Gifts of Beauty, Accessories & For The Home

Art Home Linen Water  (Fruits & Passion) $16.00
The packaging on this product is so pretty that our tester almost didn't want to open it.  The only thing that made it worthwhile was the yummy scent it emitted every time she ironed one grandpa's shirtsleeves.  She said it made her entire laundry room smell like a garden and made the chore of ironing not only enjoyable, but pass quickly.  She doesn't dread ironing day anymore!  

 

Princess Slippers (Bonjour Fleurette) $38.00 for Adult / $28.00 for Child
How fun are these poofy pink princess slippers! Wearing them made our tester feel like a princess. Our tester said it was nice to finally find some slippers that are not only comfortable but very fun to look at as well. Her only regret was that she didn't have a pedicure to complete the look! She is definitely buying an extra pair of these to keep in the guest room for when grandma comes to spend the night.  She also loved the fact that she got a matching pair for her 6-year-old daughter who has been wearing them non-stop!  Are real pampering prize!

Von Natur Winter Cherry Lip Stain
Our product tester liked this lip balm not only for the light coverage it gave HER, but for the cinnamon scent. It is a warm red tone which goes on like a lip balm but feels like a gloss. It lasts a long time and the cinnamon scent is kind of like Dentyne gum: refreshing. It's a perfect size for carrying in your pocket and easy to apply when you need to add just a little bit of color to your lips for those un-expected run-ins with other moms.  Another great perk about this product, it's 100% Bees-Wax Free, 70% Organic and certified Vegan!

Gui / Mistletoe Cream Hand Soap (Fruits & Passion) $8.00
Boy do we love this soap.  First it's packaged beautifully.  It's a little green glistening ball filled with a creamy, deliciously scented soap.  Honestly it makes you want to wash all over with it - not just your hands.  This is a great gift for any mom.  It also would make a great hostess gift since it's so pretty!  It's a real treat!


Sinus Help Inhalation Beads Aromafloria $6.00
What can be better this time of year then having something natural that clears your sinuses?  Everyone is always pushing this drug or that, but this is a really natural way to use an aromatherapy aid that helps to clear stuffiness and congestion without drugs.  It uses the powerful aromas of eucalyptus, peppermint and lemongrass. It's totally discreet and convenient perfect for home, the office, during your commute or whenever!  Our mom-testers all agreed that this stuff is great!

Pomegranate AromaBeads (Aromafloria) According to our reviewer, a mother of two, she thought these aroma beads smelled amazing!  With Pomegranate being the hot new product this year, she loved the fact that she could imbue her home with this sumptuous, tart scent!  She also loved the seasonal color and beautiful little sparkling fruit like drops.  She thought this was a great, safe alternative to burning candles.  $20.00
 

Green Tea Bamboo Aromatic Soy Candle (Aromafloria) $26.00
As a lover of all things Green Tea, I just couldn't let this one go out of my house. I love the crisp clean scent of the green tea extract and the smell that lingers long after it's been blown out.  It comes in a beautiful glass jar that seemingly lasts forever. It's a great treat for me, or any hostess if you're willing to share!
 

Blush "Dawn" (Von Natur) $16.00
According to our 20 plus reviewer, she loved the "light pinkish tint that shimmers with just a tint of shine. It really brings some color to ones face. Dawn blush gives one a natural more beautiful look leaving one glowing."  She did comment that if you have darker skin, you'll want to consider some of the other great colors that she and her friends got to review, like Moroccan Moon.  The nicest thing about these products is that
ingredients are good for your skin and include antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients. Because there are no chemical dyes, blush colors can be applied to the eyes and lips.
 

Frothing Threesome (Cake Beauty) $22.50
Here's a great gift for a lady in your life, the Frothing Threesome is a sumptuous, limited edition tin filled with three of the best scents by Cake!  It includes: "It's a Slice"
It’s a Slice – an orange creamsicle scent, "Desserted Island" – a whipped vanilla icing & a pinch of coconut cream scent and Creme de la Creme – a butterscotch ripple ice cream scent.  All three will have your senses boiling over as you enjoy your bath or shower! Our college tester commented that they were "sweet, silky, sudsy and smooth.  I enjoyed every moment trying them out!  My friends liked using them in the college dorm shower too!  These are a great gift for the college granddaughter - or mom as well!"

 

Pregnancy Pops, Stretch Mark Cream, Nipple Cream and More! (Bathtopia
Bathtopia is a unique online store that pulls together some of the best products and puts them in delightful gift boxes.  If you have an expectant daughter or daughter-in-law she'll definitely appreciate one of these gift boxes.  The boxes for the expectant mom range in price from $25-55 and contain a variety of products from Pregnancy Pops which help to ease the queasiness, stretch mark cream, journals and more!  I was thrilled to receive a box of goodies to help me though this pregnancy!

Candle Impressions Flameless Candles  $12.99 - $29.99
Maybe you've seen these on TV, and maybe you were skeptical, but I can tell you from experience that these are a really cool product!  As a mother of three I dread power failures and we recently had one.  I always light candles during them, and I'm always worried about my kids around them - especially my son who likes to blow them out.  During our recent outage it was great to hand my son this candle so that he could walk around the house and light his way.  Ever since the power failure they have stayed on our mantel and we can enjoy the safe flickering of candlelight.  They even smell good! If you're looking for a great hostess gift - this is sure to please! They are available in a variety of colors and including a manual on/off switch, the 4-inch, 5-inch and 6-inch high candles require two C-cell alkaline batteries (sold separately), which will provide up to 350 hours of candlelight effect.

iGels (DuWop
All us Moms seem to have perpetual bags under our eyes, well DuWop has figured out a way for us to soothe them without feeling like a human salad!  The iGels are cool when you put them on and smell wonderful.  Our tired Mom testers all love this product - they just wish they had more time to enjoy them!  The one thing they all thought was great is that you can reuse them up to 8 times!  There are 3 in a packet and cost $20.00.
