Introduction

Axe body wash is a highly toxic skin care product. This product's official name is AXE Revitalizing Shower Gel. The parent company Unilever had sales of 49.9 billion dollars in 2004. In the interests of disclosure this corporate behemoth was recently involved in a mercury scandal.

Unilever Taking the Red Pill?


The AXE brand marketed by Unilever has penetrated the public consciousness through slick marketing and packaging. Unilever claims AXE is the world's leading male grooming product because men have - like Keanu Reeves - "taken the red pill." The irony is that using this toxic product is the same as taking a poison pill - without the choice of colors!


Positives?

There is nothing positive about this product according to the ingredient label. The Axe body wash does not meet any natural ingredient parameter. In fact, if you were to inject this chemical concoction into someone's bloodstream you would be locked up. I do not say this lightly, as the penetration agent
- TETRASODIUM EDTA - in this product enables it to pass into your bloodstream unhindered.


Tested on Animals?

It is not certified organic and it uses synthetic chemicals that have been tested on animals. Unilever outsource's animal testers so as not to get their hands dirty. The fact that it is not certified organic - obviously - means that there is a possibility the product contains G.M.O - genetically modified organisms - and pesticides.


Negatives


The Axe body wash is a chemical soup with many of the ingredients never even tested for safety according to the C.I.R. - Cosmetic Ingredient Review. The chemicals that are certified by the C.I.R have been tested on animals.

Cancer Linkage

This product contains a very toxic ingredient - COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE which has been linked to cancer in animal tests.


Reproductive Toxicity

This product contains one ingredient - ETIDRONIC ACID - linked to reduced fertility and a reduced chance for a full term healthy pregnancy.


Penetration Enhancers


Also present are penetration enhancers: TETRASODIUM EDTA. These agents work to infiltrate the skin membrane - i.e. penetration enhancer - and in doing so may increase exposures to carcinogens.


Untested Chemicals


AXE Revitalizing Shower Gel contains 3 chemicals that have not been assessed for safety in cosmetic formulas by the C.I.R. These chemicals are: PEG-5 COCAMIDE, ETIDRONIC ACID, GLYCERIN.




Recommendation


My advice is this, Don't Believe The Hype or the slick marketing by Unilever. Stay away from
AXE Revitalizing Shower Gel. If you use it now I strongly urge you to throw it in the trash.

Don't fill the coffers of a mega corp that KNOWINGLY uses toxic ingredients in their so called skin care products. Vote with your wallet and maybe Unilever in time will learn not to put their customer's health at risk.

The Unilever corporation reported an operating profit of 4.2 billion dollars in 2004 and they will not suffer if you don't buy this or any of their products again. However, if you use or continue to use this product you may suffer a myriad of health effects in the long term.



Certified Organic Alternative

There are legitimate alternatives to toxic products like these. You can make your own moisturizer products using natural ingredients.

Or, if you are someone who likes the peace of mind that your natural skin care products are certified organic I would refer you to the top rating natural body wash.

United States and Canada Only!

What's your personality type?

Hey, quick question for you today:

Are you a dreamer?

If you are, that's great. 
 
You can't be  highly successful in life without being a
dreamer.

But  there's a catch...
 
If you are the wrong type of dreamer,
you are destined to never
achieve your dream lifestyle.

There are actually two types of dreamers...

1.  Wishful Dreamer

2.  Active Dreamer

If you are #1, a wishful dreamer, you are
in trouble.

What that means is that you are the
type of person that "wishes" you had a
nicer car, or "wishes" you had a nicer home, or
that "wishes" you had more money.

But, while you do a lot of wishing...

....you never take action on those wishes.

Wishes just don't come true.

You make them happen by taking ACTION on them.

On the other hand....

If you are #2, an active dreamer, you are
programmed for success.


An active dreamer not only wishes for all the
things that they want but they take ACTION to
achieve them.

Bottom line active dreamers make their dreams
come true.

Can I let you in on a secret?


I actually know that you are a dreamer.

The fact that you opted into my site
and are reading my emails proves that you are.

The question is, which type of dreamer are you?

