Blueberry Picking Post

Hi, how are you today? I am way behind on posting pictures of stuff we have been doing this summer.

I have more pictures to post of some different things. But for now here is some pictures of a blueberry picking trip my daughter and I took.

This was at least a month ago:





I also found a really good blueberry muffin recipe online.  Here's a picture of one that I made - lol.

Review: Skin Actives Vitamin A Cream - Twilight Awakening





I  was given a sample of Skin Actives Vitamin A Cream - Twilight Awakening -

I have been trying this product for about 2 weeks. The suggested use says apply at night. So that is what I have been doing.

Here is some product info for you:

Vitamin A is needed by the retina of the eye in the form of a specific metabolite, the light-absorbing molecule retinal. Vitamin A is also crucial for our skin: when oxidized to retinoic acid, it is a growth factor for epithelial cells, where it binds to two different nuclear receptors to control gene transcription. Our Vitamin A Cream is one of our best selling products and will help improve wrinkles, acne, and pores. 


Please visit the Skin Actives Website for a complete list of ingredients in this cream. There is also a sun warning with this cream:

Warning: This product increases the risk of sunburn, so care should be taken to protect treated skin from overexposure to ultraviolet light. Stay in the shade or use sunscreen. 

But I really like this cream. It goes on smoothly, and has no fragrance which I like that. It seems to be doing wonders for my pores. And that is another thing to get excited about!
