Lipstick: a Dose of Color

August 31st, 2014 | Posted by Deborah in Cool Tips - (Comments Off)

L’oreal color riche extraordinaire liquid lipstick

An excerpt from imabeautygeek.com by Janine Falcon

Lipstick who? Gloss-like colour keeps distracting me. This time it’s L’Oreal Color Riche Extraordinaire liquid lipstick, and if you don’t already have four or five of them, catch up already. They’re one of the least expensive ways to take five years off your face (that’s a tip for those of us in the 40+ club).

If you want to look about five years younger, put on a pink lip gloss. Truth. And that’s not a new trick.

What’s new is what a gloss format can deliver now: light, non-sticky, hydrating, pigmented, demi-sheer shiny finishes in a wider range of fresh, young shades. And all without hurting your budget.

Have you noticed how much prettier lip colour has become in the last few years? Pink, schmink — go bright, I say. That said, half the rewind power of gloss is in the shine, so softer hues will still do the look-younger trick.

Who does not like a great lipstick? An easy way to give you a pick-me-up and even a whole new look. I’m looking for fun and flirty colors and finishes, bold but wearable and all that combined in a little tube. We’re talking lipsticks here! After you’ve found that perfect lipstick and paid dearly for it, how about protecting it when you head out with an icy cool Cool-it Caddy bag. What makes it so cool? Cool lips. No drips. Tuck a fab little “freeze and go” Cool-it Caddy anywhere to keep your lip lusters cool and fresh. The cooling mechanism is self contained, so the best part? No drippy ice pack and no melted lipstick! cool-itcaddy.com

A Healthy Gut Is Key To Feeling Well

August 26th, 2014 | Posted by Deborah in Cool Tips - (Comments Off)

An excerpt from an article by Karen Fernau, The Republic | azcentral.com

Listen to your gut for health advice

The gut, or gastrointestinal tract, impacts all systems, organs and cells in the body. Up to 70 percent of the body’s immune system lives in the gut.

When the gut is out of whack, so goes good health.

“If people come to me fatigued or just not feeling well, the first thing I do is look at the gut. It’s usually the cause,” said Patti Milligan, a Scottsdale-based director of nutrition for Tignum, an international consulting business that engineers programs for executives to gain energy, mental agility and stamina.

The reason: The gut is home to 100 trillion microorganisms and more than 400 species of bacteria, both good and bad. Good bacteria keep the body shipshape. Too much bad bacteria causes inflammation and infection that can lead to constipation, acid reflux, arthritis, depression and autoimmune disease.

According to Milligan, the blame for the spike in unhealthy guts falls squarely on a diet full of processed foods, antibiotics, food dyes and preservatives, acid-blocking drugs and chronic stress. So does sleeping too little and eating erratic meals.

The way to maintain gut health is with the right foods. A healthful diet is essential to allowing healthy bacteria to do their job.

“Eating the wrong food, too much food, or eating at the wrong time can cause discomfort and, more importantly, leads to diminished health and performance,” said Milligan, whose RX for a healthy gut includes a three-pronged regimen of probiotics, high-fiber goods and healing herbs.

A side benefit of a healthy gut is a revved-up metabolism.

“People feel better and lose weight at the same time,” Milligan said. “Both should motivate anyone to eat the foods to make their gut healthy, and stay away from those that kill the good bacteria.”

Avoiding Golfer’s Meltdown

August 19th, 2014 | Posted by Deborah in Cool Tips - (Comments Off)

Never Have Another Meltdown On The Course Again (no matter what your score)

There are many instances that cause golfers to meltdown on the course - a missed 2-foot putt for par, a tournament losing triple bogey on 18, or a worm-burner into the water hazard located on the next hole’s fairway to name a few.

All can be prevented, some more easily than others.

One annoying meltdown that a woman doesn’t have to put up with is a tube of lipstick in the golf bag that is reduced to a gooey, runny glob of gunk thanks to the heat. Or the $4 protein bar bought at the turn to stave off a back nine energy zap that now looks more like the mud hole trying to be avoided.

Deborah Vinci had a meltdown two years ago while golfing in the summer heat. She went to re-apply a lip protective product only to have a large chunk come off onto her lips.

“I questioned why there was not a product on the market that I could store my lipstick and keep it from melting, but also be able to conveniently throw it into my purse or golf bag,” Vinci said.

She took her meltdown and turned it into Cool-it Caddy, a grab-and-go clutch bag that keeps costly beauty or health care items protected from the heat using insulation layers and a non-toxic chemical coolant.

There is no gel or ice packs to deal with because the coolant is integrated into the design. Simply freeze the fashionable accessory bag until ready to use for any outdoor activity. The Cool-it Caddy is small enough to fit into purses, golf bags, back packs and tennis bags.

“I wanted to design a bag that served a distinct purpose, but was also high quality and stylish looking,” Vinci said. “Incorporating the cooling system into the bag itself was the key component to achieving that goal. The only other way I know to carry heat sensitive items, including medications, is in a bulky ice chest or cooler and that is just not practical.”

Healthy Snacking

August 12th, 2014 | Posted by Deborah in Cool Tips - (Comments Off)

Healthy Snacking for Diet Success and for Re-fueling Your Brain as Well as Your Body

An excerpt from Fitness Magazine

Healthy Snacking courtesy of listotic.com

Think you can’t snack when you’re trying to lose weight? Think again. This healthy, low-calorie snack will satisfy your diet cravings and help you reach your weight-loss goals.

