Being that there are a lot of members in my family, and we all love to eat. The holidays can be a tad bit hectic preparing meals. We bake a lot of sweets too. The craziness usually starts in October and Lasts til New Years. We are huge Apple, and Pumpkin Anything Lovers. We prepare a lot of our own treats year round, but it feels once October comes, and the weather is chilly again baking is ideal. I crave to smell the spices.
Best Buy has a ton of kitchen appliances that make the Holidays less time consuming when it comes to creating those family favorite holiday treats.
If you are looking for new appliances to upgrade your kitchen for the Holidays check out the new Frigidaire FGIF3061NF. The Frigidaire can boil water on its burners in less than 2 minutes. What I also found interesting about this oven is it's a convection oven which circulates the air in the oven for quicker baking time. The induction stove top makes clean up faster with any spills.
Now if you are shopping for a double oven that is the size of a standard range check out the Whirlpool WGG555S0BS, is ideal for smaller kitchens that just don't have the space for a larger Double Oven, This oven does the same thing. It can cook two different things, at two different temperatures.

Ask yourself; What is something that you've accomplished that you didn't know you had it in you? Either physically, or mentally breaking the barrier. What else do you want to do now?
The thing about life, and breaking barriers is.. There will always be a barrier to break. To overcome, and to get farther on the path you are venturing through.
For me, it's my leg. I refuse to let my leg bum me out. I still go hiking, canoeing and camping even with an Open Reduction Internal Fixator in my leg with cadavers. I know working that muscle, and setting goals for myself puts me in that I Can Do Anything I Put My Mind To Mentality. That to me is a great mind set to have. Healthier eating habits are also a must. I think you have to have both to strive, and always give things a chance. Remind yourself, you are doing your best, and your best is to keep going. I remind myself all the time, it's one step at a time, and all those steps add up.
When I first read Erik Weihenmayer motivational story about the boundaries he breaks to show others you go after the things you want to accomplish in life. No matter what. I could relate to him, on that aspect you do it, you do whatever you want to do, and achieve it no matter what.
Erik is the only blind adventurer to climb to the seven highest summits in the world. His latest expedition? To kayak the Grand Canyon’s Colorado River! How amazing is that!? Erik reminds me that life is about achieving that goal, while never giving up, once you do make it, you keep at it, you make new goals. You go on that great adventure, because that's what life is about, all those adventures that do add up, that we all go on.

What made me excited to try Exuviance Illumination Duo with the Evening Complex lotion, and the Vitamin C+ Anti-Aging booster were the Mix of Vitamin C, and Aceta-C™.
Also all of the ingredients are 100% Active. Which is RARE for companies to not call something Ant-Aging and just throw a ridiculous amount of Water, and unneeded fillers.
Exuviance has Vitamins A, C, and E. Along with other botanical blend of PHA's (that gives it a green, fresh scent, is how I would like to explain it.) I could really feel, and see the positive benefits of the PHA's acids help restore my skin, while the vitamins did moisten them.
It's as easy as using a scoop (or you can use the squeeze bottle lid that comes with it too.) to measure out half a scoop of the Vitamin C powder, and mix it in with some of the Evening Complex for more of a Boost. It mixed easily, without any effort, or lumps. After mixing together it gave the Duo a almost pearl like glimmer. The Exuviance duo went on cool without any burning.
My overall impression of Exuviance Illumination Duo is I actually really do like it, and find it has a great purpose in my daily skin routine. My skin felt smoother, and I liked the shine from just using it for a week. I can't wait to see the full months effect. I think if you are looking for a botanical chemical peel duo that doesn't have the harmful skin burning, and peeling like some of the other things on the market, you should definitely try out Exuviance Illumination first.
Here is a photo of me after applying the Duo. I am 32 years old, and absolutely love Kits with Vitaimin C. I feel as if my skin is as smooth as my 3 year olds after applying the Kit. I also could see that my skins overall tone was more even. The Duo worked great on my skin.
About the Product
Exuviance Illumination Duo combines the power of our nighttime transformer, Exuviance Evening Restorative Complex, with the 100% pure active formulation of Exuviance Vitamin C+ Anti Aging Booster for a potent anti aging cocktail that combats the visible signs of aging.
Give your skin a beauty boost! Mix Vitamin C+ Anti Aging Booster with Exuviance Evening Restorative Complex before bed. The Vitamin C amps up the effects of the Evening Restorative Complex for a potent anti aging cocktail that acts as an evening transformer for all skin types.
- Evening Restorative Complex is clinically proven to improve overall skin texture, tone, and appearance
- 90% saw smoother skin after 4 weeks of using Exuviance Evening Restorative Complex
- Vitamin C+ Anti Aging Booster amps up the effects of the Evening Restorative Complex, helping to fade the look of dark spots while improving firmness and smoothing wrinkles
The powerful Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) Gluconolactone in Evening Restorative Complex decreases lines and wrinkles, evens skin tone and improves roughness and texture. Lactobionic Acid - a potent antioxidant - inhibits wrinkles from forming, plumps and firms the skin, and enhances clarity. This bionic blend of PHAs, along with botanicals and Vitamins A, C and E, delivers full-strength anti-aging benefits without drying or irritation, even on the most sensitive skin types.
The 100% pure active formulation of Vitamin C+ Anti Aging Booster contains Vitamin C, an essential co-factor in collagen synthesis, known for its power to strengthen skin's matrix, improve firmness and smooth wrinkles. Plus, we've added our patented super antioxidant, Aceta-C™, to enhance the natural antiaging effects of Vitamin C, amplifying its skin-protecting and pigment-evening effects. Together, they help fade the appearance of unwanted dark spots, and strengthen skin's defenses against future discoloration and signs of aging. (What does 100% actives mean? The formula does not contain water or fillers, etc. All the ingredients are benefit ingredients.)
Directions:
Each night, pump a small amount of Evening Restorative Complex into the palm of your hand and mix in a few shakes, or up to 1/2 scoop of Vitamin C+ Anti Aging Booster, just before application. Once mixed, gently smooth the mixture over a cleansed face and neck. Use less powder if skin feels sensitive. Do not exceed 5 shakes or 1/2 scoop per use. Tap bottle to loosen powder when needed.
