"Did you know that May is Melanoma Awareness month? Melanoma is one of the most serious forms of skin cancer. 1 in 5 Americans will develop skin cancer in the course of their lifetime, so it's important for us to protect our skin. With the warmer months approaching, many of us will spend more time outdoors and in the sun. Dorfman Pacific's LP54 roll up  visor along with LP157, a floppy style brimmed hat both provide a good level of sun protection while remaining stylish!

LP54 comes in an array of colors and retails for $25. This paper braid hat also made it to O, The Oprah Magazine as one of her favorites! The roll up feature makes it perfect for travel and a must have.

LP157 is also paper braid and comes in 4 color variations. This particular hat carries the UPF sun protection factor of 50 plus and bounces back into shape making it another great option for travel at $25."

What we thought:  This hat is my new favorite summer accessory!  Living 2 blocks from the water means we spend A LOT of time at the beach year-round, especially when all the visitors flock to our home for summer vacations:)  Because I am fair-skinned and freckled, I am very prone to burn within just minutes of sun exposure. The Scala visor is a fashionable way to keep the sun out of my eyes and shade my whole face from those damaging rays.  This visor, along with a lot of sunscreen helps me brave the beautiful beach without fear of getting burned.  It also folds up so it can be stowed in the beach bag easily and then pops right back to it's original shape.  It comes in several colors to match your beachwear wardrobe as well!  All of these factors along with the affordable price point make this visor a summer must-have:)  ABCD Diaries gives the Scala Visor an A+!

Be prepared for Bug Season with Combat Ant and Roach Bait Strips

"Did you know that there’s an actual Bug Season? From March through October, roach and ant populations multiply in the hot and humid weather, causing more bug problems in homes and creating more anxiety, stress and embarrassment among Americans!

In fact, a recent survey conducted on behalf of Combat asked people if they’ve ever experienced a bug problem and just how embarrassed they were about it.  Did you know 52 percent of Americans have experienced ant or roach problems in their home, AND 20 percent of American’s who have ever had an ant/roach problem in their home have not invited people into their homes because of their embarrassment!

Don’t let pesky pests ruin your summer plans this Bug Season! To help keep the insects at bay, Combat recommends:

·         Storing all food in airtight containers

·         Sweeping and vacuuming regularly

·         Keeping vegetation from touching the outside of your home

·         Cleaning all surfaces to remove any food residue

As the weather becomes warmer, Combat would like to make sure you’re prepared to defend your home against insects during Bug Season by introducing you to Combat’s Roach and Ant Killing Bait Strips. The new bait strips quietly kills roaches and ants at the source as they bring the bait back to the nest, eliminating the infestation completely. With its discreet design, the bait strips’ adhesive backing also offers versatility and can be placed out of reach of kids and pets.  For more prevention tips, please visit combatbugs.com/prevention-tips."

What we thought:  We tried the ant baits since we usually get invaded this time of year.  They worked really well and we've seen very few ants compared to what we usually see.  These baits were really easy to use.  We just set them behind the microwave and along the paths the ants usually take to get into the pantry.  It was that simple!  These baits are an easy and affordable way to curb your ant and roach invasion this bug season:)   ABCD Diaries gives Combat's Bait Strips an A+!
