Don’t cover up your blemishes, erase them! Even though summer presents a host of skin issues, from the greasies to blackheads, you can get Kate Bosworth’s angelic complexion by using a potent, oil-absorbing treatment like Dr. Brandt’s new Pores No More Vacuum Cleaner. Just apply on problem area, let dry completely, rinse and pat dry.

New L’eauparKenzo eau Indigo

bottles2.jpg

I love L’eauparKenzo new fragrances eau Indigo! The bottles, as usual are beautiful enough just to display on your counter, the bottles are carved to fit together seamlessly and when the color of the bottles blend become indigo! How cool!

As for the scent, the men’s fragrance is very sexy and bright the citrus and coriander blend perfectly and balance out with a woody scent. I think the men’s is my favorite with its spicy fresh smell.

The women’s eau Indigo has a great mandarin and floral scent and while its strong enough to smell throughout the day it doesn’t overpower me or leave me sneezing. Both are great summer scents that my hubby and I will be enjoying as the weather warms. The women’s is so popular it it temporarily sold out but should be available on the Kenzo website shortly.

As night falls, L’eau par Kenzo becomes Eau Indigo, a pair of sensual fragrances for him and her inspired by the seductive dance of color and scent as dusk sets on water. Fresh, zesty notes unfold into a sensual base built around an amber note.

Need a gift idea or want something special for yourself?

I recently found a great local jewelry company at a Mom’s event at a local cafe. The company is Silver Love Letters, and the owner Leslie makes beautiful keepsake jewelry! For mother’s day I got the simple rings with my kids initials and and 3rd ring with a red heart. I love wearing them they are so cute and unique and draw a lot of compliments.

My order was filled super quick and the price was unbelievable. I am ready to order something else but I am having a hard time narrowing it down. If you are looking for a birthday, bridal shower gift or something for yourself. My brother is getting married this year and I am planning on picking something for my new sister-in-law stamped with their wedding date. Silver Love Letters makes beautiful customized jewelry for a price even a girl on a budget can manage. If you are spluring on yourself check out the bowl ring it’s incredible!

Do you like Halle’s new hair?

61770_hb_celebutopia_isa_01_122_980lo.jpg

The best way to beat the summer heat? Take a cue from Halle Berry and chop off your hair! The sexy star, who had already recently trimmed and lightened her hair, kicked off the summer season by showing off a new pixie do over the weekend, which was similar to the shorter hair that used to be her signature style. And while we loved Halle’s longer locks, we have to say that it takes one hot mama to pull off such a short and sleek style!

Here is Halle at Spike TV’s Guy Choice Awards!
