If you are a mother of a child or even children who have sensitive skin, then you know the pain of finding products that won’t bring the constant irritation that most chemically based products cause. A baby’s skin as we know it is precious therefore it should be cleaned with only the purest and most gentle elements possible to conserve it’s delicacy. WaterPura- Chemical free baby wipes, are not only oil and Fragrance free, but are made with just two ingredients,which are 99.9% water and 0.1% citrus extract. WaterPura Baby Wipes were created to be perfectly safe and chemical free, while helping to support healthy skin .

Nevertheless, baby wipes are essential to everyday use. Though we easily associate wipes with changing diapers, it is common to overlook that they are often used to wipe faces, sticky hands and fingers that irresistibly and continuously go into children’s mouths. Only water and a washcloth can be considered truly Eco-friendly.

However, because WaterPura wipes are hypoallergenic, they won’t irritate the skin; instead, they may help avoid diaper rash and other skin conditions. This is why the National Eczema Association has awarded the Seal of Acceptance to WaterWipes.

Personally I recommend Waterpura safe, gentle Baby wipes for the whole family
which I deemed to be the only wipe you’ll ever need — from sensitive, wet bottoms & messy fingers, to sticky car seats, gunked-up toys be suitable for newborn babies
I seriously loved everything about it and I know you will too.

About Thirst Project

663 million people on our planet do not have access to safe, clean water. 4,100 children under the age of five will die today from drinking dirty water. Thirst Project is the world’s largest youth water organization. They are a nonprofit organization that travels across the United States speaking at schools to educate students about the global water crisis. 100% of all student and public donations they raise go directly to funding freshwater wells on the ground in developing nations and impoverished communities to provide people with safe, clean water. In just eight years, Thirst Project has activated more than 400,000 students on 320 campuses across the United States who have raised $8Million, 100% of which has been used to give more than 320,000 people in 13 countries safe, clean water. And this is just the beginning.

Thirst Project has made a bold commitment to do what no organization has ever done before and give the entire nation of Swaziland safe, clean drinking water within a decade.

Swaziland has the single-highest-density HIV/AIDS population of any country in the world, and water plays an incredibly critical role in effectively treating and managing AIDS, because even if people have access to medical treatment or antiretroviral medications, but still drink from contaminated water sources, people’s immune systems are already so compromised that the diseases in the water they drink will actually kill them faster than their AIDS will.

The ability to positively impact two issues at once is tremendously exciting. Help us make a difference.

What do you think? http://pin.it/9CN5TX0 Take a closer look!

The Secret- PaleyFest  I only call it a secret because , I haven’t heard of PaleyFest before this month. PaleyFest which is named after William S. Paley, the founder of CBS and The Paley Center for Media. Proceeds from the event support the nonprofit Paley Center. Paleyfest .

Fans and curious people alike, if you want to be “in the know”, and be amongst the first to see screenings to the hottest shows, with an opportunity to learn more about your favorite stars  and get up and personal, then PaleyFest is the way to go. You can buy tickets to the events, but as a member you get the best seats, and so much more you definitely want to get membership to PaleyFest. Which can be done on their website at  paleyfest.org for more information about PALEYFEST and The Paley Center for Media.

I had the opportunity to attend my very first PaleyFest event on Wednesday Mar. 21 at 7:30 p.m.for the premiere of NCIS: Los Angeles!!!! Let me tell you the Dolby Center is such a beautiful venue the crowd was amazing and the sound was incredible!! , The cast which consist of  : Chris O’Donnell (G. Callen), LL Cool J (Sam Hanna), Linda Hunt (Hetty Lange), Eric Christian Olsen (Marty Deeks), Daniela Ruah (Kensi Blye), Barrett Foa (Eric Beale), Renée Felice Smith (Nell Jones), Executive Producers R. Scott Gemmill and John P. Kousakis.. The cast seems to have that same chemistry off set as, they do on. Everyone was just being themselves. Which made each cast member more enjoyable. The Q&A alone was priceless, followed by picture taking.  Can’t wait to go back, it was an awesome experience!!!

A little insight, that I learned about the cast.: that Callen portrayed by Chris O’Donnell has had his wife and children act on the show. Things will heat up even more between Deeks and Kensi portrayed by Daniela Ruah/Eric christian Olsen. Sam portrayed by LL Cool J. smells nice,  according to the cast and each of the cast members look good up and close. John M. Jackson is back again,  also James Remar & Carl Lumbly?!  What a great guest cast! I’m already excited!

I now am “in the know” I am a paleyfest member and look forward to the annual festivals which are held in Los Angeles and New York. For a week long festival of exclusive screenings , panel discussions with the cast and creators of the hottest TV shows.

The pictures above are of the live Q&A panel, such good questions were asked by the fans, who proved to be true fans. The whole experience was captivating. I’ll be back !
