Healthy Skin Now, Healthy Skin Later with iderma

Caring for my skin is important and it's amazing the many changes it goes through throughout the years, and especially after having kids.   I always do my best to treat my skin well now, so it will in return, treat me well years down the road.   It's always interesting to see the various types of skin care treatments available, but with so many different skin types, not all skin care treatments feel personal to each person's specific needs.   Everyone has different skin tones, textures and imperfections that need to be treated differently. I know how important it is to take care of my skin now so that it will stay healthy throughout the upcoming years and products that will help the transition of my skin into my 30's, 40's, 50's, and so forth, are ideal and critical in maintaining healthy skin the older I get.

It's hard for me to take the time to shop for skin care and browse around stores, so I've spent lots of time hovering around sites like iderma.com, for example, a leading provider of anti-aging skin care products, as well as carrying hair care and makeup products. I'm so intrigued with their scientifically advanced skin care products that are recommended by leading dermatologists and beauty experts, which always grabs my attention because it has the expertise to back it up.  They even carry Shinso at iderma, which are anti-aging skin care products using age-fighting herbs that celebrities such as Jennifer Aniston and Kim Kardashian  have used for younger and smoother looking skin.  And we all know how great their skin looks!

Shinso believes the world contains "miraculous healing treatments" that can be discovered by harnessing the earth's natural ingredients.  Both Shinso Essence and Shinso Mist contain more than 26 active ingredients in a completely unique blend.  Each product contains Fullerenes, which has been shown to be 125 times more effective at protecting the skin than Vitamin C. 

Their products are specifically geared towards reflecting your particular skin type and condition, and we all know it can be so difficult to find really good skin care treatment that isn't promoted as a "one size fits all" type of deal.   We all know that one size does NOT fit all when it comes to skin.  

Yes, skin can be tricky (*sigh*) but I'm so thankful for the wonderful skin care treatments that are available to help make skin care easier.  I'm also thankful that technology allows me to browse through sites like iderma.com and with the click of a button, I can find and choose products for my specific needs.    Life can be hectic and crazy at times, but skin care should be a priority, and healthy skin is the reward!

Skoy Cloth Review & Giveaway

Being a wife and mom is a 24/7 job, especially when it comes to cleaning.  I go through more paper towels than I'd like, which creates unnecessary waste.  I use dish cloths and/or sponges daily, but get frustrated by that dingy smell they can acquire after being wet.  I don't even want to think of the bacteria that breeds on there!  It becomes costly after awhile and it makes me wonder if there's something that's not only easier and convenient, but also better for the environment and more sanitary as well.

Skoy cloths were created by two stay-at-home moms, Michelle & Karen, who had a desire to share a cloth that is better than any cloth they've ever used and was environmentally friendly.  The name comes from Skoj (pronounced Skoy) a Swedish word which means "just for fun", a word the two moms felt was perfect for their business.

Skoy Cloth is a natural and multi-use cloth that is:

- 100% Biodegradable

- Absorbent (absorption factor of 15x its weight)

- Re-usable

- European-made

- Clean

- Made from natural cotton and wood-based cellulose pulp

- Durable

- Affordable

- Long lasting

- Dishwasher and washer/dryer safe
- One cloth saves 15 paper towel rolls!

*Read here for proper use & care of the Skoy cloth.

Perfect for using in your kitchen, bathroom, and on most surface areas in your home or office.   Skoy cloth can be used in place of your sponge, wash cloth or paper towels.

I received a pack of 4 different coloured  Skoy cloths  for review and could not believe how THIN they are!  Wow.  I don't know what I was expecting, maybe something more bulky?  They are unbelievably thin and light when dry.  I immediately tested them out and had the perfect area for cleaning with: the kitchen counter that was covered in crumbs and jam from the breakfast I had just made the kids.

I chose the purple one to use first and wet it under the kitchen tap.  It instantly went limp from the water.  I squeezed out excess water (which is recommended for optimal absorption) and was amazed at how light it still felt, similar to paper towel but much more durable.  Paper towel easily rips apart on me when it's wet and doesn't hold up well for cleaning counters sometimes.  The  Skoy cloth was so easy to use and effortlessly wiped down the counter, crumbs, jam and all.   There was no tearing and I didn't have to scrub hard to remove jam spots.  It works great for cleaning up spills, as my son spilled his milk and the  Skoy cloth had no problem absorbing the milk and wiping the table clean.

As you can see in this picture, the crumbs were secured to the  Skoy cloth after cleaning.  

I rinsed out the cloth again under the tap, squeezed out as much water as I could and draped it over my kitchen tap to dry and for my next use.  

What I LOVE about the  Skoy cloth, is that you can microwave it (while it's wet) for 1-2 minutes to keep it healthy and germ-free!  It's so easy and it's nice knowing that your cloth is sanitized.  I noticed that there's absolutely no smell to my  Skoy cloth, which is what I encounter with my dish cloth often.  It works great with most household cleaners, but I've just been using it with water or with a touch of dish soap for cleaning in the kitchen.  It's also great for wiping down dust around the house and for cleaning the bathroom!

Overall, I'm very impressed with the  Skoy cloth and how light, durable, sanitary and natural it is.   I love that they don't get that dingy smell and they're 100% biodegradable, which saves so much money on paper towels!  When you have young kids, paper towels can be overused easily, but the  Skoy cloth is much more practical and money saving option.

Check out  Skoy learn more, buy online or to find retailers/etailers.  They can also be found at London Drugs in Canada and The Container Store in the USA.  They have different Skoy cloth prints (even holiday ones!) and they just recently added a Magnetic Sink Rail to their products that can be purchased for hanging your Skoy cloth on.

You can also follow Skoy through Facebook and Twitter.  Be sure to check out their fundraising page for schools.
