Have you heard of Belli???


Eye Brightening Cream:

Hello, I would like to share with you a new company I just discovered called Belli.  This company offers all kinds of wonderful products to helps us all feel pampered and to make us feel better about ourselves. 


I wanted to try out the Eye Cream as my eyes always have such dark circles under them that I hate to leave the house. It seems no matter how much sleep I get the still have the dark circles. I have tried so many products and none of them ever help. So when Belli sent me this one I just figured I would try it but that it would not work. Only I was wrong the black circles diminished and the puffiness went away. I can tell you I am going to get this for my sister to try as well as she has the same issues I have and I think it would make her feel better about herself. 


A Vitamin K enriched eye cream that revives and illuminates tired eyes. 




  • Features Vitamin K-- scientifically reported* to help reduce the appearance ofdark circles
  • Uses hydrolyzed soy protein to minimize the appearance of fine lines
  • Hydrates delicate skin around the eyes to reduce the appearance of puffiness
  • Cools and comforts on contact

    * Elson M, NacHT S: Treatment of periorbital hyperpigmentation with topical vitamin K / vitamin A. Cosmetic Dermatol 12(12):32, 1999. 






  • All Day Moisture Body Lotion
  • A luxurious emollient cream that deeply moisturizes, soothes and comforts dry skin. 
  • Features lemon oil which is known for its uplifting qualities
  • Chamomile soothes and refreshes
  • Includes Vitamin E as an antioxidant

  • This is wonderful to use when I get out of the shower or when I return from the pool. It makes my skin feel so soft and smooth. I even use it after I shave. I love that it is not greasy and how well it glides on.  The scent is refreshing and it is not overpowering. I will be purchasing this item from Belli for stocking stuffers for both my mom and my mother n law as I know they both would enjoy some new lotion as they both have dry skin and this will help them with that. I like that it contains Lemon Oil as everyone knows it is good for us. Plus that it has Chamomile in it as it can calm you down. 
  • Acne Cleansing Facial Wash 

  • An exfoliating wash; rich in powerful pore-cleansing ingredients that leaves skin clear and refined, without over-drying. 
  • Features pregnancy-friendly lactic acid to cleanse and gently exfoliate acne prone skin
  • FREE of salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and benzoyl peroxide-- common acne fighting ingredients that should be avoided during pregnancy
  • Contains lemon peel oil, a natural anti-bacterial and skin brightener
  • With green tea extract and cucumber, both are rich in antioxidants


  • Even though this is made for women who are pregnant I had my step daughter try it out as she is 17 and her face is always breaking out. I can tell you since she has started to use it it has not broken out once. It has even gotten to the point that some of her friends moms are thinking of buying it for there girls. I like that it is non greasy and that it gets your face really clean. It cause your face to glow once you use it. I will be purchasing it for my friend Rachael who is pregnant as well.  I like that it does not fry out your skin and that the scent is light and not over powering. 




  • Body Firming Serum 

  • This advanced serum improves the tone and appearance of slackened skin. 
  • Gives skin a megadose of revitalizing ingredients such as shiitake mushroom and pumpkin seedcake
  • Features rice proteins to help maintain the appearance of healthy, smooth looking skin
  • Rich in antioxidants and skin-fortifying peptides




  • I can tell you this is something I really wanted to try as it helps with sagging breast and even though I am not pregnant my breast and buttocks sag. So I decided I would try it out and not tell anyone and see if anyone would notice and I must say my husband did which surprised me. Plus when I put on my bathing suit it looked better. I then went to the pool and people asked if I had lost weight which I had not but I could tell they wondered what I had done and no I did not tell them.  I am going to let the wonder. But what I can tell you is I am never going to stop using it and since my friend Rachael is pregnant I am going to get the whole set for her and give it  to her at her babyshower as she is not wanting to get Stretch Marks and I think this will keep it from happening.

    Monkey Balm

    Have you heard of Monkey Balm???

