100% Pure & Natural Essential Oil - Lemon Oil - by Pure BodyNaturals

I was very excited when I was given the opportunity to receive a bottle of lemon essential oil for reviewing processes. I've always been interested in essential oils and have used a few in my past.

Most bottles of essential oils I have seen or purchased have been 15 ML, so when I received a 120ML bottle I was very surprised. I really liked that the bottle came with a a basic top as well as a dropper top. The bottle itself is a darker bottle, which is perfect for storing oils long term storage. I like the fact that the company labels their product as not tested on animals and being cruelty free, You'll also find a warning to dilute the oil. The oil itself  has a very pleasant smell, I've been using it for my humidifier in the the defusing tray. It really helps with my stinky boyfriends smokers stench. I love adding a drop to my morning water bottles. The best part is, I keep finding more and more ways to use this amazing product

I received a complimentary product for my honest review. All opinions my own

Some uses for Lemon Essential Oil I have found

  • Use 1–2 drops of lemon essential oil to remove gum, oil, grease spots, glue or adhesive, and crayon from most surfaces.
  • Combine 2–3 drops of lemon essential oil with water in a spray bottle to help cleanse and sanitize surfaces.
  • Place a drop of lemon essential oil on oily skin or blemishes to help balance oil glands and minimize oil production.
  • Soothe corns, calluses, or bunions by rubbing lemon essential oil on the affected area morning and evening.
  • Massage lemon essential oil into cellulite to help improve circulation and eliminate waste from cells.
  • Add lemon essential oil to your morning tea or breakfast shake for a refreshing pick-me-up.
  • Inhale lemon essential oil or place a few drops on a cotton ball to replenish your mind, body, and spirit.
  • Add 10–15 drops of lemon essential oil to a gallon of carpet cleaning solution to help pull out stains, brighten carpet and rugs, and leave a fresh smell in the room.
  • Add several drops of lemon essential oil to a chicken marinade for a delicious dinner.
  • Place a few drops of your favorite citrus essential oil on a cotton ball and put in the refrigerator to help eliminate odors.
  • Skin care: Lemon oil is a good remedy for increasing the luster of dull skin. It is astringent and detoxifying in nature, and rejuvenates sagging or tired-looking skin. Its antiseptic properties help in treating pimples and various skin disorders. Lemon is also recommended for reducing excessive oil on the skin.
  • Stress: Lemon oil is calming in nature and therefore helps in removing mental fatigue, exhaustion, dizziness, anxiety, nervousness and nervous tension. It has the ability to refresh the mind by creating a positive mindset and removing negative emotions. It is also believed that inhaling lemon oil helps in increasing concentration and alertness. It can therefore be used as a room freshener in offices to increase the efficiency of the employees.
  • Immune system: Lemon oil has a high vitamin content, which makes it a wonderful booster for the body’s immune system. It further stimulates white blood cells, thus increasing your ability to fight off diseases. Lemon oil also improves circulation throughout the body.
  • Asthma: It is believed that lemons are also useful for treating asthma, since inhaling the aroma of lemons can clear the nasal passages and sinuses, promoting good air flow and steady breathing.
  • Insomnia: Health benefits of lemon oil include providing relief from sleeplessness. Using lemon oil ensures good sleep and helps people that suffer from insomnia.
  • Stomach ailments: Since lemon oil is carminative, it is used in the treatment of various stomach problems, including indigestion, acidity, upset stomach, and cramps.
  • air care: Lemon oil is also effective as a hair tonic. Many people use lemon oil to get strong, healthy and shiny hair. Lemon oil is also used to eliminate dandruff.
  • Weight loss: Lemon juice is very helpful in reducing weight, and satisfying appetite to reduce the chance of overeating.
  • Fever: Lemon oil is effective against infectious diseases such as fever, malaria and typhoid.
Other benefits of lemon I have come across include the following:
  • Cleaners: Lemon is a good cleaner, which is why it is used for cleansing the body, metal surfaces, dishes, and clothes. It is also a disinfectant, so it is commonly used for cleaning surfaces such as butcher’s knives and blocks that can get contaminated very easily.
  • Perfumes: Lemon oil has a distinctly refreshing aroma which makes it a good ingredient for perfumes. Many scented candles contain lemon oil, and it is also used in potpourris.
  • Soaps and cosmetics: Lemon juice and lemon essential oil are both used in soaps, face washes and many other personal care and skin care cosmetics due to its antiseptic quality.
  • Beverages: Lemon oil is used in various artificial drink concentrates to give them the taste of lemon juice.
I do plan on doing a comparison between this oil and Young Living oil. I was introduced to Young Living shortly after my accident last march and hope to become more familiar with their products. if you have any suggestions on how to compare the 2 products to each other please let me know

