Teens Want Clothes for Back to School- Infographic

Get your credit cards ready because it’s Back to School shopping season!   You can find some of the best deals we’ll see all year, even as good as Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Who doesn't love the penny notebooks found at Staples or the discounted electronics at the big box store.  Since you can get a "deal" on just about anything,  the question turn to what our teens really “want” the most? FatWallet’s Back to School Survey reveals what teens want more, from laptops to tablets to smartphones to clothes.

The national survey was conducted online by TNS on behalf of FatWallet.com in July 2013 found that
  • 38% of teens want clothes to start school
  • teens would choose the iPhone 5, almost 2 to 1, over Samsung Galaxy S4.
  • 97% of teens use a computer at home and 74% use computers at school.
  • 80% of teens surveyed said they have their own cell phone already, including more than 90% of females ages 15-17.
So in this day and age, technology rules, not only with teens but with adults. So get shopping for your teens, yourself, and Christmas (if you are that ambitious). Enjoy the sales!

 (FatWallet features hundreds of the hottest back-to-school deals and coupons from top retailers who also offer additional savings of cash back for FatWallet members.

Monster Vapor - Bravery in a Bottle


 
Bravery in a bottle
Monster Vapor
   There was a time where our little ones’ fear of the dark would impact the nightly bedtime routine. The lights had to be kept on, bedroom doors opened, and an army of stuffed animals lined the bed for protection. Instead of going to sleep it would turn into playtime. When they finally fell asleep and I would tiptoe into their rooms to turn off the lights, except for the times that we would fall asleep first.
Nightlights, flashlights, lamps connected to automatic timers, and dimmer switches never seemed to “solve or fix” the problem.

       Bedtime wasn't the only time they were afraid of the dark. They were scared to walk down a dark hallway or into a dark room alone. They would have to be escorted and have the area “checked” before they entered. Their pediatrician told me that they were completely normal and they would eventually grow out of it.

       One sleep deprived night I found Bravery in a Bottle. Bravery in a Bottle is a mom own company that offers a collection of children's aroma-therapeutic sprays. Each of their 100% natural sprays has a specific goal or purpose.  
  • MONSTER VAPOR - RELAXING BLEND
  • STORM SQUASHER - CLARITY BLEND
  • COURAGE CONCOCTION - WELL BEING BLEND
  • FEELING CAMPY - BUG AWAY BLEND

        Monster Vapor spray contains a relaxing blend of lavender, lemon, mandarin, rosewood, and orange essential oils. The fragrance is light and not overpowering, no matter how many times it is sprayed to eliminate “monsters” or other fears. The silver spray bottle displays Winston, Monster Vapor’s mascot, the child protector. Attached to the bottle is a story card to help ease a child’s fear of monsters.


Lavender - Treats migraines, headaches, anxiety, depression, nervous tensions, and emotional stress.  Induces sleep.  Excellent pain reliever.  Boosts immunity.  Bug repellent

Lemon - Relieves stress.  Combats insomnia.  Boosts the immune system.

Mandarin - Antiseptic, nervous relaxant, sedative, boosts the immune system.

Rosewood - Antidepressant, antiseptic, analgesic, insecticide.

Orange - Antidepressant, antiseptic, sedative.

Bravery In A Bottle


       Allowing my children to spray Monster Vapor empowered them and helped them conquer the fear of the dark. The over the past few weeks, Monster Vapor has been sprayed less and less. My children are falling asleep earlier and using only a nightlight.  I found that the spay is very soothing and relaxing that I sometime spray it. 

       For more information about Bravery in a Bottle, Monster Vapor, and the other aroma-therapeutic spays visit their website braveryinabottle.com or on facebook. Bravery In A Bottle products can be purchased here.

MoH Bands - USB Flash Drive Wristband


USB Flash Drive Wristbands
Jade Turquoise Wristband

       As a busy professional I am always taking work home with me. Occasionally I forget my flash drive either at home or at the office, even though I have a dozen flash drives. I am not one to wear it dangling from my neck on a lanyard and my suites do not always have pockets. Without a flash drive I am not as efficient at my job. Luckily I was introduced to a product called the MoH Band that could solve that problem for me.

       A MoH Band (Memory On Hand) is a portable USB flash drive that you wear on your wrist, just like a bracelet or a watch. A MoH Band mirrors the functions of any other flash drive and is plug n play compatible with Windows or Mac operating systems. You can save files including word documents, excel sheets, photos, power points, videos, and music to your MoH Band.

       MoH Bands fit most wrists, they are 7.5” in length and are made of a soft silicone rubber. They are comfortable, light-weight and available in 34 stylish choices. I have a Lemon Lime Clementine MoH Band that frequently gets mistaken for a watch or a bracelet. I can always spot this flash drive due to its bright colors. Wearing it always reminds me to download my latest project before I leave work for the day.
       MoH Bands retail for between $14-$24 from their website. They are the perfect accessory for students, mothers, tech gurus, and professionals. I am so glad that I wear my MoH Band with me every day to work. My flash drive purchase will be for the Cosmic Rave MoH Band that glows-in-the-dark.

