Hey Gorgeous! Do you have your summer skin care routine set up? If not, look at this:
http://www.systeme41.com/Home.htm
Before you read below about the details of the product, may I share my experience? I love the cleanser because it's gentle yet removes my makeup and my skin feels clean but not dry?

There is a unique scent, most likely from the botanical ingredients to the day and night creme. Yummy. Finally-I love the scrub, but when I use it as a mask it makes me itch? Not sure why-but that's my experience. The eye creme is light and readily absorbs into the skin. It's been such a treat to test this product and I love that it is made in the United States. Go Dr. Zand and team! Now, enjoy the details below or better yet, just click on over to the website and get some for yourself!
Système 41 products are:

Paraben-free

I Finally Found a Fix for My Puffy Eyes

Hello gorgeous! If you want a romantic style for your upcoming Valentines day-whether you celebrate you or your union, try this simple, easy, salon at home style from the experts at Warren-Tricomi!
###
For perfect Valentine’s Day hair Edward Tricomi of Warren-Tricomi Salons recommends sexy, wavy hair as this reminds men of women’s curves.


To create this look, spray a heat protectant in your hair before any heat styling, not only to protect your hair but to make sure your style stays put. Comb through and wait for your hair to dry. Then take a large, 1inch curling iron and wrap 1in inch sections of hair around the barrel making sure to twist the hair as you are wrapping it around the barrel and hold for 10 seconds. Afterwards, let the hair fall loose and spray with a flexible hold hairspray. Continue to do this until your whole head is finished. Definitely splurge on a good curling iron so you can create the look properly at home. A curling iron can do so many things and depending on the way you twist the hair around the barrel, you can create many looks.

Hello my fellow Hanukkah and Christmas celebraters! Oh how I love to celebrate Christmas and
make memories and just enjoy the season.

I want to share with you this new body creme that is a rich, thick, luxurious creme that is a super hydrator and skin restorative for the body.

I love that this creme is for the body because so many people focus on the face when it comes to anti-aging care but forget about the neck, decollete, hands and of course, body!
I encourage you to visit the main website because there is so much to what they as a company are researching in skin care and advancing the technology of maintaining great looking healthy skin!

This body creme is intended for the treatment phase to help prepare the body skin to receive a wrap or massage or spa session.

I think the Regenerante Corps from Biologique Recherche would make an awesome Christmas stocking stuffer-get some! Find out more at http://www.biologique-recherche.com/
