Product Spotlight
Bamboo & Black Sesame Body Rub

While you're in the midst of your Spring Cleaning, don't forget that your body needs a bit of polish, too. Bella Luccè's new Bamboo & Black Sesame Body Rub is a deliciously creamy scrub created with 70% organic ingredients, including bamboo powder, sesame and rice bran oils and organic shea butter. It sloughs dead cells as it nourishes dry skin to reveal your best "ready for Spring" glow!

Latest Obsession
Neck Ties For Dogs

This is my little friend Emerson. I decided that if I have to step out in a business suit and stilettos at the office, the least he could do was throw on a tie. And so it goes... I had never before realized they made these, but who can argue with the dapper-ness of easy-on-and-off velcro ties? We've chosen to go with the classic tie set from Modern Tails Boutique and Mr. Emerson frequently garners compliments at the office....not to mention that he's driving the neighborhood senoritas crazy.

Ingredient of the Month
Crushed Freshwater Pearls

Celebrated by Asian women and ancient Chinese pharmacopeia for more than 3,000 years, pearl powder has a rich history and a myriad of legendary tales about its use at the Imperial Palace. Created by pulverizing real freshwater pearls, it is reputed to boost skins brightness and is rich in both amino acids and trace minerals.

5 Penny Lip Scrub

Dry, chapped lips are an unfortunate reality of winter. Thankfully, outrageously priced lip scrubs don't have to be. You can recreate a simple version of those department store concoctions at home- for a fraction of the price. For less than a nickel per application, you can use this handy little tip to help loosen and gently remove dead skin for a Pitt-worthy pucker.

Take a pinch of brown sugar and gently rub onto moistened lips (don't attempt this dry or you'll risk raw, overly exfoliated lips). Rinse with warm water and immediately apply chapstick. I do this routine several times per week throughout autumn and winter and it yields beautiful results in seconds!

Drumroll, please...
