NATURAL COSMECEUTICALS MEET LUXURY

Cosmetics27 was created by Michele Evrard, a pharmacist and an international cosmetic expert, who envisioned a line of skincare products that would address the needs of her demanding skin: anti aging and rejuvenating yet soothing and nurturing. With the help of scientists and a cutting edge French laboratory, she developed an outstanding luxury skincare line that would gather all the ingredients for success:
- a proprietary combination of highly effective natural ingredients : 3 natural purified extract of Centella Asiatica for its exceptional repairing and rejuvenating benefits
- innovative and exceptional textures inspired by traditional apothecary preparations such as balms and ointments.
- scientific expertise supported by continuous testing for unbiased proven results,
- specific application routine to enhance the product efficiency for long lasting results.
Baume27, the 1st product created in 2009, was soon established as a STAR product, the perfect balance between effectiveness and the most unique experience.
Thereafter, Cosmetics27 developed a complete beauty regimen and became a reference as a high end, high touch natural regenerating dermo active skincare.
The skin is renewed and restored and simply recovers its inner balance.
Recommended and prescribed originally by dermatologists and anti-aging specialists to meet the needs of the most demanding skins, it is now the most wanted and appreciated natural luxury line of skincare products.

Rejuvenate Immediate Face Lift    $69.95 On Sale $62.95 w/free S + H      Available @ Nu Vision Salon

ReJuvenate Immediate Face Lift cream should be considered as a cosmetic surgery alternative, daily use will: tighten skin, rehydrate skin, smooth deep wrinkles, stimulate collagen synthesis and repair skin using a unique blend of all natural ingredients.  ReJuvenate is a unique, all natural, new generation tightening and lifting cream for both men and women.  ReJuvenate's high density, all natural formula lifts, tightens and rehydrates skin in just a few minutes.  The combination of carefully chosen ingredients when applied daily will help the skin regain a radiant and younger appearance.

Makeup Addict had been hearing a lot about Rejuvenate but I thought it was an injection or something that needed to be applied by a professional.  I was really surprised to see that it is available to the general public and I have to say the sale price above seems relatively reasonable for something that does what Rejuvenate Immediate Face Lift claims.  Mostly all I have heard has been very positive so this just might actually work like it is supposed to!!!

Guerlain Shalimar Parfum Initial Eau de Parfum, 1.3 oz $67.00 by Guerlain at Macy's

Shalimar Parfum Initial, the new Guerlain fragrance, is an initiation to sensuality. Discover this luminous Amber-Floral fragrance and experience the moment romance began with this 1.3 oz Eau de Parfum.  It is the moment where it all begins. The fresh, citrusy burst of bergamot gives way to a delicate floral heart: an orchestrated overdose of rose, jasmine, and iris. Its base of vanilla and tonka bean instantly creates addiction, like the captivating feel of cashmere on bare skin.

Makeup Addict thought I was seeing things when I saw the information about this new perfume from Guerlain.  I have adored Guerlain's Shalimar for years but I do admit I use less of it than other favorite fragrances  I love as it is a stronger (heavier) fragrance.  Don't get me wrong - it is not overbearing, just a tiny bit strong if I use my usual amount of perfume.  Not that it really makes a difference - except to the appearance -- but I like the 'pink' color compared to Shalimar's usual golden tone.  I won't need to tread lightly any more - Guerlain has done it for me with Guerlain Shalimar Parfum Initial Eau de Parfum and, believe me, I can hardly wait to get my hands on it!!!
