Awesome Lotion


Newest product I received in the mail.
My husband was badly burned 4 yrs ago that required multi-skin grafts. His skin is very tight and painful on his knees and hands. He immediately applied this lotion sample to his knees and hands & within minutes his skin loosen up. We will see if the 48 hr. continue moisture benefits means the claims. We were very impressed with the instance results.

BOOK REVIEW / JUST SOME DOWN TIME

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Moore Green Reading / Chance for Love: Dangerous Romance-3 pack

       


I love to read. I was ever so lucky to be chosen to receive, read and review this 3-pack set of Romance books. I personally like the Nook / ebook option, however, there are many other options for your reading pleasure. I briefly reviewed the book package as a whole and found it's all good. The books are not long and drawn out like some I have experienced.


  •  Book #1 Broken Build - Exciting Romantic Suspense/Techno Thriller set in Silicon Valley. 
  • Book #2 Hidden Under Her Heart - A heartfelt romance sizzling with controversy.
  • Book #3 Knowing Vera - Suspenseful romance, an unsolved murder, and love on the beach. 
Go Green, read more eBooks and safe those trees.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Vitamin C / Beauty Treatment Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Moore Green / Vitamin C Serum by Poppy Austin

This product is great. I am always looking for products that help keep my face younger looking and feeling good, plus "Go Green" features.  I have been using this product for about a week now and I have noticed how much softer and my small wrinkles are actually less noticeable. I wash my face at night and just use the dropper provided to add one drop on my forehead, chin and both cheeks. Lightly rub it in and nothing more. This product doesn't appear to cause any itching or redness. I believe in just one bottle I have about several months of beauty serum.   

Poppy Austin are a leading provider of organic anti-aging cosmetics.
Vitamin C Serum Facts:
  • It stimulates the synthesis of collagen ( helps make new skin cells).
  • It's antioxidant properties can help improve skin damage caused by the sun (Vitamin C).
Go Green Facts:

  • It has a nice smell.
  • It is packaged in a glass bottle (Recyclable).
So yes, I would recommend that both men and women to give this product a try.

Ground Moles


I had one in my yard, now I do not. You know those little creatures that dig up your yard in a long line, leaving behind hills of dirt. Here is some more information about those little rat looking creatures and several GREEN ways that have worked for me in keeping them away without killing them. I believe Moles are here for a reason and part of Nature.

Facts:
  •  Moles are small cylindrical (rounded) mammals adapted to a subterranean (under-ground) lifestyle. They have velvety fur; tiny or invisible ears and eyes, reduced hind limbs; and short, powerful forelimbs with large paws positioned for digging & a long nose.
  • Moles can tolerate higher levels of carbon dioxide than other mammals. Moles are able to reuse the oxygen inhaled when above ground, and as a result, are able to survive in low-oxygen environments such as underground burrows.
  • Moles have an extra thumb next to other thumb.
  • Moles diets consists of earthworms and other small invertebrates found in the soil, and a variety of nuts.
  • Moles breeding season depends on species but is generally February through May.
  • Moles are solitary creatures, coming together only to mate. So all those hills in your yard are from one Mole.
 SOLUTION
  • Cats, yes, cats! We have several cats on our small rural farm home. Our cats tend to kill them & bring them to the front door. That was a no go!
  • Mole & Gopher Sonic Spike. Go Green / Solar powered! Now this product is great! Has been in our front yard for 2 months now & no Mole holes. Save, non-tonic to anything. No killing. It just puts off a Sonic sound that keeps the Moles away. Doesn't affect pets or people.

Go Green in the Kitchen

Go Green in the Kitchen
Save energy & money with simple changes to your kitchen routine.

    Drink Clean
Drink cleaner waterFilter contaminants from your tap water with a water-filtering pitcher or a faucet-mounted filter system. This will save money over buying bottled water, and the pollution created to produce, ship, and dispose of all those plastic containers. These are some good brands; Brita, PUR and the Shaklee pitchers. Faucet-mounted filters are easy to install; they simply screw onto the faucet, and a valve lets you choose to bypass the filter (for example, when washing dishes).



Go Green Your Detergent: Automatic dishwashing detergents and dish soaps can contain phosphates that cause algae growth when released into local waterways, that in turn threatens marine life. Many detergents can also release chlorine into the dishwasher's steam and indoor air. Two known brands without these ingredients are Ecover Ecological Automatic Dishwasher Powder and Shaklee Dish Wash.
Recycle Food Scraps

Recycle Food Scraps: Guilty I am of throwing food into the trash. This is a waste of valuable resources. You can turn coffee grounds, banana peels, and eggshells into a rich soil conditioner/fertilizer for your houseplants, lawn, and garden by composting them. Keep a small bucket with lid near your prep area to collect waste, then add the contents to a backyard compost bin. 

Pantry-Buy in Bulk: When shopping, avoid overly packaged and single-serving products and select large packages instead. Believe it or not it is cheaper. Skip plastic wrap and aluminum foil in favor of washable containers with lids for dividing bulk items.

Get with GlassGet with Renewable Resource Containers: Use Old-fashioned glass, ceramic, or stainless-steel for cooking, eating & storing food.  Many types of plastic can be recycled, however, they're all made from petroleum, a nonrenewable resource. 

So get busy, see what you can do to Go Green in your Kitchen.

  • Work Your Dishwasher

    No need to feel guilty about running yourdishwasher; it actually uses less water than doing dishes by hand. Run it only when full and use the most efficient setting -- light rather than heavy wash and air dry instead of heat. Don't bother to pre-rinse before loading. Tests by the Consumers Union show that rinsing is unnecessary and wastes up to 20 gallons of water per load.
