How To Prevent Armpit Lumps

Category: Grooming Tips

Ever Get Painful Lumps In Your Armpits?

It’s Probably Not Cancer.

A lump in the armpit, or lymphadenopathy, is an enlargement of one or more lymph nodes under the arm. Cancer has a possibility of being the culprit, but when isn’t it a possibility? There are various causes, but I’m going to touch on the grooming aspect. These lumps in the armpit may be caused by shaving or use of antiperspirants (as opposed to deodorants).

The solution to avoid getting these painful lumps, is to avoid strong antiperspirants. Strangely enough, my preferred brand, Right Guard Sport Fresh, is an Antiperspirant / Deodorant. Maybe it’s just the right combo for me.

Just a little tip.

Peace,
Trent

Pure Bliss Essentials

All Natural Body Wash

Pure Bliss Essentials has a great new layout with a cool flash header… which doesn’t have anything to do with the products. Though, the new layout is much more navigable with a new section “For Him“.

I’ve been using the Lavish Lather Shower Gel. This body wash is described as an all natural, paraben and harmful chemical free product. It’s full of essential oils and botanicals.

I got the “Eucalyptus Spearmint” scent added, and it smells awesome. It cleans very well, which is a good quality in a body wash. It left my skin moistuirzed and fresh. So, this is yet another product that I recommend from Pure Bliss Essentials.

Peace,

iQ Derma Face Wash

Category: Face Stuff, Skincare

iQ Derma Essentials Daily Renew Refreshing Cleanser

The iQ Derma Face Cleanser, as all do, claims to do a lot for your skin. The main ingredients are called “Intelligent Ingredients,” which is something I always look for. This product alleges to gently moisturize with antioxidants and plant extracts. This is supposed to calm sensitive skin and make it feel soft and “dewy.”

I wasn’t sure what to make of the “dewy” part until I actually used it. Dewy was in fact the right word. The iQ Derma Cleanser did the main job, cleaning my face, very well. It also made my face feel just like the ad. Feeling soft and dewy is a good thing, by the way. I felt moisturized after a shower, instead of the dry feeling I usually get. I like it and plan to continue using this product. It cost $32 at their site.

Peace,

New Kittens… Crap!

Category: Life

They’re so cute though.

Apparently Bronco developed quickly. He’s still a kitten, but he’s a horny little bastard. He must have stopped knocking the bottom out of my comforter and realized I hadn’t gotten my baby girl, Felix, fixed yet. Yes, it is Felix The Girl. I thought she was a boy for a long time — whoops. Anyway, I delivered 4 kittens the other night. I am officially a “cat collector” now. I’m keeping 2, and my brother is taking the other 2 — whew.

Indy Car Race At Mid-Ohio

Category: Life

Sunday I went to my first Indy car race. My brother got a pretty sweet deal for us. We got pit passes and head phones, so I felt pretty cool. Of course I left right before the two racing hotties got into a cat fight. I did hope to meet Danica or Milka, and my brother and I got pictures with Milka (see below). We had a great time, but I have a very short attention span… uh, what was I talking about? So, I got bored and burnt, and we left. I made a major mistake and didn’t take my own advice. I have never been good at using sunscreen, but that will be my next purchase! I think I got sun poisoning, and subsequently missed 2 days of work (including today) — whoops, my boss probably hates me by now. Anyway, use sunscreen! Do as I say, not as I do. My brother got some good pictures, but I may have accidentally included an error or two. ;)

Peace,
Trent

iQ Derma Essentials SkinTensive xCel

iQ Derma SkinTensive xCel High-Potency Anti-Wrinkle Serum

This anti-wrinkle serum is pretty highly touted, and is even referred to as the “ageless face system.” It purportedly targets deep wrinkles and age spots, boosts collagen production, and prevents future wrinkles. The most outstanding claim is: “See Results in 15 Minutes!” That’s my cue to disprove the claim.

Did I see results in 15 minutes? No… it took less than 10 minutes. My face was happy. The serum is different from my usual favorites. It is a clear fluid that seems to soak into the skin immediately. It left me with an oil-free, clean feeling. I even think I heard my skin say “Thanks!” As always, a serum is not meant be used alone. This iQ Derma serum impressed me. It quickly gave my face a tighter look and feel, and it also had an amazing brightening effect. Normally, I would wait for the full effect to take place, usually about 6 weeks, but this product rendered quick results. I will follow through with my research and follow up in about a month to advise on the longer term effects. You can purchase iQ Derma Essentials High-Potency Anti-Wrinkle Serum from their website. Don’t let the spammy looking ads deter you. To me, the ads looks like they’re trying to sell a “cure-all elixir”, but fortunately I was able to use my girfriend’s bottle before writing this line off as a scam. Apparently, iQ Derma is confident in it’s product because you can try it free for 30 days. I always like that kind of deal.

Peace,

The Perfect Gift - For Free!

Category: Free Hook-ups

It’s a great time to win free stuff if you’re a girl, or you are into the “man-makeup thing.”

I had the pleasure of meeting the hostess of this giveaway, Phyllis. I have a very bad memory, but I remember those 21.7 seconds very well. Of course it was my girlfriend that introduced us, so I quickly had to catch my jaw — WOW! (uhh… no offense Mars) :) Anyway, before I get into too much trouble, the gorgeous author of Makeup For Life is giving away an awesome gift for your lady, or yourself.

Three winners will get a bag of beauty products. For each winner, she will actually handpick the products based on each winner’s skin tone, eye color, and hair color. Phyllis knows what she is doing, so this is better than waiting on a makeup chick in a black smock at the mall, trying to figure out what your girlfriend needs. Guys, if you hate that as much as I do, then you can completely skip out on the mall altogether. :)

Go to Makeup For Life, and look for the entry: “Subscribe to my blog for a chance to win a customized goodies bag!” - posted 7/17/08. Follow the simple instructions. Winners will be announced on August 20th, 2008, so you should probably get your entry in prior to that.

‘Tis the season to get your lady’s favorite crap for free, and focus on yourself! — Just kidding… not really.

Peace,
Trent

Free Purse For Your Boo!

Category: Free Hook-ups

Free Giveaway (from another site)

Fellas, not that I promote being cheap ;) but you know how much your Baby likes purses. I don’t have an answer to why that is, but there is a giveaway you need to know about. Even if you don’t win, Monique will let you know what hot chicks like, just in case you need to order something. Remember, don’t give your girlfriend, or wife, a gift only when you screw up — they tend to catch onto that sort of thing (so I’ve heard).

The beautiful Monique, at the aptly named Beauty Girl Musings, is giving away a white Marion bag (retail $355) from Pallie. No, I don’t know what that means either except that it’s a $355 purse that I may not have to buy and still reap the benefits. ;) Also, included in the giveaway is L’Oreal Skin Genesis Daily Serum Concentrate with the Daily Moisturizer Oil-Free Lotion, and Sublime Bronze Self Tanning Mist. All together, this brings the prize up to $405, and if you win, you can act like you ordered it special for your girl because you love her so much.

The deadline to enter is Tuesday, July 22 at midnight, EST. One winner will be chosen at random and posted on July 23rd, so get your entry in.

Peace,
Trent
