The holidays can really put a strain on your body. Are you getting enough sleep? Are you taking care of your skin? Is your hair healthy? What about oral health? The holidays are such a busy time for adults and children that it is so easy to overlook those things that keep us healthy and feeling great. Thankfully, from sun up to sun down, Healthy Essentials has you covered.
This is part of the HEALTHY ESSENTIALS 2014 program by Johnson & Johnson Consumer Companies, Inc. and The Motherhood, who sent me a box of products and compensated me for my time. Opinions, experiences, and photos shared here are all my own and I hope you enjoy them!
Choosing products from Healthy Essentials to feel and look great
There are a number of products that I have been using to make me feel better about my health and skin. It is such a crazy time for me. The kids are so busy with school, I am doing a lot of VA work, and my blog is taking up a ton of my time. In addition, my health has not been great. Being able to rely on products from Healthy Essentials has been a huge help to me! Below you will find some of those products that I love and recommend to you.
I start each morning with Aveeno Positively Radiant Targeted Tone Corrector. This is one product that I use simply because, well, I am getting old. Yep, I said it. I am aging. This product helps to improve my skin’s appearance and uneven tone. Since it is oil free, noncomedogenic, and nonirritating, I can use it without worry about how my skin will react.
When I put on my makeup, something I try to do to boost my mood daily, I like to use a few simple products. I am not a huge makeup person but a few chosen items make me feel great. Every morning I put on Neutrogena Healthy Volume Mascara, waterproof. This is a great product! It is formulated with olive oil that penetrates and helps plump the core of each and every lash. What this means is 400% fuller, beautifully conditioned lashes. Yep, I like that!
After my morning coffee, I brush my teeth. I can’t do it before drinking that cup because then my beloved coffee would taste awful. It’s the truth. Instead, I brush after and then follow up with Listerine Ultraclean Mouthwash and Listerine Ultraclean Dental Floss. Both of these products keep my mouth feeling great. They remove plaque and kill germs. No one wants bad breath so these products are wonderful.
About this time, my girls are both getting out of bed. Joley has to head to school and Jemma is ready to start her day with me. We have a daily routine with them as well. My girls both take a shower at night and then head to bed. What this means is some tangles the next morning. Jemma especially has problems with tangles because her hair is naturally curly… poor kid! I have been using the same product on them for months and months; Johnson’s No More Tangles Dentangling Spray. It’s NO MORE TEARS formula ensures that we can get rid of those tangles with smiles.
Before bed, I always take a shower. Yes, I am a night shower-taker. I like to go to bed feeling clean! The newest product I have been using at bedtime is absolutely amazing. It is Clean & Clear Night Relaxing Deep Cleaning Face Wash. I am a stickler for washing my face every night. I can’t and wouldn’t go to bed without doing so. This doesn’t over dry my skin and doesn’t clog my pores. It is a unique in that it is made with deep sea minerals and sea kelp extract. It foams up wonderfully (I LOVE that) and washes away the dirt and oil from my day. I love the calming aroma as well.
As you can see, from sun up to sun down, Healthy Essentials has a product to help you feel great. Whether it be your own skin, your child’s hair, or your teeth and gums, you will love these products. They are perfect to keep you sparkling this holiday season!

Which of these products would you like to try most? Have you used any of them yourself yet?

I love all of these brands, we have been using them for years especially Johnson & Johnson.
I would love to try the mascara. It is one of the few makeup items I wear.
These items would be perfect in a guest basket for anyone staying with you over the holidays too! I think You’ve given me an idea!
All those are great products. Listerine and ‘clean and clear’ are the ones in my home. I love mascaras. This Neutrogena product is very new to me. Will check this out for sure.
You’ve got tons of good items here. I like the idea of trying new mascara. I’m def. in a mascara brand rut, still using the same one I did years ago in High School!
Would love to try the Clean and Clear face wash! I need to up my skin care game up lol
The best feeling ever is going to bed al clean! Love it 🙂
Aveeno always works wonders. I still use that detangler even as an adult!
These are all great products. I want to try the Aveeno Positively Radiant Targeted Tone Corrector.
Those are all great products – and I think they’re all actually in my bathroom cabinets right now!
I think I am interested on that clean and clear – we don’t have that specific product though..
I need some better face routine options. I was just on water and it was good but water here is horrible!
I would love to try the Neutrogena mascara. I am in desperate need of a new one!
I always like having some listerine, though it can be very strong
I need to check out that mascara. I have been needing some more.
Oh that night relaxing deep cleaning looks so good! I need go find this!
That listerine is my favorite. Brand and flavor – it’s fantastic!
No more tangles is a big member of our family! You are right the holidays puts our health a but in the back burner
I love the mouthwash. I use it all the time and most often in the middle of the night!
All of these products are amazing. I’ve used and/or tested all of them.
These are great! I use that Aveeno corrector, but I’d love to try that night relaxing face wash!
I use alot of these products but I hadn’t seen the Clean and Clear night facial wash! I have to get this and am putting it on my list of things to get tonight!
So many nice products and all at the same time. I have been meaning to pick up some Listerine. A couple of these things would make nice stocking stuffers.
What some great products, I have to admit to being a huge fan of Aveeno and you can’t beat Listerine as a mouth wash.
We use Listerine in our house every single day. It’s one of our healthy essentials, too!
