Giveaway Break - Avene Body Care

The heritage of dermo-cosmetic brand Eau Thermale Avene dates back over 260 years to the discovery of the curative properties in thermal water (check out the companies timeline on their site). Most recently, Avene has come out with a full line of body care for sensitive skin, to improve skin comfort, skin tone adn skin hydration.

Body Scrub, rich in Avène Thermal Spring Water, provides a mild, non-abrasive skin exfoliation to reveal clearer, softer and smoother skin. This non-irritating scrub features a dual exfoliating action that is both mechanical with jojoba beads and polyethylene waxes and chemical with sodium salicylate. Studies proved that after daily use for 3 weeks, 100% of users had softer skin, 95% noted that their skin was clearer and 90% found their skin to be smoother. ($20)

Moisturizing Body Lotion, very rich in Avène Thermal Spring Water and triglycerides, quickly absorbs to moisturize and protect, while leaving the skin with a smooth, non-greasy feel. Studies proved that with one application per day after 3 weeks, 100% of users had more hydrated skin, 97% noted an improvement in suppleness and 97% found their skin to be softer. ($18)

Body Oil, rich in natural plant-based oils and Vitamins A and E, nourishes, hydrates and restores the skin’s hydrolipidic film to leave parched skin soft, supple and comfortable. ($20)

China Glaze Lemon Fizz

'Rain, Rain, Go Away!'

It won't stop raining here in Michigan. I guess Spring has sprung...I hope all the rain is over by the time the summer months roll around.

Does the weather got you down? Paint your nails a fun color to bring some sunshine into your life! Try out China Glaze's Lemon Fizz from the Up and Away collection. This bright yellow is like sunshine in a bottle. Don't forget your toes!

Lancôme L'Absolu Crème De Brillance

Lancome made my day with L'Absolu Creme De Brillance. It's a cross between a gloss and a balm, goes on smooth and is super hydrating. The secret ingredients are:
*Shine boosting oils and light diffusing pearls that provides a rich color
*Pro-Xylane boosts hydration within the skin
*Glycerin and hyaluronic acid hydrate lips by pulling water from the environment and help it stay put

I was fortunate to try this in Blush Classique. The color is super rich and makes my lips look fuller. The sponge applicator is my favorite, you don't have to worry about individual bristles separating and becoming messy.

Looking for your next gloss splurge? I would put this one in the hat.

This collection encapsulates it, with sanddabs, seashells, the magic of marine life decorating packaging in the most soothing, sultry shades of summertime. NEW! Cream Bronzer and NEW! Bronze Body Oil pair up with other faux tanners and scorching summer colours to get let you close your eyes and go To The Beach!

Available May 28^th – July 2010
