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

By 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. 🙂

Why Trees & Plants From Commercial Silk Are The Way to Go

By 10 Comments

This post is sponsored by Commercial Silk Plants.

I’m terrible at keeping plants alive. Like, the worst. The only thing I’ve kept alive is my cactus from 2015, and even then, it doesn’t look great! I heard about Commercial Silk Plants and decided silk plants are perfect for me!

I decided to order a bamboo tree. I’m really into trees and plants from other areas, because desert plants in Las Vegas can be so boring (except the saguaro cacti!). I wanted something that would stand out a bit. This tree stands about 4 feet tall and fits perfectly on my balcony.

The tree feels so real! It’s unbelievable. I’ve seen artificial plants before, and it’s so obvious that they’re artificial. But this tree, this SILK tree, looks and feels real. It’s amazing! Just look at these leaves and the bamboo stalks:

I’m not getting a Christmas tree this year, so I’ve decided to decorate the bamboo tree and have a festive, fun Christmas! Why not create my own traditions, right?

About Commercial Silk Plants

Commercial Silk Plants is the leader in the manufacturing of indoor/outdoor boxwood and hedge panel related products exclusively for commercial projects and the wholesale trade.

Our goal has always been to produce the world’s finest, most authentic artificial trees and silk plants for commercial projects. Our broad experience in the interior landscaping business has enabled us to build and install the most natural looking artificial plantscapes in the industry (website).

I’m Getting Wedding Ready With This In-Home Pedicure Tool

By Leave a Comment

I’m maid of honor in my best friend’s wedding this Friday, which is super exciting! I’ve been getting “wedding ready” … you know, figuring out hairstyles, deciding which makeup to use, spray tan, and of course, a pedicure! Pedicures are awesome. My favorite part is when they shave the dead skin/callouses from the bottom of your feet. It sounds gross (and kind of is), but if you’ve ever had a pedicure, you understand how great it is. This is where Emjoi’s Micro-Pedi comes in handy.

Disclosure: I received an Emjoi Micro-Pedi for product testing from Lipton Publicity. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are 100% my own.

Pedicures can be pricey. They generally last one month. If you have $40+ to drop that often, then that’s great! But if you’re like me, you don’t. So I choose to do my own pedicures. 🙂

First, I use a foot bath. I like the Conair Foot Spa with Vibration and Heat (affiliate link/photo shown below).

 

Then I use Earth Therapeutics Tea Tree Oil Footsoak (affiliate link/photo shown below).

 

I soak the skin on my feet with the foot bath, exfoliate with the tree tea oil scrub, dry off my feet, paint my nails, and then use the Micro-Pedi.

emjoi-micropedi-callous-remover

It’s incredibly easy to use, and my feet feel like a baby’s bottom when I’m done. It doesn’t hurt (though sometimes tickles); just make sure not to keep it in the same place for more than 3-5 seconds. You simply move it back and forth over the desired areas, and voila! It feels just like it would at a nail salon.

Also, it’s much safer than the metal scrapers they use at the salon. So that’s a big plus!

According to the American Podiatric Medical Association website, “Your feet must last a lifetime and most Americans log an amazing 75,000 miles on their feet by the time they reach age 50.”

Great looking, smooth feet are youthful, more alluring, comfortable and imperative for health, sports participation and grooming.

Here’s my left foot before using the Micro-Pedi, and after ONE USE!

micropedi-before-and-after

Pretty amazing, am I right?

The Emjoi Micro-Pedi costs $39.95 on the Emjoi website (with free same-day shipping), or you can get it for $14.95 (with Prime shipping) on Amazon (affiliate link).

How I #FeelAmazingEveryday with Amazing Grass Protein Superfood + GIVEAWAY

By 26 Comments

Disclosure: As part of my #sweatpink ambassadorship with Fit Approach, participating in the Amazing Grass campaign, I received a full-size Amazing Grass protein superfood canister and monetary compensation. All opinions are my own.

