Moisturizer On Overdrive

Originshaveaniceday2If you want to face the day in a safe way, ‘Have a Nice Day’ Super-Charged Moisture Lotion-SPF 15 by ORIGINS is a must to protect your face from the harmful rays. It may be fall but sunscreen should still be apart of your daily routine. Great for my combination skin, I apply this every morning as it’s a potent blend of UV protectors which includes firming Birch Extract, nourishing Soybean Oil, and Vitamin E that help to stop the dangers of environmental damage and prevent premature aging. And one whiff of the awesome aroma of grapefruit is an instant pick me up. Smells sensational plus prevents sun damage. $32.50/1.7oz @ origins.com ~Randi

Little Black Book

Pantinause_6How many times have you been at work and needed to go out somewhere right after? I usually only carry daytime touch-up makeup with me but this one will be added to the bunch. PANTINA’s Trio Eye Palette ($5 @ pantina.com) is from their upcoming Classically Chic Winter 2007 collection. Inside the magnetically closed case are two shadows and a liner with a tiny double-sided brush for quick enhancements on the go.

Moisture To The Max from Carol's Daughter

CarolsunscentedCarolsoceanWe have talked a lot about CAROL’S DAUGHTER products on this site. Why? Quality. For those who choose not to have a scent in their lotion, you will adore the new Unscented Shea Body Lotion ($20/8oz), which is full of Shea butter (15%), Cranberry Oil and Olive Oil. Cranberry Oil has the perfect balance of the good omega oils: 3, 6 and 9, not found in any other oil. If you are a fan of their Ocean scent, the Ocean Body Cleansing Gel ($13.50/8oz) is so gentle with aloe vera to create a non-drying lather. To scent or not to scent … it’s your choice. Both @ sephora.com ~Lisa

The Russians Are Coming!

OPI just came out with new shades for their Fall/Winter 2007 collection of Nail Lacquers ($4.29 @ head2toebeauty.com). The Russian Collection is nine shades of Da! Each has elegance, luxury and an instinct for the finer things in life written all over them. I’m leaning towards the darker ones with these picks of the litter:

BandB To The Rescue

Bumble2_3BUMBLE AND BUMBLE feels your pain -- your hair pain. New to the line is their Damage Therapy Collection of products. I don’t know one woman who can stand up and say their hair is not damaged in some way. This 4some is for those who chemically treat their strands. It uses Amino acids, vitamin B5 and phytantriol to heal and calm angry hair down and make it happy once again. And my hair is ecstatic! Cleaner ($28/5oz), Conditioning Crème ($31/5oz), Complex ($40/6.7oz), Masque ($38/5oz).

And the timing on getting these was perfect as I have been slowly lightening my hair color. These added the necessary moisture and treatment without taking up too much time with too many different products. Simple names, simple packaging, and no filler. All @ bumbleandbumble.com
