Confession: This is my beauty dresser.
Sure, I’ve told you that part of my job means being inundated with cremes, serums, toners, makeup, oxygen in gel form, etc… but I never did claim to keep them neat! Admittedly, from time to time, things get out of control and it looks as though Allure Magazine has exploded on my dresser.
However, that is not the point of this blog post. The point is, you’ll notice a beaming ray of organized yellow sunshine on the bottom left hand corner, otherwise known as the Elizabeth Grant Vitamin C Hydra-Moist line. It’s the set of products that has emerged from the depths of my dresser top to the highly coveted forefront, and with good reason. I’ve been using this product line every day lately, and my been skin’s la-la-loving me for it! THE CLOSE UP:
It came in this sweet faux-pony hair pouch that I use ALL the time now:
And here’s what it looks like as as a basic set, in excellent lighting (get the whole thing for $59):
My morning and evening routine as of late has included a number of these products: The Hydrating Cleanser, the Concentrated Serum, the All Day Cream, the Eye Radiance, the Illuminating Eye Pads, a few others here and there… and my skin has been obeying, radiating and illuminating like the tubes say. It’s the kind of vibrancy that makes me feel comfortable going without makeup. The products absorb quickly, contain just the right amount of fragrance, and are also quite convenient for traveling. They’ve helped smooth my skin, minimize the appearance of blemishes, and all in all, make me look much like that ray of happy brightness amidst my scary-looking dresser top.
In the yellow spirit… here’s my EG Vitamin C-doused self on the subway:
And rocking the eye pads before a wedding (nevermind the teeth whitening tray and collagen lip plumping strip…):
Just like Vitamin C in a tall glass of OJ helps cure colds and stave off illness, it also has a similar effect when it comes to repairing and preventing skin damage. How does C do it all! Here, Elizabeth Grant’s Beauty Director and VP of Global Direction, Margot Grant Witz, shares:
6 Skin-Enhancing Benefits of Vitamin C:
1. Clears up hyperpigmentation, brightening and lightening your skin.
2. Reverses the effects of sun exposure and sun damages.
3. Blocks pollution, free radicals and other environmental gunk floating around.
4. Most women by age 25 have accumulated enough sun damage to create freckles and dark spots that can easily be reduced with Vitamin C treatments.
5. Even if you’re a religious sunscreen addict, you may suffer from uneven skin tone that can be evened out with Vitamin C treatments.
6. Re-energizes tired, ruddy, problem skin back to life.
Browse through Elizabeth Grant’s Vitamin C products and treat yourself to a helping of the stuff!
And just in case you’d never take a recommendation from someone whose counter top looks like the above, I JUST moved… check out the new home for my stash in the bathroom! So neat, so clean, so logical! Yes, I do feel slightly more civilized now.
P.S. If you’re wondering where my EG products went – that’d be my bedroom. ;)
This strapless cotton taffeta dress was recently featured on the ABC comedy “Happy Endings.” She wore it to an event rather than a wedding!
An A-line dress is flattering on all body shapes. Plus, how amazing is this Bright Dahlia color?
This silk charmeuse dress comes in classic colors that you are sure to get many wears out of.
Does anything sound more luxurious to wear than silk chiffon? I think not. It’s available in a lot of fun, bright colors to party the night away.
I’d be ecstatic if a bride asked me to wear this! I’m a sucker for anything sequin and definitely would wear this beauty more than once.
Please give a warm Spa Week welcome to the newest member of our team: Heather Abbott! Heather will serve as our Vice President Gift Card Marketing. So what does the VP of Gift Card Marketing do? She oversees all the sales channels of 
Ayurveda spas practice holistic therapy rooted in ancient medicine originating in India. Kim resisted the treatment luckily because back at the hotel Kourtney leaked all over the bed! 
And the craziness didn’t stop there – the sisters decided to try a nude yoga session with some friends. Oh my! We’re all for getting naked at the spa (see video below) but this is a whole other beast. Nude yoga has stirred up some controversy even though celebs like Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry and Gwyneth Paltrow have confessed to going bare. Supposedly doing the downward dog position in the buff will help you lose those inhibitions, but there are some skeptics. Like Kris Humphries.
