Pure Body Naturals #ArganOil Review


I was pretty intrigued with this versatile Argan Oil
and anxious to try it out.
I use essential oils all the time but
wasn't familiar with this particular one.  



What exactly is Argan Oil?

Argan oil is pressed from the nut of the fruit of the Argan Tree, which is only found in Morocco. The Argan tree lives to be about 150 to 200 years old and does not start producing the fruit until it is 30 to 50 years old. Because the tree is found only in a limited area, the oil itself is quite rare.

Pure Body Naturals Argan oil has one ingredient - Pure Organic Argan Oil: Pure USDA & ECO Certified Organic Moroccan Argan Oil. There are no additives or fillers whatsoever! The oil is all natural, USDA certified organic, and unrefined imported directly from Morocco.  Pretty Impressive! 


Earlier I mentioned it was versatile, it seems to cover you head to toe,  keeping your body radiant by restoring hair, skin, and nails

Pure Body Naturals Organic Argan Oil is said to give you:
Revitalized, Repaired and Radiant Hair
Moisturized Hydrated Beautiful Skin
Strong and Healthy Nails
Treating dry and unhydrated skin, eczema
Reduce Symptoms of Aging like Wrinkles and Puffiness
An all-round Healthy Beautiful Attractive Glow


Each of us here seem to have our own issues so we were able to try the Argan oil out on a few different problems. It's been about 7 or so days since we've starting using it on a regular basis.

My daughter used the oil on her hair,
especially the ends where it's dry.
 It left her hair silky and vibrant, no more dry frizzy ends. 


My hands are probably my worst problem area.
It seems they are always in water,
and well, once your a Mom they seem to go to the bottom of the priory list. My nails seems to be getting brittle as I age but my cuticles are the worst, so dry they even crack. 
I'd love to have a manicure on a regular basis but it's not in the cards. I never seem to have enough time to give one to myself,
but once in a while I do snag some time.
My cuticles are so ugly, they just seem to ruin the look no matter what I do.
See :/  



So I was excited to try see if Argan Oil would help.

Just look at them now!

They never looked or felt so good!
Even after a day of chores my nails have a nice sheen to them.
The dry look is gone and Argan Oil is here to stay!
The backs of my hands look so much better also.



I also had a small dry patch on my left elbow. No matter what I gooped on it, it wouldn't go away! But it is now gone and my left is as smooth as my right elbow!!
Amazing! I've been dealing with that patch for years and it cleared up in 3 days.


It's done such a good job on that patch I've started putting some on the bottoms of my feet at night and wearing socks to bed. Yep, they are getting much smoother and feel so good.

I do have to mention the oil is light and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feeling.

Not only does Pure Body Naturals Argan Oil get a
BIG 2 thumbs up
for tackling so many problem issues and winning, but  it also has a Lifetime 100% Money Back PROMISE if you are not satisfied in any way.   


Pure Body Naturals Pure Argan Oil is available at Amazon.

Mega Mesh Premium Magnetic Screen Door Review ~ #magneticscreendoor



Answer to my prayers!
 I have sliding glass doors that lead to the back yard. The sliding screen door that came with the house has always had an issue with the spline staying in place to hold the screen. Needless to say the screen has been flapping in the breeze!



Not very useful at keeping bugs out!

 

I had seen this product before and had wondered if it could be installed in my screen door frame, since the dogs have become used to walking through the flapping screen.
I was hoping to kill two birds with one stone.

So I was thrilled to be chosen to review


I was impressed with how easy it was to install,  a lot of products say that, but it's actually true with Easy Install, great company name btw ;)
  I was a little concerned about the Mega Mesh Premium Magnetic Screen Door since Mother Nature is blessing us with some good rain storms this year, but the rain hasn't bothered it a bit. We like to listen to the rain and now are able to open the sliding door and keep those clingy winter flies outside! 
When the sun peeks through we're able to enjoy the clean smelling fresh air too. 

 My pets can still go in and out as they please, we do have a dog door but they prefer the human door, of course!

 Tora

Katie wondering if it's ok to go through the new screen

 Yes, it is!

Nothing holds Bella back!

I love that I was able to adapt it to my sliding screen door. The screen itself is nice and solid, good weight, not flimsy like was in there before. I'm now able to keep the screen door closed at all times because I can walk right through it. No more sliding back and forth, it falling off the rollers and fighting to get it back on!

Being able to walk through with your hands full is a dream, especially taking food out to and from the BBQ!

