Thom Fleming Skin Care - Winner Of Chrysalis Peppermint Foot Scrub

Congrats to Thom Fleming Skin Care - winner of the March Madness Contest. The lucky participants have won Chrysalis Peppermint Foot Scrub to help sooth tired worn feet - refreshing both the body and mind.
I would also like to take this opportunity to introduce Thom Fleming Skin Care. The story behind this company is quite interesting and very heart warming.
Thom Fleming, founder of Thom Fleming Skin Care, began his passion for creating natural healing products several years ago. While filming in Jordan, Thom fell in love with the Dead Sea and was intrigued by the healing properties of the elements found. Upon his return to the United States he began blending natural ingredients of fruits, oils, vitamins, and Dead Sea salt to develop a beautiful line of body scrubs. With the encouragement of a dear friend to market his product, Thom turned his passion into a business. Over the last several years Thom has manufactured a limited amount of product exclusively for his famous friends.
In 2007 Thom Fleming had passed away. To keep Thom's dream alive his parents had turned to his three best friend and asked that they continue his work. As loved one's would only do, Thom Fleming Skin Care is still thriving today carrying on the dreams of Thom and keeping his legacy alive.
As a business owner in the beauty and skin care industry I am honored to be recognized by a company with such great passion and integrity. It is heart warming to know that the loved ones of Thom are keeping his spirit and passion alive.

Fancy Nancy's Boutique & Promoting Gwendolyn's Gate Chrysalis Skin Care

Yesterday, upon visiting Fancy Nancy to check on sales and inventory I was met with a wonderful surprise. I ran into a woman, Lisa, I have not seen in approximately 15 years. Throughout our discussion, as most women do, we talked about our age and complimented one another on our appearance. She had also asked what I was doing at the boutique. I took the opportunity to introduce my line of skin care to Lisa. She was very impressed and decided to purchase the facial care. Fancy Nancy had also mentioned that she uses the line, and 2 other women, Nancy, and Patti who were in the boutique also mentioned that they use Chrysalis. This added to the sale of my product, along with the appearance of the 2 Nancy's and Patti's skin and their testimonial as to how Chrysalis works for them.
Since we had such a wonderful time promoting Chrysalis, Fancy Nancy and myself have decided that I should make frequent visits to the boutique to assist in promoting Gwendolyn's Gate.
Beginning April 17th, I will visit Fancy Nancy's Boutique every other Thursday from 3:30 pm to 8:00 pm. The location is 117 W. Slade St, Palatine, IL 847-202-9370.
Come and chit chat awhile, we had a great time from trying on clothes - getting opinions from other women visiting the boutique to talking about our skin care. And of course the aging process. Also, it's about Women Supporting Women! A wonderful way to meet and make new friends!

Hope to see you there soon!

Cocoa Butter - Information You Should Know

Known as the ultimate moisturizer with luxurious emollient properties, cocoa butter has been used for centuries to keep skin soft and supple. It is sometimes recommended for treatment of certain skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. When applied topically it also helps to create a barrier between your skin and the elements and helps to retain moisture. {Please note that in rare cases sensitive individuals have had skin reactions to this substance.} Cocoa butter has also been used by pregnant woman to prevent and treat stretch marks. When used in lotions and oils during aromatherapy massages it helps promote feelings of relaxation and an overall sense of well-being. Cocoa butter, like chocolate, contains a lot of CMP (cocoa mass polyphenol) and research indicates that massaging the skin with cocoa butter may help relieve stress, boost the immune system, and even prevent cancer. In Japan, researchers reported that CMP inhibits the growth of cancerous cells and tumors, and there is some evidence that the CMP in cocoa butter may also help prevent heart disease and alleviate arthritic symptoms. Other research indicates that the CMP may help individuals with conditions related to an overactive immune system such as psoriasis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia by suppressing the T-cell activity.
It's amazing what this sweet aromatic butter can do for you. Another fact is that cocoa butter contains natural antioxidants that prevent rancidity and give it a long shelf live - up to 5 years. Also, because cocoa butter has a low melting point, just below body temperature, it melts when applied to the skin.
Although cocoa butter is an ingredient found in many topical preparations, you may purchase pure cocoa butter at your local health food store, pharmacy, or online distributors.
If you like to create there are plenty of recipes available online for cocoa butter applications. You will love the effects of this rich butter - from the aroma to the luxurious emollient properties.

Increase Your Recognition On The Web

Here are a few tips that I have discovered to increase your recognition on the internet. First and most important advertise your site on all print material you have from your business cards to your labels on your product. Second, create a blog. You can do this at no cost and it's fun because you can update your blog every day making it your own creation. After creating your blog join the online networks - there are many available. In doing this you can again write about yourself and business. Also, a lot of the networks allow you to "ping" your blog - posting articles that you have written. Or you may create your own blog within the online network. List in the online directories such as YellowPages, YellowBook, etc. You will be amazed at how easy this is to do and will notice an increase in visits to your web site, blog, and the recognition you will receive in joining the online networks.
Since creating my web site, blog and joining the online networks the monthly visits to my site have increased overall by 75%. Therefore, increasing my recognition on the web. Keep in mind it has only been 6 months since the inception of my web site.
I am sure that once you take the time to enlist in all that is available on the web you will be pleased with the results.
Happy Surfing!

The World Wide Web Works For You!

When I first decided to have a web site my designer told me that it would take time for my rankings to increase on the internet. Over the past 6 months I have seen the increase slowly rise. But, as of today, the traffic to my site has increased by 40% since last month. The day is not over yet and I am excited to see the results tomorrow.
There are 2 factors that I feel have contributed to this growth. One is the web site itself with the key words, and the other is the Blog I created a few months ago.
Since creating the Blog I noticed an increase in the traffic to my site but the traffic to my blog is far greater. This is also due in part to belonging to a few networks in which you can ping your blog. These are great communities to share and learn new ideas.
I wonder what is next for the web and how it can work for you?
