IMG_1377I found this great line of candy from Surf Sweets. Surf Sweets has a complete line of all-natural, organic gummy candy and jelly beans.  In addition to using natural, organic ingredients, Surf Sweets candy provides 100% of your Vitamin C per serving.

I love all the great products that Surf Sweets has.  They come in a couple different size bags – the .9oz Snack size and then the larger bag 2.75 oz.  They have good variety of sweets too including the new Peach Rings, Watermelon Rings, Sour Berry Bears, Jelly Beans, Fruity Hearts and more.  IMG_1379

 

 

 

I really like the small snack size perfect for a treat at lunch or after school.  You can feel good about giving these treats to your kids because the products are free of trans fats, GMOs, corn syrup, gluten, artificial colors and flavors.

vapurI am trying to drink more water and have been looking for a better water bottle than the one I have.  I found these Anti-bottles at vapur. They make a reusable water bottle that will stand when full  and can be rolled or folded flat when empty.shades-cyan Which I really like ~ when Monday rolls around and I bring in my weekly supply it is nice that the bottle doesn’t take up much room.

The bottle I have is the Shades with the durable flexibility of the Anti-Bottle combined with a custom Vapur SuperCap.  This half-liter is also just the right size to accessorize any purse or pack. I love the size it is not too big and the water stays cold.

The bottles are made in the United States and are durable, freezable, dishwasher safe and BPA-free. About 87% lighter than typical rigid bottles, the slim, flexible Anti-Bottle only packs water weight. It also uses less energy to make and transport than rigid bottles, so not only is the Anti-Bottle light on your load, its environmental impact is also pretty “lite.” Vapur now has multiple product lines of Anti-Bottles, ranging from the highly-technical Element to the Quencher line for kids.

If you would like to purchase your own vapur bottle you can do so HERE.  You can also connect with them on Facebook.

UdderlyI am always looking for a good hand/body lotion. I recently tried some products from Udderly Smooth®. I remember Udderly Smooth® from when I was younger – I grew up on a farm and I think this or something like this was what they used on the cows, but now it is made for dry and chapped skin on anyone. IMG_1710

Here is my favorite product from Udderly Smooth®. It is the Body Cream. I love that it is greaseless and stainless.  I use it after my shower and it soaks into my skin leaving it feeling soft and clean smelling.  It contains rich moisturizing ingredients that perform to soften dry, chapped skin.

IMG_1366

 

Here is a twin pack of Udderly Smooth® I brought this too work and the girls visit my desk often and use my lotion.  I am already on the second tube and I haven’t had it there that long.  They like to use this on their hands – and so do I.  It soaks in good and really doesn’t have much of a scent.  Leaves your hands soft and smooth.

 

IMG_1367

I don’t like to wear shoes and wear flip flops or go barefoot most of the time – so my feet show the wear and are often rough and dry.  I try to sue this Udderly Smooth® Foot Cream when I get out of the shower every morning and then before I go to bed. This Shea Butter Foot Cream contains shea butter to make a more intensive moisturizer. It really works good.

I really am glad I found Udderly Smooth® and recommend using their products they are good for anyone including people with:

*Dry and chapped skin
* As a shaving lotion
* Diabetes skin care
* Hand and Foot Syndrome- a side effect of chemotherapy drugs
* Chamois cream for bicyclists
* Needlework and quilting

If you would like to purchase Udderly Smooth® you can do so HERE or at main local stores including Shoko, Walgreens and Dollar Tree stores. You can connect with Udderly Smooth® on Facebook.

Udderly Smooth® has offered one of my readers the same products I received ~ 12 oz Udderly Smooth Body Cream, 8 oz Udderly Smooth Shea Butter Foot Cream and Twin pack of 4 oz tubes. You must be 18+ and have a US shipping address. Leave a comment on what product you like best from the Udderly Smooth® line. Follow Udderly Smooth® on Facebook.

32Just have lunch and heading to a meeting?  Notice the onions you had on your sandwich?  You may want to try 32 by Tomas P Connelly DDS. IMG_1372These great tasting little packets of effervescent breath crystals utilize both zinc and isovoxy, destroying bacteria and the odors they cause. Leaving your breath minty, fresh and clean!

They remind me of Pop Rocks for adults I really like the peppermint ones.  I feel more confident after taking a packet of 32 no need to worry about my breath. 32 last for up to four hours.  32 gets rid of the odor.  The packets are easy to carry either in your pocket, purse or briefcase.

Using 32 is better for you than chewing gum and you don’t have to worry about finding a place to throw it out when it loses it flavor like gum.  Chewing gum is not very professional and doesn’t really look that great in the business world.

