The Wrinkle Releaser Good Housekeeping Swears By

Good Housekeeping considers "Downy Wrinkle Releaser Plus a godsend."  See Verified Consumer Reports and Price


How It Works

Ripples disappear as fabric dries, in about five to 10 minutes. Just spritz, tug, and — presto! — it erases wrinkles, removes odors from clothing and bedding, and eliminates static.
Most Popular

Best Ways to Use It
It's most effective on lightweight to medium-weight fabrics, like pillowcases and light cotton clothes. For deeply wrinkled or heavier fabrics (e.g., denim, drapes), use it in addition to ironing. As a water-based formula, it's not recommended for dry-clean-only materials like silk and rayon.

Additionally, we may begin to see some fine lines and textural changes."  In your 40s, "...the dark circles may become more prominent, along with more visible lines. Oftentimes, these you will begin to report that their eyes are giving them a 'tired look' even when they feel fresh."

Keeping Your Pet Safe In The Car

"It’s important to keep your dog secured just like the rest of your passengers, according to the renowned nonprofit Center for Pet Safety. Jennifer Stockburger, Consumer Reports’ child-safety expert, says “it’s as much about your safety as theirs.” That’s because if the vehicle stops short, your unrestrained pet could turn into a dangerous projectile. Pet products are an unregulated $60 billion industry. Some companies label their products as “tested” or “crash-tested,” but there are no government or industry standards for pet-safety items, says the center’s founder, Lindsey A. Wolko. So the group did its own independent tests of crates, harnesses, and pet carriers. (They were funded by Subaru to cover the costs of the crash tests.) In the end, only a handful of products earned the center’s crash-test certification. For pet carriers, they were the PetEgo Jet Set Forma Frame Carrier with an Isofix-Latch Connection (Isofix-Latch Connection is a separate item.) and the Sleepypod Mobile Pet Bed with PPRS Handilock. For pet crates, Gunner Kennels G1 Intermediate, with 8’ Tie-Down Straps. (8' Tie-Down Straps are a separate item.) And for pet harnesses, the Sleepypod Clickit Sport. To learn more, go to centerforpetsafety.org." NOTE: For complete product information and verified consumer reviews, click each item. SOURCE: Consumer Reports
