    Timeless Skin Care Announces Partnership with TerraCycle

    September 1, 2020 /

    Timeless Skin Care and TerraCycle are delighted to announce their partnership to create a national recycling program to further Timeless’ sustainability efforts. As one of the fastest growing skincare brands out of the U.S., Timeless Skin Care serves customers around the globe.

    The California-based skin care company launched the Recycling Envelope program on August 3rd across the United States, where Timeless serves over 220 000 unique customers a year.

Sustainability, along with clean, concise formulas, are very important to our customers. TerraCycle is the perfect partner to assist us in continuing our efforts to care for the health of our skin and the planet.”

TerraCycle will collect and recycle the 2 Eye Serums, the Hydrating HA Sprays and the customer favorite, 20% Vitamin C + E Ferulic Acid Serum. By volume, TerraCycle recycles over 97% of the waste that they collect.

    Any Timeless customer can participate in the free program, which involves completing a simple form to receive the free envelope and mailing label, and then filling the envelope with up to three Timeless plastic products to mail in, postage free. https://www.terracycle.com/en-US/brigades/timeless-skin-care

    Three Paws’ New Family by Karen Struck

    September 1, 2020 /

    NEW CHILDREN’S BOOK SHOWS THAT FAMILY COMES IN MANY DIFFERENT FORMS, AND OFTEN IT IS OUR DIFFERENCES THAT BECOME OUR STRENGTHS

    Following her delightful and beloved debut children’s book, Three Paws, author Karen Struck is back at it again with her latest release, Three Paws’ New Family [Page Publishing, March 2020]. Through gorgeous illustrations and a fun new cast of characters, Struck takes readers right back to the heart of the Alaskan wilderness for another adventure with Boots, her adorable three-pawed Grizzly bear and his new buddies.

    In Three Paws’ New Family, Boots befriends a black bear named Sockeye and her Mexican brother, Pepe, the iguana. Sockeye has lost her mother and is not old enough to live on her own. Her prayers are answered when she meets little Pepe, who escaped his human family’s home in Ketchikan to explore the beautiful Alaskan wilderness but lost his way back home. A lonely bear cub and a lost iguana become a “family” relying on each other for companionship, friendship, and survival skills.

    When Boots comes face-to-face with the open jaws of a hungry lion, he is left to wonder who will help him. If he survives this attack, how will he defend himself in the future with only three paws? The answer may be waiting for him high above in the mighty Sitka spruce, the official state tree of Alaska.

    “Every family looks different, and family can come in many different forms,” says Struck. “What is most important is knowing who will be there for you when you need them most – that is what true family is!”

    Around the launch of Three Paws’ New Family, Struck is available for interviews, Q&A’s, and byline articles and can discuss topics such as:

    ·      The true meaning of family

    ·      How to use Three Paws’ New Family to teach your children about the different types of families there are

    ·      How our differences are actually strengths

    ·      What true friendship means, and how to teach your children to be a good friend to others

    “I hope Three Paws’ New Family helps kids that come from unconventional families see that all of our families are different,” adds Struck, “and that the most important thing is, your family loves you unconditionally, and always has your back, no matter what.”

    KAREN STRUCK discovered the joy of children’s literature as she read to her daughter each night. She was inspired by the Harry Potter book series, and decided to take writing courses through the Institute of Children’s Literature.

    Karen is also a registered nurse and works in the aesthetic industry, performing laser treatments combined with injectables for skin rejuvenation. She works with her husband, Steve, a plastic surgeon in Atherton, California. Residing in Los Gatos, California, Karen has a daughter named Rachel and two stepchildren, Danni and Evan Struck.

    Connect with Karen on Instagram and Facebook, and at www.karenstruckauthor.com.

    Three Paws’ New Family  is available through Amazon and other major booksellers.

    BUMKINS JOINS BORN THIS WAY FOUNDATION FOR ITS THIRD ANNUAL “#BeKind21” CAMPAIGN

    September 1, 2020 /

    Today, Bumkins and Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation – with support from 150 additional partners – announced the launch of Born This Way Foundation’s third annual #BeKind21 Campaign. As communities across the world face the trauma of a pandemic, the ongoing racial inequalities, and a host of global challenges, this campaign encourages everyone to build habits that promote wellness and cultivate kindness through action.

    From September 1st to September 21st, the campaign invites schools and colleges to kick off the new school year by establishing kinder habits, and for corporate partners, nonprofit partners, and all other participants to head into the fall with a spirit of compassion and kindness across their organizations and in their communities.

