Always Have Great Tasting “Flavored” Water with TASTEit Bottles

April 9, 2020 By lyndsinreallife Leave a Comment

We’re going through a weird time right now. Social Distancing, Stay-At-Home orders, business closures, and a shortage of bottled water (among other things). When all this COVID-19 panic became very real, I ordered a water filter and pitcher so I could filter my tap water. But what about a bottle to use for on-the-go, and what about the flavored water I like so much? That’s where TASTEit bottles come in!

flavors in order: mandarin orange, mixed berry, peach, lemon

I love flavored water (especially sparkling) but hate the artificial sweeteners and fake flavors. I don’t want unnecessary calories, additives. carbs, or sugar. I also don’t want to create more waste with plastic bottles or aluminum cans; the earth doesn’t need that. With TASTEit bottles (BPA free), I can reuse them over and over again!

Here’s the really cool part: the flavor (mixed berry, peach, mandarin orange, and lemon) comes from just a scent, not actual flavor! Did you know that 80% of taste is actually smell?

TASTEit utilizes this phenomenon by infusing its lid with all natural fruit flavors so that while drinking water, the scented lid makes our brain think we are drinking water with a hint of fruit flavor.

The bottle comes with a lid that is infused with natural fruit flavors. There are two tips for each bottle/lid: sweet and non-sweet. They both are made with FDA & EU compliant all-natural fruit flavor, plus sweetener for the sweet lid.

It’s really cool how it works! It tastes as if I’m drinking actual flavored water. Great flavor without the calories and sweeteners. Perfect!

TASTEit bottles retail for $24.95 USD, and right now, I can offer you 30% off with code Future30! Approximately $17.47 per bottle (before tax and shipping) is a pretty great deal! Get your bottle at www.tasteithealth.com.

Health for the Holidays: The Ionic Prana Body Brush Makes The Perfect Gift

December 24, 2019 By lyndsinreallife Leave a Comment

The holidays are right around the corner, and if you’re anything like me, you’re probably going to spend those days eating cookies and snacks, plus being extra sedentary while traveling (hello 5-6 hour flight back home). I need to do my best to be and feel healthy, despite the Christmas cookies I’ll be consuming. One way to do this is to consistently use my Ionic Body Brush from Prana Brush!

Dry brushing has long been recommended by those in the health industry due to its incredible health benefits.

Dry Brushing Benefits:

detoxifies the body
improves circulation
eliminates dead skin cells
exfoliates the skin
improves skin tone
aids digestion
reduces and prevents cellulite
increases energy and well-being
stimulates the lymphatic system (which helps eliminate toxins and pathogens that can cause inflammation and illness)

I don’t know about you, but I need ALL of those benefits [insert nervous laugh here]. If I can get even one of those benefits (let’s say, energy and well-being), then it’ll be worth it. SO, I gave it a try!

I chose to use the Prana Brush. Not only is Prana Brush a small business (I always support small businesses when possible!) based in Canada, each brush is handmade with extra-fine ion-charged copper bristles, which naturally create negative ions that protect your body from free radicals. The negative ions from the brush are directly absorbed through the skin.

A Prana Brush is an essential item to have because it takes dry brushing to a whole new level with our unique copper bristles that encourage the direct and immediate absorption of negative ions into your skin. Also, it is very unique because it is antibacterial and unlike most dry brushes, it does not need to be disposed of or replaced regularly. – Jessica, Founder of Prana Brush

I use my Prana Brush after my shower; it soothes my wintry dry skin, and I don’t have to use as much lotion. I highly recommend using a Prana Brush every day!

From Lackluster to Luscious; How Joico’s Defy Damage Line Transformed My Hair

August 8, 2019 By lyndsinreallife 2 Comments

My hair is usually a huge mess. It’s summer in Las Vegas, which means daily temps are over 100°F. Take that heat, add in humidity during Monsoon Season (AKA now), and like I said, my hair turns into a HUGE MESS. My long hair becomes frizzy and unruly. I have dry, damaged hair, yet I have oily hair at the same time (what?!). Not to mention, the sun strips my hair dye at alarming rates. I need a really good shampoo, conditioner, conditioning masque, and heat protectant to manage my long locks. Luckily, I discovered the Joico Defy Damage hair care line!

