CHECK OUT THE REVERSE GRAFFITI GALLERY AND HELP OUT THE ENVIORNMENT





You can help the environment by watching a great video on how one artist used Green Work products to create great murals in a location in LA.


About the Green Works® Reverse Graffiti Gallery:

The Green Works Reverse Graffiti Gallery is based on the idea that cleaning can be beautiful, especially when done naturally. The project has transformed an urban space in Los Angeles into a dynamic reminder that small, every day green choices can make a big impact.
Drawing inspiration from nature, artist “Mr. Kiji,” used Green Works cleaners as the medium to create murals in a mundane underpass in Silver Lake, with the hope that the unexpected art exhibit illustrates that cleaning can be beautiful and inspires viewers to do their part.

Like Green Works on Facebook: Simply by watching the time-lapse video of the transformation at Facebook.com/GreenWorks, $ 1 will be donated to Environmental Media Association, promoting more green works.



About the Artist: 
Mr. Kiji is influenced by his eclectic upbringing – born in Kyushu, Japan and raised in New York City. His dynamic, clean-cut style, background in geometric shapes and lines, and range of work and mediums – from murals to newspaper graphics to painting – made him the perfect choice for the Green Works Reverse Graffiti Gallery. His work has been featured at the Mallick Williams Gallery in New York, ARTWALK New York, Giant Robot, Canvas LA, ArtBasel in Miami and the streets of NYC where he is based.

Disclosure:

I will be receiving a free product from Green Works for my post.

WINNERS OF THE UPSPENT LAUNCH EVENT

"I'm very polite by nature, even the voices in my head let each other finish their sentences." Graham Parke, Unspent Time

I'd originally planned to have a monkey draw two random numbers out of a hat (then use the inverse hexadecimal value - because you cannot trust monkeys, not at the prices I'm willing to pay) but apparently there are laws against monkey labor. There are permits involved. It's a whole thing. So instead I asked a friend to think of two random numbers while dressed in a monkey suit, without telling him what the numbers were for. This seemed sufficiently random to me, although it later occurred to me how worrying it was that my friend would actually do this without ever asking why. There might be a thinly veiled cry for help in there somewhere...





Kindle Fire Winner:

Cecilia Huddleston



Kindle Touch Winner:

Kathy Habel







A big thank you to all the bloggers and readers who supported the Unspent Time launch event (especially those who bought multiple versions of the weird little novels that wrecked a thousand reasonably useful minds.)
Anyway, here's the results, thank you all for joining in, winners will be contacted and forced to accept prizes, let me know if you ever come across bits in the novels you like, stay healthy and sane,

REVIEW AND GIVEAWAY OF DERMAGIST COMPLETE REJUVENATION SYSTEM


 As we get older many of us develop fine lines and wrinkles around our eyes and mouth. I have spent a lot of money on products that did not work or reacted with my skin. I have seen advertisements for Dermagist cosmetics and was reluctant to try it. When I had the opportunity to try the Dermagist Complete Rejuvenation System, I was a little skeptical but I gave the products a try.

The Complete Rejuvenation System is a Anti-aging and Anti-wrinkle system that contains three great products that include:
  • Original Wrinkle Smoothing Cream- It adds deep moisture and smooths wrinkles with a combination of Matrixyl and Hyaluronate, increasing your skin's own collagen and cell regeneration.
  • Dynamic Age-Defying Serum- This lightweight creamy serum works on age spots,wrinkles,large pores and facial redness.
  • Instant-Effect lifting Serum- A light serum that provides a instant lift and tightens up your skin and provides long term wrinkle removal benefits.

My thoughts:

I tried the products for a full 30 days and I  was very impressed with the system. The products were delivered very quickly and were packaged well. The instructions included were easy to read and follow. I suffer from rosacea and I was afraid that the products would irritate my skin but it actually helped the redness. I still used my prescription cream first and I felt that my skin felt more fuller and the lines around my eyes and mouth diminished. My skin did not fell greasy and was a perfect base to my foundation.  Many of my co-workers commented on the improvement of my skin and I will be referring them to the company.


HOW TO CONNECT:
