Fill His Stocking to the brim with Boots No 7 Men

 

41ULK6RUnNL

My husband is really enjoying Boots No7 Energising Face Wash. Why does he like it so much? It’s simple, Boots No7 Men smells great! Also, because of its soap free formula, he can wash his entire face without stinging and irritation in and around his eyes like soap often causes. Boots No7  Men is specially formulated to leave his skin refreshed and will not strip the skin’s natural protection. Because men’s skin is thicker and often oiler than women’s, it needs special cleansing to keep it feeling fresh and looking healthy. Because he likes Boots No7 so much, I am filling his and my two son’s Christmas stockings with several of Boots No 7 Men skincare products. They are the perfect size and very affordable. I found  Boots No7 Men skincare at Walgreens, walgreens.com. You can also find Boots No7 Men at boots.com.

A few of the products I picked up were Boots No7 Men Post Shave Recovery Balm, Boots No7 Men Energising Face Scrub, Boots No7 Men Anti-Friction Shave Gel, Boots No7 Men Energising Hair & Body Wash and of course a Boots No7 Men Hydrating Shave Kit (perfect for traveling) will fill their stocking to the brim. If my husband likes this products, yours will too. Of course if you don’t have holiday stockings to fill, pick up some Boots No7 Men anyway….he will love you for it!

Fill Your Holiday Stocking with Oil Essentials

unnamed

It’s all about the oil and I am going crazy over Oil Essentials™ Beauty “OILS”. Oil Essentials™ are healthy, fragrant and so versatile that you will be putting drops of this precious oil in products you wouldn’t even think of adding oils to.  Oil Essentials™ has a line of six fabulous fragrances: Neroli & Avocado, Seabuckthorn Berry & Borage, Omega 3. 6. 9, Evening Primrose, Argan & Wheat Germ,  Sweet Almond & Macadamia and last but not least, Lavender & Rose Hip.

Once you choose the fragrance that is best suited for your senses, Oil Essentials™ can be used on your body, hands and almost anybody part where your skin is dry or you simply want the benefits of the oil. Let’s not stop there! A drop or two of your favorite Oil Essentials™ can be added to your favorite shampoo, conditioner, moisturizer, tub bath or try using the oil on your cuticles or scalp…..the ideas are endless.

One of my favorite Oil Essentials™ is LAVENDER & ROSE HIP. If you love the scent of lavender, you will love this oil. The aroma is fabulous and contains a gentle blend of lavender and rose hip oils, with the added nourishing effects of coconut, sunflower and meadowfoam seed oils. Each night I place a few drops in the palms of my hands and massage on my hands and arms. The formula is non greasy, absorbs quickly and the scent lingers for quite a while. I use the oils at night but they can be used any time of day.  Each Oil Essentials™ has it’s own special benefits but they all nourish your skin, enhance skin tone and texture, add shine and softness to your hair and most importantly, the oils are packed with sustainable blends of plant-based oils so they are health too use.

Oil Essentials™ recomends the following tips:

*add a drop of Oil Essentials™ to your favorite beauty products, including body lotion, shampoo, conditioner, and facial moisturizer, to reap the benefits

*Work Oil Essentials™ into nails to boost shine and strengthen nails

*Apply the oils directly to dry patches to hydrate skin

*Tame static hair by rubbing a drop of Oil Essentials™ into your fingertips and lightly smoothing down fly-a-way hairs.

*Gently apply a drop or two of oil to your face as part of your nightly beauty routine.

*Dab oil on pulse points to enhance perfume’s longevity.

*Add a few drops of Oil Essentials™ to a bubble bath to absorb the benefits.

*Add a drop of oil to your shampoo or conditioner for silkier hair.

Oil Essentials™ is made with natural and sustainable blends of eco-cert essential oils and fortified with an advanced anti-aging Luxmeadow E™ complex, Oil Essentials™ provides a one-stop beauty solution for all skin and hair types. All Oil Essentials™ products are FREE FROM parabens, sulfates, phthalates and synthetic colors.

CeraVe® Baby Moisturizing Lotion is perfect for protecting your baby’s skin from chaffing, cracking and drying.

I know my cousin will enjoying using CeraVe® Baby Wash & Shampoo. Her baby will smell fresh and clean will be left with beautifully soft skin.

Laughing Buddha has become my nightly Ritual

 

Rituals Laughing Buddha Fortune Shower Oil
Rituals Laughing Buddha Fortune Shower Oil is the perfect solution for dry skin. It reently occured to me why my skin is so incredibablly dry lately. Since the summer ended, I haven’t been moisturizing enough. During the summer, I always use sunscreen on my arms and legs so I don’t feel the dryness as much. So far this winter, I am having trouble with dry skin and it driving me crazy, especially at night. 