Watching those strong magnets close still amazes me.
I think I could watch it close by itself all day! LOL

Bypass Hand Pruning Shears Review ~ #pruningshears



 Boy was I excited to be chosen to review these Pruning Shears by Whites! With pruning time in full swing, my umpteen year old hand pruners were ready to bite the dust.
I anxiously patiently awaited their arrival.

I opened them up and my first impression was that had a nice weight, not heavy like my old timers,
but not lightweight like some you find in the newer ones .
I'm told 8 1/2 oz. to be exact!
All steel robust construction makes them feel sturdy
 and well made.  
No weak aluminum parts to break.


I put them to work immediately.
I only had some lighter trimming left to do,



but found a few larger Roses which I missed a few branches on.
They went through the thicker stems just as easy as the smaller ones, with about the same effort.
I'm impressed!




What I loved the most was the non-slip grip on the handles.
It made them feel so secure in my hand,
I didn't have to constantly readjust them
 which made things move much faster.



I have some nerve issues with my arms which after any prolonged activity sends some pain/numbness down to my hands/fingers.
I found these to be very comfortable to use and didn't experience any of that uncomfortable feeling. 




Like I said, just some light pruning left ;)


Not only was I impressed while using these,
they come risk free with a no hassle 180 day unconditional guarantee from date of purchase!
That's a big 2 thumbs up in my opinion!
They are available here on Amazon.
What a great gift for the gardener in your life!

Blow Me A Kiss ~ Hershey's That Is! #MerryKissmas, #VoxBox

Blow me a kiss!


I'm so excited to be selected to receive my very first Influenster box! It arrived in the mail today!


A sweet treat indeed for the sweet tooth, the #MerryKissmas VoxBox! Who doesn't love the original milk chocolate Hershey’s Kisses? They bring back such childhood memories. That delicious chocolate melting in your mouth, oh don't get me wrong. I'd eat a couple first then savor some letting them melt in my mouth
 s l o w l y.  LOL 

They are so fun to wrapped in their seasonal colors for whatever Holiday it happens to be. And their assortment of flavors has become a much difficult decision. That reminds me, I need to get some Candy Cane Kisses!

A full bag of Hershey’s Kisses, what to do with them?
well, if it was up to the kids they'd be gone in 2 seconds flat!

Their are a ton of fun projects you can create with them and this is certainly the time of year to do it! For some inspiration check out Hershey's Kisses Crafts.

But I had to act fast!
The kids were chomping at the bit!
Here's a few very simple little ones can even do.

An Evergreen Wreath with red Holly Berries and silver bow 


 A simple triangle Christmas tree with red ornaments
and silver topper

This one has a trunk ;)

 Christmas Color Display

Ty made the cutest Tree!


 I was able to snatch them to hide long enough so I could
make a batch of Peanut Butter Blossoms!
YUMMY!

Here's the recipe in case you need it.

Ingredients:

48 HERSHEY'S KISSES Brand Milk Chocolates
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup REESE'S Creamy Peanut Butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Additional granulated sugar(optional)

Directions

Heat oven to 375°F. Remove wrappers from chocolates.
      Beat shortening and peanut butter in large bowl until well blended. Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar and brown sugar; beat until fluffy. Add egg, milk and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into peanut butter mixture.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in granulated sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheet. 
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately press a chocolate into center of each cookie; cookie will crack around edges. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Makes about 48 cookies.

Need I say they were gone in the blink of an eye ;)
Did I mention they are a great little Hostess,
 Neighbor, Teacher, etc. Gift?
How sweet is this little Rose Bud Bouquet?
My daughter made this for me for Valentine's Day last year.
But what a sweet little Christmas gift  
Materials Needed:
2 Hershey's Kisses Candies
Wooden Skewer
Colored Cellophane (You Can Use Clear)
Floral Tape
Silk Flower Leaves (optional)
Cellophane Tape
Scissors

Instructions: Use a small, rolled piece of tape to hold the two wrapped candy Kisses together, bottom to bottom. Cut a piece of colored cellophane into a 6" square. Place the tip of one of the kisses into the center of the cellophane and then fold the cellophane up around both kisses. Twist the cellophane to secure it.
Hold the wrapped kisses against the end of the wooden skewer and wrap it tightly with floral tape, winding the tape all of the way down the stick. If desired, you can add silk flower leaves and attach them to the stem using the floral tape.
Wishing you and yours 25 days of #MerryKissmas!!
and, of course, Pinterest for some great Seasonal Inspirations!
