Hello Lovelies,
I am back again tonight with another review. I am reviewing InstaNatural's Essential Oils in both Lavender and Peppermint. While this review was also for the Lemon Essential Oil which I never received from Amazon. However I will continue to do the review for the two oils that I did receive. The oils were packaged securely and wrapped in bubble wrap and were delivered quickly.The oils arrived in HUGE amber glass bottles with eye droppers to help dispense the oil.They were also had additional plastic seal around the top of the eye droppers to prevent the bottles accidentally opening up during shipment. Needless to say when I opened the box I got a good whiff of the essential oils. While neither had leaked, I can only assume that the scents were coming from where the droppers met the cap allowed for the scent to escape. I haven't noticed that there is an issue of evaporation however I do store them in my laundry room so the smell doesn't become overly powerful for Mr Dreadful's super sniffer. This is the first time I have ever used peppermint oil and I am extremely pleased with it. Not only is it my favorite scent out of the two, it does wonders for migraines/headaches, but it is also good for decongestion, keeping away spiders (which is a bonus)and I have also added it to my homemade fabric softener sheets to give my clothes a nice minty scent. The lavender oil also is good for headaches and tension which does happen more than I would like with having three kids. I love adding a couple of drops to my bath to help me relax at night and even a drop on the pillows for a restful sleep. I am super pleased with this oils, I really wished that I had gotten the lemon as well. So I would order from InstaNatural again.
If you would like to pick up your own bottles of Peppermint or Lavender Essential oils from InstaNatural you can do so on Amazon. Both the Lavender Oil and the Peppermint Oil are $39.95 however they are both on sale for $19.97. I hope that you enjoyed this installment of What's the Deal Dreadful, until next time lovelies!

What's the Deal Dreadful? Review of Aria Starr Beauty Super Retinol Serum
Hello Lovelies,
I am back with the final review of the day. For the final review of the day I am reviewing Aria Starr Beauty's Super Retinol Advanced Aging Serum. I know a lot of people claim that this is the product that you need to have when you are in your 30s. However I firmly believe that it is never too late or too early to start taking care of your skin. If you haven't tried retinol before you need to right now. It is like everything wrapped up into one. Retinol not only takes care of fine lines and wrinkles, it also helps control nasty adult acne and even over all skin health. This product arrived quickly and was well packaged. The serum itself was in a large blue glass bottle with a pump like applicator for easy application. The serum is colorless, scentless and has the consistency of watery gel. It applies easily and dries quickly without leaving a sticky or greasy residue afterwards. One pump is more than enough to cover my face and my neck. However I used two pumps to cover not only my face and my neck but also my hands (which will show age first) and then my shoulders as well. I have been using this twice a day, once in the morning and then in the evening. I wash my face first, then I apply a toner and next I apply this serum. Once the serum is dry I apply my moisturizer. My skin condition has improved greatly. Not only do I not need as much moisturizer since my skin seems more hydrated, but skin looks more refreshed and has a lovely glow about it. I am super pleased with this product.
If you would like to pick up your own bottle of Aria Starr Beauty's Super Retinol Serum you can do so on Amazon. It is $99.95 however it is currently on sale for $17.95. I hope that you enjoyed this installment of What's the Deal Dreadful, until next time lovelies!

What's the Deal Dreadful? Review of Majestic Bombay's Precision Eyelash Curler
Hello Lovelies,
I am back again with another review. Today I am reviewing Majestic Bombay's Precision Eyelash Curler. I constantly struggle with my lashes. I have tried every type of mascara, curler and even false lashes in order to get nice lashes. My lashes are short and stick straight out without any hint of a curl whatsoever. I have tried different kinds of curlers but most of them are either too small for my eye or they pinch and grab which isn't desirable. So needless to say when I tried this curler I was expecting the same results. However I was super pleased when I didn't have either issue. The curler is large enough to accommodate curling my lashes all at one time and it doesn't pinch or pull which is simply fantastic. The curler itself looks very sleek and fashionable with a black and pink color combination and it comes with no one but two refill pads. After applying my eye makeup and curl each lash for 10-15 seconds and then apply a couple coats of mascara. The curl lasts throughout the day. At the end of the week I take a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol and wipe off the top and the pad of the curler to make sure that everything is clean and sanitary. The only thing that I wish was different was that I wished that the thumb handle was a little bit larger but other than that this is a wonderful curler.
If you would like to pick up your own Precision Eyelash Curler you can do so on Amazon. It is $31.00 however it is currently on sale for $12.99. I hope that you enjoyed this installment of What's the Deal Dreadful, until next time lovelies!

What's the Deal Dreadful? Review of YalMeh Foundation Brush
Hello Lovelies!
I am back again this time I am reviewing YalMeh's Foundation Brush. As a true makeup addict, I can never have enough makeup brushes until it is time for their weekly washing. Then I have way too many. So when I had the opportunity to review the Yalmeh Foundation brush I jumped at the opportunity. It has a nice large handle, similar to the same thickness as the Morphe makeup brushes I have, which makes it easy to grip and control when either applying foundation around your nose or contouring. The bristles are soft yet firm which gives a nice even control of your foundation.The brush is extremely well made and there is no issue of shedding "fibers" that some other brushes have which can ruin your makeup (especially if it is for foundation) and the pointed tip makes it so easy to apply foundation around your nose that other brushes have an issue with. There was also no issue of shedding when I wash the brush so that is also a big plus and with the pointed tip you can not only use it for your foundation, it is excellent for contouring as well. All in all I really liked this brush and I reach for it on a regular basis.
If you would like to pick up your own YalMeh Foundation Brush you can do so on Amazon. It is $29.99 however it is currently on sale for $11.95 . Hope you enjoyed this installment of What's the Deal Dreadul, until next time lovelies!

What's the Deal Dreadful? Review of Yalmeh Glorifying Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion
Hello Lovelies,
I am back again with another review. This time I am reviewing Yalmeh Glorifying Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion. I did receive this product in return for an honest review. All opinions are my own. I really love this cream . It has a slight floral/citrus scent to it. It is faint and delicate and not overpowering which is fantastic in case you have people in your household that are sensitive to smells. It has a nice thick and creamy consistency and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue which means that it fine to apply makeup over. According to the directions you are supposed to put a dime sized amount each time you apply it. My skin drank this moisturizer up so I found myself using more than what was directed in order do my face and neck. I have noticed a difference in the two brown spots I have on either side of my face which appear much lighter. I have also noticed that it has helped with brightening around my eyes and makes my skin much softer and smoother. The only thing that I would change is that I wish the bottle was larger however with the bottle will last for about a month of use for me. So it is well worth it.
If you would like to pick up Yalmeh Glorifying Vitamin C Moisturizing Lotion for yourself you can do so at Amazon for 75.95 however it is currently on sale for $17.95 which is a steal! I hope that you enjoyed this version of What's the Deal Dreadful and be sure to keep an eye out for more reviews.

What's the Deal Dreadful? Review of Azure Naturals Ultimate Vitamin C Sweet Orange Infused Organic Moisturizer
*Press Sample*
Hello Lovelies!
I am back again with another installment of What's the Deal Dreadful. I have a lot of these coming up since I am doing a lot of reviews lately however I will be making sure to get my looks and manis in as well . ^_~
Today I am doing a review of Azure Naturals Ultimae Vitamin C Sweet Orange Infused Organic Moisturizer. Now I did received this product in return for an honest review and I would not endorse anything that I wouldn't use myself. With that being said, I am super pleased with this product. It is NEVER to early or late to start moisturizing your face will thank you for it. Always do a test patch first before applying anything to check for any possible allergies that you may have.
The first thing that I noticed when I applied the moisturizer was the textures. I was both rich and creamy and it absorbed quickly without leaving an greasy feeling after applying it. There was a nice light scent of oranges which wasn't overpowering that didn't have an overly artifical smell that some cleansers or beauty product can have. Mr Dreadful has a horribly sensitive nose and there were no complaints from him. He even stated that he liked the smell which was an added bonus.
The moisturizer can be applied twice a day both at night and in the morning. Since it is light and absorbs quickly there is no issue with applying makeup or making your face greasy and ruining you makeup look. Because we all know that I can't have that .Right after applying it is could feel my skin tightening and I have noticed a difference in my skin's appearance and overall health. A little goes a long way so this bottle is going to last awhile. I look forward to seeing the end results when I am done with it.
You can purchase Azure Naturals Ultimate Vitamin C Sweet Orange Infused Organic Moisturizer from Amazon for the price of $47.95 but it is currently on sale for $17.95. I hope that you have enjoyed this installment of What's the Deal Dreadful! Be sure to follow me on all of my social media which are listed below. And until next time lovelies be sure to moisturize!

