Eco Friendly Products From Droplets Of Nature

I still have a long way to go in terms of being green or living a green and eco-friendly life. I am getting there one by one, from bringing an ecobag every time I shop to lessening our carbon footprints. I am also on the look out for organic products and eco friendly products. And my recent finds are eco friendly products from Droplets of Nature:

Droplets of Nature Eco-friendly dish washing liquid is made from poato/corn surfactants, listed as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the US Food & Drugs Administration (US FDA). The dish washing liquid is loaded with essentials oils, must be the reason why it feels soft to my hands. It smells good too.

Aside from safe ingredients, the dish washing liquid also has kitchenware conditioner making kitchen wares last longer. And not only that, kitchenware dries up easily and the dish washing liquid have shinning effect on the wares. And as I noticed it, the concentration of the dish washing liquid is really thick (part of Droplets of Nature promise to their clients to provide eco-friendly products that have value for one’s money- it is 3 to 5x concentrated than your ordinary dishwashing liquid).

Droplets of Nature Beauty & Bright Line offers two products:

Beauty & Bright Skin Lightening Body Soap and Anti-Aging Serum Bar. The first wash- off serum bar in the market and made from acai berry and moringa extract. I think this soap is perfect for my mom. She love anything Moringa and the anti aging serum will do great on her skin.

Beauty & Bright Skin Lightening Body Soap and Anti-Aging Serum Bar is an all natural soap that effectively lightens and moisturizes the skin, loaded with moringa, acai berry, kojic acid, papaya, lemon extracts and lactic acid.

Beauty & Bright Facial & Body Lightening Moringa Soap has 7 skin lightening and Beautifying Extracts: Moringa (Malunggay), Papaya, Kojic Acid, Camellia Japonica, Candeia Tree Oil, Oxalis Triangularis Oil & Plant-based Lactic Acid. The combination of three potent extracts Moringa/Malunggay and the Three (3) Power Oils (Camellia, Candeia, Oxalis Triangularis)makes the soap more effective The 3 Power Oils have been clinically proven more effective than Arbutin in skin lightening. I really like the smell of this soap.

Droplets of Nature Hand Sanitizer is very mild and safe for baby’s hands. It is made from plant-based lactic acid (acting as anti- bacterial), fruit-based alcohol and essential oils (acts as natural moisturizer). I never leave home without the hand sanitizer, specially when I’m with the kids.

The end of My Lose More, Live More Journey

ahh let me rephrase that.. today marks the end of my lose more, live more journey with the bloggers 🙂 PRESSCON namin today!!

>>>inserts scream<<<

Obviously, this will be my first time to be on the spotlight.. I like covering events, but today it would be different! arggghh

Of course it’s not totally the end of the journey with them, our support group has just started and we’re all more eager to lose more and live more now than during the start of the program. For more than a month, we’ve been through a lot:

First, we had our initial check up, where in our sugar, cholesterol, triglycerides level were tested. We also did treadmill test and our vital stats were recorded too. You can read how HIGH my cholesterol and triglycerides on this blog post and what are the things I did to lower my cholesterol.

We were educated with the importance of fiber in our body and what else we can do to lose more (moving more and exercising).. and its not just about weight anymore..

We also expereinced what it’s like to do a near death exercise..OK I was just kidding, we experienced CROSSFIT!

Crossfit is elite fitness for everyone at – from couch potatoes to seasoned athletes. It is a program that was originally developed by legendary coach Greg Glassman after his many years of watching, working with, and coaching all types of people.

Based on our experince, the routines were really easy, but oh noes! it was intense.. and we were not able to walk straight a few days after! You can read our CrossFit experience here as well as some weight loss tips from a very well known Nutritionist (Nadine Tengco).

After more than a month, we had our final check up..and I am happy that my triglycerides are now lower, same goes with my cholesterol. I also lost weight in the process.. that’s two birds in one stone no? I owe that to C-lium, to our support group and to the people who were with us during this journey.

So excuse me my dear readers.. I still have to practice walking with heels 🙂

Wish me luck (with the heels) hahaha

Getting To Know Dermatitis: Cause, Symptoms and Treatment

My third soon often complains of itchiness behind his knees.. I thought it was just ants, then we noticed that his skin on that area becomes flaky and reddish. His pedia said he is suffering from Dermatitis. She said it was infantile eczema or Atopic Dermatitis to be exact. It was my first time to heard such as thing, so as any mommy would do, I asked the big G for more information: what is atopic dermatitis? what causes atopic dermatitis, what are the symptoms of atopic dermatitis, how to treat atopic dermatitis and how to prevent atopic dermatitis. What is Atopic Dermatitis? Well, according to our pedia, it is a skin inflammation. She said it was not nakakahawa or contagious. It can be very itchy and the child suffering from it experience discomfort. It can lead to infection though as when the child scratch with dirty hands. What cause Atopic Dermatitis? Pedia said it varies, it maybe food allergies, the sudden change in temperature, clothes material, dry skin or even due to auto immune reaction. Our pedia advised us to be very observant with my third son.. take note of the food he eats and see if this is the cause of his AD (atopic Dermatitis) What are the symptoms of Atopic Dermatitis? Itchy and flaky skin. Blisters due to scratching. How To Treat and How To Prevent Atopic Dermatitis? As the cause of AD varies, to prevent it, is to know the cause. If your kid is suffering from AD and the culprit is the food, pinpoint which and stop giving them that kind of food to prevent AD. Treating Atopic Dermatitis also includes pin pointing the cause so as to prevent it from getting worse. My pedia recommended the following:

Foskina B tow times daily
Use hypo allergenic soap such as Cetaphil Wash
Use lotion twice daily
Take a bath daily

Lucky me, I was given some Cetaphil products, I can give this a try and see if it can help cure my son’s AD. Here something about Cetaphil:

From the makers of Dermatologist and Pediatrician recommended brand of cleansers and moisturizers is Cetaphil Restoraderm. Cetaphil Restoraderm is formulated for very dry itchy skin. Cetaphil Restoraderm may help reduce the signs and symptoms of Atopic Dermatitis, improve quality of life, and prevent flare-ups and prolong remission. Cetaphil Restoraderm has two variants: moisturizer and wash. The Cetaphil Restoraderm Moisturizer contains filaggrin breakdown products and ceramide precursor, which help restore the skin’s natural moisturizing factors and rebuild a healthy skin barrier. The Cetaphil Restoraderm Wash has a patented foaming technology called “Miracare” that contains high levels of nourishing oils to hydrate atopic skin. Cetaphil Restoraderm Wash is non-soap, lipid-free and has a neutral pH. Cetaphil Restoraderm Moisturizer and Wash are both clinically proven effective and safe for use among babies, early as 3 months, and toddlers.

We learned that his AD was caused by eating chicken, mango, watermelon and egg! poor boy.. those are his favorites!
