrasion cream on my arm to be sure I wasn’t going to have any reactions or irritations to it. I had absolutely no issues with the cream, so I felt good about using it on my face. I found it interesting how much different my arm had looked after using the product on it compared to my other arm. I almost considered using it on my other arm to make it look more even.

I want ahead and used it on my face the next day and found it to be a very simple process. Like it says, I just scooped some product out on my finger and with a circular motion; I rubbed it on my face for a couple of minutes. It did not feel rough or scratchy at all on my face.

I rinsed my face clean, which was an easy process. It wasn’t difficult to get the cream off and all of the particles. My face felt super clean and smooth afterwards.

I definitely could tell my skin looked much brighter and younger looking. It was easy to do, and I loved being able to do it at home myself.

If you’d like to do an at home microdermabrasion for yourself, try LAVO’s Microdermabrasion Cream! It’s absolutely fantastic and can be found on Amazon.com

Softy Hand Sanitizer Wipes for Hands and Surface


About:

150 ct. EXTRA LARGE 7" x 8" wipes. Use fewer wipes to get the job done.

Anti-bacterial formula kills 99.9% of germs in less than 5 seconds.

Use on hands, body, and surfaces. Alcohol-free. Vitamin E + Aloe.

Soft & thick quilted fabric for a plush, pillowy feel. Strong enough to hold a 12-kg kettlebell.

Citrus Fresh Scent. Made in the USA.

Review:

I always, always have a stash of various anti-bacterial wipes around the house, in the car, in my purse, etc. I like to make sure my kitchen counters are clean, bathroom surfaces are clean, my kids are clean, and so on. Things are always getting messy or sticky and I like to always be prepared.
I was very intrigued about this product as it’s advertised for both surfaces and hands. I thought that was pretty unique and multi-purposeful. I love the idea of a wipe that can clean my counter and my kid. That would be great! While I can’t carry a huge jug of wipes in my purse, I can have these around the house vs. these and other products for hands.

The container they came in was much larger than I had expected. That made me happy! I love getting a good value. I opened the tub and threaded the first wipe through the opening, which was a fairly easy process. I noticed the wipes were very soft and had nice moisture to them. I think these wipes feel and work great as a hand/face wipe, but as a cleaning wipe, they seem a little thin.

They are strong, but they are just too thin for me to really scrub with. They do fine wiping off crumbs from surfaces, etc. but if you have stuck on goo, these don’t quite work as well as I would think they should. But other than that I do like these wipes.   

These are great wipes for hands/faces and for light dirt on surfaces. They are okay for sanitizing surfaces like doorknobs and toilet seats, etc. but if you have some grime to scrub off, they don’t seem to do it. I would purchase these wipes again in the future when I run out as I do like that they are multi-purposeful and soft on hands and faces.

You can get these Softy Wipes on Amazon.com

Review:

I’ve tried Pure Body Natural products before and loved them. This particular product comes in a cute little bottle with a pumper, which I love. I opened it to smell it and see what it looked like. It didn't really have much of a smell if at all, which is kind of nice. It was also a nice consistency as well.

When I used it, I first washed my face and towel dried it. I used pumper to pump out a small amount of product into my hand and used my fingertips to gently apply it to my face and my neck. It absorbed quickly and I let it dry before applying the rest of my facial products. I had no sticky after feeling and it felt nice and cooling on my skin as well.

I really feel this product is helping my skin to stay and look young! My skin looks and feels great and I feel good knowing I am using a great product on my skin to keep it healthy and young-looking.
I also really love that this product is made in the USA and in an FDA certified facility.

InstaNatural Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) serum



About:
InstaNatural Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) serum is well tolerated by all skin types!
• Can be used on normal, dry, oily and sensitive skin.
• Lightweight formula that gets absorbed quickly.
• Achieve a youthful appearance.
• Gain clear, smoother and brighter skin.

Review:
I’ve been trying to find a product with a nice thick formula that can moisturize my face as well as help with redness. InstaNatural’s Niacinamide, Vitamin B3, Serum is actually what I am looking for and then some. It’s also good for acne, skin lightning, helps to firm and plump skin, and helps hyperpigmentation.  I was excited to try this product! This product is like many products in one, which is great on the wallet and my face. I use a variety of products and with InstaNaturals Niacinamide; I can probably eliminate a few.

This is a 2oz bottle, which is a pretty good size. You only need a little bit each use, so this bottle will actually last a long time. I love products that last a long time!

