Reader Review of the Day: Korres Lemon Lip Scrub
I really love Korres watermelon products, but I hadn't heard much about the line's Lemon Lip Scrub ($19). The price is a little steep for a person who loses lip stuff all the time like I do, but reader laratf makes it sound so good that I might just have to try it anyway. She says:
"The most effective lip treatment I've found.
Reader Review of the Day: Korres Thyme Honey 24-Hour Moisturizing Cream
Korres Thyme Honey 24-Hour Moisturizing Cream ($32.50) sounds more like a delicious barbecue glaze than a product to me, but reader gooz1231 can't get enough of it. She says:
I love this moisturizer, although I find it can be a bit heavy. It would probably be better for normal-dry skin (I have combination skin), but it smells amazing and I crave honey with marscarpone cheese after using this.
Where In The World Are These Beauty Brands From?
Being European, we all travel a lot. It's just what we do, however, it wasn't until I was older that I really started paying attention to the industry in each of the different countries that I've visited. On a recent holiday, I was surprised to find out that one of the High Street Brands that I thought was English, is actually Greek.
Bella Brand: Kings & Queens
Greek cosmetics company Korres is branching out — royally. Its new line of bath and body products, Kings & Queens, has been developed around ingredients favored by monarchs of the past. The packaging is vibrant enough to draw you in, and the prices aren't too crazy (between $9 and $15).
Product Review: Korres Citrus Moisturizing Body Milk
Mmm, mmm masculine! The rich and fresh-scented Citrus Body Milk ($15) from Greek bath and body brand Korres is a sensory extravaganza. The smooth and creamy texture absorbs quickly, leaving your skin matte and feeling hydrated and soft.
A Few New Luxury Tinted Lip Balms
Lip balms are one of my favorite products and I always get excited when a new one makes an appearance in the marketplace — especially if it's tinted, because it feels good and it looks good. I've tried each of these new Prescriptives and Lola Cosmetics tinted balms and they all satisfy my balmy cravings.
Korres Lip Butter ($9) is an all-natural hydrating tinted lip balm that contains a high concentration of shea butter to help soothe and heal chapped lips.
Fantastic Firming Creams, Part III: Eyes
Eyes are the windows to your soul, and they are also the first tell-tale sign of your age. Firming eye products are believed to tighten the skin around your orbital area to help smooth away the appearance of fine lines. They are generally light in texture and should be applied by tapping your ring finger in a figure-eight pattern.
Valentine's Day Beauty, Part III: Alluring Fragrances
Welcome to my third installation of Valentine's Day beauty products. Not only is it important to have the perfect pout and sultry bedroom eyes on February 14th, but it's also important to smell good. According to research, men associate the smell of vanilla and cinnamon with love.
New Product Alert: Korres Color Cosmetics
Korres, the Greek line of body and skincare products, has just launched a color cosmetics collection. (I don't know how to say huzzah! in Greek, but you'll just have to imagine it.)
Like Korres skincare products, the homeopathic cosmetics are made with botanical ingredients such as cherry oil, passion fruit oil, shea butter, green tea, and vitamin E and C.
