Turn Your Headlights Off!

I just have to share with you my new find DIMRS! DIMRS are reusable adhesive-free nipple covers. This product has been featured in Cosmo, Self and The Today Show as a must have favorite for many reasons.

Pronounced "Dimmers" these feather-light silicone nipple covers are completely invisible under clothing, so they are perfect for form fitting tops, bathing suits, anything strapless, sports bras or no bra at all. And unlike cheap imitators, DIMRS are designed to adhere naturally without painful adhesive. Also, used after breast surgery and pregnancy DIMRS are used to protect and soothe the nipple.

To Use: Simply position the DIMR horizontally across the areola and gently smooth out the edges. DIMRS must be pressed firmly up against your body to allow the material to heat up and adhere to your body. DIMRS are not meant to be worn with loose fitting clothing. To extend the life of your DIMRS, clean with mild soap and rinse with warm water and air dry.

After wearing for a week, I was so surprised to find how much I have fallen in love with my DIMRS. The only time I was reminded that I was wearing them is when I checked myself out in the mirror to find my headlights were "off"! This is a truly great product and now that I found them I can't imagine my life with out my DIMRS.You can forget the old school sticky applicators of the past... DIMRS are the real thing!

Support a local artisan and think pink!

Check out this esty boutique Lana Bella! Their soaps are created using an all-natural palm kernel, coconut, olive, and sunflower oil base soap recipe plus additional enrichment with shea and cocoa butters, using the "cold process" method of soapmaking. Nothing about their soap is pre-manufactured; they select each and every ingredient ourselves. Colorants are herbs, clays, cosmetic-grade micas or Earth-mined pigments. All are made by hand with a bit of love added. Most are made with natural teas, herbs, and pure essential oils for fragrance.

Also, it's October that means Think Pink is back. 10% of all sales are going to a Breast Cancer survivor fund! In addition look for certain items that will help even more.

During these economic times support local artisans and shop local! Check out Lana Bella's etsy page here!
