Emmi's Essentials Aromatherapy Diffuser Review + Giveaway








Emmi's Essentials Aromatherapy Diffuser Review + Giveaway



I live a highly stressful life not only am I disabled but so is my husband and son. My son has Autsim and my husband has high anxiety where that he is always on edge. He does not hit or hurt but he will use words that hurt sometimes. He in now way would be able to take care of our son by himself. Every time you call him or my son calls him he acts upset like we are bothering him. It makes a very stressful life.

I use diffusers throughout my house. Mostly I use lavender or peppermint. Lavender to calm and De-stress everyone and Peppermint for my headaches. Diffusers work like magic... and the special power? Turning special magic turning essential oil into a great cloud of air. Ok, I am not a magic type of person and do not believe it really is magic but it really does work. I think god gave us plants for a reason. A lot of them help us and we do not even know it. I know by experience that herbs do work. I know I defiantly get soothed by lavender and peppermint works for sore muscles and headaches.

Anyway enough of that but down to this diffuser. It is a normal diffuser size and it is a nice one. It changes colors and it has a timer so you can set it for a the amount of time you need. It is easy to fill and use. Just take off the top and fill the water base to desired amount. Next pick your desired essential oil and pour a few drops into the water base. Then replace the lid and lock into place. Push the button for time or colors.

It is a very nice diffuser and am currently using it in my bathroom because that is my spa and relax room. I run lavender when I take a candle lit night shower. I tend to pamper myself once in a great while.

Kiva Organic Stevia Review and Giveaway!



http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/b00nkq2bnk


Stevia is an all natural sweetener. Stevia is made from a plant that is found in South America.  The plant is a green leafy plant.  They have taken two compounds out of the plant to make stevia.  They are much more sweeter than sugar.  It is a very powerful zero calorie sweetener. 

 It taste sweet but completely different compared to sugar.  Sugar is finally in the spotlight for how harmful it can be.  People in the United States still like things sweet.  I love stevia but did not like it at first.  So we look for other ways to sweeten our food and drink.  You can use it in baking, cooking, and drinks. It is in as nearly as many recipes as sugar. 

Kiva is a great grand of stevia that you can use to sweeten your food without hurting your body.  It is a soft powder form of stevia.

When I first tried Stevia a few years ago I thought it was horrible.  I kept using it and within no time I loved it.  Once my taste buds got used to the taste. Now that is has grown on me I really like the taste and use it quite a bit in my baking especially.

Grateful Body Review and Giveaway


I have tried many facial products.  My facial skin is beyond super oily.  No product helps my breakouts.  Facial acne and oily skin has plagued me my whole life.  I have tried I think almost every product made.  I tried Dr. Perricione, ProActive, and many more.  None has helped.  I get sooo frustrated.  Some dry my skin too much and I still breakout.  Now I am to the point of not believing in any product. I am frustrated and disappointed.

Grateful Body sent me the Oily skin line for facial care.  I got it and of course I wasn't expecting much.  Nothing works on my face!  I started the sink care and by a week later my skin had NO breakouts and now nearly a month into using the product and I still have not had one breakout.  I am stunned.  No kidding this stuff actually works on my skin.  I am so excited but the only problem is I am really low income so hopefully I can find a good deal on it.  This stuff is amazing.

Thank you for letting me try a free line of your products!  The oily skin product is just amazing for those who thought there is no relief for oily skin.  I am so happy about this product!  It is amazing and Guess what? I get to give a set away!
