Laughter - The Iconic Space NK Fine Fragrance Collection
“The most wasted of days is one without laughter”-E.E Cummings.

Laughter, Space NK’s best selling fine fragrance, is available in a choice of indulgent gifts this holiday season. Rooted in Nicky Kinnaird’s personal memories of childhood, Laughter is an uplifting fragrance inspired by the Spanish Mediterranean Costa del Azahar, where the sun drenched orange groves sweep down to the sea.
Fresh citrus top notes of bergamot, grapefruit and lime are invigorated by the tonic effect of juniper berry, angelica root and verbena with refreshing aromatic notes of rosemary, fennel and coriander. The sensual woody base of patchouli, amber and musk is enlivened by a sweet, spicy bite of ginger.
Laughter Eau de Toilette, $80.00 (50ml)
Laughter Eau de Parfum, $95.00 (50ml)

Introducing the New Space NK Fine Fragrance Collections
Inspired by some of the most unforgettable travel destinations, Nicky Kinnaird introduces four new Space NK fine fragrances for Autumn/Winter ‛08. To celebrate the festive season, these new fine fragrances will be offered in a beautiful selection of gifts.

“Fragrance is one of life’s great pleasures. Personal fragrance and passion are all irrevocably intertwined - the ultimate sensory experience is also a highly sensual one.” Nicky Kinnaird.
The Fine Fragrances: Each fragrance explores the connection between scent and memory, combined with the spirit of travel and discovery.
Tuberoli
Reminiscent of a romantic weekend in Rome, Tuberoli evokes a sense of indulgent femininity and intrigue. A flirtatious, white floral blend of tuberose, neroli and ylang ylang envelop a sensuous base of blackcurrant leaves and luscious peach.
Champaca
Inspired by the breathtaking majesty and exoticism of Rajasthan, Champaca is deliciously earthy and sensual. This beguiling blend of the revered champaca flower and aromatic vetivert is spiced with cedar wood, rich amber crystals and black musk.

Marta Walsh Interviews Patricia Kara from Deal or NO Deal
Couple of months ago, I had an amazing opportunity to interview the beautiful Patrica Kara for Beauty Interviews.

Patricia Kara is an actress, model, and a TV personality best known as Deal or No Deal’s #9. Patricia along with Tameka Jacobs, were the only ones chosen to be on the new Daytime Deal or No Deal with Howie Mandel, which premiered in September 2008. In addition, Patricia has appeared in over 20 television programs, such as, E! Entertainment’s Wild On, Extra, and the Golden Globes.
Read my interview with Patricia Kara where we chat about her love for hosting TV shows, how Deal or No deal revolutionized her career, beauty secrets, her upcoming calendar, and plans for the future.
Why have you decided on a career in hosting and reporting?
I started out with modeling about twenty years ago back in Chicago. That led me to Florida and New York. When I was in New York my modeling agency started to send me out to auditions for hosting and acting. I started booking jobs here and there. One job led to the next job. Then I moved to LA and kept working. And I love it! Anytime I can talk and get paid for it to, is just great. I find my job real easy, it is what I love to do. With hosting I get to try new and different things, depending on what I’m hosting about, and being part of them in a way most people don’t get to do. For example, if I do a show about wake boarding, I’ll try wake boarding. I’ve done a fishing show. I’ve also hosted a lot of sporting events, such as Kentucky Derby.

How To Unwind After a Long Day at the Office With Olay & Eye-Soothe Mask
At the end of a long, tiring day at the office most of us are ready for some R&R. Yet frequent spa visits can be luxurious indulgence for many women to fit into their regular beauty routine. But luckily Olay has created an easy way to improve our lives for the better with Olay Body Wash plus Spa Exfoliating Ribbons. No expensive treatments or inconvenient appointments needed.

Olay Body Wash plus Spa Exfoliating Ribbons with micro-beads and seaweed extract, which was featured in Marie Claire’s “25 New Products That Will Change Your Life,” wraps skin in gentle exfoliants and intensive moisturizers while creamy lather provides a clean shower feeling. The body wash contains seaweed extract and micro-beads, the same ingredients used in popular spa body treatments. SRP: $3.99 (10 oz.) and $5.99 (18 oz.).
I tried Olay Body Wash plus Spa Exfoliating Ribbon with micro-beads and seaweed extract and it feels like silk on my skin, while the micro-beads do an excellent job in exfoliating my skin. I like using Olay Body Wash plus Spa Exfoliating Ribbons with micro-beads and seaweed extract after a long day of blogging:) and especially on the weekends.
Complete your R&R with Eye-Soothe Tension Relieving Mask by Brookstone which uses Air Inflation Technology to gently massage eyes, forehead and sinuses, alleviating pressure and working away stress. Also, delivers soothing comfort during headaches. SRP: $50.

Good point. So we had 10 testers review hand creams for two weeks. Which ones offered the best hydration — and which were just greasy? Find out in the ratings. |

Buyer beware! Don’t get suckered by dodgy labels on beauty products
|
|
Admit it: When you buy a product labeled “organic” or “natural” you get a warm, fuzzy feeling — even if it costs twice as much. Well, it’s our job to bring you down to earth: Organic and natural beauty products are often twisted on labels to the point that they’re virtually meaningless terms. |

Kiehl’s Forest Rain Eau de Toilette Spray
This fall, Kiehl’s Since 1851 is exceedingly proud to carry on its apothecary tradition by bringing a new fragrance into its scent library.

Kiehl’s Forest Rain Eau de Toilette is a spicy, yet woodsy blend, inspired by many of the classic essences once sold in Kiehl’s original apothecary, and like all Kiehl’s products, is appropriate for both men and women. Sure to be an instant classic, Forest Rain Eau de Toilette is the first new Eau De Toilette from Kiehl’s since the introduction of Kiehl’s popular Musk Eau de Toilette in 2004.
A gorgeous, deep forest green glass bottle houses this fresh blend of Muguet, Vetiver, Citrus and Cedar Wood, which has the following scent characteristics:
Top notes are Wet Grass and Muguet Petals combined with a Peppery Sweet Citrus and Earthy Guaic Leaves.
Middle notes include Damp Moss with Jasmine and other White Flowers.
Dry Down has the essence of Deep Sunbleached Hay, Cedarwood and Vetiver, and a Soft Musk.
