Product Review: Physicians Formula @PFCosmetics

I have a ton of lip glosses, lip sticks, lip crayons, etc. and when I come across a new one I just have to try it! But no all of them work so well and when you are on the run and need to put on lip gloss in a hurry, where’s the mirror?  That is why I love pHmatchmaker pH powered lip gloss. This lip gloss by Physicians Formula reacts to your own lip pH and creates a flattering color just for you that lasts for 10 hours. It also has an LED powered cap so you can see your lips when you apply. Did I mention the mirror on the side?? What a fab idea. They are fragrance free, gluten and paraben free. The cost is $9.95.

I also tested out a few of Physicians Formula’s other great products. The sexy booster glossy stain is another great product. It is a gloss and stain hybrid formula that lasts 12 hours. They infused it with ingredients that mimic the effect of pheromones and it has a scent of vanilla and musk. It comes in red and pink and it is $9.95.

I also loved the Happy Booster, a glow and mood boosting illuminating bronzing veil. Made of powdered heats in a compact, the gold and bronze hearts provide a shimmery glow of bronzer.  It costs $13.95.

The mineral wear talc-free airbrushing pressed bronzer SPF 30 is an ultra fine pressed bronzer that is perfect for sensitive or breakout-prone skin. It has Vitamins A & E and formulated with Chamomile, Ginseng and Green Tea for a flawless look. It comes in light bronzer and bronzer and costs $13.95.

Next time you need a good makeup line check them out online and most every CVS!

A better natural deodorant? @mygeodeo

Is your deodorant working for you? Have you checked the ingredients on the label? In an effort to try to find myself a product that works and does not have yucky chemicals in it, I discovered GEODEO Natural Deodorant Plus Detox Complex. The 97% natural deodorant glides on clear and provides 24 hours of protection without the use of aluminum, parabens and silicone. It actually uses volcanic minerals and Icelandic algae to fight impurities found in the body and fight daily buildup. It does not block pores. It allows the pores to excrete toxins naturally through the process of sweating but the active enzymes in GEODEO helps neutralize body odors. It also contains bamboo and aloe to nourish the skin as well as contains vitamin E! The Island is my favorite as smells great.  It is available in Unscented, Ocean and Island and costs $5.99.  Check it out!

Disclosure: The company sent me some samples to test out. All opinions are my own.

Gift list alert! Gift Ideas for the Holiday for mom, dad, kids and pets

Here it is! Check out my stocking stuffer segment from @NECN New England Cable News. Below are some great gift ideas and stocking stuffer items and most are under $30.00.

  • Everyone needs a calendar for the new year and I cannot say enough about Calendars.com. They have the best selection of calendars online. Moms will love the VanGogh Tri-folo Frame wall calendar as it has three separate frames and can be hung vertically or horizontally and used with any photo! ($18.99)  They also have great personalized and customizable calendars.
  • Anything from Yankee Candle Co. makes a great hostess gift  – $27.99 for the Large Jars or gift sets start at $19.99. Their fragrances are just great.
  • I think The Art of Shaving starter kit ($25) is a ideal for the teenager who just started shaving or the husband who needs something a little more luxurious than his usual razor and shave cream.
  • Our tradition each Christmas Eve is to open up a gift of PJ’s and Life is Good has comfy PJ’s with cute prints and sayings for the whole family.  Kids like to wear them as lounging pants too.

Onto the stockings stuffer gift ideas:

Kids: Remember looking in your stocking on Christmas morning? Sweet treats and personal care items were the norm for me growing up!

  • In the kids stockings I am sure Santa will add a sweet treat. The packaging, presentation and the quality of Hebert candies is great.  The Shrewsbury, MA based-company offers a fun time for the holiday season so if you can, head to the mansion off 495!  Prices start at $1.95.
  • Peppa & Friends Figure Packs ($7.99) and DVD,($14.98) is a must have gift for toddlers.  Peppa is a loveable, British Pig and airs on Nick Jr.
  • Teens will love the Edward and Bella commemorative Twilight ornament which is available at Hallmark stores for $17.95.
  • COVERGIRL outlast stay brilliant nail color lasts 7 days and we love the dark colors.
  • Any of the new products from Conair.com  and their sister-brand scünci would make a great gift. Girls love The Knotted Ponytail holders and Ponytailer Bracelets that look like jewelry too!
  • Willa!  My girls love this new line of skin care called Willa.  It is paraben and sulfate free.  The skincare line was developed by a mom and daughter.

