Celebrate this Mother’s day with Lancome’s Color Fever Lip Gloss

I’m celebrating my Mom this Mother’s day with Lancome’s Color Fever Lip Gloss

My mom  is very  special to me.  Each year for Mother’s Day we usualy get her perfume or other types of gifts like lotions or books.  If my dad gets involved, well,  let’s just say my mom has lots of cleaning equipment.

So this year, I am going to surprise her with something I know she will love,  Lancome’s Color Fever Lip Gloss. My mom has many kinds of lipsticks and lip glosses.  She has them  in her purse, pocket and car at all times.  It’s the one thing she can not live without.  So I thought this would be a perfect  gift, especially since she likes mine so much.

The color I chose for my mom is Color fever gloss Green Petal  #386. This lip gloss might  look green, but when applied, it has a pearl like, clear sparkly sheen, with a tint of mint green that picks up any color top or sweater she will be wearing.  My mom wears lots of pink shade lipsticks and coordinates her clothes to match.  But now she can wear any color and have a lip gloss that will match.

Another nice feature of this lip gloss is that it’s not sticky and has a subtle herbal flavor, just the right pick for Spring. Color Fever Lip Glosses also have a unique applicator designed to contour your lips perfectly.

Lancome color fever lip gloss comes in many shades.  My favorites are  #386 Green Petal, #387 Tangerine Petal,  and #388 Rose Petal.

You can find your favorite shade of lip gloss at http://www.lancome-usa.com/makeup-gloss/makeup-gloss or stop by any fine departmenent store that carries Lancome Make-up products.

Lancome has a great Facebook page too: https://www.facebook.com/lancome

Oh, and don’t tell my Mom, it’s a surprise.  Happy Mother’s Day.

Suds Up This Mother’s Day!

Suds Up This Mother’s Day with Gifts from Bath and Body Works

When considering what you should get for the special woman in your life this Mother’s Day, consider what she did for you first….

Was she an inspiring teacher, a gentle caregiver, a loyal companion, a mentor or a fantastic cook?  Did she wipe your tears away, kiss your boo-boos, give you the best advice or just sit there and listen?  Mother’s Day is a great reason to give a gift of luxury and playfulness! PINK CHIFFON which is a new scent from Bath & Body Works, refreshs and moisturizes your skin with aloe vera after every shower.  Pouring a button sized drop on a damp wash cloth or mesh sponge creates ultra lathering bubbles which is then smoothed over skin for the ultimate shower experience.  A long lasting fragrance of Mandarin, Red Pear, Peach Nectar and Wild Berries brings a subtle depth and sumptuous femininity to the shower.   Give the graceful beauty and feeling of richness to your special someone – Give them PINK CHIFFON SHOWER GEL!!

Or, if the lovely lady prefers Asian Pear, Kyoto Rose, Mimosa Petals, Himalayan Cedarwood fragrance then an Oldy but Goody will replenish their daily shower.   Award-winning JAPANESE CHERRY BLOSSOM also from Bath & Body Works gently cleanses and softens your skin with a nourishing lather of moisturizing aloe vera and oils.  This pampering treatment leaves your skin feeling soft as silk, light, and fresh. Inspired by the exotic gardens of Japan, JAPANESE CHERRY BLOSSOM SHOWER GEL introduces a clean, lingering scent which will stimulate your confidence level and make you feel supercharged.

These are many reasons to give the woman you adore and love a signature scent shower gel from Bath & Body Works — Show your thankfulness and Suds her up!!!!

Mally Beauty Celebrates its 7th Year! And we are celebrating with a fabulous review on Mally Perfume.

In celebration of Mally Beauty’s 7th Anniversary, my dear friend Laurie Carcieri was delighted to review Mally’s newest perfume.  Laurie is very particular when choosing fragrances and after a day with Mally, she was impressed.

“When my very good friend, Donna Raheb, gave me the newest Mally perfume to try, I hesitated.  I rarely get hooked on a new fragrance the first time around but Mally was the exception.  One spritz was all it took!  I fell in love with it from the moment I first smelled the tropical, floral, citrus scent.  I received many compliments from my co-workers and complete strangers.  It has a natural drawing affect toward people which I noticed many people stepping closer to me just to enjoy the scent.  The Mally aroma is versatile for anytime of the day and night.  It has a delightful twist which I learned is the Sampaguita flower, the national flower of the Philippines, which is similar to the crisp, clean scent of jasmine but with a more modern response.  I also love the playful bottle with the two dangling heart charms which I am excited to display on my make-up vanity.  You cannot go wrong with this sexy, juicy fragrance by Mally.  Thank you Donna for introducing me to Mally and igniting a spark of tropical pleasure into my life!!!  — that is what friends are for.”………….Laurie (pictured) is a guest Blogger for “It’s A Glam Thing”.  Thanks Laurie!

Make-up Designory’s Squeezable Tube Mascara

MUD Make-up Designory has a new line of squeezable mascara that you must try.  Say goodbye to  pumping the mascara wand, which causes drying out…Say hello to the easy to use squeezable tube,  which ensures you get every bit of mascara, right to the last drop.   Next, brush on your lashes for an ultra vibrant look.

MUD squeezable tubes are offered in black volumizing and black creme  mascara.   Both are fabulous and MUD states that each mascara is rich in pigment for even coverage and lush with fiber to maximize and lengthen for super volumizing results”. 

Whenever I have an eye make-up question, my 16 year old daughter Adrienne is the “go to girl”.  She suggested volumizing mascara for my type of eyelashes and she chose black creme mascara for herself.

Her thoughts on the black creme mascara… “ MUD mascara evenly coated my eyelashes as well as holds the curl. It did not flake off throughout the day, which is a big plus for me.  The           squeezable tube is so easy to use and fits conveniently in my makeup case”.

My thoughts on the volumizing mascara was that it created the look of fuller and longer eyelashes.  MUD mascara is also suitable for those with sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers because I too have both. I didn’t experience any irritation which was an added bonus.

Visit http://www.mudshop.com/ and choose from an array of Mudd products to achieve that special glamorous look, whether daytime or nightime.

Their site is unique in that you will find helpful illustrations on how to apply specific products whether it be for lips, eyes or cheeks.  The illustration below is an example of what you will find on the website and describes  how to apply the  MUD mascara to your eyelashes.  I found this to be a great idea.  Enjoy!
