(Malin+Goetz) Detox Mask

M&G detoxThis deep cleansing mask uses innovative, oxygenating cleansing agents, which immerse into pores to clean dirt and makeup, leaving your face clean and refreshed. On contact, it feels like shaving foam and tickles slightly as it works itself into your pores.  Leave it on for five minutes, then rinse off with a warm towel, and your skin feels instantly smoother. Contains green tea extract, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and soy protein, which help calm lines, and keep skin radiant and firm.

Kiehl’s Imperial Body Balm

open kiehlsI have really dry skin this time of year, so if I could (afford it) I would bathe in this stuff.  I love the packaging, the way it smells — a special blend of amber and vanilla essences — and most importantly, the result.  This product deeply hydrates my skin all day without being greasy or messy.  The gorgeous yellow coloring comes from the natural ingredient, Sea Buckhorn Berry, which is able to survive harsh climates and is known for its healing and protective properties.

More about the Balm:

  • Inspired by old-world Russian herbal remedies
  • Deeply hydrates, regenerates, and comforts extremely dry, lackluster skin
  • Accelerates cell turnover with honey and fruit glycolic acids to immediately reveal a new skin softness and radiance
  • High levels of antioxidant-rich butters help protect skin from environmental damage

What is Charity Water?

Right now, 1.1 billion people on the planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. That’s one in six of us.

Charity: water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations. They give 100% of the money raised to direct project costs, funding sustainable clean water solutions in areas of greatest need. Just $20 can give one person in a developing nation clean water for 20 years.

To Spin New York for hosting a wonderful birthday and showing my guests a great time.  I think I worked off all the calories from my birthday drinks playing ping pong in my heels.

Making my wish!

And especially to the LOVES of my life who got me the jazz band, the Mad Jazz Hatters from one of my favorite restaurants, Moto to play my party.  This is probably one of the most amazing gifts I’ve ever received.
