1. Because Market Disposable Underwear for Women

Challenge: One of the challenges of aging that we women have to deal with is leaking whenever we laugh or sneeze.

Solution: Attractive disposable underwear that keeps you from having embarrassing moments.

Do you wet your pants on occasion but feel embarrassed buying disposable underwear at the market? Wouldn’t it be easier if you could have them shipped to your door?

Because Market disposable panties are made with a breathable cotton blend so they never feel like diapers.

There’s a quiz on their website you can take to make sure you get the exact size and style you need depending on your needs from minor drips to heavier streams. Each pantie is lightweight, flexible, and has maximum absorbency.

You will also find pads, men’s products, wipes, skincare, and supplements on their website.

The company sent me the Willow style below.   And look! They come in three classy colors!

I choose not to model them because well, they’re underwear.

But I can tell you they’re soft and comfortable and if I start laughing really hard I won’t have to worry about peeing my pants.

Thank you to Because Market for sending me a package of panties!

2. Gloves in a Bottle

Challenge: Dry irritated hands because of weather, aging, and over-sanitizing.

Solution: An alcohol-free silky hand lotion with a protective layer that lasts.

During the winter or if you live in a dry climate your hands can get irritated and uncomfortable. Add to that our constant use of hand sanitizer and it gets even worse. Gloves in a Bottle is a southing hand lotion for extremely dry hands. And there is no alcohol in the formula, which can dry hands even more.

It has a shielding lotion that helps to rebuild the skin allowing it to retain its own natural oils. If winter weather, excess washing, or other factors are making your hands look old, Gloves in a Bottle adds a protective and silky layer to your skin that can last through four hours of washing and sanitizing and never feels greasy. You can even use it on your feet, body, or face.

The product has over 4,000 five-star reviews on Amazon. Give it a try.

3. Stiff Mother Trucker

Challenge: Aches and pants as a result of aging.

Solution: A fast-working and all-natural cream that works.

Another great product for stiffness, which is always an aging challenge is Stiff Mother Trucker. Don’t you just love the name? It really describes how we feel when we’re stiff.

It’s an all-natural formula that is paraben, gluten, sulfate, and artificial dye-free. You’ll love it if you have sore muscles, inflammation from bee and insect bites, back pain, foot pain, carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, stiff neck, and other aches and pains.

All you do is put a dime-size drop on your sore spot, rub it in for about 30 seconds and then let it work. It has a slight peppermint/camphor scent and stimulates your body’s natural functions to soothe pain and inflammation. Made in the U.S.A.

4. Pill Organizer

Problem: Too many pills and vitamins to keep track of.

Solution: A pill organizer with compartments for all sizes of medication.

For those who take multiple medications or supplements, one of the problems with pill organizers is that not everything fits in them. The AUVON Weekly Pill organizer is divided so you can organize 3-times-per day doses and gives you enough room to fit extra large capsules.

It’s colorful and still compact enough to pack in a suitcase and is made of sturdy plastic that won’t fall apart when you open and close it.

This handy pill organizer is made with non-toxic materials and the company offers a 12-month warranty if you experience any issues with it.

5. Satu Gel Wipe

Problem: Keeping your butt clean in an environmental way.

Solution: A gel you can use on toilet paper instead of wet wipes.

In an effort to be friendly to the environment, and our plumbing, we often use toilet paper that is less than effective when it comes to wiping our butts. Hey, everyone has to do it, right? Wet wipes work, but can destroy your pipes and take up room in landfills.

Satu Laboratory came up with a gel wipe for sensitive skin that you can put on your toilet paper to make sure you get as clean as can be. Avoid streaks on your underwear and feel fresh as a daisy.

You can use it on any type of biodegradable toilet paper and it is unscented.

I think this is an ingenious idea. Don’t you?

6. No-Show socks that don’t stink

Problem: Socks that fall down and feet that get stinky.

Solution: No-show socks that come in a tube that will keep them smelling good.

I have always had the issue of wearing short socks under my shoes that always slip down. Sockshh has an answer for that because their socks are comfortable and stretchy but have silicon strips on the back of the heel that stops slippage.

They also come in a tube with a scented sachet so your feet won’t stink after you wear them for a while. And, they won’t clash with your outfit because they don’t show if you are wearing sneakers or even loafers.

I am often sensitive to scents but the sachets are mild and the socks are way down by your feet so you can’t smell them. I think they make fun gifts as well. Free local shipping.

If you know anyone with stinky feet, be sure to buy them a pair.
