Hello everyone. Welcome to the “holiday season”.

The holidays offer a wonderful opportunity to gather with loved ones and indulge in delicious meals, but it is also essential to consider the impact of our choices on health and sustainability.

Summertime Care :)

Posted on June 5, 2025 by autocreate740

Hello Everyone!

It’s me with the “News You Can Use” 🙂
I often post this type of information on my HairBlues beauty blog, where I aim to empower my readers with tips and insights that enhance their beauty regimen. But this month, just in time for the summer sun, I thought I would share with my “elder beauties” how important it is to take extra care during the sun and fun months. The sun’s rays can be particularly harsh, and protecting our skin becomes essential as we enjoy those long, sunny days. Remember, it’s not just about looking good; it’s about maintaining our skin’s health and vitality. When you find a moment, take a look at the video below, where the CDC breaks down practical steps for nurturing your skin. Embrace the summer with confidence, knowing you are taking care of your most precious asset—your skin!

Valentine’s Day and Sustainable Chocolate Ideas

Posted on February 11, 2025 by autocreate740

Hello Everyone,
As you know, for 2025 the basic theme for all of my blogs will include ideas to support taking action to participate in helping alleviate Climate Change challenges.

Having said that, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and guess what? You can participate by choosing Sustainable Chocolate to give to your loved ones and friends. This is a “win, win” for you and for the Planet by taking part in Climate Action !

So what is Sustainable Chocolate and why choose it to help with Climate Change?
Use the links below to learn more about it and where you can buy it.

SOURCE: https://www.sustainably-chic.com/blog/fair-trade-chocolate-brands
A great first step when figuring out if your chocolate was ethically produced is to see if it’s fair-trade. Fair trade chocolate is produced in a way that adheres to certain ethical standards. Fair trade is a safeguard against exploitation and child labor. It guarantees that farmers are paid a fair and living wage, regardless of the market price of cocoa. Farmers are also given higher wages if they produce organic chocolate and an additional premium wage to reinvest in their business.
