Laura Geller: Baby Cakes-Baked Complexion Palette


From JenB:

Baby Cakes-Baked Complexion Palette

There is a "Balance-n-Brighten", a "Ethereal Rose Baked Powder" and a "Bronze-n-Brighten" which all work very well.

The Rose Baked Powder has a nice light rose shade, but not overpowering.

The Bronze-n-Brighten really gives a light bronze, shimmery look.

I don't use the Balance-n-Brighten as much, but the first time it did seem to even my skin tone. bit.

Lipstick Queen: Big Bang Theory Illusion Gloss


From JenB:


I love it. It lasts relatively long; doesn't come off as much as other glosses.
There's barely enough light pink color to notice--it's more shimmery than anything.
I find it also works well over my regular lipstick, brightens it up a bit.

Make the world green!

I can't attest to the homeopathic qualities, but this is really cool:

Sunburnt???

Sometimes the sun gets through all of our precautionary measures.
Those UV rays are persistent, breaking through layer upon layer on sunblock!
What to do next?

A QUICK TIP ON HOW TO HEAL SUNBURN FAST…from Kayla Fioravanti.
Kayla Fioravanti is the Vice President, Chief Formulator, ARC Registered & Certified Aromatherapist for Essential Wholesale (www.essentialwholesale.com) and its lab division Essential Labs. Kayla says if you get a sunburn apply some lavender essential oil to the areas: You can either use it directly out of the bottle onto your burns, which is perfect if you have a very bad burn. Or you can drop some into a cool bath and/or you can add a few drops to some Aloe Vera gel before applying.

Crest Pro-Health Enamel Shield Toothpaste - Fresh Mint




This protects against your enamel wearing-off but also fights cavities, sensitivity, gingivitis, tarter and plaque. It also whitens and freshens breath. It's a good gritty paste with little scrubbing beads so you feel like they are really cleaning your teeth. Again, love the cap that makes it stand in my medicine cabinet.

Oral-B CrossAction ProHealth Tooth Brush


Just in time, I needed a new tooth brush and like I've mentioned before, I'm a teeth person. This brush is so sturdy and firm. The bristles are thick thus clean really well. This thing has gum massagers and power tip bristles. And it also has a great tongue cleaner. It mimics a dentist teeth cleaning like no other!