My newest solution for curing my dry skin is with  Rituals Laughing Budddah Fortune Shower Oil. This is not just your typical shower oil. With only a few squirts of the oil in a luffa sponge, Laughing Buddah Shower Oil works into a light silky soft  foam leaving you skin soft and nourished without a greasy feeling. I didn’t even believe it was an oil, it certainly didn’t feel like oil was on my skin.**

The Sweet Orange and Cedar wood ingredients, provides a  soothing and relaxing shower. Another nice feature with Rituals Laughing Budddah Fortune Shower Oil is that the oil will help extend the life of your tan. As stated by Rituals, “The oil hydrates your skin in the shower, so that you lose less pigment, meaning you can thus enjoy your holiday tan for even longer.”

**As with any products containing oil,  please remember to rinse the bath or shower well after use to avoid slipping, whether the product feels oily or not.

Visit us.rituals.com/en-us/laughingbuddha-products.html You will find Laughing Budddah Fortune Shower Oil, shower foam , body cream, scrub, bed and body mist, a hand lotion and gift sets that are perfect for holiday giving.

All That Glitters is Viva La Juicy Gold

s1641562-main-hero-300

It’s that time of year again! Time for Holiday shopping. The great news is, I already started my shoppong with great success. I have  found the ideal fragrance for my daughter Adrienne, Viva La Juicy Gold Couture. She is a true fan of Juicy Couture, having at least four Juicy fragrances in her perfume collection thus far.  Some of her favorites are Viva La Juicy, Juicy Couture and Couture La La Juicy to name a few.

It was the pretty black polka dot bow adorning an eye catching perfume bottle that clearly captured my attention. It’s definitely a design for a girl who loves glitz and glamour and of course GOLD! Viva La Juicy Gold Couture Eau De Parfum is Juicy’s  newest fragrance and it is a winner. The scent of this fabulous perfume is that of fruits and flowers. The fragrance captures scents of wild berries, a kiss of honeysuckle and a luxurious elixir of golden amber, melted caramel, and vanilla.”

If you are looking for stocking stuffers, Juicy’s dual Rollerball is a “must have” especially if you are a glamour girl on the go. The Dual Rollerball fits perfectly in most purdses and handbags and contains 2 of Juicy’s remarkable fragrances, Viva la Juicy and Viva la Juicy Gold Couture.  Adrienne found a rollerball in her stocking last year and she loved it! As a matter of fact, she still uses it.

Get a jumpstart and your holiday shopping and be sure to check out the Juicy Couture fragrances. Juicy Couture fragrances can be found at macys.com.

PUREOLOGY is My Hair’s New Best Friend

Unknown

 

It is amazing how an invigorating aroma led me to my current shampoo, Pureology Hydrate Collection. I love it!!! At a recent visit to my hair salon, my niece (also my stylist and a fabulous one at that) was shampooing my hair and I absolutely loved the smell of the shampoo she was using on my hair. The scent was very similar to a peppermint/spearmint smell. I asked my niece what the name of the shampoo was because I loved how it made my head feel and I loved the scent. She told me it was Pureology. She also told me If I purchase some, make sure it’s the Hydrate Collection because that is perfect for my hair type.

Pureology Hydrate Collection is perfect for color treated, dry and damaged hair. Pureology Hydrate has key ingredients of Sulfate-free, colour-preserving formula derived from coconut, corn and sugar; Natural Plant Extracts including Peppermint, Sage and Rosemary; Signature Aromatherapy Blend with Peppermint and Corn Mint Essential Oils. These special blends of ingredients carefully preserves your hair color. After using Pureology Hydrate  my hair is so bouncy and soft. I noticed a difference in my hair texture right away. Of course I always use conditioner and Hydrate Condition is the compliment to the Hydrate Shampoo. Hydrate Conditioner has the same wonderful smell and will help replenish moisture to dry hair especially hair that is chemically treated. The shae butter it contains definitely left my hair silky and soft and my curls are as bouncy as ever.

Pureology Hydrate Collection also offers Hydrate Light Condition which is designed for more sensitive scalps and those with fine hair. Hydrate Light Condition provides all the benefits that Hydrate Condition offer except it is a lighter formula.

After towel drying your hair, try a few drops of  Hydrate Shine Max and rub onto your hair or, for extra shine  put 2-3 drops into your conditioner, you will be pleased with the results. Hydrate Shine Max  is a leave-in formula, created with a “selected blend of the most technologically advanced silicones”. It helps eliminate frizz, adds softness to your hair, improves shine, increases elastiscity and has the same fabulous fragrance as the Shampoo and Conditioner.

Pureology Hydrate Collection is perfect for my hair type but what collection should you get for your hair type? At pureology.com/consultation you will find a guide that will help you find the perfect Pureology Product to enhance your hair type.
