Product Reviews 11/21

All of what I express is my own unbiased opinion. I did receive this products at a discounted price but everything I say is my own and was not influenced in any which way.

NYB Arabic Scrub

let's Chat about this #coffeescrub! okay I love love love coffee so being able to rub it on my body is a win win! there is no harsh aroma with this scrub I mean it just smells like glorious #coffee. I've used scrubs before that have used Mits or stick applicators but honestly I just use my bare hands to rub it on my problem areas. My skin does feel smoother but I'm not seeing a decrease in my #stretchmarks yet.

 SwissVita Eye Serum
http://www.amztk.com/eye-cream-for-wrinkles

I'm a mom to two adorable children....who hate sleep. With that being said the bags under my eyes should have their own zip code. I've been using this under eye Serum twice a day for a few days and I look like a new person! I don't need as much concealer and it looks like I have actually slept more than a few hours in the past week! This #micrite3d is a life saver! The only issue I have with it is that after I use it, under my eyes feels a bit sticky. But I can honestly look past that since it works!

SelpHbalance Mosquito bands
http://amzn.to/2etGtqO

I hate mosquitos they drive me crazy! I love being outside in the summer but I feel like these bugs prevent me from enjoying that. this #mosquit looks to be a product I have needed in my life. I love that the package is #resealable to keep all the good in. Also it comes with 12 different bands! one color per family member. I Love that wearing this I don't have to worry about spraying myself or my children with those nasty sprays! This saves the Hassel and keeps everyone protected. the smell is not overwhelming like that of #bugspray. Once you take the band off your skin doesn't smell like it either. Which in my opinion is great!

HealthyWiser Water test strips

I Think it is extremely important to know what is in your water! These test strips from HealthyWiser show just that! It's so easy to use. Once you open the cap there are four vacuum sealed bags filled with tests. You then take a strip and put it horizontally in your drinking, pool, spa, shower,fish water for 30 seconds. After you take it out, DO NOT SHAKE, and then compare your test strip to the legend on the side of the bottle. So easy! Some of the things you can test for are nitrates, water hardness, alkaline.

I Cant Do this Alone..

Being a mom is hard! For the past week I cant even tell you how many times I found myself sitting in the hallway of the kids room crying listening to them cry as they both didn't want to nap. Yesterday I reached my breaking point. Saul hasn't been sleeping at all no naps no sleeping during the night it is exhausting! and on top of that Hannah has hit the terrible threes. She skipped over the terrible twos but this terrible three holy smokes its rough! Yesterday Hannah got sent to her room for getting in trouble and  I of course attempted to put Saul down for a nap. Both kids simultaneously screaming and crying and me sitting in the hallway silently crying along with them. I sat there with tears streaming down my face and I just prayed. I prayed to God to help me, give me the strength to get through this because I cant do this alone. Ive tried but I have failed. I have failed over and over again because I simply was trying to do things alone. I don't know why sometimes I think I am stronger than I am. Why I think I am wonder woman who can take care of everything without God. Now I am not saying I have run from my faith that is simply not true. But in the times of trials I forget to turn to Him, because during these rough times He truly is the only one who can give me rest. Not the close your eyes and go to sleep rest (even though I do need that) but, the rest that my heart and my mind need. This season is a rough one, Im trying to be a good wife to my husband, housewife to my house, and mother to my children. Without the help from God I will be drained easily and burned out and not enjoying this season as much as I could be. Honestly, the only thing I can think of is Satan knows I am weak right now. There is a lot going on in my life that I haven't shared yet on this blog, so he is attacking me. It doesn't help that I have PPD so there are days where I feel like a crappy human being anyway.  He knows my weakness just like God does but Satan being who he is attacks that and makes things so much worse! I need to pray and strengthen my faith even more during these times. I have learned the hard way that I cant do this alone and I plan on keeping that in the front of my mind because its a truth that I need to be reminded of daily. God doesn't give me more than I can handle, but sometimes I do feel pushed to my limits (aka surviving on no sleep) But I'm going to turn to Him and Ill get through it. So no matter what season of life you are in, remember your not in this alone!
