Since we’re on the subject of minis

Like we told you yesterday, there’s just something about minis that we really love. Bath & Body Works Body Butter Sampler

Not only are they great for traveling or throwing into our purse, but they’re SO CUTE! AND SMALL!

This Body Butter Sampler from Bath & Body Works includes four 2 oz. Healing Body Butters in Cherry Blossom (we have this on our desk at work), Warm Vanilla Sugar, Moonlight Path and Cucumber Melon (another favorite of ours.)

We love how these body butters are rich and creamy with just the right amount of fragrance. They are ultra-hydrating and leave us feeling moisturized for hours after applying.

(Note: If you don’t like your body cream thick, these body butters are not for you.)

Better than the real Bubbly

Last week at the ISPA conference, we had an opportunity to sample a huge array of Jaqua Beauty products.

Look at their display! Isn’t it adorable?

Jaqua Beauty Jacqua BeautyJaqua Hydrating Shower Syrup

Adorable, however, is not Jaqua’s only attribute. These products are also YUMMY! and CUTE! and OH SO FUNCTIONAL!

We like the Hydrating Shower Syrup in Pink Champagne the best.

Loaded with vitamins A & E, grape seed extracts and ginseng, this body wash lathers nicely and rinses clean leaving our skin soft and hydrated. And the smell of Pink Champagne is divine.

And now you can get Jaqua products at Bath & Body Works.

The nine month stretch

Deluxe pampering for Mamas to be.

Mama Mio Tummy Rub

Why didn’t we know about this when we had our first baby?

If only we had known there are PREVENTIVE MEASURES that possibly could have kept our midsection from looking like a road map, with highways and intersections dangerously crossing and smashing into one another, we would have signed up immediately.

It’s true what they say about stretch marks: If your mother has them (like ours does, Hi Mom!), it’s quite possible that you will get them too. But you don’t have to go down without a fight.

Mama Mio products are made with Essential Fatty Acid-rich oils to nourish the lipid layer of the skin allowing elasticity and suppleness to help your skin recover from stretching during pregnancy.

Since we are DONE with having babies (four is plenty, don’t you think?) we especially like the BBB Kit which will make a nice baby shower gift for our preggo friends as it contains Tummy Rub (a rich oil blend to use religiously every day), Boob Tube (super firming bust treatment to hydrate delicate skin) and Wonder-Full Balm (concentration of waxes and oils to target annoying dry spots.)

We can’t think of anything more deluxe or pampering for the expectant mothers in our life. Fight, girls, FIGHT!

The Wonder Fruit

Archipelago Pomegranate Body Lotion

If you thought pomegranates were just an annoyingly messy snack that you don’t bother to split open because they look much better in the fruit bowl than they do splattered all over the kitchen floor, please think again.

This rich and creamy pomegranate body lotion by Archipelago smells delightfully fresh and is loaded with antioxidants and detoxifying enzyme boosters to keep skin looking young, vibrant and healthy.

Once we found the booth with these products, we could not walk away. We are under the spell of pomegranate and there’s no turning back. (Also? no red-stained juicy mess. How great is that?!)

Archipelago Pomegranate Body Lotion, $28
