Wear Flip-Flops? You gotta read this!!!!

Image Source
This is a great read for those of us who wear flip-flops on the daily during the summer months! With all my joint and hip problems, I can't wear flip-flops very often because they make my joints hurt, but I do, like most, love the quick and easy factor that they bring to the table (or ground)!

It's a quick read so go check it out and then come back and let me know what you think... I'll wait ;)

The Perils of Flip-Flops: Daily Beauty Reporter: allure.com:

Kinda gross right? And honestly, who's going to carry around antibacterial foot wipes??? Maybe it's just me but that's just like a whole other level of weird lol.

But now this has me super curious about if my feet get this nasty in open toed heels and saddles or if it's just in flip-flops, because it could be logically argued either way... Flip flops only because they flop around thus splashing crud (germs, bacteria, etc) all over your feet vs. any open toed footwear because your feet are open to elements which is the cause of the germs etc being on your feet/ shoes...

Though the flip-flop only argument seems more likely, we can't be certain based solely on this article because they never said exactly what the cause of the germs, etc on the flip flops and feet was, or if all shoes have that on the outside.... Well, really they didn't say much of anything because this was a fluff piece not a scientific study lol.

What do you all think???

Aspira Pura - Pure Joy Bottled

I had the great joy of randomly bumping into this company on Instagram, where they offered to send me a few free bottles of their water to see how I liked it.  I must say I absolutely love it, it's like pure joy bottled!  Aspira Pura is an amazingly crisp water that I just couldn't get enough of. Which is most likely due to the reverse osmosis process that adds the minerals and electrolytes, which regular purified water doesn't have, including Calcium Chloride, Potassium Bicarbonate, and Magnesium Chloride.  Another great feature of Aspira Pura is the bottles, which are BPA free. I've found through trial and error that this means that even when they are shipped in the heat your water won't get that plastic taste... if you drink cheap Wal-mart water you know what I'm talking about.  Depending where you look, this water will run you about the same price / mL as Icelandic Glacial or LIFEWTR, but that's because you're getting the same great minerals, electr...

VigLink - for my bloggers!

VigLink is a way for blogs to make money, especially when google is messing up your AdSense (like they're doing to me for some reason). From what I understand they create hyperlinks on thing within your blog that you have talked about, but may not have thought to link to the company's site, because maybe they weren't your main focus. Then they give you $ for the traffic that those links (and some that you have already made) get.  In 2015 I made over $700 with VigLink, mainly due to a few of my Christmas shopping posts.  So they are totally legit! And you can make way more money than with AdSense (or at least I have in the past). Plus you can use both at the same time, so you can earn money from VigLink's links and from the ads that AdSense puts up. Win - Win!
