L'Occitane: Tinted Lip Balm

So there I was, my last night in New York City, about to go out for a lovely dinner at a bistro in the village to celebrate my engagement. I've taken great pains to choose the right outfit, do my hair nicely, look completely the part of the "right choice" and on the subway ride there I realize that in my excitment I'd forgotten to apply blush.

I was wearing black, so there was no hope of getting any help from my clothes. Indeed I thought I was destined to look like I was revisiting my teenage goth days, but there was a saviour in my purse. My L'Occitane Tinted Lip Balm in Blackberry.

A couple of dabs on my cheeks and I had a nice little glow going on. Not only did it save the day, but it also makes for a really nice lip blam too.

L'Occitane: Lavender Harvest Hand Creme

It's winter time. While this winter has been milder than most, there's still a lot of dry heated air out there that can suck much needed moisture from your hands. We all know that dry hands can lead to a lot of discomfort and in extreme cases cracking and bleeding. And that's not fun.

Which is why it's smart to head out and get a small tube of moisturizer to carry around in your bag. While you're at it, get a nice hand cream with a soothing scent like lavender. It soothes and leaves you with a nice light scent. Moisturized hands and a scent that soothes you and those around you as you all work your way through the frazzling and depressing days of January.
