MOONETTE – Organic Skincare for Mature Skin
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.

SPAIN

EU MEPs conclude investigation, reproaches Spain for the high bureaucracy that prevents more agility in the funds: {Translation in full}
– This week’s visit to Spain by a delegation from the European Parliament’s Committee on Budgetary Control to examine the implementation of European funds has come to an end. It has done so with good news – it has found no evidence of fraud – but with some demands, especially in terms of speed and transparency.
– The head of the delegation, Monika Hohlmeier, gave a press conference at the European Parliament’s office in Madrid in which she concluded that Spain’s control systems for European funds suffer from “a series of delays” that prevent it from tracking information more completely. “We have not been given any information on the real accounting execution of the funds, we have not seen a chain that would be very useful that starts at the disbursement and ends at the end user,” the German MEP explained. The aim is to get to know “in detail” all the beneficiaries, although Hohlmeier acknowledged that this “is not easy” because there are “thousands and thousands of pieces of information that have to be cross-checked”.
– For this reason, she asked Spain to provide the information it is compiling on a “more accessible” platform in order to provide “more transparency”. During its visit to Spain, the delegation met with some representatives of autonomous communities, company directors and civil society, and the head of the delegation indicated that the administrative burden is “a common complaint”. “It is necessary to ensure that funds reach the economy and citizens quickly, securely and deliver results. We have been told of very technical and cumbersome procedures that need to be improved,” she lamented.
– After this analysis, which they now have to study with the European Commission and the Court of Auditors to draw up a report that will be made public in the coming weeks, the committee demands that the central government “deepen” its dialogue with the autonomous communities because although the “co-governance” solution is very positive, they have come to the conclusion that many of The EU Commission’s proposals are not being taken into account.
*Warns against lowering sentences for embezzlement*
– The committee also pointed out that the Sánchez government’s modification of the offence of embezzlement could harm the process of receiving EU funds. Hohlmeier reminded the government that Brussels has “zero tolerance” for corruption and demands that it be applied in the same way in Spain. “We are not the body that has to analyse whether or not this is being complied with, we will see what the European Commission tells us,” she said.
– “There should be no exceptions. We do not want to interfere in questions of the Spanish Penal Code, but in the event of a serious infringement, the question of exceptionality could be applied” (which cancels the receipt of European money), Hohlmeier explained to the media.
*Delay in pension reform*
– Although the delegation has found no evidence of fraud in the execution of the funds, they acknowledged that there is one unmet milestone, namely the pension reform, which the government promised to carry out by December 2022 and which is still pending. Hohlmeier assured that the meeting with the Minister of Social Security, José Luis Escrivá, on Tuesday afternoon was “very productive” and that she gave them “much more time than planned” to receive all kinds of explanations and information on the progress of this reform.
– The Commissioner did not venture to predict when the reform will be ready, but warned that the government must comply with it, because “they risk the consequences of not meeting this objective”. Her impression is that the government is “very committed” to this issue and that it will not sit back and do nothing. “There is no prospect of cutting off Spain for this reason,” Hohlmeier stressed.

How Spain will warn you via SMS of nearby dangers:
– On Wednesday February 22nd, the Spanish government officially activated a new mobile alert system that warns people in the country of nearby natural disasters or emergencies.
– The alerts will be sent automatically to all mobile phones in the affected area, a process known as reverse 112, and will be available in any part of the Spanish territory with mobile phone coverage, whether it’s 2G, 3G, 4G or 5G. It will be managed from all the emergency centres in each region, as well as in the enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla. You must, however, have a modern smartphone for it to be compatible with the system. The alerts will be in Spanish, as well as in English and any regional languages such as Catalan.

ANDALUCIA

Music licence hours for bars and tourist venues could be extended under Junta review:
– A proposed change to the law governing public entertainment in Andalucía could allow bars and other small tourist venues to play music from 1pm onwards – two hours earlier than at present.
That is according to a draft decree, seen by Europa Press, which would allow for an amendment to the 2018 law governing the playing of recorded or live music on terraces in tourist areas.
– The proposed amendment would allow for the earlier playing of music for up to six months within the calendar year. Music would need to finish at midnight as usual. Full article: https://www.surinenglish.com/andalucia/music-licence-hours-could-extended-under-junta-review-20230222221822-nt.html

Benalmádena pensioner loses 60,000 euros to bank card thieves and takes his own life:
– The victim was left with less than one hundred euros in his account after his life savings were stolen. Police have arrested eight individuals in connection with the crime.
– Three people have been arrested for allegedly stealing the card from the victim’s home. Four others arrested were employees of the establishments where the card charges were made, and are suspected of being in cahoots with the thieves. According to the investigations, these individuals colluded with the fraudsters by allowing the use of the bank card in their businesses and then sharing the proceeds and profiting from the illegal activity. An eighth individual was also arrested for his involvement in the scheme.

Three elderly women run over by a vehicle that suffered an accident in Torre del Mar: {Translation}

– The accident occurred at around 17:00 hours, when two cars collided at the junction of Avenida Antonio Toré Toré with the N-340 and one of them spun off and ran over the pavement until it hit the elderly women, who were sitting on a bench at the time, according to sources from the Local Police of Vélez-Málaga.
– The Centro de Emergencias Sanitarias 061, belonging to the Andalusian Health Service, evacuated the three victims to the Axarquia hospital, two of them with serious injuries. The drivers of the two vehicles also required medical assistance after the collision.

Spain’s National Police break up two networks fraudulently regularizing British citizens in Malaga and Ceuta:
– As reported in a statement released by the National Police today, Thursday, February 23, the force has broken up two criminal networks in Spain. One was based in the North African enclave of Ceuta, and another in the Malaga city of Marbella. After the departure of the UK from the European Union, these gangs were allegedly fraudulently regularising British citizens. A total of 47 individuals were arrested on suspicion of belonging to a criminal organisation
– As a result of information received from the Malaga Foreign Office, an investigation was launched. The police started looking into the suspected links between various law firms and a large volume of residency applications that aroused suspicions of having been tampered with. More than 200 residence application files of British citizens were subsequently analysed and falsehoods were uncovered in more than half of them. Most involved forged documents, mainly lease contracts, medical insurance policies, bank statements, invoices and other documents.
