I reviewed the Valentia True Glow Eye Cream not long ago and was very impressed by the company and its product. First let's start with the Clay Mask.
It has a very fragrant scent that I really enjoy. You can smell it before opening the 4 oz. jar. When applying it to my skin it was almost like a cooling affect, which I find really relaxing. I left it on for about 15 minutes or so until it was completely dry. Removing it was fairly easy with some warm water and rubbing it in a circular motion as it also exfoliates at the same time.
Here are the active ingredients:
- Kaolin Clay:Clay minerals draw impurities, improve skin tone, and tighten pores for smoother firmer skin.
- Plant Stem Cells:Naturally decreases the level of pro-aging toxins and works to sooth the skin, reduce redness, and improve evenness.
- Spirulina:A botanical stimulant full of vitamins that hydrates the skins surface and contributes to tissue regeneration of the skin.
- CoQ10:Lessens the appearance of wrinkles by reducing free radical damage and stimulating health collagen production.
- Hibiscus & Cranberry Fibers:Both lend their anti-aging properties to firm and reinforce the skin, helping to reduce the creation of new wrinkles.
All the ingredients work together to help draw out impurities and downsize your pores along with firm and strengthen your skin.
This product is for sale on Amazon for $24.99USD here.
Now let's move onto the Exfoliating Scrub.
This happens to be my personal favorite. It's smells like a natural menthol, minty that I noticed immediately wakened my scences. As noted in previous statements I have sensitive skin so I have to be careful on what I use. When applied in a circular motion it tingled a little bit but did not irritate my redness.Rinses off with ease with warm water. Some scrubs can make your skin feel even more dry, but with the key ingredients in this it has my skin feeling soft and clean with the first use. Here is a list of those ingredients:
- Green and White Tea:Packed with polyphenols and potent antioxidants that provide anti-inflammatory, anti-irritant, and anti-aging effects.
- Aloe Vera:This nutrient rich botanical moisturizes the skin and fights aging by improving skin firmness.
- Jojoba Beads:Gentle beads that work to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells without scratching the skin.
- Olive, Avocado & Kukui Butter:This
nutrient dense trio is rich in Vitamin A, B, D, and E helps nourish,
hydrate, and repair the skin while combating pro-aging free radicals.
These help rejuvenate and remove toxins and moisturize all at the same time. This scrub is available along with the Clay mask as a 2 in 1 set or individual for $24.99 here on Amazon.
Both of these products from Valentia are my new must have staples in my daily/weekly skin care regimen. I highly recommend that you indulge your skin with their products and experience the results for yourself.

Belly Fat Blow Out
The program starts with a 3 day detox to force the body to start changing, and then reintroducing 3 meals and 2 snacks a day.
You start out by taking measurements - which are then done weekly.
You are encouraged to allow ourselves a 90/10 attitude on food - so 10% of the time we can break the rules.
She teaches you general awareness of the food that you are eating - really for anyone who has no idea where to start on a healthier lifestyle, Stephanie hits it bang on and has some fabulous and simple recipes for you to follow.
You are taught how to maintain a protein:carbohydrate ratio of 1:1 for 6 days - this is a LOT of protein - my nemesis as I never seem to eat enough of it. I am a work in progress. Always.
She shows you how to weigh or eyeball the ratios out.
Over the course of the 10 days, exercise is increased, and we are given a meal plan for each day.
This Kindle edition ALSO includes Belly Fat Blowout II - a 5 week continuation of the program to really teach you healthy eating habits - there is a LOT of support and information provided.
During this 5 weeks, still no grains or foods with made with flour - like bread. Everyone else I know who has cut out bread and rice (grains) also just loses weight.
You also go to a more reasonable 2:1 carbohydrate:protein ratio.
Each week includes:
- A support call (you can download an MP3 for this)
- New recipes
- Facebook Support
- Morning Mantras
- Food Journal
Each week teaches you the basics about healthy eating, basic fitness, and more encouragement.
I think this book is great and well organized with a lot of helpful resources.
Belly Fat Blowout would be beneficial to anyone who thinks eating healthy is a hassle or has no idea where to start. Even I learned new information and got some delicious (and easy) recipes to help bring in that extra protein I'm looking for.

I received this book at no cost for my fair and fabulously honest review

Valentia True Glow Eye Cream
Ever since I was little, I have had dark circles under my eyes. Since I was a teenager, I have tried everything under the sun to lighten them up. And everything was a fail until I tried Valentina True Glow Eye Cream. This eye cream is wonderful! And it works. I noticed a difference only 3 days after using it. Which is awesome. I can’t wait to see what the difference will be in a few weeks. I love that this is not only for dark circles under your eyes. It is an eye cream that can also be used for puffiness, wrinkles and a combo of both. It also has all natural and organic ingredients.
The ingredients are:
Astaxanthin: The reigning King of the antioxidants - please take a bow - this little guy has 600 times more antioxidant power than Vitamin C, increases skin moisture, smoothes fine lines , and restores elasticity to the skin.
Resistem: or "Natures Miracles" as we like to call them. These plant stem cells work to repair damaged skin cells and protect the skin from stress related aging, leaving skin refreshed and renewed!
Vitamin C: This standout vitamin helps treat multiple skin care and really brightens the under eye are. Your under eye area will feel firmer and look brighter.
Organic Rosehip Oil: Dry and flaky under eyes be gone! Rosehip oil amps up skins moisture content, delivering deep nourishment and reducing the appearance of fine lines that can creep in when we're a bit dry under the eye.
Arnica: This botanical herb has been widely used in homeopathic medicine for bruising and soreness which is why we chose it for our True Glow Eye Cream. It stimulates white blood cells to relieve dark circles and puffiness.
This eye cream is available here on Amazon for the sale price of $24.99 with Prime. Highly recommend for anyone interested in trying a product that actually works.
I received this product at a heavily discount in exchange for my honest unbiased opinion.
