#SneezingTime: 5 Ways to Avoid the Sniffles This Allergy Season

The following is a sponsored post. All opinions are my own.

A few weeks ago, I wrote about seasonal allergies and how the folks at Angel Soft® have prepared me for #SneezingTime with some help from their allergy survival kit. Of course, the kit included some Angel Soft Facial Tissue.

If you are susceptible to pollen during allergy season (like I am), the following tips should help you fight the sniffles BEFORE they happen.

• KNOW YOUR POLLEN COUNT – Websites like AAAAI.org/NAB offer pollen and mold levels for just about every region. Remember: pollen levels are highest one warmer, dry, windy days, which means cooler, wet, less windy days are usually safer.

• ROCK SOME BIG SHADES – Oversized sunglasses (especially on windy days) not only makes you look cool, it can also help keep pollen from getting into your eyes.

• STAY CLEAN – Rinse your eyes in the morning and wash your hair at night if you’ve been outside for a while on high pollen days. This will help keep pollen from getting on your pillow at night.

• CHANGE YOUR CLOTHES – If you’ve been outdoors on high pollen days, change your clothes after you get home to avoid spreading pollen throughout your house.

• SKIP THE GEL – If you use hair gel, which can act like a pollen magnet, you might consider skipping it on high pollen days. To keep pollen out of your hair, you might even consider wearing a hat.

Of course, if you can’t avoid allergies – or if you find yourself with a summer cold (some people get them, but I don’t … knock on wood) – you can always pick up some Angel Soft Facial Tissue to help get you through the sniffles.

Like I said in my previous blog entry, Angel Soft’s Facial Tissue has all of the strength and softness of their bath tissue, but in a tissue designed for noses. It’s made with two layers and it comes in a lotion and non-lotion options. Bonus: the lotion option is made with THREE layers, making it Angel Soft’s softest and strongest facial tissue.
