Do you Spa? If you do or if you want to, then you must check out all the Spa's best over at Spas of America.

MAC Prep + Prime Microfine Lip Refinisher.

I love lip exfoliating products, and in the Summer when the lips are exposed to the heat, sun and wind, it is almost a must for me. I am such a fan of Tarte's fRxtion with it's duo sided tube and wonderful taste, so I was thrilled to have discovered this one from MAC. This is from the MAC Summer Future Earth Collection, and it is their Prep + Prime Microfine Lip Refinisher.

On one side, there is a natural exfoliator that is made up from botanically derived ingredients, while the other side of the stick is a superb lip conditioner, with the yummy MAC Vanilla flavor, that helps to moisturize, nourish and soothe lips.

As with anything else, it is very important to wear a sunscreen on your lips when spending a lot of time outdoors, especially when using an exfoliating product. I wish that the lip conditioner side contained one, but it does not, so be sure to use one - okay?

Prep + Prime is $14.50 at MAC.

L'Oreal Skin Genesis.

My friends over at Total Beauty recently asked me to try out two products from the L'Oreal Skin Genesis Line. I used L’Oreal Skin Genesis Multi-Layer Cell Strengthening Daily Treatment together with the Multi-Layer Cell Strengthening Daily Moisturizer for a few weeks now. My initial reaction - impressive.

I have written an entire review on these beauties, but you will have to check it out over on Aging Fabulous. I really liked these products, and I actually surprised myself as I am usually a skin care snob - meaning the more expensive the better, which I know is not true. And these products are a perfect example.
