AMARA ORGANICS VITAMIN C SERUM

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

Hi!  Welcome to another beauty product review by Dragonfly Tales. Believe me when I say, it is never too soon to begin good skin care.  One day I will post about my skin routine but for now on with the show!

Today I am reviewing Amara Organics Vitamin C Serum.  
In the past, I have been a little skeptical about products promising to reverse signs of aging.  I had some skin problems during my teen years.  My Mom took me to a dermatologist, but all the lotions and such did not stop the break outs.  However, I have no scarring so perhaps there were things going on that I just couldn't see.

That is not the case with Amara Organics Vitamin C Serum, I can see the difference in my skin.  And, I can feel the difference too!  It is Ooo lala so very soft!

 A friend of mine saw a picture of me taken ten years ago, she said "your face looks younger now than it did then".   Now, I have changed up my face soap and stuff like that other those ten years, but the only anti-aging product I have used is Vitamin C Serum.  I feel confidant in telling you that I believe Vitamin C Serum does in fact aid in bringing back your youthful skin.  My face looks very dewy and moisturized.  My blog profile picture was taken after using Amara Organics for approximately 3 weeks, and one can see my face does have a well hydrated look.  It works by increasing the collagen of your skin.

Before considering any kind of face lift or chemical peel, my advise would be to go to the Amara Organics website HERE and read all the benefits of using this product.

Amara Organics Vitamin C Serum may be purchased at AMAZON

"KEEP MOVING IN STYLE" with Cane Expressions!

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

 Hola, Como estas?  There, Fabrizzio, I have practiced my Spanish!  ;)

For those of us that do not know what I said.. ,  I am pretty sure I said, Hello, how are you?  So, let us hope that is the case! Even living in Ohio, just 3 hours from where I was raised people will ask me where I am from when they hear me talk. That leads me to believe I have a slight accent and combining a West Virginia accent with a Spanish accent seems like it could have ... "huh? what did she say" ... results!  But, I just cannot worry about it.  One just must try to do the best they can and do it in their own style.

The product I am reviewing for you today was started because a woman did not want to use her cane.  It was not her style.  She had instability problems, but thought her cane made her look old and it was unattractive.  One of her friends blinged it up for her by gluing a beaded belt on it.  And, Cane Expressions  was born. 
Cane Expressions is an interchangeable cover for ones..... you guessed it!  Cane!  They come in several different patterns, solid colors and even beaded.  They can be changed by taking the cane apart at the middle (where the height adjuster is) or by taking off the tip and sliding it up from the bottom.  

Cane Expressions are made in the USA.  They are available from several different merchants, all of which you will find on their website.  One may view Cane Expressions website HERE

Okay, so I love my OZERI skillet

Aye-yi-yi I can already tell this is going to be one of those spill my guts kind of posts.

You see, it all started when OZERI asked if I would be interested in reviewing another one of their products.  I have previously reviewed their scales.  I was sent a list of 10 items to choose from and.. well.. it was like looking at a Christmas wish list!  It was hard to choose just one thing.  But, their Green Earth Pan kept calling my name.  "Vicki, if you choose me, you will cook".  So, skillets talk to me.  Big deal.  ;)



Now, I come from a family of "cookers" and "bakers".  I've already discussed my "baking issues".  So, no need to reiterate that bit of woe-is-me news.  Now on to the next bit of info; I can cook (some stuff) and make it taste really good, okay edible, it is edible.  I'll be truthful with ya and tell ya that my family has actually questioned if I am really theirs.  ha!  But, then my kids are like my side of the family, so there in confirms the connection!  Maybe the cooking/baking part of my brain just does not have enough neurons firing! Or, maybe I really am a Princess.  Blahahaha!

Well, the skillet was right, since I have received it, I have cooked more.  Not anything fancy, but if I fix something in a skillet I consider that cooking.  That is my story and I'm stickin' to it.  No pun intended with the "stickin'" as nothing sticks to my beautiful "oh, I'm so proud of you skillet"!