Are you going to continue just to "wish" your
dreams come true and hope your dream lifestyle
happens someday.

Or... are you going to take action on your
dreams and MAKE your dream lifestyle happen.

The choice is yours.

I have put a system in front of you that is already
producing dream lifestyles.

You can take ACTION and join us, and MAKE your
dream lifestyle happen.

Or... you can continue "wishing" and be content
to just want nicer things and a better lifestyle,
but never have them.

Choose wisely.

Melaleuca: Green From the Beginning

Here is a company who has been GREEN from the beginning watch the video below

To be apart of this GREAT company please click here today

The Betty Crocker secret of making money (even if you can't bake a cake!)

I heard someone say this the other day
and I thought it was pretty profound..

  "If you want a different cake,
  you need to use different
  ingredients."


Sounds like common sense, doesn't it?

But, it made me think of how I once
was.....

....and how YOU might be right now.

You see, once upon a time, I wanted
a different lifestyle...


I had a "cupcake" lifestyle...

..and what I wanted was the
"gourmet, 7-layer, triple chocolate
with raspberry sauce" lifestyle!


The problem was this:

I kept doing the same stuff
every day...
In other words, I said I wanted
something different...

...but I kept doing the same
old thing that was giving me
the little, rinky-dink cupcakes.

 -->  Success does not happen like that.

If you don't like what you're
getting...

...you have to change what you're
doing.

Having a great lifestyle is
not an accident.

It's not random.

And it's got nothing to do with
"luck"...

...it's about using the right
ingredients and the right recipe.

Here's my recipe.  And you can take
it or leave it:



1.  A powerful product that
 sells itself

2.  A proven system that helps others achieve their goals not just there's 
 
3.  A pay plan that pays you 100%  commissions ( no more weenie pay)

4.  And a group of highly successful
 marketers who will show you EXACTLY
 what they do every day to create
 their "gourmet" lifestyle.

That's ALMOST the whole recipe...but
not quite...

The last part is something YOU have
to bring. 
And without it, nothing
happens.....

Here it is:

5.  A burning, white-hot desire to
 create a new lifestyle....and a willingness
 to take action without excuses.


That's it.

I'm giving you 4 of the 5 ingredients.

All you have to do is take action
and provide the 5th ingredient...

Your ACTION is what makes the cake.

Are you ready to have your cake and
eat it, too?
Get started right now and I'll see
you on the inside!

Love this Testimony on Tub N Tile!!!

We have 13 acres of rolling hills and large grandfather pecan and oak trees along 2 weather creeks. We had a really severe storm 3 weeks ago and a large grandfather tree fell into the creek across our property line. The tree is massive at least 100 years old. In it's falling it hit another oak tree damaging it and landed on a grandfather pecan tree putting it under a lot of stress . The other day we met with our neighbor next door that we share the property line with to discuss a plan of cleaning the massive tree out of the creek. First of all I am a mosquito magnet! But anyway I was cleaning my bathroom with the Tub & Tile cleaner which I enjoy so much! Really I look forward to using it the scent is wonderful and I know I'm not breathing anything toxic, when my neighbor texted us to meet her at the big tree. She is very cautious about chemical exposure as she is a cancer survivor of 8+ years! I decided to take her a spray bottle of the Tub & Tile Cleaner for her to try. We were there just a few minutes when she started hopping around slapping mosquitos and she looked at me and said why aren't they biting you? I could still smell the Tub & Tile on my arms and told her it must be the Tub & Tile cleaner! Not one mosquito bit me!  She quickly took her bottle of Tub & Tile and began to spray her legs and arms rubbing it all over herself! Not one insect bite afterward and we stayed at the creek talking for 1 1/2 hrs. enjoying the beauty of the massive trees as the sun began to set. Amazing.

Insect Repellent - Mix 2 tablespoons of Sol-U-Mel and 16 oz. of water.  Spray it into the area where people are present. Use regular, diluted Sol-U-Mel and spray it on your skin and clothes.


