Clarigenics Hyaluronic Acid Serum Review



As a member of the Tomoson blogger community, I received a bottle of Clarigenics Hyaluronic Acid Serum in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are 100% my own. Post may contain affiliate links.

I recently received a bottle of Clarigenics Hyaluronic Acid serum for the purposes of this review. As you can see, I've reviewed several different brands of hyaluronic acid serum lately. Here is a little information from their Amazon page:

  • ARE YOU DOING ENOUGH TO STOP DEEP WRINKLES FROM FORMING? The key to locking in youth is to lock in moisture! Hyaluronic acid is nature's lubricant molecule, and binds 1,000 times its own weight in water deep into the spaces between skin cells. Our customers say they notice IMMEDIATE RESULTS and report smoother, softer, and more radiant skin after just one application of Clarigenics Hyaluronic Serum.
  • 98% NATURAL AND 72% ORGANIC - A hypoallergenic blend of rejuvenating ingredients helps to reduce the look of fine lines and deep wrinkles while infusing the skin with pure Hyaluronic Acid (locks in moisture), Vitamin C (reverses sun damage), Jojoba Oil (anti-bacterial moisturizer), Witch Hazel (blemish fighter), Vitamin E (repairs cellular damage), Green Tea (neutralizes free radicals), and Aloe (heals and soothes stressed skin).
  • DID YOU KNOW MOST SIGNS OF AGING ARE REVERSIBLE? You can roll back the clock and look ten years younger with this powerful combination of hyaluronic acid and vitamin C + E. Need an oily skin moisturizer? Our anti aging serum is great for oily skin as it is one of the very few 100% oil free moisturizer organic skin care products available. And if you're looking for a dry skin moisturizer, our proprietary hyaluronic acid + vitamin c anti-aging serum is fully guaranteed to be the most effective facial moisturizer and wrinkle filler you have ever tried, or your money back.
  • BEAUTY WITHOUT COMPROMISE - Revel in that special sense of care and confidence that comes from knowing your skin is beautiful because it's healthy! Our stunning results come from the potency of natural botanical active ingredients, which are welcomed by your body. That's why we are paraben free, and use no dioxanes, phthalates, SLS, alcohol, or other toxic ingredients, and make our products in the USA in our FDA and GMP certified facility. And we love animals, so of course we're cruelty free!
  • TRY IT NOW, WORRY FREE, FULL 365 DAY GUARANTEE - Order now with complete confidence. If any time within a year of purchase you are not completely satisfied with any of our skincare solutions, we'll fully refund your purchase, no questions asked. Simple and honest.

This hyaluronic acid serum is pretty much the same as the rest. I do like that they offer a 365 day money back guarantee- so if you're not satisfied with results at any time, you can get a full refund, no questions asked. I also like that this one is 98 percent natural and 72 percent organic- so it's good for you!

Almost Perfect Book Review


As a member of the Tomoson blogger community, I received a copy of this e-book in exchange for my honest opinion. All opinions are my own.

Book Description 

What would you do if your best friend and colleague was suspected of murder?

The world of Nili Abadi, partner in a successful law firm, is turned upside down when the body of another partner is found in a burned-out car that belongs to her best friend. The fact that her friend is also a colleague and an ex-lover of the deceased, leads the police to arrest her as the main suspect in the murder.


Nili, convinced that her friend is innocent, sets out to help expose the truth. Although the promotion of the police officer in charge of the investigation is on the line and he needs her help to solve the case, he isn't very enthusiastic about her involvement. However, when she exposes dark secrets from the dead man's past that shed new light and complicate the investigation, he is forced to cooperate with her, primarily because he is afraid that her involvement in the case has put her life is in danger.


The twists and turns of the investigation also reveal a mysterious embezzlement case and anepic love story that weaves through three wars. The truth, when it finally comes to light, reveals that every piece of information and visible evidence hides a harsh and more complex reality.


˃˃˃ Real World Stories


The writer sets her stories in the real world, where the smells, tastes and feelings are known and accessible to the reader. These make the book enjoyable, thrilling, and allow the reader to connect with the characters.


˃˃˃ Mystery, Romance, Politics and Intrigue


If you fancy a mystery which combines romance, politics and intrigue, you have found it in this book.


This book is definitely an edge-of-your-seat, keep-your-attention book. If you're looking for something to add to your reading list for the beach this summer, you've found the right one! If you're interested in purchasing this book, please click the link below: 




3-in-1 Cree LED Flashlight Review



As a member of the Tomoson blogger community, I received the following 3-in-1 Cree LED Flashlight for the purposes of this review. All opinions are 100% my own. 


From the website: 

AYL LED CREE XP-E Car Flashlight; When Safety, Versatility and Security Matter!
Does the idea of carrying a bulky flashlight turn you off?
Or are you concerned about the cost of replacing flashlight batteries on a regular basis?

The truth is that, working with flashlights that produce unsatisfactory light can be frustrating to many people. Others find the usual flashlights quiet rigid hence can't be used in varied situations.
That is not the situation with the revolutionary CREE XP-E LED Car Flashlight!

