FANCY FRIDAY


With the blooming flowers and newly cut grass, I love the fresh, fragrant and floral feel of Springtime. With this new season upon us, I figured it was time to purchase a new lotion scent to mimic the happy-go-lucky days ahead. In my teenage years, I would have bee-lined straight to Bath and Body Works to stock up on their Buy 2, Get 1 free deal of their signature scent "Plumeria." Didn't every young girl!?! Fast forward 18 years and the thought of that smell makes me want to barf. No offense to anyone who still rocks the "I can smell you from a mile away" Plumeria scent.

During my weekly Target run I swung by the lotion aisle, tested out a few but walked out empty handed. My next stop - Planet Beauty. As I stood in line waiting to purchase some hair product, I pumped the tester bottle of Hempz Herbal Moisturizing Lotion's newest scent - POMEGRANATE. O-K. Done deal. The smell is delicious. I've been using the Original Hempz lotion scent for years but this was a step above and the Spring scent I was on the hunt for. And that is what tickled my fancy this week!!


If you are unfamiliar with Hempz's products, I highly encourage you to try them out. They are super hydrating without leaving your skin feeling greasy. The 17 oz bottle will run you about $20 but a little goes a long way. You will stay soft and smelling yummy for over 12 hours. Hempz carries a complete line of products that utilize the natural benefits of Pure Organic Hemp Seed Oil to nourish, moisturize, protect and condition the skin. Each formula contains Antioxidants, Key Amino Acids, several Vitamins, Minerals and Botanical Extracts to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and helps heal and renew skin. Hemp Seed Oil is nature’s best source of Essential Fatty Acids perfectly balanced for optimum human absorption. All Hempz products are Paraben Free, Gluten Free, THC-Drug Free and 100% Vegan.

Anything tickle your fancy this week? I'd love to hear!!

Tame the Tum: Spare tire or stress bulge?

For many women, getting bikini ready means tackling one dreaded area in particular — our tummies. Most of us still think the best way to achieve a washboard stomach is by doing hundreds of sit-ups. Not so, says A-list trainer and body guru James Duigan. James, who sculpts supermodels Elle Macpherson and Rosie Huntingdon-Whiteley among others, insists there is no ‘one size fits all’ method for getting a flat belly. Instead, he’s identified five key ‘tummy types,’ all of which require a different approach to achieve successful toning. Once you figure out your tummy type (mine is the STRESS BELLY) thanks to the UK Daily Mail , you'll be on your way to getting the perfect midriff... THE SPARE TIRE TUMMY The spare tire: This is one of the easiest tummy troubles to eliminate because it's caused by eating the wrong foods and not exercising enough. HOW TO IDENTIFY THIS TYPE These people are likely to lead sedentary lives, perhaps with jobs that k
