Flawless Complexion That Looks Natural




I had heard fabulous things about Becca Cosmetics, but was thrilled to find that their "system" accomplishes the 3 most important things...it covers blemishes and imperfections, stays on all day, feels light as air, and due to the HUGE range of colors that match everyone, and I mean EVERYONE it looks natural! I am extremely particular about concealers and foundations, and Becca's are some of the best I have come across. I never thought I would find anything to make me put aside my beloved Cle de Peau, but I could happily substitute either the compact concealer or the stick foundation and at about half the price, it thrills me even more! Everything in this line from the primers to the eye shadows is divine. The glosses are a personal favorite. The perfect amount of glossiness that doesn't make you look like you have been drooling, not too tacky and stays for hours. I just got one of the Becca Pressed Powders and feel like a princess every time I pull it out of my purse. Not only is the packaging great looking and sturdy, but it comes in its own chocolate brown storage pouch. Available exclusively at Entebello in Atlanta.


Favorite Holiday Gifts Under $30


I love giving a personal gift, especially if it is something the recipient can really use. One of my favorites that packs tons of bang for the buck is from Daub & Bauble. They have a charming line of hand soap, hand lotion, dish soap, and surface cleanser in 4 scrumptious scents and a variety of patterns to brighten any kitchen or bath. Best of all they are only $9 each! Pictured is the newest scent Arriba Cacao & Spice on the cute caddy to keep everything in its place. Other scents are: Tarocco Orange & Clove, Mission Fig & Thyme, and Sorrento Lemon & Ginger. Each with different patterns in complimentary colors. So fab!

PUCKER UP







I held off on ordering these for the totally selfish reason that I don't like glosses that have to be applied with a finger. Well...after enough requests, here they are, OXYMORON and SHINE from LIPSTICK QUEEN. So, now all I can think of is "why on earth did I wait???". These are 2 of my favorite new products.



OXYMORON is smooth and sheer like a gloss, but has a matte finish to leave your lips glowing and it does double duty on your cheeks too. It comes in 4 fresh neutrals that all give the youthful flush we wish we appreciated when we had it.



If OXYMORON is sweet & subtle, SHINE is in your face cool. Each shade is the ultimate in shine, gloss and effect for lips that WOW. The six shades ranging from clear red to luscious gold and silver tints come in generously sized pots that last and last. They glide on smooth, stay for hours, and make you feel as sexy as if you just got the call do be a "lip double" for Angelina.

So if you are like me and don't like to get your fingers sticky, either get over it or get a lip brush.

Marvis is Marvelous!!!




Marvis flavours are created by offsetting the aroma of mint. Jasmin Mint is the flavour pictured at left. There is also.......Ginger Mint, Aquatic Mint (light spearminty tone), Classic Strong Mint(altoidish), and a Whitening Mint. The Jasmin Mint, which is my personal favorite, tastes minty with a hint of jasmin tea essence.
They all leave your teeth feeling super clean and smooth for a very long time. The paste has a grittier texture than some, but not overly abrasive. Love it, and we have travel sizes too!
"The Marvis formula: white, protected teeth, fresh breath all day long, helps prevent tooth decay, tartar and plaque."

Model Co. Is Here!!!






Hello fellow junkies. We have just introduced Model Co. to our ever-growing cast of cult products. Let me just say that I am not usually into self tanning products, my belief is that when you are pale.....you are pale and when you are dark.....you are dark. However, this line is winning me over. The Main product here would be the "Tan Airbrush in a Can", it has a beautiful bronze buildable shade and a built-in bronzer for instant gratification. The staff here is hooked and we sold out of our first run in days. No orange after-effect and just a hint of shimmer for a light-catching evening glow.




The second gem in this most fabulous line are the "Lip Lights" lip glosses. They have a side mirror on the clear tube and when you pull out the gloss wand, an LCD light comes on so you can apply in low lighting. Very gimmicky but very cool and the colors are sheer and pretty with just a dash of shimmer. The gloss is just sticky enough to last but you won't have to pick the flies out of your lips. My personal favorite is the coral shade.



Last but definitely not least is the "Star Smile" teeth whitening lip color pen. OK, follow me......on one end of this pen is a very effective whitening gel with an easy clickable applicator(think "Stila" lip gloss) and on the other end is a retractable lip color. The lip colors all have a blue hue in the pigment so that your teeth look even whiter-------genius! The lip colors contain an ingredient called Lipodermol® LS 8656 which is a conditioning and moisturising ingredient to combat dryness and protect and improve lip condition. All-in-all these are the top picks from this great line. Make sure to come in and ask me (Jason) to show you the line.
