FASHIONABLE KIDS GEAR FOR AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE

We try to live a very active lifestyle, and therefore I'm always on the lookout for great kids gear for my three year old. I've found this website to have pretty much everything that I'm looking for, with all of the name brands in stock. Check it out and hopefully you'll be as pleased with them as I've been.

LUMEDIA SKIN BRIGHTENER

Do you have sunspots, darker areas on your face or any other skin pigmentation you would like to get rid of? I did! It was not severe, but I definitely had an uneven skin tone, probably as a credit to all of the days I used to spend in the sun... So I tried this Skin Brightener from Lumedia. After only a couple of days of using it, I got my first compliment. A man at my daughters playgroup said my skin was gorgeously glowing and radiant. Wow! That kept me using the product for a while longer... I can't remember exactly how long I used this Skin Brightener, but it wasn't more than just a few weeks. I stopped once my skin tone was even, and looked more like the skin of a young child. I have not used it since then, which was probably about a year ago, and none of my spots have returned as of yet. Of course these days, I'm also a lot more careful about using a great sunscreen.
The only downside of this product was the scent. I am super-sensitive to scents and perfumes and really did not like the way it smelled. Lucky for me, it did it's job in just a few weeks time, so I didn't have to put up with the scent for too long.
I've found Spalook.com to have the best price for this product.

LOOKING FOR LONGER LASHES

My eye lashes have always been on the shorter, thinnner spectrum, and I have of course wished they were not. So when Revitlash came out with their product, I immediately wanted to give it a try. After a few days, the base line of my lashes looked a lot darker, as if more lashes was coming out from underneath. A few weeks into using the product, a significant improvement was noticable to anyone interested. My eyelashes was finally very long and thick, for the first time in my life.
The downside: I can't use it for several days in a row, as my eyes will begin to look red and irritated. So I use it pretty much every other night instead, and it still works wonders.
I bought it for $150, but I just found it at a discount price at The SkinStore, Natural Skin Care Products

I LOVE THE NEW IPHONE

I just absolutely LOVE the new IPHONE with increased storage. I no longer have to carry my phone, camera and IPOD in my purse, this all-in-one device, is covering all of my needs. And it is so easy to use, even my three year old has figured it out!

SUPER STYLISH "JETSETTER JR." BAG

I first saw and fell in love with this bag in the Lucky Magazine, Feb.08 issue. The "Jetsetter Jr." bag by Foley + Corinna, is sleek, chic, yet it holds all of my essentials. And with it's classic look and fine leather, I expect it to be one of my favorites for a long time to come.
I found mine at Fashion Chateau

POST WAXING BREAK OUT

I had my face waxed a few days ago, and woke up the next day to discover what looked like a massive acne attack. I applied a mud mask to try to extract what was in these bumps, just to find that there was really nothing to extract. It is NOT acne, or small pimples. After my husband and I thoroughly checked my skin, we discovered that it really looked a lot more like a rash, almost that of Poison Ivy, (which my face was VERY itchy as well), and decided to just nuture my skin, rather than trying to strip it! I started washing my face twice a day with a gentle cleanser, following an application of a great skin conditioning oil, and woke up the next day with some improvents. My bumps had almost completely vanished by day two of doing this routine. I wish I would have figured this out at the beginning instead of scrubbing my face for the first two days, and then applying harsh antibacterial/drying products on my precious skin.
At least next time I will know exactly what to do from the beginning...

I LOVE JOJOBA

I've been a fan of Jojoba oil for quite some time. Once I week I've been putting pure, organic jojoba oil in my hair and all over my body. It makes my skin so incredibly soft, and leaves my hair very shiny. So I decided to find other great products containing jojoba, that could be used on a daily basis.
So here's my new favorite Jojoba products. Go ahead and indulge!

~BLISS SUPER MINTY SOAP N' SCRUB
This is a one step cleansing gel and body buff that smoothes and softens the skin. It leaves skin tingling and super fresh. It is loaded with blue jojoba beads, and a great blend of pure peppermint oil and menthol


~JACK BLACK BEARD LUBE CONDITIONING SHAVE
This is basically a pre-shave oil, shave cream and skin conditioner, all in one. It has a wonderful blend of Jojoba, Eucalyptus, Peppermint and Macadamia nut oil, and it gives you a nice, smooth shave with a lot less razor burn.

You can find the above listed two items by clicking below

~AROMATHERAPY ASSOCIATES SUPPORT SUPERSENSITIVE BODY OIL
I've always preferred body oils to lotions, as it seems they really sink in and last twice as long. This is a wonderful oil containing chamomile and jojoba.

~DR. HAUSCHKA JOJOBA AND MARSH MALLOW CONDITIONER
This is a dense cream packed with organic botanical extracts and plant proteins, that make hair unbelievably shiny and smooth.

Fashion Pick Of The Day

Today I feel like wearing something that's classy and clean, but that also has a little of the Rock n' Roll chic feel to it.

So I’ll go with the Emma Top in Chocolate by Guy Baxter. It is a decadent sand washed silk charmeuse top. The mock collar and two silk covered buttons make this flirty silk shell irresistible. It is a gorgeus vintage design top with contemporary influence. I just Love this one!

I’ll also pick Jeans from 7 for all mankind. My favorites are currently the Roxy Jean in Toronto, and the Dusseldorf jean.

Also, the flirty, yet sophisticated heel that is perfect for everyday wear. The Vaden Short Pump in Brown.

Lara Small Bag in burnt Orange, by Aaneta Handbags, makes it all pop.

The Lucky Magazine

I was thinking that since I talked about the Lucky Shopping Manual, for those of you who don't know about the Lucky magazine, it is a really great magazine for us fashion and shopping lovers. I just renewed my one year subscription, and I am looking forward for my next twelve issues to arrive in the mail...

The Lucky Shopping Manual

This is such a great book! The Lucky Shopping Manual is all a woman will ever need.. The book is written with the same passion for helping women develop their shopping skills as the magazine. In this book they show you how to keep your eye, mind, and budget focused on the gaps in your wardrobe and how to close them. In this book they manage to nail down the essence of cool, sophisticated street dressing into easy-to-get formulas with room for experiments. Every high-end fashion designer claims that their only goal is to make women look beautiful and desirable – this book fulfill this mission in a smart, street-wise, and sophisticated way; and for every budget.
I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their closet, their style and sense of fashion.

Gel Creme de La Mer

The Moisturizing Gel Cream by La Mer

I am someone who doesn’t like to spend a lot of money on expensive skin crèmes, unless I find one that is really worth it. This ultralight edition of the original Creme de la Mer feels like it instantly refreshes and hydrates the skin, leaving it supremely soft. I live in Hawaii and its gel-like texture is ideal for warmer weather and times when a true cream just might be too rich.It is created with the original concentration of Creme de Mer's Miracle Broth, and the results are simply spectacular: Skin becomes softer, firmer, looks virtually creaseless. Lines and wrinkles begin to fade from view. Sensitivities are calmed and soothed. Even dry complexions are healed as skin recaptures its center.
