Two fragrances to try!


Here are my two favorite scents right now: Kenzo and Thierry Mugler's "Alien." They are both light and airy with a sweetness that isnt too overbearing. Kenzo (the beautiful bottle on the left) is $95. I got my bottle from Sephora. Thierry Mugler's amazing line of perfumes (which also include Angel and Womanity among others) can be ordered online at thierrymugler.com or at Nordstrom. The size pictured (on the right) is $75.

P.S. Christmas time will be here before you know it! These are great gifts!!

Very Green and Very Organic



A couple of weeks ago, I rushed into DC from my job to attend a product launch for Herban Lifestyle. The new line "Naked" was questionable at first. I'm always weary of "really natural" products because I think they may not work as well as your standard products with all of the chemicals most of us can't pronounce.

BUT, at the event I decided to try the green tea facial soap along with all of the other goodies in our freebie bags. The products are amazing! After only a few days of using the facial soap, I noticed a big difference in my skin. I also encourage you to try the lip balms. They made my lips super, super soft.

The products are made from pure ingredients and there are no colors, fragrances, etc. They are all packaged in 100% recycled labels. Good for you AND the environment : )
