Help Save the Tigers

Posted by Sophie on November 14, 2008

I’m very compassionate and have a special love for animals… especially felines including my two little kitties at home.

The wild tiger population has been diminishing over time due to poaching & habitat destruction.  Many of the wild feline species are now endangered and they may disappear forever.  I don’t even want to imagine a world without tigers!

So, I want to inform you about this Chantecaille Le Tigre Bengali Bronzer.  As part of the purchase, 5% of the proceeds of the sale will benefit TRAFFIC - the wildlife trade monitoring network to help save the tigers.  Truly where beauty meets compassion!

This gorgeous face bronzer is embossed with the image of a tiger… so precious!  Comes in a sleek gold compact with a luxurious natural-bristled brush.

The Le Tigre Bengali Palette (the most beautiful palette ever!) and another tiger compact, the White Tiger Pressed Powder will also help the charity with 5% proceeds as well.

Chanel N°5 Eau Première

Posted by Sophie on September 16, 2008

Chanel N°5 has been reincarnated into EAU PREMIÈRE. This fragrance will go on top of my current wish list! I recently tested a sample of this remarkable perfume Chanel N°5 Eau Première and it’s so addictive that I’ve been sniffing it like a loony. LOL! I’m in love!

I was never fond of the original Chanel N°5 which has been around since the early 20’s. The original version is too powdery and a bit overpowering for my liking. I don’t even like other Chanel fragrances - Coco, Chance or Allure. However, Eau Premiere is so special, it has all the good qualities of Chanel N°5 yet it’s more sheer, refreshing, seductive and incredibly sophisticated! It’s a lighter, youthful version of Chanel N°5… with a hint of sweet lemon? Definitely a year round perfume that you can wear daily.

I feel like such a stylish fashionista when I put it on. Be prepared for tons of compliments, it’s that good! The fragrance was originally introduced in late 2007 but was temporarily pulled back due to a “bottle problem” and now they are back. The 5oz bottle is available for $125 at department stores.

Here is a helpful fragrance Do’s & Don’ts from Chanel.

Not sure if you gals subscribe to Marie Claire but in this month’s issue (with Eva Mendes on the cover :) they have a section on beauty buys. The Fresh Black Tea Instant Perfecting Mask really caught my eye and looks so yummy and healthy and is supposed to brighten and soften the skin dramatically!
