Olivina’s Honeysuckle Rose
I have never taken to a hand cream/moisturizer as fast as the new Honeysuckle Rose Hand Creme by Olivina Napa Valley. Olivina uses a blend of hand-pressed olive and grapeseed oils in its products, along with other essential oils to create a highly moisturizing blend of ingredients. Plus, all of the products are free from chemical parabens, preservatives, sodium lauryl-sulfate and cruelty free.
I was first taken by the scent. Not normally a fan of rose-centric fragrances, I make an exception for this light and positively addicting scent. But what I loved about the Honeysuckle Rose Hand Creme was the incredibly lightweight formula (without it being too liquid like a lotion). It also was highly hydrating and absorbed into the skin within a minute or two after application. Plus, the scent lingers softly if you’re just looking for just a light scent to perk up your skin (and senses). The hand creme is only $18 for 2.5 oz at olivinanapavalley.com. I personally can’t wait to try out other products from this line!

Intimately Betsey
Each few months, we urge you to take a look at your intimates drawer and refresh your collection if needed. (That means any pieces that are too small, too big, or generally tired-looking!) This season, I turned to intimates resource, FreshPair.com, and discovered Betsey Johnson Intimates for the first time. While I knew that Betsey Johnson had entered the intimates world, I hadn’t tried the styles out until now, and I’m so glad that I did. (more…)
