Line to Love:: Beridan Naturals

If there is one beauty product that I have a weakness for (besides lipsticks) it is luxurious bath products - oils, soaks and butters.  It is the little things in life that mean the most like a long bath or inhaling the revitalizing aroma of an essential oil.  I recently discovered Beridan Naturals, a line of bath products that incorporates natural, organic and ethically sourced ingredients that are all crafted by hand and packaged in reusable or recyclable packaging.  I am most intrigued by the butters and bath milk which look like the perfect treat after a long day.  You can shop the entire collection here.

Product Spotlight:: Vineyard Hill Naturals Milk & Honey Body Collection

The combination of milk and honey evokes pure comfort.  I recently discovered the line Vineyard Hill Naturals and couldn't help but be instantly smitten with the pretty packaging and the lightly scented products.  My favorite is Milk & Honey, a delightful collection that includes products body lotion, body wash, soap and body butter.  This scent has the creaminess of milk and the sweetness of honey but with hints of nutty coconut.  Vineyard Hill Naturals can be purchased at Target.  

Beauty Profile:: Ole Henricksen Nurture Me & Ultimate Lift Firming Serum

When temperatures reach the teens or even single digits there is one thing that you must do, layer - layer everything, your clothing and the oils, serums and creams that protect your skin from the elements.  I can say that my skin would be in complete disarray if it were not for these two Ole Henricksen products and their face oil (I wrote about it here)  - when combined they are a powerful trio that acts like armor during these excruciatingly cold months that can wreck havoc on your complexion (not to mention the chlorine from the pool at the gym).  Applying the Nurture Me Cream is like massaging a thick layer of pudding on your skin - it is luxurious, incredibly moisturizing and is laced with an addicting creamsicle aroma.  It is chock-full of powerful ingredients like Evening Primrose Oil and Vitamin A & C which help nourish and promote a uniform complexion while being extra gentle on sensitive skin.  If you are looking for a moisturizer that penetrate and moisturize thirsty skin I definitely recommend it.

Now let's talk wrinkles, or rather preventing them.  Since I first started working in the beauty industry at the age of fifteen I have been using anti-wrinkle creams - it might sound crazy but if there are two actions that can prevent premature aging is moisturizing and sunscreen.  Today there are so many amazing serums that can boost your moisturizers power like the Ole Henricksen Ultimate Lift Firming Serum.  This serum contains a cocktail of botanicals, hyaluronic acid, which plums and protects against moisture loss and Copper Tripeptide which fend-off free radical damage.
