Body Butter: c/o Perlier Imperial Honey

Perlier “Imperial Honey” is a new body butter product from Italian beauty brand Perlier. The body butter is made from the rare honey of black bees and combined with royal jelly. It is considered to be a “youth-elixir.”

I tested out Perlier’s “Imperial Honey” body butter for one week. This time of year my skin tends to get dry from the heater and the dry weather we typically have in the fall months. Perleir’s “Imperial Honey” body butter was a welcome test for my dry skin. I love how it quickly nourished my skin and left it feeling anything but dry!

Body creams, lotions and butters with a scent are my favorite to use. I have a bit of a fragrance addiction 🙂 I love the warm fragrance experience from Perlier’s “Imperial Honey” body butter. There were fragrance notes of honey, woods and soft spices which carried me throughout the day. The scent was easy to blend with warm fragrances such as Dolce & Gabbana “Desire the one” and Van Cleef & Arpel’s “Precious Oud.”

The verdict? Five out of five stars!

Perlier’s “Imperial Honey” body butter is priced at $40 and can be found online here. Use coupon code iFABBO5 and save $5 on your order! Love that!

The Holidays are fast approaching and that means we need to start thinking about the perfect gifts for our loved ones! I always enjoy giving gifts which I feel the recipient would love. Since most women on this planet love hand cream, I will be giving the gift of soft and nourished hands to a few of my loved ones this Holiday season. Shhh, don’t tell them-it’s a surprise! 🙂

My favorite hand cream is by Laura Mercier. I have been using Laura Mercier’s “Crème Brulee” hand cream for close to ten years now, and my hands always thank me for it. Laura Mercier’s hand cream not only nourishes and repairs dry skin, it creates a barrier against the elements in order to help protect your hands from future abuse. Love that!

Before I do any housework, I always apply Laura Mercier’s hand cream. It keeps my hands safe from the effects of housecleaning chemicals which may seep into my gloves; and somehow Comet and water always find their way inside my gloves! Grrr. Thankfully Laura Mercier’s hand cream protects my hands from the chemicals and keeps them soft and free from dry skin. Love it!

If you have never tried Laura Mercier’s hand cream, or if you are already a fan like me, the hand cream sampler is the perfect gift to give to yourself this holiday season! Laura Mercier’s Hand Cream Sampler contains four purse sized hand cream’s in beautiful scents! The set contains “Crème de Pistache,” “Fresh Fig Honey,” “Almond Coconut Milk” and my favorite, “Crème Brulee!”

Laura Mercier’s Hand Cream Sampler is priced at a mere $28 (THIS IS A GREAT DEAL!!!) and can be found online here and here.

There is nothing like a relaxing bubble bath! Let’s face it, whether you work full time, are a full time Mommy or you are just plain stressed out-a bubble bath is your ticket to relaxation! For me, I need the perfect fragrance in my tub in order to create the perfect, relaxing bubble bath. Thankfully Laura Mercier’s line of foaming honey bath products offers the ultimate, fragrant bubble bath! Love it!

Fresh Fig Honey by Laura Mercier offers a sweet fruity-wood fragrance experience which is perfect for the cool autumn weather. The sweet scent of apricot combined with ylang-ylang starts the fragrance experience off with an invigorating, eye opening scent. After the fruity floral scent settles down the warm, woody gourmand base rises up and creates a cozy, relaxing fragrance experience throughout your bath. Loved it!

Fragrance notes: Apricot Nectar, Ylang-Ylang, rich Vanilla, exotic Sandalwood and Fig Musk.

What I love about Laura Mercier’s Fresh Fig Honey bath is how luxurious the foaming bath experience is. Laura Mercier’s Fresh Fig Honey bath offers rich bubbles which not only offer an amazing fragrance experience; they don’t pop half-way through your bath! In addition, they work like soap so I am squeaky-clean after my bubble bath! Love that!

I highly recommend Laura Mercier Fresh Fig Honey bath for the ultimate, luxurious and fragrant bubble bath. I am also a huge fan of Laura Mercier’s foaming honey bath in Ambre Vanille, crème brulee and coconut milk. Yum!

Laura Mercier’s Fresh Fig Honey bath is priced at $40 and can be found online here.
