The G3 Salon Pro Hair Dryer ($159.95) is the latest addition to the Karmin Salon Professional Hair Dryer line. If the costly price tag doesn't cause immediate heart palpitations for you, I can assure you that this blow dryer doesn't come short of being amazing; my hair dries in 10 minutes! The outstanding power cuts my usual drying time in half, making hair drying less of a chore. This isn't the usual for me since my hair is somewhat thick, thus it usually takes 15-25 minutes to dry it. This used to be something I never looked forward to doing, especially if the blow dryer isn't exactly lightweight.

Not only my hair dries within minutes with this blow dryer, but it makes my hair softer and manageable after use without overly drying it and making me look like Bozo the Clown's doppelganger. This is because the ceramic produces negative ions that add shine, softness, and speedier drying. The ceramic also maintains an even temperature for healthier styling, locking in hair color, repelling humidity, and sealing the cuticles. The cool shot function ensures that my style perfectly stays in place. Worth every cent!

Includes:

• Professional Hair Dryer (1875 watts)
• Narrow Nozzle Attachment
• Diffuser Attachment
• Carrying Case
• 3 Year Warranty
• Instruction Manual

Ellovi Butter Review

It is becoming cooler and cooler as the temperature begins to drop. This is the season when our skin becomes dry and almost unmanageable, thus it's important to find a product that is emollient enough to keep Old Man Winter in his place.

Long gone goes the myth that non-oily products should only be used for oily skin, because I found a body butter that is ideal for all skin types, including oily skin! I was recently introduced to the Ellovi Handmade Body Butter ($26), which only consists of six ingredients that are luxuriously rich and soothing. Those ingredients are Macadamia Nut, non-GMO Organic Corn Starch, Marula Nut, Hemp Seed, Shea, and one of my favorites, Coconut! No fillers, synthetic chemicals, preservatives, or hidden ingredients - just six ingredients of pure, natural goodness! Plus, it doesn't have a zilch of water, making it highly concentrated and challenging for it to evaporate.

I was a little hesitant about using this body butter at first, because I've used some body butters that made my skin feel oily to the point of it being untouchable. This one is thick in appearance, yet refreshingly light once applied on the skin, soothing, and melts into the skin without leaving an icky, oily residue behind on the skin or clothes. The coconut is evident, but it's very, very subtle, and doesn't have an artificial smell. It naturally provides SPF 15 protection from the sun. My jar is close to being depleted, so that speaks volumes for this product!

"We believe it's only worth making a product if it's going to be the very best of its kind."

Naturally Lindy Skin Care Giveaway

When Lindy created Lindy’s Healing Facials over 25 years ago, her holistic approach to skin care was considered unusual—maybe even a bit “out there.” Today, it is apparent that Lindy was a pioneer in the philosophy, technique and practice of natural skin care.

Suffering from severe acne herself and getting no help from the “experts,” Lindy became a licensed aesthetician to figure out how to heal her own skin. She learned that issues like food allergies, hormones and life style, and even the thoughts you think, affect the health of your skin. To deepen her knowledge and skills, Lindy obtained certifications in nutrition, reflexology, and kinesiology (aka “muscle testing”), and she studied both the traditional lore and emerging scientific evidence about the healing properties of natural ingredients derived from the earth, such as minerals, seaweeds, clays, vitamins, oils and plants.

The combination of Lindy’s Healing Facials and Naturally Lindy skin care products have given Lindy a dedicated following of men, women, and teenagers, including A-list celebrities, Hollywood executives and producers. She is sought after by people with problem skin, as well as people who want glowing healthy skin at all stages of life. Actresses and models swear by Lindy and Naturally Lindy products, both for regular healthy skin maintenance and for emergency problems and flair-ups. Plastic surgeons use and recommend Naturally Lindy skin care products for pre-op and post-op skin care, and they report that surgery goes better and results are optimized. And Naturally Lindy products are so healing that cancer patients are using Naturally Lindy products to deal with treatment side effects such as severe acne, called " acne-form " rashes.

Prizes(s): Twelve winners will receive a jar of MSM Night Repair Cream (a $50 value) from Naturally Lindy Skin Care.

The giveaway will conclude on October 31st.

Tarte's Strike a Pose Limited-Edition Lash Set

Score bombshell lashes thanks to this dynamic eye duo! Tarte's Strike a Pose Limited-Edition Lash Set ($19 exclusively at Sephora) includes a deluxe lights, camera, flashes™ statement mascara and limited-edition gold picture perfect™ eye lash curler. Start by curling your lashes painlessly with the limited-edition gold picture perfect™ eyelash curler. Then sweep on the revolutionary lights, camera, flashes™ statement mascara, which delivers a jet-black finish while the custom-engineered, dual-molded brush takes lashes to the extreme with a 752% increase in lash volume instantly!

The deluxe lights, camera, flashes™ statement mascara packs a small, yet powerful punch by giving my somewhat sparse lashes the definition that they have been needing. All I need is a couple swipes and I'm usually good go, unless I want to define them even more in conjunction with the eyelash curler. I may have used an eyelash curler once or twice before, but the lack of results kept me from buying anymore. I'm usually apprehensive about something like this pinching when getting it up close and personal to my eyelids. The soft, comfortable pads that come with the curler makes it nearly impossible for something like this to occur, though!

Even though the packaging of the Tarte's Strike a Pose Limited-Edition Lash Set looks luxe, it comes at the budget-friendly price point of $19. Not only it's budget-friendly, but it's also perfect for travel as well!
