Gillette Venus Breeze
I’m all about smooth skin. This is why finding the right razor for shaving and getting that silky soft skin without any pain is so important to me. I’ve recently discovered Gillette Venus Breeze and I became a fan. One major plus about this razor is that it doesn’t pull on my skin and it glides smoothly and effortlessly on my skin. It feels cushioned, if that makes sense. The Gillette Venus Breeze has a built in softening gel bars so it suggesting to skip the shaving cream, but because I’m so used to shaving cream I still use it with this razor. I know, it’s tough to fight habits sometimes, LOL.

Simply wet the razor for an amazingly smooth shave. Flexible Shave Gel Bars are built in, and contain rich body butters for a light lather, a smooth glide and no need for separate shave gel or soap.

Entourage Star Emmanuelle Chriqui Heads Up New Bodygrooming Movement
Emmanuelle Chriqui, star of HBO’s Entourage, has partnered with the new Braun bodycruZer to launch a Web site dedicated to male bodygrooming. She’ll serve as the “voice” of the online women’s movement to get more men to groom below the neck. Believe it or not, only one-third of guys claim to wax, trim or shave below the chest.
Emmanuelle will post blog entries to the site on a weekly basis and encourage women to share their thoughts about the posts and other male bodygrooming topics as well as praise the men in their lives who are dedicated to good bodygrooming habits by sending them a customizable Mr. bodycruZer video starring Emmanuelle. Men can also get in on the bodygrooming conversation by posting comments to the site and by showing off their well-groomed – or not so well-groomed – bodies by entering the Mr. bodycruZer online contest.
In addition to the Mr. bodycruZer video, Emmanuelle is also featured in a tongue-in-cheek video that introduces the movement.

How To Make Dry Feet And Heels Soft Again
As much as we all love summer, the constant flip flop and sandal-wearing can be rough on the heels – literally. Skyy Hadley of As “U” Wish Nail Spa has the perfect solution: a Meals for the Heels Mask.
Take one cup of regular oatmeal and 1/2 cup of regular milk and heat up over the stove, stir until cooked. Add sugar to thicken the mixture, and then let it cool off a bit. When the mix is thickened, apply to your feet. Leave the mask on for about 5 – 10 minutes. The oatmeal soothes dry, itchy or irritated skin, while the milk acts as an exfoliant to help get rid of dry and dead skin cells. Finish off with pure shea butter as a moisturizer and you’re all set.
