Holiday Cleanse: Body & Beauty Boosters

With year end parties, dinners and mixers, you can lose track of the body you worked so hard to maintain throughout the year.  In between your 'holiday hopping', be sure to tune into yourself and revamp your system with some body and beauty boosters. Consider these quick tips a way to resuscitate your health.

Tomatoes aren't just for your marinara sauce. This super fruit is packed with antioxidants, vitamin A, vitamin C and natural acids which will help keep your skin clear and your oils balanced. Give yourself a fast facial by taking a sliced wedge or some crushed tomatoes and running them over your face.

Apparently tomato extracts work so well, the popular Burt's Bees brand bottled it! They have an entire tomato line which includes toner, soap, creams and sprays. So, while you start prepping that sauce, go ahead and give yourself an organic facial!

  Like many other things from history's past, tea tree oil has evolved into an extensive product line including oils, creams, soaps and gels. This natural oil is an intense antioxidant that serves as a quick "medical fix" for several things. Tea Tree Oil is a concentrated formula that can be used to clear acne, athletes foot and cuts.  So, if you are stressing this holiday season, traveling to lots of hotels or happen to cut yourself while wrapping presents, have some tea tree oil handy for an instant cure.

   Paul Mitchell's line  of Tea Tree products is my favorite on the market.  Keep your entire body soft and hydrated with tea tree soap or, have a conditioning shave with tea tree shaving cream.  One of my favorite tricks is to mix in a few drops of tea tree oil with your body lotion and apply to your skin after your shower, or even to your facial moisturizer to help keep your skin clear!

Go ahead, dive into a piece of that apple pie at your Thanksgiving dinner.  We all know that vitamin C is good for you and apples are packed with it.  By biting into a crisp apple or enjoying a slice of that gooey apple pie, you'll be treating your body and your palate. Vitamin C restores skin cells and continues to keep them protected.  So why not satisfy both your sweet tooth and your skin?

Don't just carve your pumpkin this season, make sure to eat it too! Pumpkins get their orange color from an ingredient called carotenoids. Carotenoids help "neutralize free radicals" so that cells are protected against damage.  Even better, pumpkins are saturated in other nutrients such as fiber, iron and zinc and can even help fight cataracts. So instead of throwing away all that great pumpkin meat after you are finished carving it, make it into a pumpkin pie!

I was recently introduced to Oil of Olay's Regenerist Microdermabrasion & Peel System and it was everything I didn't think it would be, but more!  This two-step system works together to will leave your skin feeling refreshed and cleansed. In the first step, you apply the derma-crystals. In the second step, you add the activator serum.  The directions are easy and in minutes your skin will feel conditioned and instantly renewed. With continued use you will noticed an improvement in the texture and appearance of your skin. This has definitely hit my list for Holiday-Must-Haves!

Men's Fashion Friday: Shades

The trend for men's sunglasses for 2009 doesn't skew too far from that of 2008.  Retro styles and aviators remain popular for ready-to-wear, while the modern, futuristic looks continue to impact the sporting market.  As we all know, Ray-Ban made popular the aviator look and they continue to maintain the classic style with making little to no changes to the design. On the flip side, other avid designers, such as Tom Ford, tend to update the trend in the aviator look by implementing various design elements to the bridge, tweaking the shape of the lens, and even stylizing the arms. 

Tom Fords 2009 Aviator James Bond Style is the hot item this season in men's sunglasses. The dub "James Bond" was credited because Daniel Craig sported this style in the 007 movie Quantom of Solace.  This style is classic and pays tribute to the heritage aviator shape and compliments the look of nearly any man.

Bulgari's 5007 style has a classic aviator shape but is more athletic. Compared to Tom Ford's style, you can see that the lenses have a slightly different shape, resulting in a more modern aviator look, however, consumers can easily classify this as an aviator style.

Prada offers a chunkier, more retro style. If you are trendier and like to defer from "classic", this style is definitely a statement. With gradient lenses, a one-piece look and athletic striped detailing on the arms, these shades will make a fashionable impact on anyone.

Oakley Elite. Period.

The innovation continues, the patents grow, the research proves in creating salable, reliable glasses. Technology and impeccable designs break through in Oakley's Elite Collection. Designs remain sleek and continue to be craved by consumers and unsuccessfully knocked off by those who only wish they could fathom such stylish innovation. Can you imagine a pair of glasses made of material that is "thinner than human hair and stronger than tensile steel?" So much impact is compressed into this collection that I cannot begin to justify describing it with my own words.  Please, click the Oakley Elite link above and enter a world of unsurpassed invention where prices rise up to $4,000!