If you would like to purchase 32 you will need to order it online HERE. You can connect with 32 on Facebook.

Engage Green Logo 2

As you know I look for retails, products and food items that are natural or are green.  I found Engage Green which is known for its unique, fashionable designs made out of Recycled Plastic [PET], Recycled Paper and sustainable materials like Organic Cotton, Hemp and Cork.

IMG_1310I received this great Spanish Mosaic Tote which happens to be one of my favorite bags.  I love how it looks and the colors but what I really like is that it is made from Recycled Woven Paper mixed with cotton fibers for extra strength. Engage Green Recycled Paper is a high-quality fiber, durable, water resistant and biodegradable at the end of life. This Medium tote even has handles made from recycled plastic.

The inside is padded so you could use it for your ipad or any notebook  up to 13″ but I use it as my purse and I love it. The inside is lined from organic cotton and there is a zippered pocket and mobile holder. Its water resistant and if it gets dirt I can just wipe it off.

Engage Green has many great bags it is hard to choose just one. I really like that Engage Green cares about the environment and reuses items that would end up in the dump. They use a process called The Green Cycle: – choose the right material, create functional designs and engage environmentally conscious consumers. Engage Green believes in durable luxury that is made to last and perform well in all weather conditions.

You can purchase your own Engage Green Tote or other products HERE.  You will feel good about buying something that is environmentally conscious.  You can follow Engage Green on Facebook.

bee rescued

I had never used products that used Honey before and wasn’t even aware there were so many different products made with honey.  I found this site called Bee Rescued and they have a whole line of products and I got to try many of them.  What I like is Little Honeyzzz began as a small, family-run beekeeping operation in Southern Wisconsin, known for raising their honeybees without the use of any antibiotics, pesticides, or corn syrup based food supplements. This means that the Bee Rescued Propolis Care products are 100% Chemical Free.

IMG_1281 I want to tell you about the products that I used.  The first was the Original Honeybee Eye Cream with Propolis and Royal Jelly. Propolis and Royal Jelly are know for their  healing properties and both are in this eye cream.  This cream is used as a natural answer to reducing dark circles, crows feet, and a host of other facial issues.
Use around the eyes or all over for a healthy, glowing, and beautiful skin. I liked how the cream soaked into my skin and didn’t leave it greasy feeling.

The next item was the Original Honey and Propolis Hand Cream – I loved how this product helped my hands feel soft and smooth – the older I get the drier my hands get and this really helps.

The next I tried was the Propolis Moisturizing Cream. I really liked how this made my skin look – and it soaked in so well.  A little goes a long way.

Then I used the Propolis Lip Balm – I loved this product once you put it on it last for hours and it helps your lips feel soft and not dry. IMG_1280

I also received the Original Propolis Lotion Bar this product gives you the convenience of a solid bar, and the moisturizing capability of the finest lotions.
Convenient, easy to use, and capable of hydrating the driest skin.  I like to use it right of the shower.

The next item was the Original Propolis Rescue Balm which is formulated as a natural choice for anyone looking to rescue their skin from the worst dry, cracked, or chapped problem areas. I have used this on my feet, I hate wearing shoes so my feet take a beating this makes them look and feel better.

IMG_1282

 

I have been using the Propolis Shaving Gel for her in the shower  ~ I love how smooth my legs feel when I am finished.

I also have been using the Propolis Toothpaste. It is Lloaded with the best propolis available from our hives, our 100% natural propolis toothpaste delivers maximum propolis to your teeth and gums. With clove oil and tea tree oil, this toothpaste packs one awesome punch!
Soothing to the gums and great for sensitive teeth, it really is the best!  I love the taste of the toothpaste and my mouth feels clean and fresh.

IMG_1283

The last item I received is the Raw Bee Pollen. Bee pollen is one of nature’s most powerful super foods. It has been used as a dietary supplement and food source for thousands of years. It has been used as a physical rejuvenator and medicine in ancient civilizations.
Bee pollen has been touted for helping people to lose weight, increase energy and stamina. It may enhance the immune system, relieve allergy, ease digestion problems, slow the aging process, and much more. Rex has been taking the Raw Bee Pollen – he says he feels better and has more energy.  He works grave yard 4 nights a week – so for him his sleep pattern gets a bit mixed up.  He says that this gives him have more energy.

I was really happy to learn more about Honey and Propolis and use the different products that I had not used in the past. If you would like to purchase any of these great products you can do so HERE.  You can also connect with them on Facebook.
