iherb

iherb contacted me with an offer I couldn’t resist. A $50 shopping spree for me and a $50 shopping spree for one of my readers. Shopping sprees – yes please!! Now what is iherb again?

I soon found out that it’s an online reseller that carries close to 18,000 natural products, including vitamins, herbal supplements, skincare products, grocery items and more. This site is perfect for those living a healthy life style, especially if you have trouble finding specific items locally. The website isn’t fancy, but it’s very well organized. They carry many products and brands (including many that I buy and use frequently) at competitive prices with free shipping for orders over $40.00.

The site also offers a non-commercial encyclopedia of nutritional and herbal supplements. And, the coolest part is that you can even type a symptom into the search engine, say Cold Sores or Urinary Tract Infection and the natural products to prevent or help with these type of problems or symptoms come right up.

So what did I get on my shopping spree?

Nativas Naturals Trail Power – Raw Antioxidant Trail Mix (goji, golden, and mulberries)

Woodstock Farms Organic Mango Slices

Source Natural s Daily Essential Enzymes

JASON Ester-C Creme

I recently read in one of the health/fitness magazines I get that vitamin c is one of the best things to use on your face for anti-aging so I was super excited to find this product on iherb. I’ve already started using it by applying it before I go to bed at night. I love the smell and the creaminess of this moisturizer. Here’s to hoping it brightens my face and gets rid of all my wrinkles- YES, I have wrinkles!?! Word of advice- wear sunscreen and stay out of the tanning beds. I’m regretting what I did in my high school days now.

Of course, I’ve already dug into the dried mango slices and the Trail Power – both of which are things I’ve had before and love.
