Lux Beauty Club: Beauty and Wellness Products

Lux Beauty Club: Beauty and Wellness Products

Lux Beauty Club is a Hispanic-owned and female-founded brand that offers a variety of women’s health and wellness products. They also offer a variety of CBD products which is something I take regularly for my chronic conditions.

I had the chance to check out their Plump It Up Collagen & Biotin Gummies as well as a few sample packs of their Love Omega Heart Health Gummies and Sweet Dreams Melatonin and B6 Gummies.

Plump It Up is designed to promote skin elasticity, strengthen hair and nails, and improve the appearance of skin. I didn’t know that most women start losing 1% of collagen production per year starting in their late 30s. That number jumps to up to 30% once they hit menopause. By taking Plump It Up, you are helping replace that lost collagen which helps with connective tissue, muscle mass, and even metabolism.

You can purchase a 60-count bottle for $30 or subscribe to receive 20% off.

Love Omega is designed to elevate your mood, possibly reduce inflammation, promote brain and heart health, and more. Every cell in your body needs omega-3s and they are important for muscle activity, immune function, digestion, and even fertility. Love Omega not only contains Omega 3 but also EPA and DHA which is great for people who don’t consume fish.

You can purchase a 60-count bottle for $30 or subscribe to receive 20% off.

Sweet Dreams is designed to help you fall asleep and stay asleep without feeling groggy. It also contains B6 which helps elevate mood which is something I’ve found helps me.

You can purchase a 60-count bottle for $30 or subscribe to receive 20% off.

Overall, I really enjoyed trying these products. I personally found Sweet Dreams the most beneficial because I struggle with quality sleep. I feel that their products are high quality and decently priced.

L.A. Girl Shockwave Eyeliners | Review

Trying to find a new eyeliner that stays put? Check out the L.A. Girl Shockwave eyeliners.

I have always had a love affair with cosmetics. When I was young my grandma would sit down every day and put her makeup on, and I always sat and watched in awe. It didn’t matter if she wasn’t going anywhere that day- she wasn’t ready to conquer the day until her face was on. I live my life by the same philosophy. I don’t wear makeup for anyone other than myself, and it gives me the confidence to slay the day away. 

The problem for me is finding products that actually stay put all day! It’s harder than you would think, especially eye products for me. I tend to have oily eyelids, so even long-wear products tend to not really be long-wear for me. Eyeliners are especially difficult for me to find.

Recently I was able to try out L.A. Girl Shockwave Liners, and I had very little hope that these would stay put through me slaying the day away because of previous experiences with other brands’ metallic formulas. I shouldn’t have been so pessimistic. This eyeliner is simply the best metallic liner I have ever tried, and once it is set- it stays all day until you wash it off. It doesn’t smear all over my eyes even after 8 hours of wear. I also really loved the pigment and ease of application on these eyeliners. They go on so smoothly and really add a pop of color wherever you put them.

The Natural Dentist Review

Today’s topic might be sensitive for some.  At least, that’s the way it is for me.  Gingivitis, IE bleeding gums.  It is not a fun subject, but it is a necessary topic to talk about that a lot of people have to deal with, including myself.

What is gingivitis?

Gingivitis is a common and mild form of gum disease (periodontal disease) that causes irritation, redness and swelling (inflammation) of your gingiva, the part of your gum around the base of your teeth. It’s important to take gingivitis seriously and treat it promptly. Gingivitis can lead to much more serious gum disease called periodontitis and tooth loss.

I have tried many, many different products that claim to help with gingivitis with no avail.  The only thing that seemed to help with prescription strength toothpaste that was super expensive and you can only get at the dentist.

Enter The Natural Dentist.

The Natural Dentist was kind enough to send me their Peppermint Twist Antigingivitis/Antiplaque Rinse, Peppermint Twist Antigingivitis/Antiplaque Toothpaste with Fluoride and their Peppermint Twist Antigingivitis/Antiplaque Toothpaste without fluoride for me to try.

