MOUTHBALL

With winter right around the corner, it’s all about the ball for the bouche. Eos’s “Evolution of Smooth” protects lips with shea butter, vitamin E and a blend of other yummy little oils. The balm is 100% natural, paraben free and it’s all stuffed inside a slick, succulent little sphere. Honeysuckle, Honeydew, Summer Fruit, and Sweet Mint are the 3 flavors that keep the summer season and your lips alive even in the dead of winter. The sphere itself is a brilliant little thing, molded in soothing pastel colors, subtly stamped logo and toss-able even in the smallest of satchels. Best of all, the directions: “Pucker up, Smooth On, Smile”. –>

Kamon

Fearful of oils filling your facade? Its time to face off with Shu Uemura. Their line of cleansing oils continue to be the steadfast staple of girls and geisha’s alike offering oil-to-milk grease relief when blended with water. And now, in limited edition, Shu Uemura is offering their line adorned with the artwork of renowned manga artist Moyoco Anno. Each product is associated with a different Kamon girl of Tokyo such as the elegant Matsuno or the strong willed Tamaki whose orange, checkered bottle is a common pattern used in kimona textiles. Pick some up soon or it’ll be Sayonara, sweet-heart. –>

Bat

If you’re already curlin’ your lashes with Shu Uemura’s iconic curler then bat your eyes in style with Tokyo Lash Bar 2009. Inspired by mystic nature scenes, striking color options and unique patterns, you can transform yourself into a mystical minx in minutes. There are 9 options to choose from and they’re a mere 79 bucks. Just steer clear of the rainbow ones or you’ll look like a Pride Day, PATH train party-girl and that’s eyesore not eye candy. –>

STOP

Sniff, Swirl, Sip, Spit…and WIPE? Chill out winos, you now have the tool you need to take the tanin off your tombstones. Borracha’s (salty) Wine Wipes were developed to preserve the taste of your Pinot while preventing nasty stains of vino rouge on those thousand dollar veneers. The compact comes complete with 20 wipes, a mirror, and is ready for the packin’. Grab one when your jumpin’ the jet to Napa. Asente! –>

Lip

In the exhausting world of naming lip colors to entice women to pucker up, you’ve got to be creative. Even if it does mean reaching low. Urban Decay’s Pocket Rocket Lip Gloss forgoes the usual color descriptions and has the ladies reaching for a man. Who knew that different shades of pink could be named “Jesse”, “Kirk” and “David”! Even more, you can strip ‘em with the tilt of the bottle. I’m surprised the directions don’t say “Use your mouth to get the TOP off.” Unfortunately, Urban Decay must be only aiming for straight girls & men on the DL given the absence of nude chicks. Hey Urban! Lesbians use lipgloss too! –>

Crystal

You cant make this up, “Exclusive Smart Crystals?”,”ancient sacred geometry”, and my personal favorite…”The most precious metal on earth now empowers your most precious asset; your skin.” MY SKIN? If I spend $1000 on a magic cream, it better empower my real most precious asset.  And when you remove all the other magical adjectives for LaPrarie’s Cellular Cream Platinum Rare, it’s pretty much face cream. But it is a jewel to look at…and the Swarovski crystal container can double as a paperclip holder when you’re done. I have a box just like it. Double VALUE! The good news is, if you “appreciate all that’s pure and rare and…know you deserve the very best in the world” but your allowance is a little less this year, there’s a $650 option for a 1 oz. Pure, Rare, Eternal..Priceless. –>

Here

Yup, they did it again. The inventors of the recycled, remade, and reused, bra strap sans boobie holders for the head came up with another one. Bumble and Bumble’s monumental new offering for hair holdbacks will be rolling into bathrooms everywhere and will have 100 bands available for the pickens.  There’s a color for every mood and an orb in the middle to hang on to all the strays that you actually don’t lose. And if need “a little extra size” you can buy two to put into the bras you haven’t cut up. Snap ‘em up quick!…they’re  “Limited Edition”. –>

Second

Women will never change their masochistic ways when it comes to fulfilling a full-grown shoe fetish. And why should they when a $450 pair of strappy heels gives more satisfaction than 15 minutes of faking it for the other half. But when feet start looking like road kill, its time to step in and offer a solution that won’t rub her the wrong way. Band-Aid Activ-Flex Blister Block Stick is an invisible wonder lube disguised as a deodorant. Smooth on a little in those uncomfortable areas and its blister-free with even the most ill-fitting, double markdown, heels of steel.

Tropics

The same expected ancillary products - scented body wash, lotion and a candle, follow most fine fragrances. Kai, the exotic flower darling of the press, gives you those and a bubble above the rest. Body Buffer is a set of two sponges infused with a blend of Gardenia, white flowers and hydrating oils to smooth skin. Just add water and “ho brah,” a dangerously sexy lather. –>
