Get The Skinny on Duchess Marden

The Skinny is having a private sale on Duchess Marden products.

Background about this line:
This line was inspired by a journey founder Marla Steuer took to Southeast Asia. Following a desert trek in India, she came upon pure rose water and discovered charm, ritual, scent and pleasure all at once. When she learned of the many benefits of the rose, she was smitten. Wishing to share her discovery, she created Duchess Marden, incorporating the healing properties of the rose, once only for royalty, into a completely natural skincare line. Model Josie Maran is a fan of this line.

Shopping Break - The Body Shop Sale

I just caught wind of the Body Shop Sale. I think it's in-store only. From 3-6pm ONLY, everything in the store is 3 for $30 (which is a huge deal for The Body Shop!). Call your local store for details!

Lancome Nutrix Royal Body Cream

Lancome Nutrix Royal Body, Intense Lipid Repair Body Cream, is not only ridiculously moisturizing, but it's smell is ultra comforting. This cool, creamy lotion is super hydrating and great for these colder months.

Nutrix Royal Body cream relieves the tightness in your skin that is caused by extreme dehydration. It uses Royal Lipideum, which is a unique technology enriched with Royal Jelly that supplements skin's own natural lipids for intense hydration.

The price point is at $34 for 7 oz. Yes, it's expensive, but if Lancome is offering a bonus gift with purchase, it would definitely be a good item to invest in. Plus, it's light pink container and gold top makes for nice counter decor.

Limited Edition Holiday Design Nails from Kiss

Spice up the holiday season with one of these four limited edition designs, available in Medium and Real Short lengths, by Limited Edition Holiday Design Nails from KISS.

I put these on for Halloween and they were a hit! They stayed on flawlessly for two days. The perfect amount of time for my work Halloween party on Friday, and for Halloween on Saturday.

The Design Everlasting French Nail Kits contain: 28 Nails in 14 sizes, 2g Glue, Mini-File, and a Manicure Stick.

New Technology

The bonded layers in the manufacturing process of this new nail create the most durable French nail ever, that won’t chip - guaranteed. The tips of previous French nails often chipped within 3-4 days of excessive wear and tear. But the new plastic tip is now made with colored molding, instead of air-brushing, so chipping is impossible

Price: $6.99

Availability: The Design Everlasting Nail Kits will be on shelves November 1st 2009 at all major drug stores nationwide including Rite Aide, CVS, Duane Reade and Kmart.

Review & Giveaway - The All Nighter

Loving this stuff. It's the perfect incentive to sleep in and not have to worry about washing my hair. The All Nighter is a styling powder that works magic for 2-day year old hair.

Normally I can't use dry shampoos or baby powder tricks because I have short hair and once slept on, sticks up like I stuck my finger in a socket. When I try to blow dry my 2-day year old hair straight, it ends up looking oily and mashed down.

I stayed out way past my bedtime this past Saturday, and slept in on Sunday. Waking up late and not feeling like washing my hair, I decided to try The All Nighter. I sprinkled some of the Neutral powder in my hair and 'fluffed it' like the bottle says too. The powder disappeared quickly into my hair. I then blow dried the back straight again and added more powder once finished. Voila! My hair looked freshly done! The All Nighter helped me to feel less guilty about staying out until 2am!

It comes in 6 different hair color shades, including a Neutral for those people who like to change their hair color often (me!).
