Wednesday Wag Out!

Breast Cancer Awareness Beauty

Mom loves Jane Iredale makeup. Mom doesn't wear a lot of makeup but the makeup she does wear doesn't contain any of the icky stuff that traditional makeup has. This Breast Cancer Awareness lipstick and lip gloss are, of course, right up her alley since she loves supporting a good cause and she loves anything pink.

The Christina lip stick is named in honor of Christina Applegate who was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. After undergoing a double mastectomy, Christina is cancer free and is now the face of breast cancer awareness.

For every lip stick sold, Jane Iredale will donate $2 to Living Beyond Breast Cancer, a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering all women affected by breast cancer to live as long as possible with the best quality of life.

This is truly a feel good and look good splurge. The lip gloss shown, In The Pink, was last year's product and is still available. Buy the lip stick at http://www.beauty.com/ and the lip gloss at http://www.skinelements.com/. Show your support for breast cancer and go pink with either (or both) of these great products.

Jimi Wallet

They call this the wallet for people who hate wallets. I don't carry a wallet because I wear my id around my neck and I don't need money. But if you know someone who doesn't like to carry a wallet or who needs something a little different, this is the thing for them.

Not only is this non-wallet compact and water resistant but it's also made from recycled plastic.
It comes in lots of cool colors and it's just big enough to fit the essentials like your id, a few credit cards, and some money. Did I mention it's also made in the good old U.S.A.? And that the company that makes them invests 1% of their revenue in the environment via 1% For The Planet program? You couldn't ask for more!

Head on over to http://www.branchhome.com/ to get a cool Jimi wallet or as I like to say non-wallet. I think this would make a great Christmas gift for Dad so don't tell him about it.

Water Bottles

When I read about these bottles this morning I was immediately drawn to their catch phrase - fill, chill and go! Love it!

These cool 16oz bottles are BPA free and come in a set of five with their own tray that slides into your refrigerator. Just fill, chill and go. These little guys are even dishwasher safe so they are very eco-friendly. No more excuses to buy bottled water when you have these around the house.

If you aren't so keen on plastic, they also come in aluminum. If you need smaller bottles for kids, they have those too.

With these bottles you will always have a perfectly chilled drink to go, so check them out at http://www.reduceeveryday.com/.
