Lemon Essential Oil Review

Citrus scents are one of my favorite kinds of scents. Most Flower scents bother me so I don't wear perfume very often. Very hard to find something I can wear without sneezing, coughing, etc. I also love to clean with Lemon what a great fresh fragrance to have in your home after you are done cleaning. 

I want to put some in a diffuser to see if I feel uplifted like so many others claim it can do. Aromatherapy use is on the rise and with so many lovely scents to choose from I think everyone can find their favorite that works for them. 

I am excited to be able to try yet another scent of Essential Oils. Learning how to implement them in your life is as easy as searching on your favorite search engine.

You can purchase Majestic Pure Lemon Oil here or on Amazon.

Learn German Online with Rocket German Premium - Modules 1 to 8 (120+ Learning Hours) Review + Giveaway

Learning different Languages is good for everyone, and even better if you need it for your job. I myself have taken 4 years of Spanish and 2 Years of French. I would love to learn Yiddish, as well as Hebrew someday, but recently I was offered the opportunity to learn German so I jumped right on board. I grew up knowing a few words in German, nothing fancy mind you.

I am currently learning German through Rocket Languages through the premium course which is worth 149.99. So far I have enjoyed my learning and because I am learning through conversation I am picking it up quicker then when I learned Spanish and French in Middle and High School.

I am really excited to see how this goes as I have a daughter with a learning disability. With a learning disability she does not have to take a second language but has asked me about learning a second language, so if this turns out well which it seems it will, I will be purchasing the Spanish Rocket Language for her unless of course she wants to learn French. Either is fine with me.

Who knows she may do so well that she would like to learn more languages. I am all for that and I could stand to brush up on Spanish and French myself.

You can purchase Rocket Language on their website and pick from many languages. They have 15 available right now including sign language which is something I think we all need to know.

One of MarksvilleandMe's readers will win a online course of Rocket German Premium with a value of 149.95. Giveaway starts today 2/19/2015 and ends 2/26/2015 at 12am Est. Open to USA residents. Enter below and make sure to follow MarksvilleandMe on Facebook so you can stay up to date on all of our giveaways.

WHY SHOULD YOU EXFOLIATE YOUR SKIN DURING WINTER?

You can read my original review here. Today I am hear to tell you why you should exfoliate your skin during the the Winter.  

During the winter my skin tends to get very dry and I hear almost everyone talking about how dry their skin is. Exfoliating with Exfolimate, a wash cloth, loofah or other natural sponge of choosing can help you sloth away those dead skin cells so that you can have healthier skin, as well as your skin being able to soak in your moisturizer that much better. 

I have a bleeding disorder so using a Loofah is not encouraged because I tend to bleed under my skin, but with Exfolimate I don't see that happening. In the past I have even had my skin burn after trying to exfoliate but again not with Exfolimate. This is something to look into if you have a bleeding disorder.

I like to use my Exfolimate about once a week in the shower, when I get out I pat dry then slather my body with a nice thick body cream. My skin thanks me and soon enough I am drifting off to sleep. 

You can watch a video about Exfolimate below.


You can purchase Exfolimate on Walgreens and on Amazon.


What does Exfolimate say about their product.
The cold weather tends to increase the dryness of the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin which can make the skin look dull and lack lustre. Using Exfolimate reveals newer fresher skin cells and helps give the skin a radiant glow.
 We tend to use more moisturisers during this time to help reduce dry skin. Exfolimate helps to increase the effectiveness of your moisturisers by removing unwanted dry dead skin cells. This creates a much more receptive skin surface for better absorption of moisturisers.
 It should be noted that the UV rays that damage the deeper layers of the skin do not change in winter. It is therefore important to keep using sunscreens during the winter months.

  Say G’day to ultra smooth skin and goodbye to dull, flakey skin. Introducing Exfolimate ™ - the ultimate tool to give you younger, fresher looking and feeling skin.

  Designed in Australia – Exfolimate is your handy mate to instant exfoliation and pore clarification without the fuss of scrubs and loofahs that only rub the surface of your skin without actually removing the problem.
  The secret is Exfolimate’s innovative micro-groove technology etched into the smooth metal edge. The micro-grooves gently lift and remove lingering skin cells and debris to unveil younger, fresher skin.

  Exfolimate is made to gently exfoliate the face and body and is precision designed for daily exfoliation and naturally skin clearing results.
  Exfolimate transforms the surface of your skin.

   Exfolimate is a new breakthrough in Skincare technology. Using patented
   Smooth edge micro groove technology, exfolimate gently releases dirt
   And oil embedded beneath your skin's surface. This radical deep-cleanse
   Dramatically improves tone and texture, while reducing pore size, oily
   Patches, dry areas and visible signs of ageing.
   Use for a minute daily for fast rejuvenation or as part of your full beauty
   Regime to transform your complexion. In addition to deeper cleansing,
   Exfolimate offers users enhanced exfoliation and superior moisturisation by
   Improving the absorption of Skincare products. It's safe for all skin types
   And leaves skin feeling softer and noticeably brighter and refreshed.
   Each Exfolimate box set comes in a two-piece Face and Body combination. The smaller tool easy exfoliates the face and neck, reaching those small crevices around the nose (and even behind the ears!) While the larger body tool quickly exfoliates your arms, legs, chest and back for spray-tan prep or removal.
• Provides deeper cleansing, enhanced exfoliation and superior moisturisation

Exposure to ultraviolet light, UVA or UVB, from sunlight accounts for 90% of the symptoms of premature skin aging including wrinkles.  It is important not to strip or dry skin but to gently exfoliate and remove impurities, excess oil and dead skin cells.  Skin must be hydrated and toned to bring back balance and radiance. That's where our new totally natural Sun*Si'Belle moisturizing sunscreen comes in. Non-greasy, non-whitening, light tinted formula provides chemical-free mineral UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 30, which protects skin from harmful sun rays and prevents sun damage and pigmentation.  Fruit extracts of Pineapple and Papaya provide mild exfoliation to shed dead skin cells and keep your skin fresh with rosy glow.  Sea Kelp provides hydration to your skin all day long.  Ellagic acid, an antioxidant found in raspberries and cranberries, protects against ultraviolet damage by blocking production of matrix metalloproteinase enzymes that break down collagen.  Highly nutritive Tomato is a rich source of Antioxidants like Tocopherols (Vitamin E), Lycopene, Omega 3,6,9, Copper, Iron, Manganese and Zinc, are essential for treatment and prevention of cutaneous signs of aging, and for reducing UV damage to the skin.

300 Lumens LED Ultra Bright Lantern Review

With my youngest daughter in Brownies this will be the year they go to camp, so we have been stocking up on camping gear which doubles as a Emergency Kit just in case. With this we added the 300 Lumens LED Ultra Bright Lantern. Once you put your batteries in you will see a light going on and off this is normal and will not kill your batteries fast. 

I had a steady low and high as well as a flashing or strobe setting. It can hang from a hook that is on the bottom or from the carrying handle on top. The only thing that could make this better is if it were a wind up lamp so that I know the batteries will always be good inside, or even solar would be awesome. Either way this makes a great addition to our camping/emergency gear. 

You can purchase the 300 Lumens LED Ultra Bright Lantern  on Amazon.
