Kiss Me Organics Organic Dandelion Root Tea review

Organic Dandelion Root Tea with Hibiscus & Cinnamon is USDA Organic certified so you can be assured you're getting a regulated product. This tea helps healthy digestion by supporting liver and kidney detoxification which in turn helps the body absorb more nutrients and improve your body functions.

Each box contains 20 sachets which contain 2 grams of tea per bag. As far as taste, I taste something similar to licorice which I don't enjoy. I didn't get any taste of hibiscus and wish it was was a bit stronger to cut out the licorice-like taste for me.

Also, I did not like that the cinnamon powder is too fine for the tea bag and goes through it. So when you open a bag, be careful as the bottom will have cinnamon powder in the fold.

Overall, this tea is good, especially with a meal to aid with digestion. I personally don't like the taste because it reminds me of licorice but that is easily fixed for me when I mix it with other teas. It's also great that you can get 5 boxes at a go and save on re-ordering. If you're interested in trying out Kiss Me Organics' Dandelion Root Tea with Hibiscus & Cinnamon, check them out here.

Kiss Me Organics Culinary Grade Organic Matcha review

I had a chance to try out Kiss Me Organics Culinary Grade Organic Matcha recently and was pleasantly surprised. Traditional matcha is supposed to have a slight bitter taste because of its high caffeine content but this organic matcha didn't. Since I enjoy drinking matcha with sugar and milk, which some would call a sin, it's nice that there isn't a bitter note

I like that unlike brewed green tea, this matcha contains the entire tea leaf which dramatically increases the nutritional content. There are many ways to incorporate this in your diet through smoothies, muffins, pancakes, etc. and they blend nicely to me.

I enjoyed trying this matcha an hope Kiss Me Organics comes out with a larger version soon that comes in a spill-proof container.

Radha Beauty Intensive Youth Eye Gel review

I've tried a lot of eye creams, especially this past winter season; some worked well and some did nothing for me.

Aside from Radha Beauty's Intensive Youth Eye Gel working for my eye concerns (puffiness, dark circles, dry paper-y feeling), the thing I love the most about this is that it has an amazingly unique scent. It smells like sun-ripened cantaloupe which I love! I hate sweet scents in anything skincare or beauty related but this scent is soothing and soft.

On to the product's effectiveness... Yes this did work to soothe my tired puffy eyes. Since I have late nights and early mornings, I apply this before bed and when I'm up a few hours later, I don't have a telltale sign of my insomnia. I also do not get dark circles anymore. I still have deep wrinkles under my eyes but this does help to fill in the ridges slightly so that when I apply primer, it doesn't look cakey.

Though I received an initial bottle as a sample to provide my honest review on, I have repurchased it because it's effective. The smell of something usually is not important in skincare but in this product, it does not detract from the effectiveness.

Radha Beauty 100% Pure Argan Oil review

As one of my new favorite companies, I was happy to try out Radha Beauty's 100% Pure Argan Oil.

Argan oil is multi-purpose and as desperate as my dry hair was, I was not about to pay an inflated price for a brand name argan oil that wasn't even organic! Thankfully, Radha Beauty's Argan Oil is all of the benefits without the ridiculous price tag. Best of all, you get a generous 4 ounce bottle as opposed to many comparable versions that are 1 ounce.

Because it is nourishing and fast-absorbing, I use it many of my beauty recipes. I apply it before washing my hair as a mask and again after washing it. For my hair, I've set aside some of the oil in another tinted bottle and added peppermint oil to give a cooling sensation that stimulates my scalp.

I also use this in my lip scrub and to condition afterwards. The list can go on and on regarding the uses for Radha Beauty's Argan Oil but it's a staple for me.

I would recommend this argan oil happily, knowing that it's a quality product that will work for people seeking a lightweight moisturizer that has many uses.
