Once winter even starts showing its ugly face, our hands start getting rough and chapped. Even when it’s 60 degrees outside, you’ll find us wearing gloves and slathering hand cream on multiple times a day. But with the introduction of Weleda Sea Buckthorn Hand Cream into our regimen, our hands have completely changed course.For starters, we absolutely love the scent. It’s subtly zesty and citrusy, and at the same time isn’t too overpowering so we can still wear perfume. This is due to the combination of orange, mandarin and grapefruit essential oils.
The fact that the cream is formulated with sun-soaked Biodynamic sea buckthorn oil just makes it so rich and lush. Essential fatty acids moisturize, while pro-vitamin A and Vitamin E soften and strengthen the skin. With the addition of organic sesame seed oil, your hands will be super hydrated in no time at all.
And here’s the best part. Throughout the holiday season, you can get the cream and a free pair of moisturizing gloves! Just slick on the cream, then put on the gloves, and sit in your house for an hour or two (perfect while watching a movie). When you remove them, you’ll be amazed at how soft and smooth your skin has become!
Weleda Sea Buckthorn Hand Cream retails for $11 at weleda.com.

Gold Bond is one of those brands that has been around forever, you probably even have one of their products in your medicine cabinet. Though their products undoubtedly work well, they don’t exactly have a glamorous image — until now, that is. The new Gold Bond Ultimate Sheer Ribbons body lotions are decidedly more high-end, luxurious, and shall we say, feminine.
Available in two formulas, these premium lotions are not your everyday lotions, they contain 7 hydrating moisturizers that replenish skin. The Natural Silk formula features natural silk proteins to enhance all-over smoothness and the Pearl Radiance formula contains natural pearl extracts that subtly reflect light. Both are lightly fragranced and come in a unique bottle that dispenses ribbons of lotion with the touch of the button, so there’s no mess.
I gave both formulas a try and was really impressed by how silky they left my skin, without a hint of greasiness that many moisturizers can leave. They work on even the dryest patches of skin and have a really nice scent that isn’t at all overpowering. I love the unique dispenser and the generous size of the bottle.
There wasn’t any discernible difference between the two formulas with respect to how well they moisturize skin, but if I had to choose one, I would select the Pearl Radiance formula for its subtle sheen and slightly more preferable fragrance.
Gold Bond Ultimate Sheer Ribbons body lotions are definitely worth a try, and at under $9 each, they’re incredibly affordable. Even better, you can download a $1 off coupon from their website. Check out goldbondultimate.com for more information on these and other Gold Bond Ultimate products.
And even more exciting? We’re giving away a year’s supply of both formulas to one lucky winner! To enter, “Like” us on Facebook and leave a comment on our Facebook wall, “I want to try Gold Bond Ultimate Sheer Ribbons Body!” (U.S. residents only please.)
A beautiful and expecting Jennifer Garner attended an AFI premiere of her new movie ‘Butter’ this past week. But it wasn’t her drapey dress, strappy sandals, or barely there makeup that caught my eye — it was her nail polish. With her hand perfectly poised on her hip I saw flashes of gun metal grey with a bit of sparkle and became entranced. I don’t know exactly which products she used to achieve this great color, but my nail color know-how tells me that this can certainly be copied at home. First you’ll need a great grey base polish, try OPI’s French Quarter for Your Thoughts or my personal fave, Essie’s Chinchilly. Next you need a sparkly top coat with a silver sheen to it, SEPHORA by OPI Flurry Up Top Coat or Sally Hansen’s Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear in In the Spotlight will work nicely. Start with a good coat or two of the grey base and then apply the sparkle. Try this trick with any of your fave fall colors and watch them sparkle on through the holiday season!
