Westin Colonnade

Westin Colonnade - Coral Gables, FL

Wedding Venue

I had my wedding reception at the Westin Colonnade in Coral Gables, FL. It was a December wedding which made for beautiful holiday decoration to be widely visible throughout the hotel. The process of booking this venue was extremely easy. I met with their wedding coordinator, Patricia, and she was very professional and knowledgeable. She thought of details that never even crossed my mind. Patricia has a list of the vendors the hotel has had favorable experiences with in the past. This made booking all of the items that were not included very smooth. My husband and I were given an overnight stay at their Presidential suite. The suite had two floors and had two bathrooms and a dining area. The suite has everything you need to have your bridal party get ready at. The view from the room is beautiful. You can see for miles.

Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum

Valentia Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum

I began using the Clear Lift Revitalizing Serum from Valentia. I have noticed that the fine lines that I have around my eye area have diminished. I also applied it to my knee area where I have a scar from an injury. I have noticed that the skin area has gotten tighter which in turn has improved the appearance of the scar. I would definitely recommend this product if you're looking to have a tighter and more even toned skin. Check out more product details in the links below:

Valentia Royal Rose Hydrating Serum

Valentia Royal Rose Hydrating Serum

I received samples of Valentia's Ultra Plumping Hydration Mask and True Glow Eye Cream through Brandbacker for review purposes. The opinions below are my own.

The first thing I noticed when I first applied the hydrating serum was how lightweight it is! I've used plenty of serums in the past but they all leave my face bogged down since they are of a heavy consistency. The results are very favorable - soft skin. I mean really soft skin! For optimal results, I made sure to use it at night after I had deeply cleansed my skin of makeup and normal oil accumulated throughout the day. I have not experienced any breakouts as I've experienced in the past.

The benefits I've seen are:

- Moisturized skin

- Soft skin versus my normal dry skin

- Smooth skin tone & texture

- Radiant glow (noticed it in pics I took this weekend)

Cottonelle

Cottonelle Fresh Care

I received a complimentary sample of this product. The review below is my own opinion.

I cannot live without this product. I'll start with that. If you want a product that gives you a clean feeling every time, this is it. It has ripples which ensure a clean wipe every time. I prefer these cloths over having to use baby products or other wipes which don't really get the job done.

Valentia Ultra Plumping Hydration Mask & True Glow Eye Cream

I received samples of Valentia's Ultra Plumping Hydration Mask and True Glow Eye Cream through Brandbacker for review purposes. The opinions below are my own.

 

 

The first product I tried was Valentia Ultra Plumping Hydration Mask. I have been using it for four days now. I have noticed that my skin is no longer dry and flaky. It feels smooth and even all throughout. The item feels great when applied because it goes on smooth and does not leave any residue on your face.

The second product was Valentia True Glow Eye Cream. This product application is so simple. You simply spray a bit on your hand and apply evenly around the eye area. It is known to help lock in moisture, repair and tighten skin for a youthful looking glow around the eye area. I have noticed that my eye area is no longer dry and puffy. My eye area skin definitely looks moisturized.

Oz Naturals Super Youth Eye Gel

 

OZ Naturals Super Youth Eye Gel

 

I had the opportunity to review this eye gel as I received the item complimentary through BrandBacker. The opinions expressed are my own.

 

Before trying the product, I read up on it. It made ALLURE Magazine's Best in Beauty Eye Gel. The gel is known to treat every major eye concern including: dark circles, puffiness & wrinkles. I've been using the eye gel for a little over a week now. I have definitely seen major improvements with dark circles (major problem for me). It seems to give you a glow and definitely de-puffs your eye area. The item does not have any strong scents or perfumes. I have very fine wrinkles to the sides of my eyes (crows feet) and I have seen them vanish. I would definitely recommend that you try this product. What do you have to lose? Well, besides wrinkles, dark circles and puffiness ;)

Oz Naturals Ocean Mineral Facial Cleanser

The moment I tried the product, I knew that I was dealing with a quality product. This product seems like it came straight out of a spa. I only used a dot of it and it went a long way. My skin felt deeply cleansed and hydrated at the same time. I did rinse it relatively quickly so it wouldn't sit on my face and dry it. My husband used it as shaving cream and he loved how refreshed it left his skin. I definitely recommend the product and the brand for that matter!

 

Note: I received this product for free for review purposes. The opinion is my own.
