Solavie skin/hair care system review
The Solavie skin/hair care system is the first unisex skin and hair care line designed around the body’s response to environmental conditions.
The system is eco-global friendly
no outer package=zero paper waste for and from eco-systems of the world=enviro-type
compact bottle design=fewer trucks, less gas native plant phyto-nutrients=local indigenous sourcing
double concentrated formulas=less plastic supporting 3rd world handicrafts=socially responsible
all natural ingredients=bio-degradable profits donated to sustainable charities=0% net waste
100% recycled materials=0% net carbon
they have face wash, face nourish, body nourish, hair/body wash, hair nourish/style; and the enviroments are mountains, urban,tropics, shore, plains, desert.
I got the chance to test out Solavie skin/hair care system. I received the Desert Hydration hair and body wash, and the Desert hydration hair nourish/style(conditioner and styling gel in one). Desert is for conditions of dryness, heat, sandy wind gusts
the shampoo and bath gel in one was nice and great smelling. It felt more like soap than shampoo, but it got the job done. The conditioner and hair gel in one was a little different for me. It wasn’t as soft and smooth as regular conditioners, but My was glowing in the heat of the sun. i styled my hair and used the gel, and it stayed a hold for a while but not long. I love the smell of this product and it great for travel.

Fabkins are good for little hands
fabkins are the perfect napkins you can use over and over again. We put a stack of napkins on the table and my children will go through the stack before the meal is over. It gets wasteful an exspensive. So i got to try out fabkins, the perfect little napkins for kids.
About Fabkins: Joyce Raffo and Paige Rodgers were both committed to packing “waste-free” lunches for their school-age children but had trouble finding cute cloth napkins that weren’t too formal or too big. Ultimately, they decided to create their own, and Fabkins was born.Fabkins are soft and durable everyday cloth napkins for kids, available in an array of bright colors and playful designs. Sized for kids’ laps and lunchboxes, Fabkins come in themed packs of five that reflect kids’ interests. Fabkins make school lunches and meals at home more fun, and inspire children to help save the environment.
We really love these they are so cute and help save money with the amount of napkins they went through. The kids love the colors and the animals on them. We use them everyday and are even thinking about buying more.

I’ve never heard of a money tree, so school shopping will wait
Parent bloggers networkhas started blog blasts again, and when i heard this one was back to school, i jumped right on it. they’ve teamed up with capital one finanacial education .
With the economy being so bad, and not having money to throw around it gets hard to but back to school clothing and accessories. My daughter and husband will both be going back to school on Monday, but with new school supplies and old clothes. We have a very limited income, so the fancy gadgets and phones don’t even get a look, instead we try and patch holes in clothes and spruce up sneakers for a new year, at least until the budget can fit those items. I always make sure the school supplies are bought first, those are more important than a pair of new jeans.
I’m teaching my daughter how to save money with going back to school by packing her own lunch. we also have tried hitting bargain stores and thrift stores for clothes. you can get some great deals and even find new clothes. We are learning about sales ads and looking for the best deal, we managed to buy a pair of sneakers at pay-less for $15 and got an extra pair free.
Capital One has a great online learning tool to help you with moneywise etool, which has a section all about talking to kids about money. capital one financial education launcher is a great tool and also has sections like building good credit, rebuilding credit, managing money, and saving to build your wealth. It’s a great tool for helping get you on the right track for budgeting back to school shopping.
Teachers spend $1200 a year out of pocket, so its good to tell your children to remember to bring their own pencils and paper to help save money for the teacher, or even donate supplies instead of giving an apple.

Fiber One yogurt with 50 calories
|
|
Best-selling author and food expert Lisa Lillien, AKA Hungry Girl, has given her “seal of approval” to the new Fiber One yogurt, the only leading nonfat yogurt with 50 calories and 5 grams of fiber (20 percent of the Recommended Daily Value). It is also a good source of calcium and vitamins A and D, making this an all-around great choice for dieters and those watching their weight. Each cup includes the creamy, delicious taste you expect from Yoplait, and you don’t have to feel guilty about enjoying it. Fiber One is available in a variety of flavors including, Strawberry, Peach, Vanilla and Key Lime Pie
I recieved a coupon to try it out. I tried the Strawberry, and i have to say it was very good. tastes like regular yougurt , but better for you. I’ve traded my usual snack of chips, or some other unhealthy food for this yogurt.
Thanks to my blogspark for this opportunity, i recieved a fiber one prize pack as compensation