New Year's Facts by the Numbers Infographic

       Wishing You Health and Happiness for 2013!

       Here are some facts and stats about New Year's traditions supplied by the History Channel. I am surprised to read that only 44% of American adults plan to share a midnight kiss. What do they do instead?
       This year I will be celebrating at a big New Year's Eve Party. They will be showing the Times Square Ball Drop and I'm sure that I will be drinking champagne. This will be the first year that I will not be making a New Year's resolution. I end up breaking them after a few weeks anyway.
  
      What about you? How will you be ringing in the New Year? What resolutions will you be making?

What is Toe Juice?

What is Toe Juice? 

Toe Juice is a fast drying liquid that promotes beautiful and healthy skin. Toe Juice is enhanced with DermaVine, a blend of plant based extracts including Willow Bark, Lemon Peel, and Cinnamonum extracts.

 Toe Juice can be applied almost on your body for a variety of ailments and conditions such as:

    toe juice
  • Acne 
  • Athletes Foot
  • Cold Sores 
  • Diabetic Eczema 
  • Foot Problems 
  • Ichthyosis Psoriasis
  • Insect Bites 
  • Jock Itch 
  • Miscellaneous Skin 
  • Irritation Rashes 
  • Ringworm 
  • Sunburn 
  • Warts
  • And Many More

Who Can Use Toe Juice?

Toe Juice can be used on the whole family. It is safe for newborns, pregnant and nursing women, and the elderly. It is also safe for diabetics, cancer survivors, and chemo-patients. Toe Juice does not bleach or lighten skin tone no matter the ethnicity. 

How to Use Toe Juice

Apply directly to irritated skin as often as needed. Pour on or apply with cotton swab or cotton ball. Use Toe Juice for 10-14 days for best results. 

My Review

       My husband regularly complained of dry feet that ache after a long day of wearing steel-toe boots. His heals started to crack once the weather got colder. At night he would later his feet up with lotions and creams. He even applied liquid band-aid to help repair the cracks. I had to put my foot down when he starting using my pedicure kit, pumice stone, and my girly smelling lotions.
       Since he refused to get a pedicure I offered him a bottle of Toe Juice. He was skeptical of the name but agreed to try it. Unlike lotions and creams, Toe Juice is not greasy or messy. Toe Juice is an alcohol-based liquid. Once the alcohol evaporates, the DermaVine aids dry and irritated skin leaving a nice citrus scent behind. My husband was pleased that it was not floral and sweet like some of my lotions.
       After using Toe Juice for a few days, I noticed that my husband’s feet were not as dry and cracked. His complaining about them was also less frequent. He would not allow me to take before and after pictures of his feet because he was self-conscious about the way that they looked. We are both happy with the results of Toe Juice. What would use Toe Juice for?

Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Line Rescues Dry Skin #GotItFree


During Hurricane Sandy I had many house guests. Although I didn't have electricity for days, I had hot water and a gas grill and stove. My Bzz Kit filled with Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Face Care line was displayed in the bathroom, waiting to rescue my skin.
With no distractions of TV and technology this became the perfect time to test out these products.

One day, the girls and I had a night reminiscent of our high school and college "slumber parties". We giggled, told spooky ghost stories, and made up each other's faces.

We loved the gentle fragrance of Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Line. We also loved that the products are non-greasy and hydrate dry skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and absorbs quickly.

Knowing that Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Line is 99% natural and enhanced with probiotic technology was also a big plus amount the ladies. These products are also dermatologist tested and noncomedogenic.
When the lights finally came back on we could clearly see how radiant our faces looked and felt. All thanks to Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Face Care.

Products tested:
  • Intense Hydration Night Cream $18
  • Intense Hydration Treatment Mask $18
  • Intense Hydration Day Lotion $18
For more information on Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Line visit their website.


I received a product sample, coupon, collateral or other special premium from BzzAgent.

Spooky Halloween Statistics (infographic)

       As a child I remember warnings from my parents about poisoned Halloween candy and razor blades found in apples. My friends would sit at the lunch table and discuss a "stories" that they "heard", from their parents, about a friend of the family whose child died either from eating the poisoned candy or swallowing the razor blade that was hidden in the apple. All because they ate the candy before their parents thoroughly looked it over. One friend would always say "I don't know of one child who would eat an apple when they are holding a bag of candy." 

        Sometimes the full candy review would took days. Of course my parents picked out their favorite candy and threw away half of the rest. But as a child I was just happy to be allowed to eat candy. A few friends wouldn't even get to eat any candy. Their parents would take their trick or treat bag to work, either at a hospital or doctor's office, to get the candy x rayed for pins and razor blades.   

       While checking your child's Halloween is still a good idea, there are more scary things to worry about. Lead-based face paint, obesity, and diabetes are the real "dangers" this Halloween.
