MOXIE: Goodbye Boring
I love great inventions and MOXIE is one of them!
Moxie is a NEW range of chic, girly, sanitary pads and panty liners bringing a touch of fabulousness to the dreaded ‘time of the month.’ The packaging is SO cute!
To combat issues that have annoyed women for decades, including cheap, flimsy packaging that breaks open causing your feminine hygiene products to spill into (or out of) your handbag, each Moxie pack comes with a 100% recyclable, re-usable and discreet 1930’s-esque tin.
No more hiding your products in the back of your bathroom closet or stuffing them in your sleeve when you go to the bathroom at work – think once you try Moxie, you’ll never grab anything else.
MOXIE the complete range:
Moxie Slenders Pads: Slenders pads come in a gorgeous pink candy-striped boudoir box with a real black bow. Slenders even come with a 100% recyclable tin compact that is oh-so purse-worthy (designed to fit three pads inside). SRP: $6.49 for 12 pack.
Beauty Tips for Stretching Summer
Summer is a beautiful time of the year: it’s nice and hot outside, we swim in the ocean or the pool, we get great skin and beachy waves thanks to sea water, get sun-kissed, and eat delicious and succulent fruits. Sometimes summer is SO good we don’t want it to go away.
Here are some beauty tip to stretch your summer just a little longer into fall…
Take a nice bath with Philosophy Raspberry Sorbet shower gel & Bubble bath to remind you of succulent summer fruits and ice cream. $16 at www.sephora.com
A nice sea salt body scrub such as Origins Incredible Spreadable Scrub Sea Salt Body Smoother will help satisfy your craving for sea water and ocean, $26. Available at www.beauty.com
You’ve spent hours on the beach or by the pool. You squeezed fresh lemon on your hair in your garden. Or you’ve spent some decent cash on your blond highlights. Whichever way you’ve achieved beautiful blonde highlights, you can stretch their life with Redken Blonde Glam Shampoo & Conditioner, and Blonde Glam Color Enhancer Rich Vanilla or Perfect Platinum. Available at redken.com for salons
Victoria’s Secret Sexy Little Things Give Me The Shimmers Shimmering Body Powder
Victoria’s Secret Sexy Little Things Give Me The Shimmers Shimmering Body Powder is one of my favorite things in the world. I know I’m a little OTT or Over The Top, but I believe I need a little sparkle in my life. I LOVE to shimmer, it cheers me up! What can I say, I’m a total girly girl.
On my last visit to NYC this July, I had an amazing opportunity to meet Tim Quinn, Giorgio Armani Beauty’s top makeup artist. As soon as we shaked hands Tim asked me: “Wow. How did you get your glow?” This is what I answered: “Scottsdale Arizona sun & Victoria’s Secret Sexy Little Things Give Me The Shimmers Shimmering Body Powder, thank you.”
Victoria’s Secret Sexy Little Things Give Me The Shimmers Shimmering Body Powder smells amazing and adds subtle shimmer to your skin.
Don’t be afraid to shimmer girls:)
Venus Embrace Celebrates the 60th Anniversary of the Bikini in America
This month marks the 60th anniversary of the bikini in America. When the first bikini was launched it caused an explosion on the fashion scene, and through the years that little piece of fabric has gone through quite an evolution in length, fabrics, colors and cuts. Today, the bikini is a defining force in summer style.
To help celebrate the bikini’s debut in America, Venus has prepared a timeline of 20th century swimsuit fashions and has worked with country star and dancer Julianne Hough to develop a “how to look your bikini best” tip sheet.
When it comes to donning a bikini, confidence is key. And, smooth skin can help! According to a recent survey, almost 75% of women said that they felt more confident after shaving. Research also shows that shaving makes women feel more feminine, polished and beautiful.

PAYOT Cooling Relaxing Light Legs Gel & Marta’s Michael Kors Shoes
My recent purchase at Nordstrom shoe department just before I took off to NYC this week was MICHAEL Michael Kors Jamesport Sandal. I’m in love with these shoes! Total runway material!! But walking with these shoes 2 long blocks in New York City, and trying to party like a rock star after dinner took a toll on my feet and legs. As soon as I got back to ACE Hotel to finally unwind, I applied PAYOT Paris Cooling Relaxing Light Legs Gel on my very tried feet, legs, and thighs. And voila: Marta is feeling much better:)
Watch Marta’s video blog for the ‘evidence’ lol:)

Drugstore Superstar Products:Lubriderm Daily Moisture Line
I’m all about body lotions, and always on the look out for ‘it’ products. I’ve recently tried Lubriderm body lotions and would classify them as Drugstore superstars! If you are looking for a great body lotion that works and is affordable, check out the Lubriderm Daily Moisture Line!
Lubriderm body lotions are very hydrating without an overpowering scent. Scent and how greasy a body lotion, play major part in my purchasing decision. They are deal breakers! I like my body lotion either fragrance-free or scented very lightly. I do not want it to clash with my signature fragrance Dolce & Gabbana The One, or any fragrance I’m wearing:)
I also LOVE Lubriderm Advanced Therapy Hand Cream it’s so soothing and comforting to my hands.
I would like to introduce to you two latest Lubriderm products which are hitting the shelves this August (2009):
Lubriderm Intensive Skin Repair Ointment: Clinically shown to temporarily protect and help relive dry, chapped or cracked skin providing the long-lasting protection skin needs to heal itself like healthy skin does naturally. The lightweight, specially formulated ointment works immediately to form a protective shield on the skin to protect from frying of wind and cold weather, leaving skin hydrated and more comfortable. SRP: $4.99 1.75 oz tube.
