Geluxury slippers review

One of my biggest complaints about my feet is how my heels crack so easily! Nothing ruins a pair of Manolo Blahniks more than a pair of cracked, ugly heels. Ugh! I have tried using various brands of foot cream but nothing ever works miracles. So when Geluxury contacted me to review their Polygel Geluxury Slippers, I jumped at the chance!

Geluxury slippers make foot moisturizing simple. Instead of messing with different foot creams, which can leave a sticky film on your foot, Geluxury slippers have a rubber lining that is infused with therapeutic botanicals and ceremides including mineral oil, avocado oil, canola oil, jojoba oil, grape seed oil, soybean oil, olive oil and ceramides. This rubber lining is called “SmartGel” and I have decided it has an IQ over 170! 😉

After wearing Geluxury slippers for about half an hour a day, over the course of one week, my cracked heels went away! I couldn’t believe it. No buffing, no messy creams and no scraping! How easy is that?!

Geluxury slippers come in two fashionable and fabulous colors; “Cuddle Cow” and “Leopard.” Priced at $49.95, they are cheaper than a spa visit and perfect as a holiday gift. Love that!

Geluxury slippers can be found online geluxury.com.


Laura Mercier Golden Honey Musk review

If you have been following my blog for awhile, you already know I am a huge fan of Laura Mercier’s bath products. Laura Mercier’s honey bath collection is a luxurious line of bubble baths which offer moisturizing properties and warm fragrances. Laura Mercier’s line of souffle body creme is equally luxurious; offering warm fragrances and vitamin-packed moisture. Love that!

For the 2014 holiday season, Laura Mercier is offering a beautiful gift box with both the Golden Honey Musk honey and Golden Honey Musk souffle body creme together as a duet. Love it! These beautiful smelling skin care products would normally cost $53 when purchased separately, but as a duet, they are priced at only $50. Perfect holiday gift!

Laura Mercier’s Golden Honey Musk Duet is a limited edition gift set for the holiday 2014 season. I love the idea of giving someone two of my favorite fragrant, skin care products in a pretty box. Golden Honey Musk is such a beautiful scent which is warm and ideal for the winter months. It makes the perfect gift!

I give both products in Laura Mercier’s Golden Honey Musk duet five out of five stars. I’m in love with this gift set!

Chanel Phenix nail polish Holidays 2014 review

Chanel always introduces a fabulous red nail polish for the holiday season. For the holiday 2014 season, Chanel has given us Phenix, which is a fabulous cherry red nail polish hue. 

Chanel Phenix nail polish is a classic cherry red. The color is vibrant and sweet, making it easy to wear on a daily basis. For the red nail polish aficionado, this is a must-have for collection. Chanel Phenix nail polish is the perfect, classic cherry red for wearing not only on a daily basis, but during any season of the year. Love that!

I tested out Chanel Phenix nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color. The nail polish lasted six days before chipping.

Chanel Phenix nail polish will be easy to wear during the holiday season and into the upcoming resort and spring seasons. The cherry red hue is light enough to work well with resort’s vibrant color palette and spring’s pastel hues. In addition, Chanel Phenix blends well with shades of blue; an important color family as we head into 2015.

Chanel Phenix nail polish, and the entire holiday 2014 beauty collection from Chanel, can be found online here and here.