Pets: We love our pets like our own kids so let’s pamper them this holiday season!

  • Melrose, Mass. based Lilly & Abbie  is an online store that allows you to design your own custom products including pet items. Who would not want a matching collar and leash?   (starting at $24)
  • Your dog will love the Animal Planet Plush dog toy set for $19.99 at Kohls.  This 4 pack is so cute with a hidden squeaker inside each stuffed toy.
  • Crinkits from Zigoopets  is designed to provide protection around a water bottle. Crinkits give your dog an interactive toy they won’t want to put down. ($19.99)

MOM: Remember when you were little and you literally got socks and underwear in your stocking? Now perfume, cosmetics, a gift card or two would be welcome too!

  • For mom’s stocking she will love Boot Tights  What a concept – tights with socks built into them so you can be cozy in your boots. No more cold feet or feet slipping in your boots. Check out the site or find them Bloomingdales, or Nordstroms.com. (starting at $30)
  • Hourglass Cosmetics is my new favorite line.  Hourglass is a line of cosmetics that is largely paraben- and gluten-free (as well as PETA-friendly!). The Best Of Hourglass Set is so nice! (Lipstick starts at $30, kit is $59)

DAD: Grooming essentials are a key gift and some items for the home office to make it smell nice this season would be a welcome change.

  • Riedel Water Carafe is the first of its kind, brand new and perfect for infused water from Riedel Crystal. Available online and at and at major retailers such as Williams-Sonoma, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Macy’s. ($49.95)
  • Gillette Fusion ProGlide Styler, is a brand new grooming innovation that combines technology from Gillette and Braun in a single, 3-in-1 tool.

Offering wet and dry shaving, it’s compact, runs on AA batteries and doesn’t need to be charged, so it fits perfectly into any busy man’s travel plans! Available in major retailers such as Target and CVS for $19.99.
  • ​AirCraft Infused ScentSticks provide a purer, cleaner, safer and greener alternative to home fragrance, allowing you to mix and match ScentSticks to create custom fragrances for the home.  AIRCRAFT introduced a selection of colored vases available in eight contemporary shades which add a pop of festive color to the room. Starter Kits (5 ScentSticks and vase) retail nationwide for $12.99. We also love ScentSicles Scented Ornaments. ScentSicles Scented Ornaments are an innovative way to infuse holiday spirit into your home with authentic seasonal fragrances that can be hidden throughout your home décor. ScentSicles, 5.5 inch long ornaments, can be hooked into faux (and real) Christmas trees and wreaths to add authentic/enhance scent. ScentSicles retail nationwide for $7.99. It’s a great gift for dad to put in his car or office to make it smell like the holidays.

@WCAP: holiday decorating, stocking stuffer ideas for mom’s, teens

Today on 980 WCAP-AM we talked holiday decorating and stocking stuffer gift ideas. I have gathered some great finds for my TV segment.  Here are just a few that I have tested out!

I wish I thought of this great invention called Boottights.com – a sock and tight all in one.   There are lots of colors and styles to choose from so check out the site.  They are tights with socks built into them so you can be cozy in your boots. No more cold feet or feet slipping in your boots, check out the site or find them at Neiman marcus.com or Norstroms.com

COVERGIRL has a new line of nail polish. The COVERGIRL outlast stay brilliant nail color is high gloss nail color that can last for as long as 7 days – great colors too. I love how it looks very shiny just like you get at the salon but I did not have to apply a top coat and it dries very quickly – bonus!

Any of the new products from Conair  and their sister-brand scünci would make a great gift for teens/tweens. The Knotted Ponytail holders from scünci are so colorful kids love to wear them as bracelets but always have one on hand (or I should say on their wrist) Find them for $3.99 at major retailers. They also have a sleek line of  Ponytailer Bracelets that look like jewelry too! Perfect for older kids and moms too.  We also love Conair’s tools to create different looks like the French Twist Updo clip and the Bun Maker which are both easy to use. The Topsy Tail is also quite the tool that can create multiple hairstyles like a fun twisted pony or braids.  I also tested out the Infiniti Pro by Conair™ 1875 Watt Salon Performance AC Motor Styling Tool hair dryer. I remember as a child receiving a fancy hair dryer (remember the ones with a shower cap like device attached with a hose to another device?) Well times have changed and so have hair dryers. Ergonomically designed for ultimate comfort this dryer certainly produces salon-quality results. It’s quiet and it does ensures fast drying time too – perfect us moms on the go!
