Written by meredith / News / April 25, 2013

oh Glymm-how you’ve swindled and scammed your subscribers so……

A lovely email recently landed in my inbox and I had to share-for all my sisters that are still feeling the sting of Glymm-

Nail Polish Canada is offering a *free* beauty box (up to $25.00 value) for former Glymm subscribers.  All you have to do is send them the (horrendous) email recently sent to you by Glymm telling you their company is no more-and if you’re like me, you received that email AFTER they had charged you for the April beauty box! GAH!

*Please note-if you opt to just get the beauty box, you will be charged $3.00 for shipping and handling…..BUT if you are purchasing additional items from Nail Polish Canada, the box is yours free (no shipping).

Sounds good? A little (well-deserved) redemption? Me thinks so!

Enjoy ladies-the weight of the Glymm saga is off of your beautiful shoulders! Stand tall (and grab your free beauty box from Nail Polish Canada)!

Gift idea for the beauty in YOUR life! Villianess Warming Body Cream – Dulce En Fuego: Whipped (Sugar & Chocolate)

Written by meredith / News / November 28, 2012

I am a gourmand fragrance fan-I love to smell like things that are good enough to eat (let your mind go where it wants).  When I saw this duo, I knew I had to have-it reminds me of cinnamon and sugar doughnuts that I used to buy off the street in South Korea or get at the Ex.  It’s that good.

I’m sure the beauty in your life would love to smell delicious!

What it is:

Velvety Body Cream – Warming
Whipped! body creme is thick and stiff, yet light and quite soluble – much like edible whipped heavy cream.

A heavy moisture content for your dry skin, enough oils to create a breathable emollient barrier, and has a velvety-soft afterfeel. You’ll love it.
Size: 170 g

What it is:

Extra-decadent cherry kernel oil, antioxidant rich grapeseed oil, light coconut oil, and our favourite luxury mango butter.

SCENT: Musky bitter chocolate sweetened with vanilla and touches of citrus then positively inflamed with black pepper and nutmeg.

Warming Body Cream-Dulce En Fuego: Whipped (Sugar & Chocolate) retails for $15.75 CAD and can be purchased on Glymm.com or villianess.net.

*please note-they actually JUST POSTED a peppermint/candy cane fragrance.*

Gift ideas for the beauty in YOUR life- websites to shop!

Written by meredith / News / November 24, 2012

Hey not everyone loves the thrill of shopping-especially during the busy holiday season.  If you’re the type of person who would rather sit in front of the _______ (insert your favorite place here) fireplace, television, Xbox, then how about using your mouse to shop for the beauties on your list?

Some of my favorite websites for beauty products:

The Shopping Channel.com You can’t go wrong here.  They have EVERYTHING-not just beauty.  Prices are competitive and shipping is QUICK.  I have bought everything from sheets to footwear to apparel to jewelry to makeup and have rarely been disappointed.  The return policy is a snap and customer service is hassle free!

ebeauty.ca  In my opinion, this is the Shopping Channel for beauty products.  Great selection, fantastic pricing, and terrific promotions (check out my post on their gift bag). This site has items that I’ve never heard of until I’ve clicked!  Quick shipping and easy returns.

nailpolishcanada.com  This is for all the nail polish people! I didn’t know there were that many different kinds of polish and nail accessories until I visited this site.  Best of all-this site is up on all the latest trends, has great pricing, and fast shipping.  They will occasionally host fantastic contests with drool-worthy prizes!  P.S. This is the site to visit if you’re looking for ‘popular’ polish or polish not easily accessible in Canada.

Glymm.com  This is a subscription box service that also has an online store (with full size products from the Glymm box).  I like this site because they have unique items that I wouldn’t know of unless I was specifically looking for them.  Shipping is not as quick as I would like but they manage in a decent amount of time.  Check this site for ‘luxury’ beauty products.

There you have it…some of my favorite sites to make crossing the names off of your gift list even easier!  Even though the selection is great and shipping IS quick, don’t delay.  The holidays are practically here!