Disclosure: I received a sample of Joico’s Defy Damage hair care line, in exchange for an honest review. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are 100% mine.

I wasn’t familiar with Joico, so I was excited to do some research on this amazing company, and their life-changing hair products (that are sulfate and paraben free!). I was generously offered the Defy Damage Protective Shampoo, Defy Damage Protective Conditioner, Defy Damage Protective Masque, and Defy Damage Protective Shield. I’M IN LOVE!

I’m pretty picky about my hair care products. I don’t like greasy heat shields, oils (usually), and well, okay, I don’t really like any hair products besides shampoo and conditioner. However, I need a masque and heat protectant. I’m being totally honest: these products are PERFECT, especially because they smell so, so good!

I use the masque once a week (at night), and it leaves my hair SO SOFT. Even my boyfriend noticed the difference (he’s been brushing my hair lately, because I had neck surgery, and my shoulder is essentially useless). The protective shield gives my hair the perfect amount of protection from my straightener and the sun, in addition to strong, shiny hair, without feeling oily or greasy.

Look how gorgeously smooth and soft my hair is in this picture!

From the Joico website: “Protect all hair types from the ravaging effects of daily heat styling, UV exposure, and environmental pollution that lead to dry, dull, lackluster locks with Joico’s NEW Defy Damage haircare system. This damage-defying breakthrough helps protect and strengthen hair bonds for a healthy-hair transformation you can instantly see and feel.” Defy Damage products have SmartRelease technology. They continually release Rose Hip Oil, Arginine, and Keratin.

I’m really glad I’ve been introduced to Joico’s Defy Damage hair care line; I’ve easily become a regular customer! I bet you’ll feel the same way, too. 🙂

Food Intolerance Testing with York Test Labs Pt 2: Results

May 28, 2019 By lyndsinreallife Leave a Comment

A couple weeks ago, I shared about Part One of my food intolerance testing with York Test Labs. Quick summary: I was given the opportunity to take an at-home food and drink intolerance test. I sent two little cotton swabs of blood to be tested for over 200 common intolerances. Note: this blood test checks for intolerances (some are possible intolerances), not allergies.

Disclosure: Lipton Publicity provided a sample, and the opinion I express is 100% my own.

I’m back to share my results with you! Via email, I received these results:

The top red ones (in the first photo) with the black dots are what my blood reacted to. The only one I’m sad and surprised by is the cocoa bean! I’ll definitely have to get more info on the specifics of that. If I can’t have chocolate ever, what kind of life would that be?! 😉

I’m not surprised by the milk and eggs (including yolk). I’m bummed about beef, because I love a good cheeseburger. With the eggs, it’s funny: exactly 5 years ago, I started eating food that only felt good in my body, even though some of the foods I couldn’t eat were considered healthy. Here’s the post:

That post was specifically talking about eggs! Eggs have always made me feel bloated, despite never feeling full. It felt good reading these results and knowing it wasn’t all in my head.

The yellow food/drinks with the black dots are things my blood sort of reacted to. Those are possible intolerances, but not a “for sure.” Everything else, I didn’t have a reaction to! Pretty awesome.

Had I taken this test a year ago, I’d be so sad about the intolerances to wine. But, luckily, I no longer drink, so it’s not a big deal to me.

•••

After receiving the results, you’re given a phone number to call and schedule TWO 30-minute nutritional therapy sessions! You’ll talk with a professional to better understand your results and ask any questions. You’ll also receive a food diary and guidebook.

I feel extremely satisfied with the testing process with York Test Labs, and the results I received. I highly recommend checking out their website to learn more, & to purchase your own kit! There’s nothing more important than your health.

PS: There’s currently a SALE happening! Use code MAY20 to receive 20% off!