    “Bumkins is excited to be a part of the #BeKind21 campaign. We believe the foundation for kindness begins at home. Through the Bumkins network of parents and caregivers, we hope to kick off conversations about kindness throughout the month of September with the goal of encouraging our community to be kinder to themselves as well as to instill that kindness in their children, neighborhoods, and beyond.” – Jakki Liberman, President, Bumkins

    Bumkins will participate in the challenge by encouraging making kindness a habit within our community of parents, caregivers, and children. Using #BeKind21 Bumkins will share our acts of kindness on social media and our website, throughout 2020 and beyond. Also partnering on the challenge are more than 150 schools, nonprofit organizations, government institutions, sports teams, and corporations across the country.

    “This campaign aims to create a culture of kindness and foster healthy communities,” said Cynthia Germanotta, co-founder and president of Born This Way Foundation. “Our #BeKind21 initiative is an opportunity for all of us to put kindness into action. We believe that being kind is advocating for a world that values, validates, and respects all people. Together we are building a movement based on actions that create a future that is kinder, braver, and more just.”

    Studies have found that performing acts of kindness can boost happiness (Dunn, Aknin, & Norton 2008) and increase feelings of self-worth and calm while decreasing feelings of depression (UC Berkeley, Greater Good Science Center). Born This Way Foundation’s research found that young people who describe their environments as kind are more likely to be mentally healthy. That’s true for youth in high schools, colleges, and workplaces.

    This year’s #BeKind21 Campaign will build on last year’s effort during which, with support from over 130 partners, 1.6 million participants engage in over 41 million acts of kindness. Individuals who take the pledge will receive exclusive kindness suggestions, tips, and inspiration from Born This Way Foundation’s co-founders and partners, and have a chance to be featured on ChannelKindness.org.

    Old Trapper Introduces New Flavors of Its Shareable Big Bags of Deli-Style Beef Sticks

    September 1, 2020 /

    Forest Grove, Ore. – 2020 Launch – In a market sphere where shrinking product size is the norm, Old Trapper is focusing on expanding its product offerings to further meet consumers’ desire for high quality product in large clear-view packages. The company recently launched two new flavors of its 15-ounce bags of Deli-StyleBeef Sticks. Jalapeno and Teriyaki seasoned are the latest options to come in the shareable bags. And because they are low in carbohydrates and sugars at only 2 grams of total carbohydrates with 9 grams of protein per serving, they represent a keto-friendly snack. 

    A December 2018 “Forbes” feature predicted, “You can expect to see more keto-friendly snack options and meals.” For those not in the know, “a keto diet focuses on low carbohydrate … foods.” Flash forward a year and the low-carb trend is showing no signs of letting up. In August 2019, MarketWatch reported, “Ketogenic Diet Market Size will grow at 5.5% CAGR to exceed 15,640.6 million USD by 2027.” That figure equates to more than $15.5 billion. 

    Old Trapper continues to cater to this growing keto market with its line of authentic meat snacks. To ensure its customers always have a tasty snack option, the company is constantly expanding its product offerings. The new Jalapeno and Teriyaki 15-ounce Deli-Style Beef Sticks are the newest taste temptations to accommodate Old Trapper’s hungriest fans. 

    New 15-Ounce Flavors of Deli-Style Beef Sticks 

    The new Teriyaki flavor combines the delicious spice of Old Trapper’s famous smoked beef with the tangy flavor of soy sauce. The result is arguably the world’s best tasting teriyaki beef stick. The Jalapeno Deli-Style Beef Sticks start with the same wood-fire smoked beef with the added bonus of jalapeno spiciness. 

    “The popularity of our Original flavor 15-ounce bags told us that our customers are looking for large quantities of quality beef sticks for a good price,” explains Robert Leary, Old Trapper’s Director of Marketing. “Our latest Jalapeno and Teriyaki versions of the shareable bags deliver more of what our market base is craving – we know this because of how fast they sell out at retailers. And because we are so proud of the appealing mahogany color, all our 15-ounce Deli-Style Beef Sticks are clear bagged so consumers can see the exact quantity and quality they are receiving.”

    Each 15-ounce bag of Old Trapper Deli-Style Beef Sticks retails for around $14. Each serving of both new flavors contains only 2 grams of total carbohydrates with 9 grams of protein making them a keto-friendly snack.
