Libre Tea Glass

 Libre sent me one of their Libre glass'npoly large for review. These are a fantastic way to make loose leaf tea. You can use the glass at home, work , on the go, camping. 

 I tested mine out with my favorite loose leaf tea. It was so easy to use and I was very happy with the results.  I was able to take my tea along with me when I left the house. No more  waiting for green tea to be ready before you can get on your way. 

 Simply add your hot water and loose green tea twist on the filter and lid. Wait a bit then you can remove the lid and sip right through the filter without having to worry about any tealeaves coming through.

 You can make all types of loose leaf tea with your Libre. I love this way to brew tea.

I love that Libre is super easy to clean too. Simply hand wash with soap and warm water. The filter rinses out well.
The Libre glass ’n poly has a health-conscious glass interior for fresh taste and a durable polycarbonate exterior for ‘on the go’ durability. The stainless steel tea filter is surrounded by BPA free polypropylene as is the lid interior. Can be used 2 ways to brew and travel with loose leaf tea.


Check out this video showing how easy it is to use Libre:

Made From Earth

 I love Organic Skin Care. I got to try out a collection of Made From Earth's best sellers. This is a fantastic company that is eco-friendly and environmentally conscious. Their line of organic skincare essentials contain the highest possible levels of certified organic ingredients and fruits.

 Let's Check out the products I got to try:


Green Tea Toxin Cleanser
Green Tea is a base antioxidant. Our healthy cleanser is enhanced with vitamins A, B, C and E. Since it contains no chemicals, the cleanser is hypoallergenic and non-irritating for people with sensitive skin. The Aloe Vera base in the cleanser combines with Green Tea to provide an antioxidant boost to remove free radicals restoring healthier skin. This product does not contain the typical surfactant or detergent ingredient that most cleansing gels contain; it is a chemical-free gentle cleanser.

Leave on face for three minutes. Feels slightly tingly as it helps remove toxins from your skin. Makes your face feel great. I inspected my  pores with a magnifying mirror afterwards and saw no clogged pores whatsoever.


Rosehip + Hibiscus Face Serum
This gentle Rosehip + Hibiscus Face Serum is recommended for sensitive skin. The serum is easily absorbed by the skin. Rose hips are a rich source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and Vitamin C. The serum's ingredients play a primary role in the regeneration process of skin cells and repair of damaged tissues.
Hibiscus extract, with its antioxidant properties, blends perfectly with the Rosehip Oil and provides natural astringent properties.

Smells wonderful. Applies easily and feels great on. Love that it removes the toxins that are always in the air around us like smoke, dust and pollution of all sorts.


Three Berry Daily Face Serum
The Vitamin C in this serum neutralizes environmental damage for healthy and smooth skin. This formula can be used under or over makeup. Raspberry adds a soothing, non-stimulating effect, while blueberry neutralizes free radical damage to the matrix of skin cells. Please see more information on this great blend below.
Note: This product may also be used as a daily face cream due to its deep moisturizing effect.

Smells like berries mixed with fresh aloe. This organic serum comes in a pump bottle that dispenses just the right amount.

Blueberry Lip Balm
Antioxidant rich blueberry lip balm for all berry lovers. Rich and healthy. Blueberry lip balm is designed to heal lips while providing a juicy blueberry flavor.
Glides on like a dream. Lovely Blueberry flavor.
Citrus Fresh tastes like a delicious mix of lemons, limes and fresh squeezed oranges. 

This organic and chemical free lip balm contains vitamin-rich sunflower seed oil and protecting beeswax to avoid a chapped lip texture to aid the production of collagen in the lips, with the sweet taste of oranges.

Smells like fresh lemons. Applies easily. tastes like tangerines. Stays on for a long time.

Corazonas







 Corazonas sent over some of their really flavorsome Oatmeal Squares for review. These delightful snacks are very tasty. The whole family likes em.

 What I really like about Corazonas is that all of their products are heart healthy and proven to help lower cholesterol. I love that in a snack. Especially snacks that taste this good.


Check out this great video that shows how Corazonas uses plant sterols to give you the freedom to snack sensibly: 






I got to try all of Corazonas varieties of Oatmeal Squares. 


 Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Squares  taste like a really terrific granola bar with mini chocolate chips. One of my favorites.


Chocolate + oats + nature’s secret cholesterol lowering power. It all  equals you, eating something fantastic. Try one of our delicious  Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Squares.

Cranberry Flax Oatmeal Squares taste like a chewy spice cake with cranberry bits. I like this one alot. Cranberries are sweet. 


This sweet, chewy, incredibly good snack is packed with cranberries,  which are tangy – not bitter. Bitter would be asking you to give up your  favorite foods to lower your cholesterol. We don’t do bitter.

  Banana Walnut Oatmeal Squares have an excellent banana flavor with bits of walnuts intertwined with that oatmeal square goodness.

 Freedom to Snack sensibly also comes in sweet, here it is. Our Banana  Walnut Oatmeal Squares are chewy and indulgent – like a big, soft,  cookie with corners.







Peanut Butter Oatmeal Squares are very tasty. The peanut butter in this bar is the crunchy kind. It really adds a great texture to the snack. Oats are not overly soft. The flavor is quite addictive.


Peanut butter – just one more thing you may have thought you could never  have again. We’re happy to prove you wrong. In fact, get this, the  natural, good fat in this bar actually helps our active ingredient do  its job. Here’s to getting the job done.






Chocolate Brownie and Almonds is my favorite. I know I have this thing with chocolate. This bar is a tasty chocolate brownie with almond bits. It makes my tongue happy. I love it when healthy tastes this good. Love it. Love it. Love it.

Okay, this can’t be accurately described as brownie-like or brownie-ish.  This is a brownie. Rich, over-the-top. Which might not match your  perception of a cholesterol-lowering snack. Guess you’ll have to get  used to not being disappointed.
Corazonas also sells:
both of which I would love to test out.
