Kleem Organics Jeunesse Intensive Rejuvenating Vitamin C Serum

 

 
I recently had the opportunity to ask Matteo and Joseph, the owners of Kleem Organics, some questions about their company and their Intensive Rejuvenating Vitamin C Serum which I am doing this review on today.  They were more than happy to answer my questions and went above and beyond to ensure that I had the information I needed and was completely satisfied.  In fact, Matteo explained that customer satisfaction is their top priority and how important it is to them that they offer a product that is truly beneficial to others and they want to hear that their customers are happy.  Bringing happiness is what they are all about.  I learned about their company name "Kleem" and it's meaning... 
 
Matteo explained:  "Kleem carries the Akarshana Shakti or the 'power of attraction'. Kleem is the seed mantra of desire, love and beauty and helps us to achieve our true wishes in life. Kleem is the mantra of love and devotion, increasing the love energy within our hearts. For this reason, it is one of the most beneficial mantras, and one of the most widely used.
Kleem is mainly a Kapha (water)-promoting mantra and is particularly good for the reproductive system and for the plasma and skin... It strengthens the immune system and brings contentment to the entire being.
That’s actually what we want for our clients. Every time they see our brand, they are actually attracting beauty towards themselves and their life."
 
"Jeunesse" is a french word meaning "youth".

I personally found it incredibly intriguing and beautiful that such meaning was chosen for their company name and the sincerity behind it.  You know those good "vibes" you get sometimes?  Yes, I have no doubt about it, this is a company who genuinely cares about their customers.  They care about their customer's opinions.  Any suggestions and complaints are taken with the utmost importance and these are what Matteo and Joseph use to make improvements to their brand.  I took a peek at some of the reviews posted on their product site and I found care and kindness shine through in Matteo and Joseph's replies to their customer reviews, including the critical reviews.  It speaks for itself about the excellent customer care just by reading those. You can read those reviews and responses HERE 
 
Not only is the customer care excellent but so is their product.  I focused on using the serum for several weeks before posting this review so I would have time to see how it works for me.  First of all I love the scent.  It reminds me of one of those orange push pops I used to eat as a kid. 
 
 
I don't know why but it does! It is definitely a nice citrus orange fragrance that is not overpowering and fades rather quickly. It absorbs quickly into the skin and has a slight tightening effect.  The serum is more of a liquid than a "cream" which is specifically made that way for deep absorption and to do it's job.  What is it's job?  It is formulated with natural ingredients that work on a cellular level to enhance your skin's own collagen production.  I found out this may not happen instantly.  Since collagen production diminishes with age and I am in my 40's, it didn't happen overnight for me, but now I am seeing gradual improvements to lines, wrinkles and acne scars after using the serum for a few weeks.  What I DID see happen instantly is soft, smooth, moisturized, radiant skin with less redness and a reduction in pore size.
 
This serum is protected in an air tight container specifically made to protect it from contamination and keep it fresh. 
 
It contains NATURAL & ORGANIC INGREDIENTS. 98% Natural 72% Organic Pure Vitamin C serum for face. Certified by FDA, Doctor Trusted & PETA. No harmful chemicals for the skin, health or environment. Cruelty-FREE

I use this serum twice a day, morning and night on my face, neck and decollete right after cleansing.  After the serum absorbs, I use a moisturizer.  The Kleem Serum works well with other products that I use and has not aggravated my mild adult acne.  I highly recommend this product and give it a thumbs up!  I

Perennial Essentials Flexible Cutting Mats

"Eco friendly silicone mat for those small quick jobs. Store in a drawer. Set of 4 durable, flexible, compact, light weight and practical kitchen cutting mats with food icons. "

My LIL Friend!

 

 

 

This is a set of 4 flexible cutting mats made of silicone for easy use and clean up.  They are color coded for: Blue/Fish, Green/Vegetables, Yellow/Fruit, Red/Meats.  Each mat has a handy grid pattern with measurements for those cutting jobs that require perfect portions and certain sizes.  These mats are great for those times when you don't want to get the big cutting board out.  These are about the size of a regular piece of paper (8"x12") and can be hung by the slots or would fit into a drawer for storage.  A dandy lil friend indeed, and every kitchen would benefit with a set of these to save prep and clean up time.  I recommend this set and give them a thumbs up!

