If you’re looking for ways to stay cool this summer, you’ll love Pambra’s bra liner. This thin, super soft liner slips between your skin and your bra to absorb perspiration.  It keeps your skin and bra dry on hot and humid days, but it’s also great year-round. The company’s founder, Pamela Haven, also has a cause that is close to her heart.

Known for the Original Bra Liner, Pambra donates a portion of their sales to the Susan G. Komen Foundation’s fight against breast cancer. After Pamela herself lost her sister to breast cancer, she designed two mastectomy styles to help alleviate discomfort after surgery. The design even included a pink ribbon of hope.

Pambra’s line also includes a tummy liner that helps prevent heat rash and fungus that can develop under the abdominal fold. It helps to keep you dry…and confident. Thank you, Pambra!

Feeling the afternoon snack attack? Here’s some healthy snack options that are packed with protein and will help to keep you feeling satisfied.

Almonds. Combine almonds and apricots for a sweet and crunchy snack. Try reaching for unsalted, raw or dry-roasted almonds.

Yogurt. Greek yogurt has more than double the protein of standard American-style yogurt-and much less sugar.

Fruit shakes. Blend together a handful of berries, a banana, yogurt and a splash of orange juice, and you instantly have a nutritious shake!

Edamame. Try it before a meal or an afternoon snack. It’s packed with protein to keep you feeling fuller, longer.

Peanut butter & celery. Take one medium celery stalk, spread it with a tablespoon of peanut butter and you’ve got a quick and healthy snack.

Don’t forget to drink plenty of water throughout the day!

Use your hair conditioner to shave your legs. It’s cheaper than shaving cream and leaves your legs really smooth. It’s also a great way to use up the conditioner you bought but didn’t like when you tried it in your hair.

Elastic-backed sandals keep sliding down your heels? Put a small piece of double-sided tape to your ankle and press the strap to it — it stays all day!

Got something in your eye? Dampen a cotton swab with saline solution, gently contact your eye with the tip and gently roll it away. The cotton swab will attract the object as you move the swab away. Even works with contacts!

Solutions is proud to present BodyEssentials!

BodyEssentials is about women helping women. It began when three female colleagues at Solutions – Amy, Pam and Cheryl – found they had some common goals: to look good, live well and feel their best.

Eager to find the products that would best help them attain these goals, Amy, Pam and Cheryl put together a new catalog packed with the best ways for women of all ages to banish wrinkles, shed excess weight, whiten teeth and look sexier in jeans. The result is BodyEssentials, a collection of products that live up to their commitment to “Live well, feel good, look great.”