Or, mix two caps Sol-U-Mel with 10 to 15 drops T36-C5 Pure Melaleuca oil into 16 oz spray bottle of water. You can spray this on adults and children, on their skin, clothes etc. You can also spray it around doors, on screens, on trees and garbage cans etc.
For an excellent mosquito spray that will not harm your family, combine one teaspoon of Tough & Tender with one capful of Sol-U-Mel and I capful of Renew Bath Oil  in a 16-ounce spray bottle filled with water. Just spray it on and wipe off with a soft cloth.

An Alternative would be to blend 2 oz of Sol-U-Mel with 5 drops of T36-C5 and 1 teaspoon of Tough & Tender in 16 oz of water.  Spray this mixture around doors, on screens or trees and garbage cans, etc...

An excellent insect repellent for adults is made by combining 5 ounces of Moisturizing Hand Creme with 4 ounces of Renew Bath Oil and 4 ounces of Sol-U-Mel.  For best  results, put this solution on all exposed skin a couple of times each hour.  NOTE: Some prefer to simply use 1 teaspoon of Moisturizing Hand Creme with 5 drops of T36-C5.

Different body types respond to different insect repellent formulas.  Don't be afraid to experiment and find your own solution and then pass it one. Some people have said that even taking the Melaleuca vitamins has stopped mosquito bites.
One of the most important things to remember when using the Melaleuca products is that they are NOT pesticides and therefore will not stop the varmints from landing on you. The products will deter them and greatly reduce the incidence of bites and the reaction that accompanies them.

Melaleuca’s products also do not make you feel like you need to take a shower after you use them. They are enhanced by frequent use and your skin will be healthier because of it.

Spray Tough & Tender around outdoor lights to keep insects from flying around the lights. 

Place a bucket full of water and Tough & Tender very close to a light on your patio and leave it all night.  You will be amazed how many bugs you will collect in one night.(
Use just enough T & T to make some suds)

FOR BITES - Use Mel-a-Gel First Aid gel on bites, especially if they have already been scratched at from itching.

Melaleuca Lip Balm also works like magic on mosquito bites. It stops the itching almost immediately.

For further relief, use Renew Skin Lotion.
For bee and wasp stings apply T36 C5 or Mela-Gel every 15 minutes for 4-6 applications to prevent infection. Takes the pain out very quickly and promotes healing.

Poison Ivy or Poison Oak - Use DermaCort to take the sting out of poison ivy, hives, and rashes.

If you get in contact with Poison Ivy or Poison Oak, immediately clean the area with Antibacterial Liquid Soap. Pat dry, then apply T36 C5 followed by Renew.  Mela-Gel is also helpful.

sunburn - For sunburn apply T36 C5 and/or Mela-Gel to sunburned area and reapply as needed. Follow up with After Sun Hydrogel E.

To protect lips and skin, use Melaleuca Lip Balm and Sunblock-SPF 15 or 30.


GARDEN CARE

Diluted Sol-U-Mel is very effective to rid your yard of crickets, all sorts of crawling bugs. For flowering bushes, spray liberally and then cover with a plastic bag overnight. Spray into the air, indoors and outdoors, as an insect repellent.

Tough & Tender diluted and used in a lawn sprayer unit makes an excellent bug spray.

Mix 1 cup of Lemon Brite dish liquid soap and 1 cup of already mixed Breath-Away Mouthwash into a 20 gallon hose-end sprayer and soak your lawn, garden beds and trees to the point that the fluid is running off. Bugs hate it! This will also remove dust, dirt and pollution from grass blades, making any lawn fertilizer work twice as well.

Aphids, Fungus, Mold on Rose Bushes, Crepe Myrtles, Zinnias etc.
Use Sol-U-Mel in a spray bottle, mixing it a little stronger than recommended on the bottle. Spray around the immediate area and at the base of the plant and repeat as needed. It has also been found that a 3% solution of Tough & Tender is effective for killing aphids and stopping the onset of mildew on rose bushes without damaging the plants.

Tomatoes, Rhubarb, fruits and vegetables   - Add 1/8 cup of Tough & Tender to a 5-gallon water can and water the soil around the tomato plants every other day. They will need about three applications. It will get rid of the blight, and you will have delicious tomatoes from your “mini forest.” (Spraying the tomato plants themselves does not seem to work.)



