Monday Bites: Magic Spoon Cereal Review

Posted in Amazon, breakfast, foodie, Healthy Foods, review by

Happy Monday you guys! I hope you had a great weekend! It’s really starting to look like spring here in California, it’s been so pretty.

I got a question for you all….On Saturday mornings, what was your favorite type of cereal? For me, it was Lucky Charms and Reeses Puffs. Now that we’re older, I know we are all trying to reduce our sugar intake? Am I right? Not cut it all out but at least have less. Well ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce Magic Spoon to you all. Magic Spoon cereals bring back your child like cereals but in an adult way. Listen to this:

  • High Protein with 13-14 grams of Proteins
  • Keto Friendly with only 4 grams of net carbs
  • Low Carb
  • Gluten Free
  • Grain Free
  • Soy Free
  • Wheat Free
  • 0 grams of sugar

I ordered my variety pack from Amazon and here are the flavors that were included:

  1. Peanut Butter – remember when I mentioned that one of my favorite cereals growing up was Reese’s Puff? Well this was literally an exact reminder of my childhood memories. Yes a bit less sweet, but that’s the beauty of it!
  2. Frosted – this one reminded me of Frosted Flakes (theeeey’re GREEEEEAT) and Frosted Cheerios
  3. Cocoa – it honestly reminded me of the many chocolate cereals we grew up on: Cocoa Puffs, Chocolate Cheerios and Chocolate Peebles
  4. Fruity – of course we had to have a fruit flavored cereal! This reminds me of course Fruity Pebbles and Fruit Loops.

If I had to choose a favorite, it would have to be Peanut Butter hands down. First of all, I love most things that taste like peanut butter and its healthy! Here’s to 2022 being healthier than the past years!

What are your favorite cereals growing up? Would you try this?

Moroccan Gold Series Treatment Mask Review

Posted in Argan Oil, curly hair, FabFitFun, Haircare, Moroccan Gold Series by

Happy first Monday of summer loves!

Can you believe we’re already in summer?! Time goes by so fast these days right?!

So this might be a first for me but I’m almost hitting pan on one of my favorite hair treatments ever! Hence, this blog post: a review on my Moroccan Gold Series Treatment Hair Mask.

I was lucky enough to get this with my Winter 2018 Fab Fit Fun box and I’ve been using it ever since. Somehow it lasted me till now!

What is it? 

It’s an intense care treatment for dry and damaged hair. It seals split ends, strengthens hair, and makes your hair more manageable with a strong blend of keratin and pure Moroccan argan oil.

How I use it? 

For the most part, I do use it as an overnight hair treatment. Simply use your shampoo and conditioner as usual. After I get out of the shower, I’ll towel dry my hair and start applying the mask in sections until my hair is saturated with the treatment. I’ll then put it in a bun and cover my hair using the satin cap bonnet. Then when I take a shower, I just rinse it out real good. That’s it!

My Outcome: 

I really do love it! When I apply it after the shower its gives you somewhat of a light feeling but then again i saturated my hair with this stuff! When I rinse off the deep conditioner (as I call it), my hair feels amazing and feels hydrated. I’ve recently have started to love my curls so I need all of the moisture I can get especially in this crazy Los Angeles heat.  As for the scent, let me tell you! It’s an light argan scent where you can smell other oils such as rosemary, tea tree, sunflower, shea and avocado oil.

Vali Hair Strong Vitamins Review

Posted in Amazon, review, Vali, vitamins by

Happy Thursday loves!

I hope you’ve all been great! Things have been hectic these few pasts weeks but I promise I’m back for good! I’ve got so many things and ideas planned for this blog!

This is an overdue review but like they always say, better late than never right?!

I’ve been wanting to get my hair more manageable since it’s always just so curly. So when I got the opportunity to get selected to review the Vali Hair Strong Vitamins, I had to try it.

Here’s the lowdown on these vitamins:

**It’s a dietary supplement that helps with hair health and growth as well as having thicker “fuller” and stronger.

**No artificial flavors of preservatives and is vegetarian!

**To use: Take 2 capsules once daily and for best results use it for at least 30 days.

**Helps with radiant skin and nail as well.

**Ingredients include: Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Biotin, Zinc, Hyaluronic Acid, Bamboo Stem Extract, Solubilized Keratin, Stinging Nettle Root Extract, Saw Palmetto Berry Extract, Horsetail Whole Herb Powder and Collagen powder.

My Take on these vitamins:

I’ve tried other hair vitamins but in my honest opinion, my favorite is now this one. Like I’ve mentioned before, my hair is very curly and sometimes just way to curly to manage. But to my surprise, as I started using it, my hair started to show signs of improvement! That’s never happened before. For the first week or so, I just took one capsule a day just so my body could get used to it.

After the first week, I started taking 2 capsules a day and even when I did that, my hair, skin and nails improved greatly. At one point, I was washing my hair in the shower and guess what? Combing through it was just perfect, no knots or tangles. What usually takes up to 30 minutes to wash my hair, it got cut down to just 15 minutes. Thank God, it’s a miracle!

I’ve never really had an issue with my nails but I did notice that they started chipping and breaking, so by using this vitamin it helped out as well.

Out of many things I’ve tried, these vitamins are a win for me and I will gladly buy another one or two bottles of this heaven sent hair vitamins!