 I try to be active and #FeelAmazingEveryday, even in the Las Vegas heat. I really enjoy yoga and Pilates, and running in the evening (after the sun goes down). Now that I have a pool at my apartment complex, I’ve taken on swimming. I love it!

I like to wake up every day and throw on my prAna bathing suit. Then I make my Amazing Grass smoothie. I need to make sure I get all the fuel and energy I can before swimming; it takes a lot out of me, and if I don’t fuel myself properly (or hydrate!), it’s easy to get dizzy, pass out, or even suffer from heat exhaustion.

amazing grass blog #sweatpink summer Amazing Grass Blog #sweatpink

I’ve tried numerous protein powders in the past, but none like Amazing Grass. What makes it so different? Here’s a few reasons:

  • AG is a protein superfood: 20g of plant-based protein with greens, fruits, and veggies (with only 110 calories per serving).
  • Superfoods are nutrient-rich foods high in antioxidants, polyphenols, vitamins, and minerals, and are considered to be especially beneficial for health and well-being (health.com).
  • AG is USDA organic.
  • AG is non-GMO.
  • AG is gluten-free.
  • AG contains no added sugar.
  • AG contains 7 alkalizing greens (wheat grass, barley grass, alfalfa, spirulina, chlorella, broccoli, &spinach).
  • AG contains pea, chia, quinoa, & hemp protein, making it plant-based and vegan.
  • AG contains fruit & veggies such as beet, carrot, sweet potato, goji, acai, banana, & more.
  • AG is made in the United States, with select ingredients carefully curated from around the world.

amazing grass protein superfood   amazing grass protein superfood benefits

Amazing Grass makes it super easy to get all the nutrients I need to fuel my body throughout the day. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, right? So why not have a breakfast full of protein, fruits, veggies, fiber, vitamins, and minerals?

I like Amazing Grass, but it’s important to note that since it contains superfoods, it has a bit of a plant taste. The powder I received is vanilla flavored, and you can definitely taste the vanilla, but the superfood taste stands out. It’s a different taste than powders with soy or whey protein, but Amazing Grass powder has so many superfoods (and is vegan), so it’s to be expected! The benefits definitely outweigh the plant taste.

Renard Compression Socks Review

By 2 Comments

*Disclosure: I received a pair of Renard Compression socks at a discounted price in the hopes I would review them. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are 100% my own. This post contains affiliate links.
I’m a big fan of these Renard Compression socks! I’ve tried compression calf sleeves before, but it felt unnatural (I think I’m just used to wearing socks). It’s easier to run/workout when I’m wearing compression socks. I get calf pain often, and compression is really the only thing (besides constant stretching) that helps! These socks have the perfect amount of compression: not too loose and not too tight.

Renard Compression Socks Review 3

I like that the socks are black and grey; they’re perfect for men AND women. Also, I tend to wear a lot of black, so they match perfectly.

I bought a size M. I wear a size 7.5 and they fit great on my feet. The compression also feels just right. Note: don’t leave compression socks on while you sleep, and make sure there are no rolls in the socks while wearing them (trust me, it hurts really bad afterward if there are rolls/creases).

Renard Compression Socks Review

Compression socks can be used for exercising, being on your feet for long hours (nurses, etc), and flying. I highly recommend Renard Compression socks!

You can get a pair of these socks for $13.99 on Amazon.

How I’m Getting Summertime Ready with Beets BLU Smart Scale

By 4 Comments

Summer is quickly approaching. As many of you know, summer season = wedding season. Wedding season = lots of dresses = time to really track my weight/body fat/water etc. There are already three weddings I’m attending: one is my ‘baby’ brother’s, another is for a good friend, and I’m the maid of honor in the last one. It’s incredibly exciting!

I’ve been in the market for a new scale, so when Beets BLU (a brand I’ve worked with in the past) offered me the opportunity to try their Bluetooth Smart Scale, I was in!

*Disclosure: I received a Beets BLU Smart Scale in the hopes I’d review it on my blog. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are 100% my own. This post contains affiliate links.

