Kiss Me Organics Ceremonial Grade Matcha Review!

I don't know about you, but I LOVE Matcha. Ever since I worked at Starbucks years ago, I've been obsessed with making Green Tea Lattes and frappuccinos with Matcha. It makes for a stronger, better tasting latte in my opinion vs steeped green tea, and has so many health benefits! I was given the opportunity to try and review this Organic Ceremonial Grade Matcha powder from Kiss Me Organics, and here are my thoughts!

Price: $28 for Ceremonial Grade $25 for Culinary

This matcha powder comes in the cutest little tin. It comes sealed in a little package and I just dumped it into the tin and it's adorable. I decided to make a hot green tea latte with my matcha. As for taste, you can definitely tell it's a high quality powder. It doesn't taste cheap like some of the powders I've tried that are made in China. It has a smooth, not powdery or overpowering taste to it that I really enjoyed. 

Kiss Me Organics provides high quality, first harvest matcha powder that is imported from Japan. It contains 137x the antioxidants than steeped green tea and has TONS of health benefits. It does contain caffeine, but isn't overpowering. It is also stated that it is supposed to help boost your metabolism, as green tea is often used for weight loss. :) PLUS it can also help your skin! What more could you want from a tea?!

The directions state to mix like 1 tsp with 3 oz of water then add more to taste. I ended up using quite a bit of matcha powder to get the desired taste I needed for this latte. Overall, I liked it, but I did have a little bit of trouble getting it to dissolve all the way. The first time I tried to just whisk it in, as per the directions, but was left with little green clumps, so I switched it over to my Jax shaker bottle. Once I did that I reheated it for like 30 seconds and shook the hell out of it to get it smooth. I wish it were easier to get it dissolved, but overall I like this powder and will definitely be using it again.

I make my green tea lattes with matcha powder, sugar, hot water, and milk. This one had whip cream on top because I was feeling fancy. I just add everything to taste. :)

Paradise Coconut Oil Review!

Hi everyone!! Tonight I'm bringing you a review of my NEW FAVORITE thing in the world!!! Coconut oil!! This stuff can literally be used for everything you can imagine, and I was lucky enough via Tomoson, and Theravita Paradise Coconut Oil to get a chance to try their out to review for you guys!!!

Here's a photo for your reference:

As you can probably tell from the packaging, this is a HUGE jar of coconut oil!! It's also top of the line, premium grade, 100% PURE coconut oil that can be used for everything from your skin, nails, hair, eating, and even smoothies!!! I chose to test this out on my cuticles, skin, and hair, because I feel weird about already having dipped my hands into to the product and then putting it in my mouth,

When you first scoop out some of the oil, it firm to the touch, but it instantly melts in your fingers like butter. When I used it as a cuticle oil, I simply applied it to my cuticles and it instantly left them feeling moisturized and refreshed!! 

On my skin, I actually mixed it together with my raw shea butter and tea tree oil and made my own moisturizer for my dry spots on my hands, feet, elbows, and knees. Again, it left them feeling amazing!! This stuff work GREAT as a moisturizer!!

On my hair, I used it as a deep conditioner that I basically slathered all over my hair and scalp, then left it on overnight. After I washed it out my hair felt SO ridiculously soft and wonderful. I will definitely be using this as a regular hair treatment. 

Again, there are SO many ways you can use Pure coconut oil, and I'm looking forward to trying out even more things I can do with it!!

Does anyone have any suggestions for me?? If so, post it in the comments!!

UNi 100% Argan Oil Review

This evening I have a quick, but unfortunately really late, review of a product called UNi Argan Oil. I thought I'd published it, but apparently not.

I've tried a few different argan oils lately through Tomoson, and this one definitely works really well. This product is excellent for deep treatments as well as a cuticle oil! And we all know my cuticles always need help. A little bit definitely goes a long way though,  the first time I used it my hair was super greasy. Lol live and learn! It's a super rich and moisturizing product, that's for sure!

The packaging is pleasant. It comes in a smaller sized brown bottle with simple, yet classy writing on it. The dropper works well, since the bottle is smaller you can usually gauge how much you need but just one squeeze of the dropper.

The only problem I really have with UNi argan oil is that it kind of smells horrible. At first it I thought it was just me, but I asked my husband and he was like oh my god what is that. It does still perform really well though, so I'd suggest using it as a cuticle oil with lotion after to hide the scent, or as a deep treatment that you can wash out of your hair so it doesn't smell weird the rest of the day.

That begin said, do take into account that some 100% Argan oils can have a weird smell to them. Most I've tried are nutty smelling though. But you can try this one for yourself and see what you think!

I'd definitely repurchase, and if you like to learn more or purchase CLICK HERE!!!

My apologies for the late review!!!  I had written this up over two weeks ago.  :( More to come this evening!
