A Cascade of Pleasure – The Conair Waterfall Footbath!

“When you’ve had a long day, and you’re feeling beat…

Treat yourself the right way, and pamper your feet!”

Conair Waterfall Footbath

Conair Waterfall Footbath

Whether you’re sitting, standing or steamrolling all day; it’s your poor feet that take the punch. Doctors even say the first symptom of exhaustion is leg pain. Imagine how marvelous it would be if we could get a magical massage every single night!

Well, since friendly foot fairies are only part of fairy-tales, you’ll have to find another way… and this is what I settled for- a Conair Waterfall Footbath! The luxuriously warm relaxation it gives my weary feet, is a sensation like no other! Cozily shaped to encase each foot, this bath has both bubbles and a constant waterfall massaging your feet from both sides.  I have found it best to add hot water initially as the cool bubbles gradually bring the temperature down to a perfect environment.

With 3 little toddlers to run behind the whole day, who has time to visit a spa! All I want to do on a break is lie back and relax. After a single use of the Conair Footbath, I decided this was one of the most interesting and invigorating ways to pamper my aching feet. Besides just a warm shower, this appliance does so much more! It comes with 3 fancy attachments- a scrub brush (to remove the grime), a pumice stone (to scrape off dead skin) and soft-touch massager to rejuvenate the underside of your foot, leaving you feeling completely refreshed and vibrant!

One of the chief treatments in naturopathy is curing ailments through a focused foot massage. Now you can practically heal yourself while enjoying the phenomenal feel of a ‘Waterfall Footbath’. It even has toe controls, so once I’m all comfortable I don’t have to get up again for the next hour! So join the race ladies… and don’t worry, once you get back, plug it in and give your precious feet a perfect foot-spa!

Get the Perfect Curl with the Remington Pearl!

“I’m undaunted in my quest to amuse myself by constantly changing my hair.” ~Hillary Clinton

Remington CI9538

Remington T-Studio Styling Wand

Even if you have the most beautiful hair in the world, no woman will ever be satisfied just letting it be. With an instant upgrade from damsel to diva, changing one’s tresses (long or short) is the easiest way to get a quick makeover! From straightening, to highlights, to precious little perms, you can go a million ways with hair to get the perfect look that Wow’s!

But what do you do when, like me, your hair is already straight as a stick and unfortunately quite thin! I’ve always wanted wild, carefree curls like Julia Roberts, but what I end up, with the traditional curling iron, is processed looking and dry! Then I came across the Remington T-Studio Pearl Ceramic Styling Wand. I must say I was initially quite skeptical if something shiny pink could actually be serious! But this styling wand has done wonders, from giving me the ‘fresh-out-of-bed’ Jennifer Aniston look to the lovely ‘Mila Kunis’ wavy wonder!

Unlike the long clamps of heat stylers, the conical shape of this wand gives the curl a naturally tapering texture and holds it better. It’s smooth and sleek shape also doesn’t get in our way while we’re messing with our mane! The special ceramic surface evenly distributes heat, and you can lock it at whatever temperature you need while you take your time styling to perfection. It also has a digital display to help you figure out the best setting for your hair!

Did you know this wand has a real crushed-pearl coating to give precise and professional results? Makes you feel quite royal right! I have found it extremely easy to master (considering the klutz I am); depending on which side I use and how long I keep it pressed I can create big and shiny curls, a beach wave and so much more. If you want to look stunning and sensational for the coming holiday festivities, the Remington Pearl wand is the way to go!!

The ‘Joby Gorillapod’- Photography’s greatest accessory!

“What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever…”

Joby Gorillapod sweepstakes

Photography’s greatest accessory!

Knowing my passion (borderline obsession) for photography, a close friend of mine had promised me ‘the best camera accessory ever’ for my birthday. When the day finally arrived and she handed me a gift-wrapped tripod stand, I was a tad disappointed. I mean, I love taking photos of my family, friends and fantastic creations around me, but how often was I going to use a tall, complicated tripod stand to take portrait pictures!

I unwrapped my present and staring up at me was a cute and compact black and white tripod, kind of like a 3-legged zebra-spider! It had bendable legs, made up of a bunch of ‘ball-and-socket’ joints, for a perfect mount on any surface- be it an incline, staircase banister or even an uneven terrain like rocky sand! The Joby Gorillapod is strong, flexible and can stabilize quite heavy SLRs with zoom lenses too! It can attach to any sort of photo equipment ranging from minicams and camcorders to complicated professional cameras like my husband’s! Oh and it even works with existing tripod heads to give an added advantage.

This sturdy little tripod is lightweight, very easy to transport and quick to set-up in any scenario. Enabling me to take shots from tree branches and window grills, it has added a whole new angle to my photography skills. With its moldable shape, it’s quite easy to pack and fits into any little space left. Easy to attach with a push-button, it even has a rotating lock to make sure your camera doesn’t slide off in creative positions!!

If I was crazy about taking pictures before, I’m just wild about it now! And the best part is, with my amazing Gorillapod I get to be in all my pictures too! Hey ladies, with Christmas around the corner, this is the perfect prize for a precious family holiday!!

Product Features
24-hour relief
Relieves hot flashes
Relieves night sweats
Restores energy
Helps with irritability and mood swings

I cannot speak for every menopausal woman because we all experience menopause differently. However, for me, my mood swings were, at times, unbearable. Amberen worked for me, helping me find stability, but not all supplements work for all women.

A former co-worker of mine felt her irritability was causing  cracks in her relationships. She had a difficult time managing her moods throughout the day. She tried Enzymatic Therapy Woman’s Choice AM/PM Menopause and had stellar results. The AM/PM formula helped her manage her moods during the day, while reducing her hot flashes at night.  She says her relationships have been revived and her electric bill has dramatically been reduced.