This Niacinamide Serum is great for all skin types, so there is no worry about that. I have combination skin- oily and dry at the same time (how does that even make sense?). This product doesn’t make me oilier or drier; it actually balances out my skin if anything! I can feel my skin getting softer, brighter, and healthier. I like that this formula is light, but thick at the same time. It goes on smoothly and it’s very light and absorbs quickly.

Overall, I have to say that this product is a keeper. I think I will definitely be using this product in place of a couple of others I had been using. I am a big fan of B vitamins in general, and putting that directly on my face makes me feel that I am doing my skin some good! My skin is softer, healthier looking, more balanced as far as the combination part goes, and overall better. This product is really wonderful!

You can get a bottle of InstaNatural’s Niacinamide Vitamin B3 Serum on Amazon.com. If you don’t like it, no worries, they offer a money back guarantee- no questions asked. I don’t see you not liking it, however!

Dr. Song Vitamin C Serum


About:

Dr Song Medical is a medical cosmetic laboratory that originally manufactured products for professionals, doctors, and medical facilities.  The creation of Amazon has allowed manufactures like us, to easily get products directly into the hands of consumers, which allows professional quality products at a reasonable price.  Dr Song Medical products are made in the USA and is FDA compliant and a provider of professional products.

Review:

Dr. Song Vitamin C Serum contains 20% Vitamin C, boosted with Vitamin E, hyaluronic acid and aloe vera for a smooth velvet finish on the skin that many other vitamin c serums cannot replicate.  This vitamin C serum has been refined through rigorous testing from dozens of doctors and professionals within the cosmetic industry and comes with a 365 day money back guarantee. 

Don't forget that for the best shelf life you should store away from sunlight and extreme heat.  It is easy to add Dr Song vitamin C into your everyday skin care regimen too. Use it once per day and remember that little bit goes a long way and only a thin layer is needed. This high quality serum greatly enhances any moisturizer, so make sure to apply a good moisturizer immediately after using it. If using with Retinol or Retin-A, apply the serum first and allow drying for 10-15 minute before applying for the best results.

I’ve been using this product for a couple of weeks and have noticed results. Dr. Song says that quick results aren’t completely uncommon, but not to worry if you don’t see immediate results as it usually takes at least a month to see best results. This product works great for all skin types and feels great on your skin. I also had no reactions to this serum either.

To use Dr. Song Vitamin C Serum you just apply a thin layer to a clean and dry face and allow it a minute or two soak in. That’s it. Once it has soaked in, you can apply a good moisturizer and continue on to your usually routine. This product is a nice light, non-greasy formula that feels natural and is wonderful on the skin.

Review:

I’ve said it many times and I will say it again: I love anything with Dead Sea minerals! I swear by dead sea salt or mud and minerals. So when I received this product, Barefaced Dead Sea Mud Mask, to review, I was tickled pink! I absolutely believe in the wonders of Dead Sea minerals.

When I first opened the container, it looked like what you would expect a mud mask to look like- mud. It was a nice thick and dark brown color. This particular mud mask was a little different than others I have tried before as this one smelled more like mud. It was very earthy in smell. I figure if it’s supposed to be a mud mask, it should smell like mud, right? Barefaced mask has a hint of lavender to it, but for the most part, it was good old mud that I smelled. I love that the name Barefaced fits right in with the natural product of mud. This is a nice organic product that is wonderful for your skin.

This particular mud mask goes on very smooth and is pretty thick, which is nice as it stays on where you put it instead of running down your face. I noticed a slight tingly feeling when I put it on my face, it wasn’t unpleasant at all, but I wonder if it might irritate very sensitive skin. In any event, I left it on for a good 15 minutes to dry and do its magic before I attempted to rinse it off.

I used some nice warm water to rinse it off, and it did take a little bit of scrubbing to get it all off of my face. But once I was able to get it off, I could immediately tell how great my face felt! It felt so much softer and smoother. I could tell that a few of the dry spots on my face were much better- the little skin flakes that had been there were gone and it was much smoother and softer in those spots.

Another awesome thing that I noticed was that some of the redness that I had in my face was gone. I get so annoyed with the redness in my face and this particular mask actually helped me get rid of some of that. I just looked more radiant overall.

Overall, this Barefaced Dead Sea Mud Mask is fantastic. It’s natural, organic, smells and looks like mud and really makes a tremendous difference in the look and feel of your skin- it did for me! I think it’s my new favorite mud mask! I will be using this mask weekly and can’t wait to see how it works out in the long run, because in the short run it’s been fantastic!