The Green Earth Pan from OZERI is very different from those pans you see at some of the chain stores.  It is the world's first frying pan to provide non-stick perfection while giving off absolutely no harmful chemicals.   It is a lot heavier than other skillets I have had (yes, there have been a few).  And, I like that it is ceramic.  This does require some different care of the product, but all the instructions are very clear as to how to properly maintain your skillet.  It even comes with a handy-dandy pan protector, that one places in it while storing it.  OZERI sure does think of everything!

I feel really good about recommending OZERI products to you.  They offer many, many items, as one can see when they go to Amazon and type in the search box Ozeri.  One may purchase a talking  ;)  skillet just like mine at Amazon

WISHING MUCH LOVE AND HAPPINESS TO YOU ALL!

doTERRA Lifelong Vitality Pack

Welcome to another edition of Dragonfly Tales!  What will we get into today?  Will I divulge any more of my private life?  I don't know!  ha!  I never know until I start to write, then sometimes things just pop out!  Things flow in and out of my mind quickly, if I don't catch them in time, they are gone.  And, I am left to wonder... what was it I was thinking about?  ;)  I think there is a pill for that.  

"They" say the older one gets, the faster time passes.  I have found this to be true in my life.  I find it hard to believe it is nearing the end of March.  My Dad once told me his weeks consist of Monday and Friday.  Some days I feel as though I do nothing, but the week is over before I know it.  I remember a saying I heard many years ago:  "If I had known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself".  Well, I have stepped up to the plate and have started taking more responsibility towards my physical health.

With this in mind, I talked with my friend Gina.  Gina is a Wellness Coach for doTERRA Essential Oils.  She provided me with a doTERRA Lifelong Vitality Pack at no charge in exchange for my honest review of the product.
 This pack includes a 30 day supply of Alpha CRS+,xEO Mega, and Microplex VMz.  They are made with vegetable capsules and softgels. 

Some of the benefits of these vitamins include:  Cellular Longevity, Cellular Inflammatory Response, Cellular Energy, Powerful DNA Protection, Network Antioxidant Defense, Immune System Support, Stress Management, Cardiovascular Health, Bone and Joint Health, Brain/Cognitive Health (see, I told ya there was a pill for that) and Digestive Health.

I know there has been some debate as to whether taking oral vitamins are beneficial or not, but I have personally had blood work done to check vitamin levels.  I found that I was low on vitamin D.  After taking oral Vitamin D, my blood work now shows that I have a normal range of Vitamin D.  So, I am convinced that taking vitamins orally do work.  I also feel that one should take any vitamin regime for three months before deciding if they are beneficial to them.  

I met Gina  through my daughter.  She is a lovely woman.  I trust her judgement.  She uses these products for her family.  Her 13 year old son was there when I visited her to talk with her about doTERRA and he was very informative about the products!  This reiterated to me that Gina's whole family is a doTERRA family.  If you have any questions, she would be very happy to talk with you and guide you into what choices would be best for you, whether it be vitamins or essential oils.

One may contact Gina in the following ways:  phone: 740-879-4294
or e-mail   gina@yourlifewithpurpose.com

Her blog page can be found HERE , she can also be found on
FACEBOOK 

Thank you Gina!  Also, in case you missed it, Gina did a guest post that may be found HERE

SABI Folio strap + go weekly travel pill box review

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

Greetings and Salutations!  And, yes I did have to look up salutations to make sure it was a proper use.  ha!  It is used to show that I find you to be important!  And, you are!  

I am happy and I hope that things are well in your life also.  The review I have for you today may seem familiar as it is the smaller version of the item seen Here 

SABI was very kind to me and sent me two different sizes of their Folio travel pill boxes to review.  

As one can see this is a weekly pill box for morning and evening pills only.  Should you need a pill box with space for afternoon pills, they also make other pill boxes, which may be reviewed Here

The SABI Folio strap + go weekly travel pill box does stay firmly closed, and I feel good about recommending all of the SABI  
products I have reviewed.

