I am a sucker for all things Essential Oils! I have been using this SlimWay Grapefruit Essential Oil Blend by Phytopia for about a week now. It's supposed to help speed up your metabolism and curb your appetite which in the long run can help you loose weight. For the week that I have been using it has in fact helped curb my appetite, especially my sweet tooth cravings. Yay! I can't tell if it's helped speed up my metabolism but I have had more energy, especially in the evenings, which for me is a sign that it might be working. Thank goodness. I need all the help I can get! The SlimWay Grapefruit Essential Oil Blend by Phytopia is made with Organic carrier oils like Olive, Sunflower, Evening Primrose and Jojoba and blended with Essential Oils like Juniperberry, Grapefruit, Sweet Fennel, Green Lemon, Rosemary, Cypress, Michelia Alba and Geranium China. I really enjoy the smell of this blend. It actually smells a little like black licorice to me, which I really like. I apply several times throughout the day and I massage the oil onto the back of my neck and onto my wrists and even a little under my nose. I notice that it also has a bit of a calming yet invigorating effect as well that I like. Overall, I really like the way it smells and the way it makes me feel. In the end, if it helps me loose some weight then that's an added bonus!

100% Organic Blend of Olive, Lavender, Almond & GrapeSeed Oil for Face, Skin, Hair & Nails, With Vitamin E, Cold Pressed Unrefined, 4 OZ

I have definitely noticed a difference in how I need to moisturize versus my 30's. My skin seems to get dry so much faster. There is no way I can skip a night with my moisturizer. This simple oil crafted from naturally grown olives is rich in vitamins that support my skin.The Ancient Greek Remedy Oil makes it easy though...even on the nights I am exhausted I can blend a few drops into my skin and off to bed and my skin still looks refreshed in the morning when I get up. I like that this Ancient Greek Remedy 100% Pure Oil is made from organically grown ripe olives and contains no preservatives, solvents or chemical additives. It is not greasy and it can even be used on hair and nails too. My nails get very dry in the winter so I try to moisturize my cuticles daily. This feels great on my hands and it smells divine. I noticed immediately how it improved my complexion and parched skin. I love that it is 100% vegan, natural and organic. I love the scent of this oil. It is so relaxing, I actually enjoy taking a minute to massage it into my skin. I adore the light scent of lavender it actually helps me relax. It has simple ingredients that work gently but effectively.

Midori Spring (ECO) Organic Japanese Matcha - Culinary Grade Green Tea Powder for Cooking and Baking - Kosher, Vegan Certified (100g)

This tea powder is potent and with so many applications the possibilities are endless. I decided to get this to drink it but when I saw the suggestions on the package I was simply amazed. I want to make homemade green tea mochi and french macaroons. Out of the bag it tastes good. It's really good quality since it's made with Tencha and not Sencha leaves. If you don't know the difference Tencha is the only thing that qualifies as true Matcha in japan. Sencha is usually marketed in the US as Matcha but it's not. The tea trees are coated in fabric to guard the leaves from light throughout the several week period before harvest. This method forces the plant to provide a lot of chlorophyll, will increase the assembly of amino acids and offers the leaves a really dark, wealthy shade of green. The leaves are then finely selected and arranged flat to dry (if they were rolled, they'd become Gyokuru tea). At this time, the leaves are de-veined, de-stemmed and finely ground into a powder that is then referred to as “tencha.” Sencha isn't treated as specially and therefor is lower quality tea.
