Hydro Boost Gel-Cream Extra-Dry Skin Review


 I had the great pleasure to try out this awesome extra dry skin gel-cream from Neutrogena'd Crowd on Crowdtap for free!

 

I had heard so many amazing things about Neutrogena's Hydro-Boost gel-cream before even being given the chance to try it for free.  I must say after using this gel-cream for a few weeks everything I heard was spot on!  My skin is smoother, brighter, and my super dry skin is nonexistent! My skin is always dry but during seasonal changes it acts up and starts peeling and flaking even worse than normal.  It is so embarrassing and i have had the worst time finding something that would combat it, till now!  I can't believe the difference.  I have replaced my expensive 80 +dollar skin cream and can't believe i paid that much for so long when this little beauty is a fraction of the price.  It works just as well if not better.  My fine lines have also been reduced which was great in addition to solving my dry skin problem!  I would highly recommend anyone suffering with very dry skin give this a try!

 



The cream is white with a smooth consistency and a slight scent from the Hyaluronic acid.  It goes on smooth like a cream and drys with no oily residue like a gel it's an amazing combination and very cooling on the skin.





If you would like to give it a try pick some up on Amazon HERE

Smart Weigh Stainless Steel Kitchen Scale Review- Worth it or Worthless?

 First off Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  I hope everyone had a fun and food filled day with family and friends!

 

This Smart Weigh scale is super easy to use and I figured what would be a better time than Thanksgiving to take it for a test drive!

 Step 1: Grab your trusty Smart Weigh scale and the plate of your choice.  Place plate on the scale and then turn it on.  Or you can tare it after you place the plate on the scale to zero it out. Tip: to check to see if your scale is measuring properly take a nickle and place it on your scale a nickle always weighs 5 gram.  So if your scale measure your nickle at 5 grams you know your scale is calibrated correctly.

 Step 2: Grab your food!  My choice tonight a Thanksgiving dessert classic pumpkin pie. If you look at the back of the package it will tell you the grams per serving this pumpkin pie is 111g per serving.  I measured out 78g because i didn't want a full serving.

 Step 3: Tare your scale to zero it out so you can measure your awesome toppings next! 

 Step 4: Grab some whipped cream(YUM) The serving size on the whipped cream is 5 grams and of course I got that right on the dot :D


Step 5: Grab your cup! Tare the scale to zero it out.  The great part about this scale is all the measurement choices. So now you're going to use the unit button and switch to fl. oz. for your drink of choice.


 

 Step 6: Pour your drink, one of my Thanksgiving favorites is Sparkling Apple cider (YUM again) The serving size on this drink is 8 fl. oz. which is standard for most drinks.  As you can see i went over a smidgen but I said what the heck it's Thanksgiving and I'll live dangerously ;D


Step 7: Chow Down and enjoy your yummy dessert !  

 

 

This scale has taken the guess work out of measuring food for me.  I watch my calorie intake very closely to maintain my weigh, so any product that make that easier gets an A+ in my book. This scale is sleek and easy to use.  It looks beautiful sitting on my granite counter top too.  I love that it can go from measuring grams to ounces to fluid ounces to milliliters.  It's so versatile and works for so many kitchen food projects! With all my holiday baking coming up this is going to come in super handy.  Maybe I'll even make it through the holidays without gaining any weight haha a girl can dream. 

 

WORTH IT OR WORTHLESS?

TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!

Happy Holidays Everyone!
