Turn you old denim into eco-friendly insulation

One pair on denim jeans can change the world!

Who knew that your old denim jeans which take up closet space can be used to create eco-friendly insulation for homes? The Cotton. For Blue To Green drive was created in 2006 inspired by college students to help educate other coeds about the natural renewable and recyclable attributes of denim. As of date, the Cotton.For Blue To Green has created approximately 540 homes from all the jeans donated to their organization. From fashion to "Green", the denim gets processed to it's natural cotton fiber then returned to it's original fiber state and treated with a borate solution which provides exceptional thermal performance. Unlike the traditional insulation, this can be installed without gloves, contains no formaldehyde, is hypoallergenic and provides 30% more sound absorption.In addition, this is the only insulating product that contains an active mold/mildew inhibitor.

Ready, Set,PILATES PLUS BEVERLY HILLS, Go!!

Spring is here, and Summer is on it's way, so if you need to step up your exercise routine to get into bikini body shape, then Pilates Plus Beverly Hills is just the place to achieve that goal. A little over a year ago, I believed that Pilates was an easy alternative to cardio. After seeing so many Pilates infomercials, I envisioned woman in leotards, on their backs while flailing their legs in the air. I am thinking, what is going on? This must be a place where woman congregate to socialize while pretending to get what I would call a "workout". This was a FALSE dose of Skeptcism.

I rarely like to admit when I am wrong, but Pilates Plus exceeded any of my cardio workout and strength training exercise expectations. Pilates is not only great exercise for body toning and conditioning, it improves flexibility, core strength and posture. It also reduces body pain and aches. Oh, and should I mention, that it was an unbelievable workout . I left feeling invigorated and ready to conquer my quest to get my body in shape for Summer and looking forward to my next Pilates session.

The woman behind Pilates Plus Beverly Hills: Eden Sassoon and Sira Butler

La Native's, Eden Sassoon and Sira Butler, began taking Pilates classes together. They both realized the impact it had on the mind, body and spirit. Soon after, their passion and love for Pilates evolved into a business they call their very own: Beverly Hills Pilates Plus. Sira, has become one of the top Pilates instructors in the Los Angeles area having a waiting list to get into her class. This Pilates boutique offers great instructors and amazing classes all for $199 a month which includes unlimited classes. Your experience will be priceless, what more can you ask for?

Hair Oils: Moroccan and Marrakesh

If you have frizzy, curly and unruly hair like myself, then these are two products that I highly recommend. I was first using the Moroccan Oil which at the time was the ONLY product that could tame my hair and reduce the frizz while enhancing the shine. When I needed to replenish, the beauty supply store was out of the Moroccan Oil and recommended the Marrakesh Oil.  I was apprehensive, but I decided to be daring and try it out.  To my surprise, the results were just as good as the Moroccan Oil.  I am thoroughly impressed that there are two amazing products on the market that work wonders for my hair. And I have tried every frizz control product that exists, and no products compare to the Moroccan Oil and the Marrakesh Oil.

If you need a great product to manage frizz, create shine, tame unruly hair and condition, than you MUST go out and buy one of these two products. You will be amazed by the results. Which one is better, well you be the judge because I think they are equally as amazing. It's just a matter of choice.......