The CREE XP-E LED Flashlight stands out as a 3-in-1 convenient lighting source; with a design that allows versatility for use in different scenarios.

Why choose the AYL LED Car Flashlight?

- It features a rugged and high quality military-grade design for durability and versatility. It can be used in a variety of applications which include cars, bikes, home, etc.
- The flashlight comes with an anodized aluminium body which is resistant to various elements of weather
- It is powered by 3 AAA batteries (not included)
- It is quite versatile and comes with a total of 29 LEDS (18 white LEDs and 11 red LED)
- It comes in a user-friendly design. It features a magnetic base that can be stuck on any metallic surface
- It comes with 3 light options; Cree, White, and flashing Red LED for improved visibility
- The bulbs can last for more than 100,000 hours
- Easy operation: 1st click turns the CREE LED, 2nd click lights-up the 18 white LED, while 3rd click turns on RED LED

My husband kinda took this one from me- since, he is a truck driver, he really has more of a use for it than I do. It did come in handy when we were moving from one storage facility to another and the new one did not have lighting. This flashlight/lantern lit up almost the entire 10x10 unit! I really was surprised at how well it worked.

The Chase E-book Review


As part of the Tomoson blogger community, I received a copy of the e-book, The Chase in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are 100% my own. 

As I blogger, from time to time, I am able to review books. This is one of them. Honestly, this is probably not one of those that I would read again, but it was definitely worth reading once. I love the descriptive language that pulled me in and made me see what was going on. I love that I don't have to know anything about Russian submarines or the Greek Islands in order to read the book.

Book Description:
For the lone skipper of the Galatea sailing yacht in the Aegean Sea off the coast of Turkey, a peaceful vacation turns into a race for his life.

"A dull thud vibrated low as the Russian submarine Slavianka lost its electronic spying antenna atop the tower."

"The Galatea had come to a sudden stop. Avri was hurled forward like a harpoon from a cannon. His head hit the bulkhead with a horrible ****, absorbing all his one hundred and sixty pounds of momentum. He heard the loud crunching noise of the bow crashing into something solid, or perhaps it was the sound of his skull smashing against the bulkhead."

“Comrades! We face a serious situation. I trust every one of you to do his very best so we can solve this problem in a manner befitting a unit of the great Soviet Navy."

"The young Greek let out a short yelp of surprise as he saw the tower of the submarine in the middle of the cove. The fisherman turned his head toward the Slavianka, but, before he realized what it was, he saw the muzzle flashes. The sound of the shots reached his ears as he watched the bullets rip his son’s body to pieces. There wasn’t much left of the young body by the time it hit the water. “You don’t shoot people for fishing,” he shouted speechlessly as a barrage of bullets tore through him."

"Avri Keren rose slowly from the cold cockpit floor. He felt as if there was a blanket over his head, when in fact just pitch-black skies and stars were twinkling coldly down at him. He felt something wet and heavy covering him, but it was only the chilly night air. His limbs moved sluggishly, each seeming to weigh a ton. Lurching slowly, like a monster from the golden era of cinema, he shuffled towards Galatea's dark cabin where he heaved himself to the dining couch. The pounding in his head was heavy, resonating throughout his body."

In this sailing paradise of the Mediterranean, neither the skipper nor the captain will give up in this race for life or death.

If you wish to purchase this book, please click the link below, my family and I greatly appreciate the support!

Petunia Skincare: Derma Roller & More

As a member of the Tomoson blogger community, I received a 1.0 mm Derma Roller, Revitalize Eye Serum, and Professional Hyaluronic Acid Serum. All opinions are 100% my own. 


Petunia Skincare offers a 1.0 mm Derma Roller, Eye Serum, & Hyaluronic Acid Serum. You have already seen my other reviews on the Hyaluronic Acid Serums as well as my review on another Eye Serum. However, one thing you have not yet seen is my review on a derma roller.

Soulmates: How to Find and Keep True Love Review



As part of the Tomoson blogger community, I received a PDF copy of the e-book, Soul Mates: How to Find and Keep True Love. All opinions are 100% my own. This post does contain affiliate links. 

Soul Mates: How to Find and Keep True Love explains that love is much more than the physical- it also encompasses the spiritual realm. Now, I've already found my true love (we'll be celebrating two years of marriage this summer)- so I do not need to put any of the information contained in this book into effect into my own life, but much of the information presented really does make sense.

Book Description

Love is not governed by the rational

It is not understood by scientific methods which do not detect, prove, nor do they define love. The same as God cannot be defined. Love is the part of the spirit and soul, it is born and lives in the heart.


In this book Iris Gattegno Tarbuk, the well-known spiritual medium and guide, shares her unique insights into love, how to achieve, recognize, enjoy and how to sustain it. Iris speaks about the spiritual nature of love between a man and a woman. The love which only a medium can see both in the known and the other world, in the eternal journey of searching for and finding soul mates. She speaks of happy and unhappy, long and short destinies and contacts of lovers and their carnal union with energies exchange through ***, which is the most powerful magic existing in the universe.