Insta Naturals Youth Express Eye Serum Review


I was given the oppertunity to review another product from Insta Naturals recently. I am always excited to try eye creams and serums. While I've never really had a big problem with my eyes, I have noticed that I do have a problem with under eye circles and puffiness (damn you 30's!!!)

I really like the feel and smell of this serum. It has a great texture and absorbs into the skin very easily without any sticky residue. While there is a bit of fragrance, I found it to be fairly clean and I was very comfortable using it around my eyes. I have definitely noticed a change with my under eye circles over the time I have used it. I am fairly confident that prolonged usage will give me even better results.

The one thing that I found very odd about this product is that its has a weird peachy orange color. I understand that the orange helps combat the blue tones in under eye circles. Its not very noticeable but because of the lighting at my salon I decided to refrain from using it in the morning before going to work. If you are good about wearing makeup daily then I wouldn't worry about it at all. Unfortunately for me, I tend to be lazy in the morning and rarely wear foundation.

Other then that I would definitely suggest this product to anyone looking for a good eye serum.


You can get yours here or on Amazon

Azure Naturals Cucumber Infused ULTIMATE PEPTIDE Eye Brightening Gel Review

I was given an oppertunity to try and review Ultimate Peptide Eye Brightening Gel by Azure Naturals free of charge for review purposes.

I've noticed that I'm starting to have more of an issue with under eye circles and puffiness, so when I got the oppertunity to try this product from Azure Naturals I couldn't let it pas me by. I really enjoyed the slight cucumber scent. I did notice that it was a little sticky, but that goes away as it soaks in. It wasn't an overpowering scent, but just a hint. I've even used it on a client with sensitive eyes and they absolutely loved it. I also liked the cooling feeling it gives you when you first apply it. I'm not sure if it makes a big difference or not, but it certainly feels like it does. I used this for a few weeks and noticed a huge different. It feels amazing in the morning, and makes a great pick me up on a busy salon afternoon. I also got busy and forgot to use it the past week or so and have also noticed a huge difference in reverse. I would definitely suggest this product to someone looking for a cucumber eye treatment






You can get this product on amazon here if your interested in trying it as well

Kiss Me organic ceremonial matcha

I was given the opportunity to try a organic ceremonial green tea match for reviewing purposes. I give an honest review based on my personal experiences with the product.


You can purchase this Matcha here

Kiss Me Organics claims that their matcha has many benefits including;

  • IMPROVED SKIN HEALTH ​ Scientists have discovered that Matcha Green Tea helps protect the skin from harmful UVrays, while improving blood flow and oxygen levels lifting the overall quality of the skin.
  • UP TO 137x THE ANTIOXIDANTS OF BREWED GREEN TEA Antioxidants are essential as you age to boost your body’s natural defenses against oxidation. Researchers have found that a high level of dietary antioxidants can prevent many age-related diseases.




I have to say, My favorite way to enjoy matcha is as a latte, but the recipe guide Kiss me organics sent has given me a few other recipes that I look forward to trying
The matcha powder is fine and a bright green color, just like it is supposed to be. the taste is amazing
The packaging as a whole I found really unique, it was like a little coffee bag.
I felt a little like i was opening up russian nesting dolls, but it was very clear that the freshness of this product is preserved.
I really enjoyed the Ceremonial grade matcha from Kiss me organics, it is definetly sweeter, fresher, and a finer mill then most of the other matcha's i have found in the US. The light and fluffy texture of the powder is exactly what I have been looking for. I would highly recoment Kiss me Organics to anyone looking for a good matcha
