  • My P.O.V.The reason I love this product is because it accomplishes what energy beverages like Red Bull and Monster do BUT with no calories, caffeine or guilt. It’s the same means to an end BUT approaching it naturally and safely!

Aroma Sense Shower Heads ($54.99 to $74.99) www.aromasenseusa.com Aroma Sense is the provider of the first of its kind aroma scented Vitamin C shower head. Aroma Sense shower heads also reduce water consumption by about 25% while optimizing water pressure 1.5 times more than branded shower heads. The natural essential oil inside the vitamin filter releases an aromatherapy effect that enhances relaxation & alleviates stress. Truly, this is what a luxurious shower should feel like!

  • My P.O.V. So impressed with this brand because they really thought the shower heads through. The Vitamin C smells lovely coming through the shower head. It’s creates a soothing shower environment almost immediately. Plus, I’m digging that it conserves water BUT at the same time increases water pressure…so our shower feels more massage inspired. Ends up a win/win. Thus when your water bill arrives and is lower than you last remember it you can thank Aromasense for the new shoes or dinner out.
Head Kenzan Japanese Massager
$44
Head Kenzan is a delightful scalp massager with a unique Japanese twist. The brush structure is inspired by “kenzan,” a traditional tool used in Japanese flower arranging to hold the flowers in place.With 92 bristles that hit upon that perfect balance of not-too-hard and not-too-soft, the flexible Head Kenzan molds itself to your head. Simply use the handles on either side to run the brush back and forth, massaging and energizing your scalp.
  • My P.O.V. This massage gadget felt yummy on my scalp, wow! I’m also trying to figure out how to work this into this year’s Halloween costume because it’s just so kitschy.
Chocolate
Why It’s De-stressing: Contains phenylethylamine, a chemical our brain manufactures when we are happy or in love. Chocolate scents are used to create products that stimulate the senses and soften the skin – without increasing waist size!

Lush Cupcake fresh face mask, ($6.95): If you suffer from oily or spotty skin, slather it in this cocoa concoction. With spearmint oil to cool, vanilla absolute to calm redness and Rhassoul mud to deeply cleanse, Cupcake is a sweet savior for faces. Smothering yourself in chocolate for clearer skin? Every girl’s dream.
Lush Charity Pot hand and body lotion, ($22.95): Filled with the finest ingredients, including Fair Trade organic cocoa butter, and made by hand with love. Not to mention the gorgeous fresh, ylang floral and chocolate fragrance. Also, every penny of the purchase price, excluding the tax, goes to fund and support grassroots charities all around the world.
Lush Soft Coeur massage bar, ($8.95): Soft Coeur got its name from the delectable union of honey and chocolate in a soft center. You can break the heart in half to reveal the messy chocolate middle and melt it all over your favorite body to make him or her extra tasty.
  • My P.O.V. If you haven’t yet shopped at a Lush Boutique you’re missing out. Just the experience of walking in the front door will relax you, the aroma is divine. From an esthetician’s perspective, I’m a big fan of the cupcake fresh face mask because it does a great job of helping control surface facial oil. From a social consciousness standpoint, the Charity Pot Lotions are MUST BUYS! They smell yummy, and with every penny of the purchase headed to a different charities your heart will take flight knowing you did a good thing!

Think outside the box here…you don’t have to be preggers to lose yourself in this pillow, get a little TLC and block out your stress.!
  • My P.O.V. I had to laugh when my light bulb switched on and I thought “Why not for men and women who aren’t pregnant, but desire a really encapsulating way to rest and recharge nightly. You don’t have to thank me for this translation…just send Target gift cards my way (wink).Bo
$99

The vigorous, rhythmic percussion massager deeply penetrates aching muscles, easing tightness and helping you feel relaxed all over.
  • My P.O.V. In the world of home massaging devices, I researched my fair share, but this one stood out from the pack because it has technology at the touch of a button on it’s side. I’ll call the I Need Neck & Shoulder Pro Massage with Heat…the Cliff Notes version of Massage 101!
