Getting a good night's sleep helps in a million ways -- you think better, you feel better, and, quite honestly, you look better when well rested. And, while we can't give you eight hours of uninterrupted slumber each night, our Plumeria Bay Organic Cotton Pillow Giveaway will at least help you achieve that goal.

Have you entered yet? Do it now! It's really easy -- just go to the original post and follow the instructions. This is a completely luxurious pillow, so even if you're happy with what you lay your head on, don't you have a friend who would love to own it? You only have until Wednesday at 5 p.m. EST, so hurry!

You work hard, you play hard. And, you know what you need in order to look fresh and gorgeous? Beauty sleep, of course!

You can't get a good night's sleep without the right tools, and that's where I want to help you out. For this week's Fit Beauty Giveaway, I'm giving away an Organic Cotton Down Pillow from Plumeria Bay. The standard size, soft 650 fill pillow is filled with the finest white goose down, cushioned in German milled Organic Cotton and comes with the Perfect Fill service to ensure you lay your head on the comfiest surface imaginable.

Plumeria Bay doesn't only offer luxurious down pillows -- they offer down comforters, too, so you can surround your entire body in luxury.

That carton of milk in your fridge is stamped with an expiration date, but what about your pillow? Prescription medications, mattresses, vitamins, contact lens solution, and other items all need to be replaced after some time. It's important to replace these items to preserve your health -- in time allergens can build up or the efficacy of the product can wear off. But how do you know what needs to be replaced... and when?

• Smoke alarms. Change detectors after 10 years.
• Pillows. Replace bedroom pillows once a year.
• Mattresses. Replace after 5-10 years.
• Vitamins. Replace after two years.
• Fire extinguishers. Replace after 10 years.
  

Knowing when to replace items as they wear out can help keep your family safe and healthy.