Food Intolerance Testing with York Test Labs, Pt 1

May 12, 2019 By lyndsinreallife 1 Comment

I never knew there was such a thing as food intolerances. I knew about food allergies (peanut, gluten, and such), but not intolerances. A few years ago, I started paying attention to how different foods affect me. I suspected I had some intolerances, but admittedly, didn’t do anything about it.

Luckily, York Test Labs offers a food intolerance blood test that checks for reactions to over 200 foods and drinks! The blood prick test is done at home, and mailed in to the company for testing.

Disclosure: Lipton Publicity provided a sample test, and the opinion I express is my own.

“The test identifies IgG antibody reactions that indicate which items may be causing inflammation and symptoms, defining each individual’s personal “food fingerprint.”

The test comes with two pricks, two tubes, an alcohol cleansing wipe, and a bandaid.

First, I filled out the form, and made sure my name was clearly written on the tubes.

Then I pricked my finger tip, and let the blood absorb into the cotton part of the tube.

Note: do not prick the finger you use most often, like I did. 😂

I put the form and tubes into the addressed and paid postage envelope, and sent it via USPS. Now, I wait for my results! I can’t wait!

York Test Labs has 35 years of experience in diagnostic testing and were awarded the Food Intolerance Testing Company of the Year.

Stay tuned for Part 2 of my food intolerance test, where I will share my results!

Wood Watches for The Modern Millennial + Giveaway

March 28, 2019 By lyndsinreallife 1 Comment

There are two things that are very important to me: being on time, and looking good while doing it!

Between my various jobs, my days are busy. Basically nonstop. I have specific times I need to be here and there and everywhere, plus deadlines to meet. I need a watch to get through my days. Sure, I have a cell phone that shows the time, but there is nothing quite like the look and feel of a watch on my wrist. The elegance and style, and the warm nostalgia I feel when reading an analog clock/watch; there’s nothing quite like it.

*Disclosure: I received a watch as part of a collaboration/partnership with JORD Watches. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions and words are my own.***

JORD Watches (pronounced Yode) carefully create beautiful wood watches for the modern person. There are also watches made with other earthly materials to accommodate all styles (like mine, which you’ll see below)! JORD watches have functionality and beauty, with a touch of sustainability.

Browsing through the user-friendly website, the watch that spoke to me was the Sier Arcadia; though honestly, it was REALLY hard to choose! Created with real, rough cut white marble (hand polished to a stunning luster) and rose gold, the Sier Arcadia is classic minimalism at its finest. I am all about clean lines and simple styles, and I knew this watch would pair perfectly with any outfit.

The watch arrived in the most beautiful packaging:

I’ve owned watches before, but nothing quite like this. You can see and feel the quality of the Sier Arcadia. It has weight, but not too much. The white leather band is thick enough to not break apart, but thin enough to not feel bulky. The rose gold metal mesh band is comfortable, sleek, and doesn’t fade like other mesh bands I’ve had. The bands are easily interchangeable, which I really like!

One thing I surprisingly enjoy is that the watch face doesn’t have any numbers or marks. Without the numbers, it’s especially sleek and minimalist. Clutter is stressful, and there’s no clutter in this watch! I also like being able to tell the time without the numbers. It reminds me of my childhood (you know, the 90s, before electronic technology ruled the world).

It’s really lovely and convenient to have such a unique watch that matches everything! I can go from work to dinner, or a light workout to brunch, and never have to worry if my accessories match my outfit. And with this watch, I’ll always be on time (which is an issue for me). 😉

It’s funny (& maybe weird?): when I wear my JORD watch, I feel fancier. I feel confident and pretty, and like I know a thing or two about accessorizing. My watch makes it SO EASY to make any outfit look great. I even stopped wearing my fitness tracker so I can wear this!

I’m so happy to have incorporated this beautiful watch into my lifestyle; thank you JORD for my gorgeous watch!

How Science and Technology Can “Formulate” Your Personalized Hair Care [Giveaway]

December 12, 2018 By lyndsinreallife Leave a Comment

My hair has always been a greasy, frizzy, flat and thin mess. Every single morning, I have to wash my hair, try to figure out the right products (I need oil but also dry shampoo but that doesn’t make sense ahhh), and hope that it holds up okay throughout the day. Spoiler Alert: it never does.?

