Korres



Korres has opened a new store on Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights.


I'm on my way there now to check it out. Will report back later today. Stay tuned. Don't forget your umbrella today and your Frizz Ease Hair Serum or whatever else you use during humid times.

Update: The store is lovely. Pictures to follow. Quick feedback on the new place -- if you love natural plant and food based ingredients, you will love, love Korres. I already have a favorite product. Their orange water face spray. More on that later.

Here is a list of just some of the ingredients the company uses:

Cinnamon
Juniper
Fig
Thyme
Olive
Orange
Wild Rose

Bliss University -- Anything Less Would be Stress


Good Morning.

I'm here at bliss HQ at 75 Varick Street for a beauty blogger event.

I'm drinking a little Tazo Earl Grey tea and looking at a lot of blue stuff.

Bliss is the stuff where beauty is made.

You might know bliss from their world-class spas on 57th street, Soho and in midtown. (They also have spas all over the globe.)

Fast facts for bliss junkies:
--The company started in '93 Soho in a 4-room spa in Soho. It was originally called "Let's Face It."
--Bliss' signature scent: Eucalyptus
--Bliss treat of choice? Brownies.
--The floors in the spas are rubberized so sound is absorbed.
Mother's Day
If you are still looking for a gift for mom why not try out bliss' Youth As We Know it travel kit:
It comes with cleanser, Toner, concentrate, eye cream and face cream.
Switching Gears ...
We just looked at a kit for bikini work at home. Yep. That kind of bikini work. Shaving, tweezing.
More on that later.
I don't think it would be appropriate for me to demonstrate that here.
Sneak Peak ...
Ooh!!! A new **favorite** product for me to tell you about:
Problem Salved.
A multi-use stick for travel and everyday use.
Helps reduce mosquito inflammation and redness
Preventing blisters
Runners' chafing
Random everyday injuries
But girls you will have to wait for this so-called "Purse Hero." It doesn't come out until September.

Mother's Day



Not sure what to get mom for Mother's Day?



Skip the roses and pick up something from Kiehl's new Gardenia collection. Why not help her relax with a candle ? ($28.00)




Or, if mom isn't into all things floral, you may want to get her the gift that keeps on giving.

How about a gift certificate for a makeup consultation? Try 3 Custom Color for an expert lesson.
