Hey Gang!

Get rid of this bookmark because I have some great things planned for Product Junkie. I have hired a professional writer who will review cutting edge products and focus more on what celebrities are using. There won’t be AS MANY posts a day because she really is going to test everything out. But the ones that we post, will be great. So be sure to check out Fashionista to see new the goodies!!

I absolutely love Kiehl’s Since 1851 and it was announced in WWD this morning that they’re launching a new anti-aging body care line – Superbly Restorative. According to WWD:

“This is our first totally restorative body care collection,” said Chris Salgardo, U.S. president of Kiehl’s, of the brand’s new Superbly Restorative body care lineup. It is set for an April launch. “Usually, we save the highest-tech ingredients for the face — but we felt strongly about launching a line which offered similar benefits for the body.”

The brand’s best-selling skin care product at present is Creme de Corps, a body lotion which focuses on hydration, explained Salgardo. “Superbly Restorative, which we will launch on Earth Day, gives restorative benefits, as well. It can be used in tandem with Creme de Corps, or on its own.”

The ingredient powering Superbly Restorative is organic argan oil, which Kiehl’s is sourcing from the Targanine Cooperative in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. While argan oil may be relatively new to skin care, it has a long history among the Berber population in Morocco, said Salgardo.”

The collection will include two products at launch: Superbly Restorative Body Lotion, and Superbly Restorative Dry Oil with a third product, Superbly Restorative Skin Salve, expected in June.

One of my favorite guilty pleasures in The Hills. I can’t help but love Lauren Conrad, so naturally, I’m very interested in her favorite beauty picks- even if she is paid to like the brand! That aside, mark by Avon is a great brand that always comes out with fun, innovative beauty products. This mark Pop In Color Palette is a customizable, slim, portable case that contains four spots to hold your choices of lipgloss, eyeliner and eyeshadow.

Price: $6

It happens at least once per trip; the need to shave.

My scruff grows in very evenly, so I can get away with a two or three day beard. After about a week I start looking like a homeless person. Except for the designer clothes, accessories and clean hair, of course. Oh, let’s face it, I could never be mistaken for a transient, but you know what I mean.

Travel-approved sizes are the newest restriction in a post-911 world. Many people opt to leave their toiletries at home and buy what they need when they get to their destination or borrow it from the hotel. I don’t leave my beauty to chance. How do you know you’re going to find high quality stuff when you get there?

“TSA Approved Size. Rich and creamy foam, made with the extracts of jojoba oil and aloe.”

Cost: $9.5

I’m a product sample you know what.

I’m also one of those people who, when they get nervous or over-excited, breaks out into hives. With the addition of my generally glowing yet extremely pale completion, it makes for a really lovely combination. At my dermotologists office the other day, I noticed samples of Eucerin Calming Creme and helped myself.

When you say “free,” I say “I’ll take two.”

This thick, creamy white moisturizer contains oatmeal — a natual calming ingredient. Although not specifically a redness relief product, it cools, soothes and calms the skin. Perfect for those flush moments.

Cost: $20
