Age Defying Products: TruSkin Eye Gel and Vitamin C Daily Facial Moisturizer

Best Eye Gel for Wrinkles, Fine Lines, Dark Circles, Puffiness and Bags, 75%
By Dahlia Acevedo

Meet TruSkin's wonderful under eye gel with Vitamin D and Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic Acid helps to retain moisture (something we lose over time), and works as a plumping agent (fills in wrinkles and tightens the skin, making them less noticeable, helping you to look younger!). This eye gel contains plant stem cells, a peptide complex and vitamin E. And, it starts working immediately!

Lets cover benefits: Before purchasing this product I read reviews of persons claiming it does an amazing job clearing up under eye circles. Which is something admittedly I've always had, due to genetics and allergy issues. After using the product for a couple of months now, I can honestly say I haven't seen much of a difference. HOWEVER, this is a great product I stand behind.

It appears to be pricey at fifteen dollars a bottle, since it only contains 0.5 oz. However, it lasts for a long time, and I apply it semi-generously. You can even apply it to the upper eye lid, another area we tend to get swelling. It works! to tighten the area and not cause irritation.

ATTENTION: The first couple days I did experience some mild irritation, due to getting the product in my eye. Just be careful not to apply it too close to the eyeball and you should be fine. I advise that you wipe the excess gel off the surface of under eye wrinkles (wipe gently). Too much moisture is a bad thing and will make the skin sag, accentuating the wrinkles. Yes, I have experienced this.

 BENEFITS:

Awakens the eyes and helps you feel more awake. Starts to decrease puffiness and firm the skin around the eye right away. In about ten minutes time you will notice a big difference. I usually have to apply a second layer of the product over smaller bags directly under the eye. This helps to diminish them completely. I still have the slight under eye circles, but look well rested (despite maybe not sleeping well),

The end result: Brighter, tighter, younger looking skin with diminished looking wrinkles.

2oz Truskin Vitamin C Moisturizer Cream for Face Neck & Décolleté for Anti-Aging

Reintroducing TruSkin Vitamin C Daily Facial Moisturizer. Good News! I have been using this product now for months and it has transformed my skin. I stopped using my other age defying (yeah right!) lotion. I only apply TruSkin vitamin C Daily Facial Moisturizer to my skin now. No need to use sparingly, it's not going to irritate your skin. I have sensitive skin and haven't experienced any discomfort, burning, redness, etc. I had purchased TruSkin's Retinol lotion, but it only worked to a certain degree and is very heavy. It did however, diminish the rough patch (weathered looking skin), I had on my forehead and some age spots. As well as diminished the appearance of my crows feet. I ultimately decided it was too expensive and doesn't work well enough.

This Vitamin C lotion firms the skin, diminishes the appearance of wrinkles and age spots, and gives you a nice hydrated, healthy glow. YOU WILL LOOK YOUNGER!! Now when looking at myself in the mirror, when I first wake up to use the bathroom, I see a younger looking woman. This is before applying lotion or makeup. It's great! What's lovely is you may be able to stop using foundation, powder, highlighter, whatever! Stop hiding underneath these products, you don't need them! Especially with the hot weather, and makeup melting off the skin. Maybe invest in a good waterproof eye liner and mascara. Use a primer on the upper lids of the eyes and apply eye shadow afterwards, to experience all day staying power. Apply some light bronzer or blush on the cheeks and some lipstick / gloss, and enjoy. I don't care how many age defying makeup products exist out there. Makeup ages the skin and causes irritation / breakouts. I say skip it!

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...

Jennifer Bradley, 4 in One Camera Ready Foundation

By Dahlia Acevedo I have started to like makeup for the first time in my life. In my twenties and thirties all I wore was eye shadow, mascara and lipstick. My skin was firm and soft looking. Once I turned forty I started to lose some of my natural coloring and looked older. I started to wear eyeliner and blush. Fast forward a few years, I noticed red patches or small bouts of acne have started to appear. And lately, as I approach  46, I have noticed more sun spots have appeared. Nothing I purchased worked to cover it all up. Foundations felt heavy, smelled funky, dried out my skin, caused me to break out, and made me look older! I was desperate for a good product. I kept seeing a video of Jennifer Bradley applying the 4 in 1 to her face after a chemical peal, as well as before and after photos of women who have experienced great results after using the product. I caved and purchased the foundation, even though I wouldn't normally spend so much on makeup. It turns out it was...

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...
