SKIN’S BEEN SLUGGISH THIS WINTER, HOW DO I GIVE IT BACK A GLOW?
BRAND: Arbonne RE9 Advanced Intensive Renewal Serum
PRICE: $58
SHOP: www.arbonne.com
WHY SHOULD WILL THIS AMP UP YOUR COMPLEXION:
Arbonne’s Intensive Renewal Serum delivers concentrated antioxidants, botanicals and peptides that work together to protect the skin’s surface from future signs of aging. It’s advanced formula increases moisture retention and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while giving skin a more lifted, firm, youthful appearance. Like all arbonne products, it is allergy- and dermatologist-tested. Apply evenly over the entire face and neck in the morning and in the evening. Use the entire RE9 Advanced collection to achieve the most significant results. When you’ve been using the same skincare for years, you get what I laughing, but in all seriousness, refer to as “pooped out products” that aren’t responding to your aging as effectively as they did in the past. Arbonne’s new serum is an easy and fast why to energize your complexion without breaking the bank. This explains why bottle is almost empty.

My Arbonne Face Serum has been my go-to for my dry skin, made even drier by this cold winter weather. It’s brightened, evened out and firmed up my complexion.

NO TIME NOR BUDGET TO GET TO THE DENTAL HYGIENIST FOR A TEETH CLEANING?
BRAND: PlaqueHD

SHOP: www.plaquehd.com
WHY THIS IS THE HOT NEW TOOL FOR YOUR SMILE: How do you know if you’re getting your teeth truly clean. Your dentist will warn you about plaque BUT how do you know if you can’t really see it? PlaqueHD to the rescue! How cool is this? It’s an anti-cavity fighting toothpaste with Targetol Technology. Targetol contains disclosing agents to color and identify plaque built up on teeth. This allows us to zone in on any areas of plaque build-up that we may miss during a normal brushing. So it helps us to completely remove plaque from teeth and take our smile to new levels in this new year.

PlaqueHD just launched and boy is it unique and effective. If you can’t see the plaque build up on your teeth… how do you know where to target to remove it? Problem solved and so easy to use!

WHY THIS IS MOTHER OF ALL BEAUTY INVENTIONS?
Is it a going out, cute clutch or makeup bag? Well truth is, it’s both. Makeup Artist Nikki Hynek was tired of fishing through her bottomless makeup bag to find what she needed to doll up daily.
