Dermapril SP is an advanced formula wrinkle cream whose key ingredient is Matrixyl 3000, a promising peptide based cosmeceutical ingredient that is thought by some to be even more powerful than the original Matrixyl at combating fine lines, wrinkles, and general signs of aging. Dermapril SP also contains antioxidant and skin nourishing ingredients such as [...]

CARGO,
Makeup.
CARGO introduced Plantlove lipsticks in 2007. The collection broke new ground in cosmetics by featuring lipsticks housed in biodegradable lipstick tubes made from corn and packaged in boxes made with paper embedded with seeds that sprout into wildflowers when planted. Pretty cool, huh?
The smooth and creamy lipsticks are formulated with organics and botanicals and feature [...]
Okay, so today’s featured item is not technically a bath, body, or cosmetic one, but I was very saddened to hear that Domino, a fantastic interior design magazine, had folded. This economy has certainly done a number on the newspaper and magazine industries, and shelter magazines like Domino are just some of the latest whose [...]
The story of StriVectin is rather unique in the cosmetics world. Originally formulated as a cream to help diminish the appearance of stretch marks, StriVectin SD was given to test subjects as a generically marked “topical cream”. Many of the testers misunderstood how it was meant to be applied and starting using it on their [...]

Olay,
Skin Care.
I featured Olay’s Regenerist Microdermabrasion Kit recently, and I thought I’d give a mention to their newest line, Olay ProX (Professional).

NARS.
When you give your blush the name “Orgasm”, well, you’re bound to get attention. However, you’ll only keep that attention if your product lives up to its name. NARS blushes have a huge fanbase, filled with makeup lovers who can’t live without the superior quality, highly pigmented line. Orgasm, an almost universally flattering shade, has [...]
Glade appeals to the high end candle lover with the soy based candles and scent diffusers in their new line, called The Fragrance Collection. The upscale looking collection features sleek packaging, labels, and pastel dyed soy based candles and reed diffusers in naturally inspired scents. I haven’t tried any of the scents from the line [...]
Back in the days of old — you know, before the Bath and Body Works revolution — Navy by Dana was my favorite fragrance. While many of my other friends were dabbing on their Exclamation! and Love’s Baby Soft (I still have very fond memories of both of these scents, as well), I was rockin’ [...]

Olay,
Skin Care.
I had been wanting to try out a home microdermabrasion kit for a while when Olay’s Regenerist Microdermabrasion kit came out a few years ago. There weren’t too many kits out there at the time, and the ones that were had pricetags that were much too high for my budget at the time. I was [...]
SkinCeuticals was founded in 1994 and is known for its high end skin care lines. The company has formulated a number of skin care solutions for many of the skin problems that we deal with at some point in our lives, namely aging skin and acne prone skin.
Yes, SkinCeuticals products are pricey, but they are [...]
