Take Time for R&R

One of my favorite things to do is relax in a hot sudsy bath! My new favorite obsession is taking a bath with one of Lush's famous Bath Bombs! They are a simple ball, made of soap and soothing aromas that you just put into bath water and let it do it's magic.

They come in many varieties! Some make bubbles, some have glitter, some have sea salt, there are many to choose from! This rose bomb was full of fragrance and had me smelling delightful all day & night! They are so very relaxing and most all of them are under $5

Lush has a shop downtown in Water Tower Place but you can order online at Lush.com

You work hard, take time for some R&R :)

Nail Colors Fall 2011

It’s early…10am…Saturday morning…I’m still in my P.J’s and I’m barely awake. I stumble in the nail salon and the first thing I hear is a piercing voice shriek, “Pick a color!!!”
Now, my heart beats wild with the excitement of having to “Pick a color!!” But sometimes I feel hurried and flushed, so now, I like to come prepared with at least which color family I want!

And now the sleeves on my shirts continue to grow longer and the sun is setting a little bit earlier….and I was offered a pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks this morning….that means it’s almost FALL!! Time to say goodbye to the pretty pink, pastel and coral summer shades and hello to colors that makes me think of my mom’s apple pie, cozy sweaters and vampire blood.
Here are my picks for Fall 2011 :) Try one, try them all!


Classic with Red

Classic red polish is always in style, but for the start of nature’s hibernation, try OPI St. Petersburgundy. It’s a deeper, richer red, perfect for fall, but still holds that classic look.

Modern Purple

Plums aren’t just something sweet to eat! All shades of plum belong on fingertips everywhere while holding a cup of hot cider. Try Zoya’s line of purple shades. I love Caitlin, Demi, and Casey

Trendy Military Greens

Zombie’s won’t be the only one’s sporting green fingernails this fall! Be bold and try 2011’s hottest new trend, military green! Check out China Glaze’s “Color of the Month” for September, Westside Warrior.

Metallics

Chanel’s Black Pearl is the hot new girl in school. She’s who everyone is talking about! Get in on the gossip and give her a try ;)





Nudes/Naturals
There’s no shame in going nude! Essie’s Case Study is the perfect shade for the professional woman or no fuss gal.

Hopefully these selections will help you on your next trip to the salon! Happy choosing!