You can get this Barefaced Dead Sea Mud Mask on Amazon currently on sale for $24.95. Remember, you are getting what you pay for!

Review:

This product came beautifully packaged in a little velvet-like bag and was nicely bubble wrapped for protection. When I opened the container, I found the cream to be a yellow color with a very nice and thick consistency.

I waited until the evening to actually rub it on my face as I wanted overnight treatment. It went on my skin very easily and takes a little bit to soak in, but it does. It also doesn’t leave a greasy oily look to your face either. I really dislike when I have a cream or lotion on my face at night and it gets all over my pillow getting oil/grease everywhere. This product doesn’t do that at all, which is a huge plus in my book.

I woke up the next morning and my skin was super smooth and silky. I couldn’t believe how amazing my skin felt. It was so soft, smooth, silky and just incredibly awesome! I’ve since been using this product for a couple of weeks and have noticed a huge difference in the overall appearance of my skin. The fine lines around my eyes have softened, and my skin is consistently soft and smooth.

Overall, I recommend this product to anyone who wants to deeply nourish and moisturize their skin. This product works wonderfully!

Pure Luxe Vitamin C Serum

Pure Luxe’s 20% Vitamin C + E + Hyaluronic Acid is the absolute highest quality vitamin C serum available

Vitamin C serum is proven to stimulate collagen and reduce fine line and wrinkles

This serum is derived from 98% natural and 72% organic ingredients

Made in the USA In an advanced FDA certified facility

Review:
The first thing I noticed about this serum was its beautiful packaging. I think pretty packaging makes me feel better about the product. If a company is willing to put effort into creating an attractive packaging, they must be willing to put the same effort into the product.

I’ve tried several different vitamin C serums and like most of them, but this product is great. This product goes on easily and smoothed into my skin quickly. Some serums are very thin and you need to use more of it, however this one is a little thicker and you don’t need as much as some other brands. I like being able to use less and still get great results.

I’ve used this product for a couple of weeks (morning and evening after washing my face) and have found it to work great. I love how smooth my skin feels, how soft it is, and how I seem to notice a slight reduction of my fine lines. I just use a nice thin layer- you don’t need much! I also love knowing that this product is helping my skin from all the free radicals caused by sun damage. I get a lot of sun, so I’m happy to be able to use a product to help protect my skin.

This product also has no smell and is very gentle. I think this product would be great for any skin type or tone. Even people with sensitive skin would be able to use this product without any sort of irritation.

You can only get this product on Amazon.com. It currently sells for $19.90 (prices do occasionally change).

I received this product and was very excited to try it out. It came in Adovia’s normally beautiful packaging. It was a little banged up (the box it was in), but that wasn’t a big deal. It’s the product itself that I care about most. I took it out and noticed it came in a nice glass bottle with a pumper.

I wanted to try it out right away, so I made sure to wash my face and dry it. After it dried, I attempted to pump some of the product onto my fingers and found that the pumper did not work. I was bummed out about that. I ended up unscrewing the cap to rub some of the product on my fingers from the “straw” part of the pumper. This is a little inconvenient.

So after that whole event, I finally got around to getting to try the product on my face. It went on nice and easily and absorbed quickly. You can easily wear this product under moisturizers and makeup. It’s a nice non-greasy creamy serum. I’ve been using it for a while now and have noticed my skin is softer and some of my fine lines seem to be reduced. I think the vitamin C in this product has helped with that part. The softness of my skin is wonderful and I truly believe in the power of the Dead Sea Salts.

The product really doesn’t have much of a scent and would be great for all skin types and for those with various skin issues. I think with long term use, this product would really make my skin look young and vibrant. I can’t wait to find out!

Despite the issues I’ve had with the pumper not working on the bottle, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who wants to reduce the signs of aging (fine lines, loss of elasticity, etc). It works great!

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Sodium: Improves the skin's metabolism

Review:
The Adovia Dead Sea Salt soap can be used on your face or body (which is like a 2 for 1 bonus!). I actually used it on my face and body as I’m pretty dry all over. I typically don’t use bar soaps because they tend to dry my skin and make it feel really gross and unnatural. This soap is not made of unnatural ingredients, so I knew it wouldn't be a problem. I love Adovia products and this one is no different.