Before making your next medical equipment purchase, have a look-see at what SABI has to offer.  I really like their belief that people's imperfections are what makes them beautiful.  I have a lot of imperfections.....  ;)   just  sayin'

FAN APPRECIATION GIVEAWAY EVENT








Welcome to the Life in a House of Testosterone Fan Appreciation Event!
Sponsored by: TopCashback.com
On February 11th this year, I turned 47. For me, that was a milestone in my life. Only three more years to go until I turn 50 and I can legitimately go all Maxine on my kids! I am literally counting down the days to when I can walk into their school with my slippers and housecoat on, hair up in curlers, dog tucked under one arm and a cup of coffee in the other. That's the threat anyway if I get called to the school for some nonsense or other that they have done!
In addition, I will be celebrating 10 YEARS BLOGGING on April 11th this year. I seem to have a "thing" with the number 11! So be sure to stay tuned for THAT particular little celebration! Life isn't perfect, for any of us, there are good days and bad, but feeling particularly nostalgic and sentimental on my birthday, I wanted to show my loyal fans who have been with me for all those years that I appreciate them. Old and new alike - without you, Life in a House of Testosterone wouldn't exist. So I thank each and every one of you for being a part of my life, for leaving me your comments or interacting with me on Facebook or Twitter, liking my silly photos on Instagram or re-pinning something silly of mine from Pinterest.

Stunningly Beautiful Jewelry by MAJESTICAL

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

Happy Stunningly Beautiful Sunday to all Stunningly Beautiful Dragonfly Tale visitors!  I hope that you are having a Stunningly Beautiful day!  Who can guess what the catch phrase is for the day?
If you guessed "Stunningly Beautiful" then Ding Ding Ding.. you win!   But, can you guess why this is today's catch phrase?  I'll give ya a hint.  Neh, I'll just tell ya the whole story.  It is because every time I wear the necklace and earrings that Majestical Jewelry 
sent me for review that is what I hear.  "Oh, that is just stunning". Or, "Your necklace is beautiful".

I get loads of comments on these lovely pieces and one can see why..

Aren't they Stunningly Beautiful!  And, so well made.  I am very impressed with the quality of this jewelry.  It is truly a statement piece.  "MAJESTICAL'S inventory changes quite often, so you will want to stop by their website anytime you are looking for something new.

Majestical  jewelry is handmade and was started by a small group of jewelry addicts in Charleston, SC. (USA)  They also have charms, bracelets, silver pieces, gemstones, pearls as well as many kinds of earrings and necklaces.  I am unsure if this is still in effect, but they were running a promotional code for $15 off order of $55 or more.  The code is 15DOLLARSOFF.  There was not an ending date on the letter I received so it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.  :)

I really like this company.  I feel confidant in recommending that you purchase from them.

FOLIO pill box review

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

Hello and Happy Saturday!  Thank you for stopping in today!  I love it!  You are appreciated!

Do you ever have trouble remembering if your took your medication for the day?  I do.  (But, if you are a regular reader of my blog, you already know.... I have issues.... Blahaha!  )  Anyway, I have a weekly pill box that I keep on the kitchen counter to help me keep track.  But the compartments are small.  The product I am reviewing for you today has been a great asset for me for my vitamins.

Ladies and Gentlemen I give you the FOLIO grande large strap + go  weekly travel pill box by SABI. 


I have not traveled since receiving this product but I enjoy using it at home.  I have a regime of vitamins that I take throughout the day.  I take several large capsules that will not fit in a square compartment pill box.  I usually just lay them out on the table in the morning so I can make sure that I take them.  Now, thanks to SABI, I have a handy-dandy place to keep them.  And, if I do leave for the day, I can just toss the box in my purse because the strap keeps the lid securely closed.  

The pill compartments are deep and rounded, kind of an elongated oval which makes my vitamins easy to remove.  I recommend this product to not only those who take larger sized capsules but those that take multiple pills twice a day.

You may purchase the FOLIO on Amazon 
It comes in two sizes.  This review is for the "large" size.

