Being a home-maker and a mother, not to mention a neat freak, I am constantly cleaning around the house. All these washing have taken a toll on my hands. They are dry and chapped. The skin on my right fingers have started peeling too. I have used many different types of hand lotions but they just won’t work for me.
A few days ago, I received a bottle of “Gloves In A Bottle”. It is a shielding lotion that bonds with the outermost layer of skin cells to turn it into what works like an invisible pair of gloves. The Gloves In A Bottle restore the skin’s natural moisture and protects it from irritants. It helps to keep the outer layer of the skin to breathe and perspire naturally. I applied some onto my hands and immediately I could feel how soft it made my skin. What I like about Gloves In A Bottle is that there is no sticky feeling after rubbing the lotion onto my hands. This shielding lotion does not wash off like other conventional lotions. Instead, it comes off naturally with exfoliating skin cells.
Another thing which I really like about this lotion is that it is fragrance-free. Being someone with a nose that is sensitive to odour, some scents are really unbearable to me eventhough they are light. I am glad that Gloves In A Bottle does not make me sneeze at all. It is greaseless, hypoallergenic, completely safe and non-toxic. Many dermatologists recommend Gloves In A Bottle as an effective dry skin treatment. If you want to get your hands on this fantastic lotion, check out GlovesInABottle.com for more information.
This Shoe Wheel will help you to keep different footwear organized in your home…..just like your Rolodex.

The pockets are adjustable to store a variety of shoes – sneakers, stilletos and flats. Torro named his company “Rakku” which means Rack in Japanese. Check out Rakkudesign.com.

Can anyone tell me where I can find them? I just can’t wait to see the twins. I heard that Angelina Jolie and the babies, Knox and Vivienne have checked out of the hospital last Saturday and are now resting at the family’s $70 million rented house in nearby Miraval, France. The US Weekly reported that Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh who were accompanied by their daddy, each handed their mom a single flower on the day after the twins were born. Ain’t that sweet 😀 Now, I wonder how Brad and Angie are going to handle 6 kids 🙂

I have tried dieting and exercising but I did not have the willpower to stick to them. Recently I just discovered a weight loss method which I believe that I would be able to follow for a long time 🙂 All I have to do is to wear a pair of sandals. Yes, you heard right.
