The postal service came through! and a SCAPE giveaway!

I think it was back in March, when I found an envelope from Stefano, the Black Knight in my mailbox.  He had sent me a keychain from Venice, but somewhere along the way, someone opened the envelope, and decided to take it for themselves.  Boooooo!!!

However, I was very happy yesterday, because I received another envelope from Stefano, and this time.......ding ding ding! Success! 

Stefano sent me another keychain, this time from his trip to Brussels, along with a kind note and DVD that shows the seaport where he works.  I had to laugh when I saw the keychain, it's a depiction of the Manneken Pis, a statue of a little boy peeing into the water below him.  Mike and I actually had dinner not to far from the statue during our visit to Brussels several years ago. 

Brussels has really good Belgian Waffles:

And now.....giveaway time!!!

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month.  It is now June, but that's no excuse, you need to wear sunblock every, single, day, 90% of skin cancers are caused by sun exposure, and 1 in 5 people will develop skin cancer in their lifetime.  Scary.

I wear sunblock, but my issues are that it either makes me break out, or when I sweat or swim, it drips into my eyes, which is never fun. 

This is where SCAPE comes in.  It was developed by Dr. Nic Martens, a Triathlete and surfer, who knew exactly what athletes needed when it comes to skin protection.  SCAPE is waterproof, sweatproof, and noncomedogenic (no breakouts!). 

 

I first started using SCAPE last summer, during all my hot, outdoor marathon training runs.  I used the SPF 30 Athlete Sunblock on my body, and for my face, I protected it with the Lip Balm, and the SPF 50 Face Stick.  I loved the stick, I would use it like a magic marker, and swipe it along my hairline, forehead, down my nose, and under my eyes.  It never ran, and I didn't burn.

This is an interesting point, when I used the lotion on my body, I felt like my skin didn't get as hot as it would have without the lotion.  As I read more about the product, I learned that SCAPE helps the skin breathe, it prevents dehydration, and as a result, your body temperature stays regulated while being active.  

So for today's giveaway to benefit The Children's Tumor Foundation, I have a SCAPE Moisturizing Face Stick, SPF 50, along with a bunch of sachets of the SPF 50 lotion, which are perfect for keeping in your car, purse, or gym bag.
