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

Social Security will raise taxes in 2024 on the self-employed who have paid contributions below their real income: {Translation, summary}
– The big change led by José Luis Escrivá consists of forcing the more than 3 million self-employed in our country to pay contributions based on their real income, which means taking away a large part of their autonomy. Until now, the self-employed could decide on the basis on which they wanted to pay taxes, and almost 80% of the self-employed chose to do so on the minimum basis. In other words, they preferred to pay less tax even if that meant less state coverage.
– Now, with the new change, the self-employed will have to pay contributions according to the income they earn each year. The new contribution system introduces a series of brackets in which, depending on the income that the self-employed person expects to earn, they will be taxed a certain amount. The self-employed who earn more than 1,700 euros a month will pay more contributions than in 2022 and those who earn less will remain the same or pay less tax.
– As of today, the confusion among the self-employed continues. 2023 has been the first year of adaptation, and those who have not updated their real income (by informing the Social Security of what they expected to earn this year) will be paying the same contributions as a year earlier.
– However, Escrivá’s department gave a warning a few days ago to the latecomers: they have until 31 October to report or his department will calculate what they have to pay more in 2024 (or less, the most unlikely case).
– “Since 1 January, if you were already registered as a self-employed worker, you have been able to report your income through the Importass “Modification of self-employment data” service. If you have not yet done so, you can do so before 31 October 2023. If you do not do so, in 2024 the contributions will be regularised on the basis of your income,” says the Social Security.
– Thus, the General Treasury of the Social Security (TGSS) will cross-check data with the Treasury to verify what each self-employed person earns. “It will proceed during 2024 to regularise the contribution in order to determine the definitive monthly contribution bases for the year 2023 for each worker, which will be carried out according to their annual income reported for this purpose by the corresponding Tax Administration, by means of an automated process, once the tax data are available after the income tax campaign”, they point out. Thus, as already published by Libre Mercado, the Treasury will play a leading role in determining the amount of taxes that the self-employed will have to pay to the Social Security in 2023.
– Once the Social Security has tracked the assessed self-employed person’s income, it will notify them telematically via NOTESS (the Social Security’s telematic notification system) of the result, which will be payable in most cases. “As this is a group obliged to receive notifications and communications by electronic means”, those who have to pay extra contributions will have no way out.
– The specific date of this analysis will take place in the second half of 2024 and “will depend on when the TGSS has all the information that must be sent by the Tax Administrations and which is necessary to carry out this regularisation”. The same will happen with the self-employed who do not update their contributions in 2024: “they will also be regularised during the second half of 2025 depending on the information sent to the TGSS by the Tax Administrations”, says Escrivá’s department.

ANDALUCIA

The Andalucian Regional Government implements tele-consultation in Primary Care: {Translation, summary}
– From next December, Andalucians will be able to receive medical consultations in Primary Care via the screen of their mobile devices and computers.
– The Regional Minister of Health, Catalina García, announced this Wednesday on Canal Sur Radio that teleconsultation will be implemented in Andalucia before the end of the year, a service that will complement face-to-face and telephone consultations with the aim of speeding up care and reducing waiting times.
– The details of this new care system are still being worked out, but the Junta’s objective is to set up a computer system that will allow doctors to attend patients via their office computer for matters that do not require face-to-face examination, which will allow the SAS to increase the number of patients attended daily by providing a telematic solution to patients with milder pathologies.
– This measure already exists in private healthcare and has been implemented in the emergency department of the Community of Madrid. The decision to implement it in Andalucia began with a pilot test in the Dermatology service of the Virgen Macarena Hospital in Seville, an offer that is already popularly known as the ‘teledermatologist’.

USA

The Biden administration admits immigration policy failure, says it is now using executive power to re-establish section of Trump’s wall in Starr County, Texas:
– The Biden administration announced they waived 26 federal laws in South Texas to allow border wall construction on Wednesday, marking the administration’s first use of sweeping executive power to pave the way for building more border barriers – a tactic used often during the Trump presidency.
– According to government data, about 245,000 illegal entries have been recorded in this region during the current fiscal year.
– “There is presently an acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers and roads in the vicinity of the border of the United States in order to prevent unlawful entries into the United States in the project areas,” Alejandro Mayorkas, the DHS secretary, stated in the notice.
– The Clean Air Act, Safe Drinking Water Act and Endangered Species Act were some of the federal laws waived by DHS to make way for construction that will use funds from a congressional appropriation in 2019 (mid-Trump era) for border wall construction.

Apple Issues Patch To Fix Overheating iPhone 15:
– Apple released the iOS 17.0.3 update on Wednesday, and the release notes stated that the update fixes “an issue that may cause iPhone to run warmer than expected.” According to testing done by ZDNet, the update does indeed solve the problem.

FINANCIAL

The collapse in US Treasury bonds now ranks among the worst market crashes in history:
– The bond-market sell-off that’s sending yields soaring is starting to eclipse some of the most extreme market meltdowns of past eras. Bloomberg reported Treasury bonds with maturities of 10 years or more had declined 46% since March 2020, while the 30-year bond had plunged 53%.
– Those losses are nearly in line with stock-market losses seen during the worst crashes of recent history – when equities slumped 49% after the dot-com bubble burst and 57% in the aftermath of 2008.
– Compared with previous bond-market meltdowns, long-term Treasurys are seeing one of the most extreme undoings in history. The losses are over twice as big as those seen in 1981 when 10-year yields neared 16%.
