Product Reviews Product review: Hudson Jeans

• Triangle Pocket Stretch Boot Cut: I am usually not one to wear a thinner stretch material jean. However, in the case of Hudson, I made an exception. The wash is perfect, the stitching, even better. And guess what? The stretch provides movement without giving out after a few wears. As with most thin stretch denim, buy a size down from your normal jean size.

Product Reviews Product reviews: Andrea's Beau, The Hook-Up
Posted By Kimberly Lawson on Tue, Oct 6, 2009 at 10:15 AM
This week we're reviewing accessories from Andrea's Beau and The Hookup.
• Andrea’s Beau: Laurel Jacquard double adjustable soft headband
Some days we need a little inspiration. And doing something different, and stylish, is just what the doctor ordered. I love this headband. The double band makes it an instant enhancement! It adjusts easily (for those occasions when your daughter asks to borrow it). And speaking of … the little girls’ hair accessories will knock your socks off!
• The Hookup: Handbag hook
This accessory is a seriously convenient product. It clips to your handbag and makes it a breeze to keep your handbag off of any dirty surface. The fashionable heart, plated in gold or platinum, clips to your purse strap and twists open to hook your purse to any table or door (or chair, stroller, grocery cart, etc.). It’s fantastic!

Product Reviews Product reviews: Dr. Denese New York

Product Line: Dr. DENESE NEW YORK
Nice to meet you Dr. Denese! I have to say, I was blown away with these three products. Advancements in skin care were ever present, which leads me to believe all of Dr. Denese’s products must be awesome!
• Glow Younger Self Tanner: A Clear Self Tanner … with peptides? Yes. It feels like a serum going on, smooth and silky. The processing smell isn’t too bad at the end of the day, but it’s present. The color is realistic and gradual. As with all self tanners, be careful around your feet. For the first time, I used this self tanner on my face. It provided just a hint of color, which was perfect. The only drawback to it being clear is that you can’t see where you have applied the product — can be tricky if you are a newby to self tanners.
• SPF 30 Defense Day Cream: The Day Cream rocks. I love that the tinted moisturizer contains zinc oxide … makes me all giddy inside knowing that I am multi-tasking in one product. The formula is matte, so it’s excellent for summer. Oily skin folks, you can probably use this all year long. It was a bit drying for me, so I had to mix in a moisturizer.
• Firming Facial Light Resurfacing Peel: The Resurfacing Peel is amazing. Not only does it smell incredible (and I love the orange color), it provides lasting results. I have become a bit obsessed with this product … counting the days to the next application. It makes your skin super smooth, radiant and firm.