Southernstep Reviews: GoPure 100% Pure Lavender Essential Oil:   GoPure 100% Pure Lavender Essential Oil   Ahhhh Lavender essential oil!  This fragrance is just so calming and relaxing to me....

GoPure 100% Pure Lavender Essential Oil


 

GoPure 100% Pure Lavender Essential Oil

 
Ahhhh Lavender essential oil!  This fragrance is just so calming and relaxing to me.  For me, it relieves stress, is calming and can promote sleep.  There are so many uses for this amazing essential oil, my favorite is to fragrance my home with it.  I also enjoy candle making and lavender is one of my favorite candles that I make.  The GoPure brand oil is a 100% Bulgarian pure essential oil which is a high quality product with a great scent throw.  It is therapeutic grade undiluted and as described on the bottle "Calming, Balancing, Clarifying & Relaxing".  "No toxins, No additives, Unfiltered and Undiluted with No Fillers.  Packaged in the USA."  This oil comes in a large 4 oz bottle with dropper included.  It is in a dark glass bottle which prolongs the life of the oil and protects it from light. 
I have tried oils before that were weak in comparison to this brand.  I am very impressed with this essential oil and I do recommend it if you are looking for a premium lavender oil.  If you would like to try this lovely essential oil, it can be purchased by clicking here

Frankincense oil, Peppermint oil, Lavender oil by "Radha"

 
 

I was so delighted to get to try these 3 essential oils by Radha. I have heard a lot about frankincense and this is my first timeexperiencing it. I find it to be a "woodsy"type scent. I am intrigued because I have heard that it is so good for the skin and face. I am still learning about the many uses and for now I will use it for aromatherapy to fragrance my home and perhaps make some candles. The peppermint oil reminds me
of candy-making and if I make some candles with it I will add a bit of vanilla so that it will smell like old fashioned peppermint candy. The lavender oil is just lovely and I find it to be very calming. Lavender is known to be a stress reliever as well as relaxing. But it is definately pleasing either way and having my house fragranced with it makes me happy! My review for these oils is a thumbs up and I recommend them.

Review: "The Advanced Neck and Décolleté Cream For Celebrity Skin" by Anaiti


I'm a firm believer in being proactive about skincare and slowing the signs of aging.  The sooner you start taking care of your skin the better.  Now that I'm in my 40's I have started paying much more attention to caring for my maturing skin, and especially focusing on areas that I often neglected in my younger years like the neck and décolleté.  Décolleté ?  The what?
 
Décolleté or Décolletage is a French word which is derived from decolleter, meaning to reveal the neck. The term was first used in English literature sometime before 1831.  In strict usage, décolletage is the neckline extending about two handbreadths from the base of the neck down, front and back.
Info via: Wikipedia, read more about décolleté here
 




Décolleté of Mona Lisa
 

I recently received Anaiti's "The Advanced Neck and Décolleté Cream for Celebrity Skin" complimentary for the purpose of test and review. The first thing I noticed when I began using the Anaiti cream, was the light citrusy fragrance. It is a nice scent that doesn't linger very long once it is absorbed. This is a plus for me because it doesn't overpower my body sprays and perfumes that I love to wear like some lotions and creams can.

The Anaiti cream absorbs quickly into the skin and is non-greasy, which makes it much easier for me to use other products alongside it as well, such as serums, sunscreen or makeup. So far it has complimented the other products that I use well and it has not aggravated my mild adult acne, if anything it has calmed it. This cream definitely moisturizes well and leaves the skin soft. I have seen gradual improvements to my skin in the last few weeks of using the Anaiti cream and with continued use over time I believe I'll see even more.  I'll continue to use this product and do an update later if needed.  In conclusion to my review I give this product a thumbs up and I do recommend it!