** Amazon has it for $19.99 while Vali has it for $24.99

Oceanic Nutra Vitamin B6 Review

Posted in All Natural Products, Amazon, B6 Vitamins, Oceanic Nutra, review, vitamins by

Happy Easter Sunday loves! I hope you all had a great week! I hope you all have a blessed Easter for those who celebrate it!

I don’t know about you guys, but I feel like 2018 is a completely different year for me!

I finally got a new full time job and I’m loving it at the moment and also training at a financial firm! I’m so excited.  So when I got the opportunity to review Oceanic Nutra Vitamin B6,  it was a no brainer for me to try this vitamin out! This job entails using your mind and noticing the small things so I figured there’s no real cons to testing it.

The Claims:

ELECTROLYTE BALANCE- Vitamin B6 helps keep sodium and potassium and serotonin to boost mood.

HEALTHY METABOLISM- B6 assists the body process protein and promotes weight loss energy.

DIGESTIVE HEALTH- May help bloating, water retention, and colon health support.

CARDIOVASCULAR AND MUSCULAR SUPPORT- Vitamin B6 provides the necessary support for heart health

VISION AND EYE HEALTH- Vitamin B6 is the key to supporting vision, focus and cognition.

Vitamin B6 helps support:

*Skin

*Eye Health

*Liver Function

*Digestive System

*Muscular and Nervous System Performance

*Mood

*Energy

My Results:

I realized that when I first started this new job, it wouldn’t be like the other ones I’ve had. Meaning that I would have to wake up earlier, have an efficient breakfast and prep for my day. I would usually just wake up a little bit before an hour I would have to be up, get any type of breakfast and coffee and just go to work.

That’s not the case anymore though!

Eye and Vision Health: I did see and feel differently after taking these vitamins for a month or two. You would think that after working on a computer for 7 hours, your eyes would be dry and in pain. But the quite opposite happened, I didn’t have a problem when I got home.

Energy and Weight Loss: I do feel like it somewhat curbs your appetite which is good since I’m usually one to snack on something every few hours. Usually junk food but I’ve felt a difference. I get more energy during the day at the time most people crash around 3:30pm. As for the focus and cognition, I think it really helped during these first 2 months of my new job.

Lastly but not least. the pills aren’t that big and very easy to swallow.

Is it worth it? Would I buy it again?

Yes and Yes! I would recommend this if you’re forgetful and need more focus in life.

Transformation Thursday: You are a Badass Preview

Happy Thursday loves!

Apparently this week is all different post wise! I’ve been on a book shopping spree and I’m loving my recent purchase. I’ve long past the romance fiction reading phase and now I’m into self help books. (*Thats what happens when you turn 30!*) 😛

My recent purchase was: You are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life by Jen Sincero. I really have been enjoying self help books that speak their mind and don’t sugar coat things! I personally love having the idea of having people tell me straight out what’s going on.

I’ve been jumping around the pages finding a feel for the book and I came across: “If you want to live a life you’ve never lived, you have to do things you’ve never done.”

Have you guys read any interesting books lately? I would love to hear it!

 

His Endless Love Book Review

Posted in Amazon, Book Review, Books, Goodreads, inspiration by

Happy Saturday loves!

Don’t you hate it when you can’t finish a book you’ve been trying to finish?! Well in this case, I finished it in 2 days! I was lucky enough to get chosen to read and review a book that my fellow blogger wrote. His Endless Love: Unconditional and Everlasting by Samantha Sali. To be honest though, I haven’t read any inspirational books as I used to, but this book made me want to get back into it.

In this book, Samantha talks about finding God’s love throughout her life. Despite everything she went through, she opened her heart and feelings to help other people as well.

What I really liked about this book was that she used her own experiences as well as other people’s experiences and advice. No matter whatever is happening in your life, you still have that one person who loves you and wants to be with you forever. God. If a man who’s daughter was brutally murdered can forgive her murderer, why can’t we do the same?!

I am definitely looking forward reading her next book!

 

She Can Fly Book Review

Posted in Amazon, Book Review, Books by

Have you ever read a book that you started reading in public, but later on couldn’t?!

38, 028,000: The number of women who have experienced physical intimate partner violence in their lifetimes. 

I was lucky enough to receive a signed copy of She Can Fly, written by Michael G. Gabel and lived by Kerry Keyes.

Picture this: A young girl finding the man of her dreams who sweeps her off her feet and treats her like a princess. But something happens to his personality one day coming home from work. He’s pissed off and does the unthinkable when she asks how his day went. He slaps her as he’s pissed off. He says sorry and that he’ll never do it again but it does happen again and again. Having to make her do things against the law and threatening to take her children away. Then one day she gets caught and goes through so many struggles and when she does get out and lives her life, she goes under a new identity.

she can fly

The Main Characters:

*Kerry: a bright smart young woman who got caught up with the wrong guy and had to go through so much things to get her where she is now.

*Wayman: a man who seemed like a gentlemen who doesn’t show his true colors until later and is a ruthless man who doesn’t know when to stop.

Mikey: a young boy that Kerry had babysat and she became his best friend. He plays an important role in this book, but you don’t know when! 😉

How many times have you heard about a domestic violence case and it didn’t make sense that the woman stayed in the relationship? This book goes behind the scenes to show you it’s not always easy to get out. There’s so many things we don’t know about domestic violence cases.
