Friday Night Facial | Dead Sea Mud Mask #spon

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Hello Friends, I have a question for you, what is your favorite night of the week?  For me it is definitely Friday nights because after I get home and have dinner it’s time to sit back and relax and have some “pamper me” time. savings at cvs

Pedicures and facials are my all time favorite at home spa treatments and last week I had the opportunity to review the Dead Sea Mud Mask by Pure & Essential Minerals. As part of this Tomoson campaign I received a product code so that I could place an order for a jar of the Dead Sea Mud Mask directly from Amazon.com.

Dead Sea Mud Mask

 

The night before receiving the Dead Sea Mud Mask I got a confirmation email which also contained detailed instructions on how to apply the product.  After dinner I was anxious to get started, so I grabbed my head band, removed my make-up with a cleansing cloth then washed my face with warm water.

After washing my face and patting it dry I began applying the Dead Sea Mud Mask.  I only put on a medium layer making sure to avoid my eyes and lips, then washed my fingers.  I was surprised that it went on smoothly with no gritty feeling which is common in some mud masks.

I immediately smelled the Eucalyptus Oil, which gave me a slight tingling sensation, yet there was no major skin irritation or redness and all the other ingredients are organic in nature.

I kept the mask on for 15 minutes, and while waiting I read the side of the jar which contained facts about the Dead Sea.   Interesting fact: The Dead Sea is located between Israel and Jordan and is 1400 feet below sea level which is the lowest point on the earth’s surface.

The Dead Sea Mud Mask is supposed to draw out impurities, toxins and excess oils to leave the skin feeling soft and clean.  Dead Sea minerals nourishes and restores skin’s vitality, stimulates and improves blood circulation, resulting in a wonderful glow.

Rinse face after 15 minutes

After 15 minutes I rinsed my face with warm water using circular motions to exfoliated the skin, then used the wash cloth to remove some remaining mud.  It was a quick and non messy process that made my face feel smoother even the next morning I noticed a difference.

I splashed my face with cold water which seals the pores, used a little moisturizer then poured a glass of Sweet Red.  This is definitely going to be part of my Friday night “pamper me” regiment to keep my skin silky smooth all summer long.

Why I Liked TVOne’s Belle’s

TVOne just ended it’s first season of their new sitcom, Belle’s starring veteran actors Ella Joyce, Keith David and  Miguel Nunez as well as Elise Neil and newly minted reality actress and home girl (money earning Mt. Vernon) Tami Roman.  The show is narrated by 12 year old Nadka Alaya as Pam in a role similar to Aaron Meeks as Ahmad in Soul Food.   However, unlike Soul Food, this is light comedy, not forced comedy like Roc or The Hughley’s or extreme unreality like Basketball Wives, light comedy similar to Sparks.

As a “fifty something”  wife and mother, I enjoyed this show for several reasons: the time, 10 pm on Friday…end of the work week…after dinner…after hubby and sons have gone to their rooms…after weekly home pedicure…and after the 4th glass of Red Wine has kicked in. Light comedy with an excellent cast of characters that appear to work well together, great guest appearances like Wendy Williams and Gary Dourdan, a show that I hope remains on the air for a long time.

Thank you, TVOne for bringing family programming that I truly enjoy!

Duct Tape DIY

Hello Friends, I hope your Friday night is winding down and you are fine as wine…cheers…clink!

I was cleaning out my DIY supply drawer and found a roll of Zebra Print duct tape that was purchased from Dollar General and decided to do a quick project.

I covered a bracelet to wear with my Mossimo flats from Target.
