Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil Giveaway

Posted on by

Everyone knows I’m a huge fan of Tropical Traditions. One of my favorite breakfast is this delicious fruit smoothie I make using their coconut oil. Pineapple-Blackberry Coconut Smoothie.

Several months ago, I gave away a quart of their coconut oil to one lucky winner, and was super excited about that. But today, I’ve got an even better deal for you!


Gold Label Organic Virgin Coconut Oil

Win 1 gallon of Gold Label
Virgin Coconut Oil!

Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil.
Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer. You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website:

What is Virgin Coconut Oil? You can also watch the video they produced about Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil:

Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the advantages of buying coconut oil online.
Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.

The Giveaway

Tropical Traditions is giving one lucky reader of Angel’s Homestead a GALLON of their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil. Open to US and Canadian Residents. Ends 6/24/12, at 12 midnight EST. Good Luck!

Remember that review I did a couple of weeks ago of Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil?

Here is a recap:

Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil Review

Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil is produced by hand and uses a wet-milling process to extract the oil from fresh coconuts. Their coconut oil is one of the best on the market with the highest amount of antioxidants. The oil is hand-made by and benefits families in the Philippines, where the coconuts are found. The coconut trees are certified organic according to strict USDA standards.

Using Tropical Traditions coconut oil in cooking imparts a delightfully light taste of coconut. Check out the yummy Blueberry Muffins I made with it recently. There are so many great uses for coconut oil, check them out is this video.

Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil Review

Posted on by

I’ve heard so many great things about Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil in blogland, that I couldn’t wait to try it out for myself. So you can imagine how thrilled I was when Tropical Traditions was kind enough to send me a quart sample of their Coconut Oil. When it arrived I opened the jar to take a whiff, and was hit by the wonderfully delicate smell of coconut. Of course I had to have a taste, and it was pure deliciousness. I couldn’t wait to cook with it. So far I’ve used it in stir-fries, pancakes, muffins, smoothies, just about everything and am hooked.

Oxy Clinical Review and Giveaway

Posted on by
This Giveaway Is Now Closed.
Having already raised 3 children to adulthood and with two teens still at home, you can rest assured that I have seen my share of acne breakouts. Plus, since I hit my 30′s, I’ve been dealing with acne myself! So, when we were given the opportunity to try the Oxy Clinical Acne Solutionspack and be a part of the Oxy School-Ready Challenge, I jumped at the chance.OXY’s focus on the “science behind skincare” has led to the creation of their new Clinical System which incorporates patented technologies with prescription-strength ingredients to ensure a quick and discrete solution to acne. OXY Clinical delivers a new level of treatment technology in a system that can be applied on a daily basis in your home. Each of the system’s three treatments contains an advanced delivery system technology that helps the product work continuously over time. This allows OXY Clinical to provide clinical results without a prescription while remaining gentle enough for every day use and it won’t over dry skin.

The OXY Clinical Acne Solutions pack consists of a Clearing Treatment, Advanced Face Wash and Hydrating Therapy. All OXY Clinical products contain an advanced delivery system technology that helps the product to work continuously over time. And, the OXY® Clinical Clearing Treatment has been proven to kill 99% of acne causing bacteria in 8 hours, so it starts working right away.

My Thoughts: The products really worked! I was worried at first on how mine and my daughters skin would react to the products. We both have sensitive skin, so of course I was a little nervous. And while after the first treatment, our acne did seem to get a bit worse, we hung in there and by the second day, we could see an improvement! Our acne actually seemed smaller and less red. We noticed that our skin seemed softer and smoother too. By day five, our acne was completely gone! We are believers in this product now and will continue to use it. The price is very reasonable to, so we wont go broke trying to keep it in stock in our medicine cabinet.
*Special Note: These products are not recommended if you have very sensitive skin.

Want a chance to try this awesome skin care pack yourself? The Makers of OXY Clinical have generously allowed me to give away one OXY Clinical Acne Solutions Pack (ARV $14.99) to one of my readers.

Good Luck and thanks for entering!