Don’t even get me started on the ridiculously hot and dry weather we get in Vegas, along with those random days of 40+% humidity (humidity is my mortal enemy). I find myself looking at tons of shampoos and conditioners in the aisle at Kroger, trying to figure out the difference between this brand/color/ingredients/name/whatevenisthis. Yet, I never seem to find the right fit.

Well, it’s a great time to be alive, because a haircare company called Formulate creates CUSTOM shampoo and conditioner, literally JUST. FOR. YOUR. HAIR. They use science (gasp!) & technology (double gasp!) to figure out your specific hair type, based on your hair issues, your goals, your environment… basically everything that plays a role in your hair. A chemist (yep, like an official scientist in a lab and everything) creates the perfect formula for you. Your best ~~life~~ hair has never been So. Flippin. Easy.

Formulate Bottles, so chic!
white bottle: conditioner
black bottle: shampoo

*Disclosure: I received a set of shampoo and conditioner as part of a campaign with Formulate. No monetary compensation was received. All words & opinions are my own.

Here’s how the process of using Formulate was for me:

First, I took a personalized hair care quiz (found on their website). I answered questions about how my hair was dull, lackluster, thinning, had split ends, and so on. It asked if my scalp had any issues or sensitivity. I shared that I wanted to mend those issues to create shiny, healthy, thick hair without weighing it down. The quiz asked for my zip code, which I thought was strange, BUT, it’s so they can take into account what the weather will be like where you live for the next month. SO COOL! Environment plays a huge role in our hair, but lot of people don’t think about that. I was able to select the scent (I went with Shoreline), and the intensity of the scent (I chose Medium).

After finishing the quiz, I submitted my order for one 14oz bottle of custom shampoo and one 14oz bottle of custom conditioner. *Note: you can order a small sample bottle to give it a try before committing to the bigger bottles!

My pretty package with the hair products and a mini booklet of info about my hair (everything that was gathered from the quiz) arrived in less than a week. The mini booklet provides a list of ingredients (no sulfates, parabens, or any of that nasty junk) and instructions of how much to use (I appreciated this SO much).

I started using my personal shampoo and conditioner right away. I was so excited!

About 2 weeks into the use of my formula, I noticed that my hair was feeling like I had left product in it. You know, that gross, weird greasy feeling, like someone put Crisco in your hair? I remember reading that the first formula may not always be perfect, and it may need tweaking. I contacted Formulate; they indicated it was coating my hair a little bit and they’d update my formula right away. I received the new formula quickly, and it was PERFECT! Six weeks later and my hair is shiny, full, thick, and easy to manage, without the oiliness. I am not joking when I say that I get compliments all the time. It’s a nice little confidence boost! ☺️

Before Formulate // After 6 weeks of using Formulate

I’m seriously so obsessed with my personalized shampoo and personalized conditioner, and of course my “new” hair. I’m no longer stressed when styling it, and it takes half the time it used to. I’m so happy Formulate exists; it’s my new haircare FOR LIFE! #FormulateForMe

GIVEAWAY! YAY!

Formulate has graciously offered to give away ONE FULL SET of personalized shampoo and conditioner ($49 value) to one of my lucky readers/followers!

It’s super simple to enter. Visit this link: www.formulate.co/u/lyndsinreallife

Enter your email address & click submit. That’s it!

*US only, 18 & over. Giveaway ends Sunday, Dec. 16, 2018. The winner will be notified by Formulate through email.

Le-Vel Thrive Pro Review: How This Protein Bar Changed My Snacking Habits

October 6, 2018 By lyndsinreallife 1 Comment

Le-Vel Thrive PRO Bar Review

It’s incredibly easy for me to grab whatever snack is around when I’m on-the-go. That usually means something filled with sugar, simple carbs, and junk. Nothing nutritious. When I eat crummy, I feel crummy. I need to have energy throughout the day, especially when it comes to making sure the girl I nanny gets to her activities and gets her schoolwork done. I realized I needed a snack that would give me protein and complex carbs. That’s where Le-Vel THRIVE PRO premium lifestyle nutrition/protein bars come in.

