Meet the Ladies of Pylones
20May10
The most common questions you’ll hear me ask in my apartment (mostly to myself) are where’s my nail file? Tweezers? Nail clippers? Tape? Scissors? It feels like no matter how many pairs of each I own, in my moment of need they are no where to be found. Well thanks to my new friends from Pylones some of my problems are solved.
Pylone’s line of grooming products, which includes a tweezer and nail file set, both have a suction cup to adhere to your bathroom mirror, not only has made me more organized but are also so cute! The suction cup allows you to hang the product either upright or vertical (see picture) for your convenience and really brightens up my bathroom. The Tweezers ($12) come in 7 different lady choices, the nail file ($15) in 8, all in various ethnicities, costumes and hair colors. Both measure roughly 1” in base, 4” in height. They are also incredibly purse-friendly should you be so charmed by these ladies you should want to put them in your makeup case. However, if you have my more

Super Amazing Gift Set Deals From Lush!
13Jan10
I walked by the Lush location in Lahaina on my last day in Maui, and was blown away by the amazing sale they’re having on their holiday gifts! Buy one, get one free on all holiday wrapped sets, or buy any holiday product, get two free! The sets were already a great value, but considering how great this promo is, now is the time to stock up if you’re a Lush fan. I should mention that aside from already being gift wrapped (most of which are in non-holiday paper so they are perfect for all occasions) they come with a surprise 15% off coupon inside. I discovered that lovely surprise when I gave my little sister the You Shall Go to the Ball Gift Set for Christmas. I checked with the sales rep., and the sale is going on at all locations (and online) until they run out. Get them while you can!

Holiday Treats!
16Dec09
Looking for a yummy treat without all the calories? Here are some of my favorites.
1. Soft & Dreamy Drenched in Pink Super Soft Body Lotion by Victoria’s Secret
This light weight, limited edition lotion absorbed effortlessly into my skin with the delicious smell of meringue and vanilla whipped cream. The Pink line is my general go-to for the teenagers in my life, and it hasn’t let me down yet.
$12/ 500mL/16.9 FL OZ.
For more information visit victoriassecret.com
2. Almond Cookie Candle by Carol’s Daughter
Get into the spirit with the soft aromatic blend of almonds and marzipan. Hours after I blew out this soy candle, the scent lingered in my room, and the wax stayed soft enough to use a little on my dry patches and cuticles (like a salve to add moisture).
Burns for approximately 50 hours. $29/7.2 oz.

3. Cherry Blossom Hugs & Kisses by L’Occitane
I love this little duo set — Ultra hydrating, sweet smelling cherry hand cream that’s not overpowering with a lightly pigmented red cherry lip gloss that’s not too sticky; all boxed up in a cute package.
$18/ Hand Cream 1 oz, Lip Gloss 0.5 oz.
