Fight Cravings. Burn Fat. It’s That Simple.

by Lisa Gal

Raw fitness is your gateway to Extraordinary Health®. Raw Organic Fit, our Raw, organic, high-protein powder, is specifically formulated to enhance your diet and exercise program, empowering you to lose weight, build muscle and restore balance. Raw matters because heat and processing can denature protein, reducing its availability to your body. Our Certified USDA Organic plant proteins in Raw Organic Fit are produced at low temperatures, preserving their complete amino acid integrity, and Raw Organic Fit has a delicious flavor. Raw Organic Fit Protein Powder boosts energy, builds muscles and helps you stay fuller longer. We are happy to have Garden of Life back in our Hollywood Swag Bags being gifted to the nominees and talent staying at the Four Seasons Hotel this red carpet weekend.

Turn Forty with a Smile from Tara Freeman

by Lisa Gal

Knowing that you aren’t alone in this whole midlife crisis thing is somewhat reassuring, or at least humorous. Australian author Tara Freeman reveals insights into her life in “Fine Wine and a Midlife Crisis” in a straightforward yet startlingly honest way. Inspired to help others and fulfill her goal of writing a book before she turned 40, Tara has dedicated her memoir of sorts to “all the women who helped make the bad times good and the good times memorable.” So grab a glass of wine and read her telling look into her approach to 40. I’m sure you will be able to relate, but this time with tears of laughter. Lucky are the 2017 red carpet nominees and talent staying at the Four Seasons Hotel this weekend as they will each receive a copy in their Hollywood Swag Bag honoring the weekend event.

Luxury Briefs for your Beau

by Lisa Gal

As a woman I must admit, we have so many styles and fabrics for our unmentionables, but what about for men? You are pretty much stuck with cotton, most likely some kind of woven knit or cotton blend.  But men, what if you could have a velvet front panel and undercarriage incorporated (plush side in of course)? Pretty sure that would put a skip in your step. Well, wish no longer because the brainchild of Elephant Trunks, Ilenna Copley from Australia, has made her dream come to fruition. She has also expanded her brand to include Everyday Elephants, Wet Elephants (swimwear), custom elephants and more coming soon! Tomorrow these luxury briefs will be gifted in the Hollywood Swag Bags being giving to the nominees and talent staying at the Four Seasons Hotel this award show weekend.

Make All Year the Season of Giving

by Lisa Gal

If you are looking for a new opportunity for giving this year, consider the California based Alabaster Mobile Clinic. According to Alabaster the clinic’s strategy of care is characterized by “a “household model,” which means health services are provided through individual home visits within each community.” Their focus was building a clinic in Kenya and bringing water to the location. This past summer they wanted to deepen their ties there, so in addition to continuing quality medical care through a series of clinics, they created a program aimed at building connections, empowering youth and understanding the community through the eyes of their hosts. The Alabaster Mobile Clinic is a non-profit, charitable healthcare organization that is the featured charity affiliated with the Hollywood Swag Bags this Golden Globe Weekend.

Luxury Caps Straight Out of Brooklyn

papaoriginals

by Lisa Gal

Luxury and baseball cap are not two terms you usually hear together, unless of course you are talking Papá Originals baseball caps. Simply classic and fashioned after the caps from the 1860’s, founder Raphael brought back not only a traditional style with a high profile crown, but he also used one of the last cap factories in the US. Comprised of pure charmeuse silk, cotton canvas and stoned oil leather, the minimalistic, high class design lends itself to anything your wardrobe has to offer. They are sure to be a hit in the Hollywood Swag Bags being gifted to the guests and nominees of the Four Seasons Hotel this award show weekend.

Tea for Days, 40 to be Exact

teaforte

by Lisa Gal

A taste for every occasion is inside the 40 Pyramid Tea Forte Tea Chest Tasting Assortment. If you can part with the elegant pyramid infusers long enough to submerge them in water, you will find their decadent aromas lead the way to a tasting experience like no other. Delicate yet refreshing is the White Ambrosia. Want something a little more euphoric that replaces dessert? Try a cup of the Hazelnut Truffle. Looking for something a little more bold and traditional? I would head for the Earl Grey. Whatever your poison, Tea Forte has the potion. This beautiful collection will be included in the Hollywood Swag Bags being gifted to the guests and nominees staying at the Four Seasons Hotel this red carpet weekend.
