Love, Chic Baby

At first, when I heard of a perfume for babies, I was a little perplexed. Babies, including my new cousin Alexander Morris, smell yummy, so why would anyone use perfume?

But this one is different.

'Love, Chic Baby' is not just for babies. It's also for their mommies. The idea is to help foster a bond between mom and baby using a clean, fresh, very light scent. You can see why celebrities like Marcia Cross, Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow would spritz 'Love, Chic Baby.'

I don't have kids (yet) but I would still wear Love, chic baby anyway. It is available in 'baby girl' and 'baby boy' varieties. It's recommended for babies six months and older. But it's perfect for adults of all ages. It's also great for preteens. Makes a nice gift too.

Paul and Joe

My first Paul and Joe lipstick arrived in a gift bag this weekend. I was very excited to try it out. It did not disappoint. I tried the lipstick in a sheer pink shade. If you are familiar with Essie nail polish shades, it's like the Mademoiselle of lipstick. But the lipstick is available in many shades. I like it for its creamy texture. It is moisturizing but does not feel heavy on the lip. Paul & Joe lipsticks contain camomile, marigold and white lily extracts, plus sunflower and grape seed oils.

This lipstick is available at Bergdorf Goodman (800-558-1855)
$20

Paul and Joe products are made in Japan.

Juara's best body balm

Here's the 411 on Juara. A few years ago a friend gave me a few small pots of Juara product. It's hard to believe, but I was unfamiliar with this line. I just didn't know it. Anyway, this hand and body balm not only smells amazing, it also works very, very well. Sometimes products work well, but they don't smell good. But Juara has mastered the art of creating excellent product with a fabulous scent. You should also consider trying their body scrub.
You can buy Juara on the web: dermstore.

Carol's Daughters Candy Paints


Now here's a brainy idea. What if a cosmetic line came out with a lip gloss that soothes dry lips and gave off the right amount of sheen? What if the red-colored gloss provided a sexy glow without making you look like you belong on the pole with Diablo Cody? Seriously. These glosses impressed me. They left my lips supple. That's probably because the gloss is enriched with aloe vera, shea butter, castor and grapeseed oils.
Buy the whole Candy Paint collection at Carolsdaughter or at Sephora.