I have been using this soap for about a week and have already noticed a difference in my skin. My skin has been so dry that it was almost flaking. I noticed that my skin has been softer, smoother, and more hydrated feeling. I also noticed that the almost flaking appearance has gone. I have also had no reactions to this soap at all, and it certainly has not left my skin feeling tight and gross like most other bar soaps do.

This soap initially had a very strong scent after I took it out of the box, however when using it, it’s not at all strong and has a really nice, light scent that lingers in the bathroom and on your skin after using it. I really like that it leaves a nice light scent vs. a very heavy strong scent. I can’t really figure out what the scent is but it really is lovely.

Adovia’s soap also lathers up nicely and washes away clean. You don’t have that feeling afterwards that it’s still on your skin. You feel nice and clean feeling after rinsing it off.  You really don’t need to try hard to get it to lather; it does so with little soap. After using a week, the bar still looks about new! I can’t believe how long this bar of soap is lasting. I’m also guilty of using this soap to shave with since it does lather up so nicely! It does work very, very well for shaving I have found. I think I might prefer it to shave creams/gels. I also love that it’s natural! I’m all about natural!

In any event, I have to say that this is one fantastic bar of soap! You can get it at Amazon.com for $11. You would think that’s a lot for a bar of soap, however what you are getting is one fantastic bar of soap that can be used all over your body and seems to last forever!

InstaNatural’s Youth Express Age-Defying Moisturizer

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

InstaNatural’s Youth Express Age-Defying Moisturizer can help to:

  • Reduce appearance of fine line, wrinkles and other signs of aging     
  • Moisturize the skin from deep within    
  • May be used under eyes or around entire face    
  • Give you better skin tone and a better complexion          
  • Regain the brightness and glow lost with age

This is another one of InstaNatural’s great products!

This product is very easy to apply and goes on just like any other moisturizer would. One pump gives a lot of moisturizer, and a little goes a long way. I found it was better to not depress the pump all the way down. This moisturizer isn’t super lightweight, but it’s not so heavy that you can feel it weighing you down, however if you apply a little too much, you might feel a little greasy/sticky. I didn’t have a problem using a small amount. It absorbed into my skin after a few moments and felt rather pleasant and had the slightest of tingling sensations (which I love).

This product did a great job of moisturizing my face and really helped with the dryness I had on my face. I also applied it to my neck and upper chest. I found it helped with the tightness my skin felt from being dry. I had been very itchy from the dryness, but after using this moisturizer for a few days, I didn’t have that problem.

Youth Express Age Defying Moisturizer Cream can be worn under makeup with no problems. It’s also good for all skin types and is 98% natural, which is fantastic! I hate the idea of putting something mostly unnatural on my skin. This moisturizer can also help you achieve firmer and smoother skin.

The directions say to use twice a day, morning and evening for normal to oily skin types. For sensitive skin, they recommend using only once a day in the evening. Also, they caution that this product contains AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid) that may make your skin more sensitive to the sun in which case you should wear sun screen.

Azure Naturals Ultimate Vitamin C Serum Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Vitamin C serums are very popular, and for a good reason; they work! While you can take vitamin C supplements, it’s typically best for your face if you apply it topically to directly treat signs of aging.

This product has 20% vitamin C, 11% hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, organic aloe, amino complex, organic jojoba oil, and ferulic acid.

This product is great for sun damaged skin, it helps fade sunspots and to improve discoloration, and helps to protect from future damage. This product also helps refine skin texture, visibly plumps and firm skin, stimulates collagen production, and helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

Review:
So I’ve been using this product for a while now and have found it to really work when it comes to softening my skin, softening my fine lines and it does give my face a nice healthy glow. I really love how light and thin this product is. It absorbs quickly into my skin and I only need a small amount to cover my face.

I’m also starting to notice a few spots on my face starting to face. I am very excited about this. I can’t wait to continue this product to see how much more it can help my skin. I really do have to say my skin feels so much better and looks better since I’ve been using this product. I’ve actually gotten a couple comments about me looking radiant! I know this product is working.

I think after a couple months of using this product (and I’m sure there is many, many months’ worth of product in this little bottle), I will see a definite and huge improvement- more so than I’ve seen already. I would definitely give this product a try!

There really aren’t any negatives to this product. While I can’t say that it will work wonders for everyone, I can say it did work very well for me.  They do offer a 100% money back guarantee if you aren’t satisfied. I really don’t think anyone would need to take them up on that offer!
