A Wrinkle-Free Alternative

For some time Botox has been the only injectable option for those in want of some tightening and smoothing. Therefore it was only a matter of time until another de-wrinkle option made its way to the U.S. And of course, it’s from France

Reloxin, a type A wrinkle treatment, has just been approved for UK sale this week. Pending FDA approval it will be available to U.S. consumers later this year. For years it’s been sold in France as a muscle relaxer for spasms under the name Dysport. Might we be seeing Reloxin treatments in spas and doctors’ offices this time next year?

Luxe Skincare To Go

One of the few downsides of traveling is keeping up with your beauty regimen. No one wants to be that girl who has a separate suitcase for makeup and skin products. We’ve got the compromise. Skin expert Ingrid Millet Paris is giving away 50 Travel Size Kits complete with Caviaressence Cream and Serum.

Though tiny, the Caviaressence leaves a botox-like effect, leaving the skin taut, radiant and supple as a baby’s you-know-what. One travel kit is valued at $135 but you can snag yours for free by registering on Spa Week.

Must-Have Towelettes

Any busy girl knows that sometimes it’s tough to take a pause to freshen up. I’m always on the look-out for earth-friendly, delicious smelling products that I can throw in my purse and take on the go.

That’s why I’m in love with Herban Essentials Essential Oil Towelettes. The essential oils are 100% pure, extracted from plants, flowers, bark, grasses, fruits, or seeds. The individually-wrapped towelettes come in a variety of yummy-smelling scents including eucalyptus, peppermint, lavender (my favorite!) and lemon. Best of all the Santa Barbara based company is committed to using organic, wild-grown oils from American farmers and they never test on animals. Cheers to that!

Salma Hayek Wants to Make You Beautiful

Salma Hayek is one of the most stunning (and surprisingly funny — have you caught her on 30 Rock?!) actresses in Hollywood, but does that mean she should be selling beauty products? Style’s Beauty Counter Blog weighs in on Salma’s newest skincare line venture.

Inspired by her grandmother who was a cosmetologist (Salma’s even named it after her — Maria Luisa) Salma’s line will be “antiaging products at an affordable price.” Bottom line: whatever makes Salma look like THAT, I want it.
