Friday Find of the Week: Organic Green Screen Sunscreen by Kabana Skin Care

I love eco-friendly and organic products and love to share the ones I use with you, so this week’s Friday Find of the Week is Organic Green Screen Sunscreen by Kabana Skin Care.  It is my absolute favorite sun block and one that I only recently discovered. I had the pleasure of meeting Kabana’s owner, Erik Kreider, earlier this year and the first thing that struck me about him was how incredibly passionate and knowledgeable he is about organic skin care, especially sunscreen. I was getting ready to head to Trinidad and needed a good sun block so I thought of Kabana and decided to give Green Screen a try.  I am officially hooked and can’t imagine ever using another sunscreen!

Friday Find of the Week: Aqua Notes

If you are anything like me, you probably get your most brilliant ideas when you are somewhere you can’t really write them down, like in the shower, or bath, or at 3am when you are laying in bed trying to fall asleep… I can’t help you with the 3am ideas, but there is a great product that can help you capture those brilliant ideas that come to you in the shower or bath- Aqua Notes. What are Aqua Notes? Per their website,  AquaNotes®  is a waterproof notepad that allows you to record your great ideas while you’re in the shower.  It’s so durable you can even write underwater.  They’re recyclable, environmentally friendly, and the notepad is printed with soy-based ink.
