I am SO excited about this! Too bad my children are out of the bottle phase. While I can’t take advantage of the Pish Posh Organzier, YOU CAN.

Did you ever just want to run out of the house with a bottle, a diaper and a few wipes? You can’t really put all of that in your purse because what if the bottle leaked (and we know it always does). So what happens – you end up taking a HUGE diaper bag for just a few items.

Well, no longer.

The Pish Posh Organizer is a lighweight bag with multipockets inside and out to hold all your baby essentials  – and it’s waterproof lined. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO if the bottle spills inside the Organizer, it doesn’t get all over your favorite bag.

Want to do a quick change of accessories going from morning to night? No problem. The Pish Posh easily transports baby essentials from one purse to another. LOVE IT!

While many women focus on treating aging skin from the outside with topical solutions, many don’t think about feeding your skin from the inside-out to prevent the dreaded signs of aging. Paula Simpson – expert nutritionist – offered some of the best foods to beautify your skin from the inside-out and her tips on how to get the most from them.

Salmon: Loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, this cold water fish is high in protein and B-12 vitamin to nourish skin and keep it plump and youthful, helping to reduce wrinkles!

Paula recommends: baking, steaming or grilling in order to preserve omega-3s and to keep down your total fat intake.

Broccoli: Packed with vitamins A and C which regulates production of sebum, this dark green veggie provides powerful anti-oxidants to help the skin stay radiant.

Tomato: Antioxidant compounds found in tomatoes and similar fruits and veggies fight damage caused by free radicals which makes the skin look younger and more radiant.

Paula recommends: drinking nutri-cosmetic beauty drinks which combine tomato, broccoli and powerful superfruits which cleanse the system and the skin of toxins.

Melon: Properties of melons like cantaloupe are high in vitamin C and contain no fat or cholesterol. They’re also packed with beta-carotene which has been proven to brighten skin and heal some of the sun’s photo-aging damage.

Paula recommends: fill up on melon early in the morning without the need for sugary juices, this will get you energized and improve the skin’s structure and firmness.

Avocado: Provides essential fatty acids (good fat) which have been proven to help skin glow.

Paula recommends: adding a half an avocado to salads to get your dose of good fat and also stay fuller longer.

I’ve had dark circles under my eyes since 2005. I’m serious. Having children has certainly aged me physically and mentally. Wouldn’t change it for the world – but I wouldn’t mind getting rid of those puffy tired eyes.

Here’s a makeup trick from Prevention that is one to remember:

1. Choose the Right Hue: Pick a yellow-based formula that’s at least two shades lighter than your skin tone.

2. Apply It: Using a small-headed concealer brush, apply a dab along the lower lashes to the innermost corner of eyes and the hollows of the nose. You can also use your ring finger, which has a naturally light touch and added warmth to tap and gently blend.

3. Set: A dusting of a sheer, loose yellow-toned powder locks the concealer in place.

I’ll toast to that.

Tara Parker-Poke from The New York Times is reporting that a drink a day can keep the pounds away. In a recent study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, women who didn’t drink gained on average 6 pounds more than those who did. The risk of becoming overweight was almost 30 percent lower for women who consumed one or two alcohol beverages a day, compared with nondrinkers.

Just in case you want to toast the news with your husband – just want you to know the findings were not supported when tested on men.

Full study details here.
