Have you ever smelled 100 year old rose petals?? I have, Nana kept some in an antique container. She gave me some and I used them to start my own stash of sweet smelling dried petals. When I first smelled Jo Malone's Red Roses I was INSTANTLY taken to Nana's house and the scent of 100 year old rose petals. I can;t describe it, it smells like roses for sire but there is something else...can't put my finger on it. If you look at the notes you will see, crushed violet leaves and hints of lemon and spearmint, I don't think that was in Nana's but it is absolutely divine.
And to sweeten the pot, for Breast Cancer Awareness month, Jo Malone will donate $15.000 in conjunction with the North American sales of any Red Roses product to the Breast Cancer Research Fund...
How sweet is that??
Smell Pretty!!
Greetings from Los Angeles!! I have soooo much to tell you guys but I won't spoil it. Of course, the number one thing on my mind this month is still breast cancer awareness. If you haven't entered to win my $300 gift basket by donating $10 - why haven't you?? All month long I will have ways for you to give to breast cancer research a cause that is near and dear to my heart. Here is one of them...
If you are like me, you avoid putting anything into your hair to weigh it down before you blowdry. BUT what about frizz tamers, creams and re-vitalizers?? Yeah we need them but most of them are either too gloppy or oily that they weigh your hair down or they have so much alcohol in them you need not bother as your hair will be dry as the Sahara.
Well I have found one that is neither of those AND you can give back to Breast Cancer research by purchasing it!! Ojon Pink Ribbon Revitalizing Mist is available for a limited time only in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The first product from Ojon designed specifically for the cause, 20 percent of North American sales will be donated to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
You know how much I love Ojon in general but this really is a top notch addition to their line. Many think that the Ojon oil is too greasy (it's not, if you tried it you would know...LOL) but this incarnation of it FEELS good on the hair. Spray it in and blow your hair dry, the mist is a weightless leave-in conditioner that detangles, refreshes and preps hair for styling. Your hair looks and smells amazing and is shiny and bouncy to boot.
You can find this gem at Sephora OR if you go to teh Ojoin site they offer free shipping in October on all orders through that include Pink Ribbon Revitalizing Mist.

Remember this bottle?? I think it may have been one of the first facial moisturizers that I ever used. Either Mom or Nana got it in GWP from the department store (one would get the GWP and then tell the other so we always ended up with two of everything...which was great for me and my sister! LOL). It was light and effective and just perfect for little 12 year old me.
For Breast Cancer Awareness month, Clinique has made a special, limited-edition bottle of its best-selling Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion. The extra-large sized bottle comes with a collectible Clinique and Pink Ribbon key chain (so cute!!)
To do their part, Clinique will donate $10 for every bottle sold during the month of October to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation....FAB!!
Available in the jumbo 6.7 oz size at major department stores and Clinique.com.
