green beauty: Jurlique Love Balm

if your skin needs some extra loving care, you need to try Jurlique's Love Balm. as with all of the brand's products, this is a natural product, sure to win over the "green" beauty in you.

scented with tangerine oil (love that!), Love Balm is a salve that works on everything from your lips to your toes. vitamin E, olive and safflower oils give skin the replenishment it needs to be healthy and protected.

although this is a versitile balm that works great anytime of year, the winter is coming (not soon enough, LOL!), and that sometimes means brutal cold that can lead to chapped skin. applying this before battling the harsh, chilly elements will definitely help save your skin from damage that can be caused by it.

here are some ways you can use this Love Balm:

**on your lips to moisturize, condition, protect and soften

**on elbows-- massage into rough areas

**on your cuticles–- keep nails looking great by rubbing on daily to hydrate dry cuticles

**on hands for an all over "invisible" protective glove

**on your legs to instantly hydrate skin and give a lovely sheen when wearing your favorite dress

**on your nose to soothe chapped areas during the flu, a cold, or exposure to the elements

**on your feet-– apply to heels to help soften dry, toughened skin

**breathe in to uplift-- whenever you need a pick up, inhale the tangerine scent for an instant boost!

Introducing NARS Makeup Cleansing Oil

if you didn't already know, great skin is achieved when your skin is clean, like a fresh canvas, entirely free of any makeup residue. NARS has created Makeup cleansing Oil, a new technically advanced formula, to be the first and most important step in the cleansing process.

this weightless, silky solution eliminates makeup traces and flushes out pores, prepping the skin for cleansing. excess oil coating the skin surface is washed away, and clarity is visibly improved. NARS' formula is unlike most facial oils, in that it can be applied with wet or dry hands, and rinses off effortlessly with absolutely no residue. it is both gentle and effective enough for use on the eyes and lips.

NARS Makeup Cleansing Oil will be available in september 2009 on narscosmetics.com