Spray diluted Tough & Tender on rhubarb and other fruits and vegetables to get rid of aphids, ants and other bugs, without harming the plant.
Weed Killer - Mix 1/4 cup Tough N Tender  with 1 gallon vinegar and 2 cups salt  - apply to trouble spots.

Apple Spray - Spray apples in the orchard with one bottle of Renew Bath Oil mixed with 5 gallons of warm water.


Trees and bushes - Spray diluted Tough & Tender on trees to prevent scale and other bug challenges.

 

Use Sol-U-Mel  in a 1:5 solution to spray your fruit trees, shrubs, and other plants. It wipes out the aphids, ants and all the other bugs that you do not want eating your garden.

 

Fertilizer and Lawn Spray - Diluted Tough & Tender is an excellent fertilizer for rose bushes. Also, spray your lawn with a diluted mixture of Tough & Tender in a lawn sprayer unit. It will kill the little gnats as well as mushrooms that grow in your yard.


Mold - With a 1:5 mixture of So-U-Mel , spray the moldy areas around the foundation of your house. This will also work well for mildew and musty areas in your garden where mushrooms crop up.


Soil Surfactant  - Putting Tough & Tender in the ground before you plant your garden in the summer will help the water stay in the ground when it gets hot and there is no rainfall.


Disinfectant - Occasionally you will need to disinfect your pruning sheers to keep mold spores from spreading. The Anti-Bacterial Liquid Soap will do an excellent job and clean your hands as well.


 
FOR YOUR HOME & COOKING NEEDS

Houseplants  - For general cleaning of leaves, or to treat brown spots on leaves, clean with a diluted solution of Tough & Tender.  For the latter, pour or spray the same solution around the base of the plant.

Ant Killer -  Spray concentrated Pre-Spot Plus on the areas where ants congregate, such as on the kitchen counter. Be aware of the surfaces of these areas when using Pre-Spot Plus as it can take the finish off some  wooden floors. You can also use Tough & Tender to kill ants, but it does not seem to last as long.

An alternate idea is to combine 1 ounce of MelaMagic and 1 ounce of Sol-U-Mel in a 16 oz. bottle with water – works well with large black ants.

ANT PREVENTION- Simply spray the most likely areas with 2 ounces of Sol-U-Guard combined with 16 ounces of water.
BARBECUE GRILLS- Soak your barbecue grill in a solution of 2 tablespoons of MelaMagic in 1/2 gallon of water.  Clean it with a brush.  For the outside of the grill, use 1 tablespoon of Tough & Tender and 16 ounces of water in a spray bottle and scrub with a soft brush.  For baked on areas, use 1 ounce of MelaMagic combined with 8 ounces of water.  Let it soak for a few minutes before scrubbing and rinsing.
Fruit and Vegetable Wash - Tough & Tender - 1 teaspoon in 16 ounces of water. Use this concentration to wash fruits and vegetables; rinse before serving. Or let vegetables set for 10 minutes in a sink full of water with 1 teaspoon of Tough & Tender. Place them on the sink strainer and rinse before serving or refrigerating.

Another option is to use Lemon Brite dishwashing soap to wash fruits and vegetables. Rinse before serving.
for healthy pets & animals

Fleas - For general protection, wash all bedding in washing machine with 2 capfuls of Sol-U-Mel and 1/8 cup MelaPower.  Add 2 oz. of Sol-U-Mel to 16 oz. of water in trigger sprayer and apply to areas where dog or cat rests to repel fleas and deodorize.  Add a capful of Sol-U-Mel to bath water as well.

ticks on Dogs & Cats - To remove embedded ticks, apply a drop of T36-C5 to a cotton swab and dab on the tick and on the site where it is embedded. Then grasp it slightly on the very edge and keep giving it a good pinch with the tweezers (as if biting it, but do not pull or yank out or it may break off with the head still embedded under the skin). In a few minutes, the tick will usually let go and back out. Reapply if necessary. If it does not release, gently rock with tweezers and apply more tea tree oil to it. Bathe the animal in ProCare pet shampoo.
Note: When pulling ticks off your dog or cat, always have a barrier between your hand and the tick itself. Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever can be transmitted.
Fly Repellent (Livestock) - Mix 2 oz. of Sol-U-Mel with 16 oz. of water.  Spray directly on the animal.  As mentioned above, works effectively on fleas as well.

