Too Much Saturday Fun? Arbonne Rescue & Renew Detox Bath Soak to the Rescue!

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy Saturday! Oh - this year! I've said it before and I will say it again - every day goes by like a minute!  I'm in the middle of Passover/Easter prep, here at the house.
\

It's heartbreaking to not be traveling to Texas this year.  Choices had to be made, and this is one thing we gave up so we could have some other opportunities this summer. More on that later.

Now, if you too, over did it a bit today and have some sore spots, perhaps some aches and pains?  Then Arbonne Rescue & Renew to the rescue!



This detox bath soak can be used on one achy elbow in a soaking tub, or on feet in an at home spa pedi tub, or if the whole body aches, put yourself in the bathtub with a generous scoop of these grapefruit, tangerine, lavender, juniper berry, ginger, orange and rosemary oil infused salts.

Take good care of you! You are worth it!

CARA Moisturizer Lotion from Mehron - First Impression Friday

TGIF!
Hi ya Gorgeous!

Who else is ready for the weekend? The very windy, cold, rainy weekend? No matter around here - we are so thankful for the weekend when we do not have to make the very long, very heinous commute.

Now, today is "First Impression Friday"  and I have just received a sample of Mehron's CARA Moisturizer Lotion.



I have been using Mehron makeup for decades - literally - drawing, painting, schmearing, their products on clients for the past 20 years.

I have never tried the skincare until now. First impression?  I'm not wowed. It has a very strong scent in my opinion. It reminds me a lot of LORAC's moisturizer in a glass bottle. I do like the packaging - it comes in it's own velveteen textured carrying bag, but that isn't really necessary, is it?

It is light weight on the skin, absorbs well, my liquid makeup wore well over it and after a few hours, I did not notice that my skin was dry or I needed an atomizer spritz of hydration.




If I had to pick yes or no to win a million dollars - I would say no, I don't like this enough to buy it.
But!

If you like scented light weight lotions, this could be for you.  Use this link to get your own glass bottle of CARA by Mehron for $24.95


CARA Moisturizer is a nourishing, vitamin-packed lotion for all skin types. It immediately quenches skin with vitamins and antioxidants. Formulated with vitamin E, shea butter, aloe vera, and açaí berry extract to help restore the skin’s natural vitality.  Açaí is a powerful antioxidant-rich fruit that provides incredible hydration. CARA™ Moisturizer helps to leave skin feeling truly soft while reducing the surface signs of aging.
Available in a 1 fl oz (30 ml) glass bottle with pump. Includes a convenient black velvet travel pouch

Sandal Season is Here! Ethique Pumice & Peppermint Foot Polish to the Rescue!

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Oh - the weather! The official date of spring has passed on the calendar yet our current weather situation is anything but warm sunny sunshine filled days!


It's all severe rain and snow, wind and in general, a rather blustery day!

Though I encourage you to look ahead to better days that are coming!  In fact, sandal season is upon us!  It's time to take the toes out of the wool socks and boots and get them ready for show in fancy flip flops and open toe sandals!

Meaning, it's time for pedicures and taking extra care of feet, toes and heels.  My heels get a little rough in the winter but more so in the summer from always being in a sandal.



I just received a sample of the Ethique Beauty Pumice & Peppermint Foot Polish bar and it is absolutely lovely!

The packaging and thoughtful wrapping is recycled that is compostable. Ethique is a Certified B Corporation, makes cruelty free and climate friendly products - in short, they just make good stuff!


So you simply rub this deeply scented bar with chunks of shea butter in it and wee bits of pumice. The aroma is from the essential peppermint oil infused into the bar. It's a very light exfoliation, it's not harsh at all.

The box says - not to eat - but to be careful in the tub/shower because the super rich emollient shea butter could leave a film on the shower surface and become slippery.

The product is safe for the whole family and would make a lovely gift for the upcoming Passover and Easter seasons- or get early for Mother's Day and graduation gifts!

Find yours and more from Ethique on their website. They make a wide range of body bars, including, a bar shampoo - which, is perfect for travel, like, to Coachella!

Red flushed skin? Try Dear by Renee Youth Soothing Creme

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy Monday!


How's your March Madness going? Are you and the family on spring break or following the tournaments or are you preparing for a busy Passover and Easter season?  I swear - everything seems to happen at once!



So I have a wee bit more time to beauty blog this month now that my film, 8 Days in Havasu has officially landed on Amazon! I have a wee break til production begins on Arise Annalynn next month meaning ...time to experiment with some new products!

Meet  Dear by Renee Youth Soothing Creme! 




It can be used on skin that has psoriasis and on skin that gets red and blotchy.  I have redness from years of sun scars from being in the desert sun and not re-applying my sun screen. See, that's the secret, you have to reapply to get the true benefit and adding a hat doesn't hurt either!

Here are some details about the Dear by Renee Youth Soothing Creme - I must say, I really like the creme. It's called a creme though to me it has a gel like texture and is hydrating, soothing, feels good, wears good alone and under makeup and over all - I like it!

Details below and get yours on the website  Dear by Renee.  On the website it is $74.95 for 1.7 ounces.

Best for All Skin Types in Anti-Aging, Soothing, Hydrating, also Great for Sensitive, Dehydrated, Allergy-prone Skin.
Infusion of Hollywood celebrity favoured Arnica Extract, Youth Soothing Crème contains several active components that hydrates and soothes dehydrated, itchy, or red skin. It is also a wonderful moisturizer for seasonal transitions. 
Benefits:
  • Look Young & Radiant: The special properties of Blackcurrant Seed oil and Balloon Vine extract in combination with Sunflower Oil Concentrate effectively reduce inflammatory processes and replenish the damaged skin barrier. Tego Stemlastin stimulates epidermal stem cells and dermal fibroblasts. This premium crème stops accelerated skin aging (inflamm-ageing).
  • Fabulous Soothing & Anti-inflammatory: Hollywood celebrity favoured Arnica Extract Offers anti-inflammatory and stimulating activity, normalizes superficial microcirculation, and activates the reabsorption of cutaneous blood effusion (bruises). It enhances the appearance of dry or damaged skin by reducing flaking and restoring suppleness. 
  • Enhance Skin Health: Delisens Solution, an innovative hexapeptide, relieves itching while helping sensitive skin to recover its physiological tolerance threshold. Cistus Incanus Extract protects DNA, provides anti-inflammatory effects, delivers daylight defense, and protects from environmental stress.
  • Bring Hydration Back to Skin:  Defensil®-Plus markedly relieves dry, itchy, allergy-prone skin. A synergistic complex of yeast and several botanical extracts rich in saponosides and flavonoids, strengthens capillaries, reinforces their resistance and reactivates microcirculation, which restores proper moisture balance and improves skin elasticity
