07/25/12Beat the Frizzies
I’ve tried Macadamia and Moroccan oils and loved them both; but fickle me, now I have a new crush on Argan oil. It smoothes hair and reduces blow drying time like the others, but also acts as a natural UV and thermal protector. Just spritz it on for weightless shine and frizz control. U Luxury Argan Oil. $47.95 at www.unitehair.com. Posted at 12:53 PM | Permalink | Comments: 0 |

07/18/12Rub-a-Dub-Scrub
While I was getting a pedicure over the weekend, Jennifer and JoAnna Sciarrino of Derma Glow of New York in North Salem (1 Dingle Ridge Rd, 914-338-7822; dermaglowofny.com) clued me in about Scrubz (scrubzbodyscrub.com), one of their best-selling products. This all-natural scrub is actually four products in one: body scrub, facial scrub, shave prep, and natural moisturizer. Who doesn’t love a multi-tasker, especially when it comes in so many delicious scents like Sweet Milk and Honey, Warm Vanilla, Wild Cherry Almond, and more. $27 for a 16-ounce jar.

07/11/12The Caviar Treatment
Three-dimensional nails? That’s what Ciate promises with its new Ciate Caviar manicure kit, so named because of the tiny shiny pearl-like beads you sprinkle over wet nails. Choose from black, pearl, or rainbow beads; $25 each at sephora.com. Posted at 01:12 PM | Permalink | Comments: 0 |

07/03/12Cut the Clutter
Ever since my kids came home from college, I’ve got hair appliances all over my bathroom: curling iron, flat iron, blow dryer, the works, and it isn’t pretty. Then I discovered this cool new wall mounted cabinet that neatly holds all your hair appliances—they fit right into their mounting devices and one switch turns them all on or off. Brilliant. The Style & Go Hair Care Valet comes in white, black and espresso, $149. Available for pre-order now; by July 25 on HSN and www.simplysolvedinnovations.com.
