The Sewing Mom

My sister has been very busy sewing and is now offering several of her purses and bags and terrific prices just in time for the holidays!

These zipper pocket bags are wonderful for kids and teens as well as for adults who are traveling. The long strap fits across the shoulder to keep your personal things close and handy. These are all made from 100% cotton and have a coordinating zipper on the front as well as a handy pocket in the back. They are fully lined and have a innerlining of batting for extra softness and support.  The bags measure approximately 7″w x 9″h. She only has 3 left so don’t delay!

These are on sale for just $15 each plus shipping. Head over to The Pond if you’re interested.

I recently received a little white jar in the mail containing the newest science in skin-care and, as someone who uses anti-aging products on a daily basis, I couldn’t wait to give it a try. Inside that little white jar was a thick white anti-aging face cream, Dermalastyl.

This product is designed to be applied to your face and neck twice daily, although, I only apply cream once a day myself, so I applied the Dermalastyl every morning over the last week after showering. The cream blended smoothly across my skin and I was able to easily wear my liquid foundation on top of it. The thing I like about the cream was how I only had to use a little. It spread very easily and a little bit went a long way.

The difference between DermaLastyl-? and those other anti-aging creams that are available is the ingredients. Most other anti-aging creams contain peptides to reduce fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating callogen production in the skin. DermaLastyl-? contains these same peptides, but also contains Tropoelastin which contains over 600 amino acids which will not only help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, but also help to prevent new wrinkles from forming. Plus, there is scientific evidence, which you can check out at the Dermalastyl website, that proves all of the product claims.

As I said, I all ready use anti-aging lotions to reduce the look of wrinkles, mainly around my eyes and on my neck.  I used the Dermalastyl  product for over a week, and while I didn’t notice any further reduction in wrinkles, I also didn’t notice any new wrinkles so I didn’t feel I was losing out by not using my regular lotion.  Unfortunately, I did have to stop using the product simply because my face began to break out.  I think the cream was a little thicker than what my skin is accustomed to which caused the break out.  Other than that, I think it is a good product for anyone looking for an anti-aging skin care regimen.
