Nutri-Synergy Product Reviews

Nutri-Synergy are natural alternative to dry, sensitive and problem skin. The range provides effective treatment for dry, sensitive or problem skin using natural, active ingredients to formulate products that are naturally beneficial.

I was sent some wonderful products from Nutri-Synergy to review and they are really good!

The NS Sensitive Skin Cleanser (retails for $14.95 for 500ml)  is a non-foaming cleanser for sensitive, very dry or problem skin. This natural pH balanced soap-free wash cleanses the skin without stripping natural skin oils. It helps maintain skin’s optimum hydration, and is particularly suitable for eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis. I love the way this feels on the skin, so refreshing and clean. My 7 year old son has sensitive skin and he really likes the way this feels on his skin too. He was so happy, he said his face felt "smooth and fresh".

The NS-7 Dry Skin moistuiser (retails for $12.95 250ml) is hydrating and nourishing moisturiser which can be used on the face and body. It contains key ingredients like almond oil, soy protein, allantoin, shea butter, aloe vera, calendula and vitamins B5, C and E. I use this as soon as a get out of the shower to moisturise my legs and arms and its great, it absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling hydrated and healthy. My husband uses this too and really likes it. I use this on both my kids (seven and one year old) when they have dry skin and it works really well, getting rid of the dryness quickly.

The NS-5 Protective Hand Cream (retails for $7.95 60g)  protects and nourishes the skin, giving relief to dry, chapped hands. It is light, non-greasy and provides protection for skin and locks in natural moisturisers. I love this hand cream, I have tried many hand creams and I must say this may be the best one I have tried. It feels the hands feeling smooth and silky. My hands get dry, so I need something that will keep them moisturised and after using this hand cream, my hands feel great. This is a must have!

I definitely recommend these products for everyone in the family, men, women and children. They are a great natural way of looking after our skin. They can be purchased at Priceline, most chemists or pharmacies and online.

*****I have been featured!***** On Domestic Ease.......

I was so excited  to be featured on Domestic Ease, a online site for today's busy woman, where you find quick tips and tricks for living a life full of domestic ease.

Kristin Kampbell the Executive Editor of Domestic Ease came up with this concept:  "a site dedicated to anyone out there who just wants to enjoy the home they have been gifted, the family they love and the career they cherish–blemishes and all.  A place where women of all backgrounds and life journeys can share ideas and help support one another in the seemingly mundane endeavors of daily life.  A new way of living, inspiring and exhaling–by fully realizing domestic ease."

Domestic Ease is a great site full of resources and information.

Can you leave the past behind?

This is a Pocket Inspirations card that I keep in my study. I've had it for years, I picked it up from a Christian store, not sure if they still sell it, but there are many great inspirational cards you can buy.

I really like this one and find it inspirational, so I wanted to share it with you all.

I love how it says that you can use your past to 'highlight a point then leave it behind'. I find it so true that even though not everything goes to plan, if there are times when things have gone wrong, we can learn from it and move on.
We need to live in the moment, for today and live it to the fullest. Everyday is another day and what we do with our day, depends on us.

I strive to live everyday positively, knowing that I only get one chance to live this day, today. I want to be 'filled with love and understanding', ready for anything life throws at me!

Hope this has brightened your day! How are you inspired?

Do you get enough sleep?

In the last few weeks I haven't had much sleep. I'm too busy to sleep!  I get most things done in the evenings and most nights end up going to bed after midnight. I know its not good for my body, because I feel fatigued, the next day and dont have much energy.

Sleep gives the brain a chance to reorganize information to find answers to problems, to process new information, and to organize and archive memories.  Sleep is such an important bodily function, and even though we might put off going to sleep, eventually sleep will take over, as I have discovered! 

Sleep has a healing effect in that it gives our bodies and minds time to rejuvenate, reenergize, and restore. Sleep is a type of unconsciousness and is a state of being unaware of the world. How much sleep should a person get each night? Depends. Some people need a great deal of sleep, while others require only a minimum of sleep. We need to get the amount of sleep necessary to feel alert, healthy, and  fit. The average person maintains his health with about eight hours of sleep. Having dreams while you are sleeping  is actually good for your health too.

Not enough sleep can cause a drop in performance, lack of concentration, lapses in memory, accidents and injuries, behavior and mood problems.

The benefits of sleep are that sleep helps to repair your body, keep your heart healthy, keeps your skin looking refreshed, reduces stress, improves your memory, can help you to control your body weight.

Sleep is essential to good health as it refreshes the body and the mind. If you get enough sleep regularly every night you will feel and also be able to work better.

Find YOUR Inspiration!

Where do you get your inspiration from?  It could be anyone or anything that inspires you. Your parents, siblings, children, authors, teachers, co - workers, or a book you read, a quote, a blog, a story etc............

The most influential and inspirational people in our lives will affect and shape the way we live and think. I get inspired by others who make great achievements as it helps me know that if they can do it, then I can do it.

I love  inspirational quotes of the day books, that give you something to think about each day. If you need it buy one. They will help you to focus on something different everyday.
The best motivation comes from within us. You must motivate yourself everyday.

True happiness comes from within YOU.  As in any situation, your reaction determines whether the event is stressful for you or not. It is the same with happiness.

Every morning, say to yourself, "I am happy today", then you will be. Whenever you get stressed, just mentally tell yourself"I am happy today", the stress will be there, but your reaction will be minimal.
That person who always has a smile and goes about his day happily, wont experience stress the same way that a stressed person does. He is happy, and being happy allows the stress make less of a impact on you.

So, make your determination every morning. Remind yourself with sticky notes all over the house and at work ' I AM HAPPY TODAY'
Say it aloud to yourself often throughout the day, especially on those days where there may be stress. If you keep on saying it, you will believe it.
Then, put a smile on your face and confront the world. When you are happy, you have the world in your hands and can achieve anything YOU want to!

Keep on Smiling - it will get better!

So many times I see people anxious over things that have happened. It just takes one circumstance to occur and instantly the brain panics, we are consumed by sadness and anxiety attacks. Everyone has a story to tell, and its happened to everyone no matter how big or small.

We need to be STRONGER! We need to keep on SMILING! Positive thinking in life is a MUST! Life is too short and no one can afford to let anything stop you or hinder your progress in life.

I love waking up in the morning, as I know it is a new day and I can start fresh......I also love going to bed, as I know that the day is over and I can rest and rejuvenate for the next day. Its like a circle it just keeps on going round and round.

I live by the motto - ' Be happy ' - and I alway try and focus on happy, positive things.

Laugh each day, find something to smile about. If you can't, go for a walk and ponder on the trees, grass, sky - trust me it will make you feel relaxed and happy.

Surround yourself with positive people, people that will make you laugh, let you be silly, let you have fun.

Music is a fantastic pick me up - it works all the time and for everyone. Trust me even a few dance moves will help!!

Talk to yourself and reassure yourself that you are great and fabulous and that you have so much to offer to this world. Because you do.

Remember that someone loves you, and you are the best person in the world! Keep smiling!!
