Jennifer Lopez is presenting her new fragrance Love & Glamour which arrives on the market this Fall.
Love & Glamour was created by Honorine Blanc and Harry Fremont of Firmenich in cooperation with Lopez.

Composition opens with notes of Italian mandarin, guava and nectarine pulp. A heart incorporates water lily, coconut orchid, orange blossom absolute and jasmine petals, while a base finishes with sandalwood, sensual musk and amber. While the fragrance was being created and developed, Lopez asked the perfumers to accentuate sandalwood at least a bit more and to make the fragrance a bit sexier…

Now that the temperature is dropping and soon we will be facing winter’s freezing cold I suggest using an oil to moisturize your skin and hair.

What it is…Argan Oil is an all-natural, 100% organic, chemical-free beauty marvel that really works. Produced from the Argan tree in semi-deserts of Morocco, Argan Oil has been used by Moroccan women for centuries for it’s nutritional and cosmetic benefits.

Commonly referred to as “liquid gold” or “The Gold of Morocco”, Argan Oil is an incredibly rich source of Vitamin E and essential fatty acids. It has astonishing healing, conditioning and anti-aging properties to keep your skin and hair nourished and revitalized and to keep you looking beautiful from head to toe. Argan Oil is not only a “super food” for the skin and hair but for the whole body. Having twice as much Vitamin E as olive oil including vital antioxidants, Argan Oil plays a major role in a healthy diet and is commonly used in traditional Moroccan recipes.

A cosmetic so good and pure you could eat it? Literally? That is the ultimate in natural beauty. After all, why would we put something on our face that we would not put into our bodies?

What it does…This multi-tasking beauty can be used to:
1. Soften dry skin
Argan Oil’s naturally high concentration in Vitamin E and essential fatty acids work to alleviate dry skin and rough patches.
2. Help minimize fine lines
Smooth Argan Oil over skin and under your eyes for intense moisture and to reduce appearance of fine lines.
3. Help heal acne blemishes and scarring
With regular use, Argan Oil is widely reported to heal existing acne blemishes, prevent the occurrence of new breakouts and help reduce scarring.
4. Soften cuticles
Massage a few drops of Argan Oil onto your cuticles to soften and condition.
5. Treat split ends
Rub oil between your hands and smooth through hair to minimize fly-aways and treat split ends.
6. Give skin a fresh, youthful look
Argan Oil easily absorbs into skin to give you a youthful, dewy glow.

Ex-model JOSIE MARAN is a very good brand to try.

She wooed a president; appeared on the sleeve of the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band; got itchy with Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon in Billy Wilder’s classic romp, Some Like It Hot; and was featured on the cover of Hugh Hefner’s very first issue of Playboy. (The magazine potentate has since secured the crypt next to hers.) Now, 80 years after her birth, and 44 after her mysterious death, the potency of Marilyn Monroe’s sex-goddess image—the platinum locks, the beauty mark, the ripe figure—continues, unabated.
