Numi Organic Tea (a life saver)

Well happy Monday my friends. I unfortunately caught a bug going around and my throat feels pretty much like a thousand little bees have stung me a few times. I love rooibos chai tea and Numi has made the best tasting one, in my opinion. I love the earthy vanilla tones. It isnt bitter or dark for those of you who aren't into drinking tea too much. The spices which are: cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon, mingling them with sweet Indian allspice and vivacious Chinese ginger all taste like a little bit of heaven and soothe my throat. I usually add a splash of milk with my tea but because of my throat feeling under the weather, I've refrained. What also is an added bonus is that this is a caffeine-free alternative to other drinks. I would definitely suggest this to someone who isnt a avid tea drinker, and also to those who drink tea non-stop. I feel like a million dollars while sipping on this delight. To make you would boil water and pour over a bag of Rooibos Chai. Steep for 5-6 minutes. You can also make iced tea with this as well. To make iced tea, steep 2 tea bags, cool and then poor over ice.

My Michael Todd Organic Dry Skin Regimen

I thought I'd start my blog off with this entry only because out of all my skin care products, this entire line is 'da bomb'! First let me start off with saying I am a 41 year old 1/2 puerto rican and 1/2 norweigan woman. I live in Northern Virginia. I have all the symptoms of an aging woman on my head. These signs include 1. Sun spots, frown lines, wrinkles on my forehead and smile lines. Along with all of that, even though I have overly dry skin, I also have sparatic hormonal acne,which sometimes leads to scarring which sometimes stays on my face for long periods of time. So, with all that out of the way, I have choose to blog on my skin regimen because I have searched high and low for products that do not worsen my conditions or give me new ones. I have tried thousands of products some that may work alone for one specific thing but not with others to help me with all my issues. I've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on products and nothing comes close to this entire regimen. This line has definitely done what it said it would do: •Diminish fine lines and wrinkles •Reduce age spots and hyperpigmentation •Improve skin tone and increase smoothness •Stimulate skin cell renewal, improve circulation and help rebuild collagen for improved elasticity •Improve the skin's ability to hold moisture •Increase skin resistance to external stressors The Dry Skin Regimen provides a five step routine for caring for your dry skin comprised of the following: Step 1 - Prepare: Cleanse and Tone •SKIN DEFENDER AHA crème facial cleanser eases away the appearance of fine lines, blotches and discoloration.
