Costco has some beautiful Poinsettias right now for the holiday season. My mother loves flowers and the such. Her birthday is January 3rd, and I was thinking of getting her one for her birthday, however I’m not exactly familiar with how often they should be watered or their longevity? I’m worried if I wait to buy it after Christmas, they will all be gone.

My question is, if I bought it next weekend, would it last another week and a half with proper care? And what tips would you give me regarding caring for it? Obviously as I am up in Canada and we’re expecting a blizzard tonight, it’ll be kept indoors.

I would like to use this flower for a wedding but am afraid if I use it for the centerpieces the day before the reception, they might die and look gross.

Albrecht Bracher asked:


The best skin creams for maintaining health and longevity of youthful, sexy appearance are all-natural. And I have found some of the very best natural skin care cream to come from the Xtend Life company, which asks us to “love life, live longer”.

Why do I think these are among the best skin creams? Well, for one thing, the company refuses to use anything in its creams that isn’t so safe that you could literally eat it without getting sick or being harmed in any way (because, as they see it, whatever you put on your skin does get absorbed by your body over time and therefore you ARE eating it). Now if that alone doesn’t sound like an important trait that the very best natural skin care cream products would have, I don’t know what else does.

But you may ask, why are they so uptight about this standard in their skin creams? Well, the Xtend Life scientists did a lot of research into the already existing and big name brands of skin cream and they mostly didn’t like what they found.

What they found was a lot of stuff that they didn’t feel the best skin creams should contain. Things they found regularly used in skin creams included: acrylamide, which possibly leads to breast cancer; alcohols–and not the waxes, but the kind which do the opposite of what skin care creams should be doing and actually dry out or otherwise irritate the skin; dioxane, which is a synthetic derivative of coconut that contains high concentrations of a chemical “known to the State of California to cause cancer”; the cheap mineral oil derivative known as liquid paraffin, paraffin wax, or petrolatum which clogs the pores, interferes with skin’s ability to eliminate toxins and so encourages acne and other disorders, and can cause photosensitivity while stripping the natural oils from the skin causing chapping and dryness along with premature aging…and even more skin-harming substances.

None of these things are used in what are, as I said I believe them to be, among the very best natural skin care cream products on the market–those offered by Xtend Life. .

And here’s another reason to consider them among the best skin creams: these guys use more than 40 active ingredients in their products–all as natural as possible and proven in clinical trials to be effective.

What’s so special about that, you ask? Well, unlike many skincare companies, who use only miniscule amounts of certain active ingredient just so they can add them to the label, this company always uses the optimum amount of every ingredient–in fact, the very same amount of each ingredient as used in clinical trials to achieve measurable results. That’s what any alleged manufacturer of the best natural skin care cream products should be doing, to me.

So, you want to maintain your healthy, sexy, vigorous look? For finding the best skin creams to achieve this, my money’s on Xtend Life .
