that box over to your right – yah, right there. POLYVORE.

April 11, 2011

ok, i have no idea what polyvore is but they sent me and email asking me to install this widget and telling me i'd make $5 off of everyone that registers for some contest. or something.

sounds good to me. have you seen how much organic baby food costs these days?

anyway, i started playing around, dragging pictures around, having no idea what on earth i'm doing or why for that matter so if you see a hideous collage of sebastian hair products and a red shirt, just know i was just dragging objects for fun.

anyway, i'm sure there IS something really cool to be found there and $1000 to win, so check it out if you have a few minutes. or, if you're stoned or something.  looks like stoner fun.  not that i would know.

ah! here it is:

Invite your readers to create a rock star look for Maja with at least Sebastian Color Ignite product in the set.  Readers must create a complete look.

Ok, so do that then. 🙂

SANTA MARIA NOVELLA

This original ancient apothecary was started by the Dominican monks in 1210 to dispense their healing and soothing remedies and lotions to the nobles and royalty across Europe, opened its doors to the public in 1612.

Since then Santa Maria Novella has become world renowned for its quality body and face care, perfumes (creating the original “Water of the Queen” for Catherine de Medici, later popularized under the name “Eau de Cologne”) and legendary products for the home (Including SMN Potpourri).  

Santa Maria Novella is privately owned and all products are still meticulously hand made (the original onsite distillation and manufacturing rooms have been converted into a museum) according to recipes that are centuries old.

All ingredients are local and organic and all products (including distillation of fragrances) are made onsite in the Florence workrooms as much as possible.

….BE TRANSPORTED.
