Locks Of Love!

HAIR TODAY, GONE TOMORROW.


It's been a stressful and eventful day! I finally grew my hair long enough to contribute to the Locks for Love organization. I have long wanted to do this but just couldn't wait long enough between hair cuts. So here is the proof and the results. What a great feeling to contribute finally!!
A special thank you to Geana at Mystique Edge for doing such a great job.

Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis. We meet a unique need for children by using donated hair to create the highest quality hair prosthetics. Most of the children helped by Locks of Love have lost their hair due to a medical condition called alopecia areata, which has no known cause or cure. The prostheses we provide help to restore their self-esteem and their confidence, enabling them to face the world and their peers.

Simplify your Daily Beauty Routine


There is a reason that men complain about how long their girlfriend/wife takes in the bathroom--because slathering on all of those potions, lotions, foundations, loose powders, highlighters, self-tanners, and shimmers take forever to apply!

Diane Ranger, founder of Colorescience mineral makeup reminds us: "It is said that 80 percent of aging is due to sun exposure, and if I can only have one product that I can't live without, let it be a product that is multi-purpose!"

Simplify your beauty routine by swapping out your stash of skincare for an all-in-one foundation, powder, highlighter, tanner, and sunscreen with mineral makeup. There is a reason that practically all of Hollywood swears by the pigmented, brush-on full-face coverage; it leaves skin looking flawless without the time-consuming fuss.

Mineral makeup is made from natural pigments and made without oils, talc, dyes, perfumes, preservatives or alcohols. It is actually considered "good for you makeup" because it doesn't clog pores and provides a natural SPF! Try Colorescience's Suncanny Foundation Brush -SPF 20 for instantly gorgeous skin.

Hangover Survival Kit Coming Soon!!

You had the best night ever, but you indulged a little too much and then you mutter those very famous words, "I'll never drink again." Reach for your Hangover Survival Kit and realize you may not die after all.

Our new Hangover Survival Kit will be ready mid-month! Due to our popular Wasabi Hangover Bath, we've created an entire kit including reuseable water bottle, eye gel mask, alka-seltzer, aspirin, and saltines. A fun gift and a much needed staple for any medicine cabinet.

Great for hangovers, or even jet lag, overeating, and cold/flu.

Time Saving Exercise & Diet Techniques


You don't have to make a whole production out of fitting fitness into your day. Cindy Whitmarsh, fitness expert from ExerciseTV has some time saving exercises that can easily be squeezed into your everyday activities, while still remaining effective! How?


1. Fit fitness into your day. Try standing on one leg anytime you are waiting in line for something! This will help your balance and core stability.


2. Travel with a cooler. Always have a cooler in your car packed with healthy snacks. This not only saves time; it helps avoid the fast food temptations!


3. Take 10! Try to fit in 10 minutes a day to focus on fitness. ExerciseTV has many 10-minute workouts you can do in the privacy of your own home that require no equipment at all! Everyone has ten minutes and at the end of the week you will feel the difference in not only your body but also your mood and mind!


4. Workout smarter! When working out try to pick multifunctional moves. For example, move from a squat into biceps curls followed by an overhead shoulder press and repeat. This will save time but also increase your caloric burn!


5. Incorporate core training into all moves. Try doing an entire workout sitting or laying on an exercise ball. Incorporating the ball forces your body to recruit its core muscles while performing any exercise. You will be working your abs and not even know it!

Closeout Clearance


We have several spa accessories on our Closeout/Clearance section. Items are marked 50-75% off normal prices and won't last long! We have new Cotton Waffle Robes and Microfiber Luxury Robes coming in so we are closing out the Cotton Waffle Blend Robes. We also have some misc. accessories overstocked, so we're not eliminating the products but are clearing out the overstock.

Mountain Lions? Oh, My!!

As temps reached 70degrees on Saturday, some members of Body Systems went for a group hike/geocaching search in the Black Hills to later find out that a mountain lion attack had occurred at the same location. After the initial shock, the group have decided to add some very essential supplies including mace and walking sticks to their backpacks. So just remember during your next outdoor activity, to be aware and prepared and stay safe.