Feelings every woman should have said to her

 I am sharing part of my personal life with you today to remind you that God has a plan for you.  Plans for hope and a future.  That through God "All things are possible".  There is someone reading this that needs to know that things can happen quickly and unexpectedly and in the oddest of ways.  Just don't stop believing that they can.

I was on Skype with my guy when he sent these words to me:

Beautiful
Transparently beautiful
Relentlessly beautiful
Not poke out the stars nor the moon beautiful
Devilishly beautiful
Unabashedly beautiful
Excessively beautiful
Nothing in this universe could come close to your beauty.

(sigh)

His first language is Spanish, but I think he has English down pretty darn good   ;)

There are obstacles, such as different countries, but if God is for us, who (what) can be against us?

Like some of you, I was afraid to let myself love again, but I am so glad that I did not miss out on him or his heart felt words.  I did not make things easy for him.  I was scared.  I did not want to love or be loved again.  He listened to my fears and he stayed.

I have faith that God is greater than any obstacles between us, and I believe in Fabrizzio and I.  Better than I was, more than I am with Fabrizzio Biojó Perdomo

             
             


 WISHING MUCH LOVE AND HAPPINESS TO YOU ALL!

SABI "Sporty" Cane to the rescue!

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.
  
Hi.  Welcome to a new review by Dragonfly Tales!

And a "this is my life."  lol.   Hello, my name is Vicki, and I am a "klutz".  A "bull in a china shop", a "cow on crutches", a "person that can fall in the grass and break her leg so badly that it requires surgery with a plate and screws"!  Whew that felt good to admit! 

I remember as a young child trudging along behind my grandpa in the woods.  The first thing we would always do was find a "walking stick".  I assumed this was for my Grandpa's stability.  Now... I'm not so sure.  He was probably thinking.. "she will be down more than she is up, if I don't give her a stick".  Blahahaha!  Good Times!

Once I fell into the flower bed at the mall, my little girl would not hold my hand the remainder of the time we were at the mall.  I guess she valued her life.  LOL  I was making memories!

The good people of Sabi must have heard of my lack of coordination because I was sent a cane to review.  ;)  It is pretty and pink!  I love me some pink. 
This cane is an all terrain aid for when you want to go that extra mile.  It is referred to as a "sports" cane.  It would be awesome for walking in the woods.  Oh, if Grandpa could see me now.  Heehee

This cane is not adjustable, which makes it very stable.  It has a very comfortable, soft handle, and the tip has a good grip.  

I personally feel that every household should have a Sabi sport cane
on hand.  They are so reasonably priced, and one just never knows when they may have need of a little extra help.  For instance, my Dad was taking some medication that made him dizzy, he ended up falling and cracking his pelvis.  I believe if he had had a cane available to him at the time, he could possibly have prevented a fall, because he would have had some extra stability.  

I am knocking on wood as I say " I have not fallen in two years".  I may have gotten my groove on.  ;)

AGELESS DERMA CONCEALER REVIEW

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

Hello, and thank you for being a part of my day!  I love my job!  Lovely companies send me products to test, I get to try them and give ya'll my opinion.  How awesome is that?  :)  

I really like when I work with a company more than once which is the case with Ageless Derma.  I have reviewed for them before, we have a good rapport.  I am happy with them, they are happy with me, it is a win-win. And, you also win by learning about some great products!

Today I will be discussing Ageless Derma Natural Camoufleur Concealer.
This all natural concealer contains vitamins A, E and apple extract.  It does not contain Parabens, and is not tested on animals.  It is a camouflage that can be used to help hide scars, dark circles, port wine stains, dark spots, and redness associated with rosacea.  My primary reason for wanting to test Ageless Derma Camoufleur Concealer, is due to flare ups of rosacea. I'll admit, it did hurt my feelings when my dermatologist told me my best option was camouflage.  But, Ageless Derma makes it easier.  And, I do not like to use so much make up that it completely changes what I really look like.  When people see me without make-up, they still recognize me.  ;)

I am quite pleased with this product.  I chose to receive it in the color medium.  It is kind of a salmon color, which is also good for counter acting blue tones under ones eyes.  The consistency is creamy, it feels very rich.  I have had no caking.  It does not settle into fine lines (not that I have any)  :/  ha!  Okay, okay I have a few  Blahaha!  Wow I am really baring my flaws today!  I might as well tell ya, I am also using  Ageless Derma to camo the place where I burnt myself on my forehead with my curling iron.   DOH!  That's gonna leave a mark.  

