Natty Baby Spa Care

  Wonderfully scented, soft and delicate, made with botanical and essential oils, and healing natural butters. Natty Baby products...baby will love them, and so will you.

I've always been attracted to the light scents and ingredients of baby products...and Natty Baby products are definitely lovable..  I have been using the Bath and Massage Oil since it arrived. It immediately turns your skin silky smooth, scented with soothing lavender, calming mandarin, and a hint of fresh peaches. I'd suggest using a few drops in your bath water.

My babies are all grown, but it doesn't matter, because they work just as well for us adults. They offer a wide variety of sweet-smelling, natural products...oils, lotions, balms, powders. ..and blended daily. And the packaging is as sweet as the goodies inside...cute little lavender polka-dotted ribbons adorn each piece.

They offer a Natty Girl line as well...hopefully we'll have the opportunity to review that line in the near future!

Natty Baby offers a "My First Spa Kit" that every baby, and mommy, would love. Priced at $69.

Alpha Derma CE

The proof is in the testimonials. Page after page of success stories regarding the amazing results people have acheived by using AlphaDerma CE. And we agree.

First of all, Janson Beckett is the company that develops this high-end anti-aging botox alternative, and we LOVE this company. They were awesome to work with. Lou Martelli was good enough to send enough samples for our entire staff to review...hey, all the women reviewers were fighting over this one. Anti-aging? Reduces wrinkles? Botox alternative? We all wanted it!

This product is exciting, and it does work.

AlpaDerma CE utilizes a 10% concentration of Argireline...a wrinkle correcting peptide. It works by lessening the frequency and intensity of common muscle movemnets...thus decreasing wrinkle depth, and even preventing future wrinkle formation.

We noticed that it not only decreased wrinkles, but it also was unbelievably moisturizing, and it was almost immediately evident that it was working to firm the skin as well. With eight potent ingredients, there is nothing like it on the market. Just ask us. Just look at us.

Offered at $125 at Janson-Beckett, and better than Botox!

PS: C'mon, Lou....we'd love to try your Anti-Cellulite Treatment...oh, if it could only work as well as as the Alpha Derma :>)

Solay Wellness Products

This is one of the most unique and interesting companies we have had the pleasure of reviewing. I have spent a good deal of my life studying and researching the benefits and healing properties of things found in nature...plants, herbs, and in this case, salt. Uh, huh...salt.

Solay Wellness offers a wonderful healing line of salt-based wellness products, including bath, beauty and personal care products, cleaners, candles and pet care. Their most popular item and the one we received to review is their "raved about" Salt Lamps.

Have you walked outside after a rainstorm, when the air is clean and fresh? Have you sat alongside a glistening lake and felt a sense of renewal? This is in part due to the negative ions in the atmosphere, and Solay Wellness has discovered a way to provide these negative ions into our personal atmosphere by designing these beautiful salt lamps.  The ions that the lamps give off  have a refreshing and energizing effect, helping to purify the air and thereby benefiting the people and pets breathing that air. The lamps and ions are odorless, but can have a dramatic effect.

Frequent exposure to the negative ions can dramatically increase an individual's energy, mental alertness, and overall sense of well-being.

The lamps themselves are really beautiful with the appearance of a large crystal, emitting a soft warm glow.

Their website offers an extensive library of information that I would recommend checking ...truly interesting, and possibly life-altering.

Breathe easier...feel better...live healthier. Visit Solay Wellness.

Nox Lumen Candles

There are candles…and then there are candles. Nox Lumen candles are some of the nicest candles we have run across. Handpoured, deep, rich mottled gem colors…and scents that carry you away. Each candle has its own unique individuality, and is infused with high concentrations of both color and scent.

Nox Lumen is a boutique manufacturer, not a mass producer, and the care that they put into their candles immediately becomes obvious. Their candles are created with solid fragrance and color throughout…so what you experience the first time you light them are exactly what you’ll experience throughout the life of the candle.

Nox Lumen actually evaluated several hundred fragrances before choosing the ones you will fall in love with. Here are some of our favorites: Aqua Pacificus…fresh mango, pineapple and coconut wrapped around hints of violet, jasmine and hibiscus..a true island experience.  . Bamboo Elixir…vanilla orchid, with kumquat and passion fruit…ought to make a cocktail after that one. Oriental Spice…mandarin and night blooming jasmine, with touches of lily and orchid, sandalwood and incense.

Please do visit their website to discover the many other choices they offer. And be sure to visit often and they will be expanding their fragrance line, and also adding votives and melts in acrylic boxes, and container candles. A company to watch, for sure!
