Wow Factor!!
By Dahlia Acevedo

 I was very pleasantly surprised how my skin looked immediately younger, brighter and tighter when I put this lotion on my face. THAT IS OF COURSE, in combination with my other go to anti-aging lotion, Ponds Rejuveness (anti-wrinkle cream). I had tried two other vitamin C lotions in the recent past:, the last being "Jason  C Effects" (nice firming lotion but too strong of a smell).  After three weeks of use I didn't notice too much of a difference in my skin's condition. However, it did absorb nicely into the skin, but was a little too thick for my liking. Other reasons to use Tru Skin vitamin C lotion: Your skin stays smooth looking all day, no unpleasant smell and inexpensive price, $15.00 for 2oz. I had found a dollar off coupon purchasing through Amazon. 

 I highly recommend you use a product specifically made to target under eye bags first, and then apply the vitamin C lotion once it dries. Elf Illuminating Eye Cream and under eye roller are excellent products. I have also found that my vitamin A Retinyl Palmitate gel (wrinkle treatment gel with vitamin E), works wonders in immediately deflating bags and firming the area. 

 If you have not read any of the research on the benefits of using a vitamin C lotion on your face, preferably one containing Vitamin B, then allow me to inform you. Vitamin C plus B lotion helps to even out skin tone, give your skin a fabulous glow, smooth the skin, eliminate blemishes and acne scars, tighten sagging skin, diminish the look of wrinkles, lessen the appearance of sun spots, and help makeup to go on smoother. 

 I have yet to find a good vitamin C lotion for my aging looking  hands. But when I do I will definitely share out. Jason C Effects works well on the hands. I noticed mine looked younger. HOWEVER, it is more expensive and you have to use too much of it to get the desired affect.

    Thanks for the info on TruSkun product. Is this available at my local drugstore or only on-line? I didn’t know about the effects of lotion with Vitamin C & B. I found your blog illuminating. I will have to check out TruSkun moisturizer the next chance I get :)

    As far as I can tell Truskin vitamin C lotion is only sold online. The cheapest sellers being Amazon and Ebay. I wish someone would have shared the benefits of vitamin C lotion with me, even two years ago, when the skin on my face started sagging. Better late than never right ��. I dont believe in plastic surgery sooo..

    Thank you so much for dropping by!

      I actually love the TruSkin vitamin C lotion. I began ALSO using it at night, mixed with my other Ponds lotion, and have seen some good improvement. It's been about two weeks in and the skin directly under my chin is a lot firmer. I can almost see one clear jaw line all the way across, instead of that sagging area towards the front. I am actually looking to try a retinal based lotion at night. I will purchase one soon. I don't like the lines in my forehead.

Ocean Trails Reserve - Rancho Palos Verdes (Ocean views galore)

Ocean Trails Reserve - Palos Verdes                 By: Dahlia Acevedo Where has this Ocean trail been all my life?! I viewed several posts about the place, as well as photographs, which did not do this place justice at all! We are talking 360 beautiful views of the golf course (which runs parallel to the trail at first), gorgeous homes in the distance, the mountains, as well as constant ocean views. Let me just take a moment to comment on the color of the ocean (really colors), A deep blue with turquoise pools, crystal clear in spots, exposing the algae below (coastline). There are four paths, two that lead down to the beach area, which is completely covered in small, grayish white rocks. Making it totally unique and picturesque. I've never seen anything like it. I've  posted a picture of the awesome looking zig zag trail leading down to the beach. Once you descend, you will see the bottom half of the cliffs are covered in rolling green, gra...

Juan Bautista De Anza Trail - Lake Balboa

Juan Bautista De Anza Trail Lake Balboa I feel lucky to have so many walking and biking trails within walking distance of where I live. I usually cycle past the Juan Bautista trail head, reminding myself to walk it soon, as it is so lovely. Even though it isn't quite so warm yet, I highly recommend walking / running the flat, dirt trail early in the morning or later in the evening. I started my trek at about 9 am, and it was already pretty warm. The trail, (located off of Balboa Ave., between Victory Blvd. and Burbank Blvd), runs alongside the very green and beautifully manicured Woodley Lakes Golf Course the entire duration. Keep an eye out for a gaggle of geese or two, that have made the golf course their favorite hang out. Or mated pairs of herons tending to their rather noisy chicks up in the trees. I was lucky to spot them flying around each other yesterday. Their babies sound similar to the wild parrots nesting in the trees along my street. Yes, I said parrots. Some believe t...

Intermittent Fasting, and My Personal Experience

By Dahlia Acevedo My mother was actually the first person to enlighten me about intermittent fasting. I remember her being really excited about the prospect of not being on an actual diet, and having to constantly think about what you put in your mouth. She explained that participants in a recent study continuously lost weight every week without changing anything about their daily routine (this includes what they ate and how often they ate). They simply stuck to a 12 hour on / 12 hour off fasting period. For example, if they had their first meal or snack at 9am, and their last meal or snack at 9pm. They would then refrain from ingesting anything but water, from 9pm until 9am. This means, no liquids (milk, juice, soda), no alcohol, and no sugar. And let me tell you, this is doable! The last time I saw my mother (a few weeks back), she told me she has lost seven pounds fasting twelve hours a day. I was so excited for her! Now, to be fair, I  asked if she has been eating any dif...