This is the best scale I’ve ever used! It’s accurate and easy to read. The blue LCD display is nice because it’s not blinding. The scale is sleek and modern, and it’s not bulky (like other scales). You step on it and align your feet with the grey bars. The scale displays only your weight, but turn your Bluetooth on and all your data will be sent to your phone!

Beets Blu Smart Scale

When you get the scale, you’ll be able to download the Smart Scale app on your iPhone or Android phone/device. As long as your Bluetooth is on, all your info (body fat %, BMI, muscle percentage, and water percentage) will show up on your device. This info is saved to your device. At the bottom of the app, it’ll have your 7 day stats plus your 30 day stats. This is what it looks like on an Android phone:

Beets Blu Smart Scale Screen Shot

If your Bluetooth isn’t on at the time, don’t worry- once you turn it on, the data will sync. All compatible devices are listed below:

  • Supports HealthKit App
  • Works with Apple iPhone (4S, 5, 5S, 5C, 6, 6 plus)
  • iPad (mini, 3, 4, Air)
  • Samsung Galaxy (S4, S5, S6, S6 Edge)

I’ve used so many scales in the past (analog, digital, bulky, weight loss-oriented), and the Beets BLU Smart Scale is hands down the best scale I’ve ever used. My boyfriend is a health coach and trainer and really loves it, as well! This is the perfect scale to help me get summer/wedding season ready (and have overall good health). I love that it tracks my data, because I’m a very visual person. I’m able to look back at my data and keep track of my progress. It’s very motivating! I highly recommend this scale to anyone and everyone.

Note: The photos are of my boyfriend’s toes, not mine. 😉

The Beets BLU Bluetooth Smart Scale is available on Amazon for $79.95 USD.

Also, you can purchase the scale plus heart rate monitor as a bundle, and save 20%!

Always Know Your Heart Rate with Beets Blu HRM

By 2 Comments

I like to be active, whether it’s yoga, walking, doing 5ks, stand up paddle boarding, whatever. There’s nothing quite like that endorphin rush. Am I right?! 😉

*Disclosure: I received a free heart rate monitor and wireless key finder in exchange for an honest review on my blog. No monetary compensation was received. All opinions are 100% my own. This post contains some affiliate links.

However, I’ve never had a way to measure my heart rate, and it’s something that I think is important to monitor.

With that being said, the Beets Blu Bluetooth heart rate monitor is AWESOME! The readings are accurate and work up to 35 feet from your phone. I always carry my phone on a run, but have no way to monitor my heart rate (which is essential for someone with tachycardia, like myself), until now of course! The strap is thin and comfortable, unlike other HR monitors I’ve used. Obviously it’s not comfortable to have a thick, heavy strap when sweating!

Heart Rate Monitor Beets Blu Review

There’s a QR code on the box; scan that and you can download the Beets Blu app. The app is where all your information is stored. You can also use it with apps such as MapMyFitness, Strava, RunKeeper, Runtastic, and many more!

You can find the Beets Blu heart rate monitor on Amazon.com (affiliate link) for $44.95.

I also had the opportunity to try the PaperTag wireless key finder.

Beets Blu PaperTag key finder wireless

I’m the type of person who tends to lose my keys in a pile of papers or clothes. Having this key finder is SO helpful, especially because it connects to my iPhone 6 via Bluetooth (Android too)! There’s a QR code on the box, which gives a lot of info on the product/Beets Blu when scanned. I tested it out on my dog for fun; it works really well (up to 33 feet). The device is small and portable. Great for traveling!

You can get one on Amazon.com (affiliate link) for $24.95.

Follow Beets Blu on social media: Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and Pinterest. Visit their website at beetsblu.com.

Improve Your Health with Dr. Mercola’s Complete Probiotics + Giveaway

By Leave a Comment

Disclosure: I received a bottle of probiotics, joint support, and silver from Mercola.com to provide an honest review and giveaway on my blog. All opinions are my own. This post contains affiliate links.