Homemade Trail Mix

For many women, dieting equals food restriction. Snacks? They usually get eliminated in the name of saving calories. But snacking when you’re watching your weight is actually a good idea. “[When dieting,] people often wait too long in between meals, so by the time they eat, they’re so hungry, their portions or choices are out of control,” says Linda McLachlan, RD, CDN, a New Jersey dietitian with Nutrition Matters, LLC. “Snacking helps keep you satisfied and wards off cravings.” Here, seven low-calorie snacks to help you with your diet goals.
Homemade Trail Mix
“Diet-friendly snacking doesn’t necessarily have to be low-fat,” says McLachlan. What’s more important: Portion size. A homemade trail mix of walnuts, mini chocolate chips, and raisins is a snack that’s satisfying (thanks to the sweetness and fat) and healthy for a dieter if portion sizes are kept in check. “Mix a palm full of walnuts with a pinch of chocolate chips and a pinch of raisins — it’s not always realistic to measure,” says McLachlan.
Recommended serving size: about 1 ounce of walnuts and about a teaspoon each of raisins and chocolate chips
Calories: about 250 fitnessmagazine

A great way to keep your healthy snacks cool and fresh (and keep the chocolate in the snack mix from melting) is to use a “freeze and go” Icepops by Cool-it Caddy. Icepops is a personal cooler that you just pop into your freezer until frozen then fill with your healthy snacks and off you go…..to the golf course, tennis courts, hiking or to the board room where you want to be on top of your game with a brain that is fueled.

Golf’s Feminine Side

July 29th, 2014 | Posted by Deborah in Women's Golf - (Comments Off)

Michelle Wie

How can we grow the game?

The number of golfers is declining and something needs to be done and we specifically need to look at growing the game for women and young girls. Can this be accomplished through offering golf in schools, offering clinics at recreational centers? Perhaps also making the public courses more female friendly.

Golf’s Feminine Side

Female golfers ages 6 and older represent about 22% of golfers in the U.S. according to statistics. We are an important and vital segment in the golf industry yet still a small percentage overall. Golf is not only a wonderful sport but it is a great way to get out and enjoy the great outdoors, hang out with friends and can also be a great way to network for those in business. Even though primarily a social activity, many women do feel the need to take up golf for business reasons. Unless you are a tour pro, golf is a game to play, get out in the great outdoors, have fun with friends and perhaps drum up some business. So go and enjoy!

And by the way, don’t forget to grab your Cool-it Caddy, the hottest way to keep cosmetics cool! Just pop your Cool-it Caddy into your freezer until frozen, next step? Go play!

The ‘Cool’ Story

The steamy beginning…….women, golf and makeup.

Most women LOVE their makeup, won’t leave home without it and wouldn’t be caught dead without lipstick on. The innovative concept for the Cool-It Caddy™ was developed by founder Deborah Vinci one steamy summer afternoon while golfing in the Arizona desert. Deborah had grown tired of dealing with melted lip balm, lipstick and sunscreen during her game and decided there had to be a solution. Something fun and fashionable to protect not only make-up, but sunscreen, medications, eye drops, and healthy snacks (like a protein bar with chocolate that becomes a melted mess in the heat). There had to be something to use without lugging a clumsy cooler along to the course (after all, we’re talking golfing here, not camping!). Shortly after, her very cool, yet haute line of products was born—keeping make-up, etc. from melting in the hot summer sun, and still being fashionable and fun. You simply freeze the bag then “grab and go”. No more product meltdown. Currently, Cool-it Caddy™ and Icepops™ are sold online and at retail locations across the country, as well as private golf clubs and resorts.

Travel Accessories - Cool Stuff For Gifts

The “coolest” travel gift.

An excerpt from the San Francisco Chronicle’s Gear column:

The question is as soul-stirring, hotly contested and universal as the chicken or the egg, Darwin versus intelligent design, Connery versus Moore, chunky versus creamy.

What do travelers love more: travel or all the cool stuff to buy that goes with it?

We’re pretty sure we know the answer, but being that the money spent on travel-related gear, clothing, gadgets, apps, guides and gewgaws would easily dwarf the GNP of several South American countries, we’re hedging our bets that some of you would happily stay home so long as there’s a safari pith helmet with solar-powered fan under the tree. sanfranciscochronicle

Spud Hilton, Travel editor

When a lipstick can run $30, keeping toiletries cool is worth the effort. The Cool-it Caddy, a small clutch bag that you chill then fill, can be used for hours without “product meltdown.” It comes in several styles including a man’s version which looks like a shaving kit and bright canvas Icepops bags in Lime, Raspberry, Tangerine and Blueberry for beach trips. It’s roomy enough also to fit chilled snacks and perishable medications. Taking a snack on the airplane just got “cooler”. coolitcaddy

What Women Spend on Makeup in a Lifetime

July 9th, 2014 | Posted by Deborah in Makeup and Cosmetics - (Comments Off)

According to InStyle Magazine the Average Woman Spends $15,000 During Her Lifetime on Makeup

The occasional makeup shopping spree can leave your wallet in need of some recovery, but how much are you really spending on your products? Finance website Mint.com gathered some eye-catching facts about beauty shopping, including that the average woman drops a cool $15,000 total during her lifetime on products! InStyle Magazine

And I can believe it—stocking up on your must-haves can be expensive, with most women replenishing their makeup bags roughly five times annually. There’s something about a new lipstick or eyeshadow that is so much fun….like instant gratification. It’s kind of like a kid with a new toy. But after spending $10.00-$35.00 on a new lipstick, can you imagine having it melt? I don’t know about you, but I have had far too many lipsticks melt while at the pool, beach, playing golf or tennis. I’m one of those that always has a lipstick with me and I felt there had to be a way to protect the investment. Cool-it Caddy is a very “cool” new product that you simply freeze (it has built-in coolant, no drippy ice packs) and then grab and go. Your heat sensitive items are protected from “heat meltdown”. Now that’s cool! Cool-it Caddy
