For this review I received 2 products to try out for all of you. Before I get started I want to tell you all that I have sensitive skin. Furthermore, my skin has been dry the past few months due to sun exposure and beach life. Summer always dries out my skin!!!
The Capt’n Coconut – Coconut Body Balm is honestly the BEST body balm that I’ve ever used. Seriously, the BEST. You massage the body balm all over your body for deep moisturizing and skin repair. It’s excellent for dry skin, sensitive – irritated skin, used as a make-up remover, diaper rash cream, post-shaving balm, scalp moisturizer, etc.
Nourishing and Hydrating Ingredients: Organic coconut oil, vitamin E oil, jojoba oil, vanilla and coconut essential oils.
I’ve been applying the Coconut Body Balm all over my arms, legs and feet twice a day for the past 8 days. I’ve been out in the sun a lot this year (gardening, walking the beach, yard work, hiking, swimming pool, etc) and my skin had become very dry. At times it was itchy from being so dry! I was using all kinds of different body lotions and nothing was fixing the problem. Well, until I started using Capt’n Coconut – Coconut Body Balm! In just 8 days my skin looks 80% better! It looks more moisturized, feels smoothing, appears younger looking and the itching has totally disappeared! Yay!
My husband decided to give it a try too. He has extremely dry knees and elbows (the only areas on his body that get really dry). He started massaging it into those areas twice a day. After a week his skin looked and felt better too. Like me, he was equally impressed with the body balm.
The Coconut Body Balm smells really nice. The fragrance smells like a tropical coconut but it’s light. Nothing over-powering at all. You can definitely layer your favorite fragrances on top with no problem. The balm is soft and creamy. It absorbs quickly into your skin leaving no sticky residue behind. I was able to get dressed immediately after applying it. It’s a really FANTASTIC body balm!
Capt’n Coconut Roll-On Vacation is the second product that I had the opportunity to try. If you’ve been reading this blog for the past 15 years you’ll already know that I suffer with chronic pain from a rare genetic disease called Porphyria. I live with pain 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and have done so for 30+ years. Anyway, this Roll-On Vacation is a signature oil-based fragrance infused with coconut and vanilla botanicals and 50 MG of CBD to moisturize, relieve pain, and smell divine at the same time.
I’ve been using it on my left wrist and hand when my post-operative nerve pain acts up. I’ve been using it on my temples and the back of my neck when a headache flairs up. Five years ago I had my left knee replaced and that is always aching me so I apply it there too. It has a light coconut and vanilla fragrance to it. The 50 MG of CBD can help to alleviate pain. When I talk about pain relieving properties think of aches and pains…not major pain. I’m enjoying this product too!

I’m one of those girls who loves make-up, skincare products, and fashion. I’m a girly-girl through and through. I have dozens and dozens of beauty products in my bathroom and sitting on my vanity. It’s always fun to try out new products…especially ones that are …
As I’ve gotten older my lashes have thinned down, lost their ability to curl naturally, and have become shorter in length. The appearance of eyelashes are practically non-existant unless I wear mascara. I’m not a heavy make-up wearer, but I do understand the importance of wearing eye make-up. Your eyes are the first thing people see when having a conversation with you.

For decades I’ve searched for the perfect mascara. I’ve tried dozens of different brands and formulations over the years. Some have been inexpensive while others more on the pricey side. Some I’ve liked and others I’ve hated. None pleased me 100% until now.
A few weeks ago a friend told me about Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara by Tarte. Like me, she has sensitive eyes and had a hard time finding a mascara that didn’t irritate her eyes. If you’re unfamiliar with Tarte, they make high-performance natural cosmetics. Their beauty products are cruelty-free and vegan.
Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara gives you 24-hour wear, 24-hour smudge-proof, 24-hour flake-free, it’s vegan, and comes with a 360 degree MagniLash Wand. It’s buildable…you can put on a little bit for a natural daytime look or layer it on for a date night out on the town.
To Use: Place the brush at the base of your lashes. Wiggle and pull it upward through the tip. Layer for eye-opening results.
I decided to give it a try and purchased a 4-pack which is a year’s supply of mascara. That’s right ladies, you should be changing out your mascara every 3 months! Don’t risk infection or your eye health by using old mascara! After 3 months, pitch out your mascara…no matter how much is still left in the tube!
The first thing I noticed was the adorable packaging that it came in! The tubes look very high-end and classy! Next, the wand. Oh my gosh, it just glides through your lashes…even sparse lashes like mine! One dip into the tube was enough mascara to do both the upper and lower lashes of one eye. Dip a second time and that was enough for my second eye. I didn’t have to do repeated dips into the tube to get exactly the amount of mascara that I needed for a daytime look.
When I wanted a heavier look (for date night out with my husband) or going out with the girls…I did build-up the look by dipping into the tube 2-3 times. I experienced no clumping, strings, or flaking. NONE. Just after the first use I was impressed and the more I’ve used the product…the more impressed I became!
Initially I was going to keep all 4 tubes for myself, but decided to share with my mom and grandmother. They too have sensitive eyes and I knew they would appreciate a high-end mascara. Since giving them one they’ve been wearing it and raving about it too! It’s unlike any other mascara that I’ve ever tried!
Ladies…there’s no need to run around paying $40+ for a tube of designer mascara! You can get beautiful results at an affordable price point with Tarte’s Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara. I was able to find it on sale and got the 4-pack which contained 4 full-size tubes for $40.00 making it $10.00 per tube! Yes, you read that correctly!