This book is "food for the soul", inspirational and meditative reading, and a manual with concrete advice, too. To the unloved, lonely, left, and to those deprived of their loved partner by death, Iris gives instructions, prayers and meditations how to cleanse their hearts and find their true love, how to remain in the relationship. To the couples who love each other, she gives advice how to cherish and nourish their love, how to keep their relationship happy.


Speaking about love, Iris primarily discriminates between true love and love delusions. True love joins soul mates and brings them life happiness, while love delusions result in misery, sadness, distress, disappointed people, destroyed families and unhappy children. When she writes about adultery and forgiveness, about marriage triangles and other temptations in love, she overcomes moralizing, politicizing and debating resulting from different perspectives. This book primarily aims at helping all people to find their true love, regardless of their world view, religious persuasion, sexual orientation, ***, age, appearance, health, nationality...


The concept of love


Love is perfect both in its content and form, it does not allow for any calculations and limitations. Otherwise it is not perfect, nor is it true. Love is something ideal, pure, without reservation, complete. If a relationship of two people is not like this, then it is not true love. In everyday life we name many relationships between two people 'love', although they are far from the concept of ideal love. That concept, besides the perfection of the soul, inevitably involves the body, so a human being is limited by that physicality. Is it possible to attain such a balance of the spirit and the body so as to achieve true love?


Review

This is a very interesting book. Since I have already found my one true love, I don't need to put any of this into effect in my life. However, I do find what it has to say very interesting. I do agree with it that love is ideal, pure, and complete. Love is two completely imperfect people coming together in something beautiful and amazing. Love is when you can look past a person's imperfections into their beautiful soul.

Adeline Hyaluronic Acid Serum & Organic Eye Serum Review






As a member of the Tomoson Blogger Community, I received a bottle of Adeline Hyaluronic Acid Serum for the purposes of review. All opinions are 100% my own. This post contains affiliate links.



As I've mentioned before, I've always had pretty good skin- but as I get older (I just turned 34), I have noticed that I'm having some dry spots and a little bit of aging. Recently, I've been trying several of these products. I've tried several different Hyaluronic Acid Serums and a few Eye Serums. One thing I did learn real quick is that you should never apply the Hyaluronic Acid Serum on a windburned face. I was out with my husband on the motorcycle in the cold and then when I applied the serum on my face after my shower- ouch!

When I tried Java Factory's Vanilla Dream is I decided that it was heaven in a cup and that a new favorite coffee!

While Vanilla Dream is still my favorite, I enjoy all the different coffees in the variety box. Each one is smooth, flavorful, and delicious. My boyfriend tried several different ones.

Vanabode: Travel Forever on $20 a Day Review



As a blogger in the Tomoson community, I received a copy of Vanabode: Travel Forever on $20 a Day for the purposes of my review. All opinions are 100% my own.

The Pacifier Book Review



As a Tomoson Panelist, I received an e-book copy of The Pacifier for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own. 




The Pacifier by Sophia Grace is a thriller/mystery book that was released in December 2014. It is available on Amazon Kindle.

Did you know that the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children says that around 800,000 kids are reported missing in the USA alone every single year. That's around 2,000 kids per day! That's a scary thought! 

This book is about a couple, John and Sophie, who have just arrived home at 2 AM after being out at a party. John goes upstairs to check in on the children and finds that they- and the babysitter have gone missing.

John calls the police- and the dispatcher mentions to an officer that the details are very similar to a case from the month before. Detectives are sent out. The forensics team discovers a bloody pacifier in one of the rooms and drugs in the pocket of John's suit- only John claims he's never done drugs.

The rest of the story follows the investigation of the disappearance of the children. They wan't to find the kids and the sitter before fear settles into the neighborhood.

Being a mom, stories like this really do strike fear in me- especially since our youngest is so friendly and never meets a stranger. Though this particular story is a fictional account- it just proves that you can't trust everyone. You have to be careful who you allow to be around your children. I recommend that all parents take the time to read this book!

You can get the book here:

iGotTech Texting Gloves for Smartphone and Touchscreen Review



I received a pair of iGotTech Texting Gloves for Smartphone and Touchscreen for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own. This post may contain affiliate links. 


Looking at these gloves, they look like basic knit gloves- which aren't really all that warm when the wind is blowing (or when you're riding at 45-50 MPH on a motorcycle). However, I figured since I was going to try them out, I'd do it right. So, when hubby and I went out on his motorcycle today, I chose to wear these instead of my other very basic, knit gloves.

CONGRATS TO OUR WINNER! 
Jaime Stroud

I'll be perfectly honest- during the summer months, I do typically get a pretty decent tan- but now that it's the dead of winter, my tan is long gone. My skin is pasty white- which really bothers me! I get extremely self-conscious in dresses or skirts because I'm practically blinding people with my white legs!
