If you're on your feet all day, or if you're just getting older and have feet/legs prone to swelling, and old time remedy is still a great solution, but now you can skip having to sit with your feet in a pail of water, or soak in the tub, thanks to this new line of Epsom based products!

Epsom-It is woman-owned, patented, and made in the USA, transforming age-old Magnesium Sulfate into a modern solution for families on the go. Unlike messy foot soaks, Epsom-It products are 30–50x more concentrated and designed for real-world use…like mid-day reapplications while waiting in line for a ride, or post-park recovery at the hotel. Whether you're prepping for a day of park hopping or recovering from it, this lotion-and-rollerball duo belongs in every travel bag, stroller pouch, or carry-on.

Epsom-It sent us 2 of their products to check out:

1. Epsom-It Calming Foot Lotion:  Fast-absorbing, greaseless, and fragrance-free, this lotion is fortified with natural Urea (a natural moisturizer), to penetrate deep below the skin, to calm and soothe tired and sore feet, ankles, leg cramps, and restless legs after a long day of standing or intense workouts. Apply as needed. Both Miss Grace and I found that when we used the roller ball during the day, then this lotion at night, we woke up with soothed feet and legs, with greatly reduced swelling! The combination was excellent to help reduce swelling especially! I love not having to take any medication, but to just use this lotion! Granny was right- Epsom magnesium WORKS!

2. Epsom Salt Calming Foot Rollerball - for easy use on the go, at work or when traveling, the Calming Foot Rollerball features a paraben, fragrance free (yeah, no menthol smell!) formula (the same as the lotion), that delivers instant, concentrated relief from soreness, swelling, and discomfort…anytime, anywhere. Non irritation and with a formula that dries very quickly on your skin, there is no need to worry about using it on the go! Perfect for kids and adults, this may be your new addition to the sports bag! We have loved being able to use this anywhere for soreness and pain, and not smell like traditional menthol products! And it works just as quickly as those ones we had been using! With her fibromygalia pain, she likes being able to have something on the go that doesn't make her smell "like an old person", LOL

Did you know that your body needs magnesium for over 300 biochemical reactions, including muscle relaxation and nerve function? In fact, most women are deficient in magnesium, which is why these products are SO great = not only do they work really well, but they help your body heal with ingredients it needs! While both these products can be used on legs and muscles too, they do have formulas geared for muscles and nerves (featuring Arnica and Capasain as well). If you sign up for the Epsom-It email newsletter, you can also get 10% off your first online order! You can find the full line at your local Walgreens, Walmart, GIANT, Stop & Shop, Weis, Raley's, and Meijer stores as well! Once you try them, you won't go make to smelly messy products!

And speaking of messy....

Who likes cleaning the inside of their microwave?

Right- absolutely nobody! Especially when you know you have spills and stuck on food, right (I see you moms with teens!)??

How about a fun items that makes it soooo easy to clean, that even those elusive teens might want to use it? The Pund'it Micro Nuke, Microwave Steam Cleaner and Deodorizer is a fun nuclear reactor  shaped microwave cleaner that uses water and/or vinegar, to soften grime and stains, so they can be effortlessly wiped away from your microwave. Engage the reactor and clean your microwave with atomic steam in only 4 minutes, with this fun cleaner! Simply add water, or you can combo with vinegar for tough cleaning, and lemon for freshness, replace the top and microwave for 4 minutes (no longer at any one time), then watch the steam come out the top, and then open the door and simply wipe away your mess- easy peasy ( you know we LOVE easy peasy here!). 

As you can see, I tested the micro nuke with our microwave at work- it was sooooo bad!

Now I just used water, as I wanted to see how it worked with the different products. Thanks to the easy to see fill line, it takes all of 5 seconds to get it ready to use! Due to the blacking on the outside of the door, it was hard to get a pix of the steam, but it is there! You can see just how much steam it put out by how wet the microwave door became! Then it was as simple as wiping with a paper towel. No scrubbing, no extra cleaner, just wipe and it was CLEAN! Now the glass plate could probably have benefited from a touch of vinegar being added, but it came clean after one more round with the Micro Nuke, with just water. I had accidentally left the lemon at home, but I will rerun it with the lemon to help erode the funky smell inside! I did run it at home with vinegar and lemon, and everything came off in one swipe and the microwave smelled totally fresh! And I feel so much better not using harsh chemicals inside, where we cook food! 

The Micro Nuke is perfect for gift giving all year round, so make sure you throw it on the Christmas list this year!
