Blogging at the best of times aint easy, but once in a while the mailman will ring the doorbell and what he has in his hands reminds me why I love it so much. Over the last couple of weeks Ive been receiving some goodies from various beauty companies. So its that time again for another Products Im Lovin feature these are the items Ill continue paying long after the freebies run out! NARS has added the Monoi Body Glow II oil to their beauty line. Native to the South Pacific and France, Monoi de Tahiti oil is the result of macerating the native tiare flower (Tahitian gardenia) in refined coconut extract for at least ten days, slowly infusing the oil with nutrients as well as a delicate, natural fragrance. Available at Sephora.com for $59, this oil leaves my skin silky smooth and smelling so sweet. Its great for skin that dries easily as it locks in the moisture from your shower/bath. Also use as a massage oil for post-Valentines day fun! ;)
My hair has found a new best friend in Miss Jessies Rapid Recovery treatment. Ive been using it once every week for the last 3 weeks as a deep conditioner and my hair loves it! My hair is so soft and bouncy after each use and my hair seems shinier than ever. The 12oz tub costs $48 but if youre weary about making such an expensive commitment, try the sample 20oz tub for just $9.
Elizabeth Arden has launched a new foundation. Intervene Makeup SPF 15 is a new liquid makeup with Biodormin - helps prevent skin aging and evens skin tone. Though they dont have this foundation in a variety of colors for black skin, the darkest they go is Soft Cocoa (pictured), I like how light it feels after application. At $36, this isnt the cheapest foundation out there but is does offer excellent finish. Let the intervention begin!
Hands up all of you who are fed up of mascara that clumps together your eyelashes. This mascara by Bourjois Paris has been around for awhile but Ive only just discovered it. Unlike typical mascaras that have brush applicators the Yes to Volume, has a comb applicator that does a good job of separating the lashes while it elongates. I use it to supplement my regular mascaras. It finishes up my lashes nicely! It costs $14, but I think its totally worth it.