This post is sponsored by Le-Vel. All opinions and verbiage are my own.

Here’s my Le-Vel Thrive PRO Bar Review

Here’s the thing: I have a really hard time making sure I get enough protein. I’ve always been a (simple) carbs kind of gal. I’ve found it’s crucial to carry a protein bar in my purse or gym bag. Lately, I’ve been loving my THRIVE PRO bars. They contain 20 grams of a proprietary sequential protein, with only 2-3 grams of sugar, and the carbohydrate to protein ratio is perfect for a healthy snack!

THRIVE PRO bars also double as a pre and post-workout snack, providing just the right amount of fuel and recovery. I was struggling to provide my body with the nutrition it needed for my runs, and you wouldn’t believe how much better I felt (and feel)!

Le-Vel THRIVE PRO protein bars are especially popular in my house because they’re gluten free.

THRIVE PRO bars come in 4 flavors: birthday cake (my favorite), lemon meringue, cinnamon roll, and cookies & cream. Le-Vel makes many other products including their 3 Step Thrive Experience. If you’re interested, check out this review on the Thrive Experience.

I definitely feel like a healthier, happier athlete + person with THRIVE PRO protein bars. Thanks Le-Vel!

Getting My Confidence Back with Smile Brilliant Teeth Whitening + Giveaway

July 17, 2018 By lyndsinreallife 18 Comments

2018 is MY year (even if it’s halfway over). The year I really take control of how I look and feel. I’m tired of seeing pictures of myself and thinking, “ugh, who is that person?” I want to meet up with old friends and hear them say, “wow, you look great!” I want to feel confident when I’m out and about, whether it’s on The Strip, at the pool, or at my apartment complex. I just turned 30 and I want to look and feel my best!

So, I decided it was time to take charge and make a change. I want to feel confident and proud this summer.

I took up running, made healthy changes in my diet, purchased better skincare products, and I chose to #SmileFearlessly with the Smile Brilliant teeth whitening kit!

Disclosure: I received a free Smile Brilliant whitening kit in exchange for a review on my blog. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are my own.

I drink a lot of coffee (hello #NannyLife), and tend to eat acidic foods. My teeth seemed to become yellow so fast, and I guess I never really thought about what was causing it (colors from food are absorbed through microscopic pores). I realized I needed a way to make my pearly whites (erm, yellows?) sparkle, especially for those Insta-worthy photos. 😉

Smile Brilliant provides at-home whitening kits, complete with molds (to create custom whitening trays), whitening gel, de-sensitizing gel (depending on your kit), and a holder for your trays. It also includes a prepaid postage envelope to send the custom molds to the lab to create the clear custom fitted whitening trays.

With SB, you get the same results as you would at the dentist office, but for much less money!

There are 6 kits to choose from; ranging from heavy stains to light stains, and nonsensitive vs sensitive teeth. I have sensitive teeth, especially when it comes to whitening them. I tried whitening strips and trays from the drugstore in the past, and they always made my teeth hurt. Plus, they never fit my teeth well. The strips were always too small, and the trays didn’t feel comfortable. They were basically useless!

I’m happy to note that my teeth experienced very little sensitivity when using Smile Brilliant. The desensitizing gel is a life-saver!

CUSTOM WHITENING TRAYS

Luckily with Smile Brilliant, you’re able to make your own custom trays. The kit comes with 2 pastes: base and catalyst. There are enough to make 3 molds (mix the pastes together), which will become blue. These molds will be used to make impressions of your teeth to create your trays. A mixture of paste will go into 2 blue trays, which you will use to insert in your mouth to get your teeth impressions (for both your bottom and top teeth). There is a third paste mixture that can be used if one of the molds needs redone.

After creating your molds, you mail them back in the prepaid envelope. Your clear, custom trays will be sent back to you about a week later!

