Hi Everyone Check this out if you are in the area you should definitely participate http://www.islandsfashionweek.com/

this product is a favorite of mine. It is slightly on the high end side but it is worth it . Clarins is a product that will make your skin feel beautiful. In Jamaica we can only seem to get them at the duty free shops on the coast but when I was in Negril I had to stock up on it , Their line of beauty treatments ensures that their is something for everyone. I used to be a fan of Clinique , but if you love your skin , give the Clarins line a try

I checked out Bridget's Sandals the other day and they are still fabulous if you are into sandals that are classy and dressy or bohemian check it out http://www.bridgetsandals.com/

There are some nice soaps made in Jamaica with medicinal properties , I suggest if you enjoy experimenting with soaps and lotions you try wholefood body care company its based in Discovery Bay in St Ann. They have a lemongrass soap that is simply refreshing as well as some other goodies. Blue Mountain aromatics has a great coconut lotion that I use to soothe my skin especially my feet they also have a brilliant cerasee soap which is really good for cooling down mosquito bites. http://www.wholefoodbodycare.com/wholesale_.html unfortunately Blue Mountain Aromatics seems to not to have a website but if you are interested please leave a comment and i will find the phone number or email for them

Sometimes we don't have to buy expensive remedies to treat our skin. Case in point Dudu Osun Black Soap . I was introduced to this in New York years ago. Dudu Soap is black and is specially formulated entirely from natural ingredients and herbs, this soap will have you feeling refreshed and silky smooth. Restores damaged skin and is helpful in healing chronic eczema, acne, freckles and dark spots. Scented with Osun ( Cam wood extract) citrus juices and native honey. With Aloe Vera and natural vitamins. For awhile I couldn't find it in Jamaica but most beauty supplies sell it as well as the natural herbal stores . its ugly but it is definitely a beauty tool .