Hamsters, Gerbils, Guinea Pigs - To control odor in or around a small animal's cage or to prevent communicable diseases, dab T36-C5 or spray a 1:20 diluted solution of Sol-U-Mel to the area 2 or 3 times each week.

Parakeets, Canaries or Tropical Birds - To prevent diseases among birds, use a 1:100 dilution of Sol-U-Mel sprayed once per week to the absorbent fodder material on the bottom of the cage.  Spray each time the fodder is changed.  WARNING!  Some exotic birds are sensitive to the aromatic oils in T36-C5.

Rabbits - To clean their cage, mix 2 oz. of Sol-U-Mel with 16 oz. of water.  Spray on cage and on the bottom tray to clean and deodorize.  Scrub clean with brush.  Rinse with water.

An alternate idea is to combine 1 ounce of MelaMagic and 1 ounce of Sol-U-Mel in a 16 oz. bottle with water – works well with large black ants.
ANT PREVENTION- Simply spray the most likely areas with 2 ounces of Sol-U-Guard combined with 16 ounces of water.
BARBECUE GRILLS- Soak your barbecue grill in a solution of 2 tablespoons of MelaMagic in 1/2 gallon of water. Clean it with a brush. For the outside of the grill, use 1 tablespoon of Tough & Tender and 16 ounces of water in a spray bottle and scrub with a soft brush. For baked on areas, use 1 ounce of MelaMagic combined with 8 ounces of water. Let it soak for a few minutes before scrubbing and rinsing.
Fruit and Vegetable Wash - Tough & Tender - 1 teaspoon in 16 ounces of water. Use this concentration to wash fruits and vegetables; rinse before serving. Or let vegetables set for 10 minutes in a sink full of water with 1 teaspoon of Tough & Tender. Place them on the sink strainer and rinse before serving or refrigerating.
Another option is to use Lemon Brite dishwashing soap to wash fruits and vegetables. Rinse before serving.
for healthy pets & animals

Fleas - For general protection, wash all bedding in washing machine with 2 capfuls of Sol-U-Mel and 1/8 cup MelaPower. Add 2 oz. of Sol-U-Mel to 16 oz. of water in trigger sprayer and apply to areas where dog or cat rests to repel fleas and deodorize. Add a capful of Sol-U-Mel to bath water as well.
ticks on Dogs & Cats - To remove embedded ticks, apply a drop of T36-C5 to a cotton swab and dab on the tick and on the site where it is embedded. Then grasp it slightly on the very edge and keep giving it a good pinch with the tweezers (as if biting it, but do not pull or yank out or it may break off with the head still embedded under the skin). In a few minutes, the tick will usually let go and back out. Reapply if necessary. If it does not release, gently rock with tweezers and apply more tea tree oil to it. Bathe the animal in ProCare pet shampoo.
Note: When pulling ticks off your dog or cat, always have a barrier between your hand and the tick itself. Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever can be transmitted.
Fly Repellent (Livestock) - Mix 2 oz. of Sol-U-Mel with 16 oz. of water. Spray directly on the animal. As mentioned above, works effectively on fleas as well.

Hamsters, Gerbils, Guinea Pigs - To control odor in or around a small animal's cage or to prevent communicable diseases, dab T36-C5 or spray a 1:20 diluted solution of Sol-U-Mel to the area 2 or 3 times each week.

Parakeets, Canaries or Tropical Birds - To prevent diseases among birds, use a 1:100 dilution of Sol-U-Mel sprayed once per week to the absorbent fodder material on the bottom of the cage. Spray each time the fodder is changed. WARNING! Some exotic birds are sensitive to the aromatic oils in T36-C5.

Rabbits - To clean their cage, mix 2 oz. of Sol-U-Mel with 16 oz. of water. Spray on cage and on the bottom tray to clean and deodorize. Scrub clean with brush. Rinse with water.

Why would you go to Melaleuca over Amway?

