SweetSpot’s here to stay, but newspaper nail art….

by Amanda Paige

Sometimes fads have about a weekend of fame and then something else takes it place.  Well that is definitely not the case with SweetSpot Labs products.  They are much like toothpaste, something you just can’t live without!  But I did find something that is getting its 10 minutes in the spotlight and I thought you might like to try it out this weekend…newspaper nail art.

My nail salon recently posted a picture of this new nail art and I thought I would check into it a little more and share it with you since you liked my last tip so much.  The video below is a quick easy tutorial, but I have seen several ways to accomplish this look.  One thing I have yet to see is someone looking for specific words or using the Sunday comics or movie showtimes.  (Please note the words will appear backwards).

So get creative and let us know how it goes!


Does it get any better than this?

Newly added to our repertoire of spas, SweetSpot Labs couldn’t be more thrilled to have partnered with Wynn and Encore in Las Vegas for spa services.  Just north of The Palazzo and across the street from the Fashion Show Mall, it is a must see destination.  Being the first two spas in Las Vegas to be recogninzed with Forbes Five Star awards, why wouldn’t you want to check it out by checking in!?

The spas don’t have fancy names, just menus full of services that are all about experiencing a mind and body tranquility while uprecedented elegance surrounds you.  With 45 treatment rooms and many customized services available, you are sure to find something just right for you.

The spas are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Appointments are available from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily for resort guests. For non-resort guests, appointments are available Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Treatments may be scheduled for Friday, Saturday and Sunday by calling for that day’s availability.

So to answer my own questions “Does it get any better than this?”,  I think not.


Learn Something New Everyday

With the iPhone fact app. you can literally learn something new every minute!  Sometimes you can learn so much that it is hard to remember them all.  But this fact I remembered and had to share.  According to the fact app. the stall closest to the entrance of a public bathroom is the cleanest because it is the least used. That makes sense, right? Well apparently I am not the only one pondering this because Leslie @ Sharp Stick in the Eyes brought up the same conversation.  It is a pretty funny read.

For women there is really only one time when you like the lid up on your toilet seat and that is when you have just gone into a public restroom, you think ”Yes, a clean stall!” Is it really clean though or did they just squirt in cleanser, flush and go like a blogger suggested?  Hmmm, guess we will never know unless we spy on them.

My mom and son are the types though that would rather hold it all day then use a public restroom.  They would probably like the Sit or Squat app., at least they would know how clean the restrooms are before they even go in.  There is probably someone out there right now like those secret shoppers that is going around reviewing bathrooms.  Next time when you are “Checking In” on Facebook, be sure to go review the bathroom for Sit or Squat.  Let’s clean up the planet, one bathroom at a time.  After all, according to Wiki’s Answers.com an average person spends 10920 minutes per year in there.


Weekend Survival Kit

by Tami Chasecucumber_mint_water1

Here are some relaxing tips to make your morning after a little more bearable:

1. Arizona Spa Girl says “This is the one to go for when you just had to dance until 3 a.m., regardless of your 9 a.m. breakfast date with mom. We understand and we are here to serve you with this quick and easy fix.” Here’s what you need:

· 2 slices of cucumber

· 2 frosted spoons

Here’s what you do:

Put two teaspoons or slices of cucumber in the freezer for 15 minutes. Place the frosted spoons or the cucumber slices on your eyelids and relax for ten minutes.

2. Melissa Aden an ethnic restaurant examiner says “Whether you are a water hater and need to add flavor in order to drink the stuff, trying to kick your soda habit, or just looking for a refreshing alternative to regular water, Mint Cucumber Water is an easy and inexpensive twist on simple H20.

I have served Cucumber Mint Water at many a get-together and dinner party, and it always receives rave reviews. Let this crisp, fresh drink make you look like a genius in the kitchen, and cool your brow in these hot summer months.”

Ingredients:
Plenty of ice cubes
1 gallon chilled water (purified water preferred)
1 medium cucumber
10 fresh
mint leaves, rinsed

Directions:
1. Thin slice cucumber
2. Place cucumber slices in pitcher, punch bowl, or beverage jar
3. Slightly muddle or cut
mint leaves to release flavor and place in serving container of choice
4. Add water and ice cubes
5. Stir mixture and let sit in refrigerator for four to eight hours to allow flavors to infuse into water
6. Mixture will last up to three days. Discard mixture once cucumber slices or mint starts to look slimy.

  1. When all else fails grab your SweetSpot Labs on-the-go wipettes in basil grapefruit for a quick pick-me-upper. Not content to merely cleanse, they help your body’s natural powers do their best to keep you fresh when you’re feeling otherwise. It’s simply spot sweet!

Just Say No to Douching

Since the launch of our new product, bidet-in-a-bottle™, I have been getting the same question over and over, “so it’s like a douche right?” And the answer is NO. Contrary to old school thinking, we now know douching can upset your natural chemistry balance **. This can spark a cyclical disturbance that can do more harm than help. That’s where bidet-in-a-bottle comes in. This cleansing rinse can help maintain pH balance, soothe, refresh, and offer you instant sweetification.

So you’re probably asking when you use it. This innovative invention for intimate care is a Shower of Power whenever you feel the need. During your period, pre- or post-sex, post-baby recovery time, after a long day at work or after your work out as a quick refresher. bidet-in-a-bottle is designed to be used as a gentle means of cleansing, soothing and moisturizing. All SweetSpot Labs® products are for external use only.

** You should consult your medical doctor for any recommended douching treatment, and follow your physician’s advice.
