Today's Lil Bit 'O Happiness

Heaven And Earth Essentials Berry Bliss Whipped Sugar Scrub is soooooooooo, well, heavenly! Right now it's 15% off at their site and while I have Berry Bliss, it's available in a staggering number of choices. It's highly concentrated and leaves your skin crazy soft. Since every nutjob in Texas has been cranking their heat up to 90, my skin has been getting dry and itchy. Using this is like getting a wonderful scratch that covers your whole body. Afterwards your skin will be so moisturized that there's no point in even using lotion.

"With wonderful ingredients such as Organic Cane Sugar and Jojoba Oil. It is a scrub that is simply beautiful and effective. Upon contact with water, this unique formula emulsifies into a creamy lotion scrub, leaving you completely moisturized and exfoliated with no greasy residue. This creamy formula also allows you to scoop it (consistency of spreadable frosting) without a mess, or losing a majority of the product. And no slick tub mess!"


As a company, they're also quite impressive. All products are handmade in small batches AFTER you order them, so your product is always fresh. They always include a sample of something else for you to try with your order, and they rely on recycled materials for all of their packing materials. Their site is a fabulous maze of handmade bath and body products, handmade perfume oils, metaphysical items, organic teas and more. FABU!



BVLGARI OMNIA GREEN JADE by Bvlgari EDT SPRAY 2.2 OZ for WOMEN is THIRTY DOLLARS cheaper through this link than it is at Sephora. Whoo hoo! It smells fresh and clean and is excellent for the office space as it's non offensive and subtle. I ADORE this stuff. When I wear it, I huff on myself like I was a bottle of glue (JK!)

Notes:
Spring Water, Green Mandarin, White Peony, Nasturtium, Pear Tree Flower, Jasmine Petals, Fresh Pistachio, White Woods, Musk.


 Plus, their spokemodel is Julianne Moore. Who says no to Julianne Moore?

Korres Body Butters 7.95 oz Guava Body Butter is a winter go to for me. SOOOOOO thick and rich, but it still absorbs quickly and doesn't leave you feeling greasy, just hydrated. If you put it on right after you bathe, it traps the moisture into your skin and leaves your skin feeling downright plumped. I like to put it on after my evening bath so I feel super soft and cuddly. Slightly sweet tropical scent (it's available in tons of other scents as well, but guava is one of the most popular) that's light enough to be non-offensive and doesn't hang in a heavy cloud of scent over you. Also excellent for using on super rough patches like heels and elbows.

Designs by Taylor 2U makes absolutely ADORABLE stuff! You can get customized pieces where you get to choose what you want on your jewelry and I SOOOOOO need to get one that shows Dallas! The charms! The cuff links! Seriously original, seriously handmade, seriously awesome. When you check out, you just let her know what location you want on your piece (the map pieces) and easy breezy, puddin and pie, there you go!  I have a few of her hairpins that I like to wear on an almost daily basis because they're not just beautiful and unique, but also sturdy. Go take a browse through the store and see what you think!

Borghese Botanico Eye Compresses are excellent! They're a great deal, too- you get 60 compresses, so enough for 30 treatments. After I use them, The Husband likes me to let him use what's left and they make even his Italian eye bags go away a bit! I popped these babies on the last time I did a mud bath ( see previous  blog on Dead Sea mud) and felt like I was being pampered in a high end spa.....
