Holiday Stocking Stuffers from Mama Mio Skincare and Lavanila Laboratories

November 15, 2010

Not to early to think about stocking stuffers, folks.  If you're like me and traveling with kids in tow over the holidays and have to haul some cute (space saving) gifties (to Canada!!) then I've gotta few cute ideas for you.

I've recently gotten REALLY into the Mama Mio line again when Lynn Banfi of Per Amore (THE Cellulite Expert!) told me it's her favorite brand and she literally SEES the results of their body slimming and toning line day in and day out. After all, all she does is look at fat all day so if anyone can really test a product's effectiveness, it's Lynn. 

 So why not give the gift of a slimmer bod to your bessie, sis, mom, bro, or mom in law (ok, that might be tricky).

From Mama Mio:

Mama Mio Get Waisted Body Shaper Snowflake ($10; mamamio.com)
Perfect for party girls, Get Waisted is the ultimate antidote to eggnog, candy canes and other holiday indulgences. With nine ingredients proven to combat fat deposits, this holy grail of slimming potions tightens the tummy and reduces post-holiday puffiness for a slimmer silhouette. The snowflake box features a cheeky quote that reads: “’Pour me another’ she said merrily…knowing the antidote to excess was in her bag.”
 
Mama Mio Boob Tube Bust & Neck Firmer Snowflake ($10; mamamio.com)
Ten dollars is a small price to pay for the instant gratification of a boob boost. The gravity-defying formula promotes firmer, fitter, glowing, dewy, youthful skin from the neck down. Fend off turtlenecks—and turkey necks—with this crinkle-fighting firmer. The snowflake box features a cheeky quote that reads: “As his hungry eyes fell to her gorgeous boson, she knew he was hers….”
 
Mama Mio Boob Tube with Magic Shimmer ($29.50; mamamio.com)
– a bust and décolletage firmer with the added benefit of micro-golden glimmering sheen that gives your cleavage an irresistible sparkle this holiday season.

Kiss those parched winter lips buh-bye with LIP ELIXIRS – the world’s most perfect stocking stuffer.

November 14, 2010

I'm a lip-balm obsessed freak.  I have been known to stop the car and turn around if I forgot my lip-luvin' stuff at home en route to say, a movie.  Seriously. I have to get my balm on, hourly.  It's a problem. (And yes, my hubby has called me coo coo for cocoa puff because of this).

So when a little birdy told me that my friend, the brilliant perfumer Randi Cohen had branched into lip elixirs, aptly called LIP ELIXIRS,  I knew I was going to be in lip balm heaven soon enough and getting my addiction on.  Big time.

And yup, that's where I am right now.  Surrounded by 5 heavenly little eco-friendly, recylecable tins of all natural, perfectly formulated (from kukui nut, aloe butter and cocoa butter, and pure essential oils) lip-elixirs that are gonna make me kiss my other stash buh-bye and want to kiss everyone a lot more, with perfectly moisturized lips.  Lip Elixirs sink into the skin, are absorbed by it and actually go to work to restoring the lips, rather than just sitting on top of the skin in a waxy coat of goop.

Since I can't decide which is my fave: Chocolate Martini, Mojito, Mimosa, Sassafras or Vanilla Bourbon I'll simply have to rotate them all.  For $6.50 each they are CHEAP and the perfect-o stocking stuffer.  They are totally dude-friendly and unisex so be sure to lube up your man's lips if he's been getting flaky on you.  His lips, that is.  

Soothe, protect and buy all of them HERE!

ShaToBu – Burn calories AND tone muscles while wearing the cutest tights ever? Sold!

November 12, 2010

I've been more than curious about these ShaToBu – the workout that you wear leggings.

They sounded way too good to be true.

Shape!  Tone!  Burn! 

They burn calories!  They tone your legs and butt and everything else! They make you look amazing!! 

Hmm…. I was just a little suspicious, to put it lightly…

I figured they at least must be ridiculously uncomfy and impossible to wear.  They look like they would be tight, binding and suffocating. 

That was until I ordered a pair (adorable dark steel grey footless ones).  As soon as I felt them I got excited.  But it wasn't until I put them on that I felt how truly soft and snug these opaque (thank god) beauties are.  But, most importantly they breaaatthheeee… They feel beyond fantastic going on and for someone who hates wearing leggings because I always feel sweaty and they make my skin crawl from lack of air, these felt airy and light.  I was in serious legging shock.  I am in love.  I am immediately ordering a few more in different colors.

Now, here's the thing, I have no idea how on earth to quantify an exercise effect or calorie burning.  That is beyond my scope.  All I know is that they feel like gods gift to leggings (ok, not sure what's up with all the GOD references, perhaps ShaToBu is making me have a religious experience – my god! – see, there I go again).

If you're in the market for the perfect winter tights-situation (footless, footies, to the knee slimmers, etc.) but don't want that sticky, cooch-can't get a breath-of fresh air feel – then these are the perfect thing for you.

Any calorie burning or muscle toning is just icing on the cake.  How's that for having your cake and eating it too?

They come in the Shaping Tight, the Footless Shaping Tight and the High Waist Shaping Tight.

These are the ones I got for $34.

Quench your thirst for all things beautiful while drinking your 8 glasses out of a WaterGeeks bottle

November 11, 2010

Everyone knows water is the first step to a svelte body and glowing skin, and that’s why I am obsessed with WaterGeeks. OBSESSED!!!  These BPA-free, self-filtering water bottles have a real conscience and a true sense of style.  My go-to gift this holiday season, the stainless WaterGeeks bottles ($24) are designed with a replaceable filter and can be filled up anywhere.  So say buh-bye to chlorine, lead and plastic and hello to fresh, clean water.  Not to mention a fresh, clean you!

Eight glasses a day never tasted so good.