TEETH WHITENING

Before whitening, it’s important to floss, and then brush your teeth with only water. Continue as follows:

Dry teeth as much as possible.
Apply thin layer of whitening gel to the top and bottom trays. Make sure it’s directly in the middle along the front side.
Apply trays to teeth, trying not to smear the gel (it will cover the teeth on its own once pressed in).
Leave trays in anywhere from 45 minutes to 3 hours, depending on sensitivity. Start out at the 45 minute mark, and gradually work your way up.
Once the time is up, remove the trays and wash with water, then dry.
Brush your teeth as normal (with toothpaste).
If you have the kit with the desensitizing gel, apply the gel to the trays just like with the whitening gel.
Put on trays for 15-20 minutes.
Remove trays, spit out the excess gel (but don’t get your teeth wet), wash off the trays with water, then dry. Put the trays in the container provided in the kit.
Don’t eat or drink anything for at least 30 minutes.

It’s recommended to whiten at night, right before bed. This way, you give your teeth more time to absorb the gels, giving you the best results!

I’m really excited to share my results; just look at this before and after photo!

“From dental lab to your door. Our teeth whitening process is recommended by more dentists than any other procedure in America. We proudly produce our custom-fitted whitening trays right here in the United States for 70% less than your dentist and 3x to 5x faster. We ship worldwide & our customers trust our team’s honesty and experience.” (smilebrilliant.com)

A Scientific Approach to Personal Health with The Home DNA Healthy Weight™ Test

February 26, 2018 By lyndsinreallife 2 Comments

I’m approaching 30, and my body is definitely feeling it. When I was a teenager, my mom would always tell me, “lose weight now, because it gets harder the older you get.” Ugh, I hate it when she’s right. 😉 Losing weight, getting fit, and finding the right foods to eat has been difficult, ever since I turned 25. My metabolism slowed down , and I felt that my genes were also a contributing factor.

Disclosure: I received a free Home DNA Healthy Weight™ kit + free lab fee in the hopes I’d mention it on my blog. In partnership with Lipton Publicity. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are my own.

To find out if my genes were causing any issues, I decided to take a healthy weight at-home genetic DNA test called The Home DNA Healthy Weight™ (created by The DNA Diagnostics Center (DDC) Company). This test identifies nutrition and exercise strategies uniquely tailored to each individual based on their genetic makeup.

You learn about:

Your capacity to lose weight.
Your protein, fat, and carbohydrate utilization
The food and nutrients your body needs.
Cardio exercise and strength training for your body.
You even get a personalized meal plan based on your results.

The Home DNA Healthy Weight™ kit is extremely easy to use. They provide you with 4 swabs (essentially large Q-Tips), and all you do is swab the inside of your cheek (with all 4), and send them back in the mail! It took me about 2 minutes to complete this. There is a lab fee when you check out (all of this can be done online). You’ll receive your results (also online) about 6 weeks later!

Luckily, Home DNA is offering my readers a $50 discount on their own kit, which brings the price of the kit down to only $69!! That’s an AMAZING price, especially for all the information you get. Get your discount here: Home DNA discount.

The Healthy Weight fitness DNA test can help save a lot of time and money as you eliminate diets, supplements and workouts that are not optimal for you as an individual, weight management is not ‘one size fits all’ after all.

My results were really cool! I learned the my ability to lose weight is “below average” and my genes are “unfavorable,” so that wasn’t so cool. 😉 Honestly though, that made me feel better, knowing my lack of weight loss wasn’t entirely my fault. It taught me about how my body absorbs particular nutrients, what foods are best for me to eat (I’m allowed to eat carbs, woohoo!), and how I need to exercise to lose weight. It provided me with a meal plan, as well! I tried it out for the first week, and felt great. I’m the type of person who needs things laid out like this. It’s so much easier!

As you can see, much of my genes are unfavorable and below average, yay me!…

Here’s an example of a portion of the meal plan tailored specifically to me:

I highly recommend getting this genetic test done and finding out how to eat and exercise based on your specific body and genes! Get your own kit for $50 off using code HW50 or going directly to this link.
