From the seeds of the rare Roucouyer tree, comes the best tanning oil to get dark fast. For the longest time it was only ever available on the Caribbean Island of St Barts, being kept as an Island secret. Made from Roucou seeds which contain a natural provitamin A, it helps stimulate the production of melanin, which accelerates the tanning process. The tanning oil does double duty, acting as a sunburn soother and mosquito repellent. Perfect for summer and winter sports, it is UVA/UVB protected, also being non-greasy and doesn’t block pores. Vitamin E, almond oil, and Calendula extract keep the skin smooth. Formulated for those who tan easily, it’s suitable for outdoors, or sun beds as well. Designed to elongate and rapidly develop sun tanned skin.

Best body scrub ever Fresh brown sugar body polish. Brown sugar polish is one of my heavenly splurge purchases items. So much so it remains a staple, and the two of us are not going anywhere! After having heard how wonderful it was from friends, I took the indulgent plunge and have never looked back. Hands down Fresh has the most luxurious scrub / polish on the market, and I’m gonna tell you why. Salt scrubs DRY out the skin just like the ocean. Sugar does not dry you out, and is still able to exfoliate you BETTER than salt. Visualize a grain of salt and visualize a grain of brown sugar. Salt is smaller, and it dissolves quicker. Real brown sugar crystals & natural humectants that prevent moisture loss while gently buffing away dry skin cells. A simple blend of evening primrose, sweet almond, apricot kernel, and jojoba that nourish the skin and deeply moisturize dry areas. Ginseng root extract and peppermint to invigorate, while Citrus oils brighten & tone the skin. There literally is nothing else like it. Use it once a week, or once a month. Its your indulgence, and indulge however you want. YOU are worth it 🙂 14.1 oz.

Oprah approved quality fragrance NEST Midnight Fleur eau de parfum. We take smelling for granted. In the novel Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, we learn about a scent-less man born into 18th century Paris. A person who has no smell, but can smell others greatly. It is a fascinating story that is a MUST read. So imagine if you had no smell? Well luckily there is Midnight Fleur Eau de Parfum. Like the packaging, the scent is rather beautiful. NEST Fine Fragrances worked with the industry’s most talented master perfumers, to compose a complex and alluring fine fragrance. The parfum is composed of exotic woods, patchouli, black amber and night-blooming jasmine. As seen in The Oprah Magazine Oct 2012. The artwork is simple & elegant to suggest to quality & complexity of the aromas. 3.4 oz/100ml.

Amazing Grace Deodorant by the brand Philosophy, makes me think of the song Amazing Grace. “T’was Grace that taught my heart to fear, and Grace my fears relieved, How precious did that Grace appear, the hour I first believed.” This is the moment, you come to the realization that it WAS worth the $12 investment. It’s infused with vitamin E, it’s an antiperspirant, It’s also lightly scented, so it does not over-power any sensitive environments. It’s also an easy addition if you are already a Philosophy fan. Amazing Grace is great for when you want better pampering. This is the one I use because it makes me feel amazing, and my name isn’t even Grace.