Why would you go to Melaleuca over Amway?

Okay:
Melaleuca doesn't require you to buy unwanted tapes, CD's, books, and go to meetings.

Melaleuca has been used for over 40,000 years by the Aborigines in Australia, by westerners since the 1700's, and in more products since 1985.

Melaleuca Inc. has never had to disguise its operations under another name due to bad press and image.

Melaleuca's products are WAY superior to Amways in every way! (I was an Amway customer/rep over 20 years ago and they still owe me money!)

You can SEE the difference with Melaleuca's products within a very short time period (for problems like smelly drains for example). Also, if you use Melaleuca for any length of time, and then try to go back to your old brands, you'll see why Melaleuca is the best choice! You'll smell, taste and notice the difference!

Whether you decide to do Melaleuca just as a customer or as a business, is your choice. What I like about Melaleuca is the fact that ANYONE can sign up to do business for FREE! Whether you join the business side of it or not is irrelevant, as the member's fee is still the same regardless!

Aegist - "If anything, at least you know Amway are a market stayer..." - true, over 75 years in business I believe. But, they've disguised themselves many times (Quixtar, Excelsior to name just two more recent ones). Also, they've lost profits year on year. They can't keep a good retention rate of either customers or reps. (2 people I signed up in 1987 made it to Diamonds, and a year or so later, just disappeared from Amway! I later found out that they were over $100,000 in debt because of Amway and broken promises made by dubious uplines. Amway was seeking them out to ORDER them back into the business!).

Melaleuca hasn't seen a single downturn in profits for the 20 years it's been in operation. They adhere to the FDA's rule very seriously, and market products for other companies that provide consumers with safer, less toxic products at superior quality and better prices! They've been number 1 in Fortune 500 listings for 5 years consistently. There's no pressure to build your business, buy tapes or books etc, and the products REALLY DO make a difference!

I can't say what Amway is like now, but my experience with them was all bad. My experience with Melaleuca has been nothing but sweet for over 6 years! (And I make just enough money each month from friends' orders to cover my own product costs!) [IMG]

Melaleuca: Where Caring for the Environment Comes Naturally

A Melaleuca graphic for MelaPowerMelaleuca’s outlook is simple: We believe in providing highly effective products with minimal environmental impact by using the best science and nature have to offer. Whenever possible, we look for safer, naturally derived formulas that give our products a competitive edge, and give you peace of mind.

Minimal environmental impact

We take seriously our responsibility to help people create clean, healthy homes and to protect the environment—both outdoors and inside your home. Wherever possible our innovative products utilize naturally derived, biodegradable ingredients that are even more effective than the grocery store brands without damaging the environment. And our super-concentrated products mean we use less plastic, less fuel and less water, which is good for all of us.

Best of science and nature

Melaleuca uses technology in our cleaning products that is different and far superior to that of our competitors. Rather than breaking down grime and stains with harsh chemical reactions, Melaleuca’s technology dissolves stains and dirt so that they can simply be rinsed away. Melaleuca uses a combination of natural enzymes, solvents and surfactants to dissolve dirt and stains. The enzymes break down stains naturally, but without sacrificing effectiveness.

Safer formulas

As we strive to help you achieve total wellness, Melaleuca is dedicated to bringing you safer products. Our formulas will never contain chlorine bleach, ammonia or other harsh, caustic chemicals. Developing friendly formulas for you and the environment is why we can offer products that don’t need childproof caps. Best of all, these safer formulas outperform the competition.

Responsibility to future generations

We hope and believe that many generations will follow ours, and we have a responsibility to each of them. Rapidly damaging the earth, our streams, our lakes, our forests and our oceans is easy. But it may take decades and huge costs to repair that damage, if it can be repaired at all. We believe preserving the earth for future generations is not only the responsible thing to do, but also a moral obligation to those who will surely follow us.
Melaleuca works hard to deliver only the highest-quality products. We promise to always lead the way in concentrating products, using the safest and best ingredients available, and formulating products to minimize adverse impact on the environment. Whenever possible, we will use natural substitutes that meet our quality standards for effectiveness, and deliver products that represent a better value for our customers.
