'Tis the season for travel, and whether your journey will bring you near or far, Bath & Body Works has the perfect pint-sized companions to fit into your carry-on!
I recently had the opportunity to try some travel-sized products from the Aromatherapy Blends offered by Bath & Body Works. I can't think of a better product to pack on a business trip than the lavender and chamomile-laced body wash and body lotion. These essential oils instill feelings of relaxation and tranquility. Perfect for helping you get a good night's sleep in a bed that's not your own! Three time zones away, and a meeting first thing in the morning? The citrusy zing of Orange and Ginger invigorate a tired spirit like no other combination.
Traveling to see a friend? These teensy bottles make a terrific hostess gift! Just pack a gift-bag, some tissue paper, and a few travel-sized Aromatheraphy bottles. Your hostess will be thrilled with her gift, and you can still travel light.
Retail price is $5.

In the world of pets, there are dog-people and cat-people. In the world of makeup, there are palette-people and non-palette-people. I fall firmly in the palette-loving camp. The pros are far more talented than I, coordinating shades perfectly and ensuring makeup is on-trend. It also ensures you don't fall into a makeup rut.
Every now and then I sample products that are positively not for my complexion, but perfect for darker-skinned women. These two products, from MAC Style Warrior, fall into that category.
Once upon a time, I thought SPF 6 was a way-too-powerful sunblock. Each Summer, I would plan my strategy to achieve the perfect tan. Generally, my method was to tan gradually (to turn the skin a deep golden brown). Then, when you achieved that tan, intentionally (gasp!) get a bit of a burn on top, to look eternally rosy.
Women are perpetually on the hunt for the perfect nude gloss… barely there with just a hint of color. If you are currently on a quest for a Summertime neutral gloss, MAC lipglass in Buzz fits the bill! The Naked Honey collection by MAC includes three different neutral shades of lipglass so every complexion will find a perfect fit!
