A bit about StyleHive, from StyleHive:

We’ve created tools that enable a community focused on amplifying the “buzz” factor in the online shopping world.

It is so cool, I am telling you! I am addicted.

Have You Met Carol's Daughter?

Founded in a small kitchen in Brooklyn, New York, Lisa Price, a.k.a. Carol's Daughter is making a name for herself with her homemade beauty products - now available at Sephora.com

First there was Jada Pinket Smith, then Mary J. Blige - now moi!

OMG! The Almond Cookie scented products are divine! Almond, sandalwood, and vanilla make this scent combination so warm and sweet.  

The Body Cleansing Gel & Salt Scrub are in my shower this week. They are so rich - yet gentle, and smell - delicious!

I plan on trying a few or her goodies in the Ocean and Melon Melange scents next.

And if you are African-American, her hair products are rumored to be the best - secretly loved by some of the best in the biz! If you have tried any, please do let us know.

How did Bliss know that one of my biggest problem areas this Summer is my upper lip?

I have been noticing faint vertical lines around my shrinking lip, and I am always trying to control the hair growth above my lip, while dealing with the hyperpigmentation that waxing so regularly leaves behind.

Along comes Bliss Spiff Upper Lip. It is a unique age-defying formula that helps solve my upper-lip dilemma’s with a - one, two, three, four – punch.

1. 10% retinol-molcular film helps to reduce lip line wrinkles
2. Capislow Complex helps reduce upper lip hair re-growth
3. Miracle Molecule helps increase lip volume
4. Alpha Arbutin helps lighten pigmentation

All I know, is that these fancy smancy ingredients are working for me and my “problem” area. With just over three weeks of use, I am noticing a difference in the volume of my lips, the decrease in lines around my lips, and my hyperpigmentation is fading. The jury is still out on my hair re-growth as my few hairs are so blonde right now, but I suspect that they may be growing a bit slower.
