Olay Cleansing Melts

   This is the NEW Olay Cleansing melts, they are water activated and can be used daily. They contain Retinol and are fragrance free for those that are sensitive to scents or other additives. I really enjoyed the ease of this when it came to my morning routine.



     The first thing you do is open package and take a square style wafer from a easy to reseal package (perfect to keep product from getting tainted from a drop of water but keeps them fresh inside package and not break). Add a bit of water to the palm of your hand where the wafer is but be careful not to blow it out of your hand it will go down the drain. It feels almost soapy in your hand once dissolved about 3 seconds.

     Rub your hands together  and it creates a nice lather feel it feels nice and soft, warm from the water.




     Massage your face with both hands to get every inch from forehead to neck. Keep away from eyes you don't want to get it there. I allowed it to sit on my face for a minute or two while brushing my teeth. Then I sometimes just splash water on my face or I will use a wash cloth and give a little extra scrub while wiping it off.



     It takes so little time and makes your face feel like a million bucks. It gives me a soft, clean and moisturized feel for the whole day. Do you have a skin care routine? This can replace a lot of products and makes your day more complete. As with any Olay product it is top notch and they stand behind their products. Hurry run grab a box. It has 32  dissolving pads per box thats a whole month.



     *They clean , tone and refresh contain no sulfates, parabens nor mineral oil*



*As with any review this is my opinion, opinions may vary-was able to review product at a comp or reduced price*

California Board of Pharmacy wants to mandate medicine flavoring to be done in a Compound Pharmacy .. How will it affect our kids?

 


As a mom of a special kiddo I know how important it is to get the medicine in to prevent an emergency issue because the child refuses it or spits it out and does not get the full dose. I like the offer of all these fun flavors that may not have taken away the ickkk but sure made it more tolerable. If this becomes something parents have to struggle to get they will have to resort to giving what they can and how they can. I realize California is one of few states that still offer this blessing and want to give other parents the peace of mind knowing this can be done with ease. 

 

This information is sponsored by Jordan’s Guardian Angels, a non-profit organization working with families with special needs children who are challenged with the need to administer a variety of life-saving medication to their children who face many physical and intellectual disabilities.




If you’ve ever tried to give a young child medicine, you’ll know that it can be like giving a cat a bath. Anything that helps the medication go down and be more agreeable for your kid is a win. One simple solution is to make medicine more palatable to children by adding child-friendly flavoring. However, the California Board of Pharmacy is now considering limitations on this straightforward remedy. 


The California Board of Pharmacy wants to mandate that medicine flavoring for toddlers and children be considered a compounding process that can only be carried out by compounding pharmacies. Compounding pharmacies can mix and combine ingredients for customized medication unlike retail pharmacies that dispense pre-mixed and packaged drugs made by pharmaceutical companies.


WHAT DOES USING A COMPOUNDING PHARMACY MEAN? 

It means that if you want to add a flavor to your child’s medication, you can no longer use your local retail pharmacy. You will need to use a compounding pharmacy. While I use and appreciate compounding pharmacies for some medications for my kids, they are far away from my home and I receive the medication by mail. I can’t imagine waiting that long for medication I need for my child if it’s more urgent.



WHAT WILL CA ASSEMBLY BILL 782 DO? 

Assemblywoman Tina McKinnor (D-Inglewood), Jacqui Irwin (D-Thousand Oaks), and Assemblyman Tom Lackey (R-Palmdale), both Democratic and Republican members, have introduced Assembly Bill 782 to continue allowing community pharmacies to flavor medicine for our toddlers and children. If this issue affects you, here are a few articles on this issue, a link to the legislation, and a compound pharmacy finder to see the distance you would have to travel. Please share with other parents in your network.

Flavoring Medicine Is Vital For Kids.

 California May Soon Make It HarderChildren Have A Right To Medicine That Goes Down Easily

 Parents Plead For Their Children’s Flavored Medicine Not To Be TakenAway

 Legislation Language:

 (b) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), “compounding” does not includereconstitution of a drug pursuant to a manufacturer’s directions, the sole act of tablet splitting or crushing, capsule opening, or the addition of a flavoring agent to enhance palatability.
