Regenerate your skin with Radical Skincare

give-away-8

RADICAL SKINCARE offers AGE-DEFYING products and the EXFOLIATING PADS are on my list of skincare “must-haves”. Last year I wrote about Radical Skincare Neck Firming Gel http://donnaraheb.itsaglamthing.com/?p=2877 and now I can’t wait to try the Exfoliating Pads which are getting great reviews. These deep-cleansing pads harness the potency of Glycolic Acid, Chamomile, Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids in combination with fruit acids to exfoliate, smooth and soothe skin while improving firmness and overall texture.

Radical Skincare Exfoliating Pads are formulated at maximum levels as these powerful ingredients penetrate skin to reveal a bright, fresh, youthful complexion. The innovative formula provides immediate exfoliation and preps skin to better absorb the antioxidant benefits and restoratives of other products in the Radical Skincare line.

After just two weeks of use, after nightly cleansing, Radical Skincare Exfoliating Pads will reduce coarse crows feet by 50% and significantly improve skin firmness, texture and elasticity.

Thank you BFF for my Modella Purse

Modella Purse Kit

I just received a Modella Purse Kit as a gift from a friend and I just love it!!! Modella Purse Kit is a 5 x7 purse case that can store and protect anything and everything!  It can easily double as a hand held mini purse.  A single compartment stores make-up and personal items neatly and cleanly.  The exposed colored zipper adds a dash of fashion and security.  Modella Purse Kits are affordable and come in fashionable, pretty patterns.  Don’t let this small size purse fool you.  Modella Purse Kits are perfect for keeping in your purse to organized them.  I use my Modella Purse Kit to take to the beach to organize my items in my beach bag.  It holds my cell phone, keys, money, sunglasses, lip balm, and sunscreen.  Now, I never have to search through a big beach bag if I need any of these items. They are all in one place safe!  Also, I never have to worry about the pesky sand or losing my belongings.  I love it so much that I am purchasing another one for my gym bag for school.

Thank you BFF for my Modella Purse Kit!

You can find Modella Cosmetic Bags and Purses in assorted patterns in most major drug stores nationwide.

Recover – E Cucumber Eye Pads equals Refreshed and Replenished Eyes

images-3

My friends came over and wanted to have an inexpensive spa party at my house. I’m always on the hunt to find great, inexpensive, lightweight products and really found a tiny treasure with Earth Theraputics Eye Pads. We thought they were absolutely adorable and they smelled great, but weren’t sure how they were going to work.  Luckily, I didn’t have to chop up cucumbers or break tea bags apart for the treatment. The six women let the eye pads refrigerate for twenty minutes and then we put them on our eyes. Honestly, it was the favorite product of the evening. My friends couldn’t believe how the pads relieved puffiness and dark circles around their eyes. I actually fell asleep as I found the smell delightful and soothing. The pads are infused with real cucumber extract, vitamin E and a beneficial blend of nutrients. We all went shopping the next day and purchased pads to keep our eyes refreshed for the next six months!!!  

We found Recover-E Cucumber Eye Pads and Rejuvenal-C Orange Eye Pads (which I can’t wait to try)  at Kohl’s Department Store but they can also be found at ulta.com and earththerapeutics.com/

Support JOICO’s “STYLE FOR A CURE” BREAST CANCER AWARENESS 2013

image002-1Joico Continues Annual Push to Increase Awareness and Raise Funds. Breast cancer never takes a holiday and Joico’s annual efforts to raise funds for research and increase awareness doesn’t either. Their efforts to support the fight to end cancer transforms this year to its “Style for A Cure” campaign in a year that has also seen Joico transformed in image and purpose. The Style for A Cure campaign includes special pink product promotions – top stylers JoiMist Firm hairspray and JoiWhip foam offered in a sleek, metallic pink sheen that graduates from top to bottom. These top stylers will be available on special in a “2 for $22” duo deal coming this September/October. 

The campaign also continues to offer marketing support for salons and professional stylists who wish to hold their own breast cancer-related events. Joico’s do-it yourself BCA website www.joico.com/breast-cancer-awareness continues to be a source for salons and stylists to create and promote their very own local efforts to help the cause. As Joico embarked on a new and transformative vision at the start of 2013, it launched itself into a whole new stratosphere when it revealed its new look that ranged across vibrant new product packaging, to fresh and bold new imagery speaking more to a strong lifestyle-focused brand, while also re-invigorated its science roots through DNA-based technology to change the industry. Joico’s commitment continues to go strong with the company once again supporting their long-standing partner City of Hope for their yearly fundraiser culminating in Las Vegas this July in its Annual Spirit of Life Gala.  With Sara Jones, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Joico/ISO/Minardi having been the 2011 City of Hope Spirit of Life Award Recipient, and long-time supporter and board-member, this relationship continues to flourish.  Also continuing on from 2012 will be Joico support for the cause via Beauty Systems Group, and special edition products to specifically benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure (Joico duos JoiMist Firm and JoiWhip, also in specially-designed pink packaging).  Additionally, the Joico BCA page at www.joico.com/breast-cancer-awareness is becoming increasingly robust as it celebrates the salons and stylists who continue to participate in Breast Cancer Awareness and fundraising events. The online destination also offers a roster of turnkey, downloadable breast cancer programs—including cut-a-thons, silent auctions, “Touch of Pink” ribbon events and service and product promotional programs—that salons can customize to their individual businesses and communities.  Each program features posters, planners, letters, press alerts and other printables.

Lavanila Forever Fragrance Oil is the perfect gift for any party!

Lavanila Fragrance Oil

The definition of “regift” in the Merriam Webster dictionary …… “to give someone a gift that was previously received from someone else.”  A friend of mine had a “Regifting Party”.  Everyone who attends this party must bring a item that they once received as a gift. The item has to be new and unopened.  After the delicious appetizers and exquisite drinks, it was time to exchange the merchandise. In between all the oohing and aaahing, I opened my regifted item……. Lavanila Forever Fragrance Oil!  First of all, I love the brand Lavanila, I am very familiar with its reputation! Lavanila is an all natural company that uses only the finest ingredients in all their products. The roll-on sweet almond oil is a luscious blend of sparkling grapefruit, fresh cedarwood and warm Madagascar vanilla bean scent.  It is a clean, uplifting citrus fragrance and is made without Parabens, Petrochemicals, Phthalates, Silicones, Propylene Glycol, Mineral Oils, Synthetic Dyes, Sulfates, Chemical Sunscreens, or Aluminum.  It is All Natural! 

The roll-on oil sensuality melts into the skin to hydrate and last twice as long as traditional fragrances. Lavanila does not test on animals and is made in the USA!  The Lavanila Forever Fragrance Oil is also available in Vanilla Coconut and Pure Vanilla and, retails for $25.00 for .27 fl oz.at  Lavanila.com.  Well this was one time I did not feel cheated or angry to receive a regifted gift.  It was a genuine hit!  The funny part of this story…. as the party continued into the night, I ended up chatting with the women who presented me with her regifted item.  She was complimenting me on my scent throughout the conservation.  Well, I really didn’t have the heart to tell her…. it was her regifted gift “Lavanila Forever Fragrance Oil.  Her loss – my gain!

Midnight Snack (black) still casts its spell this Fall, shades of greens are favorites, neutrals work all year and full on metallics are a Fall hit.