What the Deal Dreadful? Review of Premium Argan 100% Organic Pure Moroccan Argan Oil
*Press*
Hello Lovelies!
I am back today with a review! I was asked to review Premium Argan 100% Organic Pure Moroccan Argan Oil and I was really excited for the opportunity. I have been wanting to branch out and review other beauty, fashion and health items for 2015 I figured I would go ahead and start early!
I had heard how beneficial Argan Oil was for hair and I really wanted to give it a try since I have really baby fine straight hair and I have always wanted super shiny hair like in the hair commericals. My hair also gets a lot of damage from the fact that I am constantly coloring it and even using various tools of hair torture on it (flat irons, curling irons, etc..)
I received a full size bottle 2oz (60ml) very quickly and it was well packaged and arrived without a problem which is always a possibility during this hellish mail time of the year. There was a mention of a light nutty smell to the oil on Amazon, but I didn't notice a distinct smell. To be honest it didn't have a smell that I could tell, which was a bonus for Mr Dreadful since he has a sensitive sniffer.
The first thing that I tried the Argan oil on was my hair. As I mentioned before it is baby fine, straight as a board and super processed. After I got out of the shower I put some oil in my hands and then I rubbed them together to warm the oil up (as per the directions) and the worked the oil in my hair starting from the tips and then up to my scalp. Now I learned the first day that a little goes a LONG way. I applied too much the first time (I used an entire dropper full) and it was too much for my hair to absorb and it looked greasy. However, the next time I applied much less, and my hair absorbed it all without looking greasy. After a couple of days I noticed that my hair was much softer, shinier and more manageable.
The bottle also mentioned that it was good on dry skin patches and it often applied on feet and on the cuticles. I won't lie my feet are horribly dry and can be quite rough in the winter. After the shower I applied the Argan Oil to Feet and then placed socks over my feet for the rest of the day. It has really made all the difference. I don't feel like I am a strange human dinosaur hybrid anymore with my super rough and dry feet. They are much softer! My cuticles are also a wreck but I have noticed a considerable difference with me applying the Argan oil a couple of times a day to my cuticles and working it in. Mr Dreadful is a bath junkie like I am and he has stolen it a couple of times in to add a few drops into his bath and it does give an extra moisturizing boost.
Now to what you have been waiting for.. on to the ratings!
Packaging: 9.5 out of 10 bats
The Uni Premium Argan 100% Organic Pure Moroccan Argan Oil comes in a nice thick glass bottle with a long glass dropper for a top. It makes it easy to control the amount that you want to apply.
Efficiency: 9.5 out of 10 bats
I noticed a huge difference in my skin and my hair after using it a couple of days.
Scent: 9.7 out of 10 bats
There is NO scent that I can detect with my nose which is a bonus for those of you with a sensitive sniffer in your household.
Affordability: 9.7 out of 10 bats
The price is 15.99 with Free Shipping for a 2oz (60ml) bottle. A little goes a long way and I still have plenty with a family of five using it.

Overall thoughts and impressions, I really like the product. I enjoyed the fact that there is a generous amount of oil to apply not only to my hair but also use it in the bath and with dry skin treatments. The Dreadful family enjoyed the fact that there was really no scent that we would pick up so there was no complaints that the smell was too strong or overpowering. It is extremely affordable for all the various uses we get out of it. Would we purchase this after we ran out of it? Yes, without a doubt. While I did receive this product for consideration to review, all thoughts are my own and I only recommend products that I would personally use and let my family use. Until next time lovelis!
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