Rinette Azizo's "Band Stand"

While flipping through WWD,  I came across an article highlighting fashion designer, Rinette Azizo. I instantly became intrigued and as I continued to read the article about her I quickly learned why WWD wanted to do a piece on her. 

Rinette has created the ultimate way to add flare to your hair with custom made headbands. But, not just any headbands.  No two pieces are alike as each piece is hand-crafted and uses the finest materials from silks and velvets to delicate crystals and feathers.  The design inspiration is both playful and thoughtful in order to make each piece a treasure of its own.

Azizo's acclaimed "Band Stand" business is something you might consider as the millennium's "modern-day headpiece." Forget the bulky monstrosities that were top heavy from years ago.  Buy into one of RA's headbands and you're hair will curl itself for you!

 Azizo's headbands were an instant hit and locals from her hometown of Brooklyn, NY quickly started requesting custom pieces.  Azizo emphasizes that she wants girls to "be noticed in a nice way" and these couture headbands are a fabulous fix for making that kind of statement.  

Brides also started requesting headpieces for their weddings and, with that, came the birth of the bridal collection!  Sass up your gown with a Spanish inspired flower or a crystal encrusted piece with exquisite pleating detail. Each style is delicate and classy, adding the perfect touch to any bridal gown.

Wrap up someones wrist with the Alana Embroidered Cuff.

The Veronica 4 Strand Necklace is sassy, sparkly and oh-so-sexy! Four strands of Czech stones and glass beads create this vintage inspired piece and is finished with a crystal studded silver clasp.  Wear the clasp in front for additional sparkle or in back to hide the extra shine.  This is a great compliment to any LBD or LWD, but don't be frightened by the glamour in this piece, you can also pair it with a white-tee and boyfriend jeans.   

Like the glitz but not a lot of glam?  We've got you covered! The Greta Single Strand necklace is 40" of sparkly glass beads and Czech stones.  Wear it as a single strand or tune into its versatility and double it over for a layered look. 

Let me introduce the Natasha Embroidered Bib Necklace. This style remains a hot item as it continues to scream affordable couture.  Glass beads, Swarovski Crystals, pearls, and silk rosettes are all hand embroidered into silk fabric and finished with an adjustable gros-grain ribbon. The photo does not do this well crafted piece of art justice.  Purchase this necklace to see what all the fuss is about and you'll see why people base their outfit around this piece!

Add a little ice with the Glint Flower Earrings. These studs cast the perfect touch to any outfit and reflect just the right amount of shine.  Be sure to pull these out of your jewelry box for an easy fix to any outfit.

Men's Fashion Friday: Sexy Scents

Women love the smell of men's cologne so much that candle retailers have figured out a way to bottle the scents in wax-form, give them names like "My Boyfriends T-Shirt" and sell them off to women all over the globe so we can breathe the scent of our boyfriend when he's not there.  

A great smelling guy will catch the fancy of any girl.  With scents from foody to fresh, sexy to citrus and macho to elegant, there is an unlimited assortment.  Don't make it too complicated, but make it your own.  

La Nuit de l'Homme by Yves St. Laurent might be hard to pronounce, but no worries, cause when a female counterpart smells this, she won't care what it is! YSL created a liquid aphrodisiac that is both masculine yet sensitive.  Spritz on some La Nuit de l'Homme and a pick-up line won't be necessary! 

Gucci girl, meet Gucci guy! Gucci by Gucci  is spicy, rich and hearty and is the perfect companion to your girl's Gucci perfume. This liquid lust mixes cypress with a splash of jasmine and tobacco leaves (yes.... tobacco leaves) to make it, well, "addictive." 

Armani Code is a sexy, subtle citrus scent you'll be sure to love. This contemporary fragrance is sophisticated and soft, but entirely masculine.  It'll penetrate your shirt fibers, so just leave your tee behind for your girlfriend so she won't have to purchase that candle! 

For you traveling men, be sure to leave your girl feeling like a guy is still around with the scent of a "Man-dle"!  Ebba Los Angeles' 100% soy, My Boyfriends T-Shirt Candle by Flickr (left) is crisp, clean and is exactly what it's label says it is! 

Yankee Candle also has a man-dle and is my favorite of all the man-dle scents!  MidSummer's Night (right) might not sound like it smells like a guy, but it is the ultimate man candle! And with the name MidSummer's Night, it might just remind you of something else...
