Beauty product du jour...

Stepping out of the design box again today, I want to share a beauty product that is fantastic I have tried recently. I am not getting paid to endorse this product, these are products I am using or have tried that I think you may want to try as well.

I was in my local CVS, and prices being what they are for skin care - i.e., rather high, I am always on the lookout for reasonable products that are high quality but don't cost the earth. I used to sell several lines of skincare, so I am familiar with skincare and love learning about new lines. I came across Lumene, a Scandinavian company that offers little trial products for $3.99 .  A 'time freeze' night cream that looked like something my skin could use at the right price.  I love it! If you are looking for a cream that will firm, tone and make your skin look brighter, this is it.  It is light, not greasy, goes on easily and is fine for sensitive skin. I highly recommend it. I recently bought the day firming cream with SPF, and have listed a couple of other products I want to try.  Would you try Lumene? Is it what you need?

This is a great cream for daily use...

I want to try this soon -


Vitamin C can be drying, so use with caution if you have
sensitive skin -


This is the first product I tried and I love it -

I would love to try these for my night routine -
You will notice that the prices are very reasonable as well -

Beauty product du jour...

I am stepping out of the design zone to bring you this message about a fantastic product I tried this week and can't believe how great it is! I wanted to share it with you and I am not getting paid to promote it.

I was shopping in my local Wal-Mart and I'm always looking for great shampoos for color-treated hair, when I found a 'Yes to Cucumbers' bottle on sale for $2.50 (regularly $10.00). It smells great  and thought I'd give it a try as its 'all natural' without the usual harsh ingredients found in shampoos (sulfate, parabens and petroleum). Well, let me tell you, my hair has NEVER looked better! I even skipped a styling product (I forgot) and my hair was LITERALLY shiny, bouncy and the color looked great. I have fine, straight hair but I have a lot of it, its not really thin. I also skipped washing the next day and my hair has never looked better, not greasy or weighed down like it usually does. Seriously, try this product and let me know what you think - I am amazed.  The 'Yes to Carrots' brand has skincare, body care, lip care, baby care and SPF care so do check it out online, I don't think you will be disappointed!


This product ROCKS!!


I didn't even buy the conditioner and my hair still looked
great...


I may try this product next...and its an award winner -


Who doesn't want great looking skin as you age??


Check out this range of SPF products for the whole bod - ;-))
Definitely on my 'Gotta Have These' list!!


Have a great weekend and try some new products to get out of a rut, you'll be
glad you did!!

Things I can't live without...

My new blogging friend over at http://www.coteprovence.blogspot.com/ asked what things I can't live without so I thought it would be fun to change it up a bit today: 


Bare Escentuals is the BEST PRODUCT for the face - if you are looking for a foundation that doesn't look like you are wearing a foundation - totally natural and makes the skin glow!! I highly recommend it!!

This is a great product for eye puffiness as well as fine lines...LOVE THIS...


This is available in the US now after I first bought it in England...this product doesn't give you 'helmet head' -
 Just discovered this beautiful bronzer for a great price -

 I love this scent from the Body Shop - I've been wearing it for YEARS and its affordable!
 I'm obsessed with SPF - I don't leave home without it and this is great protection and goes on light...:))
 This classic changed my skin...I recently read Kylie Minogue swears by it and the sales went through the roof!! Good stuff...
 I have been wearing my trusty Timex for years too - another classic that is stylish and keeps me on time!! Plus I can see it in the dark when I need to!


 This is just one mag obsession but I can't live without several fashion and design mags...

I admit it...I can't tear myself away from blogging and can't live without my blog on a daily basis...

 My beloved little kitty cat Scooter is a daily highlight - he is diabetic so I give him 2 shots a day and he is 15 now...love him so much...xx

I really love my car - its a Bug and its speedy, economical, looks great and I have a little vase with 2 flowers in it - its always fun to see kids 'punch' each other as I drive by (playing the 'punch buggy' game) -

That's it for me - I hope you enjoyed looking through this list - what favorites do you have that you can't live without?? Do share!!
