Dermatitis & Eczema Formula and Refresh Spray Review

Somewhat recently I made an order with Secrets of Eden.  I got the Dermatis Eczema Formula ($16.95) and the Refresh Spray ($10.99).  I wash my hands constantly and was in need of something pretty hardcore to make sure that I didn't end up cracked and bleeding again.  I saw this on YouTube and decided to give it a chance.  I like that its made with a bunch of natural ingredients and essential oils.  The refresh spray was just something for that added pick me up for my face as its pretty dry up here and moisture is a constant must.

The formula is pretty thick and somewhat solid.  It's like coconut oil when its cold.  I saw in the video that it has a medicine type smell which usually doesn't bother me.  I took this to work, where I wash my hands the most and thought I could apply this formula while I was doing other things.

This formula has a VERY strong scent.  I hadn't thought it would travel very far outside of my office, but shortly after applying it, I had a BUNCH of coworkers practically gagging on it.  It was described to me as smelling like lavender and wet dog.  It was very embarrassing.  So I washed it off my hands, apologized to everyone, and took it home.

I gave this formula another chance while I was on the computer at home.  My husband was in the other room watching the TV and apparently, he had no trouble smelling it either.  He crinkled his nose and asked what the horrendous smell was.  So that got set aside again.

With what I was able to use of this, it did an okay job.  I obviously cannot use it during the day when I'm around people, and not at night when I'm around my husband, so the use of it was limited.  For that limited time, it didn't do anything amazing, but perhaps with prolonged use.  Right now, I just use it to threaten people with.

The Refresh spray has a pleasant scent and works well. It is"With Lemon, Honey, MSM. and Ionically charged Silver." I usually use Avene Thermal spray.  I didn't see anything amazing with the Refresh, but its still nice to have the moisture.  I don't know if I would buy it again. I'm fairly happy with the Avene, but its nice to hava  back up or one I can stick in the car.

10 Weeks BodyChange Changetime Review

I enjoy the idea of online coaching.  I really like the sites that allow food tracking and have a community area to chat with people that are in it with you.  I like interaction with my trainer whenever needed or to give me a boost.  In my search for the perfect program, 10 Weeks BodyChange with John Cena somehow got on my radar. Okay not my typical type of guy I am attracted to, but I'm not blind.  John Cena is eye candy.  What's better?  Oh yeah, he actually seems like he is a great guy.  I think I could make myself workout with him. This program is $99 for 12 weeks of access.  I searched for a coupon code, but they were all expired.  There is also a payment option, but you pay more that way.  There is also a 30 day guarantee.  The program is 10 weeks, and you get another two of the access to the website.  Then you are cut off.  You can sign up/pay for their other program which is just a continuation and maintenance plan.  There is also a group on facebook.  There is supp

Centr Fitness App Review

Ah yes, it's time for another fitness review. This time I jumped on the bandwagon for Chris Hemsworth's Centr fitness app. I started out with the seven day free trial to see if it was even worth the full try. Lest I say, I stayed on to get the full experience. Signing up is super easy. There is not really much that you have to fill in but you do have the usual height and weight. There are a few goals and preferences that you can fill in, and then you get the whole week's plan. The options for the goals are lose weight, get fit & toned, and build muscle.  I have to say that I can really appreciate that they've made this app to cover pretty much everyone's major goal. There is also a preference for the diet being: regular, pescatarian, vegetarian, and vegan.  Even if you choose to have the regular plan, you can look forward to having some vegetarian options come up in your meal plan. These are able to be changed but I like that it rounds out the nutrition in

131 Method Diet Review

The Beta Test Group - The Beginning A long while back I kept seeing little ads for a beta test group that Chalene Johnson was putting on for a diet program on Facebook. After I caved in and joined I found that they had done this in a couple of rounds so they had a couple groups at different times. (It is an interesting concept of paying to be part of a test group, even though it was reasonable priced for what it was. You are pretty much paying them to be their guinea pig.) In the end it was done in two sections which were paid for separately (both still a relatively small cost). There was so much information coming at you, and for someone that likes to know the ins and outs of what information is out there, stuff from doctors, hospitals, dietitians, etc.  It seemed like a good amount of people were losing weight based on the program. After the beta test groups were done, they were going to go live with the full program. Being a beta tester we got a free membership for the first rou
