Holiday Scents & Scrubs

Filed Under Bath & Body, Holidays | 3 Comments

‘Tis the season for cranberries and snow and I’m betting what you really need is a little rest and relaxation. But how does one find the time to indulge in a hot relaxing bath in between Christmas shopping, travel plans and getting your home ready for guests? If you are stressed and busy but have little time for R & R, let the orange and cranberry scents from Lather turn your shower into a spa!

Start with the wonderful Cranberry Sugar Scrub made with pure turbinado sugar granules and cranberry seeds, this is a gentle scrub that surrounds you with the refreshing scent of cranberry seeds. If you have sensitive skin, this scrub is a perfectly gentle choice for you.

Follow with Lather’s Cranberry Orange Body Wash, so fresh and subtle you’ll find yourself relaxing before you know it. Pamper your skin with the finishing touch of the Cranberry Orange Body Lotion. Light yet nourishing, this whole collection will cradle you in gentleness, taking good care of you and leaving you feeling warm and fuzzy inside.

Insider Beauty Tip:

For an experience that’s more energizing than relaxing (and smells great!) mix and match Lather’s Cranberry Collection with the Lalicious Holiday release Candy Cane Scrub and Body Butter. Smells exactly like those candy canes from your childhood days and oh so moisturizing!

Easy Thanksgiving Table Decorations

Filed Under Holidays, Home | 1 Comment

Looking for an easy way to make your table sparkle for the holidays? This is a very easy, beautiful idea that can easily be turned into a Christmas theme after Thanksgiving.

Start by filling two to six column vases (depending on how long your table is) with pine cones. This idea looks best with a mix a small and large pine cones, but can be arranged with either. If you live in a warmer climate you may not have pine cones lying around your backyard, don’t worry, any arts and crafts store will have them.

Next, you’ll need votive candles in either white, red or orange (an pumpkin or spice scent make this idea even more delicious). Place each votive in it’s own glass container, small cut bowls will catch the light of the candle and create a beautiful reflection on the table, or for a more modern look choose a simple glass votive holder. Finally you will need a bag of fall leaves, available at any crafts store.

Place the column vases filled with pine cones lengthwise on the table. Arrange a votive candle in between each column and one on each end (votive, vase, votive, vase, votive). Sprinkle the fall leaves lengthwise along the table, weaving them in and out of the votive candles and pillars.

For a more elegant touch add a porcelain place card holder and place card at each setting. Check back next week for easy ideas on how to turn this turkey day decor into a gorgeous Christmas table!

Hard Candy’s holiday release for this year includes nine favorites from the fabulous Hard Candy Eye Shadow Quartets. From classic neutrals to bold bright colors, this palette has something for all your favorite looks.

If you haven’t tried Hard Candy’s wonderful eyeshadow, the thing that sets them apart from ordinary shadow is the level of pigment, which is much higher than what you will find elsewhere.

Hard Candy has created a very sexy, chic package for these nine shadows making it a perfect gift for any woman who loves makeup and wants to mix and match her look. Better yet, grab one for yourself and one for your friend, once you see these gorgeous shadows you might not want to give them away!