Last year, I had an overgrowth of candida which resulted in some pretty uncomfortable symptoms. I began focusing on alternative medicine and holistic health care. My family has been using holistic methods and seeing an alternative medicine doctor for 12 years now. I’ve always been really interested it, and even considered attending graduate school for holistic health. However, my health began to deteriorate as I cycled through my worst episodes of bipolar disorder. The result? My gut (where 90% of our immune system is) was full of too much bacteria, causing a downhill spiral of physical and mental issues.

symptoms-of-candida-overgrowth

It was only then that I learned about probiotics. To put it simply, probiotics (affilate) are good bacteria that we need in our GI tract. Probiotics are something we should be consuming often, if not every day (note: I am not a health professional. These are only my opinions.). They’re especially important when you have a candida overgrowth.

There are tons of companies that make probiotics, but not all of them are quality products. Luckily, there’s Dr. Mercola’s Complete Probiotics. Dr. Joseph Mercola is an osteopathic physician (also known as a DO). DOs are similar to MDs, however, DOs “practice a “whole person” approach, treating the entire person rather than just symptoms. Focusing on preventive health care, DOs help patients develop attitudes and lifestyles that don’t just fight illness, but help prevent it, too” (as found on his website). This type of whole body approach is why I trust in his products. Plus, a portion of the proceeds from his product sales are donated to various nonprofits!

Probiotics Dr Mercola Review Blog

Dr. Mercola’s Complete Probiotics:

  • contain effective, strain specific bacteria
  • are viable and dose specific
  • remain stable and viable for a long period of time
  • have the ability to survive the stomach and into the intestine
  • thrive in the intestine

Within about a week of taking these, I felt great! Want to try them out for yourself? Mercola.com and I are giving away one bottle of Complete Probiotics to one lucky reader! Enter via the Rafflecopter widget below:

Terms & Conditions:
Giveaway ends October 16, 2015 at 12:00 AM (midnight) PST. Open to Residents of the US & Canada only. Entrants must be 18 & over. Prizes cannot be shipped to P.O.

Decadent Chocolate Deliciousness With Cocozia® Coconut Water

By Leave a Comment

Coconut water is my all-time favorite drink. Like, EVER. It’s a topic of discussion all throughout my blog. I drink it daily, especially  in the summertime. But sometimes I get bored with the taste, and most nights, just like any other female, I want chocolate. What’s a girl to do?

Good thing Cocozia® coconut water has a brand-new chocolate flavor! Seriously, it’s amazing. You may be saying, “But [insert another brand here] already has a chocolate flavor; what makes this any better?”

Disclosure: I received a case (12 pack) of Cocozia chocolate coconut water in exchange for an honest review on my blog. I make a small profit of any purchases through my affiliate links. As always, all opinions are 100% my own.

Cocozia Chocolate Coconut Water Review   Cocozia Chocolate Coconut Water Organic

I’m glad you asked (or at least I’m pretending you asked 😉 ). The other brand comes in a plastic bottle, which I despise. I should call myself an anti-plastic warrior. Ha! It’s terrible for the environment and anything that comes from a plastic bottle tastes weird. Plus this other brand is from concentrate, which I’m not really a fan of. Cocozia (affiliate link), however, comes in a biodegradable Tetra Pak, and it’s not from concentrate. Plus Cocozia is 100% organic and non-GMO Project verified. The chocolate flavor comes from light, all-natural chocolate.

I like to drink Cocozia for a few different reasons throughout my day:

  • To hydrate
  • To raise my blood sugar when it gets too low (hypoglycemia)
  • As a snack
  • As a replacement for not-so-healthy chocolate
  • As a nighttime snack (I probably used it mostly for this one!)

When I was craving something extra chocolaty, I would make this recipe:

Cocozia Chocolate Recipe Coconut Water

For this recipe, I used PBZero powdered peanut butter and Navitas Naturals raw cocoa nibs (affiliate link). Of course, you can use whichever brands you prefer!

