Writing Prompt: A Call For Manners

In a time when “plz” passes for “please” and “thx” for “thank you,” it’s no wonder that people’s use of manners and etiquette has become, well, abbreviated.

But some things are worth holding on to. (No passing gas at the kitchen table is one off the top of my head, thankyouverymuch.) So I ask, what piece of etiquette will you never forsake? And from where or whom did you learn it?

This could be a tribute to Grandma. A social commentary. A plea for reform. It’s up to you.

We all look forward to reading your work. Simply, e-mail: editor@hopscotchforwomen.com. The deadline is up to you.

Cosmedicine's Speedy Recovery Exfoliating Cleanser

Cosmedicine's Speedy Recovery Exfoliating Cleanser

Ever feel like your face is covered in scales and needs a really good scrub to make it feel new and fresh again? Or maybe you feel like your pores have been packed solid with pudding?

What you really need to do is break up your clogged skin and let it breath. The best way to do that is with a very fine exfoliating cleanser. Did you know that most dermatologists recommend exfoliating your skin every two to three days?

This is because scrubbing your face not only removes dead skin cells, allowing newer cells to come to the surface (giving you a brighter complexion), but also loosens dirt’s tight grip on your oh-so-tiny pores.

Perhaps one of the best exfoliating cleansers out there is Cosmedicine’s Speedy Recovery Exfoliating Cleanser. It’s a fast-working, lightweight formula with some of the finest exfoliating granules ever, which help kill bacteria, rid your face of oil and debris, unclog congested pores, heal blemishes, and leave your skin looking ten times better than before.

This product is widely sold and can be found at Nordstrom or Cosmedicine.com and runs about $35 for 4.2 fl. oz. A bit expensive, but you definitely get your money’s worth.

Love this product.
