REDUX ~
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. I
love everything about it…the changing colors, the crisper and cooler
temperatures, comfort food, and of course, new skincare, new body care, and new
beauty products. Following are some new
product discoveries I’ve come across that would be perfect for your seasonally
adjusted skincare, body care, makeup routines, and personal care. Anyone of
these product discoveries would go great in your workout or weekender bag. Enjoy!
~ The Right Stuff for That New Look and Feel ~
Avon Big
& False Lash, Blackest Black ~ If you want long, full, and lush lashes, this
is THE product for you. The exclusive
brush design conforms to the eye’s natural form, allowing for the Mascara to get down to the root of the
lash line and evenly distribute the lash-building formula. Another plus is that it’s also waterproof,
flake-proof, and smudge-proof. https://www.avon.com
Burt’s
Bees Lip Crayon, Napa Vineyard and Tinted Lip Balm, Pink Blossom ~ You’ll think this
beautiful matte wine Lip Crayon color
was fresh picked from a Napa Vineyard. Key ingredients include Shea Butter, Kendi Oil, and Jojoba Oil, which are beneficial to
drenching lips with restorative moisture.
Easy to apply and long-lasting.
If you want to drench your lips with maximum hydration and just leave a
hint of color, then the Lip Balm is
perfect for you. Key ingredients include
Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Olive Fruit
Oil, and Sunflower Seed Oil. Glides
on effortlessly and keeps lips hydrated throughout the day. http://www.burtsbees.com
Josie
Maran Coconut Watercolor Eyeshadow, Rio De Rose Gold, Coconut Watercolor Lip
Stain, Shine, Pink Escape and Getaway Red, and 100% Pure Argan Oil ~ Turn your eyes into a
subtle fall kissed copper with Watercolor
Eyeshadow in Rio De Rose Gold; the curved sponge-tip applicator makes
application effortless. Key ingredients
include nourishing coconut water and Argan-infused
natural pigments. These ingredients
nourish the delicate eye, while infusing the delicate skin with restorative
hydration. Both of the Coconut Watercolor Lip Stain & Shine
colors added fall’s burnished colors to the lips. Designed with a double-ended applicator of a Stain on one end in a deeper color of
the Shine on the opposite end, which
is in a complimentary color. Pink Escape is a beautiful neutral that
enhances any skintone. Getaway Red is a subtle, understated
color that’s more beauty than brash and brightens all skintones. Key ingredients include nourishing coconut water and Argan-infused natural pigments. The clever applicator design lets you create
a matte look, or glossy look, or a combination of both for color-infused lip
drama. The Pure Argan Oil is a bit of practical luxury; use it everywhere as
an intensive moisturizing treatment to face, nails, body, and hair. http://www.josiemarancosmetics.com
KMS
California Moist Repair Leave-In Conditioner and Hair Stay Anti-Humidity Seal ~ If you’re tired using
conditioners, waiting for them to do their thing, and then rinsing the product
off, this Leave-In Conditioner is
perfect for you. And, if you’re tired of
hairsprays that don’t hold-up to heat and humidity, then Hair Stay is for you; if provides maximum control without drooping
or loss of staying power to your coiffure, and there’s no sticky veil left on
your hairstyle. Both products are
designed to maximize your haircare routine by eliminating time and effort, with
effective time-saver products. http://www.kmscalifornia.com/
Molton
Brown Replenishing Hand Cream, Coco & Sandalwood, and Pink Peppercorn ~ Deeply hydrating Hand Cream that leaves hands and
cuticles drenched in long-lasting hydration for extended periods of time. Coco
& Sandalwood is a beautifully fragranced and restorative Hand Cream that’s subtly fragranced with
a top note of coconut, a middle note of
Jasmine, and a base note of Sandalwood.
Key ingredients include truffle
extract, coconut fruit, and shea butter.
Pink Peppercorn is another beautifully fragranced and restorative Hand Cream that’s subtly fragranced with
a top note of fiery pink pepper, a middle
note of ginger, and a base note or exotic patchouli. Key ingredients include white truffle extract, spicy pink pepper pods, and shea butter. http://www.moltonbrown.com/store/index.jsp

stains on your teeth; easy to apply from the tube and angled applicator; your
tongue distributes the pleasant tasting minty-treatment. Keep your efforts in maintaining your

~ In Closing ~
Celebrate
fall and embrace all of its wonders.
Fall is like spring, in that it often enters on tip-toe, without much
fanfare or hoopla…that is, until nature unleashes her marvelous rich autumnal
burnished color palette of red, brown, orange, and yellow to tree and shrub…the
beauty is fleeting and isn’t around for a long time…it’s a seasonal flurry that
etches itself in the psyche...so, enjoy it, while celebrating it.
That’s
it for this edition. Until the next one,
remember to take care of yourself and those you love.
