October Love Lula Picks


I'm still part of the LoveLula blogger program so I thought I'd dip my toes back into reviews by picking the following.

This month I'm all about vitamins and minerals... specifically Magnesium. My son is a terrible sleeper and it was suggested to me that both him and I needed to up our magnesium intake. For me this comes in the form of TerraNova Magnesium Calcium 2:1 capsules and for Minor, KIKI Health Magnesium Oil Spray. Minor still feeds from me very regularly so it's important for me to keep my own levels up as all the nutrients in me go first and foremost to my milk which often leaves me depleted. This is another reason for picking TerraNova Prenatal Multivitamins. While I'm not prenatal, these supplements have everything my body needs to keep ticking along nicely.

I've been using these supplements daily for almost 4 weeks now and lets be honest, its a hard one to review because often it's not until you stop taking them that you feel a result.
However, I am noticing that my energy levels are improving/have improved. I feel like I have more juice in the tank and that I can do more with my day than I was before. It's a hard one to explain but I do feel more with it, like my brain is in the right gear (most of the time!).

I'd like to say that the Oil Spray has worked miracle on my son but alas, I don't think that it's made a difference at all. I'll continue to use it though, as it gives us a change to do a bit of baby massage which we both enjoy. It does leave a bit of a weird salty feel to the skin after use but goes after washing hands.

My last pick is a Facial Cleansing Gel from Acure. I love this brand and I used to order from the US, so I'm pleased to see LoveLula has started stocking them. I was after a face wash for the morning when I prefer something quick that I can use in the shower. This gel fits the brief perfectly; you need a tiny smidge to lather up the face so it'll last yonks (tick), it smells super citrusy (tick), and washes away the overnight sheen without drying (tick). Big win for me and I highly recommend it.

Now I've tried to find links to both the TerraNova capsules and I can't see them on the LoveLula site at all. Maybe this means they no longer stock them or perhaps they are currently out of stock. I'm awaiting confirmation and will update when I know more.

What have you been enjoying this month?
