Protect Your Identity...With IdentityHawk!

Have you or someone you know ever been the victim of identity theft? I have not personally, but have heard of people who have had issues with this. Identity theft can come in many different forms...everything from credit card theft to falsifying signatures. Using the internet to make purchases can also lead to identity theft...especially if you are purchasing from a company that is not reputable or has very little to no security precautions on their site. It definitely can be frustrating so here are a few tips that I have about how I am attempting to protect myself and my family from identity theft.

#1. Check out IdentityHawk. This online company provides state of the art monitoring technology that scans the internet and alerts you when it detects threats of identity theft. When this company finds something suspicious, it sends you an email to notify you of the possible danger.

#2. Shred your junk mail. Even junk mail can hold information about you that you don't want the wrong person to see. So, don't just toss it out...shred it up first.

#3. Beware of those around you when using your credit card. I don't put it past ANYONE these days to take a photo of your credit card on their cell phone and then use the information in that photo to make unlawful and unauthorized purchases. It happens so be cautious.

So, there are my few yet helpful tips on how I am trying to implement identity theft protection. Take some time today to make sure you are taking extra steps to protect you and the ones you love.

Brought to you by your friends at IdentityHawk

The Pickle Juice Company Review

How many of you are super athletic and active during the summer months? I used to be...prior to having children and now, it seems I chase them all around so that counts as something, right? One concern that many athletes and active people have during the summer is hydration and the risk of dehydration, especially if you live in a hot/tropical climate. We life in NY state so we have four full seasons, our summers can be hot and humid and if you are active, that can be challenging. The other issue that many run into is having a sports drink that can replenish and refresh their system that is gluten free and healthy for them too. Food allergies can limit the choices when it comes to hydration drinks. So, today I am going to introduce you to The Pickle Juice Company . This company specializes in gluten-free sports drinks that will stop muscle cramps in their tracks and keep you hydrated and refreshed no matter what activities you are participating in this summer! Before I continue wi...

***GIVEAWAY CLOSED*** Well, as you have probably noticed I do not have a shortage of lip balms in my house. I do have a sister who is crazy about lip balms too, so I make sure to pass on some of my goodies to her. My daughter is also really fond of these little sticks of balm too...and LOVES to put on like two or three inches of it when she is given the chance! As a Carmex Blog Squad Member , I am privileged to bring you new and exciting products that Carmex has recently released and they are NEVER a disappointment! So, this next review is brought to you by Carmex and is featuring their brand new Vanilla Twist and Lime Twist Ultra Moisturizing Lip Balms !

Prem Soaps Review

I often love to highlight beauty and skin care products here on my blog and have been on the search for some really great and organic beauty companies to feature. When it comes to my skin (as I have said numerous times before) I am choosy as to what I use on it. Our skin really takes a beating...especially when exposed to the weather and indoor elements such as water, heat, cleaners and soaps . Have you noticed that most soaps today...even though they smell great...contain LOADS of chemicals and additives? I have, and honestly-it's scary. Think about it...your skin is like a giant sponge; what goes ON gets absorbed IN. So I think it is important to use only those products that will put goodness in...rather than chemicals. The other day I was searching the Internet for organic kitchen products . Specifically, I was looking for bamboo products, towels, dishes, etc. However, I was NOT prepared to find what I did! Prem Soaps is a little company nestled in Brooklyn, NY that...
