Googly eye attachments. Swiveled head. Locking Handle. These all sound as if they should describe some strange new children’s toy. In fact they do not. They actually describe broom and dust pan combinations. Yes there is currently a broom and dust pan fully equipped with googly eyes and a big smile, just to make cleaning fun. Ha, ha!
If you are like me cleaning is anything but fun and I am most definitely not going to pay extra for a broom that literally stares at me from the corner. So what would I buy? I want, as most do, an efficient and inexpensive combination that works well. Let me guess you are asking, “Does that even exist?” Well yes but it is a little different from Mr. Googly Eyes.
Many good broom and dust pan combinations are available for reasonable prices. Most of these will run between $10 and $20. When shopping for these you will want to know how to get your money’s worth. Here are some things to look for.
The broom its self should be light weight and durable. Brooms with a dual bristle design will work best because they will move both large and small objects. These bristles will allow the broom to be used on carpeting as well and even homes with carpeting require a broom and dust pan combination for occasional mishaps. A smooth plastic design that will not damage walls or wooden furniture will allow you to work quickly without worrying about possible damages. A narrow design is excellent if you will be using the broom in small or awkward areas. The design of the dust pan is nearly as important as that of the broom.
Most broom and dust pan combinations allow the pan to snap on to the broom. Be sure to find a set that has this feature. This feature both protects the broom from damage and protects the pan from loss. The design of the scoop part of the pan should be relatively smooth and should not have any large crevices. The rougher a pan is the more difficult your pickup will be. A rough pan is also difficult to clean and part of your dirt may wind up back on the floor.
While not all good broom and dust pan combinations feature googly eyes and a big smile, they will be functional and affordable. Find a set that follows the above specifics today and make your cleaning easier.

Have you ever heard the term “saving face”? Well I think after reading this you may see this cliché in a whole new fashion. Did you know that your skin is one of the most tell tale signs of your age? This is because unlike the rest of your body your skin is exposed to daily stressors. This begins at birth and continues every day of your life. Sun light, UV lights, dust particles in the air, and thousands of other toxic molecules can cause damage to your skin. To prevent and repair this damage certain steps must be taken.
If you take care of your skin it will look younger and healthier, making you look younger and healthier as well. The first most important step in caring for your skin is to develop a daily cleaning routine. This routine should always begin with a gentle skin cleanser.
The common ingredients in most cleansers are water, oil, and surfactants. These substances breakdown and wash away any oil, dirt, or makeup that may be on your skin. They can also add to the damage that has already been done to your skin. These chemicals can strip away needed oils which keep your skin healthy and prevent dryness. In addition these products add unnecessary oils which cause blotchy skin and acne. Thanks to modern science it is no longer necessary to use these damaging chemicals on your skin.
Skin cleansers can now be purchased which include natural ingredients your body needs. These ingredients, namely vitamins and antioxidants, are safer and more effective for cleaning your skin. Many often include exfoliates as well. These help to rid your body of dead skin cells, opening your pores and giving your skin a healthy glow. These types of cleansers renew skin rather than damaging it. They are better for your body, because they do not contain potential allergens and are relatively inexpensive.
Using a gentle skin cleanser should be a part of everyone’s daily routine. You can not depend on your body to fight all of the environmental challenges that cause skin damage. By focusing your efforts on skin care you may be able to prevent some signs of aging as well as skin damage. Do not delay; add a gentle skin cleanser to your routine now. The face you save may be your own!

So you have sore feet. There are some easy ways to take care of this right in the privacy of your own home. Here are the most basic and easiest methods.
The simple act of washing your feet well with warm water and drying them carefully afterward will soothe them. Clean your feet every day to avoid any problems. Sometimes an elderly or obese person has trouble reaching their feet, so using a scrubbie on a long handle will work well.
Elevate your feet by putting them up on a pillow or two. They should be raised above waist level and left there until any swelling comes down. This will help take the soreness out.
Soaking the feet in a container that is large enough to fit your foot comfortably. The water needs to be warm and some essential oils added or bath salts. Using hot water will not kill bacteria but it may cause a burn so the water should be warm and comfortable.
Sore feet can be caused from trimming the nails incorrectly. Only cut the nail straight across. Cutting the edges of the nail may cause it to grow into the skin eventually causing the nail to cut the skin. This could lead to complications like an infection.
Massaging your feet is always a good idea as it will not only soothe your sore feet, but make them much healthier. Home remedies for sore feet can be as simple as using a creamy, soothing ointment enriched with collagen. The best choice would be one that is made of natural oils like menthol, camphor and peppermint. This is a very refreshing formula and easy to use at home.
Another home remedy may sound a little odd but does seem to help. After washing your feet you are going to find a pair of comfortable cotton socks you can wear to bed for the night. Before putting the socks on, rub your feet with a hunk of solid shortening. Apply this generously making sure to cover every inch of your foot. In the morning when you remove the socks your feet will be much softer. You can do this when needed. If you can't stand using shortening, try using Vaseline.
