Feel young again, Naturally, with Valentia {Review}



Valentia is back, and better than ever with their new True Glow Eye Cream! I've reviewed Valentia products in the past and they certainly don't disappoint. I have other facial creams and cleansers lining my dresser but nothing compares to Valentia. Two specific qualities make Valentia stand out from the rest. First and foremost, the texture. The true glow eye cream is thick and smooth. This makes it easy to apply. Secondly, the scent. Seriously, once you try these products you won't want to go back because of the scent alone! It's fruity, fun and refreshing. It's not strong but pleasant and soothing. 

The cream uses natural ingredients including, astaxanthin which smooths fine lines and wrinkles, and restores elasticity to the skin.
It also has resistem, vitamin C, organic rosehip oil and arnica which works to diminish the appearance of dark circles.

Yes, I am an older homeschool mom (not too far of from being over the hill,) with a growing family. Sure, there are days that I am tired but I certainly don't want my face to show it! I am determined not to be one of those moms that appear tired and miserable. Bags under the eyes certainly give that impression. Even if you're as chipper as a chipmunk if you have obvious bags under the eyes, you're pegged as overworked, overtired and worn down. I've been applying Valentia True Glow Eye Cream for several weeks now and have noticed a slight improvement in the appearance of under my eyes. I still need to cover under my eyes with foundation if I am going out, but they certainly aren't as dark and puffy as before! I applied once daily, and it quickly became a part of my morning routine.



Another awesome product by Valentia is their Ultra Plumping Hydration Mask. In the same fashion as a mud mask, the hydration mask uses ingredients from nature including a silk protein amino acid blend, botanical hyaluronic acid, organic sea buckthorn oil, Japanese green tea, and aloe vera. This product requires you to leave it on your face for15-30 minutes. Since this is made of natural ingredients that isn't a problem for most people. Unfortunately for me though, I am caffeine intolerant. I am affected by even the slightest amount, even through the skin so having this product, which is made with green tea, on my skin for an extended period of time is not wise.

Original 13 Colonies Fact Cards (Free Printable)

These Thirteen Colonies Fact Cards were created for my kids as we studied early American history. What a pivotal time in our history! Puritans seeking religious freedom, adventurers setting out for a new land, and those in debt hoping for a fresh start—a new life. From the first colony in Virginia, until all thirteen stars on the first American flag were represented, these cards are a perfect review for your homeschoolers. Use them to drill the first thirteen colonies so your child can recite them with ease, and have them dictate the information on the cards to help them remember a small fact about each colony. Feel free to print these out and have your children write facts that they learn about each colony on the back. Go ahead and laminate them, too!    Simply right-click, save, and print to use this resource in your homeschool as you study about the original thirteen colonies in America. Use the facts for dictation, copy work, or discussion in your home. Disclaimer: All co...

  Use this truck-themed homeschool chore chart to keep your kids on track throughout the school week. With lessons, field trips, meals, and unexpected errands filling up your week, even the simplest chore chart can help your home run more smoothly. At times, kids are excited for the new opportunity to help out around the house and do it with joy. Other times they stomp toward the trash can with anything but a good attitude.

For the child who loves lists (and the mom) this is the perfect free printable to have on hand!   (Simply right-click, save, and print)

The Pencil Grip Inc. {Review}

We have found what we have been looking for in The Pencil Grip Inc .'s 24 pack of Magic Stix Washable Markers . These markers are the perfect fit for a homeschooling family such as ours. I am thrilled to tell you about our experience with them! Normally, I do not have a favorable impression of markers for several reasons. For one, as a kid, I remember markers having such a strong smell that it would give me a headache. I know some kids enjoyed the scents but it certainly was not for me. And to be honest, if I had markers like that in my house today, my kids would probably stick them up their nose or something. Another reason I have a distaste for markers is the drying out factor. As a parent of many children this is super frustrating. I finally teach the older ones to put the caps back on when they are done using their markers but then a younger one comes along and just doesn't understand. This then leads to the undue frustration of your child sitting down to...
