Sunday Morning Beauty Blog...

Shopping for a Beauty Product Junkie, and don't know what to get 'em? Desperately trying to get your man to start caring for his skin? Want to bring some fun to the bath and shower? I've put together my Top 5 Faves for you. To make it super simple, I've included links to online stores were you can get the goods. Happy browsing!

5. Origins One of the Guys Skincare Set ($34.50) For the man in your life who needs a little help with a skincare routine. This nifty set includes face wash, moisturizer, and shaving goodies. When it's this easy, how can he help but be groomed? Give him this.





4. Best of Bliss Holiday 2007 Set ($45) Know a sweet someone who's all go, go, go, and would love to have a few moments to themselves to maintain their natural beauty? This spa treat was made for Moms and busy professionals. It has everything from hand cream to foot cream and something for every place in between. With essential oils of lemon, sage, bergamot, and vanilla, they'll come out soothed, smooth, and glowing. Get it here, and see smiles.




3. Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm ($3) Everybody knows it, everybody loves it. It's the perfect stocking stuffer, and it's just the time of year when people shouldn't be without it. It tingles when you put it on, and it's mint flavor helps cover up the coffee breath you acquired trying to get warm. I've seen it sold at Borders, Wild Oats, and Ulta. You can get it from their website, and while you're at it, try some of the other varieties. You can't go wrong with this one. Great for men and women.




2. Lush Handmade Soaps, Bath Bombs, and Bath Sets ($3.95 - $276.95) Lush has been handmaking cosmetics and bath products since 1978 and now they have almost 400 stores worldwide. It's all cruelty free, organic, and fun. I was introduced to this fun company with some little sushi soaps I recieved as a gift, and I've been wanting to try more of their stuff ever since. You can find a gift that's pre-wrapped, in any price range, for any gal or guy on your list. How can you go wrong? If you don't have a store near you, look here for great gifts.




1. Bare Minerals by Bare Escentuals (2 payments of $29.99) I just cannot rave about this stuff enough! (Hey, I'm a poet and don't know it!) It may not inspire you to write poetry, but if you're looking for a new foundation you will be amazed at the coverage you get with this mineral powder. It's light. It won't come off on clothes. It stays on all day with minimal touch-ups, if any. It's beautiful and looks like your bare skin at it's best. I don't care if they never pay me for an endorsement. I will use this foundation for life. It is simply the best. If you aren't lucky enough to have a boutique in your city for a shade match, just order the kit that's closest to your tone. It'll be perfect. When you fall in love with it, remember who recommended it.

The Bare Minerals foundation is really good. I've had customers with a lot of problems with other makeup commenting that it's really good stuff and not causing them any problem.

It's sold pretty well in the salon so I've put it online too. Might be of interest to any readers you have in the UK who want to try it.
