Soap & Glory Original Pink Eau de Parfum just Sparkles

Original Pink Eau de Parfume is a delightfully fragrant perfume having Soap & Glory’s signature rose and bergamot scent.  I found Original Pink most appealing, mainly because liked the  sparkling fragrance of orange, lemon, peach and strawberries.   Soap & Glory Original Pink also picked up some scents of gardenia, rose and jasmine all of which created  a lovely subtle aroma.  Original Pink itsn’t  too fruity, and I would wear it day and night.  After misting Original Pink, I found the fragrance to last quite some time which is always a test whether or not I will continue to wear it, and this particular fragrance, I definitely will.

You can purchase Soap & Glory Original Pink Eau de Parfum at http://www.soapandglory.com/us/ and if you like Original Pink Eau de Parfum, you will love Soap & Glory’s other fragrances as well as their Bath and Body and Skin Care Line.  They have a fun website so make sure you check it out.

Anti-aging secrets you want to know…

Here are five anti-aging secrets to help you to decrease lines wrinkles and crow’s feet this summer and from now on:

IPL Laser

If your skin is in bad condition, learn more about IPL laser and be on your way to a brighter complexion. This non-surgical procedure can successfully treat acne, rosacea, sun-damage, fine lines and wrinkles, broken capillaries, age spots, blemishes, birthmarks and port wine stains and can reduce the signs of ageing.

Exfoliation

Dull, dry skin can make you look older than you are, so why not exfoliate on a regular basis? Simply rub a quality exfoliating cream over your body and wash off with lukewarm water. The small abrasives will unblock your pores and should increase your circulation – leaving you with a beautiful glow. If your complexion’s in need of a little extra TLC, you could also book a chemical peel as this polishes the top layer of skin.

Moisturize

There are many ways to look glamorous throughout 2012, but the right moisturizer can make a real difference. Find out what skin type you have from a dermatologist and ask them to recommend a decent age-busting product. There are many creams on the market, but if you know what you need it’ll make shopping easier.

Wear the right foundation

A decent foundation can hide a number of sins, so it’s essential to buy quality beauty products. Test each cream on the back of your hand to see if it matches your skin tone – before making a purchase. If you’ve got frown lines or creases, opt of a cream blusher rather than a powder as it’s less likely to settle in the ridges of your face.

Add radiance

To achieve a fresh, ‘I haven’t done a day’s work in my life’ glow, opt for a peachy blusher. Apply sparingly to your cheekbones in a natural light and use a quality makeup brush to blend the product correctly. Less is definitely more here, so don’t plaster it all over your face. If you’re on the go and have forgotten your makeup bag, rub your cheeks to stimulate blood flow and hey presto – you should look fabulous in no time.

Look great for your age and feel wonderful this summer – you know you are worth it!

Lilliana shares tips with me & our It’s a Glam Thing fans…


(Lilliana Vazquez, The Cheap Chica)

To be a fashionista on a budget is not easy! Is it even possible to “look chic for cheap”? It isn’t easy, but when you are blessed to have friends with insider knowledge to the fashion world it makes it much easier! Even people who don’t have friends with that knowledge are able to gain insight from style expert and the founder and editor-in-chief of an online fashion resource, The CheapChica’s Guide to Style Lilliana Vazquez.

A fashionista herself, working at W Magazine provided Lilliana with an insider’s knowledge of the fashion world. Inspired by the designers she met and worked with, she launched Applestar, a youthful and hip line of accessories, belts, and handbags. Within a year the collection was picked up by high-end boutiques such as Neiman Marcus Cusp and Nordstroms, establishing her as an up-and-coming designer and launching her as a fashion industry.

In addition to her fashion line, her ability to provide informative, accessible and relatable fashion commentary, has branded her a style expert with more than 250 appearances on NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, Bravo and The Style Network. Lilliana serves as a regular contributor to the Emmy nominated Nate Berkus Show and TBS’ Movie and a Makeover where she shares her frugally fashionable point of view with audiences nationally. She is currently a lifestyle correspondent for New York LIVE on NBC New York, where she covers everything fashion and is a fixture on the red carpet.

The CheapChica’s Guide to Style reaches a national audience of more than 250,000 women each month and is considered the authority for “looking chic for cheap”. It was a pleasure to meet with Lilliana and have her share her summer favorites with It’s a Glam Thing.

Quick Getaways

As exciting as going to movie premiers, attending celebrity gifting suites and posing for the paparazzi can be, every now and then, it’s nice to get away from all of the craziness of Hollywood.

But very few Angelenos and even fewer LA visitors would ever guess that there are many tranquil spots to enjoy right in this area.  Greystone Mansion, a Gothic-English estate in the heart of Beverly Hills, is one of my favorite places to escape and relax.

  

Surrounded by 18.5 acres of parkland, the historical landmark was built in 1928 by a wealthy oil baron but is now used for cultural and educational activities, photo and commercial shoots, weddings, and public events.   It has also been featured in many well-known movies including Indecent Proposal, Spiderman and The Bodyguard, to name a few.

The beautiful fountains and lush gardens remind me a lot of some I’ve seen in Europe….which I love!  And spending a half hour or so walking around the estate (which is free!) is a quick way to get away from it all without taking a trip oversees.

Recently, I was introduced to Garden Alchemy, the newest collection from Thymes and have find that it’s another, even easier way to “get away”.  Thymes paints images of an “ethereal enchanted garden” and promises that the collection’s three original fragrances, Rosemary Sage, Wild Angelica, Lemon Geranium, will “whisk you away to a dreamy, blossoming locale”…and they deliver.

Each unique scent is available in the following forms:  bubbling bath elixir, bath salt envelope, shower gel, body soufflé, mist for body and bed, mini cologne and poured candle.

I especially love the Rosemary Sage Mist for Body and Bed!  Combined with soothing willow bark and calendula extract to heal and moisturize, the relaxing scent is wonderful to use after a shower or bath and using it on my sheets guarantees me a good night’s sleep.

And the packaging is absolutely gorgeous! They look really pretty sitting on your vanity.  If you’re looking for a really nice gift that’s also reasonably priced, you’ll want to check these out.  But be sure to buy extras, you’ll definitely want to keep some for yourself.

Visit www.Thymes.com for more information.
