GLAM GLOW! Glowing Skin for days!

Hello Gorgeous!

OMG! OMG! OMG!  I just tried an awesome product called GLOW GLAM!  My skin is super soft like a baby's butt! 

What It is:
An exfoliating anti-aging facial mask for women who want to stay looking young!

What It Does:
Resurfaces the face for soft, glowing, smooth skin!

Key Ingredients:
Volcanic pumice rock (exfoliator), French sea clay (pore minimizer and oil absorber), green tea leaf (antioxidant), Teaoxi (moisturizer and antioxidant)

How It Feels/Smells/Looks:
It feels grainy; it tightens as it dries, and also has a tingling sensation letting you know it is working.  It is suppose to smell like a green herbal-scent, but to me it smells like poo a bit (sorry! you want my honest opinion and that is what I think it smells like).  

Why I LOVE It: 
This mud feels pleasantly natural with its French clay and tea leaf bits.  I love the feel of the tingling sensation, but not as much as I love the glowing radiant super soft skin that lasts for days! I never thought that my 40 year old skin could look and feel better, but it does. I also love the price at $69.  

FYI:
If you shop with Neiman Marcus during Beauty Week this week (Sept. 6th- 16th) and buy a jar of GLAM GLOW you get a mini Little Sexy GLAM GLOW for FREE!

How to Make Your Own Pore Strips!

Hello Gorgeous! 

Ever have those nasty blackheads on your nose or chin?  At one time or another we all suffer from some skin problems.  I have found an inexpensive way to make pore strips instead of spending lots of money on the ones at the store. 

Here is what you need:





Pore Strips Ingredients:
  • 1 Tablespoon Unflavored Gelatin
  • 1 1/2- 2 Tablespoons Milk (any kind)
  • and a small container to mix
Microwave the gelatin for about 10-15 seconds.  It will get creamier in the microwave.  Stir that around and start applying it IMMEDIATELY to your face.  This stuff hardens up fast so you’ve got to act fast.  Make sure you apply to a clean face.
Only 2 ingredients and you are blackhead free

Neiman Marcus Beauty Event Fall 2012

Hello Gorgeous!

Neiman Marcus is having their Beauty Event starting September 6th -16th.  If you spend $100 you will receive a large tote (you pick the color of tote) along with samples inside.  If you spend a certain amount at a certain beauty counter you get their free gift plus the Neiman Marcus tote.  Since some people don't have a NM in their area I took the liberty of taking photos of all the free gifts including the tote you automatically get with a $100 purchase. I am really not impressed with the NM tote (if I had to pick one the taupe color tote would be my pick), but the free gifts from each beauty counter are totally worth it. My favorites are the Dior gift, YSL gift, Kate Somerville gift, and Armani gift.  I could pick a few more because they all are awesome!  


Here is the list of free gifts with purchase. Have fun shopping!
