MOONETTE – Organic Skincare for Mature Skin + Valentines Special
We are a Torrox-based company specialising in the creation of formulae which help prevent premature skin ageing. We are committed to making effective products at affordable prices.
Your skin health matters to us. How you feed your skin is as important as how you feed your body. Why settle for anything less than natural and organic?
As our skin is the first layer of our defence against microbial infections, ultraviolet radiation and environmental contamination it plays a vital role in our health. As we grow older, however, our skin becomes thinner, wrinkled, and more sensitive; hence it requires the use of treatments containing specific ingredients to the care of treating mature skin.
Recognising this need we have created a range of formulae which help
-slow down ageing process by smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
-improve facial complexion and eliminate blemishes.
At Moonette, we are passionate about health, beauty and plants. Your skin will benefit from the properties of botanic essential oils combined with a selection of nutrients for deep hydration, cell revitalization and antioxidant effect, all sourced from the finest natural ingredients with gorgeous fragrances.
Naturally, we care about our planet and feel the need to help reduce the sheer volumes of plastics waste that are generated daily around the globe. Presently, we are minimizing the usage of plastic materials in our production while seeking alternative forms of packaging. To help reduce pollution we are asking all local customers to recycle or reuse their Moonette skincare containers, and offering a small discount on future purchases to customers recycling containers.
Don’t miss out on our St. Valentine’s Day offer.
Get a 10% off on all items at Moonette’s online shop for yourself or someone you truly love and cherish. This exclusive offer only applies to Moonette Newsletter subscribers. Sign up if you are not a subscriber yet. **Free small testers are available on request**

{Translation, summary} 11/02/2022 19:40
-On Friday 11 February, Andalusia recorded a total of 5,209 Covid-19 positives in 24 hours, 4,417 fewer than the previous day, while 37 deaths were reported, one more than on Thursday.
-The incidence at 14 days stands at 601.3 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, down 16.7 points from the previous day, the first increase after a week of declines.
-By provinces, Seville has the most cases with 1,100 positives, followed by Malaga with 1,053, Granada with 612, Cordoba with 608, Cadiz with 567, Almeria with 519, Jaen with 434 and Huelva with 316.
-With regard to the 37 deaths, ten were reported in Jaén, seven in Granada, six in Seville, five in Málaga, three in Almería, three in Córdoba, two in Cádiz and one in Huelva.

Covid Malaga- Covid rate in Malaga is almost half of what it was a fortnight ago, but its fall is slowing down: {Translation} 11Feb22, 13:47
-The Covid rate in the province of Malaga is almost half of what it was a fortnight ago, but in the last few days its fall has slowed down. Coinciding with the end of the outdoor masks, the decline is stagnating. In addition, there are 14 times more newly infected than cured and five more deaths with the virus have been reported. On the positive side, the number of hospitalisations is dropping below 300, the lowest number in the last five weeks. That is the summary of the pandemic situation.
-Seen with some perspective, the incidence has been reduced. At the end of January it was 917.5 cases per 100,000 population and now it is 525.6. That is almost half in two weeks. But in the last two days it has stabilised and has hardly fallen. Last Thursday, 10 February, it went up after almost three weeks of steady decline. From 501.1 at the provincial level on Wednesday, it rose to 526.1 the following day. And this Friday it stands at 525.6 positive per 100,000 inhabitants. In other words, just 0.5 points less in the province as a whole than the previous day. In the capital, on the other hand, the incidence has increased. From 550.6 on Thursday to 556.6 on Friday. In Andalusia, it falls: from 618.1 positives per 100,000 inhabitants to 601.3.
-Figures provided by the Regional Ministry of Health and Families report five more deaths with the virus. This brings the total number of Covid-infected deaths in the province for the entire pandemic to 2,226.
-The number of new infections remains above 1,000. This Friday there are 1,053; which means that the cumulative figure since March 2020 is 245,772. With this number, the positives of the last few hours are 14 times more than those cured, which only amount to 74. In total, since the beginning of this global health crisis, the number of people who have overcome the disease amounts to 210,247.
-The number of people hospitalised has fallen below 300, a threshold not seen for five weeks. As of Friday, 295 people are in hospital, including 28 in intensive care. Daily hospitalisations remain high. In these almost two years a total of 12,732 people have been admitted to hospitals in the province; 1,112 of them in ICU.

High Tech Police Spying- Spanish police force to add ‘spy birds’ drones to flying squad: The director general of Spain’s Guardia Civil, María Gámez, gave the green light to one of the force’s most daring projects in recent years, to manufacture high-tech drones in the shape of large birds to spy on organised crime criminals, gangs or terrorists without being detected. The idea is to start the project with two prototypes of ‘spy birds’ to be used during secret operations. Photo:DRONE BIRD COMPANY.

Can Dogs Get COVID? Here’s What We Know: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it’s possible for animals to get COVID from people, but there’s a low chance of animals spreading the virus to humans. Most animals infected with the coronavirus had close contact with people who had COVID, such as pet owners and caretakers, the CDC said online.
Reports of animals infected with COVID have been documented worldwide, specifically in companion animals, zoo animals, mink on mink farms and wild white-tailed deer in the U.S.
The CDC advises people with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 to avoid contact with animals, including pets, livestock, and wildlife.

Do you have a torn or very damaged Euro note? This is what you can do with it: {Translation, summary}
-Banknotes that are stained, burnt, discoloured or missing a piece can be exchanged for another banknote of the same value that is in perfect condition. To do so, all you have to do is go to any branch of the Banco de España for inspection and request the exchange.
-In order to be exchanged, the general rule is that the banknote you present must still have more than half of its original surface or you must prove that the missing part has been destroyed. If the banknote is particularly damaged, it will be analysed by qualified staff from the Banknote Analysis Unit. They will decide whether it is genuine and can be replaced by a new one of the same value.
-When it comes to paying the corresponding money, all users requesting the exchange can choose whether they prefer to receive a new banknote or have the corresponding amount paid into the bank account of the financial institution indicated.
-Another option is to go to your bank and ask to exchange your banknote. It is likely that they will do you a favour and provide this service as long as you have an account with them, although they are under no obligation to do so as there are no regulations that expressly state this. It is therefore not certain that they will exchange banknotes as they will at the Banco de España.