All of these products are so amazing.  They have aloe vera in them and they make brushing a more pleasurable experience rather then it feeling like I am brushing with sand paper.  They have aloe vera in them, which is a natural antibacterial and helps minimalise inflammation.

As far as if they actually work?  Absolutely.  They are working for me.  I am visibly noticing a lot less pink when I brush my teeth, as well as a lot less sensitivity when I am eating and drinking as well as the pleasant taste lingering in my mouth, but not ruining whatever I eat with an overpowering peppermint taste in my mouth like I have had happen in the past with peppermint toothpastes.

Chocolate Girl Cosmetics Review

Chocolate Girl was founded by Shelley Meche’tte and her daughters. They are dedicated to going above and beyond the typical beauty services to ensure all of their customers are satisfied and their line of lip glosses have been created to provide suitable lip colors for melanin women who are often failed by the beauty industry even in 2021.

I have refused to support and purchase multiple large cosmetics brands due to their treatment of women of color and I always do extensive research on brands before purchasing from them so I knew Chocolate Girl was exactly the type of company I want to support.

Shelley was kind enough to send me a few of their glosses to check out.

I INSTANTLY fell in love with Purple Reign. This soft purple is STUNNING and I can never pass up a stunning bold color like that. The picture above does not do Champagne justice, it’s a stunning light pink color which is perfect for if you want to tone down a look. I tend to love bold but I will never pass up having something subtle and traditional in my collection. Clear Ice brings me INSTANTLY back to high school when I exclusively wore clear lip gloss only and it was a very nice trip down memory lane. It’s also perfect for when you want your lips to be moisturized with a clear finish.

I am very happy with Chocolate Girl, all of their glosses contain Vitamin E and Coconut Oil. I tend to have very dry lips living in New England so Vitamin E and Coconut Oil help keep my lips moisturized and looking their best. I truly am obsessed with their shade Purple Reign.

Their glosses range in price from $5-$6 which I think is a steal and be sure to follow them on Instagram to keep up to date on new releases.

Hot Head by Thermal Hair Care Review

My daughter and I have full heads of waist length hair that usually are some unnatural shade of the rainbow. Currently I am rocking a bright Ariel red number, and she, a head of blue black locks. With all of the bleaching and dying comes damage. Lots of damage. It’s not in our schedule or finances to go to the salon and have a conditioning treatment, so when we discovered that Thermal Hair Care offers a flax filled conditioning cap, called Hot Head, I got excited. Real excited.

These caps come in a wide variety of prints and colors, are handmade by seamstresses local to the company and are filled with natural flaxseed. I was worried that with the sheer amount of hair on each of our heads, it might not fit in a standard size cap, but amazingly it did!  Though there are three different size options: original, XL Hot Head and Little Hot Head. The caps are extremely soft and comfortable and not at all heavy like I had envisioned. The process is a snap and can fit into any busy schedule, not to mention the cap can be used time and time again, saving SO much money and trips to the salon. Read more

Healing Mama Co Unboxing & Review

About Healing Mama Co:
Preparing for the birth of our baby was an exhilarating and completely brand new experience. At 7 months pregnant my girlfriend made me what she called her “Mom Must Have Bag” because a girlfriend of hers made one for her. It was filled with items I had NEVER heard of before, like Witch Hazel or Padsicles + so much more. At that moment it occurred to me that in all my baby preparation I had not done any preparation for myself!

Needless to say, I spent the next month researching solely for me and what I’d be going through. I scoured the internet for “labor & postpartum kits” and was disappointed by the cost to quantity ratios and most of all that there wasn’t a single kit that included ALL the items, I now knew I’d need.

That homemade “Mom Must Have Bag” gift that was given to me has now grown into the Healing Mama Co. A safe and trusted place that ALL mama’s-to-be can come and find EXACTLY what she needs to not only get through this momentous experience of childbirth and postpartum but to THRIVE through it!