While it is true that true beauty lies within, we all want to look in the mirror and feel happy with the face we see looking back at us.  With a little help from Ageless Derma Camoufleur Concealer, I can achieve that.

"MAGGIES" THE FASHION MAGNET

Hello Dear Ones.  As always, I want to take this opportunity to tell you how much I value each and every one of you.  I know that many of you have busy lives and hope that when you come to Dragonfly Tales, you will leave with having learned of something new or getting a chuckle out of some of the scrapes I get myself into!

Today, I have such an awesome product to tell you about.  It is called:  "maggies". (tm) The Original Fashion Magnet.  And, Oh how original it is!  I love, adore, feel every household should have at least one set of "maggies".


"Maggies" is a magnetic cloth fastener which was designed by Ms. Margaret Sinclair.  This very powerful magnet will hold several layers of fabric together.  One can use the "maggie" to hold shawls, scarves, and sarongs together.  You no longer have to use pins to hold your delicate fabric together.

 



This is my granddaughter, Haley, showing how the "maggie" is used to hold the scarf on over the shoulder  in the first picture and in the last two pictures she actually used the "maggie" to attach the scarf to her shirt.  In the last picture she is showing the ball part of the "maggie", which one does not see in the second picture.

I searched for other ways to use them, and one  handy way for me to use them is for holding a towel around me, or around my shoulders.  If you color your own  hair, you know the difficulty of keeping a towel in place around your shoulders.  Well, No More!  This set of magnets holds a towel in place with no slipping.  So, just because you may not wear scarves does not mean that you would have no uses for the "maggie".  Get the check in the mail!  :)

You get 2 sizes and they are so powerful that I was able to just stick them on my refrigerator while they were still in the case they come in!  

The designer, Ms. Sinclair is such an accomplished person.  The "maggie" is her 8th U.S. patent.  In the past, she designed medical equipment and clothing.  I have only "talked" with Ms. Sinclair through e-mail but one can tell she is the kind of woman you would like to spend time getting to know.

Another thing that I like about the "maggie", is that it is made in the USA.  It would behoove you to check out the "maggie" website HERE and see for yourself all of the fascinating ways this product can be used.  They may be purchased on line HERE
They are also sold in specialty boutique stores.  With spring just around the corner, (please, please Dear Lord, let spring be just around the corner) now is a great time to purchase "maggies" for an Easter gift!

Make your life easier with more fashion options using "maggies"!  Can you tell I really, really love this product?  :)

Wishing Much Love and Happiness to You

Vicki

CARAFE Water Cup with pill compartment

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

Hello dear readers.  I hope today finds you happy and healthy.  I am doing well.  I have a case of winter/snow sickness and if they made a pill for that, this new product that I am reviewing would be even handier than it already is, even though I don't think that is possible.

Today I am reviewing for you the   Carafe Water cup with two-compartment pill box inside the cap by Sabi  (http://sabi.com/)





This is one handy dandy product.  As one can tell there is a nice sized split compartment for medication in the middle part and then a stoppered lid fits on top of the water and pills until one is ready to use them.
Fortunately, I have not been ill since receiving this product, but I can see the advantages to having this by my bedside during those times when I have a cold and just want to take a quick something-something without having to get out of bed.
I also find it useful when traveling for the day.  It fits in the cup holder of my car and should I need to take my medication while out, I have everything I need to do so.
Sabi offers many medical products, some of which I will be reviewing over the next few weeks.  In the mean time, here are ways  you can connect with Sabi;  blog:  blog.sabi.com
Facebook, twitter:  @sabi_brand
This CARAFE may be purchased at Amazon where it carries a 5 star review. 
This would make a great gift for those that have everything!

Wishing you much love and happiness

Vicki
