Smart Cover-Up Kit
6Aug10
I was recently sent the Smart Cover-Up Kit and I have really enjoyed playing with it for the past few weeks. The 10-piece set comes in two tones; Light Combo and Dark Combo. Depending on your choice you’re then given 3 shades of concealing crème in addition to a Color Corrector, Moisture Primer Lotion, Cover Stick, Vitamin Beauty Stick, blending sponges, camouflage brush and a travel case. I’m generally a medium-beige in foundation so I went with the Light Combo, which includes Light Beige, Medium Beige & Dark Beige concealing crèmes. That was a mistake! I gave the Light Beige away, the Medium Beige was way to light and the Dark Beige would be my correct color if it didn’t have such strong red undertones. That said I more

Daylight Defense by Dermalogica
28Jun10
I was given 3 pieces of advice when leaving for Colorado; bring a good book, watch out for the altitude (drink lots of water), and pack your sunscreen.
Done and done. Since I don’t like to check baggage, for sunscreen I went with Dermalogica’s Limited Edition Daylight Defense Kit. It’s very compact and consist of four sun-protecting products all of which are under 3oz, making it the perfect set to bring on my travels.
The Set includes:

- MultiVitamin Body Block SPF20 (1.7 oz) – nourishing body sunscreen that blends effortlessly onto skin with Shea Butter and Evening Primrose that helps hydrate skin and protect against dryness. It also contains Panthenol which helps skin recover from previous sun damage.
- After Sun Repair (1.3 oz) – after sun balm that helps repair recent UV damage, and soothe skin from overexposure from the sun. Formulated with a blend of homeopathic herbs to reduce redness and soothe painful sunburn.
- Solar Shield SPF15 (.28 oz)- Water resistant, sun protecting moisture stick for lips, ears and nose.

Tie One Off Father’s Day Set From Votre Vu
18Jun10
Post by Mike Twombly
Every year, the weeks leading up to Father’s Day are the same. You struggle with what to buy him, and eventually just break down and ask. But if your father is anything like mine, he’ll probably tell you he doesn’t need anything that badly, and that anything you can come up with will be fine. One suggestion to save yourself that headache is to get him something that he wouldn’t normally choose for himself – especially something that will be an upgrade to some of the things he already uses everyday. That’s just what Votre Vu had in mind with their ‘Tie One Off‘ Father’s Day Set.
The set features four different products, all designed to indulge your dad and help him look his best. Let’s start with the Ten Gauge energy shot – a fresh and flavorful juice drink for the morning, after work or the gym. Amazingly, in only 30 calories they packed in many all natural healthy supplements including B Vitamins, Selenium, Yerba Mate extract and Sea Buckthorn. This blend will both energize dad and help maintain his virility, something he wouldn’t be celebrating Father’s Day without! *cringe*
Most Dads love simplicity, and a product like Votre Vu’s ‘Formula 1 Hair, Face, and Body Wash’ (3.0 fl. oz) will definitely please even the 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!
