Biker Blue Swatch

Feeling the need to embrace an edgier color for Spring? Biker Blue–from MAC’s Jeanius collection–was actually quite a surprise. In the bottle, it appears to be a deep midnight blue with shimmer. Once applied, the color was actually a softer cornflower blue with shimmer. Much less edgy than I imagined, and positively enchanting!

Retail price is $14.

Beau Bain Bath Cupcake in Hawaiian Lei

beau bain bath cupcake hawaiian lei Did you have to skip your usual exotic vacation this Spring? That doesn’t mean you have to miss a tropical experience entirely! Beau Bain Bath Cupcakes are the ultimate bath indulgence… a fizzy bath bomb and frothy bubble bath all in one adorable package.

Want to know how to use it? While running your bathwater, crumble the “frosting” portion of the cupcake under the running water. While soaking, add the “cake” portion to your bath, for a fragrant and moisturizing treat! The Hawaiian Lei fragrance is floral (but not in an overpowering way). Close your eyes, and enjoy a vacation right from the comfort of your bathroom!

P.S. These bath cupcakes look delicious, but don’t dare take a bite!

Yardley London Pomegranate Rose Soap Review

yardley london pomegranate rose soap review

Personally, I never would have guessed that the scents of tangy Pomegranate and romantic Rose would work well together, but Yardley London surprised me with this new scent concoction!

Yardley London is more than just soap. The formula keeps skin soft. This particular bar features the antioxidant properties of Pomegranate mixed with oatmeal to exfoliate the skin while you cleanse. It’s the ultimate multi-tasker, and a bargain as well!

StriVectin-SD for Sensitive Skin!

StriVectin SD for Sensitive Skin Great news! StriVectin is now available in a new formula for Sensitive Skin! After all, we sensitive skinned consumers are aging too, right?

Here’s a fact that I recently learned: it’s estimated that 50% of women have some sort of skin sensitivity issue. That’s a lot of sensitive skin! I am among those unfortunate ladies.

The people at StriVectin removed all fragrances, oils and other irritants from this updated version. Then, they actually performed clinical trials of this new formula on sensitive skin, and it was determined that not only is the new formula compatible with sensitive skin, but helps to make skin less sensitive over time!

The key ingredients in the covetable anti-aging product at NIA-114 and Peptide Actives. The NIA-114 ingredient is a patented Niacin concoction that actually helps the skin cells to rebuild. Peptide Actives help promote collagen production, reducing the appearance of fine lines.

Retail price for a 2.0 oz tube is $79.

Online retailers of the product include Macys.com, Nordstrom.com, Sephora.com and Beauty.com.