If you want decadent chocolate deliciousness in your fridge, you can order a case of Cocozia on Amazon (affiliate link)! A 12 pack case of 16.9 oz is $35. You can also find Cocozia on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

  • What is your favorite flavor of coconut water?
  • Are you a chocolate fanatic like me?
  • What was the highlight of your weekend? (I’m just curious!) :p

ELLEDA: A Quality Facial Serum That Won’t Break The Bank

By Leave a Comment

I’m getting old. Okay, maybe not old, but as of last month, I’m officially in my late 20s. Add in the terrible air quality and pollution in Los Angeles, and I’ve got myself some pretty bad skin.

It often feels like I can’t catch a break. With combination skin, my face gets super oily, causing acne, which in turn causes my skin to become dry. Plus the weather is ridiculously dry here (we’re in one of the worst droughts California has ever faced).  I swear I’ve tried everything. Various store-bought anti-aging creams, oily lotions, oil-free lotions, etc. I started making my own facial moisturizer with coconut oil and essential oils in the hopes that it would be better for my skin. It has been, which is awesome, but my skin was still missing something. I needed a hyaluronic acid serum, and one that was less expensive than what most brands are asking.

Elleda Hyaluronic Acid Serum Skin Beauty Cover

While looking through a new-to-me blog and brand website, I stumbled upon a serum that was right up my alley. It was Elleda Vitamin C 20% Serum and the ingredients are almost all-natural (98%). I thought I’d give it a try for 30 days and see if facial serum was worth the hype. *I was offered a full-size bottle of Elleda serum in exchange for sharing my honest opinion. No monetary compensation was received. As always, all opinions are 100% my own. Reference ID pmc7558e9d1f956b016d1fdba7ea132378

 

First, let me share a bit of info about this amazing serum!

  • It’s known as Mother Nature’s skincare secret in a bottle
  • It offers clinical strength Vitamin C at 20% – the perfect percentage and maximum effective concentration designed to stimulate collagen production, resulting in firmer skin, reduced wrinkles and the diminished appearance of sun spots and acne scars.
  • It contains a powerful blend of natural ingredients in perfect proportion.
  • The ingredients are 72% organic and 98% natural ingredients specifically designed to leave skin feeling and looking healthy and vibrant.
  • In addition to 20% Vitamin C, this unique anti-aging serum contains an antioxidant-rich mix of vitamins and botanicals that combine to make you look and feel beautiful!

Ingredients:

—-> Vitamin C – Stimulates collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
—-> Vitamin E – Nourishes your skin, leaving it feeling soft and silky.
—-> Hyaluronic Acid (11%) – Hydrates skin cells to freshen your complexion.
—-> Aloe Barbadensis Leaf – Protects and revives your skin with natural healing properties.
—-> Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) – Helps aid a variety of skin conditions, including acne and eczema.
—-> Jojoba Oil – Mimics your body’s natural oils and absorbs deeply and quickly to moisturize all skin types.

Elleda Skin Beauty Hyaluronic Acid Review 4

As you can see, there are endless amounts of benefits to using this serum!

What I Love About Elleda Serum:

  1. It’s inexpensive! There are a few serums on Amazon for $20+, but many of the serums I’ve seen are well over $50. This Elleda serum is only $14.50 on Amazon (affiliate link)!
  2. It’s high quality. It works extremely well!
  3. Most the ingredients are natural and organic. I try my best not to put chemicals in my body or on my skin.
  4. It comes in a glass bottle. I refuse to use plastic for anything. Glass is much cleaner and safer!
  5. It dries quickly. I don’t have to wait forever to put my coconut oil moisturizer on.
  6. It lasts a long time! I used this serum twice a day and it lasted almost a full 60 days. The bottle is 1 oz.

What I Don’t Necessarily Love About Elleda Serum:

  1. It’s a dropper. It wasn’t impossible to use, but I’d prefer a pump. I felt like I wasted a lot of serum because it fell off my finger or I squeezed too much out.
