Embrace Spring!

Congratulations, readers, you’ve made it!  March 20th marks the first day of Spring 2011.  Embrace the new season with Beauty of a Site!

1. Wear Green.

The most prominent sign of the new season is the hints of green popping up all over the country.  Whether for your favorite St. Patty’s day party or just for celebrating the season, green celebrates new growth and new chances.  It’s an essential part of your wardrobe!

Try OPI’s Don’t Mess with OPI, from the Texas Collection, Zoya’s Gemma, or China Glaze’s Starboard from Anchor’s Away, for a chic green hue.

2. Welcome Florals.

More than any other season, Spring has its very own smell. Even before the flowers start blooming, get rid of winter’s musty smell with fresh florals of your own!

Choose Kai’s Room and Linen spray for hawaiian-inspired freshness, or this lily-scented candle from Aunt Sadie!

3. Bring on the sun!

Warmer weather, short sleeves and flip flops are not far off.  Prepare your skin for the challenge: scrub up, moisturize and bring on the bronze!

We suggest Cake’s Soothing Sugar Scrub, Get Fresh Rich Body Creme and at home tanning from St. Tropez.

Needing the Sun? Try St. Tropez

We’re about done with the drab rainy weather we’re enduring here in Illinois, so we’re turning our thoughts to sunny beaches, relaxation and Spring Break. In preparation, we’ve all started our daily self-tanning regiments so that we’re looking beautiful and bronzed by the time we take off for the islands.

Our self tanning regiment of choice is, unanimously, the range of St. Tropez. Forget “turning orange” or gross hands or streaks, lines or splotches. Using a truly unique and professional formulation, St. Tropez’ tanning lotions and whipped bronzers create an even and natural looking tan, every time. The neatest part is that St. Tropez offers a variety of products that give lighter tans or darker tans, quicker tans or gradual tans with special products for legs, face or body.

For the month of March, receive a FREE St. Tropez Everyday Airbrush (usually $36) with any $50 St. Tropez order. Order soon; our supplies are limited!

St. Tropez Tanning Products

Saint Tropez Tanning Products are ready to transform your pasty winter skin into a glowing summer tan! Getting ready for Spring Break, or just wanting to get a head start on looking good in your summer attire? Inspired by the luxurious city of Saint Tropez, France, this line of tanning enhancement products can make you look and feel affluently connected to the city’s beautiful French beaches. I sure wish we all could visit the south of France every year to get a great tan and some much needed R & R, or at least live somewhere other than the Midwest; instead, we have to settle for the next best thing – self-tanner!

Worried about looking orange? Put your fears aside – self-tanner has come a long way and St. Tropez’s formula guarantees a streakless bronze with their three step Auto-Bronzant Instant Self-Tanning line of products. Step-by-step St. Tropez walks you through using their Body Polish exfoliant, Hydrating lotion, and Whipped Bronze Instant Self-Tanning Mousse.

More interested in airbrushing? St. Tropez also offers Everyday Airbrush – an easy way to apply professional spray tan without having to visit the salon.

Still worried your bronze will be a bust? I know I kind of freak whenever I take on big beauty projects, but it usually subsides after I consult the experts. Check out our article on Sunless Tanning Tips here!
