Jewelmint necklace dupe

I love Jewelmint but I refuse to pay $29.99 for one piece of jewelry. When they had a geometric necklace I loved so much I was willing to purchase it...but it became sold out after a matter of days (I was sad). I thought that was the end for me and the necklace because I knew most of Jewelmint’s items never return. I was shopping in Madrag (10 spot also carries Madrag jewelry) the other day and I found a dupe for the geometric necklace...and it was on sale for $5. Don't they look so similar!?

Rose hip seed oil skin benefits

Rose Hip seed oil skin benefits, Rose Hip Seed Oil hair benefits
I have been going crazy for natural products that can help my skin because I have been breaking out so much lately (can’t blame anyone but myself…I’ve been eating stuff I know breaks me out). I discovered Rose Hip Seed Oil! It’s a plant that grows in South America and it is supposed to be muy bueno for your skin. Here are some of the benefits of Rose Hip Seed Oil for the skin.


1. It's high in vitamin C antioxidants so it helps stimulate collagen production
2. It helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles by increasing moisture levels 
3. It helps to reverse sun damage and photo aging
4. It contains fatty acids that can reduce scarring and promote skin regeneration      
5. Contains vitamin A which can improve the skins texture and tone


If I were you I would go out and get some right now!! It only cost me a little over $6, and you can find it at any health food store, fairway, and online.

Turmeric facial mask



Turmeric Skin Benefits

Turmeric is high in antioxidants that slow down cell damage.

It’s widely used as a skin exfoliant and improves skin’s texture.

It helps with inflammatory skin conditions, such as acne, dry skin, psoriasis and eczema.

It helps reduce pigmentation and even out the skin tone.

It is also said to diminish wrinkles


Make your own turmeric face mask

1. Mix flour, turmeric, honey and milk to make a paste

Two tablespoons of flour. You can use regular flour, rice flour or ground oats if your
skin is dry.

One teaspoon turmeric

Three tablespoons of milk. You can also use yogurt to fight acne.
A few drops of honey

2. Apply a thin layer to your face and let it dry for 15 minutes

3. Rinse off with warm water...scrubbing gently to remove (I suggest wearing gloves so you do not stain your hands and finger nails).

4. Apply your usual facial moisturizer 

P.S Make sure you have some type of oil handy (like almond, or coconut)so if your face gets a little stained you can put the oil on your face and wipe with a wet towel to removed the excess turmeric.

Best soap ever

I am into all natural everything from what I eat to what I put on my body. I love the brand “One with Nature” and their Dead Sea mineral soaps. They have about ten different fragrances/types that are all great and smell amazing. Every time I get a new soap I try a different one...this time I picked up lemon sage (It smells amazing). I purchased this brand from Fairway for $3.69 a bar….trust me it’s so worth it ...and  it leaves your skin feeling clean, nourished, soft, and smelling great!

Raw vegan for a week

vegan, healthy eating, working out, gym, weight lose, dream body, summer body
I’m on the quest to get healthier and lose about 20 pounds before summer is here. In February I was eating horribly…I mean pizza, Chinese food, and crap like that. I can’t believe I gained almost 10 pounds in one month! 

The part that sucks the most is that my body is very sensitive to any junk food (I was meant to eat healthy) that it makes me break out. I’m suffering for my eating habits now with the break outs on my face but it’s beginning to clear up slowly. For the last month I cut out juice completely, nothing but water and green tea. 

I finally went back to the gym after not going for several months, but I’m now going on a regular basis. This week two friends and I are eating like raw vegans in order to cleanse our bodies of toxins and to lose weight. I already lost 2 pounds in 3 days and I’m happy about that, so I might keep it up after the week is over. 

I want to cut out most dairy completely because it makes me break out anyway. I also want to add more fruits and veggies with some organic meats into my diet. In the last month I have lost 7 pounds all together, so I am on my way to my dream body! I’ll keep you guys updated on my progress!