    Well neither had I when Charlie was little but I wish I had. As it contains no harmful ingredients and it works on so many issues baby's can get. I like the fact that it is also good for adults. I wish I had looked at the site earlier this summer though as Monkey Balm works on Sunburn and Charlie and my sister both had a bad one at the beginning of summer and I would have liked to have seen how it worked. Poor Charlie could not even sleep with it. He was so miserable. So next year I am going to have some on hand incase it happens again for him to try.

    I can even use this on Dry Cracked Skin and so I am wondering how it would work on my heels as they keep cracking and they look so nasty and so I think I am going to try it out.

    I also love the Logo they use the Monkey is so cute. It makes me want to buy it just for him.

    My friend Rachael is having a baby soon and so I am going to purchase some for her for her Baby Shower as it says it works on Diaper Rash and with it being free of all harmful ingredients I would like for her to try it out.

    If you have not heard of Monkey Balm I would like to have you check out there website at http://www.MonkeyBalm.com and let me know what you think of it Please.

    I am the mother of 3 wonderful boys, each with terribly dry-skin and eczema.  They would scratch that itchy dry skin to the point it would bleed.  Living in the Mountain West didn’t help either, with the super dry climate and extreme temperature swings. 


    Monkey Balm Sea Buckthorn Eczema Balm

    After years of trying every over-the-counter and prescription cream under the sun to help my poor little Monkeys, I found out about Sea Buckthorn Oil.  It’s used in many luxury Asian and European skin careproducts and natural skin treatments due to its unique power to heal damaged skin and protect it from the elements. 
    We (my husband and I) started experimenting with simple, effective methods to deliver this miraculous oil to the sensitive skin of our kids.  After a few years of trial and error, we finally nailed it.  Monkey Balm is the culmination of many different formulas and application methods.  It’s the perfect combination of an effective, “no-stingy” formula, the main ingredient being sea buckthorn fruit and seed oils, and a simple, easy to use application “stick” that lasts longer than any cream or salve I have ever tried.
    It is of utmost importance to me and my family to use only the most natural, safe, chemical-free products and food.  That is why the ingredients in Monkey Balm are 100% natural.  The sea buckthorn oils are 100% CERES certified organic and come from a sustainable, fair-trade source in the Himalayan mountains.
    Though this product has been specially designed to be mild and safe for kids – as young as newborns – it’s great for adults as well.   We use it for run-of-the-mill dry skin, cracked heels and knuckles, scrapes and burns, and even insect bites.  
    If Monkey Balm works for you and your kids as it has for my family, you will be utterly amazed at the results and your “Monkeys” will consider you a miracle-worker.

    Rub A Dub Dub!! One Clean Doggy!!

    To me my puppy Sandi is more than just a "DOG" she is my best friend. I love her so much. She is treated just like the family in so many ways. Sometimes my husband says I treat her better than him. The thing is though I was given her by David right after Suzzane was killed and so she quickly became my best friend. She was the one I would take to about Suzzane. Plus she did not mind when I would curl up with her and cry.

    Then Charlie was born and he became my best friend but Sandi is still my baby girl. I Love her so much and would buy her anything.

    Then Charlie got his puppy Lucy from his sister Leslie. She is treated as well as Sandi is only by Charlie as I do not do much with her as she is not mine.

    So with Sandi she is white and black and her skin drys out so much that I am always looking for ways to make it softer and for her to be clean. As she has a tendency to scratch and make her skin bleed which I hate.

    Lucy is a Chi Weenie and she is yellow and so she does not do this. Plus her skin is not dry and she does not scratch. So she can take a bath in any type of soap.

    Sandi has to have special soap and so I found her some Oat Meal soap and it worked for a while but then it stopped.

    So I went on a hunt for a new soap for her. I found Molly's Suds. I wanted to try Molly's Suds as they where made by a mom and I thought that they would be better for Sandy. With these she does not scratch. her coat is shinny and soft and no matter how many baths I give her she does not fight me as she knows she will fell better after I use it..

    For me I like that it is 1000% natural. it has no harsh chemicals which is a huge plus. It has no fragrance in it and it is Dye Free which I am so happy to hear.

    The soap even has a nice smell. I like that it has Peppermint in it and that it helps repel fleas. I also like that it has Lavender in it as we all know it can calm you.
