Even though we are heading into winter in the United States, you really need to think about sunscreen. My husband would not listen to me yesterday when I told him to put on sunscreen before the Chicago Bears football game, and guess what? He came home with a sunburn. Once there is snow on the ground, it is even easier to get a sunburn even in the middle of winter. You always need to wear sunscreen no matter what the season is.
Now, my husband has a lotion issue. He cannot stand touch lotion, having it on his skin, or applying it to our children. No, he is not trying to get out of sunlotioning our children — it just really grosses him out. That is why when I came across Kinesys I knew we had to try it. What I found is that this is a winner in our house. The microspray formula is super easy to apply. You just spray it on your arm (or whatever body part you are applying it to), and that’s it! You don’t have to rub it in at all. However, it was easier for us to apply to our kids faces (since my kids are little) by spraying it on our hands first and then applying it. It is super awesome for applying to their scalps, because it didn’t make their hair greasy (and I personally think that is the worst sunburn ever, because until that sunburn goes away, it hurt to even comb your hair). It is free of four important things - oil, alcohol, preservatives, and PABA. This won’t irritate your skin — even if you have sensitive skin. It also is water and sweat resistant which is great for kids too! It is also non-comedogenic (meaning it won’t clog your pores, so you don’t have to worry about acne breakouts). It also gives you broad spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays.
I found that my kids could handle the few seconds it took to apply this. There was no fighting, because it was so easy to apply. It was on before they ever even knew it, and it recently won the Parent Tested, Parent Approved Award. It was also chosen as the #1 spray sunscreen for high efficacy and low hazard ingredients by the watchdog group Environmental Working Group. The bottles also come in awesome bright colors that make it much easier to find in your house and the kids love. Make sure you check out Kinesys for your sunscreen needs!

I swear my husband has the most disgusting vehicle ever. I have often talked about what crappy gas mileage we get with the Jeep, but I have never talked about how gross and filthy it gets. It is nasty. Bill works a lot of time on job sites. Now, this can mean everything from buildings already done to those that are just breaking ground. He also carries a lot of tools and supplies for the guys in there. Needless to say, his Jeep has a layer of dirt in there that I didn’t think was possible to clean off.
Turtle Wax ICE™ Total Interior Care came to the rescue. I know when I think of Turtle Wax, I always think of the great job they do on the outside of our vehicles. However, they do as great of a job on the inside too. You know that layer of muck I was just talking about — gone. It didn’t take much elbow grease either! Our 5 year old Jeep looks almost brand new on the inside with its cleanliness. I am impressed and I don’t mind sitting in the Jeep now.
It doesn’t get easier than this to use either:
· It is best to apply wax on surfaces between 55 and 85 degrees
· Apply the wax to soft, cotton, damp cloth and apply to the surface to be protected. Use a separate cloth to remove the wax
· Wax should be reapplied when water beading diminishes
The other cool thing with the Turtle Wax ICE™ Total Interior Care is that it has so many uses besides your car. First, try this on your patio furniture. It’ll keep the dust, dirt, and grime off it, and keep it looking like you just bought it. My favorite — use it in the bathroom. You can say goodbye to soap scum. In the kitchen, you can use it to remove stains from appliances and other kitchen surfaces (like my old crappy countertops). It will also clean stains on carpets and leather furniture!
There are so many uses for Turtle Wax ICE™ Total Interior Care that it is definitely worth every cent you pay for it. You’ll be finding yourself running out to get more quite quickly when you see how good it works.
