Montlhy iHerb Haul | Health, Beauty, Vitamins, Superfoods, Essential Oil!




Happy Friday, everyone!

Welcome to another haul! This haul includes some health and beauty products. My favourite combo!

Some of this month's purchases are staples in my home and a few are new to me.

I'll link to each item in the name of each product incase you want to read more about any of the items.

Grocery


Madre Labs CocoCeps / $10.95
I use this organic dark chocolate, sugar-free cocoa powder in my daily protein shake. It's a great source of natural energy without the jitters. It has healthy immune boosting cordyceps & reishi mushrooms in it. I have an aversion to eating mushrooms but they are so healthy that I wish I could eat them, this cocoa powder allows me to get their benefits. The taste is delicious too and you don't taste any trace of mushrooms.

Now Foods Raw Almond Flour 10oz / $6.38
I try to eat healthy and low carb, so I don't bake with regular flour anymore. I use this healthy low-carb almond flour as a substitute in all my recipes. It's also gluten-free and a source of healthy fatty acids. It tastes great in all my recipes and makes them so much healthier. This also comes in a 22 oz bag. 


Supplements


Now Foods 5-HTP 50mg 90 caps / $11.46
This product is great for mood and sleep. I use it for sleep. I take one or two of these when I can't sleep and it usually works to put me to sleep. It's also supposed to help control weight by controlling cravings.

MD Formulas BioAstin Supreme Hawaiian Astaxanthin 60 caps / $20.99
This was the daily deal when I placed my order so I just had to get it. I've taken Astaxanthin before but not this brand. If I notice any difference once I start taking it, I'll do a review on it. BioAstin Astaxanthin is supposed to be the most powerful natural antioxidant known. It's said to help with joint & tendon health, skin health, eye & brain health, and recovery after exercise. It says that results are usually seen within 2-6 weeks of daily use. This product is gluten-free, non- GMO , and 100% Vegan.


Beauty


Real Techniques Powder Brush / $9.99
I've wanted to add this Real Techniques powder brush to my brush collection for quite some time. She's finally mine! I love Real Techniques, they make great products and they are cruelty-free! Review to come on this brush!

Now Foods 100% Pure Lavender Essential Oil 30ml / $7.94
I love to use this in skincare and for aromatherapy. I use it in my bath with some Epsom salts for a relaxing spa-like bath. I also add some to my diffuser, or put some on a cotton pad and put it beside my pillow before bed to help me unwind. I also make my own DIY spray using this oil. It can also be used in skincare with carrier oils.

Prices shown are current prices and could change.

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I purchased this month.

I've been shopping with iHerb for too many years to count. They have the best selection of natural health and beauty products at the best prices (they even sell ELF cosmetics). I paid a flat rate of $2.50 USD shipping for this whole order!

If you are vegan, gluten-free or only shop cruelty-free etc. you can actually type any of those terms into their search bar while shopping and it will only show you items that fit into that category. It's a very helpful tool.

You can get $5 off your first order by clicking HERE. (no minimum purchase required). If you do shop on iHerb don't forget to check the links at the top of the page for daily specials, trials, and other great deals!

Happy shopping!

Montlhy iHerb Haul: May- Health, Vitamins, Superfoods, and Beauty!


This month's iHerb haul is a small one but a good one! They were having a great sale, so I had to stock up on a few items.

Here is a link to last months iHerb haul if you'd like to see what I purchased in April.


Here is what I scored:

- Paradise Herbs, Orac-Energy, Earth's Blend, One Daily Superfood, Multivitamin with Iron x2- wow, that's a mouthful! But, this multivitamin is chocked full of great ingredients. It's a superfood multivitamin with whole-food goodness, vitamins, minerals, probiotic, and herbs. It's also a best of supplements award winner. And, you only need to take one per day! Click here for more info. (note: they also have a formula without iron). I paid $14.99 per bottle.

I'm hoping these will fill in my nutritional gaps and give me some much-needed energy!

From iHerb: "Based on our original ORAC-Energy Green Formula, just one vegetarian capsule provides the antioxidant power of over 7 servings of fruits and vegetables (4000 + ORAC) while supporting sustained energy, focus, vitality, immunity, and well-being."

- Nature's way, Chelated Iron, 18mg- I need extra iron in my diet and chelated is the way to go. This is an inexpensive way to add the extra iron that I need. I paid only $5.98 for 100 caps.

- Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponges, 2 pack- iHerb also sells this product as a single but I went for the two pack to save a little money. I already know that I love this makeup sponge. iHerb often offers sales, like 20% off beauty products and that's a great time to stock up! This was $10.99 for two.

Paradise Herbs, Once Daily Superfood Multivitamin

    Nature's Way, Chelated Iron                                              Real Techniques Beauty Sponge

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I purchased this month.

If you've never shopped at iHerb I highly recommend them for their huge product selection from health to beauty products and everything in between.

Their international shipping rates are so low. I usually pay a flat rate of $4 USD to Canada.

They also have the best selection of vegan, vegetarian, and cruelty-free products.

*You can get $5 off your first order by using this link or entering coupon code AGU725 during checkout.

Don't forget to check the top iHerb's page for specials, trials, and daily deals!

As always, check with your health care provider before beginning any new supplements.

Happy shopping!!
