Shopping Savings: Prescott Frost Grass-Fed Beef Cyber Monday Deal

Prescott Frost, great grandson of American poet Robert Frost, is offering a very special Cyber Monday deal on his succulent, grass fed, grass finished USDA certified organic beef.

There are two special gift packs available for the foodie on everyone's list. The gift packs already provide a savings of more than 24% AND on Monday, November 28th, you can enter the code "CyberMonday" at checkout to save an additional 20% off any order - that's almost 50% off the price of Prescott Frost beef on either of the gift packs! The code is good on non-gift pack orders too, of any size.

Raised in the Sandhills of Nebraska - what those in the know call the "Napa Valley of beef" - each cut of Prescott Frost beef is a celebration for the senses. From filet mignon to ground beef to 100$ organic hot dogs, Prescott Frost beef is available to ship anywhere in the U.S. and orders placed by December 20th are guaranteed to arrive by Christmas

Buying Green: Skin Care for Athletes

The title of this post is "skin care for athletes" and that's the name of the company I'm highlighting - but their products aren't just for athletes. The company boasts it has the only completely natural and organic skin care designed for athletes, and they're probably right - there's lots of natural skin care products out there, but I haven't seen any designed specifically for those who do a lot of physical activity.

The products are designed for preparing the body for workout, or for recovery. That's something pretty unique. They use a variety of natural additives, such as coconut, rosemary, shea butter, and more - both ones I'm familiar with and ones I haven't seen in skin care - to nourish the skin, invigorate the body, and motivate the mind.

Do they work? Well, I'm not an athlete quite at the level they promote it for (no major endurance sports) but I do work out on a very regular basis and have two little girls to chase around. I was very happy with the Tri-Body wash sample I got. It had a pleasant, refreshing scent, lathered well, and rinsed off cleanly.

Right now they have several gift collections available too, so if you know an athlete looking for green products, it makes a great gift.

Products are certified organic and cruelty-free, paraben free, and have signed the campaign for safe cosmetics. For more information, follow @athletesskin, like Skin Care For Athletes on Facebook, watch Skin Care for Athletes videos or read the Green Fitness blog.
